#Stop the Infection

Harmony Syndrome Part 5/5

The last chapter of my mlp infection AU! Thank you to everyone who followed along. Some final thoughts on my twitter @cracklewink if anyone's interested : )

#mlp #my little pony #mlp infection au #mlp infection #twilight sparkle #Sorry for leaving the ending open ended but I genuinely couldnt decide on just one way for things to turn out and I liked the idea of #leaving it open the most #in my mind sunset's final message is like we found a recording from the later days of the infection and we dont know what happened in the #end because the recordings stopped/ended #In any case I think they were able to put twilight and the others to rest #but who knows who survived the “final battle” and who didnt #also yes Twilight created harmony syndrome but not on purpose lol #it was the result of her botched attempt to create a spell that makes ponies immortal #obviously it backfired lol #and the irony is that twilight ends up dying before any of her friends #if they didnt want me writing my little pony horse tragedy they shouldnt have left mlpfim off on the note that all of twilight's friends #were growing old without her #ending thats been haunting me for five years #if anyones seeing this this is an open au btw so feel free to adopt any of the ideas if you like! : ) #tw thanatophobia #thanatophobia

He has simultaneously ruined and fixed my psyche somehow

kinda sucks as an immunocompromised & high risk person that i have to deal with people's negative reactions to me masking & refusing to go into crowded places unmasked

because now it's gauche to care about covid

i know humans are social animals but we also have enough cognition to understand when our emotional impulses are at odds with our knowledge of a situation!!

so why after all these studies and statistics is it considered embarrassing to try not to get or spread the single most disabling disease of our time??? a disease that has killed so many people, directly and indirectly??

#covid #also like even if covid really was over i'd never stop masking in public #because i used to have one infection or another 8-10 months out of the year and i am NEVER going back to that ever #esp cuz every infection of any kind has the risk of making me sicker bc of how my disabled body works #covid19 #thatdiabolicalfeminist

the imagery of no health regen…… wounded skin that doesn’t heal…. torn clothes….. burns…. scorch marks….. bite marks….. blood everywhere…… unraveling bandages…… oh…….

#secret life #secret life smp #if i ever write a slsmp fic. everyone is going to be wounded as FUCK #like. i love it when fan artists draw the characters punctured with arrows #or burned after dying to lava/fire #and now with no health regen. how the injuries don’t go away #a worn and ragged green life almost desperate to turn yellow #if not for the full set of health again #stab wounds that don’t close. a heart bleeds until you die. the scratch marks itch under the armour #ohhhhhh it’s so sexy #teammates changing each others bandages bc the blood never stops #infected wounds? that only ease when more hearts are earned from the secret keeper? #i’m so obsessed with this already #like yessssss the player gets weaker and weaker as they lose more hearts #they are so damaged and injured they can barely raise their shield #their whole body aching. scathing with every hit and blow #and then when they gain hearts. and the RELIEF #of scorch marks fading. wounds closing. blood drying. pains easing. broken bones set themselves #so much cruelty in the world. everyone takes that extra little care with each other #no more friendly slaps on the shoulder or even high fives #everyone is just very still. too fatigued to do anything but survive

goodmorning

#side rant that’s KINDA related #obviously ur allowed to let stuff make u feel however u want who cares but like #i wish so many people wouldn’t feel remorse for unpleasant bc of the update like the way i see it is thats the point #ur not Meant to feel bad for her i feel like the whole aspect of her being something inherently wrong and unnatural that causes some sort- #of primal discomfort for everything around her isnt appreciated enough. like yknow how cool that is as a concept #idk she’s one of my fav characters and to me she’s just. a creep. and she’s like this INTENTIONALLY she likes seeing others afraid #i think apart from infected my fav interaction is with poob. the way they say stop looking at me like that or something #and it implies unpleasant is looking all sad to try and guilt poob into letting her back into their party. i LOVE that. #thats absolute peak unpleasant and ilove her #rant over thank u #regretevator #unpleasant gradient #regretevator unpleasant #regretevator jeremy #odieart

“I'm afraid will always be // Trapped within an abstract from a moment of my life // The weeds up through the concrete // The traffic picking up speed // All my love and terror balanced there between those eyes” - Abstract (Psychopomp) by Hozier

i became very obsessed with the idea that thorn survived a lightning strike which gave him his magic. the blue is when nature decides to traumatise u

ghostsoap sneakpeak to hozier’s in a week

full post here

#ghostsoap #soapghost #ghoap #simon ghost riley #john soap mactavish #cod mw3 #my art #there’s a whole comic spread. I haven’t been able to stop thinking about them this is infecting my brain #I do really like the idea of ghost reading through soaps journal afterwards and then just getting this fantasy of them retiring and living #together in a cottage somewhere and adjusting his fantasy to little details soap includes in the journal #and completely blowing details out of proportion to match the context of his own yearning #does he warp his own memory of who soap is and their relationship to one another out of longing #perhaps perhaps not. after all the journal is very revealing

okay so it's not even that I dislike fluttercord it's that people use this ship as an excuse ta damsel in distressify fluttershy when it completely goes against her character!!!! did we watch the same show??? yeah she's a scary cat but she also works through issues MULTIPLE TIMES IN CANON. no discord is not fluttershy's knight in shining armour. no discord would not coddle fluttershy and be like "ooh my precious princess I must keep you from danger at all times" no he would not never let her go outside NO!!! THEY'RE EQUALS!!!! AND FLUTTERSHY CAN TAKE CARE OF HERSELF!!!! HER AND THE MANE SIX HAVE DEFEATED MULTIPLE BIG BAD GUYS TAGETHER!!!! FFSSSSS

[planningisnotmystrength]

having played and completed Disco Elysium multiple times now I’m getting the chance to notice things that I really didn’t zero in on when I played it the first time. 

like how bad Kim’s eyesight really is. when you find Cuno’s shack Kim is genuinely surprised that it was there, he didn’t even notice the thing that clued your Perception in on their maybe being a door. to him you really just walked up to a wall and a piece fell down and there was now a door there. and that puts his utter failure to shoot the corpse down into a completely different light (and why Empathy tells you that you shouldn’t show him compassion).

or just how funny Kim is. how willing he is to take part in a joke or a prank as long as it’s in the pursuit of solving the case or “doing your job” as policemen. how he’s willing to play a character for the Racist Lorry Driver. or mess with the wannabe Skulls and take their jackets. or even how he starts introducing you as Detective Costeau if you continue to stick with the name (though he is clearly trying very hard to keep his voice steady and face still). he genuinely actually has a good sense of humor (but is also very serious, which makes it even funnier).  

or the specter of fear and anger that hovers around Garte. he doesn’t know if the Union will squeeze him out like they did all the other business owners, or if they’re going to start a war (I mean, there’s a literal dead mercenary hanging in his back yard). he’s got to be wondering how he can stay open if only locals can come in or out (due to the blockade) and he’s clinging to the idea that he has other places that he manages. we get glimpses of his real thoughts in the moments before he catches his tongue and realizes “no, I really shouldn’t talk to cops/the union/others like that.”

or the practiced apathy that Klaasje uses to hide her fear, how she pretends so hard not to care so you don’t suspect her. how effectively she can lay another tempting red herring at your feet. how Evrart Claire really is clever enough to play not only the characters but the player (if you haven’t stacked your skills correctly or if you just say the wrong things in the wrong ways). that you can even manage to accidentally help him is a testament to the writing they’ve done. 

not to mention the pervasive and ever-present fury of Revachol as a reaction to their subjugation by the Moralintern. the sadness in Cuno’s eyes when you see past the speed in his bloodstream. the ways in which people struggle to survive in what is effectively a battlefield. the feeling of life’s daily struggle slowly drowning you under the weight of “you’ll never do better. you’ll never be better.” and the breath of fresh air in simple kindnesses from others (lamby, Kim’s compassionate moments, the old washerwoman, the salami man visiting his friend, the dance club, and so many more). 

I could write a book about how much this game means to me. how much these people mean to me. how much the potential for change, even in a doomed world, means that we can all at least create a little joy before we go. and I don’t think I’d even scratch the surface of all that it means to me. this game is...a metamorphosis? it changes the structure of what I expect from video games in the future. it changes what I expect from storytelling. I cannot express how important this game is as a vehicle for storytelling, it changes what’s possible.

#disco elysium spoilers #disco elysium #lots of spoilers #like a whole bunch #I really do love this game as a story #I can't stop thinking about it #it's infected my brain #storytelling
