#it's real it happened don't fight it

[stuckinapril]

don't stress about that opportunity that fell through or that friend you lost or that thing you really want to happen but isn't. as long as you keep your chin up and try try try again, better things will replace your losses. i'm looking at my life rn and actually marveling at how every single thing i stressed about, whether it be an opportunity or a person, got supplanted w another thing that is so much better. it really is true that loss makes space for better things. these days i don't get sad when something doesn't work out. i get excited that i'm now open to so many other possibilities out there, so long as i actively seek them. you never lack. you just transition.

#operating from an abundance mindset is changing my life truly #i used to fight to convince myself of it but now that i see it happening in real time? it's so true and i'm soothed by it #this isn't even coming from a manifestation or religious angle bc i'm neither of those things #i just believe that a good attitude and strong work ethic can get you places if you don't let failure stop you #and don't allow the noise (other people's opinions) to weigh you down #text

FAMINE: That's one deep, dark nothing you've got there, Dean.

dean and his father. dean and his family. dean and how bad it is.

(via @closetoyou1970)

#spn #vid #mind the warnings on this one for real #woe! fruit of my rewatch be upon ye. #pallas calls this my 'deangirl coming out vid' which honestly. true. but those who paid attention know i've always been a deangirl. #also. after this no more deanwinchester rilo kiley amvs I Pwomise #anyway. i'm not gonna give a full commentary here but a big reason why i chose this song is that the narrator #is essentially dismissing her own problems and instead watching the problems of someone else #and i kind of wanted to play with that theme. this is the parallels show so let's do some parallels. lots of things happen to characters #that are Like Dean somehow. either in personality or circumstance. that we know or can infer happen to him. but we don't see it bc it's #not sayable. not speakable. so like for an easy one. we see meg being tortured in caged heat. she also talks about apprenticing under #alastair just like dean. so i show her being tortured [in a way that is sexualized and demon-specific] and reacting how she does #because i invite the audience to imagine or interpret that this has also happened to dean at some point. we just don't see it #so there are many dean parallels in this video. some obvious. some subtle but textual. some products of my twisted mind. but that's the way #i am using them to make my argument. #oh also: dean voice sam's eyes going black is JUST like when he used to fight with dad and wouldn't listen to me when i told him not to. #i guess also the point is that because it's unsayable. dean can't say it. dean can't even acknowledge it. and so it bleeds through #into everything in his life #that's why it's important that the song narrator doesn't take her own problems seriously. dean doesn't either.

That fic from Akutagawa's pov that remarked how although Dazai had left a bomb under Chuuya's car, at least that showed he had thought about him before going, while he never cared enough to spare a thought for Akutagawa.

#I think about it a lot... Something something the opposite of love isn't hatred but indifference #I can imagine Akutagawa and Chuuya fighting over Dazai when he left #“AT LEAST HE THOUGHT ABOUT YOU!” “HIS THINKING ABOUT ME WAS A FUCKING ATTEMPT TO MURDER ME AKUTAGAWA!” #... #It was supposed to be funny it shouldn't hurt me as much as it does......... #Trust me chuu/aku angst actually hits the hardest and you will never see it coming. #Because it’s not the kind of angst of “oh no my boyfriend has been beheaded by this magic sword that cuts through space and time ://”. #Chuu/aku angst hits right close to home when you least expect it and it’s so real in its inherent humanity it leaves you defenseless #ryūnosuke akutagawa #osamu dazai #chūya nakahara #bsd #bungou stray dogs #mine #q. #23/11/22 #I'm sorry I don't remember the fic of course I'll add the link if I find it again #It's just that sometimes you will read something in a fic and go “oh my God” and it feels like you've been run over by a bus #And other times you read a fic and it seems like nothing happened– #and then two years after you realize you're still thinking about that tidbit of lore and you'll be like “oh... oh.” #Like fics that rewrite your entire belief system without you even noticing for real

i am a firm believer of aziraphale sleeping with famous writers throughout the ages

“Tell me just one more,” Crowley says, laying with his head in Aziraphale’s lap and his legs hooked over the arm of the sofa. “A juicy one and I won’t imply you’re a filthy tramp ever again.” 

“You’ll say it outright?” Aziraphale murmurs, amused, not looking up from a book that looks incredibly dry to Crowley. Certainly not more interesting than he is.  

“I’ll be a veritable angel,” he says, knocking the book gently out of Aziraphale’s hand, making sure it floats down to the carpet with the bookmark moved to the correct place. 

“I’m sure,” Aziraphale says, dryly but with a look so fond that Crowley aches a little, smiling stupidly up at him. “Just one and you’ll accept that they’re no more relevant than all the glasses of wine you’ve drunk?”

“It’s all human indulgences,” Crowley says, dutifully. 

Aziraphale tilts his head to the ceiling for a moment, like he’s thinking carefully, and as much as Crowley wants to see the rolodex in that head full of brief entanglements with fascinating men, it’s probably better that he not be jealous of the long dead humans that Aziraphale has happened to spend nights with. 

Suddenly, a thin folder flies out from a shelf and Aziraphale drops it lightly onto Crowley’s stomach. 

“Visual aid,” Crowley murmurs, opening it to find a single piece of torn paper behind plastic, smeared ink and messy handwriting. He mumbles the words aloud then shuts the folder suddenly and says, “Walt Whitman?” 

“I happened to be in America. . .” Aziraphale starts.

“Why would you ever!” Crowley says, sitting up suddenly. “Be in America!” 

“. . .well, to meet Walt Whitman,” Aziraphale says, pulling a face, “but I had received some manuscript pages for Leaves of Grass that I needed to authenticate. And it turns out they were false but he very generously shared some of his own pages with me and then. . .offered me a drink."

"Angel, love, it's hard to not call you a tramp when you're letting yourself be seduced with manuscript pages," Crowley says, laughing when Aziraphale huffs and leaning in to kiss him softly. "What did you do with him?"

"It doesn't matter, dearest," Aziraphale says, voice slipping low and serious. "He was a glass of wine. And you're my. . .whole world."

". . .talk like that, I'm starting to think Whitman was the one who got seduced," Crowley says, resting their foreheads together, head feeling swimmy with all of it.

". . .not impossible," Aziraphale says, quickly, distracting Crowley very efficiently by pulling him into his lap.

been learning to play ironsworn (gritty fantasy ttrpg which you can play with a gm but is mostly suited for solo or small group co-op gmless play) after having the rulebook pdf for several years (stars finally aligned to remove invisible thing blocking me from reading it idk) because i'm on another solo ttrpg kick & i don't know what took me so long to get around to this game because it genuinely is exactly what i was looking for. years ago when i was playing through solo 5e modules i should have just been playing ironsworn (believe it or not, 5e isn't very suited to solo play and is extremely clunky when you try lol).

also though i have dabbled in some other solo ttrpgs, a considerable amount of them are journaling games which is fun but imo considerably more work (usually by the time i'm a quarter of the way through the journal entry, i know how to entire scene played out and i want to move on to the next gameplay thing, so i get frustrated and bored quickly. it feels like when you solve a level in a video game but don't have the coordination to pull off the necessary move so you have to spend 20 extra minutes doing something you already figured out), so i really appreciate like not needing to write something for the game to progress (ive been taking notes for my own record since im playing solo and thus am not really out loud roleplaying the way you do in a group, but i definitely could do that instead and not take notes and the game would still function perfectly)

& ive been playing by myself but also in the past ive played a lot of ttrpgs in very small groups which has been other games but is mostly dnd and like. we also should have been playing ironsworn so that having a gm was not necessary. have definitely played games where we had to adapt the rules soooo much to do something that is just base game included in ironsworn. plus it's rules-light enough to do pretty complex moves that pose difficulties in bulkier games (ever introduced someone to dnd and they tell you they want to do a sick backflip and catch something and then attack and you have to tell them that will require several different consecutive rolls and some creative liberties with how the rules are 'supposed' to let you move? you can just Do That in ironsworn. use the strike move and describe it. done!)

the one thing is that although it's rules-light enough to theoretically play any setting or genre (some with more difficulty than others), ive found so far that like... the grittiness and sense of threat is very built into the mechanics so that would be sort of difficult to work around or change (but i think it's great from a game design perspective). what i mean is like, okay: you start with 5 max hp. there isn't really a way to raise this max hp, you just slowly gain abilities (assets) that make you less likely to have to lose the hp in the first place, or that make it easier to recover. when you encounter foes, you rank them on a scale of 1 -5, and enemies on the lowest side of this scale do one harm to you, while enemies on the highest side do five harm to you. so even though encountering an epic enemy won't always be deadly due to the assets you have, they are ALWAYS capable of taking you down to 0 hp with one good hit. so the feeling of threat is much more present compared to games where your character starts to be able to just tank and push through a failure or huge threat.

admittedly also i'm playing solo, im still learning how to balance combat, and also i built a character who has NO combat talents and iron (the close quarters fighting stat) is one of my lowest stats so i personally am under much more threat than if you built a character who knew how to fight or who could do deadly harm. but also the other thing about combat is it's extremely difficult to maintain control of the fight; you have to score a strong hit to do it on basically all moves, and there's a really limited pool of moves available when you don't have the initiative, and obviously none of them really favour you. i don't know that this makes combat genuinely more difficult, but it does make you feel like the fight is always about to spiral out of your control. every second you let it drag without decisive action feels like it brings you closer to dying. like i said, this is a feature of the game design and not a problem in any way. just thinking about it because when i was initially learning i was going to try to supplant it into a homebrew fantasy world of my own but the tone just wouldn't be right. and that it is somewhat difficult to replicate the kind of worlds that i typically play or run for dnd, which tend to lean somewhat sillier and definitely much higher fantasy

but i like to try new things and tbh especially in dnd i find that i very rarely feel that sense of threat and when i do feel it, it has nothing at all to do with the actual mechanics and reality of the combat and everything to do with how well the dm sells it to me and makes it sound and feel scary and dangerous. which is a testament to what a good gm can do for you but i do appreciate the threat feeling more built-in and also being actually real.

#good idea generator #kas plays ironsworn #am giving it a tag because i will continue to talk about this. its my blog #idk i just find in dnd like. players often FEEL threatened WAY before they actually are threatened #which makes it really hard to balance combat because players treat evenly matched fights like hopeless death traps #so instead they do underleveled combat that feels boring for some hard to pin down reason #but like. the reason is even though you're nervous about the dm's description and the things the monsters can do #there is no real threat. especially in bigger parties where the players DOMINATE action economy. they are always in control #so of course it gets boring. it drags out so everyone can take their turn but it never forces you to make difficult choices #or to totally exhaust all your abilities. after awhile the combats start to feel same-y #because even if the monster is different. you never have to do anything different to defeat it #ofc this is a subjective assessment and also if youre reading this and we play dnd together this is not a gripe abt our table i love u #i think it's really easy to get trapped doing this esp in tables which like rp more than combat #because its also like. once you're used to a certain balance of combat if your dm suddenly threw you a big one #you assume that this is a uniquely large threat in the narrative as well (rather than a rebalancing attempt) #and treat it accordingly. which is to say with way too much caution because it isnt actually that big of a threat #so then as a dm when you have to maintain the feeling of threat and the mechanical threat #(especially when sometimes the mechanical line between 'cakewalk' and 'tpk' is razor thin #and is more about the initiative order and luck than anything else) #you start to prioritize the feeling of threat. which is imo the right call always #but its just after awhile when you feel the threat but nothing ever happens to anybody. the dissonance starts to affect the table #also balancing dnd combat as a dm is really hard and often requires a LOT of on the fly adaptation #because sometimes the CR is useless and you don't know how it's gonna do until the dice are on the table already #anyway. my point is that im enjoying how ironsworn handles this problem

Tron's Notes on User Children: Do not expect a child to wait to receive all instructions before acting on them. Any instructions should be delivered clearly and concisely before a child is given any opportunity to act on them. Expect particularly unforeseen results when the User children involved are related to K_Flynn82 or Alan-One. Especially when both are present.

Sometimes Tron gets more than he bargained for when he agreed to a task. Sometimes Flynn gets his questions answered in the riskiest way possible.

A big thank you (and nothing but compliments!) to @graedari for allowing me to use her Tron design in this piece!!

#Tron #Tron Legacy #Tron (character) #Sam Flynn #Jet Bradley #Tron Fights for the User('s children) AU #Given the premise of this AU this was bound to happen at some point #It just so happens that that point was sooner rather than later #Sam just wanted to spend more time with Tron (who may or may not have been his favorite character before meeting him for real) #Jet was just really confident (and a bit over-eager) in the whole following instructions to get them back out of the computer #And Tron underestimated the children (again) by letting Sam talk him into stepping into the portal at all #Not pictured: Alan and Flynn panicking when suddenly the majority of the Grid's security has just up and vanished with no warning #And Tron isn't responding to any location queries #(Don't worry he'll be fine - he's just going on an adventure) #Radj Draws

alright, so if we do end up fighting Kris in the last chapter of Deltarune, we will most certainly win. For we are the player, and we have the power of saving and loading. Debatably, Kris has this too, but either way the end result is the same- This will be a fight of iteration and endurance.

I hypothesize that this fight will have two (or three, depending on how you look at it) endings: You persist, or you relent. Persistence would likely look like a LOT of grinding, figuring out which actions in what order will allow you to "win" and take control back over Kris. And relenting, or perhaps convincing them to relent, would look like A: fleeing or mercy, or B: the same thing as persistence, but choosing to pursue mercy. The third option would be death, and subsequently giving up.

Now, we must remember that Deltarune is a 2018 video game developed by American indie developer Toby Fox. Deltarune originally came from Toby's fever dream portraying the ending of a video game. So there's every chance that rather than having the option to either fight to achieve mercy or simply give up and die, you can only die. That IS the only way to free the game from the player. Any other way, and you'd still be in control.

This option also would align with Toby's "there is only one ending"- The ending is persistence, and taking over Kris again. The other "endings" are just death.

This alone makes me inclined to believe that that's exactly how it's gonna go. The only thing that makes me doubt this is how Deltarune is a commercial venture, and that's a pretty unsatisfying "ending". But I could absolutely see Toby doing it anyway.

For we are the player. And if we fight for it, we WILL win. But winning means making Kris suffer, and the only way to avoid that is to no longer fight.

#this also works with chess theory #if we go down the line to Pawn #which is likely to affect Kris a lot‚ since they are. also a pawn #then that could get them the willpower to resist our command for long enough to initiate a battle (presumably with the others on their side #i initially wasnt too on board with chess theory since i really do think in the last chapter‚ we will fight kris #and kris IS a pawn‚ so you'd have to have two chapters with the same piece to end with pawn #the alternate way for this to work is you fight them in chapter 6‚ you can reach a compromise‚ #and then you all team up to fight‚ like‚ Gaster. or Toby. the real masterminds of this game- the creators #but that's REEEEALLY meta and while I don't doubt Toby would DO it #i don't think that's something he would have dreamed up in 2013 #especially with all the context #so. not too on board with that #QUICK GUYS INVEST IN THIS POST BEFORE IT TURNS OUT THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENS #OR THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT HAPPENS #nutdealer posting #deltarune #utdr #deltarune theory #deltarune analysis #sort of #theory #theorycrafting #that's just an inference #A GAME INFERENCE #or i suppose it IS a theory #this is what the recent matpat deltarune theory would be if he had the BALLS to go further with it #i mean. he does agree that we'll fight kris at the end. so #i dont remember much of the video‚ most of it was simply proving kris was sentient independent of us. which like. yea. we know #so i guess #that's just a theory

#I'm a bit late but :) #Mmmhh lots of thoughts about this episode. Nothing really relevant though lol #I like it... Mostly. Well‚ I like Atsushi‚ and I like Atsushi screentime. #I always forget that there's actually a one week timeskip within the Guild arc #I think these chapters were generally better executed in the manga. #But even then it's just... #Why do the make the Guild / Fitzgerald so. dumb. Why do they make them act so wildly irrationally and at the protagonists' advantage #It really gives villain acting entirely mindlessly to make the plot advance and the heroes win. It's really sensless. #I mean especially when Atsushi yielded. Why didn't Fitzgerald take his offer. For real!! #For real. He had NOTHING to gain from proceeding with his plan. He already obtained for Atsushi and the ada to collaborate. #Now they are NEVER going to help him‚ and that's agreat loss for him. #And idk. i hear that little Tumblr post in my voice saying “why would you complain about characters acting irrationally! #Do people irl never act irrationally?” #And yeah I get Fitzgerald was frustrated for losing Mitchell and his fight with Hawthorne. Okay I understand. #But that's definitely too much. That's him acting downright stupid at the heroes' advantage and it's just pretty underwhelming to read? #That said. It's just general notes I'm not particularly annoyed because like. That's just b/s/d to you. Dumbing down the villains a second– #so the author can escape the trap they put themselves into. Very Marvel-esque move lol. #On that exact same note WHY WOULD LUCY HAVE THE DOLL. #The doll is the whole premise for your plan working why would you not protect it with everything 😭😭😭 #I'm not getting in the Lucy / Atsushi scene itself. I love Lucy but I swear every time that scene gets played a femminist dies #(it's me. I'm the femminist dying every time.) #Mmmhh a couple more things. I dislike the ost choice in the scene where Steinbeck is torturing Q it feels so out of place #And I really don't get what's the deal with the Hawthorne / Fitzgerald convo it's so confusing to me.

Guys, we can all agree that Simon and Johnny are fan favorites (I love Alejandro and Rodolfo is my bebe but I'm speaking statistically rn). We can also agree that Ghoap (be it romantic or not) is the most popular relationship in whole mw2 if not in entire cod franchise. They have actual Character Development, they actually like each other, it just makes sense. You can't mistake them with anyone else.

That's why I think we should already be prepared for their death (probably one of them, for dramatic effects. Survivor guilt and stuff like that.).

Now let me explain.

Yes, they're the main characters of mwii. Yes, they're loved by fans. Yes, it will cause outrage in fanbase. Yes it isn't fair that they just gave us characters we love and now they're taking them away.

And?

This is a game about war. War is brutal. War isn't fair. War doesn't discriminate. It kills people, good or bad. Majority of 141 will never live till retirement. They're soldiers - dying is part of this job, risk is always present. It happens.

And sometimes it doesn't have any purpose. "They could live. Their death doesn't change anything, other than them being dead."

And that's why I think it will be mundane. I think it won't have greater purpose. I think it will be entirely avoidable. It won't be fair, but

Who said it would be?

There is no justice in war, violence gouged her eyes and now she's blind to suffering.

#plus it will definitely boost marketing #tbh I think that Ghost will die #only because everyone (or least majority of what I've seen) thinks it'll be Johnny #he'll die too just later #i think one would die in one of the first missions #after we see how their relationship evolved #so we can see full scope of the grief the other feels #going dancing with Peggy but Steve died for real #it probably will have greater purpose and will happen in epic boss fight but let me dream #controversial opinion #like #we don't need to be ready #we need to be prepared #I tried to be poetic in last line and am not sure how it went #simon ghost riley #simon riley #ghost cod #ghost mwii #call of duty mw2 #cod #call of duty #cod mwii #john soap mactavish #john mactavish #soap cod #soap mwii #soapghost #soap x ghost #ghost x soap #ghostsoap
