zhonglis so funny bc he's always saying hes just a normal guy now but when you ask anyone about him they just talk about how unnormal he is

#.1 am #genshin impact #zhongli #he sticks out so much everyone knows him people probably recognize him more than the public adeptus in liyue harbor #its so funny i love him #yes hes 7ft tall to me. he doesnt know the standard average human height still #i didnt want to ramble but i think even in incognito as other people people still saw him as an oddball. #some weird guy that popped out of nowhere that works odd jobs and makes up stories to mess with merchants

Our friend with the new dog is obviously very emotional right now. She chose a border collie husky mix as her first dog ever and didn’t do any reading. She was just so excited to have a buddy that she didn’t think about some of the harder aspects of dog ownership like acclimating to existing pets or training.

Since my betrothed and I literally just had the puppy blues we definitely understood. When we went over to work with her and see where Harbor the dog was at. She was obviously overwhelmed with all the new aspects of her life. On a walk she’d lunge to and fro at bikes, other dogs, crows. Her ears didn’t even twitch toward her owner at attempts to get her attention.

I suggested we go home and work with her in the backyard. Our friend had been trying to use the dogs kibble as training rewards and I was like. What do you have that’s stinkier because she won’t even take these as a gift let alone a reward.

Turned out our friend did have some treats. In the living room I put Harbor through her paces. She knew all her basic commands and performed them easily in the quiet environment for the promise of a treat. But her name recognition and recall were shaky, along with her leash manners.

So I got us into the backyard and did a demo for my friend on how to teach heeling on the leash. Our friend cried when she watched the flighty unmanageable dog fall into step beautifully beside me, focused on me and the treat I could offer for good behavior.

Then I had us play a recall game where we all had treats and scattered around the yard. Harbor could go wherever she wanted but if we called her name and she looked at us or came over we’d give her a treat.

I told our friend not to do neighborhood walks for the first week, but just to practice heeling in the backyard and name recognition without any big distractions. Then at the end of the week I could come back and do a short neighborhood walk and see how they go. I suggested coming over weekly to help them work together.

Our friend cried again and hesitated. I said, “I’m sorry if I’ve overstepped- if you don’t want that…”

“No! It’s just that I can’t pay you.”

I was flabbergasted that she’d even think of paying us. I reassured her I didn’t need to be paid and that I liked working with her and Harbor for fun. I may not be able to have a dog of my own, and my betrothed has to wear a respirator on visits, but it’s nice working with a dog again in some capacity.

#ramblies #harbor definitely doesn’t love us and probsbly won’t #she’s definitely a one person dog #but she minds her manners and that’s what counts

Post-Crooked Kingdom Kaz having to reckon with the fact that his life long quest for revenge on Pekka Rollins has actually just made him more miserable, and even though now it’s fulfilled and Rollins has paid for what he did, Kaz is still right where he was at the start: an angry, abandoned boy who misses his brother, except now he’s no longer alone is something that can be SO personal actually

#thinking about Kaz hours……….. #I start 🚬🍷🤠 #no but literally like #him thinking in the harbor ‘he had to live. someone had to pay’ and now Rollins has paid and his entire goal in life is fulfilled #what do you do now??? how do you go on #I need SOC III NOW #Leigh please 🙏 #six of crows #betsey rambles #kaz brekker

Oh my god. The end of the route with Venti. Kaeya slipping away because he’s not a follower of Barbatos and thinks that means he’s not a true son of Mond. Venti essentially telling Kaeya and Traveler point-blank that he’s tired of losing the people he cares about before the ending (I think he’s alluding to the nameless bard’s death before he got to see New Mondstadt + maybe the Ragnvindr ancestor leaving before the same). The poem and exchange at the end where Venti tries to tell Kaeya that it doesn’t matter that he doesn’t follow him and is from Khaenri’ah, he’ll bless him all the same (and what a thing to say to a descendant of the godless nation)!! I am also specifically losing my mind over this line

(Yeah he sure does have stars in his eyes, and the Abyss euphemism is NOT subtle. Kaeya admitted in Caribert that he doesn’t want to be connected to the Abyss, and the poem as a whole is Venti describing Kaeya’s struggle with who he’s meant to be and his fate)

And this one

The thought of not having to live forever in struggle over his identity under the shadow of the legacy his ancestors have left him, and being able to choose the dawn—I can’t help but think this is intentional; the dawn is widely used as a symbol of new beginnings, but it’s got to also be representative of his adoptive family (especially Diluc, whose name origin diluculum apparently means dawn) which is closely associated with dawn.

#I still have two endings left so fingers crossed the brothers get to talk #give us some lore. tell us about your childhood. did your dad ever bring you guys on vacation to sumeru after kaeya’s ill-planned adventure #also the whole safe harbor thing. yes it could just be venti’s respect for mortals but also he loves kaeya as much as he loves everyone else #in mond okay that is his boy. #do not boo me #anyway. good night if anyone needs me I’m going to be crying myself to sleep #liveblogging #mine #rambles #genshin spoilers #kaeya hangout spoilers #genshin #genshin impact #kaeya alberich #venti

so about the new ishmael ego

I like her. I could say more but that would be another post. Look at the background. This part specifically.

There's a private beach roped off here. It looks pristine compared to the polluted waters Ishmael's boat is in. Hell, the water is green over here.

Makes me wonder if sections of the lake are roped off for nest-dwellers only. And these beaches are kept clean, meanwhile on the other side of the ropes, the beach seems to be an industrial waste dumping ground.

#limbus company #i live near the great lakes so in the summer we'd go to lake michigan a lot and. the people who own private beaches do rope them off. #and would also dump their trash on the public beach #and even when they put trash cans on the beach the people who had private beaches would dump so much that they'd usually be overflowing #IF YOU'RE RICH ENOUGH TO OWN A PRIVATE BEACH USE YOUR OWN TRASH CAN #especially if you're going to yell at any children who go a foot past your fucking “private property no trespassing” sign #i harbor a great deal of spite for people who own beach houses or lake houses #like yeah i bet you have a second house that you never shut up about. i get it you have money. #... i think these random unrelated rambles in the tags are just a feature of my original posts now

Ironing out the backstory for Elliot's grandmother Amelia, and how she escaped the Hill, since it might be relevant for the chapter We're about to write. :)

#she did bad things! #but I don't think she really deserved what happened to her in order to get out #after everything she harbored a deep resentment for the Hill. One her daughter shared and moved far far away from #'s why she lived in the city :) #sleep rambles #my art #2024 #alderhill #alderhill spoilers #I hope I can convey this info through the writing because I think it slots in really nicely to the timeline of events #EDIT: aughhh wrote this part out actually and it's heavy. I hope I handled the subject matter decently

"Curlfeather was still smug when she visited Frostpaw from the Dark Forest"

Frostpaw realized that she had never received any real visions, therefore meaning that her "vision" of Curlfeather was most likely fake as well. There are plenty of actual things that Curlfeather did that were bad, but this is not one of them. Please criticize for things she actually did

"Curlfeather never cared about Frostpaw at all". You can be emotionally abusive toward someone and still care about them. They are not mutually exclusive.

"Curlfeather only wanted power!" Yes, she did want power, but she also believed it was a righteous cause. (and she was actually partially correct. Mistystar WAS a bad leader. StarClan IS corrupt and incompetent.)

Remember when people were thinking she murdered her mate before the Wind excerpt came out because they only saw her as a "evil woman" with no depth.

If you actually want to see someone she manipulated and never cared about, look at Splashtail. She picked him out as an apprentice and then groomed him from a young age so he would help her rise to power and would kill Reedwhisker for her. She also threatened to turn on him which ended up being one of the reasons he ends up killing her. (It was also the effect of him becoming more radicalized than her, spelling out her own demise.)

She is an absolutely fascinating character. Please do not reduce her to "heartless woman who is pure evil". Recognizing morally complex characters =/= excusing their actions

#this was originally a tags ramble #but i thought it deserved to go in the main post #interesting that the fandom thinks a woman (esp a mother) is inherently completely evil. definitely couldn't be bc of misogyny /s #curlfeather #warrior cats #warriors #wc #a starless clan #asc #frostpaw #frostpaw asc #splashtail #harbor's posts

played Artificer's campain to completion then booted up Rivulet's and immidately got a WILD, probably thinking too hard about it theroy based soley on Rivulet's intro

SO -clap sfx-

Riv's intro goes like

-offscreen explosion noise- , then Rivulet and a dead Scavenger fall from the ceiling

i need to go back and check, but im pretty sure one of Arti's pups was light blue, so i think Rivulet is one of Artificer's Pups that somehow Survived

[alloaro-azelf]

9 times out of 10, when asked, “if you could choose your orientation, would you still be alloaro?” I’d say, “yes!” I’ve learned so many life lessons due to being alloaro, and I wouldn’t be myself without those experiences

but damn, there are days I wish I was alloallo. I feel it most with my fwb. using pet names doesn’t come naturally to me, receiving kisses is a very 😬 gesture that I tolerate at best, and I keep worrying that my (re)actions will be interpreted as romantic even tho I’m explicit about being aromantic. it would just be easier if he and I were on the same page 😓

ughhh,, romance repulsion just be like 🤢🤢🤢

Im’ma message fwb now and remind him that I’m v aro and romance repulsed bc haha what if he thinks he can ✨ turn me allo ✨ I would literally lose my shit

#he does harbor romantic fellings for me btw;;; #azelf’s irl rambles #alloaro #aroallo #aro #aromantic

[melodyofthevoid]

Considering doing another Crane Wives analysis but this time talking about the shared symbolism between many of their songs.

#I have. thoughts about ships. #melody rambles #it may take a minute it's kinda vague musings but #the prevalence of ash and blood and wolves and disaster #alongside the manmade of cigarettes and ships and harbors and anchors #idk
