hiiiii muse page list update post i meant to do earlier but then i had icecream and did other things instead peace sign

this is for the full one on my page, srry i dont have it elsewhere/on my pinned yet. eventually. peace sign. as per always my multi is a billion times messier than my other blogs(guy who cant shut up)👍👍👍 atm the most proper writing will be happening on akira. probably

added general links of the gbf main story archive, and the a3 & prommy of wizard main story translations👍

on that note added sakuya & misumi (a3!) & chloe, figaro & mitile (promise of wizard) except figaro is mostly type0 verse & mitile will likely lean toward gbf au for a lil bit. thats not to say theyll stay this way (im about to reread+finish main story pt2), its just that i unfortunately am obsessed with type0. i will probably eventually put the rest of spring troupe on my 'wanna pick up' list....(person whos oshi is omi

on that note i should make a new type0 oc i need a silly class9 girlie SO bad. that was the foolery secret intel class right

i can not explain why type0 lives this much in my head

natsume (natsume yuujinchou) is on the list too now. lanna & lumina (island of happiness/a wonderful life) are there for now we'll see who else i add. none have descriptions yet, i know i have one for lanna & natsume from olds blogs but :[ i didnt wanna today

updated mika's (gbf) page with the text i wrote a while back, i'll revise it in the future. fenrir, morphe&phoebe, thelonim has events&fate eps linked on their pages now. emu has the official playlists of wxs main story & her first focus event added.

none of these links are meant in a 'check these', but rather, if you ever get interested in any of the media/characters, there's places to check. i should add the wxs digest anime to emus oh my god i forgot about that one

all the new charas are gonna take some months to be implemented properly...<3 i havent started rereading a3 still & i took a break from natsuyuu when my dog got surgery in february. they're there cuz i felt like updating the lists with links, and figured why not add the rest too. lots of descriptions are missing still. 'then why even add them' because faty was alrdy sending me stuff for figaro so why not actually put him on the list sunglass emoji

i added it on the muse page too, but if u dont know where to start then emu & fenrir are always good choices👍 once my emu break is over ill get back to all of that. phoebe is also a good choice thinking about it...

#stardust speaking ! #i think about my ask box here like once every two days tho. i wanna get caught up on akira & then ill divide my attention between here&gran #and maybe ebfore im done w akira too................................we shall see:] #ANYHOW I THINK THATS ALL #i would put a 'fastest replies' scale for my muses but i also dont think itll be a worry.....??????? #i think emu is the most liklely to get stuff. since shes my silly icon and header still. and then the gbf muses #and thats about the order of how ive been here overall (well mostly with ic dash comm stuff the past months but #i cant imagine itll change too much even for proper interactions #unless u jumpscare me that u know of my more lesser known media (very welcomed) #any type0 fans in chat #ok thats all i did. i didnt even get to the akira reply i wanted to do today too much stuff happened

" He just fell asleep ", finger held before their lips in a 'shh' motion, carefully saying the words in a whisper. Next to them on the couch is Mithra, taking up way too much space and still holding onto their hand, but they didn't mind. Had the situation been different, they might've, but knowing how they had been away longer than usual they had already been prepared for something like this.

#i. dont have a ic tag<3 #been thinking about this for days i think thsoe 2 are SO funny #the entire fact that they took mithra.

was reading that article of all the Star Trek women ranked by gayness and im so offended that all the tos women were ranked near the bottom.. it’s not their fault they were written by sexist men in the sixties....... chapel/uhura are THE iconic fem4fem trek couple also literally kissed on screen. What is hetero about this

#their only evidence was that they both crushed on spock like... #ok first of all uhura flirting is joking because they’re each other’s gbf #and chapel is bi. next #they obviously don’t understand/appreciate the subtextual intricacies of tos #might draw uhura/chapel out of spite #rand does have straight vibes tho thats fair

I like the way you explain Kama's personality and lore its way easier for me to understand. I feel like fgo makes things super complicated for no reason and i feel kinda dumb;;

dont worry its ok, kama’s character in fgo is ABSOLUTELY (and disgustingly) flawed and if people dislike them because of that, i can totally understand why and i do not blame them.

first because the pseudo-servant system is stupid and second, because the team behind kama has hazuki minase as one of their writers and takeuchi forcing stupid crackheadery on redrop. i hope that they leave redrop more freedom for their summer alt, but anyways.

the pseudo-servant system is stupid as all hell because in some cases, the original chara has more control but then they turn around and said divine heroic spirits explicitly state that their vessel is someone entierly different from them. i dont care about the amount of reincarnation excuses they give, look at gbf’s shiva and then come back to me lol how come vritra was able to create a vessel to transport themself into ? out of thin air ? this is called fanservice. 

minase wrote kama’s valentines scene and it reeks. pick their first ascension when they ask you to choose your favourite and you’ll understand.

ooku’s whole premise was interesting but once again, some details were genuinely badly executed and what’s worse is that they can hide behind the pseudo-servant excuse to push said stupid agenda. sorry but beast iii’s two sides being “the girl” and “the woman” is dumb as hell and nasu should’ve picked “the man” and “the woman” if he wanted it to have more impact because it would’ve also been in complete correlation with hindu religious themes of gender separation/union and it would’ve also put both sides as equals. kiara calling kama younger than her makes no sense because the god inside is literally as old as time but you know. i like to think that she’s just referencing kama’s state as a beast being younger but we all know that she’s talking about the mix of kamadev and sakura as kama assassin. sorry but that’s stupid. if dudes on 4chan also call this whole thing stupid when theyre usually busy jacking off to everything then you know its shit.

the pseudo-servant thing is honestly the only lore aspect of kama assassin that makes me want to leave this fandom when i’m morally at my lowest sometimes. if only it was better written, then maybe i would actually defend it. it simply ruins everything that’s good about them. kamadeva as a god has enough iconography to stand by himself and he doesn’t need some bullshit excuses. that’s also why i’m so starved for kama content that’s not porn related. because the canon already forces that shit down your throat. worst thing is, i can’t even say anything because kama is a pseudo-servant sakuraface for cash and a “fallen evil beast thats in love with you even if they have a wife lollll” for cash too. sorry for the unprompted rant but even though i owe fgo one for making me interested in kamadev, kama assassin is bad because fgo has problems. and i’m very well aware.

I am not into the franchise and know nothing about him but I sure understand how you could fall for Eugen. Esp in your style. 👀

Call me a non-fan simp. Just from the sideline thanks to you. Use this message to gush about him or the franchise if ya want.

AHH TYVM ANON IM SO GLAD I GOT U TO APPRECIATE HIM, ty for the chance to talk about eugen in detail!!! 😈

ok so these are some of his info which ive gathered/observed myself from the game so far!!!

-he’s got both SR and SSR versions (and a summer alt!), wields a rifle as his weapon and earth is his element in-game

-he is 50 years old!! also stands at 5’9 (i honestly thought he’d be any taller than that hdjdhjfjf) and according to his official info he likes sweets!!! how about that 😳💕💕 he also enjoys fishing, which i guess is natural for him as he was born into a floating isle w lots of scenic beaches/body of water

-dad/peepaw figure to MC’s airship crew haha except for his actual daughter bc he’s got some Family Issues going on TM (thats another story for another day though but like he’s trying to work it out again!! which im glad for that part (honestly why are the dad characters i seem to have as faves got some sort of family problems helpppp) )

-he’s just bright all around and got a gentle smile (WHICH I LOVE SO MUCH PLSPLS and everytime his in-game sprite does it i just go bask in a little gay moment). Very good at giving advice n encouraging his crew during dire moments. but he’s got a lot going on behind that personality of his 🥲

-bonus: he’s VERY good buddies with jin and soriz who are fellow Big n Strong middle-aged men (both are playable too!). they’re basically my fave group from the whole game i just LOVE their dynamic and teamwork sm, lots of entertaining scenes esp in their side stories 💙💙💙

there’s sm i have yet to learn about eugen tbh since im not even halfway yet into the main story 😭 (but ive already spoiled myself on some parts out of my own decision bc im an idyot who will dig any lore for their faves 😔💕)

that’s all i can share for now i don’t wanna make this longer HDKDHFJKF but yes in conclusion: EUGEN GBF I CARE U SM i would love to have his hand in marriage /lh

Opinions on some BBB ships

Idk done this on twt but like shoulda put it here as well i guess

Elementals: tbh i'm kinda ok w it?? like um it doesnt bother me as much BUT the unnecessary amount of it and certain,, uh,, contents and tropes does bother me a lot hhhhhh But like as long as most of them are not within reach then ok  Tho i rather not stumble upon it if possible

Boifang: hello i would d!e for them uM LIKE THIS IS BASICALLY THE EMBODIMENT OF MY OTP TROPE AND JUST??? 1000/10 BEAUTIFUL??? THE POTENTIAL THE TROPE THE INTERACTIONS,,, *chefs kiss* do i need to say more 

Boiya: um not very much agree w it bc i see them as like siblings also the ship and trope seems kinda cliche so like meh :// rather not see it tbh

Fayi: not that much against it but i like their interaction its more like bffs who also bash each others heads sometimes skjsjs

Boyi: (yes unfortunately this exists) i kinda mostly avoid it but after that one interaction with a shipper i literally cannot stand this ship  

Goboi: see em as Gud Bros like Hunk and Lance but im fine w the ship also they cute

Gbf: mMmmmM i love the potential i love these boys im fine w both platonic and romantic 100/10 would draw 

Faya: i never actually thought about it so like?? not much potential but im ok w it

Yayi: I see em as like very gud bffs but its cute as a ship also bc QUEENS

Ramenzo: ok this one came outta nowhere *squints* but like i slowly grow attached to it the potential is delicious and now im like hhh hot,,, second otp would definitely die for SGBHCSVCGF

Saifang: SHBGhsvFG Brotp also like platonically or romantically idc i just wanna see em interact pLS

[This one’s a bonus but let me scream]

Saiapi: *incoherent keyboard smashes* THIS ONE'S ACCIDENTAL I DO NOT ASK FOR THIS BUT I WOULD K!LL FOR MORE CONTENTS,,, THE MORE DEPRIVED I AM THE MORE ATTACHED I GREW TO IT AND THAT MEANS A LOT NOW IT HOLDS ME IN ITS CLUTCHES NEVER LETTING ME ESCAPE AS I SQUAWK AT CERTAIN PPL ABOUT IT *looks at certain someone* ALSO DYING OVER THE POTENTIAL I COULD EXPLAIN ABOUT IT ALL DAY BUT ANYWAYS I SURVIVE ON THE RECYCLED SCRAPS COLLECTED AND IS NOW DESPERATE,,, AGAIN THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE  A CRACK SHIP AVFGCSFCD BUT NOO NOW I MUST SUFFER

Uhh guess thats just it

#idk anymore #uhh what to tag #boboiboy #tbh i would actually write essays about each ship but im lazy #probably make a whole powerpoint #so anyways just tagging some ships not all i guess #boifang #b0iya #saiapi #i miss em #hhhhh #me trying to contain my bucinness

There are definitely issues on the gbf reddit :( I remember seeing a person comment something like: "isn't it kind of weird to make bikini versions of children? Also why does a 6-year old have breasts? Thats weird" and they were bombarded with comments about how they were being dumb and "virtual children aren't real". Since then, I've felt super weird about going there. Also I hate the way people talk about Ladiva and Cag :(

they’re SO fucking gross abt the child characters i hate it. iirc their policy to ‘not allow politics’ was made in the wake of a huge argument about that but that obviously means making transphobic jokes is a-ok but saying ‘trans rights’ gets your post deleted because trans people existing at all is a political statement to these people

*turn around in shorts that say its time for my fuckin opinion on the ass* hey sweaty read to choke on my bns hot takes for uh lets see here uh ... t-two thousand words....

first of all... im pretty easily entertained so if u fail to do that its so like something has gone horribly wrong. i can enjoy pretty much anything halfway decent and i hate nitpicking on shit. but nitpicking implies small problems and sometimes the problem is the whole fucking thing. but man the direction bns has been going in is like. it really be like that, it really be just the most blatantly boring and uninspired it could go and here’s my fucking video essay that i will not do you the honour of being read aloud since the force of my opinion would crush your skull like a grape if spoken in the real world. 

first of all. i generally didnt have a problem with act1 bns story, i honestly thought it had some cool characters, some COOL as fuck cutscenes and as a person that loves lore juice a lot of the characters held a lot of promise and the diary was a fun read despite being the absolutely worst most stupid way to deliver any sort of lore content.

the circular narrative, the tight ending and the callback to all the characters was pretty well-rounded, a little but hammy but adopting the hongmoon kids nad becoming the master of your school was pretty novel. i really felt like there were so many new places to go with this dynamic, like bns could do something new by giving the mc more stakes in other characters rather than being a complete wildcard drifter.

but they keep doing this fucking thing were they repeat story themes in a way thats become incredibly unwelcome. i can understand why npcs would become recurring characters, why certain objects etc are still relevant but the fact that beat for beat the endgame again is divine mandate, mushins there, namsoyoo in danger and someone gets killed off for the sake of idk tragedy i guess. 

i think the worse thing is that the game tries to be tongue in cheek about its tropiness and normally id be like ok cool but the tropes are executed just so fucking blandly and soullessly its kind of insulting like. they really absolutely did not fucking try in the slightest for this one. not at fucking all. 

ryu saying ‘oh it would be so bad if you passed out form poison at an inconvenient time’ and the obvious death flags from bunah and bunyang are incredibly grating when you have absolutely no fucking stake in the story, know exactly whats coming cause the writing repeats itself over and over and know the exact same beats. 

at the very least most people can stand tropey anime, hell you can even ENJOY it if you are absorbed into the world and characters and the tropes are executed well. but this story is wholesale just same fucking shit slightly different npcs. it feels like they tries to manufacture drama in the most blatantly cheap way and it really lets itself down. i could honestly see them killing ONE of the kids for cheap and dirty tearjerking but man all of them leaving you alone again with jsy is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo unebelievably lazy. we have entered asian tv drama levels but at least those are fucking interesting. even the dance number in this act was shit.

i think the most annoying thing is that bns is one of the first mmos i played way back when and i still genuinely like the game up to a point and i like the world and characters. im literally always moaning bout how they did fuck all with the eight masters but gave them the barest most tantalizing hints of interesting characterisation in the diaries. but i think that’s all you need. it doesnt need to be 24/7 ballz to the walls worldending tragedy shock tactics to be entertaining. it somehow feels like they played it so incredibly safe that they looped around and made the worst decision possible and i just really wish theyd hire just your random ass average fucking ln writer cause theyd at least make shit entertaining. like the long form story telling of a truple a game thats reaching nearly 10 acts now should definitely be better than this like. what a fucking way to drop the ball.  

now. my second bone to grind. tell me why they actively REMOVED? ALL SIDE QUESTS? what kind of game, especially an mmo would fucking remove its OWN lore? why would that make any fucking sense? especially for how lore-light this game is but how vast its world is like sidequests felt like the absolute BARE minimum way to furnish this admittedly underdeveloped world. they at least gave us that slight illusion of depth and some of them were even fun! interesting! i still remember the sidequest where you go on a ‘hostage rescue mission’ to save an npc’s son who was kidnapped by lycandi and the npc who fucking gave you the mission murders his own son in front of you cause he was bumpin with the lycandi like. it’s not fucking riveting writing but it gave some more context to the places you visit, it’s SOMETHING about the supposed people that inhabit the world and it clearly makes some places more memorable than just ‘cool sky desert’, ‘cool sky city’, ‘cool sky village’.

im vaguely aware that this was done cause it ‘confused players’ who thought they had to do blue quests to level up to endgame and firstable idk why bns pushes endgame as the only ‘good’ part when its like in my humble opinion really fucking boring. you know people play mmos for different reasons? not just to reach lvl 100 super tier omega hongmoon thornbuster breakre 5000 and be no.1 in pvp. just looking flashy and good combat isn’t really enough to compete these days. im guessing its a push to the esports scene but also like you really want to serve one side better by doing relateively arbitrary thing that fucks over pve ppl? like? 

also there ARE genuinely people interested in the world and content and story as exemplified by all the oc and various comics and even even some official webcomics like i honestly dont think nc at all in any way nurtures that side of their mmo nearly enough especially when you see how healthy and thriving ff14 and other communities are in their oc scene. the sheer fact that people still stuck around despite the experiene of playing bns being patently awfully optimised and an uphill battle in every single way is testament to the fact that maybe some people just genuinely like the game? gutting it is absolutely antithesis to that.

i actually cant wrap my head around purposefully deleting lore cause it makes ‘grinding to endgame’ too confusing like does the story take that low a priority? the fucking ACTUAL game and the story is less important than people mindlessly burning themselves out to endgame, grinding dungeons and buying lootboxes like you cant do in literally every other game anyways? why would you get rid of some of the only shit that makes your game even slightly different? like im not out here saying it was the most revolutionary great shit but at least the side quests TRIED to give a modicum of flavour to bns. like they at least attempted to add to all the zones and make them places rather than set pieces were story happens to you then you leave and never come back. it doesnt even have to be revolutionary amazing writing to do that it just needs to be serviceable to give even the slightest sense of depth.

but for some reason rather than idk. just tell people theyre just flavour text and theyre not compulsory or just toggle on/off the fucking blue quest markers you decide to fucking? nuke the already translated (which someone no doubt paid for), completely unintrusive, absolutely functional, if somewhat tedious sidequests? making the whole fucking game even MORE barren and lifeless? FOR FREE? what a fucking deal.

 i literally cannot understand this clownery this absolute idiot idea could only have been concocted by the specific brand of stupidity found only in corporate sales dept. but like i think its also emblematic of how this game has no creative direction other than make Money which is fucked cause theres genuinely many parts of this game that i enjoy from like characters, music, visuals theres A LOT of promise in bns even if it takes a lot of legwork to get to it. as much as people give htk shit he absolutely made this game what it is visually and thematically, the soundtrack fucking rocks, theres some solid characters and story elements, a lot of the game still holds up visually and som of it dare i say looks fucking good. give bns a try its free to play.

maybe ive just been spoiled by fgo and gbf and literally every other popular game ACTUALLY trying to write good shit. trying to give their readers lore, trying to make things genuinely ENJOYABLE as a game should be rather than a part time job. but man i always forget after act1 bns really reveals why its never broken out from being a midweight grindy mmo 

#time to go back to just playing story and sleep #it wont even load for more than 5 seconds wo crashing tho #better delete some more sidequests to fix that yall #if bns hired me it would be exclusively to point a knife at the writers when they try stupid shit #renbns
