Apparently I'm not done yapping about the Alexis at the Summit.
"Look who it is. Sam’s latest conquest. What an honor. Yes. “Mates”, as you love to remind people. Cute."
Bitch you fucking know what they feel for each other through the gods damned Maker's bond.
It's so fascinating how much of a façade she's putting up in meeting Darlin for the first time. It's almost crystal clear she's still so down bad for Sam. But because he wants nothing to do with her, she's suffering and lashing out like the spoiled selfish princess she's been for half a damn century.
"How many years would you two really have before someone sees you together and assumes he’s your son instead of your “mate”?"
"... If you want to roll around with the dogs, then I’d just as soon stay away from the smell anyway."
The pause before she 'agrees' to stay away from Darlin cannot be accurately conveyed in text form. Tori did an AMAZING job charging that pause with unspoken true emotion and putting a wall back up.
Random little Avantris details I never pointed out before but won’t leave me now (not specific to any particular campaign, and little to no spoilers of any campaign mentioned)
In Beneath Dark Wings, I love that in Felix’s introduction, Andy was basically over here like “This is Felix, my beautiful baby boy. He’s running from the government and I love him dearly :)”, while everyone else was essentially like “this is my character. And that is all I’m gonna say about them”
In Edge of Midnight, Richie just. Fingerspelling H-E-X every time he uses Hexsblade Curse. Tho I think I’m just partially happy I can understand it lol
The fact that some of them do research on their characters beforehand??? The ones I’ve mostly noticed this so far is Andy, Mikey, and Richie, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the others do research for their characters too. Like with Andy knowing about Tieflings Virtue Names (like Shepherd); Richie seemingly looking up actual Latin for the Heart and Harvest oneshot (idk if he was actually changing IN Latin, but it sounded better than just taking the names of some spells and just adding -io at the end); etc.
Some of the characters just straight up looking like their player. It’s most obvious with Marius (Andy) and Gideon (Mace), but I feel like Gricko shares some resemblance with Mikey, Jornir with Richie, Kana with Maya, and Victoria with Kelsey (tho with those last 2 I feel are slightly skewed bc they actually cosplay their characters for CoS). The only one I’m having trouble placing is Derek, but my mind also keeps telling me that Frost vaguely looks like him so idk.
The DMs constantly asking each other questions like “what stat would you use for this roll” or “how hard should i realistically make this DC for this roll, and why”. And the players consistently replying with legitimate answers to these questions, and reasoning for these answers.
Also the worldbuilding feels so…idk, collaborative? Like, I’m pretty sure this world is of Mikey’s creation, but the others seem to build onto it constantly and so seamlessly and I lowkey love it??? Also makes the world feel more alive somehow, and I’m not sure why.
The sheer amount of differing personalities between characters???? Like, it’s so easy to just make every character you play just have your personality, but the cast, for the most part, don’t do that. Of course, there are some semblances of a player’s personality that won’t go away regardless of character (most notably with Andy and Mikey, I’ve realized), but the majority of the personality is very different. The best example I can give is Mace’s characters—at least Gideon, Yorgrim, and Taishen—they’re all Mace (Taishen more-so I think), but they’re very different characters. Richie’s characters are also a great example of this (Clayton, Kremy, Jornir, Briggsy, Toa).
Also how interactive they are with the fandom as a whole??? They interact with their fans, fanart, they keep up with what ships and characters are popular and why. Idk, it makes them feel a lot more real to me.
This was supposed to just be me pointing out little details in different campaigns, but it turned into me actually realizing just why I lowkey love this fandom? Not just the media, but the fanbase, and how they interact with the fandom. Idk, this has been one of the healthiest fandoms I’ve been in in a WHILE. Like, no, it isn’t perfect, but considering that some of my most recent fandoms included all sorts of controversy and content creators being shitty people, this is an upgrade lol.
Finally got Stardew Valley. Played a little bit of it. The timed days and managing the energy bar be STRESSFUL. But I also got to meet Alex and give gifts to Linus so that was great.
I do wish there was some sort of tutorial though cus even though I've watched SDV gameplay so much I was struggling to play it because I didn't know key bindings for stuff or where certain things were. I also don't like having to walk everywhere but I think I'll get used to it.
But overall, it's been alright so far. I'm gonna play more because I want to marry Alex.
Also, kinda unrelated, but I just got Lethal Company and Content Warning too. I'm excited to play those.
Practicing Anton’s expressions from official art that I vaguely remember seeing (AKA a bad idea)
Guys I think I'm morphing into a Lighter fan. Updates coming soon.
Okay, so I finished Lycaon and Rina's quests today, and oh my lord I have yap to yap. But I'll keep it short because I played a lot of ZZZ today and, including chores, that made me tired.
First I just wanna say boomer Lycaon so real. He can not internet we need to protect him from brainrot.
Also that one girl in his quest iykyk. Hoyoverse getting funky with the dialogue in this one.
Okay onto Rina's quest. My HEAAAAAAAART AAAAAA. I nearly cried. NEARLY.
The poor old lady, and the cutscene was what almost made me cry it was just so sweet to hear what Rina told her. And through the whole thing Rina was just so sweet and to me all of Victoria Housekeeping is just so cool.
Also I like that we get to trial use characters a lot. Lycaon is cool but I prefer long range to close range so I prefer Rina's playstyle. I also just love how she floats and when you dash with her it feels like you're flying. To me at least.
So to conclude those quests were really interesting and made me like their characters a LOT. I really wanna learn more about Lycaon's backstory too, he's so cool.
idk. too many people drive like they don’t realize (or care) that they could die and/or kill someone. as a result of the way they are driving. sorry if i sound lame or ancient i just feel insane witnessing the lack of concern on a regular basis. The vehicle you are in is thousands of pounds going many miles an hour. do you know this
She Stars on my Rail till I Honkai
She Zeros on my Zone till I Zenless
