Friendly reminder from a wise man!

~cleaning’s my life and when im feeling down~

Other than OJ (since it’s his hotel) who helps with cleaning and maintaining the hotel?

OJ is the head of the hotel, but when he’s not around or on break, Paper is in charge (even though he’s not good in positions of authority). Salt and Pepper usually usurp Paper.

Soap will perform cleaning duties once every few days to balance her life and keep the hotel clean. She’s been asked to recruit one person to help her with each shift so that she’s not doing all the work! Some people are more helpful than others!

Surprise Round!

this goes out specifically to the person who submitted this particular half-blood. i hope you know this is what I've done

it is so incredibly sad to constantly see kids on instagram and tiktok who are younger than my brother have to literally beg for shelter, food, water, medicine, and their right to exist as human beings

i mean, this young girl is only ten years old, yet she is essentially responsible for convincing random people scrolling through instagram that her and her family’s life are worth fighting for

on top of that, their gofundme is not even 10% funded and time is running out, please if you can’t donate, just share

please don’t let this little girl die begging

MI 1 + 2: Really just the first special edition I would love to just tweak. The art direction and some of the redesigns just have me preferring the older style compared to the new and improve version. And I feel even some of the most simple of movements are not very appealing to watch. (watching Guybrush use the rubber chicken with a pulley in the middle was not as satisfying as the original). Though I’d also say that trying to barter with Stan was kinda a hassle to me. Also give the voice lines and background ambience noises included in the original for the special edition. Please please please god please. I don’t think I have any gripes with Lechuck’s Revenge. These two games were great and it kept my attention and got me interested in the monkey island series, they’re great games and great introductions to games like them.

COMI: The more cartoony style done for the Curse was great and made it feel like a wonderful visually-interactive pirate adventure :). But, I do realize I wish we could have gotten a little more Elaine action and more of her involvement other than Guybrush having to save her. And also have a little more bonding time between Guy and Elaine towards the end. Without it, it makes the ending feel so rushed like, “I’ve saved you. Now I’m married to you.” It would have been nice to have a little back and forth banter between the bride and groom to be. Maybe a little more dialogue like when Guybrush proposed (and maybe have him try to sing and the barbers shut him up for something idk). Having that would make the ending a little less rushed than before

EMI: Oh dear. Really wasn’t a big fame of controls. Arrow keys and function keys were not fun to navigate with or for any item collecting. They were a pain.

The humor was kinda hit or miss depending on the joke or maybe a little reference towards a topical joke at the time. It kinda made me want to skip the dialogue sometimes, even though most of the dialogue is so fitting and great.

MORE GUYBRUSH AND ELAINE AS A HAPPY MARRIED COUPLE MOMENTS. Please please please. Playing Curse and then directly going into Escape feels like their relationship is now kinda on the rocks compared to the ending of Curse, where they seem very much happy and content with each other. Would want to have more cute plunder bunny moments for the soul.

and speaking of guybrush. I’m all for that goofy deep voice guybrush pulls off but it feels weird to have a happily married man and seeing him casually flirt with some of the other characters. Please more plunderbunny.

The randomization of certain tasks did lessen my enjoyment of the game. It made me go, “How the hell was I supposed to figure that out?” instead of making me feel proud to have understood the rules of the puzzle. Like the sushi boats, prosthetic order dial, and Boulder throwing.

Just a big no on the monkey kombat or at least modify it to instead do monkey noises you learn Australian slang to defeat Ozzy Mandrill. Just fix it to get rid of the tedium.

Could have gone through the series without the monkey head being a giant fighting robot and instead maybe just defeating Ozzy but then have him possessed but Lechuck to give him a role in the final battle. Also just put a big giant ‘x’ over the whole Charles L Charles thing, It didn’t make much sense to me. Just straight up Lechuck would be fun.

TOMI: Tales is great, there really isn’t Mapuche i have. The game is great and a nice neat story that combined a lot of what people love about the series. The characters, dialogue, humor, etc. All of that was there and combined to give us such an enjoyable game to a lot of people. I would like to change the controls on Tales but it’s mostly just for inspecting items and combining them for tasks. Maybe have it be like Curse and just drag it from one part to another part of your inventory. Also sometimes using the music to drag Guybrush along was a little uncomfortable. But really don’t think I have much to say other than more plunderbunny. I really don’t think you could have too much of that. You know?

Day Three: Something You Would Change

Monkey Island isn’t without its fair of flaws. Whether glaring issues or something small and trivial, there’s that one thing that if it were up to you, you would change. So pretend for a moment, you have that ability: What would be something in the series you would change?

“It definitely broke our spirits,” said Brittany Harris, 17, a junior and the co-president of the club, when she heard that the board didn’t want to accept the grant that students had worked on for weeks.

LGBTQ teens won a grant for their school. Adults sent the money back.

I think a One Piece Monkey Island Au could be possible. The style and humor could definitely be interesting to see play out. Pirates + More Pirates = An absolute win to me

Guybrush is still a pirate wanted for many smaller crimes like MI2 but also his incredibly unique sword style. He would also still be happily married to Elaine who is now a member of the world government as a marine and governor of Melee or the tri-island area. They live in Melee located maybe in one of the Blues or the grand line before the introduction of the New World.

Side characters like Morgan, Stan, and The Voodoo Lady could also big players in this universe. Morgan admires Guybrush for his admirable swordfighting but also a pirate hunter working for the marines. She could have history connecting to Zorro or connecting towards Nami’s backstory. Stan could be an annoying nuisance who comes and bothers the straw hats with lackluster products and random things due to a change in career, probably wooing over Ussop, Chopper, and Luffy.

Now the voodoo lady could be a bit of a villain or a source of uncertain waters. Her powers could be magic or even the use of a devil fruit, like Basil Hawkins and his voodoo and tarot card based powers. No one knows if she’s on their side, the other side, or a side of her own. She could also be able to see very clear visions of the future like Madam Shirley. She like in the Monkey Island games could stay a mysterious force that looms over all and watches all.

Lechuck’s power could be a devil fruit that allows him to become a zombie but not face the consequences of dying after contact with sunlight. His power could make him still alive but also allow him to become a ghost or spirit at will, like Brook. He still would seek vengeance for the hand of Elaine and be seen as a feared pirate over in the “Caribbean” area of the world and maybe spread towards other nearby islands and their folklore. Not many would be able to have proven him real especially since there would not be many who would live to tell the tale, maybe Guybrush might be the only survivor. Something he might take with great pride i.e. “That Time I Blew Up Lechuck”.

The straw hats could arrive on melee and the island in between looking for treasure hunting purposes but then get roped into the hijinks of Tales. Where they meet the plunderbunny couple in the middle of the action or the moments before.

Either way I could see it, pirates, pirates, and more pirates? Hijinks and humor littered throughout? Sounds like quite the adventure to me!

Come aboard and bring along all your hopes and dreams (and your rubber chicken with a pulley in the middle too)!
