Growing Pains

Sometimes I ask myself if Wesker ever woke up in the middle of the night, drenched in cold sweat, cringing so violently he almost snapped his own neck again, because he had a nightmare about how unbelievably embarrassing his death in RE1 was.

Like. Sir. You monologued, betrayed everyone, released a bioweapon, thought you had this grand villain arc going… and then got impaled straight through the stomach by the thing you thought you could control.

AND CHRIS SAW THE WHOLE THING

I’m convinced that’s the real reason Wesker keeps trying to kill him. Not revenge. Not ideology. Just pure, unfiltered humiliation. He cannot allow the one man who witnessed his most humbling moment to keep breathing.

Honestly? Valid. I get second-hand embarrassment just thinking about it. If I died like that in front of my coworker, I’d hunt him down too.

There’s one little detail during the final boss battle of Splatoon 3 (well several, actually) that’s lost in translation

You see there’s a specific phrase associated with the Calamari Inkantation in Japanese, “to hear it is heaven, to sing it is paradise”

Cap’n Cuttlefish says it when he hears the Inkantation during the final boss of Splatoon 1:

And Marie and Callie say each half it respectively when the former helps the latter regain her memories during the final boss of Splatoon 2:

In Splatoon 3′s final battle, the phrase returns once again, where this time Cuttlefish starts with the first half, and DJ Octavio finishes it with the second half:

Now, the English localizations usually adapt this phrase with “That heavenly melody (the one and only)”, and they did have Octavio say it in 3-

But what get’s lost is the fact that, originally, Cuttlefish and Octavio were saying it together in 3, which is nice to see, given their history and all

(The Japanese phrase also generally seems a bit more profound, but the localizers probably couldn’t have guessed it’d become such a recurring thing when they were working on 1, so yeah)

One thing I think is rlly interesting abt splatoon lore is how money isn’t really all that necessary to live - there are thousands of other ways to get things like food and drinks (housing?? Idk…) but I just think it’s kind of neat we get to peek into this sort of capitalist non capitalist world where money isn’t really an issue for anyone

VOTE FOR GLADOS. VOTE FOR HERRRRRR

I swear I’m writing dawg…. I swear………….

I’m just. b…busy…… yeah…….

“Leon is Chris’s foil” and “Chris and wesker are perfect opposites” okay yeah but have you considered just how similar wesker and Leon are. think about it. Considered the best out of their peers. hey both were given shit cards but one decided to keep helping people. To believe in the world. The other decided to throw it all away- to believe that he’s the only good one left. Damn Chris rlly has two sides of the same coin to choose from 😭

Any and all Gordon Freeman’s experience the loss of his very large and impressive Hatsune Miku collection.
