Another bg3 thought dump but I've been thinking about this all day. I think a big part of why I love the Boat Scene in Gale's romance (or at least the version I've played), and really Gale's Romance in general, is bc there's so much potential for nuance.
My Tav, Zephyr, isn't particularly faithful to any one god or the gods in general (though she does enjoy studying faerunian theology), and so in theory she's not against opposing and maybe even deposing Mystra. But she knows that many of the "gods" of the modern era were once mortals, and until the cycle can be broken she doesn't want anyone, least of all someone she cares about, to take that risk and lose themself.
When I first got to the Boat Scene, I couldn't help the feeling of dread I got bc I was sure Gale and Zephyr were about to break up. Bc I knew how strongly Gale wanted this and for (mostly) the right reasons, but I also knew Zephyr wasn't going to budge. And I feel like in many games, that would be that; characters disagree, they break up. Even though Zephyr would be against it for Gale's sake, bc she loves who he is, not who he could be.
But the dialogue is so interesting bc it actually lets them argue about it, while also giving the player to stay with him anyway.
"This doesn't have to be the end for us."
"But I could be so much more to you."
Now true source of Gale motivation is revealed. He feels like he's not enough. Which allows Zephyr to reiterate that he is, and they stay together and even grow closer!
It just makes both characters feel very real to me, and I appreciate that they can talk and argue until they get deeper and deeper into why the other one feels this way. It's almost like how couples actually are in real life!

Ouhhh I got tagged in a Put My "On Repeat" Playlist On Shuffle & Post 10 Songs That Come Up tag game by my pal @excaive time for tunes and putting my ass on blast
I've linked yt videos for every song, but some of the vids have flashing so I have also included warnings where necessary!
Onto the list let's goooo:
1.La partida - LUNA KI // wow.... starting off real strong 😭 lunka ki's music is a guilty pleasure of mine, i love dancing to it when im alone in the house. It's rly fun
2. Made to be broken - H.E.R.O ⚠ HUGE FLASHING TW FOR THE VIDEO!!! there are no yt alternates for this T^T here is the spotify link for this song if you are photosensitive ⚠ // It slaps <3 I have three songs from this album in my repeat playlist and theyve been there. Since january.
3. Voices - ALESTI, Loveless ⚠ Mild flashing for this one ⚠ // TALAS SONG TALAS SONG!!!! This tune rips hard and im obsessed and also the album cover is pink and blue god bless
4. Cynical - H.E.R.O // ANOTHER song from these guys. This one slaps hard too. "Show me my heartbreaks, run, repeat my mistakes"
5. Emotion Sickness - said the sky, will anderson, parachute // I love this tune sm and also its a CF song. I'm normal <3
6. Love me like my demons do - FALSET // Swag tune, I love the high pitch lyrics a lot
7. Without me - Dayseeker // Ough Dayseeker my beloved... they are one of my fave bands. Rory is my fave singer I think. All their songs are certified Coping songs but they also slap hard, without me is in my griefcore playlists. This one also starts soft and then kicks in HARD
8. Nigredo - The Sidh // It's techno and bagpipes, what's not to love. Also the title means alchemical decay which I think is dope as fuck. This whole album rules too I recommend it.
9. By the sound - Caskets // Some of the lyrics for this one literally make zero sense but also some other lyrics hit like a fucking truck there's no in between. "When you wake up, don't waste your heart in mourning me" kills me
10. Dreamstate - Dayseeker // Another dayseeker song that destroys me <3 "And maybe when the night comes I'll find you in another world" also kills me
Bonus song!! my current most looped song:
Back to you - ILLENIUM, All time Low // I literally keep listening to this song so much. Like I cant stop listening to it. I would like to make an art... comic thing for it eventually because it has a lot of personal meaning to me but I'm not sure when I will be able to do it. But man its good!! It's good!! All of the lyrics got me fucked up man
Andn tagging uhhh whoever wants to do it honestly. You specifically reading this. Give me your swag tunes 👆🎼NOW! (if you'd like to)

i think about lando's editing style so much despite the fact that idt he edits videos anymore afaik
i was going to put this in the tags but it kept ticking me off that i was continously hitting the character limit so its here now \o/
tbh the main reason i'm so endeared to lando's editing style (read: his editing style from ~5 yrs ago that i have been referring and will continue to refer to as his editing style even if it isn't a current one) is that i go "Oh i've 100% made that Exact same editing choice to make that Exact same joke before." eg: there's a specific lando log from 6yrs ago i saw recently bc it appeared before me on my yt home page &. god. man i am hopelessly endeared. for i too would do the master chef intro interlaid w/ hard cut clips of me failing to cook
another eg: ok maybe i shouldn't admit that i've watched the 2019 rookie of the year video way too much specifically just to giggle at lando's edited video but uh. yeah. heart emoji. in my mind there's a lot to dissect between the default title card + background music that immediately starts off the video and the pink sparkle w/ default cursive font on all the transition cards as well as the explosions + airhorns + self referencing. between these two examples there's a lot of snappiness made w/ all the hard cuts. the editing is amateur but from personal experience it's not easy to time everything properly so there's obviously not a lack of thought either, and it didn't rly hit enough w/ alex and george but it hit for me plenty and this is what counts. it's a bit short and the humor probably doesn't hit the same for people who haven't watched like ten mil videos fuckin sue me tho (dont) i liked it
at the end of the day it's less about the editing, more about the insight it gives into lando. but fuck it i'm not a psychologist i'm here to giggle. and i did. tldr i think people with wit and humor are hot, this is my thesis forever

Ok love what you’re doing to gif jin daily however could we change up the clips you’re posting? I feel like I’ve been watching him apply cream for a week straight 😂💗
hi!!!! so let me just be really frank you with -- i'm doing this for free! and i have two (2!!) days off a week, and i have to make certain content last longer so i HAVE clips to post. for free!!!!! to me, as jin is my ult bias, i don't even care if i watch him put face cream on four days in a row -- i'm just happy to see his face and i love and miss him so so much!!!!!!!
so i'm sorry if sometimes things feel repetitive, however!!! as of right now, i've made over 700 gifs!! and we're only in the 200s out of 543 days!!!! so think about how many MORE gifs i get to make during this process!!!!!!!!!!
so you'll forgive me if i stretch things out sometimes so i don't 1) go insane hunting out a million things to clip, 2) use up my 48 hours of free time making gifs non stop like a machine, and 3) get creative block and stop the series altogether when i really, really don't want to do that!!
i'm a very very nice person and i'm very very kind and i never really say anything, but this message (as kindly intended as it could have been) really just... does not read the way you think it does, nonnie! so please remember that people like me -- content creators -- spend all of our time doing the things we do for FREE! i have to find the content, clip the content, color the content, and upload the content all by myself! and i never, ever complain, so please just think about these things before you complain about 3 gifsets (out of over 200!!!) being from the same sequence :) thank you so much!

Remember that vid of some of the Habs visiting Petrys house and Cole jumps on Petry into his arms
rEmEmBeR tHaT ViD anon i hope you know i just curled up into a ball on my couch shrieking that video is EXACTLY what i was referencing here in the tags and i-
do you mean the video where cole calls petry dad? where they just like,,, smile into each other’s mouths really really close together?? where cole is completely absorbed in gazing at petry with his arms around his waist until he turns around to see petry’s wife and they scream like best friends reunited??? no actually i don’t remember this video i’ve blocked it out of my memory for my own good 🥰
