Hey i know you already make a Thenamesh hunger games au and i just can't keep my mind of it specially now, Can we ask for a part 2 of it maybe when they already in the battle field.

Ikaris was not invincible. None of them were. Thena said so herself.

Gil stared him down, his chest heaving from running through this bizarre fabrication of a tropical jungle. He needed fresh water - any water - and fast. And now he was facing down by far the deadliest tribute in here.

Well, maybe the second deadliest.

"Oi," Ikaris tipped his chin at him, "tadpole."

Gil almost rolled his eyes before he remembered his order to never take his eyes off the enemy. He gulped. Ikaris was not invincible. Ikaris had a terrible temper.

"You volunteered, right?--for your nerd brother," Ikaris grinned at him, completely menacing. He certainly had the handsomeness and charm of a Capitol trained career tribute. "Y'know my bitch companion volunteered for her brother, too. She's the reason I'm in here."

Ikaris had a terrible temper. He was easily baited. Gil gulped, "I-I thought you careers all wanted the chance to fight in the Games."

"Yeah but not 'cause blondie got me stuck here."

Thena was right, Ikaris would kill anyone, and she was top of his list.

Gil kept his weight on his feet light. He wasn't as agile as Thena, but he knew he was definitely stronger than Ikaris. Ikaris had showy muscles for a specific strength, but Gil was certain he could out strong-arm him. It was the murdering that Ikaris would have the upper hand in.

"I've seen 'er talk to you," Ikaris continued. "You know where she is?"

Gil's blood chilled. That was why Ikaris hadn't launched a spear right through his heart on sight. He was hunting for Thena - his biggest competition - first. "No."

"What'd she promise you?" Gil didn't like the smirk on his face. "A li'l, uh, fun, eh?"

Gil's stomach twisted.

"You help me find her," Ikaris fixed his cold blue eyes on him, "I'll let you make good on that promise."

"I know she'd launch herself out of the arena before she would let you touch her."

Ikaris had a terrible temper, and the effect was obvious and immediate. He snarled, baring his teeth.

Taunt him, tease him, anything necessary, Gil heard in Thena's voice. He glared at him more, "that what pisses you off the most? That Thena doesn't care for your Golden Boy act? That she's the only girl in the world who doesn't want a damn thing to do with you?!"

"Shut your filthy mouth, you loach!"

Gil gripped Ikaris' arms as he charged in at him. Thena was right about his technique being simple and sloppy, too. He used brute strength, but he didn't have skill like she had. Gil had sparred with her a few times during assessments; Ikaris was nothing in comparison. Heavier, but nothing.

In retrospect, it was probably Thena doing him a favor and letting him show off his strength, even then. She had a weird way of looking out for him, and he only hoped he would get to pay it back somehow.

Gil twisted Ikaris' arm around, wrenching his wrist the wrong way and stealing his spear for himself. This would help him fish if there was any water to be found at all in this hell.

"Coward!" Ikaris roared at him as he scrambled to pursue him, injured or not.

Gil kept running. He didn't want to kill anyone in here. Not even Ikaris.

"Get back here!"

Gil squeezed his eyes shut. Ikaris was faster than he was. He sprinted harder, but he had been running this whole time. He didn't have the stamina of someone who had trained for this their whole life.

"Open your eyes!"

Gil skidded to a stop, slipping slightly on the jungle floor. He twisted to look behind him, vines and leaves in his way. He saw a flash of gold, and Ikaris a few paces behind him. Then Ikaris had a knife in his shoulder. Two--three knives driven into Ikaris' already injured side threw him to the ground.

"Move!" Thena turned, screaming at him over the drum of blood in his ears. She reached out, gripping the shoulder of his sparkly uniform suit and dragging him with her. "Come on!"

Gil let her basically drag him with her. He looked at her hand. She had her knives, a blade of any kind being her signature weapon of choice.

"Gil!" she barked at him, pulling him behind a tree and shaking him. "Look at me!"

He blinked, trying to make sense of what he was seeing. He had been fighting Ikaris. But now he was looking at Thena, with her blonde hair in a tight braid, her pretty green eyes, her pale skin. He was in the jungle, with Thena.

"Gilgamesh," she shook him again. This was why Kingo told him that Thena had so much skill; she didn't have the personality for tribute gifts. She was beautiful, though. "Gilgamesh, look at me and listen."

"I am listening."

"Where are you?"

"The Capitol," he repeated dumbly, just staring at her. But the edges of his vision were coming back, slowly. "The Games--the dome."

"Where is your home?"

"District 4." Home, in his little shack he shared with Phastos, Dad buried on the island and barely scraping by, just the two of them.

"Who are you here for?"

"My brother." Phastos wasn't a Fighter. He was a Thinker--he was gentle hearted, and kind, and he wouldn't have survived in here. Phastos had someone who loved him. Phastos had found love, somehow, in a world like this--a love that was already hard enough. "I'm here for my brother."

"Good." She nodded sharply, slapping him on the arm. She had a sparkly jumpsuit on too, but hers looked better than the rest, Gil thought. She gripped the two - mismatched - knives in her hands. "Let's go."

"Thena," he blinked.

"Here." She said it softer, pulling out a tiny canister from the side pocket on her leg. "It's not much, but there was some rain dripping off the tip of the cornucopia."

Gil gulped down what little water it was. She was right it wasn't much, but by all the districts it was more than he'd had, and he needed it.

"We have to keep moving."

Gil swiped at his chin and licked his lips, eager for every little drop. He looked at Thena's back as she started walking ahead of him, head twitching every which way to keep a lookout for them. "Please tell me you had some of that too."

Thena didn't even look over her shoulder at him. "Have you found any food?"

That was a no. Gil huffed, gripping the spear he had gotten from Ikaris. "I was looking for water. Even if there are weeds at the bottom, I can make us something edible."

That did get her attention. She nodded, saving her words and moving along.

"You're here for Druig," Gil said, and finally got to see some sort of human reaction from her. "That's what you keep telling yourself, right?"

Thena pushed some foliage out of their way, seeming to head in a very determined direction. "Might help keep you sane."

Gil understood that well. He cleared his throat, making sure not to trip on any roots or get caught on any vines. "Phastos...he's really nice. He's funny, too. He's not that strong a swimmer, but he, uh, he like--he invents stuff? Like h-he made a contraption that helps us get the nets in faster. Like an engine that makes the arm on the boat into a fishing rod reel."

Thena paused, holding a leaf up for him to follow. She was smiling. "He sounds like a good kid, Gil."

He smiled at her too, holding up the leaf for himself. She was shorter now that he was closer to her. "What's your brother like?"

Thena waited, really seeming like she was debating answering him at all. But she sliced through a vine in front of them and sighed. "Druig is four years younger than me. He shouldn't have been in the draw to begin with, he was just born early."

He was born early, and already as young as he could be to be in the draw--no wonder she had volunteered for him without hesitation.

"We have no one else," she said more quietly, looking around again. "I made Ajak promise me that if I died, that she would make sure he was taken care of."

"I'm sure he will be," Gil said quickly. They were pretty hollow words. But he meant them all the same. She looked at him just the way he would expect, too. But he smiled, "if he's as smart as you say he is, right?"

That seemed to surprise her. She smiled again, that pretty one that made her a crowd favourite. She smiled with her teeth; he thought it was cute. "Smarter."

#Thenamesh Hunger Games AU #girrrrrrl I have so much #this is very on trend #Ikaris sets out to find Thena first #because either he kills her first #or he kills her last in a much harder fight #there is no middle option he knows this #Gil runs right into him like FUCK #uhh.....youre ugly #Thena hears about it though and tells him he did well #it definitely saved his life to get Ikaris riled up like that #they get to the water and Gil is like I'll make us something to eat #Thena entrusts first watch to him #he's astounded she trusts him #but they both came here for their brothers #he doesn't nod off at all just keeps watch as Thena rests #Flickerman shows a montage of Gil gazing at her lovingly and says ooh perhaps some romance on the battlefield? #Gil doesn't know of course but Kingo snickers because aw the boy would be so shy and embarrassed #getting shipped with his crush on national television #welcome to the child murder channel

WHO SAID THAT!?!?

#victor beeps #i don't think termina is easy per-say. i think it has a good difficulty and yeah some things are trial and error (a lot of things) #but MAAAAN compared to the first game you could say it is easy cause F&H 1 - i'll be honest - a slog #like the THIRTY MINUTE TIME LIMIT in a ROUGE-LITE. HELLO????? i can't find my ASS in that time here much less a whole MAN #and a lot of things are just up to RNG and game knowledge so it's all up to a literal coin flip at times #like my marina run was STACKED. got a good weapon early and started with necromancy and dodged so many attacks it was great #meanwhile levi's run was awful from start to finish. i got nothing good i had terrible death mask spawns it was a struggle #ANYWAY i'm excited for the update. i trust they won't just ''enemies hit harder you hit softer bye.'' like it's said #i DO think some things need nerfs...o'saa's tree is a little busted #IN CONCLUSION! DO i think termina is easy? not really! on it's own. compare it to the first game and yes. yes it is easy #at the end of the day a lot of it comes down to rng and game knowledge so while the game may feel impossible at first- #-by your second or third playthrough you should have a solid grasp on a lot of the most important things #(like Needles. the pav/marcoh/tanaka scene. how to save samarie. ect) #and there is an easy(er) mode! don't let people shame you for only playing it on that difficulty! #ANYWAY HIIII GOOD MORNING :3 this is the first thing I saw after waking up and i'm insane about termina rn sooo :] #if you read all this hiiiii i love you~ thank you for listening to my silly video game talk

#doodles #happy screms #the blorbo run #curses why are they proficient at finding a wide range of good food- #shes a simple survivor - she sees lots of food her brains go <.< #even post game hallownest doesn’t have a lerge steady food supply. hornet is getting TREATED here #*large #it’s like slowly gaining a creatures trust. look i am gently giving you good food- #-please dont bite my hand. except the creature is a traumatised bug that has a weapon and will use it

Ok but thinking back to how I was in elementary and middle school: I had such disdain for other kids who broke the rules, that I irrationally hated a whole bunch of kids — kids I would have made good friends with — all because I couldn’t stand the fact that they engaged in conflicts with, and affronts to authority figures or standards.

It even went as far as internally mocking a kid my age — calling him “Mama’s Boy” in my head — over the fact that his mother whispered comments into his ear, which he mumbled unintelligibly into the mic, and then would fall asleep as if dead on her arm. I perceived his inability to give comments on his own, and his sleeping, as moral failings of both mother and child; because I wasn’t raised like that. And maybe, those feelings also came from jealousy. I was expected to fight off sleep all the time because I could read at a college level in third grade, and could theoretically understand the material presented at the meetings despite it still being inappropriate for my age group.

I was so far deep into the “bad associations spoil useful habits” mindset that it made me hate my fellow neurodivergents — kids I would have been friends with — who maybe couldn’t hide it as well as I could. That is beyond fucked up. Now, I work with those very kids I disliked so much as a child, and guess what? They are my absolute favorite people to be around; and many of them remind me of myself.

#exjw #ableism tw #I’m also just very uptight about rules anyway; so the whole cult thing did not help that part of me At All #I often find myself more concerned with doing things “correctly” than I am with doing the right thing in non-serious scenarios #and it’s kind of scary because like… how much of a sheep am I? #Would I torture someone if an authority figure I trusted ordered me to because it’s what I’m “supposed” to do? #Most of it comes from a desire for consistency: If [x] happens; then do [y]. So every time [x] happens; [y] is the correct response #and this — like the laws of physics — Cannot Change #Except of course the real world is vague and variable and there is a lot of grey area to work with in coming up with solutions #so doing [y] when [x] happens may make things worse than if you do [z] instead #This makes a lot more sense when you consider I was taught how to play chess at a very young age by my father #who bragged about being a “chess player” with regard to real world problems #Yes chess is strategy; but you’re also playing on a grid and your movements are entirely restricted by the rules of gameplay #My father can’t leave the cult that traumatized him because he loves Jehovah #he can’t go to the meetings to serve the god he loves because it triggers his trauma #he can’t talk to a therapist about his religious trauma to get over it because he would be defaming Jehovah #If life is a game of chess then he’s checkmated #But here’s the thing: the game is imaginary and the rules are made up #Viewing real life as a chess board is extremely unhealthy for your free will #Which is why in this essay about Nineteen Eighty Four I will—

yknow i was, for a while, really not into almost any of the characters in motr. i mean, i ended up liking almost all of them, because theyre interesting and well-written, but none of them are like. characters i would want to ROMANCE, yknow? none of them are my type

anyway turns out there IS one character in the game thats my type, and its Barqujin. i love her so much. wife city. what a dream.

every time i play a dating sim i forget the fact that im only interested in characters who hate me. dont look into that 😭

#ok they don't have to HATE me. that is a humorous overstatement #i just find it kind of offputting when characters are really Into You right off the bat??? like jeeze... gimme some space #you dont even know me and youre already flirting?????? get outta here #(the thing is that people dont sincerely flirt with me irl and certainly not before they know how funny and smart i am) #(im not hot!!! and people who are trying to act like i am are historically. almost always trying to trick me) #(so its a thing that immediately gets my hackles raised. i dont trust like that) #anyway thats just my taste. thats why my favorite love interest in a game is Shane Stardewvalley

god i wish i had someone i could gush to about pillars of eternity

oh baby I knew it from the fuckin moment the addc was introduced that there’s just no damn way they DIDNT have some legally sketchy shit going on with the alzheimers/dementia patients and unethical clinical trials. I feel so vindicated right now

#im on chapter 9 of judgement #I know my SHIT when it comes to human experimentation and medical ethics #and criminal investigation in general frankly that’s a big reason I was so excited to play this game (I’ve taken college classes in this) #but yeah the moment the addc is introduced and we see the layout of the place and details like the gigantic dementia patient ward right next #to the research facility and such I was like mm….. that can’t be good #I was rambling to my friend during that like. yeah they could probably get away with doing basically whatever they want with these patients #because of all the conditions to research alzheimer’s and dementia make for some of the easiest to strip subjects of their autonomy #making informed consent and whatnot most likely not an issue and complaints about malpractice or what have you extremely easy to stifle #ie; if you are a patient there you are probably just straight up trapped. no one’s gonna listen to you you have no autonomy and- #the sad but true fact about the situation is that people don’t have the time/resources/capacity to be caretakers for their alzheimers/ #dementia-ridden loved ones so a place like this- a leading research/medical facility said to be on its way to finding a cure and changing #the world- would seem like the perfect place to send a loved one in need of full time care and trust that they will do nothing but good #so it’s a great setup to get patients who are likely to die as it is- who have no autonomy- who have no credibility- and have nowhere to go. #I couldn’t help but think about that like. immediately after seeing the ward #so. here we are. let’s see where this goes #judgement #judgment spoilers #rambling #I have a weird special interest sorta thing in medical ethics / human experimentation and I have a character who literally teaches a #class on the topic (and is a surgeon) so. that’s why I’m like. especially intrigued right now

posting actively anti KOSA stuff on my instagram account which i know is followed by at least one person who is explicitly pro KOSA... who i also work with...

#nightmare.personal #his post regarding it is deleted so i hope he has changed his mind but #man. you have GOT to understand the harm KOSA is going to do #when will people stop looking at censorship as something where you can throw exceptions at it #and expect it to work #if you give them the power to make the internet safer then you give them to power to make the internet more unsafe #& if you look at our cultural context... well. you have three guesses to figure out which it's going to fucking be #it's ALWAYS 'oh we shouldn't censor... EXCEPT' and 'oh this is illegal... EXCEPT' #how are the people going to find out they're exceptions? how broad are these exceptions going to go? #i know playing with absolutes is a dangerous game and censorship is CONTENTIOUS on this site #but holy shit i am begging these people-- begging this man really-- to realize what we're working with here #i have been irreparably scarred by the internet but the terrifying thing about it is #the places that scarred me looked alike to the places that healed me #overwhelmingly queer spaces in both conditions #and so i can sympathize with the terror but also you cannot strike out what hurt me without effectively taking out #what has gotten me this far. that's not something we can do as people. #i wouldn't trust myself with that #and i most certainly would not trust the government.

Watched the RWBY x Justice League crossover with my wife and ngl it wasn’t bad! At least for the RWBY fans. I can see this being not the best for JL fans

But the RWBY content we got from the characters was honestly really nice to see! It felt like a sorta breath of fresh air after V8 and V9 destroyed me psychologically and physically

Basically it’s a good movie if u wanna see somethin stupid. U really gotta just let things happen as they happen, and accept whatever’s goin on as fact. A lot of nodding along n just rollin with the insanity.

I will say the best part for me? The fight scenes oh they were ALL bangers, loved each and every one of em.

#masky says #just a lil ramble wanted to get this outta my head before I conked out #tho I will say I’m sure people are gonna find the weird lil ‘jealousy’ thing with Cyborg n Ren- #-directed @ Nora to be weird #tho tbh I found it fuckin hysterical #like these two are at each other’s throats for no reason #meanwhile Nora’s over here like ‘I should’ve just been a lesbian…’ #like pls get this girl a proper romance Ren u gotta step ur game up jealousy ain’t cute baby #we got a lot of good bees content too so trust me they didn’t retcon shit #they may be in their V1 fits but they’re all still themselves #and that’s all imma say so I don’t spoil too much! #definitely recommend it if u want a pretty goofy movie #it’s only part one so I hope we get part two? cause I’d love to see what this is building to #but mostly again for more RWBY content #cause lord knows we need to take what we can get here

Feels like theres an insane missed opportunity about irida character in the game cuz shes picked as leader after the war, FOR A REASON

#z rambles #< clearly do not fucking like everyones interpretation of her character #Okay silly little inexperienced young girl irida is fine but idc for it its not a trope im like excited for but its there #Still I just don't like how they made her to be this. I wouldn't say naive but clearly incompetent leader with the tropey protecting bs #but like. It don't make sense then why the fuck is she leader when theres other a LOT more competent people #There must be sth they saw in her that was like oh yeah shell guide us to a better future. We will have a life better than the current one #I'm just annoyed about it idk why I choose to be annoyed about it now #I do feel like no matter what everything. Protecting her people wouldve already been her intention to begin with #So making that the resolution for her at the end was kinda redundant #I feel like there's a lot more to her than whatever tf they gave her #Or that's cuz I'm crazy and whatever WHATEVER #from here on out I'm talking about Irida separated from the game > #Like. Shes picked as leader and sinner went with her probably cuz for what? Sinner doesn't stick to people they don't find worthwhile #Maybe theres this interest of like huh so the pearls have u as the leader now they must have a reason and I wanna see how it plays out #And I think during their first conversation sinner might've caught themself thinking oh this is just like great grand leader #Mostly cuz from their idea of uniting people and building a safety community and lack of trust in their power and knowledge #But idk there's sth there that made sinner caught themself reminiscing about the past #Anyways back to normal stuff > #Its just annoying cuz now even the whole palina is kinda petty about not being picked as leader shit even worse?? #Like obv palina can be petty about it that's valid of her but writing irida off as this inexperienced clueless kid zero goal is just.... #There's sth about it that set irida up for failure from the start and I don't like it #Also with this writing. It must makes palina case so much worse? Like she's not just petty here. Shes just. Kinda a bad friend #Also cuz palina character works on the tough love bs and I DO NOT like it one bit so #Its weeeeirddd #But pla is a really short game and it didn't establish much for our imagination and their time so #Its awful but it gives me room to imagine and. Complain.
