i think casual players (like my friends) hate Emma and she doesn't deserve it. she didn't owe feelings or a relationship to Jacob. should she have continued to flirt with him after? no but I do believe that's part of her facade and insecurities, she wants people to like her and that's how jacob liked her. I want ppl to understand she wasn't a bad person. the dare she was given was either kiss her ex (which we know he would've tried to use as evidence they should get back together) or kiss her friends crush: either way I feel she'd have gotten heat. I feel her choice was hard but made sense. she made the kiss a Little Much to get Jacob to get it but in reality it was just a game and she didn't do it to hurt Abi.
I also think of her in a deep and autistic way
i feel like she is afraid of people not liking her, and puts on a performance (canon) so if ppl do dislike her it doesn't feel as personal. her 'flirting' with jacob during the game was, to me, a defense. she's uncomfortable with the energy so she needs him to like her therefore act how he likes (which is flirty). Jacob put her in a situation where she was somehow rude for not returning his feelings the same or having the same wishes so she performed for him. is that the best thing to do? no, but can you blame her? trapped at camp with her fresh ex who keeps hounding her and moping. I can see her being like "well I just have to be nice✨️ to him so he let's the night be comfortable"
disclaimer: I don't dislike Jacob nor think He's a Bad character but I do think it's important to recognize yeah he has the right to be upset, to have feelings but it's also unfair of him to keep going after her after she made her position clear. he's ignoring her no. like he can be sad but he needs to recognize how he comes off trying to 'convince' her. and the fact that he was willing to literally trap her at camp just to 'convince' her is weird and to me makes me understand Emma's stance more.
anyways I'm an emma defender idc that she kinda caused drama with the truth or dare kiss, she was put in an unfair position and she didn't Make the dare. should she have made the comment about Nick being a good kisser? maybe not but I feel like she meant it like "ooh abi he's good /teasing" and not "nah nah a boo boo I just kissed your crush" abi had every right to get upset but I do feel intentions are important and Emma's intentions weren't to hurt Abi they were to avoid kissing Jacob (which feels obvious to me bc when he started gloating she seemed to make her decision)
that all being said a lot of this is interpretation based if you disagree with anything that's fine but be nice about it cause I don't mind discussion but I dont like arguing
I think majora’s mask is a better game than ocarina of time, maybe not a better Zelda game but a better game nonetheless.
Story wise it’s not comparable majora goes way off base for a Zelda game so much it spawned theories about the meaning of it. Especially the exploration of death and grief. Do you know any other Zelda game having multiple levels of interpretation at the time and even today?
Immersion and NPCs, majora has so many more memorable NPC and that’s because they’re tied to quest and substories that flesh out its world and increase immersion, those npcs are alive in this doomed world.
Music, three words: stone tower temple.
Legacy, if you loved BOTW you need to realise that it borrows more from the game design of majora than ocarina. Examples: like majora botw has 4 guardians freed by defeating a beast, botw has a time cycle that resets the world by respawning all monsters, both have journaling and subquests.
Why do I say it may not be a better Zelda game ? Because while borrowing elements and creatures from the Zelda universe in its format and story it’s just not a Zelda game even Link’s Awakening while (spoiler) happening in a dream is closer to the original zelda than majora, eight dungeons each containing an item necessary for progression through the world towards the next dungeons, do you know what you get in dungeons in MM ? First a bow and then magic arrows! Everything else require exploration of the world, interaction with the npcs, and sidequesting.
What makes both of these games great is that Ocarina of time was the perfect transition from 2D to 3D for the series, Majora’s Mask with the knowledge of the previous one had the balls of letting go of the formula.
In conclusion, don’t get me wrong I love both of those games yet I believe MM is a better game but OoT was not only necessary but in a way inevitable the first 3D Zelda game would have never deviated from what the legend of Zelda and the legend of Zelda a link to the past had done not after Zelda 2. I’m so glad OoT was so good we got MM.
Also play the DS games you’ll have to get other the touch controls and the ocean shrine in the first one but they’re good and deserve your attention.
Beastly Co-op Review of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet
Beastly Co-op Review of #PokemonScarletViolet
It is always fun doing these co-op reviews especially when a game has two different versions. The video above already gave you our thoughts in a podcast-style review. This is just the summary of that cast.
(more…)
big fan of essek thelyss, not the fanon interpretation, which is either "smol bean, tiny fragile elf who's a sweetheart and basically a child" or people mistakenly calling betrayal of one's home country a "war crime" and then proceeding to be flippant about it anyway, but the real Essek
pretentious motherfucker that committed treason bc he though he was smarter than everyone else
learned to float literally just to impress other rich people
canonically neutral evil
basically head spymaster of his country and master of lies but sucks shit lying to his friends
stayed bitchy even after his redemption arc
"there is nothing I would love more than to not be around you all for the remainder of this day"
a space wizard that crushed someone with telekenesis just to show off (the person was already dying)
sexy feet, nice ass, overall hottie
fell in love with a traumatized wizard of his enemy country and it was mutual despite all the betrayal
faggot
gave away state secrets to enemy wizard bc he though he was sexy
discovered time travel with his boyfriend
proceeded to say they shouldn't use time travel (bc now he's a good boy) but was willing to sacrifice everything and help if his bf wanted to use it
once confessed he had such a bad fight with his dad that his dad ran into the demon caves and never returned (essek doesn't feel bad about this at all)
young for an elf but still 120 years old, he called his bf "young man" and flexed on him about how much more evil he is
Just so we’re clear, everyone knows that Iceman is alive and (sometimes) happily married to Mav and still putting up with his and Roosters shenanigans?
you know, love mellows you out, it does, in a way that feels like taking a breath after feeling suffocated, coming home after a long day, opening your arms and settling into a hug, a long and warm one. In a way that allows you to feel settled and safe in your identity, you no longer have to keep moving it around in your hands. It mellows you out when you no longer have to fight to be seen.
Truth 🤣 Live your life, know your worth. Let them misjudge you, you live in their head & they cannot let go, but you can and should! This is “me” letting go and it feels amazing! Peace & love everyone ! 💋

The most common thing that I have seen people talking about TFP is that Megatron's unhealthy obsession with optimus and after eons of war, Optimus just being impassively done with the antics.
Megatron:*hovering over Optimus* Optimus my love... I am waiting to be in ur arms.... Please notice me ... notice me as I am in need of your time *start singing in the most dramatic way possible*
I need your time
I need your love
When everything wrong
You make it right~~~
Optimus:* Bang the data pat on Megatron's face less violently just to shut him up * Nope...
