It always angers me when people say that men would not put in so much effort to enact their violence on women and children because they do exactly that.

I was only seven when I learnt about just how hard men try to deceive the world so they can have free reign over young girls. I went on a Brownie trip to an orphanage back when I lived in Nigeria. The orphanage was just for girls which isn't uncommon, and it was massive, with its own school, shops, clinic etc. The girls had no reason to leave. It was set up by a pastor- a Nigerian who'd moved back from abroad.

I remember while we were there, one of the girls had just had a baby. She had seemed so old to me but looking back, she must have been around sixteen or seventeen. I remember my mum seemed suspicious when we were told the girl had run away and returned pregnant. She seemed even more so when we met the owner.

A year or two later, there was news on the radio. The man who had set up the orphanage had raped and impregnated several girls, selling their babies to prospective parents. I didn't even understand what rape meant back then but I remember my mum being devastated. Looking back, I think she might have felt guilty, perhaps she'd seen the signs: the girls not being allowed to leave the compound; teenage girls ending up pregnant. It seemed so obvious.

But no one questioned a man who used all of his money to build and set up a home for vulnerable girls, he was a pastor, educated, well-travelled. He could never have done something so cruel. But he did.

When I was writing this post, I tried to find any articles but I couldn't. They were just so many identical cases, man sets up orphanage, rapes and abuses children in the orphanage. Different cases, different years, one as recent as 2023. What I learnt back then and know for sure is that men would do anything, no matter how difficult or expensive, anything to have access to people they can abuse.

How are we feeling about ensekai’s emu3 translation!!! (I’m mad)

(if you remember the 3 whole posts i made when asahi got de-gayed on EN you'll know i am mad too and that this is probably going to get long)

i don't like to be too cynical but it was so obvious that they were going to change that line, i had a feeling since the event first released on JP and after the incident with Asahi where I went through and tracked down multiple other examples of EN removing queer subtext it became clear to me that in no way shape or form was "emu-chan really loves nene-chan" making it to EN without getting changed. what i didn't expect was them changing Nene's line after Luka's comment, which actually makes this whole situation far worse than many of their other instances of toning down queer subtext.

for anyone who isn't aware of what happened, in chapter 5 of the current Emu event, there's a scene where Nene, Rui and the Virtual Singers are talking about what would cheer Emu up. The vsingers all talk about how much Emu loves spending time with Nene, leading to the following exchange

If you look for them, any fan TL of this scene will be something similar to this:

Luka: ...Fufu. Emu-chan really loves Nene-chan, doesn't she? Nene: Th-that's nothing special...

EN's official translation is this:

So what's the issue? I'll start with Luka's part. In the original text, she uses the word daisuki, which can mean to "like a lot" or "love". It's a word you will see frequently in the idol/idol-adjacent genre of games, due to its ambiguity in that it can be read as either platonic or romantic when used towards a person, and often will be used in ambiguous situations so that it's harder to confirm the writers' intentions either way. so here, fans of the emu/nene ship could view the fact that emu loves spending her time with nene as more on the romantic side, but people who don't like the ship could view it as platonic and move on.

while they didn't translate daisuki directly, Luka's line still works, and still contains the ambiguity that works as ship tease in the original text. it's a perfectly fine localisation that still conveys the original intent. despite that, there is something to be said about EN's consistent refusal to translate daisuki as love in most instances when it's not used on An/Kohane (but then again, EN has literally teased An/Kohane on their twitter account so is it all that surprising?).

Here's some examples:

Aibou no koto ga daisuki de / he loves his partner -> he cares about his partner very much (The Power of Unity chapter 7 when Kaito is comparing Arata to Akito and Toya)

HARUKA-CHAN, DAISUKI DAYOOOO!!! / HARUKA-CHAN, I LOOOOOVEEE YOU!!! -> You're the best!!! (Dear Me, As I Was Back Then chapter 4 when minori is at an ASRUN concert. this one isn't actually that great of a localisation)

Honachan no koto daisuki dakara. Kore de iinda yo. / I love Honachan, so this is fine. -> I want what's best for her. And this is it. (Leo/need main story chapter 14 after Saki tells Honami she won't bother her anymore)

Minna daisuki de - taisetsuna tomodachi na no / I love them all - they're my dearest friends -> They're all amazing, and very dear to me. (Leo/need main story chapter 17. this isn't good either)

What's particularly amusing about that last one is that there's a second official translation for it that I assume was done by JP staff (since EN never promoted doing the Journey to Bloom subs like they did back when they provided subs for Petit SEKAI) that actually keeps the word daisuki as love.

Yeah. I love all my friends - and they mean the world to me.

It's a better localisation than the official EN team one.

Questionable localisation choices aside, Luka's line is fine and is actually in line with the original. The issue with this localisation very much lies with Nene's part, because that is an entirely new line.

In the original text, Nene's "that's just normal" or "that's nothing special" or however you choose to TL it, is meant to be her questioning Luka's statement, since all the things that the other vsingers said that Emu liked were pretty normal things like going shopping and playing video games with nene. To Nene, these things are normal activities for them to do together, so she gets embarrassed by the fact that Luka concludes from that information that Emu loves Nene. When I dissect it like that I think you can really tell what the writers were going for here lol.

"That's just us being friends" does still convey the idea that Nene thinks these activities aren't anything out of the ordinary and she isn't sure why the vsingers are picking these out as some of Emu's favorite things to do, but it's very different from the original line. "But those are just normal things we do together" is something I just came up with on the spot, but it's a lot closer to the original text and still conveys the same meaning. The fact they changed the line to "that's just us being friends" is, honestly, not even subtle that they're covering up queer subtext. The original scene was very clearly written in as ship tease, and EN mentioning "friends" for no reason, especially since the word nor anything close to it was not used in the original, is instantly a red flag because it's like the go-to for queerbaiting and censorship. This was intentional. There was no need for them to specify that the relationship is platonic, Luka's part is ambiguous for a reason so that fans can view it how they like.

Just to top all this off, here's Rin's original line just before that Luka+Nene interaction:

Oh, and! And! She said that playing games with Nene-chan is also super fun!

And here's Rin's line from the official EN translation:

That's not the same thing, but even more weirdly, the incorrect part (super fun->really loves) is a correct translation for the part changed in Luka's line. So, they can do it, they are willing to say "really loves", just not in the right places. Maybe because Rin's part is less personal than Luka's part? It's strange actually, this isn't the first time they've done this either. Off the top of my head I can think of an example from Shiho's Varied Kindness 2* story where they translated the word "suki" as really loves, despite that being much stronger than the original word used (and the fact that daisuki is used a lot in the Leo/need stories and it's incredibly rare if not entirely unknown for them to translate it correctly).

It's not subtle that they're trying to remove implications of the characters possibly being queer, they did it in curtain call and they did it in walk on and on, and multiple times before then too. And considering some of the content in this year's events and the amount of times they say daisuki alone, it's gonna keep happening. honestly i hate the fact that i keep trying to justify the translations in these posts. these translations are intentional. what happened in the curtain call translation back in october says enough. when a character who uses explicitly romantic language towards another guy passes as a straight character in the translation you know they're doing it on purpose.

oh and once again, it's only the EN server that has this issue. The scene in question was translated almost word-for-word on the TW and KR servers.

read fan translations. they're better than what EN gives us and people put a lot of effort into them.

#since the EN translation qualifies as a leak i am scheduling this to post when the event drops #asks #mod talks #i'm going to leave this in the tags because i don't want to make the post any longer #but something that's been really annoying to see recently on twt has been the gradual uptick of players saying that there's no queer #characters/subtext/etc in the game outside mizuki being trans. and i do wonder if EN's consistent habit of toning down #or outright removing moments of heavy subtext and other more ambiguous shiptease moments has anything to do with it. #that or people live under a rock because even EN keeps most of An and Kohane's relationship intact and there's still plenty of #moments that were impossible to edit or tone down due to being plot relevant or being part of longer interactions that wouldn't make sense #if part of it was changed. like the An wedding event. #eh maybe people are just ignorant. #but anyway it does bug me immensely that EN-only players are getting a censored version of the game. it's 2024. staff can do better. #also like i mentioned in the part about rin. they /add in/ things occasionally. so why the hell are they removing so much?

[AU info post WIP] The flower staff got jumpscared so hard it wrapped it's vine around PV nsnfns

I'm a big fan of the silly idea that PV's staff can somewhat interact with it's surroundings using it's vines cjsnfcn (ft.some old art below)

Ik I've stated it before, but making it emote w vines and the whole "mutualistic" connection w it and PV is just so fun to work with lmao

Idk I just like adding the subtle silly details n stuff I'm very normal about those/silly

There’s no note or anything to detail whoever the sender is, but in front of Crowley’s office doors is a huge bouquet of black roses. That’s all!

I hope you don’t mind me adding the other staff to this interaction! I thought it would be more fun to have other people present so Crowley could bounce off of them.

Enter; An Unkindness of Ravens.

The bushel of black roses completely obscured Crowley’s torso as he lugged it into his office. The other staff, sitting in a circle, startled at the comedic sight.

“Headmaster, what is that?” Trein inquired, his brows creasing. From his lap, Lucius let out a low meow.

“Fufufu, it seems I have a secret admirer! Which, if you think about it, shouldn’t be that surprising! Who could resist a handsome, clever old charmer like myself?” Crowley replied proudly. “There’s no card or sender ID, but they’ve sent me these lovely flowers.”

The staff members shared bewildered looks with one another.

“Perhaps they weren’t intended for you,” Crewel, the first to speak, suggested.

“The must not know about your personality yet,” Vargas joked, his tone jovial. He passed a glance to Sam. “Or maybe it’s a prank?”

“Not from me!” Sam held up both hands. “The Mystery Shop does keep all kinds of flowers in stock—but sending a free bouquet of this size as a PR stunt? Without a proper calling card, and when there aren’t many potential customers around to witness it? That’s bad business, my friend!”

“Whoever sent it must have been embarrassed about the gift being tied back to them… That must be why they hid their identity,” Trein surmised.

“The flowers themselves could be a bad omen,” Crewel added. “Black roses herald death, loss, mourning, and farewells. Dishonor and hatred are also—”

“They could also mean mystery and elegance, both of which are apt descriptors for your benevolent headmaster,” Crowley interrupted. “Wh-Why are you all assuming the absolute worst of this?!”

Another round of looks exchanged between the staff.

“It’s you,” they simultaneously announced.

“Yes, and?! I’m a catch!!”

The room went silent.

“Well,” said Crewel at last, “that is, I suppose, debatable… if we stretch the definition of being ‘a catch’.”

“Y-You’re all just jealous!” Crowley huffed defensively. He shielded the bouquet of black roses with his arms, as if embracing a beloved child. “Jealous that you were not the one recognized for your excellency!!”

“Oh, please.” Crewel’s eyes are steely ice, challenging. “You think too highly of yourself. If I were you, I would be questioning the ethics of an instructor accepting such a showy present, not reveling in it.”

“I wouldn’t mind something as simple as a carton of eggs myself. Could always do with the extra protein. Let him have this one, Crewel!”

“If I’d have known the headmaster would react this positively to a surprise, then the Mystery Shop has to step up its game! Nyehehe, I’ll whip up something to knock your socks off your next visit.”

“… This budget meeting is proving itself to be an unproductive use of time,” Trein sighed, rubbing at his temples. “Dear me, Lucius. Whatever shall we do with them?”

“Mrow.”

On days like these, the familiar pitied his master.

TOPIC: INTELLIGENCE DAMPENING SPHERE POST-DETACHMENT RE-ASSIGNMENT

================================================

Sphere's adapted surprisingly well to conditions outside of the Central AI Chamber. We've noticed a marginal increase in intelligence after it's exposure to "HER" neural imprint. It is now capable of recognizing (and even using) a "double entendre" in a sentence - likely picked it up from her (have you people considered attaching an "attitude suppression" sphere onto her yet? Would be great). It's been annoyingly talkative to the staff. Suggest re-assignment to Subject Caretaker duties. Quite literally the lowest hanging fruit - it's mostly automated anyways, even a toddler couldn't mess it up. Just find a use for it so it stops pestering me on the catwalks, thanks.

More old concept art, this one's been rolling at the back of my workshop for a bit.

You know how some humans just turn into pokemon? Not ghost types or dead pokemon, pokemon like Kadabra that are just the result of some freaky transformation? Yeah anyways grief go brr here's a design for Emmet.

I made this mostly concept on a whim for shits and giggles, but I did outline some basic stat specifics. For starters there this godawful possible learnset from google slides:

wonder if there's any noticeable patterns, anyways the ability is Anger Point just because of how absolutely fucking atrocious it is. It comes from how the whole rage/aggression factor of Emmet's transformation and makes him an absolute pain to deal with once the Interpol find him.

Stat spread was originally based on pseudo-legendaries' BST but I ended up cutting down some of the numbers cause they were feeling like a bit too much. The values are weighted heavier in offensive stats and lower in defensive.

HP: 70 ATK: 150 DEF: 70 SPA: 110 SPD: 70 SPE: 100

BST: 570

Anyways hope you guys like the art, I made this concept like a month ago off of dumb idea but ended up having fun sketching a researching stuff for it. See you later ^^

Bonus doodles:

(someone from the server I'm in asked for Emmet having a treat so he's having a biscuit/stuffed donut)

also here's the gesture drawings when I was still concepting cause I think they're funny

#body horror #tw body horror #submas #au #submas au #emmet #subway master emmet #emmet pokemon #kudari #fanart #sketch #drawing #digital art #slimy emaciated fucking creechure ♥ fun fact they take him into government custody (research lab) to see what the fuck is wrong with him #he's a little menace in custody‚ biggest way he sticks it to the authority is shattering windows so they need to be replaced constantly #like 6 replacements in a weekend kind of constantly #also since they took him for a pokemon‚ they originally gave him the standard berries + wet food mix they give to other pokemon #they stopped after he dragged a researcher to the cafeteria by the lanyard and scanned a lunch for himself #honestly the most interesting part of this concept is how he interacts with staff at the research facility #It's the SCP Submas special #meanwhile Ingo in Hisui seeing this shit in his nightmares #anyways see you later

Having been here since Tumblr's Golden Days and having watched its slow decline into a graveyard (albeit one with a pretty active infestation of chittering goblins), it's been fascinating this past week.

Blogs that have been silent for years, that I'd assumed long dead and abandoned and among the many graves that litter this hellsite...are suddenly come back to life.

I'm not sure if it's more like seeing critters come out of a very, very long hibernation blinking around at how everything's a wee bit different from what they remember—or perhaps something a bit more timeless and undead, like vampires kicking open their coffins or zombies bursting out from the graves where they'd laid.

I hope the time has come for Tumblr's zombie reawakening.

Welcome back, y'all. Welcome back.

#YukiPri rambles #Tumblr #People are right to be wary of this site after the Purge #but the timing of staff's N/S/F/W deets and the blue bird's crisis is definitely connected #There are always pros and cons to there being more users #but at the same time I miss having more interaction and company #and seeing some old familiar handles i'd honestly forgotten about is like being slapped in the face with nostalgia

After playing through all paths I can confirm that all characters in Pokémon Scarlet & Violet - all gym leaders, members of Team Star, the school staff and the MC's friends - are queer 🎉

#Pokémon #pokemon scarlet and violet #pokemon sv #nemona is ace obvi #penny is trans #arven is a gay man #all of team star? GAY #mela and eri are both lesbians #atticus is gay #ortega is also trans #giacomo's queer #and the school staff?? all of them are different flavors of gay #as well as the gym leaders #basically every character you interact with is gay in this game which is why the story is 😘
