#Strategic Combinations

[sylvies-kablooie]

i do think pokemon AUs work for literally anything. you think to yourself "this character needs an elemental beast to be friends with" and every single time you're correct.

#and then you get to go through the hundreds of creatures and decide which type combinations go with your guy #and if your blorbo would pick only one type or make a strategic battle team or collect a bunch of strays #and if they would battle or just hang out and do regular world stuff but with a friendly pal #it's always a good exercise for “how well do you know this character: which pokemon would they choose?” #yeah it brings me joy. i like the little funny creatures. #anyway sylvie DEFINITELY would have a weavile. #pokemon #juni rambles

"...that's all from me. does any of you have any questions?" "nope! crystal clear." "kew!" "that's good! um... thank you for this discussion." "you're the one who came up with this awesome plan, lopmon. have more confidence in yourself." "kew, kew kew kew!" digimon survive week 2024 day 2: cooperation

#digimon #digimon survive #lopmon #kunemon #labramon #survive week #survive week 2024 #oops i did it again in which i scrapped my sketch and redrew everything from scratch although the idea remains the same #worth it tho i like this one better #my personal extended prompt is like tamer like digimon #their tamers in particular assume respective roles of responsibility in the team #so i entertain the thought of their digimon strategizing together #unintentional is how i opened the official survive poster with the kids and kemonogami in the classroom as drawing reference #lo and behold i forgot these three mons are in fact positioned close together in that official art #with labramon and kunemon looking at lopmon too lol #cue me lowkey going nuts at my rough sketch having manifested that image unconsciously flajskdlfjl #oh and also. this trio makes the vaccine-data-virus trifecta :) #so you can say they are a balanced combination by attribute #their tamers being 'grouped' this way could well be coinkydink or intentional. but bottom line it's very cool #thanks for coming to my ted talk #png

more whiteboard shenanigans 

#drawing faces on a whiteboard is so tricky #combination of its really hard to get them to look right in general and a quirk of whiteboards is its really hard to erase #plus the order of your lines matter so you have to draw certain things first strategically and work up from there #and even if you do a good face people will always appreciate an amungi more haha #my art

#I just want to say that neither ukraine or us are wrong #ukraine always has to make its own strategic decisions #it’s important for ukraine leadership to understand that any such strategic move should be combined and followed by immediate military #objectives beyond just gloating. #taiwantalk

anti-intellectualism is when I correctly use a big word and get accused of being stupid for using made up words

#/joking bc that's not the real definition of anti-intellectualism #also tho #if I WAS making shit up and YOU KNEW WHAT I MEANT then it's good enough and an effective means of communicating ideas and a strategic #combination of my understanding of language and my understanding of that of who I'm speaking to! THAT'S SMARTER EVEN #but also like. open ur mind u haven't heard erneut #*everything #BUT ALSO #haha fnnuy joke

Hey, people who understand the FR economy: is it more profitable to sell the mats for brewing strange chests or the chests themselves?

#I feel like I remember the mats being pretty pricey last year but i can't remember if it was more #than the price of a strange chest for all of them combined sjvjsjs #trying to strategize my NoTN this year since I'll be w/ family for the first time in a while #and I won't have as much time to do my usual grinding! #also sorry this is totally unrelated to today's epic update I just know NoTN is coming up soon XD #flight rising #fr

Emmet’s favorite Mario Kart is Double Dash btw I don’t think I need to explain this and I am correct dhgjkdngdg

#submas #dshgkjdfnsg #as the local mario expert i am correct thatnks for coming to my TEDtalk #it's the only mario kart where you play as a combination for 2 charactes #and on top of that it's the only mario kart (outside of tour) that what character you choose matters because they have special items #so it's literally strategizing and experimenting with combinations of 2. one of his favorite things dhsgkjnfh #Anyways. Me: I am not explaining this. Also Me: *immediately explains it*

“Fire and psychic is a really interesting type combo that you really never get to see. You get the hotheaded ambition, drive, and impulsiveness of the fire-type, with the calm, collected, and strategic side of the psychic-type blending together. Merlin was always pretty rowdy and hotheaded before he evolved into a Delphox, and once that psychic side came out, there was a different air about him. He still had the passion and confidence, but he became much more reserved and extrospective. Seeing how his personality has changed after gaining that typing has been so interesting! He’s still got that burning passion and drive, but he’s gained an unparalleled intelligence and patience, the latter of which some fire-types lack, and it’s given him a bit more of an edge.”

#🌹 ic. #🌹 dashviewing. #serena thinking abt her starter: im gonna talk about him for 4 hours now :) #but no rly i think fire and psychic is a goated type combo like fr #the burning ambition and impulsiveness of the fire type #combined w the resounding calm and strategic mind of the psychic type? what a combo. love that sm #chaotic good wizard. love him sm

Whumptember 5: "What do you want me to do?"

Using the prompt to poke at the backstory for an ongoing WIP.

Elair's hands shook subtly as he stepped inside the Cliffside Inn. He told himself it was simply because he was cold from the rain. Now, with the flames crackling in the cramped room and the smell of hot spiced wine traveling over the tables, he would get warm in no time. Warm. Relaxed. Collected.

The man who'd ordered him to come here shouldn’t have the luxury of seeing him shudder.

The Cliffside Inn stood on the edge of the Luminous Harbor, on the flat top of the Molten Peak. Technically, this great big rock towering over the waves counted as beyond city limits. Or at least the upper part of it did. Once you got halfway up the slippery staircase cut directly into the stone, past the red flag that served as a border market, your life was governed by a fresh set of rules. The city guard still patrolled the inn and the area around it, but there were only three situations that would make them interfere.

Mass poisoning. Conspiring with the Dread God of the Deep. Murder for non-religious reason. 

Anything else was fair game.

Elair took a breath, squared his shoulders, and made his way to the farthest, darkest corner of the room. He didn't know if that was where Grati expected him, but honestly, where else?

His suspicions came true the moment he pulled up a chair. Shadows on the other side of the table moved to reveal a tanned man with the kind of smile all sharks in the Nacrous Sea envied. 

"You sure kept me waiting," he drawled in place of a greeting.

Elair kept his chin up. "You said tonight. Nothing implied the time was set in stone.”

Grati clicked his tongue. "You're getting bold out here, are you? I guess the big city living agrees with you." He looked Elair up and down, one eyebrow slightly raised. "Which aspect of it is the most agreeable, I wonder? All that shit about learning magic in a posh Academy? Or is it about your lover?"

All warmth seeped away. Elair supposed he'd always suspected that Grati must know by now. It would be unreasonable if he didn't. That didn't mean Elair was ready to hear this.

"He is nothing. Merely a way into the good crowd." He'd never be able to say this so dismissively where there was a chance of Miqualis hearing it. Not just because it was untrue, or because he didn't want to hurt his boyfriend. Rather, around Miqualis he became a softer, tamer thing. Here, away from his fabricated existence, with the person who'd known him and molded him before Miqualis had ever set eyes on him, it was different. The rancid resentment came bubbling back to the surface, and Elair let it. Old hurts were the surest disguise against those who expect nothing better.

"You are sure not nothing to him." Was that admiration in the minelord's voice? "I spent the day looking over the reports. Even observed you two first-hand, a little bit. The boy is clearly head over hills." He saluted Elair with a half-empty tankard. "Well done, fake son."

"Thank you," Elair said without missing a beat. He didn't feel the least bit grateful, but in situations such as this, it was always best to keep talking. Pause for too long, and your silence might give away a secret or two.

Grati smiled and set his tankard aside without taking a sip. "Now. For the real reason you're here."

Elair's arms itched to cross in front of his chest. He resisted. "Yeah. That What do you want me to do this time? I'm all ears."

"I'd rather you were all brains. Though," the older man's grin turned salacious, "I don't think it's your mind that rich guy is after, huh? Though I suppose it's your private business. Just as long as it results in my getting what I want, and I want a few drops of your lover's blood. For research, you understand."

A shiver ran down Elair's spine. "Why? He's a regular base-blooded human with a regular magical gift. You might as well take mine."

"Ah, but I need his. Though if you're offering..." Grati procured a rusty blade seemingly out of nowhere and wiggled his fingers around the handle. "Come on, then, provide a sample. It will be interesting to compare."

This was as good a way to stall as any. Elair extended his hand like a challenge and barely winced when the blunt blade cut through his skin. He knew enough healing spells to deal with an infection and make sure the wound didn't scar. This wasn't a problem.

Keeping Miq out of this man's clutches was. Research, my ass. There was nothing interesting about blood. Not for studies. What made it valuable was how it allowed one to control the person whose veins it had come from, or those closest to them.

Elair's breath hitched.

He shouldn't have offered his hand.

He only did it because Grati already controlled him, but. But.

"There," Grati said, pulling the blade away from the gash in Elair's wrist and replacing it with a small vial. Thick redness trickled into the glass tube. "It's always nice to have some extra. By the way, your sister sends her regards. She's still such a willful child. Best give her no reason to stop being one too soon, eh?"

Elair really shouldn't have offered Grati his hand.

#warden's random scribbles #whumptember2023 #whump writing #my writing #writeblr #writblr #original fiction #flash fiction #snippet #champagne problems #fantasy #the thing about elair is he's book-smart but not life-smart #he does things with zero thinking and then he's like “wait a second” #all the other impulsive characters i've ever written combined look like paragons of strategic thinking compared to him #i love him but damn

i think they should’ve kept the weapon requirements for the hitman activities like they had in sr1. like stay with me here let me explain.

the sr1 hitman spawn system is busted, no doubt about it. it’s frustrating. and it can be even more annoying if the target spawns when you don’t have the weapon so you just gotta let them go. BUT i’d argue having to use a specific weapon adds to the activity itself; it makes it seem more like an actual hit. “hey i need you to take out this target, make it look like a mugging gone wrong by using a knife” “i need this guy taken out quietly, use a sniper rifle” like you see what i’m saying?? personally i think an ideal version of the hitman activity would have the specific weapons be an optional bonus, like you’ll get paid more if you use the weapon a client asks for, but if you take them out however you still get money/respect regardless. since i’ve been working on finishing all the targets i’ve had a lot of time to think about how i’d improve it😭

#honestly there’s elements from the first three games i would combine to make the best version of it #idgaf it’s still my favorite activity by far #it’s just fun i love getting to more or less strategize things #sr1 tag
