kind of expected that the ability breakdown wouldnt get that much traction (especially on twitter bc if it doesnt do well in the first few hours it might as well be dead) but what i didnt need to wake up to was looking at my twitter notifications and thinking there was a long comment on it at first but then i read it and it turned out to be some guy having dug up one of my old totk tweets where i talked about how zelda was treated-
and if a quote retweet with a thread attached already starts with "this entitled brat didnt understand that zelda was being a history nerd by being in the past and getting to experience it herself" with two screenshots attached of the end of totk with zelda staring at the cam all uwu (which has ??? to do with their point??) i dont even want to know what else was in that thread
if thats how the majority of the fandom is then im even less surprised that nintendy doesnt even have to try to write anything good :I
ah yes, i am a game nerd, and by putting me in a game where i stand around doing puppy dog eyes while being shoved around by NPCs is me being a game nerd OBVIOSULY

i'm thinking about this post and edwin and music in general. he missed out on so much. did charles show him some of it? most of it? does edwin ever discover entirely new genres and become obsessed with them? did charles ever make edwin a mixtape? did niko ask him what music he liked when he was alive, do a deep dive on it and make him his own special playlist? or something with newer songs she thinks he'd enjoy? just thinking about the dead boy (and two living girls) detective agency and music
charles also missed out on a lot but it was way less than edwin missed. and charles seems to be more in touch with the modern era (he laughed when edwin said "your internet" to crystal so he seems to be more in touch with modern stuff). i feel like niko makes a lot of playlists for her fandoms and maybe she would make something for edwin and charles. thinking about music and friendship and the dbda gang

So when the real Blackbeard was killed, his head was displayed as a threat to any pirates who may wander into the Chesapeake Bay. And that historical information makes me wonder if the whole “fake heads idea” is actually going to come back in the show as a final and grand fuckery.
Like, Stede already has experience with faking his death and getting people to believe that some random corpse is his. And maybe it‘ll show itself again when Edward is coming back to himself and wants to retire the name of Blackbeard once and for all.
So Blackbeard’s “head” is taken and displayed while Edward Teach gets to live on, getting to enjoy piracy with his love with all the pressure of his legacy off the table.

Not sure I care enough to engage with the post, but to read SVSSS + extras and come away with the interpretation that SJ doesn't care about why YQY failed to save him, just that he did fail, and therefore would never forgive him or change his behavior towards him if he learned the truth, feels off-place to me. It seems to lean into the view that SJ doesn't actually care about YQY, just sees him as a useful tool, and thus couldn't be hurt by the supposed abandonment - with that interpretation it would then make sense to think he would neither care nor change his behavior (towards YQY) upon learning what actually happened.

do you think the fact that its never stated that anthea and concordia's last names are "harmonia gropius" like it is for n and ghetsis is intentional. like it may just be because they're severely underutilized, but n and ghetsis had their names specifically stated in the directors columns and a fan meeting respectively.
n mentions he was given the name harmonia, did ghetsis withold that name from anthea and concordia on purpose? if he did, why? he'd still need them to trust him, so they'd keep raising n in his place. not sharing that name is maybe an effort to distance himself, maybe he only cared about n having that level of trust with him?
