As a fan of women and Rpgs I find it kind of funny how diametrically different my romance choices in crpgs are. To contrast my 2 favorite companies, let's look at Larian and Owlcat girls.
Larian
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Fairly conventionally attractive, not really even near the bizzare tier. If I'm honest these characters got a lot from their voice. All of these girls are because character, but these are like basic attractive traits. Lohse stands out by being like the only cheerful teammate in her game. And I swear to God it's really hard not to like Shadowheart after her development in Act 2
In contrast Owlcat has also has conventially attractive characters. But looks at these girls

While I'm not approaching monsterfucker tier by any means. It's weird that, especially with the existence of Karlach i prefer the split personality tiefling over her. And Cassia's extra eyes, gills, and clawed fingers have this strange beauty to them. The Arushale is just the excellent contradiction of a wholesome Succubus. (I have tried and failed multiple times to romance someone else in WOTR)
Anyways this is just me musing on fictional women I pike the writing of and especially how they

There is something so fascinating to me about the IDW comics and Frontiers both having an "Eggman's Artificial daughter" plot and then going in almost completely opposite directions

Ok no one mentioned it. I know we got a dose last episode but can we talk about how genuinely unsettling it is to hear Neo's body talking. Like it's not even the cat's voice. They've built up Neo as Silent for so long that her speaking at all feels uncomfortable. And the cat just capitalizing on the puppet aspect adds to the more subtle horror of it

I was not prepared for that level of emotional Rollercoasting. This week
Side note. Got to Love how Jaune has evolved from the "Yeah, Ruby" convo to "waiting forever for that"

Question for a Fandom.
I'm watching that Roku adaptation of The Spiderwick Chronicles.
Aside from the modernization were the Grace kids a lot younger in the book? I get the vibes the actors are all about 4 years older.
It's an interesting experiment going into an adaptation I know is an adaptation. But having never read the books. So what's the general consensus on this adaptation? Better than that old movie i never watched or a hack job?

So 4 chapters in and Harrow the 9th is essentially WH40k mixed with Disco Elysium and a lot more obvious lesbians. I can work with this

Anyone ever have that weird feeling about not wanting to put what you like on you blog even though you skim the tags for reactions everything? I don't know, it's just like even though there's distance with it being the internet and knowing the other person likes the same stuff...there's some part of you that is still inexplicably embarrassed? (Tagging with fanbases I do this to)

I swear these two feel like the opposite ends of the spectrum of one character.

Playing through 3 hopes. Man is Black Eagles a lot easier to root for without the 7 months of manipulation in the original route.

The urge to see Calamity as an AMV set to the massive power mix version of "With Me" is rising. You can just see Asmodeus singing it. Alternatively Larryen would fit well for the original version

Ok. I know we are are fucking ecstatic about the scene in the brothel, but holy hell can we appreciate how nuanced and layered the theme of Family is in this show
I know Silco's the villian, but damn when he's trying to raise Jinx you get the distinct impression he actually cares. He is a bad dude, but he's understandable. And knows how to use family against his enemies
Speaking of which the small details of Marcus regaining his morals, and being pushed over the edge to his love for his daughter.
Then there's Jayce and Caitlyn's sibling relationship showing a love but distance that has that has grown with Cait's independence. (Side note, make fanart of Cait in the Pepe Silvia format)
Then there's Jayce and Viktor, the science bros before council hoes team. They basically caused a revolution, to the point where Jayce in a bid to save his bids life kicked Heimerdinger, THE DONGER HIMSELF, off the council.
And Heimer is honestly a refreshingly written immortal, his concerns are genuine but his slow and steady perspective is easy to find frustrating.
And then there's the core of the show Jinx and Vi. This shit hurts man, watching Jinx getting a coping mechanism and being haunted by the ghosts of her family hurt. Seeing Vi respond to that flare was such an uplifting moment, then the "Are you real?" Made it crash back down.
It's just so interesting how in a way everyone in the show is motivated by their family
Cait to Break Away
Silco to uplift Zaun
Heimer to keep his city safe from Rune Magic
It's just... God i wouldn't mind if Riot just canceled the game and let this show progress their universe.
Side note: (how the hell is Teemo in a picture book?)
