Satisfying our pregnancy cravings by going to the Spice Festival after work! Also, say hi to Zeke who was in the area too!
In the end, Renee made it through the spicy dishes and won the challenge! Everyone else suffered from the spiciness though. Renee bragged to Zeke about being the champion and then brought up Robbie because she knew they were friends through Connie.
Honestly, she wanted to hear how her brother was doing; both hadn't kept in touch now or initiated any conversations. "Well," Zeke chuckled, "Robbie is just Robbie, isn't he? He's been busy with work, but he's cool." They then leaned in to share a secret, "I promise things will get better between you two. Y'know, since dating he's not as cold as before," Renee did not expect that answer.
getting extremely self indulgent tonight and thinking about alice and kim and their relationship and how many different fun iterations of it i looooooove thinking of. he practically raised her as she was a junior officer and she worked under him religiously and now theyve surpassed teacher and student and become amazing friends. or they didnt meet until later in their careers and alice was nervous about meeting a legend in the RCM and kim was apprehensive to work with someone younger but they realized that the other was just a regular person and now they get along just fine. or alice is still an officer that distantly pines for his approval. maybe she has a little work crush on him. maybe she knows he's gay because she is too. maybe they have a father/daughter adjacent relationship maybe they have a messy close fag4dyke friendship . they could be anything. come with me into my beautiful mind
Spoilers for Alan Wake/Control games and DLCs: one of the things I really like in Alan Wake 2 is the confirmation that, no, Alan can’t create something out of nothing. There were implications in-story that supported that, but it was good to have that be a big part in the sequel. The AWE control dlc easily made it seem like Alan himself had a role in the events of the game and the formation of the FBC, and, personally, seeing it through that lens cheapened a lot of the game and Jesse’s story. Instead, having his writing influence the Hiss and try to manipulate (even out of desperation) Jesse/the FBC to end Hartman and get help, fit right into plot and conflicts of Alan Wake 2, with Alan being sympathetic, but also an asshole for trying to change and control people’s lives in his writing.
Here is me posting up some more of my fan work from last year. I love the HOTD series and was super inspired to create some medieval-tapestry-style graphics/illustrations based on the book (and series).
I really love what they did with the characters (especially Alicent’s portrayal. - very very good) in the TV series, felt it was way more nuanced and interesting. Can’t wait for season 2!
Oh yeah, you can also get this as a print from my etsy ~
I have recently become obsessed with Alan Wake II and subsequently the rest of the Remedyverse and I thought: why not practice my graphic design? The relationship between Alan and Alice is such an interesting exploration of the muse and the artist, art and the subject. Also, the ways in which their role in these dynamics change throughout the games is so fascinating to me. But I digress, there’s so much more to them than their art. I would go further into my thoughts, but I don’t know if that’s something people would want to read about.
