These Are So Awesome, I Just Had Reblog It.

Persona 5 Mythology

Mythology for Persona 5 mainly should be Egyptian mythology as it fits the pattern. In Persona 3 the history teacher had an obsession with Japanese history, in Persona 4 Japanese mythology was the main source for Personas. Thus since in Persona 4 the history teacher had an obsession about ancient Egyptian history the Egyptian mythology could be used. Orisis or Anbius could be awesome Personas.

They already used Anbius in other games, why not P5?

This is so helpful! Reblogging this so I can remember for later.

Writing Tips

Descriptions in Between Dialogue

✧

⤠ how characters interact with the environment

⇝ moving something, picking something up, looking somewhere

⤠ how the environment interacts with the characters

⇝ weather, other character’s actions or movements

⤠ gestures

⇝ facial expressions, body language

⤠ shifts in position

⇝ standing, sitting, leaning, shifting weight, crossing arms/legs

⤠ physical reactions

⇝ body temperature, fidgeting, heart rate, character quirks

⤠ environmental descriptions

⇝ descriptions using the five senses, setting, character’s appearances

⤠ internal dialogue

⇝ emotional reaction to what was said, reflection of past experiences, connections to other characters/settings/actions

➵ I want to reiterate… descriptions using the five senses ; when in doubt, think of the five senses your character is experiencing and pick what best moves the story forward

Waffle Crew thoughts (post Ep 93)

Wow waffle Crew has been through some stuff and effects have taken a toll on them mentally, emotionally on an individual level and as a group. I dislike conflict but I see some conflict was needed between the group members to actually start addressing their issues. I hope next session they can start further talking things out but hopefully in a calmer manner. - Diath basically relived the Ironslag event. Also high lighted to me that Diath didn't heal or deal with Ironslag. He after a little while just placed on a mask of old Diath and desperately tried to hold it together when he wasn't really holding it together. He's been very unstable for a long time and this Ep to me just shown what had been brewing suppressed for awhile. - Strix eradict behaviour and her guilt was certainly pointed out. But also the party nearly splintering gosh, the thoughts of going back to those Barovia days has got to be crushing. - Evelyn dealing with coming back from the dead again, dealing with her martyr instincts and her own insecurities wow a lot is on her plate. Also her anger, confusion and frustration was intense. - then Paultin getting attached to this group despite himself and being the most level headed one despite still processing his ring controlled attempted murder on them, Simon's brief death & Evelyn's. Then dealing with Strix & Diath breaking down. Paultin has a lot going on. Communication/lack of communication seems to be the main point of the Waffle Crew current issues from my perspective. The first attempts to address their problems was painful but hopefully will lead to better understanding of each other and possibly how they can work as a group. Group dynamics shifting I can totally see. Paultin taking over as the leader for a time I could see, at least for awhile Diath could use the time to heal without the weight of decisions on his shoulders. That is if Paultin recovers somewhat, he's been though a lot but going forward might (given certain conditions) be the best equipped Waffle Crew member to lead the group at least for a time. Strix has lead the group at points but it doesn't seem healthy for her, the anxiety seem to got worse and when she takes charge she places everything on her shoulders. Evelyn leading doesn't seem to fit currently as she has too self doubt and a similar I have to make sacrifices vibe which make Diath & Strix as leaders right now unhealthy for those individuals. Paultin has more self preservation than his party members which given his party's current status possibly the best option for them all mentally. Paultin seems aware of his own limitations and those of his allies enough that given the opportunity and choices he could be the leader the Waffle Crew need for their healing time. These are my current rambling thoughts. Knowing me it's probably not as eloquent as I prefer and I'm up for anything the Waffle Crew might try next. I love these characters virtues, strengths, vices, flaws & all. And I hope to keep seeing more of them and their interactions. One day, they'll get to 'retire' & relax without anything trying to kill them. :)

Milo!!! He was my hero growing up. Atlantis makes me so nostalgic and it still holds up.

This is a great resource remainder & thought process explanation makes a lot of sense. Very helpful in life & fiction.

Could somebody be a paramedic if they were missing a forearm?

Y’know, sometimes a question comes along that exposes your biases. I’m really, really glad you asked me this.

My initial instinct was to say no. There are a lot of tasks as a paramedic that require very specific motions that are sensitive to pressure: drawing medications, spreading the skin to start IVs. There’s strength required–we do a LOT of lifting, and you need to be able to “feel” that lift.

So my first thought was, “not in the field”. There are admin tasks (working in an EMS pharmacy, equipment coordinator, supervisor, dispatcher) that came to mind as being a good fit for someone with the disability you describe, but field work….?

(By the way, I know a number of medics with leg prostheses; these are relatively common and very easy to work with. I’m all in favor of disabled medics. I just didn’t think the job was physically doable with this kind of disability.)

Then I asked. I went into an EMS group and asked some people from all across the country. And the answers I got surprised me.

They were mostly along the lines of “oh totally, there’s one in Pittsburgh, she kicks ass” or “my old partner had a prosthetic forearm and hand, she could medic circles around the rest of her class”. One instructor said they had a student with just such a prosthesis, and wasn’t sure how to teach; the student said “just let me figure it out”, and by the end of the night they were doing very sensitive skills better than their classmates.

Because of that group I know of at least a half-dozen medics here in the US with forearm and hand prostheses.

So yes. You can totally have a character with one forearm, who works as a paramedic for a living.

Thanks again for sending this in. It broadened my worldview.

Ethan, you wanna see some shit?

Reblogging because now I’m nostalgic about Justice.

Why do more people love Cole than Justice? Is it because Cole is considered “cute”? Because I’m here to inform/remind you that Justice is adorable. Some examples!: 

He thinks our world is "a world so full of beauty that beauty goes overlooked.“

He ties his things to his belt so that next time Sigrun tries to steal them it will remind her that stealing is wrong, but since he’s told her ahead of time that he did this why would she try it again? He doesn’t have an answer. He didn’t think of that.   

He’s scared of becoming a demon because he just wants to be good

He believes that cats deserve freedom too. He is worried that Ser Pounce-a-Lot isn’t free

(He’s fine with it after Anders explains Pounce wants to be there and it’s a mutually beneficial thing.)

He wants a piece of lyrium (and books about both it and the Fade) to remind him of home because he’s homesick

He’s absolutely devastated at the thought that his presence has upset Aura (look at his face)

He’s a bit jealous of Aura and Kristoff’s love. He wants to find love too
