i find it very fun genuinely how every time you get into something and post it here you can always find yuri in it. beautiful honestly it proves yuri is everywhere for those with the eyes to see
i dont even try that hard LOL. it's funny cause i'm such a huge gay bitch myself but when it comes to fiction i am so open to like every possible kind of pairing. my current favorite final fantasy ship is straight, even. but like....... it just works out that i happen to like women a lot and i like when girls have great chemistry so thats kinda where i tend to lean by default when it comes to character appeal. i just pay a lot of attention to the girls and thus i spend a lot more time thinking about them.
I love the way that Mouthwashing uses Jimmy and Curly taking turns as the perspective character to make their actions not just parallel to each other, but hopelessly, disgustingly inseperable. The clear picture it paints us of how Curly enables Jimmy and how Jimmy guilts Curly into further enabling him. They both avoid responsibility when it really counts-- Curly through shows of appeasement and Jimmy through shifting the blame to someone else.
laios is perhaps the only character not to get the "they mentioned their favorite food once and the fandom makes it their whole personality" treatment. his favorite food is cheesecake and absolutely nobody cares
hi rach youre extremely cool your art is a ginormous inspiration to me and i was just wondering,, which of your upcoming games are you most excited about and why?
AHRG thank you so much, it's an honor that someone enjoys my art enough to be an inspiration!
Definitely most excited for Jackpot Crash Course at the time, I don't think I've made a post about the project on tumblr yet but it's the one with a mechanic/system that I think would be fun to incorporate in a death game visual novel plus writing-wise it's got the most cast of characters so far and it's been fun trying to figure out all their dynamics and how they can each get some sort of a spotlight in the narrative :)
It's going to take some time to develop it but we're hoping it'd be something completely different and the most refined, elaborate, and longest game the studio will put out compared to other short series of games we've been doing
i think people are too hard on anya (obviously) but especially on the whole “why become a nurse if you’re afraid of blood/ cant give a guy medication,” because that’s not what she can’t do. she more than likely never assumed any of her coworkers or FRIENDS for that matter would be in a state like curly’s. she hates to see someone she cared about and trusted in that much constant pain, and the reason she can’t bear to give him his medicine is because she knows how much it hurts him, and hearing her friend choke down and sob in agony is understandably very upsetting. sure she is sensitive but i honestly feel like people should be more empathetic towards that. idk. i’m sensitive, aubrey
