Me when that one character accepts that she does love other people and doesn't push them off how she used to

it's all been said before but something something riku is the element of change and kairi is the element of stability cuz riku wanted to leave the island above all else while kairi didn't really care she just wanted to stay with her friends above all else no matter where she was (and of course sora was kinda in between) something something the moral of the story here being that some things in life have to change while other things are meant to last and this is why both kairi and riku are both so important to the heart of this story cuz they represent that duality. we can't stay on this tiny island forever as innocent kids. but the island and what it means to us will always be there. y'know

#of course i hope riku can learn how to chill and find peace and i hope kairi will get to have her own journey of a sort #i just mean that overall what we've got is pretty good actually #i like it #the destiny trio may change in shape here and there as their lives change #but i think they'll always be together no matter what happens #that comment from nomura about how like. sometimes you have friends when you're younger and then when you get older things change #i don't think that has to mean you guys break up as friends. not at all! it just means what it means. things are different now #you're different people you interact with each other differently now but the love is still there throughout everything #it's a really really good message honestly. that quiet sort of pain is something that i feel most media never discuss ever #it's such a common feeling i wish more shows and games and stuff would include it #anyway. destiny trio beloveds #kingdom hearts #mine: kh

there was a scene in the manga where hakuno was being strangled HELP!! /j but even then hakuno was asking the attacker (julius) "why are you making that face?" because hakuno could tell that he was suffering deep down 🥹🥹😭😭😭 and we get a julius monologue: "i didn't want to accept that i still had these feelings within me. let alone have this guy see through them. i hate it..."

IT SAYS A LOT ABT HAKUNO METHINKS!!! and these lines too.... i love hakuno's heart sm istg 😭❤️ + how well written the hakuno-julius development is..!!!! hakuno being nice doesn't magically fix everything and there's a lot that happens ue ue uee 😭

i'm trying to keep this hakuno-relevant but PLS IM IN SHAMBLES BC the manga adaptation rlly told us that "if there was one salvation he could've gotten, it would've been having someone who could understand his agony."

and then cue hakuno kishinami-

#&&. out of #AAAA I HOPE I COULD SUM IT UP IN A WAY THAT'S UNDERSTANDABLE- #cuz ik a lot of my moots aren't v familiar with f.ate/e.xtra!! but i rlly loved these h.akuno scenes so 🥺🙏 #i had 2 post it..!!!! IT RLLY IS SO VERY H.AKUNO...... #/and also real quick- tysm for interactin with my silly lil blog despite that 🥹🫶 IT ALWAYS MAKES ME FEEL SO EPIC GRAHH #BUT YEAH #i rlly love the way h.akuno interacts with others 🥺🥺 u can tell she's vv considerate and perceptive #but also very eager to learn more and understand others as individuals- which is ironic considering her view of herself orz #but that's what makes it interesting!!!! #i also just love her kindness okok 😭😭 and how h.akuno becomes more empathetic and human as she interacts with more people #/MUFFLED SOUND AS I SOB INTO MY GRUBBY RACCOON HANDS

Me, attending the latest in a ridiculous number of funerals this year in the place of a childhood friend who couldn't be there, watching the lifeless body of an old lady who used to make me snacks in the kitchen when I was a kid be carted away forever while my friend's mother cries and tells me she's grateful I could be there because it felt like having the support of her own daughter, hugging her and talking reassuringly and not processing a single one of these emotions: ... I am going to write soooo much fanfiction about this

#''this'' being collective grief. because tbvh it's the main reason I haven't written very much this year (but will slowly start to) #I write to remind myself I am lucky. I keep telling myself this but even now when I feel awful I am so lucky #I am lucky that none of these funerals have involved very close family members or friends of mine #and I am lucky to be living in conditions with the space to write and space to grieve #and space to come together to mourn with dignity while people not that far away from me are not receiving the same privilege rn #I am lucky my dad was with me today and I spent the evening chatting with him on the terrace I am lucky he is alive I am lucky I am lucky #(apologies if this sounds like a robot malfunctioning lmao writing is just how I process things) #(and apparently I just don't seem to feel like I have the right to feel bad about any of this anywhere except my st@r trek blog hehe) #anyway. To stay on theme I shall say something about Trills :D #I imagine loss and grief must register very differently to them. very Non Linearly in the literal sense but also a highly abstract one #even I feel this massive sense of time warp between all these funerals; and this chest-crushing distance between me and my friends #how do Trills even exist #how do they wake up every day remembering all those friends and children and parents who loved them and they loved and are gone now #and still function #how does Ezri feel walking around with memories of parents that aren't hers (but were soooo much better than hers) taking care of her #does she feel comforted by them? does it feel like the people in those memories were always comforting HER specifically? #does it even matter who it belonged to originally if a memory is HERS now? #does Ezri mourn for any parents of past hosts more than she knows she will mourn for her own mother one day? #does having all this lived experience bring her reassuring amounts of perspective for a 20-something or just overwhelm her all the more? #idk; but I hope she learns to take comfort in her past hosts' memories of family eventually... #(...again. I am going to write sooooo much fan fiction about this lmao) #cw death

the talos principle 2 will be out on november 2nd. what will I even do. what will become of me. you will not hear from me for three days at least.

#what if it’s bad. I’ll have to kill myself. #Im curious if we’re meant to be the same guy we were in talos 1. bc there’s clearly some sort of time skip given. how many people are around #unless they’re doing some retcon thing where our player was not the first to break out but I think that’s silly #not in like a. player character is specialest boy way but canonically the idea of generations is about learning from who came before #but yeah so assuming this is a time skip to once more of these consciousnesses have been developed #why are there puzzles if it’s not a simulation #it doesnt make sense but I love suspending disbelief #does the world look like that bc of humans ? or these new people ? #like there is a purpose to why everything is the way it is in talos 1. #gah. anyway. questions for which there may be answers #on one hand i hope they don’t bring Alexandra back bc it would be cheapening #but on the other. I miss her. #ideally we’d hear from arkady. or even my best friend Nadya. #but I doubt they’d do this #Bc genuinely I don’t think most players have a conception of who those guys are #talos principle 2 will confirm that nadya and Alex are lovers. #talos principle #the talos principle 2

The unuki being less like Hell itself and more like Prometheus, a being that wanted nothing more than to help humans and was imprisoned for encroaching on the “gods’” territory in order to do so.

#Honestly I’m starting to think the Indoh punishment wasn’t one levied upon them by a divine power #But instead the village. #They’re the ones who fear Nounuki. The Indohs seem to greatly respect it #Just thinking about how they had their last names stripped from them. Or one forced upon them #To shame them for loving #(Assuming the wish was to bring someone back to life) #and the way the Indohs just kind of embody love to Yoshiki #Hikaru’s dad bringing light to a tense moment. Hikaru’s mom being very sweet to him. How happy gramps was to see Yoshiki #and of course Hikaru who was willing to give up everything (possibly repeat the original ‘mistake’) just so Yoshiki wouldn’t lonely #from what little we see they seem to all be such loving people #hikaru ga shinda natsu #hgsn #hgsn spoilers #once again the real post is in the tags lol #the summer hikaru died #maybe we’ll see Hikaru’s grandma too #other people read this story and are intrigued by the ghosts or whatever #Me? i just wanna see Hikaru’s grandma and mom. Really want to see more of his mom. Her only scene can’t be cutting up a watermelon #Anyway I’m hoping that since history is written by the victors and shit there’s gonna be a ton of obscured or completely incorrect info #In what we learned in the library scene #My hgsn shit

[aerithisms]

i think maybe i need to replay rebirth some time to look at this diplomatically because aerith is My Favourite and i might be biased but i think my biggest story critique of rebirth is that i wish they'd done a little more with her. given that this is the game she dies in i found it strange that they didn't push her into the foreground a little more since this is their last real chance to do that with her as a living member of the party (i'm sure she'll show up in some limited capacity in part 3 but dead lifestream!aerith is pretty different to alive!aerith i think).

i know that sounds like a weird thing to say when you consider stuff like them giving her the game's theme song to sing during loveless and the fact that the last chapter is basically The Aerith Movie but there is a strange lack of focus on her in moments where it feels like we should get more from her throughout the narrative. this game pushes tifa and cloud's relationship more in the mandatory story segments, and i LOVED what they did with that relationship in this game, but it felt odd that the same focus was not given to cloud's relationship with aerith throughout the story given that the ending hinges on him being so devastated by her death that he enters a delusional state of grief. and this isn't even a shipping thing bc as far as shipping goes i'm an aerti truther and i feel pretty equally neutral about both cloti and clerith as romances (if anything i prefer cloti!). it's about giving proper narrative buildup to the relationship that the game's tragic ending hinges on - a lot of aerith's most interesting scenes with cloud in the bulk of the game are optional, which i think is a weird thing to do given what the game is building to.

i also wish they did more with her being a cetra! again, the last couple chapters put focus on this but prior to that aerith is weirdly quiet about it. particularly in cosmo canyon, while we do get the lovely bonfire scene, aerith otherwise has a weird lack of dialogue when it comes to the lore dump scenes with the gi and bugenhagen. i expected her to feel some type of way about these revelations but any indication of that is at best subtext and she doesn't really say a lot about it. and for all that they emphasise aerith and nanaki's connection early on as beings closer to the planet, once you get to cosmo canyon there's a weird lack of payoff for it. same with tifa's dunk in the lifestream - i kinda thought aerith might have something to say about it as a cetra, and in fairness i think it's possible she did and the game is withholding some of aerith and tifa's offscreen interactions for part 3 (i swear this isn't even just an aerti cope lol i think the fact that they deliberately show them talking without us getting to hear it might be something they come back to), but i also wish we got to connect with this part of aerith's character more NOW, while she's still here, so it can inform our understanding of her choices and feelings at the end. i just find it kind of a bummer because aerith's complicated relationship to her heritage is a fascinating aspect of her character and her tragedy that i think goes a little untapped in this game, which means it's likely to go untapped in the story as a whole since she's. you know. dead.

#blahs #ff7 #rebirth spoilers #idk there are obviously a lot of character writing changes i love and adore in rebirth but i think they coulda done a little more with her #they put the focus on her bond with the party and her zest for life and that was fantastic #but imo they don't explore the other layers of her as well #and i know we will get more of her in part 3 but the effect of doing it in hindsight is different to doing it while she's alive #like when they go to icicle inn and learn about her parents there'll be a lot of focus on everyone's grief and the tragedy of her life #but what i wanted more of is how aerith feels about that tragic life as a living person. how she struggles with what it means to be a cetra #how does she feel about how disconnected she is from her heritage? angry? bitter? sorrowful? ashamed? #does she even like being a cetra? or does she resent the position it's put her in in life? #the game gestures at all of those in subtext but i want it explored i want her to talk about it!!! #ah well. i suspect if we do get flashbacks to those aerti scenes they'll all be about cloud but i'll still hope for something more from tha #that's my copium #or maybe an aerith and nanaki flashback where they talk about the burden they share of being the last of a people!! #i'd love that #anyway i still love rebirth's character work very much and on the whole what they did with it is very special. i am just an aerith girlie

#like if it is ptsd that means basically it's untreatable right? like the only way to really deal with it is i have to just accept that i'm #going to be miserable and awful to be around forever? #idk like thats why i was kind of hoping it /was/ something more uncommon like osdd because like. i know that can be hard to treat but i've #seen people make it work for them and make it a good thing even if it's hard. there are no upsides or benefits to having Just Fucking Ptsd #there's no sympathy for it if you didnt get it from combat (and even then lol) #and there's no real way to treat it except just learn to fucking avoid triggers and my triggers are FUCKING EVERYTHING #idk i just want a FUCKING SOLUTION and there is none #it's not fucking fair. it's not fucking fair #that my life is permanently ruined and horrible because my fucking mom decided that she needed to have a little mini-me #to project her fucking insecurities on instead of getting therapy #and now i'm never going to be happy! i don't get to have a good fucking life! i h #i have to spend the rest of my life fucking /coping/ with my own existence and having everyone fucking moralize me not wanting to do that #i'm a horrible person for even thinking about this stuff because me saying i cant recover probably makes other people in similar situations #think they also can't recover and i know that makes me bad and awful but like. it's different. #other people have friends who love them and care about them. i will never have that because i'm awful and everyone who gets close to me #realizes how awful i am and runs #other people have a chance at happiness even if it's hard. i don't. i'm never going to have people who love me and care about me. i'm never #going to be anyone's family and i can't fucking stand that

It just took me TWO WHOLE EPISODES to realize that Denise is played by David Duchovny holy fuck

#I’m loving her vibe #and I wonder how people feel about the character #I’m liking how most people are being kind and respectful #I’m also not sure exactly where she falls on teh trans umbrella!! #and I’m excited to learn more about this character!! #I hope she’s treated well #twin peaks #it has spoken

nothing pisses me off more than how figure skating reporters/news will constantly and intentionally leave out important details of stories in order to produce ragebait for people who don’t know anything about figure skating

#like i’m sorry but surya bonaly is NOT the hill you want to die on. #they banned backflips BEFORE SHE WAS EVEN COMPETING because guess what! #USFSA/ISU doesn’t want to deal with skaters breaking their fucking necks and dying on live tv! #or make young skaters feel like they Have To Learn how to do it and then fucking dying because of how INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS it is. #dont get me wrong figure skating is conservative and racist as fuck and surya bonaly faced some pretty horrific racism in her career #but banning the backflip had absolutely nothing to do with her and everything to do about not having skaters fucking die #also i’m not sorry but her edgework fucking sucked. like her jumps were incredible i can’t lie but her edges were. painful to watch at best #see also: everything regarding the sambo 70 and eteri #i am so sick and fucking tired of seeing people who don’t skate just hype up these incredible abused teenagers and hail them like gods #they don’t need fame they need HELP and eteri needs to be in fucking JAIL for what she’s done to SO MANY KIDS #i hope this sport gets more boring!! i hope i see less quads and less teenagers!! #what i want to see is competitive skaters who are still able to skate when they’re 25+ because their training was healthy and genuine #i want to see good technique and clean lutz edges and no full blade assistance on toe jumps bc thats what will save your joints #i want to see skaters with muscle and fat who have healthy relationships w/ food and their bodies and are stronger for it #this sport is so fucked. it’s a joke. i love skating but i wish i never had to interact with the community around it #ESPECIALLY those who have never gone through the sport themselves. stop getting off on abused children and start advocating for SAFETY #rosie speaks

the gas station attendant social link alternate universe is about the past and the future. it is about accepting you who you were and who you are and who you'll be. accepting every aspect of yourself, intangible and tangible. that maybe you are fractured, broken, fragmented, empty, torn apart, or one thousand different things. but you are there for yourself, whoever that may be. whoever they may be. it is about love and betreyal and kindness and malice and caring and hate. deliberate or accidental. it is about learning and realizing and doing something about it and doing nothing about it. it is about the constant pursuit of knowledge no matter how fun it is no matter how terrifying it is. no matter if it's a genuine drive or something forced unto the self as one is pushed to the ledge. it is about life and death and what is real and what is not. it is about accepting what is there and making the effort to make it different. it is about stagnancy and improvement. it is about being the same and about change. it is about friendships about family about relationships about the inherent love present in all of it. it is about finding yourself in someone and the choice to help the other to help the self. to fill each other's half empty cups and overflow with gratitude or spill out and become an emptiness so unbearable that the irony of a rush of tears come flooding out somehow. it is about potential and the need to pursue it and find it and accomplish it and grow and grow and grow and learn and learn and learn and live and live and live no matter what anyone says. no matter what you say. it is about god. it is about human. it is about the bond with the one god once called its puppet but lives in the role itself no longer can be called an actor. because of love. because of love.

fuuta currently having a LOT of innocent votes i am very happy about that

#starry #⋯ ꒰ა milgram ໒꒱ *·˚ #but also milgram is so complex that i cannnot be fully happy about it still #yk that post 'you love a character but you'll riot if they don't get punched at least once' yeah that's me w fuuta #but also it's weird to say that bcs i REALLY see myself in him LMFAO (not to an even remotely similar extent tho omg dw </3) #but yeah i understand him and with that said. yeah. yeah #he deserved the first guilty vote but please. i think he really does deserve innocent after that #i just hope he learns to accept his mistake/s.......... but it's still confusing. he's a victim of sorts but to what extent are his 'sins'? #i wonder. truly. i truly wonder. #milgram is so wonderful to me bcs wow. haruka was influnced by muu and him in the 1st and 2nd trials. different #yuno's 'crime' i don't consider a crime and thankfully many don't as well but i wonder too how exactly it is as well? #+ the fact is it happened multiple times and she just doesn't care at all. girlboss love her fr but time and time again and it feels a bit #more eh to me. ultimately though she can do whatever she wants! it's her body after all <3 love yuno fr she's the most normal here lol #fuuta. he is alike to kotoko and the viewers but he is deemed guilty (for the first trial) #perhaps his personality? it's weird to me bcs ofc i can't say for certain yet. but from what i do know #he feels regret. and i think even though he is obviously in denial. i think he knows what he did is wrong. and that he is at least somewhat #at fault. but a lot of people don't understand characters like that it seems! yeah... hmmm #i am obsessed with backdraft. also really happy this is the first time i've been here for a release even if i wish i knew this all earlier #a small theory (just a random one) is that w muu and fuuta? bully and bullied yeah but what if it was different at first #that fuuta was bullied. and muu was the bully (in their respective stories) and then the tables turned #just a small theory! trying to read the lyrics sobbing and also relating it to the other person in the pair #really glad he's being voted mostly innocent thank GOD #haruka is really a dilemma though... even i don't know what would be best. leaning towards guilty #but innocent ultimately? but there's the fact with muu that makes it really...... complex. #anyways really unfair imo kotoko was innocent and fuuta guilty in the first trial. love kotoko and her undercut but it's a lil #of double standards for me! even though i love a girlboss fr <3 </3 #tbh saying fuuta 'still doesnt think hes at fault' is stupid imo bcs he shows regret. all this time. regret. #and that shows that he - one way or another - knows he's at fault at least somewhat #fuuta kajiyama

i feel like the most important works on my brain (even though I write fanfiction and do fanart for other things, and they are more important to my day to day life) are night in the woods and omori.

like i can't over-emphasize how much nitw and omori changed me and my perspective on storytelling. nitw especially but omori was like getting punched in the stomach over and over and telling someone thank you for it. nitw was like

seeing myself in the narrative and not liking what i saw so it inspired me to be different. it was so honestly important to becoming who i am today.

#but i also really feel for mae you know? #like so many lines of hers shared w other people made me reevaluate my life #i hope that funky cat is doing well in the sequel we'll never get and i hope it stays that way #mae was also important in getting me to love myself #because i loved mae and because i loved mae #it meant i needed to learn to love me as well #bc if mae deserves good things and happiness then maybe so do i #i am much more socially anxious than mae but the sentiment is there #like introverted versus her extroverted
