LILIENNE, THE NET-PICKER — The firelight softens Lilienne’s harsh edges. She seems to bleed into the village itself. It is made of her, and she is made of it.
CUNO — The boy practically stuffs himself to the gills with spiced broth and soft bread from your own hearth. His normally sallow cheeks are flush with the warmth.
WASHERWOMAN — Isobel’s wizened face breaks into a sunbeam smile. Her hand still rests on your sleeve, and when she leans into you to catch her breath, you lean in to meet her without a moment’s thought.
INLAND EMPIRE — You are finally, *finally* looking into the true face of your god.

im sorry i have to rant im so fucking pissed
my exams end on 19th and I have to get rid of some books and buy some books which are quite pricy online so I had planned on going to college street on 20th and selling my books and buying the new ones at a cheap price and i was frankly really excited about it because all I get is a one day break to relax bcz i have to start studying for entrances from 21st so all I have is 20th and i wanted to spend it at college street and then get some food and basically have like a solo date kind of thing.
and i was so so excited about it i told my boyfriend about it like 500 times bcz i kept forgetting i've already mentioned it and it was literally on my mind a lott so i kept bringing it up and ik it seems like not a big deal cz i can just sit at home and chill too but i literally do not get to go outside my house. like- the last time i went out was new years eve and after that the only time i've gone out is to school or to give my boards that is it. my mother has some weird like problem wiht me going out like even if i tell her that i just want to go to our terrace for 5 minutes just to get some fresh air she won't even allow that she'll be all suspicious and like sTaNd In ThE bAlCOnY aNd TaKe FrEsH aIr like she herself doesnt leave the house (and blames it on me and my brother ???? when have we ever stopped you bro, she said I HaVe To Be HeRe To KeEp An EyE like im 18 i dont need to be watched 24/7 stop blaming me for choices you put upon yourself) and i just feel so suffocated ALL THE TIME i feel so overstimulated and im so sick of rotting on my bed and i dont want to wait for some birthday party or friends meet up to be able to leave my goddamn house i just wanted to go and have a fun day and get me some books thats it.
anyway so initially the plan was that my mom would go along but something came up so she wanted to postpone it to 21st and i didn't want to bcz i'd already be missing 3 days bcz of my boyfriends birthday, holi and my brothers birthday (all of which are important and i dont want to miss which makes me the villain apparently bcz i should "adjust" and cancel my "parties" instead of trying to stick to my plan bcz that makes me too demanding and selfish apparently) so i suggested that ukw why dont u go do ur thing which came up and i'll go to college street by myself...which is when the solo date idea came which i had really wanted all along but didnt bring up bcz i knew she'd say no but now there's a valid reason for me to go alone so like, its a pretty easy fix i can just go alone but noooo. First of all,
I've been to college street multiple times before so its not like its an unknown area to me
im going by metro which is quite safe
im going when there is stark daylight and i will return home much much before it gets dark and im literally 18
she never lets me go anywhere alone, not even take ubers alone if i want to get back from somewhere my bf has to come drop me everytime and then go backwards to his house which is so so so stupid and i never get to go out alone unless accompanied by family or by a male friend, so obv when i said i'll go to college street alone she refused to let that happen and started screaming about how 'if its so important to go on 20th bcz u dont want to miss a day of studying then cancel ur 'parties' and study then' and i was like no its not about missing a day its just that there's a very easy and logical fix to this problem which is i go alone and its not inconveniencing anyone so why cant i just do that but she will not listen to that bcz im 'adamant' and 'everything has to be according to me' bcz i found a viable solution to the problem. so instead of letting me just go she was literally ready to pay much more money and buy the books online, like.....why cant i just go bro??? (and she keeps telling me im a waste of her money bcz i will amount to nothing in life and my education was a failed investment or wtv so like now why are u wasting more money??? im literally trying to save the money that u 'waste' on me so just let me ???)
anyway i called my dad last night and told him and he was super ok with the idea he said its a good idea that i go alone and that he would speak to her but then today when i asked her if dad spoke to her she said yes, we'll go on 20th and i was like .....we? so apparently she CANCELLED her previously immovable thing for which she wanted me to cancel my 'parties', she cancelled that and agreed to go with me on 20th just so that i dont get to go alone- like ???????????????? what is ur problemmmm
so obv i was super annoyed and i went on a whole ass rant about how i literally struggle to even cross roads bcz i dont know shit about basic travelling bcz all my life ive been in a car and its a running joke with all my guy friends that i 'cannot navigate' and 'dont know any places' and obv??? if im never allowed to go anywhere then how tf will i know the places- the only places i know is bcz recently i've been paying a lot of attention and asking my dad stuff about what roads to take to reach certain places and when i go out with my friends i kind of try and learn a bit but thats it i've only ever gone alone completely alone to two places which is my beauty parlour thats 5 minutes away from my house and one bazaar one time that was 2 bus stops away, thats it. thats my extent of public travelling alone. and now im supposed to go to a whole new STATE for college and i cant even call myself an auto without struggling. and like- is this not a basic life skill??? like ok yeah its not rocket science and i will probably figure it out even if i start later in life but why not now? most of my guy friends literally go everywhere alone, why not me? and my dad agreed with all of this but my mom was just like "you'll be in the hostel only, no need to go out of the campus" like ARE YOU FOR REAL????????? and she's like "if u want to learn skills learn how to cook" like ok yes i will also learn how to cook for sure but i wont have a fucking kitchen in the hostel but somehow cooking is an urgent skill i should learn but going places by myself is unimportant bcz i should just never? leave? the? hostel?
anyway after much screaming and shouting my dad gave up and just cut the call bcz he doesnt want to get into an argument with my mother and my mother was being all suspicious like why do u hAvE tO gO aLoNe AlL oF a SuDdEn even though i literally explained why i want to do this alone but she doesnt think thats valid. so she refuses to let me go and i asked her for one reason why i shouldnt cz usuallt its always "no u have exam what if smthn happens" but now i literally dont even have exam so whats ur excuse now? streets will always be unsafe forever so "what if smthn happens" is not a reason to never let me go out without a man so just gimme one reason and she couldnt give me a single reason she just said "i said no, thats it".
and now she's gone off about how im useless and blah blah and "high maintainance" bcz i want books and "everyone else (some pishi's son) just studies online" and so the whole option of college street is apparently now cancelled and she's trying to set up a whole ass kindle account (half the books i need arent even available as ebooks) just because i wanted to go by myself.

I know you're not really passionate about OPLA, but. I there two actor who "rumored" Will cast as Crocodile around internet. And i wanna know your opinion about them. They are Oscar Isaac and Joe Manganiello, what do you think from your personal taste?
For the record I'm not really into IRL celebrities/actors, and don't know jack shit or who's who or what they've been in. Like had Oscar Isaac not being in Fucking Star Wars (an extremely mainstream giga franchise even a dumbass like me would be vaguely familiar with) I wouldn't even know who he is. Like Manganiello. Who the fuck is he? No fucking clue. That sure is A Guy I guess. Point is. I don't know anything about celebrities or actors, I understand rocket science better than this
And... I do feel like I just struggle trying to picture actual people in the roles of cartoon characters, like I have some kind of a disconnect there, putting the two together in my mind.
So like. I don't know. Like I'm sure either could deliver on the role just fine probably, and they could. Probably. Look the part. I guess? I think?? IDK makeup artists are straight up magicians.
Like looking at some photos of the two actors, I may be more inclined to go with Oscar Isaac because I have a vaguely easier time picturing him as Crocodile (based on photos where he has black hair that's kinda slicked back), but like. That could also be just the bias of me being vaguely familiar with the actor where as I have no idea who the other guy is at all???? So??? I dunno man I don't know what to think I'm sowwy 😭
Honestly the coolest thing OPLA could do would be to cast a trans man as Crocodile but I may be delulu wishing for that
(And I'm not saying that for Crocodad Propaganda or my evil Queer Agenda either, it's just that trans actors can struggle getting roles in general and so giving such an important, starring role to a queer person would be poggers as hell. Like generally speaking. And like, Crocodile doesn't have to be trans for a trans actor to be assigned for his role. But if Netflix feels like they "need" some kind of an "excuse" to cast a trans man as a character who is ~supposedly~ cis, Croc being trans being a highly popular, widespread and well-known theory on its own would be enough of an excuse for Netflix to just go for it imo)

i'm so excited for switch climax that it can't be bad to me. like even if the writing is ass i can delude myself into thinking that the event and story were actually good. i've already did it once with the arashi/adonis event tanabata event i can (and probably will) do it again.
YOURE SO REAL FOR THAT TBH
main reason im nervous in spite of having a similar mentality is. theres SO MANY things that switch currently needs imo. not only is sora and tsumugis relationship seriously lacking but we also dont even HAVE A PROPER SORA ORIGIN STORY!! we know he was a hikikomori and met natsume at some point but thats about it. and with the current !!-era stories i feel like we've been stuck in this loop of them having the same issues over and over again, saying theyll better themselves only to then repeat it. like how in magic lantern they made a big deal out of including sora more because he was feeling left out only for that to. Not happen. and natsume even acknowledging this in shinsekai. but then theres also the other side of things of sora WANTING to be more independent, he doesnt WANT to have to rely on his seniors whenever anything comes up, he doesnt WANT to be babied, SO I CANT HELP BUT BE A LITTLE SCARED!!!! this is supposed to be their CLIMAX after all, but theres still SO MUCH growing these characters need to do that the writers seem to have been ignoring in favor of ntmg yaoibait (WHICH I LOVE. DUH. BUT AUGH!!! I WANT SOMETHING MORE!!!!)
im tired of switch stories feeling Stuck........ they hold so incredibly much potential, and u can literally pinpoint exactly what it is the character needs development in........... but it doesnt happen!! i feel like wonder game put their !!-era in such an awkward spot, because it was a great "finale" for natsume and tsumugi, but lacking in one for sora. which yknow, is fine, because their stories arent over yet. but i feel like happyele just. doesnt know what to do with them now. WHICH AGAIN!! MAKES ME A LIL MAD BC ITS SOOOOOOOOO CLEAR WHAT NEEDS IMPROVEMENT!!!!!!! but they just KEEP NOT DOING ANYTHING WITH IT!!!!!!!!!! GIVE US SORA LORE! GIVE US STORIES FEATURING ONLY SORA AND TSUMUGI TOGETHER! HAVE THE TWO OF THEM ACTUALLY BOND AND GET TO KNOW EACH OTHER! INCLUDE SORA MORE! STOP GIVING ME THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER!!!!
