OKAY SO
Tomorrow, me, @atak-achrativ and @freshlybakedpigeons are going to stream Star-spawned, roleplay made by @prokopetz!
EDIT: time will be at 6:30 Central European Time!
This is a GMless roleplay. The core concept is that we are playing eldritch beings who were just born, therefore we have no idea about what our stats mean.
So, we are applying the scientific method to it. We are gonna make hypotheses and test them. We are very smart eldritch beings.

~20k, shrunkyclunks, strangers to lovers, christmas fic
There’s anxiety gnawing at Bucky's bones, so he tries to make a list of what he knows and has. He has some groceries. He has his gloves, and his lip balm. He has his wallet, and he has his phone. What he doesn't have is his keys, and thus, a way to get into the house. It’s after eight pm on Christmas Eve, and it’s below freezing outside. His mother has his spare key, and ordinarily he would call her, but right now she’s nearly 4000 miles away. There’s no way she would be able to help him.
“Fuck,” he proclaims out loud.
A pigeon on the sidewalk across the street flutters away.
Another voice cuts through the cold. “You okay?”
Bucky looks up to see a silhouette on the balcony two floors above him. Clearly, he had been swearing louder than he intended to. The figure is clearly male, and built like a fucking brick house, but the light behind him makes any other features vague and indistinguishable.
“Uh, yeah,” Bucky says dumbly. “I just- I forgot my keys.”
“I’ll let you in.”
The silhouette disappears from the balcony.
Bucky steps forward to retrieve his groceries from the steps of the building, and has just picked up the last can of cat food when the door opens. He looks up to meet the man who saved him from hypothermia.
And what a man it is.

Okay but fr I hope Dan and Phil don’t feel pressured to actually do a 25-day gamingmas bc that’s like. SO much work for them. They don’t need to upload every day leading up to Christmas. They can just do like 5 days or a week, but even then they don’t need to do that, that’s just if they wanna do some sort of gamingmas-type thing
I just want them to take care of themselves and not burn themselves out 😭

Opinion on Myriad Celestia Trailer: Cloud Knights Martial Doctrine, On Swords
Just finished watching it, goodness did I really like it
Admittedly, didn’t present as much as I would have loved it to tell me about Jingliu though I suppose that is more to drum up hype and leave more of that information for her upcoming companion quest in this new version.
However, even if it didn’t present as much as I would love to know about Jingliu, it did present something VERY important, that being the mindset that is carrying her through all of these actions. This path she is choosing to walk is influenced by her beliefs and attitude and said beliefs and attitude are influenced by the state she is in.
I also really love this continued use of juxtaposition for establishing Jingliu’s character, a swordswoman in the final stages of her story with her being marastruck and all, by setting her alongside Yanqing, a boy in the beginning of his story setting off for a path of glory directly inspired by tales of who SHE once was even if he doesn’t know it’s her. It does a lot for establishing his character as well and I really enjoy it. There is just such a striking contrast with Yanqing’s naivety and in all honesty arrogance, thinking he can handle more than he can, against Jingliu’s cold hardened skill and experience, knowing he truly can’t and not really being afraid to knock him down whether with her sword or with her words.
It really just makes me all the more excited to see what they have in store for her and where she’ll end up, even makes me a little interested in Yanqing’s character as a result.
So again, not necessarily as much lore as I would love to learn about Jingliu and in some ways, a little anti climactic when compared to some of the other Myriad Celestia trailers, HOWEVER, the art style used for the Xianzhou Myriad Celestia trailer continues to be absolutely remarkable and gorgeous and I love the differences between the art when she’s with Yanqing, when it’s explaining his reasons and showing images of her that parallel, and then when the imagery that shows with her own beliefs. It’s just really good.
ALSO GOD DAAMNN DOES MADNESS LOOK GOOD ON JINGLIU, I am sweating this woman is so gorgeous

So, @silv-paru sent Sherlock Holmes for the character opinion bingo. thanks a bunch for this (and for your patience. my god, i’m answering this a week late. typical me behaviour). you’re a darling :D
Did you know, i used to tell these stories to my friends? they delighted in them AND i got a chance to sort of ramble on and on abt him and watson. it was a win-win, really. ah, those were the days! now i haven’t reblogged much of him this month at all. i miss him. I MISS HIM.
Onto the bingo: well. he’s The quintessence of gender™ to me. and i relate to him so so much. fav character of all time fr. i want to carry him in my pocket at all times & study him. like. do i want to BE him OR am i IN LOVE with him, ykwim? pssh who knows? certainly not me. uh-huh ‘a beast unleashed’ -does this refer to me or him? you choose. oh re: canon, i’m ignoring the part where holmes dies (or y’know, is dead for 3 years). that’s too angsty.
