That and has anyone considered the housing system in game? If we were to marry a spouse, what would happen to the empty house there? Yes Eliott and Leah have their own houses, but it is still awkward to have that empty house just sitting there...
I don't like the assumption that the characters that still live at their parents' house are necessarily younger. I've seen that so much in the community and I think it's so weird? Already in our economy it's harder and harder for children to move out regardless of where in the world they live, so in Stardew where they are so freaking close to collapse on so many fundamental societal levels, there is just nothing weird for a full grown adult to still be living with their parents; if anything I feel it's kind of expected. Not to mention that in a lot of cultures, children just live with their parents even when they've started their own family. I get that some characters appear younger or more playful or stuff like that, but I don't think their living status tells a lot about their age. They have nowhere else to go, and their opportunities for money making are... pretty damn sparse. I like taking Sam as an example for this but I don't think that him being youthful and optimistic in personality and still living at his parents' house means that he is necessarily fresh out of high school. I've met people like him that were in their thirties. Not to say he is thirty, I personally think he's more around 24-25 but... yeah you get my point. Hell some of us are struggling so hard just to make ends meet, it's kind of degrading to assume that once you're past 18 you should be out of the nest and have all your shit figured out else you aren't seen as mature or adult enough. We're all trying our best honestly. I don't think our living conditions should reflect on our maturity or age in general.

This weird thing happened to me too. It was nice at first because "Ahh! 😃 Someone likes my work!" To "Wait da second? Why is this person commenting on how moving my writing is on my fanfic where I just post pictures? 😵"
Out of all the spammers I got, these bots were the nicest. (Especially after the panderers attempting to snag kids on my PG fanfic. 😡) But I still wish the person wrote a real comment actually praising parts of my work. (Again, praising me for moving writing on the fanfic with only artwork [not a comic], didn't even mention the AU the pictures were for)
Good news, haven't seen the bots in months. If they show up tomorrow, a work is getting put on private.
Any other AO3 writers getting spammed by comments that actually look like real comments but are rather… repetitive? They’re nice, effusive even, but after the second or third one I got suspicious. Not sure what the point of them is. Can’t find any links or anything that would make it a trap. Any ideas?
The Mice at Work, Threading the Needle painted by Beatrix Potter (1866 - 1943)
Honestly, I'm wondering the same question. Especially since the Tumblr community seems pretty active and interactive with original posters.
So I'm new to Tumblr and have a question ...
Why don't people comment?
I noticed a lot of people reblog, which I think is a super cool feature, but I'll find a super popular post with zero comments and it's weird. I actually love getting comments and it is odd that no one else seems to. Is it considered rude? I usually comment bc I don't like to reblog on my themed accounts (like my art account) so I'll comment. However, I don't want to come off the wrong way.
Tl;Dr - I'm new to Tumblr and wondering why no one seems to comment on posts, even popular ones.
Thanks for reading!
This is so true and funny. 🤣
Attack and Dethrone (ft. Akari, Arceus, Volo and Emmet)
If you’re gonna blame spacetime rifts for Ingo, blame Volo not Arceus
(Personally I think Ingo got Ultra Wormhole’d. And yes Volo thinks Emmet is Ingo with a clean coat)
Imagine THIS playing out in game:
Random idea: IF the Dreamers are still alive in the real world, then you should SEE them in Godhome. AND get bonuses for keeping them alive.
Team Cherry could totally pull this off as it's still the Dream Realm AND the Godseekers are calling just about everyone there.
Now, I am not saying that we should get Dreamer Boss fights (though that would be cool even if impossible to pull off if you know the original concept of the Dreamers), but what about finding a secret room and BOOM! The Dreamers are there.
Now, finding the Dreamers would be cool and all, as you get extra dialogue with all three and get to see everyone's character (especially you Lurien). But what if they would give you boosts and insights into the Boss Fights you are about to do?
What if Lurien could analyze the Boss fight weaknesses, specifically the glitches and loopholes in them such as False Knight's/Failed Champion's cheat or White Defender's cheat? What if Monomon ran tests in the background to help you figure out how to get the Lifeblood seeds, not to mention help you get them? What if Herrah would randomly help you in battle? Though I would not be opposed to her taking care of Godseeker for me due to all the times Godseeker calls Little Knight a worm as in the earthworm.
And finally, when you reach the final bosses in Pantheon of Hallownest, the Dreamers actively help you during the final bosses fights, each one taking turns (depending on lore or character) until all three help you take on Absolute Radiance. Say goodby to Fall Damage! Also, the idea of Monomon launching an explosive at the Radiance's face looks so lovely.
And of course, the ending cutscene where all three Dreamers wake up and the Hollow Knight is freed to a world without an Infection...please?????? Canonically, the Godhome ending and cutscene STILL play if the Dreamers are alive, but we don't SEE the Dreamers waking up. So please can we see them? Can we see all the hugs?
Anyway-what do you all think?
Do you think Team Cherry or any community modders could pull this idea off? If so, would you play it?
What are some of your favorite shipping dynamics?
Let's see if I can limit this to 2...
First involves a crafter + caregiver. For example, my couple Julius and Daisy. (Julius is crafter and Daisy is caregiver.)
So crafter has "Gift-Giving" as a love language, but he/she HAS to be the one Making the gifts. In this case, Julius is a smith and is spending his time crafting jewelry for his wife Daisy.
In comes caregiver Daisy with some food and water because you bet Julius skipped a meal to work on Daisy's present. And she stays, watching him. No, she is not watching what his hands are making, she is watching HIS HANDs, his determined face, how the sweat falls from his brow as he labors because this gift has to be perfect darn it! There are times that Daisy doesn't even realize that Julius is making her a present because she is too busy watching the man she loves.
And that is the shipping dynamic, the love eyes the two make. The caregiver just sitting there in love while the crafter labors in love. And Daisy still gets surprised with her presents because she might have been distracted by her husband's face. 🤣
Second shipping dynamic is when the butler ships it.
Okay, the butler is not in the ship, but the captain of the ship. This dynamic is so fun as it invites the readers into the story by having a character cheering with them for the main couple.
What I also noticed, when the butler ships it, is that the butler points out other details about the relationship that you might miss if you are surface level-reading. The butler often points out how the two are quite compatible or cover each other's flaws. (This really is delicious to read when the author already wrote this into the story, but the butler is highlighting it for you {basically gently nudging you to see the relationship instead of telling. I have read of a story where the butler told you to love the main couple, instead of revealing. Yeah, I don't trust the butler in that tale.} )
Also, the butler going out of his way to help out the main couple get together and/or build friendships with both members is so fun to read as the butler is thinking about the relationship long term, of the family and house that the couple will build. The butler isn't just thinking about securing his job but sustaining the life that the couple will have after marriage. Personally, I think this does the readers more good than the constant "Will they, won't they?"
Oh! This applies to the Head Stewardess as well! Though it has it's own flavor as the butler often gets a father/grandfather/uncle role to one of the characters while the Stewardess gets her motherly/grandmotherly/auntie role. Or best friend looking out for the other if the butler/stewardess grew up with the head of household.
Training against Pure Vessel in Godhome and the buggo has figured out a way to consistently defeat me.
Sit on me.
As in Slam-Dunk on top of me. Or jump across the area so far that PV gets me after I dash away.
Just as bad as Hornet choosing to run or walk into me. Thanks PV.
