straight up not respecting some of the alleged p2 characters' ages as they were given on the VA's papers bc you're telling me this is a 27yo man on the left & a 35(!)yo woman on the right? you jest. this woman is in her 20s at most. she doesn't have a wrinkle of age on her face. just worry. i know men age like milk this is taking the piss. i know patho 2 is the "hot blemishless 20something white(-passing) women" game but at this point own it. don't try lying to me. she doesn't look a day past 29. got friends below 25 with more winkles. in the first half of the 20th century too. where would she be getting her anti-aging serums.
you're telling me this woman who's a chronic worrier, dealing with chronic pain, who smokes like a locomotive to cope is allegedly 5 years Older than this guy who's been drinking himself to sleep for like 5 years.
(mike's mic voice) don't piss me off

turns out i cannot leave things as just a "maybe" even when my body has decided to turn against me
apologies for the untranslated phrase in Dog Gone (Continued) but my lack of skill with japanese combined with the fact i keep randomly feeling like i'm going to faint has made me decide to stop banging my head against the wall and just. give you what i can instead.
EDIT (01/09/2024): HI HELLO THESE ARE SUPER OUTDATED! the first two have been officially translated now, and I gave the third another shot since they skipped over it! this time I was actually able to figure out what Olimar was saying!
bonus:

having gone through (and still in the process of going through) the thousand different processes for changing my legal name and gender marker in every conceivable place those things could come up, one thing I’ve noticed is that being trans wreaks administrative havoc. the particular process of changing your name because you’re transgender isn’t strictly unique, because people change their legal name(s) for lots of different reasons, but there is a systemic unpreparedness for dealing with the scenario of a user or client or patient whose name and gender has changed simultaneously. the most common response I get when I ask somebody at a front desk if I can change my name and/or gender in their system is “huh, this has never happened before!” and then they go talk to their manager. and so to get anything done you have to continually assert that it’s possible, you have to explain that you’ve changed it elsewhere, you have to carry around legal documentation to prove that it’s happened, and you effectively become a perpetual edge case for any given administrative system you exist in. I know, intimately, how my university’s IT systems work in terms of field input because it’s so decentralised that changing information one place doesn’t change it in a lot of other places, and the act of having to be registered at a university with two conflicting legal names means I have to have an ongoing relationship with their IT help desk. People talk a lot about how we have to become medical experts in order to assert our own identity, but you also have to become a fucking IT expert too

*Hm-hmm as I stroke my chin and then stroke Simon's*
It should be a ~tad~ softer, I'm thinking. I've always been especially careful with Simon's face shape because I'm trying not to make it identical to Trevor's whose chin is a little flatter to indicate his age.
My other challenge is drawing Simon's face from his left side so there's just a bunch of takes of that here (but I kept covering his chin by accident, so much for personal references uwahah).

Random thing I enjoyed that they changed in adapting the Wingfeather books to a tv show (that’s also in the short film but anyway):
~*SPOILERS*~ if you haven’t read book 2, “North! Or be Eaten”
The scene where Leeli sings Yurgen’s Tune with the dragons on the cliffs in the first episode and Yurgen pops up over the cliff and just hovers over her. In the books, the dragons are watching from the Dark Sea, but they keep their distance from the cliff walls, so while the kids still experience the magic of Leeli’s singing and the dragon’s memories, there’s no enormous creature hovering there speaking directly to them.
Why I like this change so much is because at the end of book 2 we get the exact same visual, except this time Yurgen isn’t just curious, he’s trying to end them, he’s ready to straight up destroy the ship they’re on. And as he hovers there, massive and intimidating, tiny Leeli gets out her whistleharp and stands there in utter defiance of him and plays Yurgen’s tune, which calms him down enough that he doesn’t just immediately kill them.
(And then Leeli reaches out and touches him, the first person to touch a dragon in epochs.)
And the parallels of these scenes, when we have them both visually done, are going to be so powerful and impactful. The first episode of season 1 and (what I assume will be) the last episode of season 2 with the same visuals but in vastly different context.
I can’t wait to see it.

for the fruits and vegetables questions: 🍉 🍑🍋 for Reed?
@wishbonemotel [ oc interview questions: fruits & vegetables ]
🍉 [WATERMELON] What will your OC take to the grave?
So I've already outed him about it in fic, but he doesn't willingly tell anybody about the whole Margot killing a stray dog incident. It might be something he'd let slip if he's very drunk and up in his feelings, but it wouldn't be in a coherent manner and he'd probably completely lose his shit before actually saying what happened. He's more secretive about that incident than he is about the dog he has in the Commonwealth being a synth replacement- and he only tells like 3-4 people about that.
🍑 [PEACH] How do they show their kindness? How kind are they truly?
He's kinder than he thinks he is. He frequently helps defend Minutemen settlements & gives them supplies and caps regularly despite not actually being affiliated with the Minutemen, he helps basically everybody that asks him even if he's kind of an asshole about it, and in general he has no issue lying to cover for people and turning a blind eye to petty theft - he's also very willing to steal things for others if they need it.
🍋 [LEMON] What is their kryptonite/ultimate weakness?
Pretty obvious answer here, but: Margot. Animals are a weak spot for him in general but he'd do literally anything for that dog. I'm not even kidding when I say I kept the whole "synths don't age" thing solely for Margot so I can play around with post-canon storylines without having to either put him through that kind of loss or just kill him off immediately after canon.
