They're still there. They're in there. They're in they're body but yet they're so far gone. the infections like a parasite and yet two was trying to fight it, they were scared and they wanted gaty. Not just to protect her but to feel the person that they felt close and comfortable around, and to take them both to the couch, they could've went for anyone. But they went for GATY. they could've killed her but they didn't. There's something so strangely endearing about that. Truly. Even when they're voice is being used to lure gaty in a sense I feel two geniunely wanted to help, they're so far gone, the little details, not just with how they move but with how they SPEAK. they're practically the host for a parasite and yet. They're still there.

#osc #object shows #tpot #tpot 9 #tpot 9 spoilers #two tpot #tpot gaty #something about this episode makes me so unnerved. maybe it's the voice acting. maybe its the change of tone. #or maybe ITS THAT DAMN SOUNDTRACK #it sounds so eerie. it isnt even necessarily even scary. theres nothing DIRECTLY scary about it #but you wanna know something? its so simple. its almost. too. simple #its too quiet. its far too quiet #theres so much left for our brains to just fill in the blanks #its like your own living hell. it really is one of those ost’s that sends off your flight or fight instincts #theres nothing and yet theres something there. you feel it in your bones. it sends a chill down your spine and its just .. nothing. #its nothing but you. your making it up and your brain is filling in the blanks and it's. terrifying.

Gortash would say this to Bhaal. I love Gale so much.

#durgetash #bg3 meme #gale meme #gortash meme #I love romancing Gale as Durge because that means Gale's ex is a god and his GF is a Demigod #The divine love him #Durge has a thing for ambitious men who love the sound of their own voice #like 'damn I like your voice too; keep talking babygirl' #Bhaal hates them both #Gortash for obvious reasons; Gale because he encourages Durge to resist the urge

There's something so lovely about the fact that even though ramon is almost a year old now (however long that correlates in baby egg years), fit still sings him his lullaby every night without fail, and ramon still gets excited for it. It's such a sweet tradition between the two of them that has carried over from the very beginning where so much has changed and yet one thing stays forever the same:

That kid loves his dad and boy does his dad love him.

#thinking abt ramon's birthday letter to fit :( #'the way your voice sounds so much softer when you say my name' what if i Died #q fitmc #qsmp #and when pac did his own lullaby w the cuca song #such a little gesture but it was such a huge leap of trust in a tradition that is so uniquely fit and ramon

i saw an abba cover band tonight and honestly most of the performance was spent imagining what im sure is some absolutely insane interpersonal drama

#the performance was. fine the band carried it though #I JUST WORK IN ARTS AND CULTURE AND NOW IM A SNOB. I WORK IN A THEATER AND IN A LIVE MUSIC VENUE SO I HAVE OPINIONS. #their mixing was. strange right at the top one of the singers was clearly not getting enough of her own vocals in her monitor #FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY? HAZE NOTICE?? NOTHING???? #so her voice sounded really strained. which is something they should have fixed in soundcheck. #she slayed at the winner takes it all though ill give her that #this has just turned into me complaining but whatever #one guy on acoustic guitar who was doing The Least #the keys guy was pretty good #the other singer was. fine #the musicians though they really killed it theyre clearly insanely talented #and i just. why abba covers? i mean power to you chase your bliss and all that but they were clearly professionals and Really Fuckin Good #NO PRESHOW ANNOUNCEMENT EITHER. HOW LONG IS THE SHOW? IS THERE AN INTERMISSION? WHERE ARE YOUR EMERGENCY EXITS? #also i was a bit grumpy bc my voice is too low for a lot of abba :( and im not good enough to just. match the key or harmonize on the spot #except for the 'super trouper' bits i can do those #my tags are out of order and i cant fix them. goodnight.

hmmmm having angsty Lights Out thoughts

#i know when i post about it i usually make it Lighthearted if not outright Memey #but oh boy. this au is dark. like - like beyond the literal meaning #imagine being abandoned by your creators without so much as a warning #one day the lights go out and thats it. no answers. no comfort. no friendly faces or explanation #show's over. curtains closed. doors locked. they're all gone #it's just waiting in a pitch black room because surely the lights will turn back on. the next day will come #but it Won't. the next day won't come. it will never come. your friends won't open their eyes again. it's just you now. #you've always had company - friends and the comfort of feeling Watched Over by something beyond your understanding #but you blinked and its gone now. it's just you. no matter what you try or what you do - its. just. you. #days and weeks and moths and years of silence and a complete lack of color #burning matches down to your fingertips just to remember what shade of yellow your fleece is #its still wrong. firelight stains the color. #slowly forgetting the sound of your friends voices and what their smiles looked like and what the memories you made with them were #what was your best friends favorite joke? what was his hotdog order? how did he laugh? he used to pose for your paintings didnt he? #you can't be sure anymore. maybe the neighborhood was always dead. maybe You're dead. how can you tell? #you don't breathe. they don't either. they used to didn't they? you never did but they used to. ...right? you hope their dreams are sweet #one of your friends starts sleepwalking. you're so happy. she hurts you. you know she didnt mean it. you're scared anyway. #you can only see with one eye now. it feels... Wrong. all of your chalk drawings start coming out wrong too. #you keep missing when you reach for things. just one more thing to adjust to #were the lights ever on? or was that your own dream? you thought that was something you couldnt do. #you also thought the lights always come back. you were wrong about that. what else are you wrong about? #wh lights out au #wailing sobbing screaming etc over lights out wally... this poor little 12 apples dude... #aimlessly wandering through the town... walking through the buildings.... #eventually getting so fucking lonely and desperate that you keep your best friend's severed arm for comfort #all you can do is protect your eternally sleeping friends from the Things crawling out of the shadows #mark another tally on the ground for each full circle the town clock's short hand completes #and wait for the day you fall asleep and join your friends dreams. it will happen someday. #you can feel it in the pitch seeping from your eyes and mouth. more with each decade that passes #just a little while longer. some more waiting. just you. in the dark.

The biggest recommendation I can give on writing dialogue that sounds in character for the character to say is, not to read the quests they are in, but to listen to the English dub whenever you get the chance. This may seem difficult especially if you are used to playing it in another language, but listening is key to getting the vibe of a character down. What you pay attention to is, not what they say, but the cadence in which they say it. Pay attention to the emotion in their voice, the speed at which they say things, the volume, etc. Once you get this down, it becomes easier to get an idea of what “sounds” right and what doesn’t. Cadence is an especially powerful thing. By training your ears to a character’s cadence, you can get a better idea of which words they would prefer to use, the lengths of their sentences, and things of the sort.

For example, reader asks Zhongli to dinner and he accepts. How would he respond? “Hmm, I’m not busy this evening, so I accept. Thank you for the invitation.” But that doesn’t sound right, does it? Is Zhongli the type of person that uses many contractions? I don’t think so, so let’s fix it. “Hmm, I am not busy this evening, so I accept. Thank you for the invitation.” But would he say “I accept?” Perhaps, but it still doesn’t sound right. How has he accepted proposals in the past? A bit of research shows he has said “sure.” How can I mix that in? “Hmm, I’m not busy this evening, so sure. Thank you for the invitation.” But hmm… the second sentence doesn’t sound right. What else could he say instead? “Hmm, I’m not busy this evening, so sure. It would be my pleasure.” That sounds a lot better.

Some people may ask why you can’t do these things while listening to another language. Personally, I don’t believe you can. If you are not fluent in those other languages, your ears are not properly trained enough to understand the nuance of the ways they speak. The correct emotion and tone will come through, yes, but you still won’t be able to intuitively know what sounds right and what does not. You only will get this sense by listening to it in the language you choose to write in.

The only downside to this is that your writing will become based upon the English translation of the game. As many people know, the portrayal of characters in English often does not completely match the portrayals in Chinese. This is especially so for characters like Zhongli, Xiao, and Kaeya. A lot is lost in the translation and dubbing process. Characters do not vibe the same. Thus, your portrayals will be more true to English, but not how it technically is “supposed” to be. Personally, I don’t necessarily believe this is a bad thing. However, it is something that can bother people. The only way I can imagine getting around it is by playing the game with the Chinese dub and by following accounts that speak Chinese and can give insight on the literal translations and what they mean and imply.

#personal #advice #character analysis #i personally dislike the idea that bc the en translation and dub aren’t parallel w/ cn they did a bad job #yes there are cases where the translation is terrible but it’s impossible to do a 100% true translation #when you translate a work the translation eventually becomes its own entity #it is the job of translation to change the text so that things sound natural #add into this communication misunderstandings between the translators and the writing team and things can become skewed #i’ve completely given up on zhongli but what i do try to do when writing xiao is to follow the notes of fan translators and ppl that play c #i do have it in my plans to eventually open an asian account and replay the whole game in cn too #but yeah training your ear to a character’s cadence is a real cheat way to learning character advice #this is bc it’s less rigid and more open-ended than memorizing straight speech patterns #the only junk thing is that eventually you’ll try writing for a character you haven’t listened to in a while? #and then you are forced to reserve two hours in your day to listen to a character or event quest with them in it #pain peko #also if you’re still here i’m gonna complain a bit like why do ppl always default to the jp voices when the cn voices are right there? #why not listen to cn? that should be the default if you want the best experience #idk man #maybe i’m just tired of listening to jp voice acting. they’re all the same

Went to the cinema yesterday and was surrounded by Gen Z.

You all need to learn to shut the fuck up because, my god, if you don't all use the cinema like it's your personal living room and think everyone wants to hear you ask your boyfriend every inane question under the sun.

You're rude. Not to be a Karen but you're all rude as fuck. A cinema is a public place where you are reminded by the cinema at the start of the movie that silence is expected not suggested. If you can't do that, then watch it at home.

#gen z #rude as fuck #you love the sound of your own voices #this is like the 'don't play music or tiktoks outloud' thing #no one wants to hear you #generation z

getting into death note again after watching hannibal is like. fruit fruit. tits tits.

#oh yeah get into his head. does your inner voice sounds like him L? how about you light? have you begun to blur yet? shut the fuck up #DO YOU KNOW HIS MIND AS IF IT WERE YOU OWN YET #i hate it here #death note lb #death note

thank god for indie devs making like tiny little maximum 10 megabyte freeware games on itchio keeping the art of filesize optimization alive. ASSET REUSE FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

#im watching a video about wario land music -> 'the bizarre music and sound design of wario land 4' by geno7 #good video so far! i like this guys stuff. he talked a bit about how they did some of the sound effects for warios voice #a very like. chopped and remixed sample style of doing his vocal lines. which is very cool 1) because it saves a bit of #precious space on that gba cartridge BUT ALSO 2) it just sounds cool and interesting stylistically #and man sometimes trying to keep a file size down really does give way for some really interesting stuff #on my own personal interests in games i ADORE rpg makers rtp and how people can find creative uses for it #i love that a bunch of games can draw from the same asset pool as one install on ur computer #no bloating your hardrive with a bunch of copies of the same assets - its just already here! #and from a developers perspective i love when they reuse old assets from other games in new weird ways #some small visual novel companies will reuse backgrounds and other assets #altho i dont mind a bit of bloat with VNs since a big draw can be the big pretty images and big pretty sounds #but its still cool when people find ways to get creative with space saving. and from a players perspective its also nice #space is cheap nowadays. but its not Free. we can swallow terabytes whole with micro sds and everything #but a lot of players dont get the chance or ability to upgrade their internal memory that often. so i think being considerate of filesize i #very important. and thats not even getting into the download bandwidth limits - a lot of people all across north america can only get like #internet from 1 provider and that 1 provider often likes to upcharge and limit shit because they can #we might live in a future where a lot of powerful technology exists. but access to that tech is another story #so remember the filesize. remember the filesize. #dies in your arms
