the way the most recent pokemon games don't let you turn off the exp share or the affection mechanic bonuses is nothing short of maddening. i think they make great accessibility features If Only They Were Optional and the flavour text is cute, but i want to have a fun casual playthrough that's at least mildly challenging without having to make it a nuzlocke or something. i don't want to feed my starter bitter medicines to make her hate me :(

#JUST LET ME TURN IT OFF... PLEASE.... #i can't do nuzlockes i do Not have the willpower to stick to the rules and they stress me out haha #anyway i am a fool who's left all of my DS games in norway and i got a hankering for replaying sinnoh games #so i decided to get shining pearl right. figured it might be fun even if ill miss the 4th gren spritework something fierce #what ensued was a needlessly complicated process just to get a copy that was slightly cheaper than full price nintendo blood money #there's a store that listed shining pearl at a lower price. not brilliant diamond - just pearl #i feel like maybe it's by mistake since that's the price of a nintendo DS cartridge. so maybe wires got crossed #the norwegian version of the store does NOT have the price disparity. #anyway i can't order online without a swedish phone number. and the local store is out of stock #so i have several long walks to the store to get them to order it in for me and then to order it delivered to me etc #and then of course another long walk to pick up the mail BUT I HAVE IT NOW. I HAVE VIDEO GAME #and it's very nice and nostalgic with a couple quality of life upgrades #my first pokemon game was pokemon diamond. when i got it i was still learning english and had no idea what was happening at any time #good times good times #obviously no pokemon run is ever gonna be as challenging as my first ever run #it does not need to be! u can immediately tell that a lot of difficulty in earlier games is that leveling up your team was a hassle #and almost always required grinding. i do not miss that at all ! but the remakes seem to be Extremely Faithful #so they're not rly structured around how fast you can level your whole team #or that your pokemon are gonna start doing extra crits or hold on to last HP before u even get to the third gym #OH WELL #you know what's very exciting for me though. i have a misdreavous!!! they're pearl exclusive and not in platinum #ive always wanted to do a sinnoh run with a misdreavous on my team for some reason

there is a sadness that permeates ofmd s2. it feels post apocalyptic in an uncomfortably real way. there are a lot of beautiful, painful moments. it reminds me of my early 20s and the friends i had, who eventually moved or drifted away.

like, there was a golden time when things are simple and you were there but you missed it. you didnt stop and appreciate it. or maybe it was never that simple, and it's just the nostalgia making you feel that way. but youre different now or maybe youre the same but everyone else is different, and youve all been through so much, youve lost people and youve hurt each other in ways that were casual and careless but caused ripples that shifted things in a frustratingly, achingly imperceptible way you dont even know how to fix. and now you have new people, and maybe some of the same people, and you keep trying but you cant recapture those golden moments of the past because it was lightening in a bottle. so you just have to keep going and in five years you'll look back at this moment right now and think, man. those were the good times. and everything is different now.

#ed and stede's 'ending' makes me the saddest of all of it tbh #like that right there is the real bittersweet part #ofmd s2 spoilers #it just all makes my chest ache #and in a meta way #the place i was at in my life is so different but so similar to where i am now #when s1 aired vs now i mean #and that time seems so nostalgic and simple when i KNOW it wasnt #but i miss it and i miss my friends #and season two was good #not perfect but good #rushed but so many good moments #idk what im trying to say! #ofmd #our flag means death

having media literacy and being critical and discerning of the media you consume is so awesome when it leads to a deeper understanding of and connection to the media.

then sometimes it makes you realize that the thing you like is actually full of some of the most wretched shit humanity is capable of. like absolutely nothing in there is safe it's all built on rotten foundations.

is that fucked up or what

#not ship related #ahaha can anyone guess what im feeling weirdly nostalgic abaout again #y'all. leans my elbows on the table and folds my hands #the burnout has been killing me. i haven't been doing shit lately to be honest #full disclosure i've started to realize i worked myself to the bone most of this year. it is coming back to bite me in the ass #my mental health is craaazy right now man like i am all over the place #but all this to say. hoping to create more soon. at MY pace #perfectionism be damned my boy can make art #anyway #peachyrambles

lying in the dark listening to an amapiano mix and the rain, with the cool humid air coming in, and like. a lot of things are bad right now, but not this

#a whole lot of sadbad feelings and inchoate incoherent thoughts lately but like. #right at this very moment we're just. sticking a pin in all that and having a hilary duff - come clean.mp3 interlude #tiny little nightswimming polaroid of a time. etc etc #(how many extremely dated references can you put into one post. but shhh) #(also secretly this post is like. web weaving with the mood of a pome i wrote in high school but like. good luck describing a pome.) #(that could of course be my cue to plunge into like. aching nostalgic high school feelings bc like. #embarrassing but in many ways that WAS the last time i got emotionally supported enough to do things i care abt in any serious way #which sounds absurd i realize bc. high school. but like. my personal experience of my personal high school WAS serious and special #largely due to a small handful of extremely magical and beloved teachers who were extremely good to me #and now i'm just. molly grue voice.) #(however! i am DECLINING to go down that rabbit hole tonight. we are not doing it. #dark. rain. music. no thoughts no feelings. just being.) #(telling myself that very firmly & repeatedly until it sticks.)

learning about a chronic illness my mom has and feeling so surreal reading about symptoms because I have almost all of them and... we really can't escape from being a picture of our mothers can we

#i just feel nostalgic #everything about medicine feels so nostalgic knowing my mom almost made it to where i am right now #that quote that goes oh you're everything i could end up being and i am everything you could have been #like all the people that say i look like her and all the pictures where we look alike #damn i really am like her #inside and out and in hair and in eyes and in crooked posture and in always tired #surely one day my queer ass will be a disgrace to this family but even then #even then I'll be the spitting image of her #makes it all kinda bittersweet (i should go to therapy)

Since there’s no more BCS this week or ever, you’ll have to suffer through some brief sappy THOUGHTS instead. But last week after the finale I went to go visit my parents and they asked me how the BCS finale was, and I was all like “when I last saw you I was still a girl, but now I return to you a woman.”

And I was just trying to be melodramatic and funny, but then thought about it more, and that is kind of what it feels like to me??? Breaking Bad just consumed my early twenties, I fell in love with it immediately, and it was also what made me finally try writing fan fiction, and then try writing my own things, because all I wanted to do was write something as good as that. I was about to say it was such a creative ‘spark’, but let’s be real, it was a furnace. And then Better Call Saul has carried me THROUGH my twenties, and unlike Breaking Bad (which I binged), I got to grow with it and watch it in real time every year, see it get deeper and more nuanced with every season as it peeled back layers, falling more and more in love with it each new season. And then finally last week we got to watch it all come together and coalesce into one of the most stunning, thoughtful, poignant, mature, bittersweet, breathtaking, and beautiful shows of all time, and it really does feel like a full-circle end of an era.

BrBa and BCS have meant so much to me in different ways, and I’ve never grown with art in quite the same way as those two stories. They’re the ultimates for me. I know it’s unbelievably sappy, but I can’t not say thank you to both shows and everyone involved in making them for being so generous in sharing how they do it. It’s really been such a special ride <3

#like i turned 30 this year but that was not the end of my 20s....the BCS finale was </3 #i was just there watching the credits all teary lol and flashing back to when i watched the brba finale in that very room #which was incredibly emotional because i knew i'd just seen something really special #and it really felt very full circle closure in that moment where i know they're a part of me and it's okay i can step off the ride now #(after the appropriate period of re-binging and analysis and posting theories and freaking out of course!) #(and i really am so glad i managed to get a BCS fic in under the wire lol it wouldn't have felt RIGHT that was just so fun/nostalgic to do) #hey i SAID i'd be sappy lol #but yeah just such formative shows for me #and actuallly brba for your early 20s and bcs for verge-of-30s feels like a very apt metaphor somehow lol #binging brba was like pounding back shots of tequila and red bull and squeezing lime juice into your eyes #going into the bathroom sweaty and shaking to throw up and them coming right back out to continue #whereas BCS is like enjoying a really good bottle of wine over a long period of time and savouring every glass #until you get to the bottom of the bottle and realize it was laced with fucking speed asdfghj #but yeah it really does feel like the end of an era and it's been amazing <3 #feeling very 'now what' but in a good way <3 #like it's good! we had it!! and it was the greatest!! #shares

My older brother is living with me for a few months before he gets married. I woke up last friday morning to him playing electric guitar, something that hasn't happened since I was in high school and we both still lived at home. It was one of the same songs I heard him play nearly every day from 7th grade until he left for college when i had just turned 17. I'm nearly 22 now, and before I opened my eyes last friday morning, for a moment it was 2017 and nothing bad had happened to me yet, nothing had changed. time moves on and you can never go back but sometimes before you open your eyes, it feels like nothing ever changed

#this isn't poetry #but its just me writing #idk i could say more #im feeling nostalgic tonight #things are changing and it's scary #i don't like change #but at least there's comfort in knowing some moments still feel like nothing changed #weirdly comforting #i am so sad #please ignore me #i'm currently going through trauma therapy. #don't mind me #all my emotions are so raw right now #i am literally just an open wound #and not a person

[freshberries]

just reread the end of tell me about the big bang and i am currently in the strangest mood of my life

#text #i wanted to read the letter again #my name is finn i am a person i love i love i love #anyways it was insanely nostalgic and my heart kinda hurts right now #kinda weird thinking about how much i used to care about them #on that note i should probably figure out when they cloned tyrone is dropping #but thats all i wanted to share

[clehame]

i’m pretty sure studying abroad was a poor decision with regards to every single aspect of my life, but i’m saying this sick and tired and after a long day of being on a mandatory field trip i’ve been dreading all week so. grain of salt etc

#doesn’t help that i just finished listening to a self described cozy mystery audiobook set in oxford #& so now i’m nostalgic and utterly convinced i should have gone to england #but still. i am trying to be positive i am trying to keep an open mind i am Putting Myself Out There as much as i’ve been able #i’ve been talking to people i’ve been asking questions i’ve been making conversation i’ve been searching desperately for someone i like #but also like. if i could get my money back and go home right now. or go to a different program even. i would in a heartbeat #a diff program wouldn’t solve everything but it would solve the academic failure of this program #which is that i’m not interested in any of the classes i’m taking bc i’m trying desperately to take classes that fulfill major requirements #but that’s almost impossible here esp for psych which is the one i need credits for #and so on an academic level this program is a waste of my time and actually actively harming me academically and i very well might have to #take a summer class. bc i can’t meet all my requirements in time #and then on a social level. well it’s me #i don’t like anyone yet and of COURSE bc its fucking day 6 but i have talked. to so many people. and it’s so hard #AND on a culinary level i don’t like any of the food here and i have to figure out how to feed myself and i genuinely considered just buying #a pallet of meal replacement shakes and drinking those. but i don’t even know if i can buy those here #anyway it would all be fine if i was just lonely and didn’t like the food that’s to be expected im homesick #but this program is like actually literally negatively impacting my degree progress and i not only would be happier but would be on a much #more stable path to graduation if i wasn’t doing it #i wish i had picked a better program I WISH I WAS TAKING CLASSES. AT A LOCAL UNIVERSITY. IN ENGLISH. AND NOT AT A STUDY ABROAD PROGRAM #HQ WITH EXCLUSIVELY OTHER AMERICANS!!! WHAT IS THE POINT????? #personal #isa bcn

Luke Castellan is a great source of your happiness.

Whether it be bringing you a small snack while you work endlessly in the infirmary, or sitting there with you, waiting for you to finally be free of work to finally have a chat with you, with the biggest smile on his lips.

Or it could be from how he always strives to protect you, jumping right in the middle of an attack during capture the flag.

"I can handle myself, Luke." You'd tell him.

He believes you. Every bit of his being believes you. You're amazing with a sword, even more with a bow. Yet something in him pushes him to shield you from any form of danger.

Even when you feel the need to be annoyed at him, in the slightest. His sheepish, almost apologetic smile he gives you pulls at your heartstrings, like a magnet. To be honest, you'd surrender your entire being for him, you'd send him the moon and the stars if he asked you to. You just love him too much.

However, Luke Castellan is also sometimes (never) a pain in your ass.

Such as now, as he once again, shoots you a sheepish smile as he shows up at the entrance of the infirmary.

"What are you doing here?" You question him instantly. Although you have a rough scrunch in your eyebrows, and your arms are crossed, Luke knows you like the back of his hand.

The way your fingers fiddle lightly with the loose string of your orange T-shirt shows how you're genuinely worried, and there's just the slightest curl at your lips that he catches.

Luke pouts at you. You ought to punch him at how cute he looks.

"What? Am I not allowed to visit my favorite girl?"

You scoff, but don't distance yourself from him when he walks forward to wrap his arms around your waist. "Not when I'm pretty sure you have counselor duties,"

Warmth spreads through you, a familiar, nostalgic one. Such as a warm home, or a campfire, it ripples through your soul and body, as Luke's fingertips caress you gently.

"I got hurt," He replies simply.

As expected, his words cause you to pull away almost immediately, your hands cupping around his cheeks softly, as you tilt his head to check every surface of his skin.

Although Luke hates making you worry, he adores the way you care for him.

With a sly smirk, Luke raises his index finger slowly, watching as your eyes trail from his own, to his hand, and finally, the small cut on his finger.

In an instant, you push Luke away playfully, huffing in relief. "You idiot! I thought you were hurt!"

"But you don't understand," He sighs dramatically. Your lips curl up from his overexaggerated sad expression, holding a hand to his heart. "how much my heart hurts when I'm away from you,"

With a roll of your eyes, you step away from your boyfriend, walking to the other side of the infirmary to grab a bandaid. Luke follows you, as if a magnet, watching and admiring your every move.

He watches as you unwrap the bandaid, adores you as you wrap it around his finger carefully, and if he could, he would praise you as you place a small kiss on top of it. Praise you more than he's ever praised to his father, or any other god.

"Better?"

And when he looks in your eyes, he sees his whole universe. Doesn't matter if he's a human, or half god, or if the whole mystical world existed in the universe. As long as it had you, he knew he'd yearn for it for eternity.

And suddenly, there's a flicker. Luke doesn't know how he notices it, not when it's there for only the slightest moment, but he doesn't care.

You're sad.

Another great thing about your great boyfriend, he loves to comfort you.

His fingers caress lightly at the skin of your cheek, frowning worriedly. "Are you okay?"

You're surprised at his attention to the smallest details, confusion evident on your face. "How did you—"

"—I just know, baby," He chuckles. "now tell me, are you okay?"

You can't explain it. But you try, for Luke. You'd do anything for him.

"My dad," You start. This time, it's Luke's heartstrings that are pulled dangerously at. He knows how complicated your relationship with your dad is—hell, everyone at camp has a complicated relationship with their God parent!

Luke's thumb strokes your cheek dearly, urging you to continue.

"He... visited my sibling? I guess? I mean, not directly but, yeah,"

You are a person who's strong, who's always put together, even more so when you have to take care of people every day. Seeing you so... hurt, so vulnerable and weak, Luke wants to curse at Apollo himself, but knows better. He's not worth it. You, however, Luke will stay and wait forever for.

"He visited my brother in a dream. They had a whole conversation, caught up, and I'm happy for him, I am! I just—" You can't keep your lip from wobbling, your heart shaking just at the thought of what your brother had told the whole cabin just this morning.

They were all happy, so were you, asking him countless questions and eager to know how their father is doing, but you can't help but feel jealous.

Luke nods in understanding as you tell him this.

"I mean, he visits my brother, has a whole conversation with him all night in his dream... and he can barely spare a single word for me? What, not even a sign the he cares, that he's here?"

And when tears cascade down your cheek, Luke wants to destroy Olympus with his own bare hands. Maybe for another day, for now, he'll coo and bring you into his embrace, stroking at your back affectionately.

"It's okay baby, it's just me. Let it all out,"

Pent up stress from the week, added with your jealousy and confusion results in a full sob into your lover's shoulder, as he mumbles sweet nothings into your ear.

"I've got you, and I'm not going anywhere."

Your soul cleanses from the hatred and envy, replaced with the love and care that Luke provides, feeling safety and solace in his embrace alone.

"I'm sorry for burdening you like this,"

Luke's heart nearly physically cracks at your words, even more at your defeated eyes peering up at him.

He shakes his head, pressing a sweet kiss to your temple. "Don't be sorry, baby," He mumbles, before pressing another kiss to your cheeks, pecking away your tears. "you could never burden me."

Finally, immense joy and love resonates through you, as it radiates off Luke and onto you, like the sun shines its rays onto earth, you feel complete with him.

"Thank you," You breathe out, staring into Luke's eyes with the most gratitude and love. And once again, he sees those eyes. The eyes that hold his universe, the eyes he'd yearn for forever. And when he leans down to connect your lips in a soft, loving kiss, he knows he will yearn them forever.

You'd send the moon and all the stars his way.

Luke would go to hell and back for you, he'd destroy Olympus for you. He'd be your sun and every asteroid, and you his moon and stars. Together, you'd have your own little universe, just for the two of you. Doesn't matter if you're human, or demigod, as long as he has you, and you have him, it'll forever be complete.
