↪     𝑖𝑡'𝑠 ᵗʰᵉ 𝔩𝔞𝔰𝔱 𝑴𝑰𝑫𝑵𝑰𝑮𝑯𝑻 .   (  a  collection  of  sentence  starters  from  disney’s  2014  film  into the woods .   adjust  phrasing  as  necessary .)
the king is giving a festival !
i wish the walls were full of gold ,  i wish a lot of things .
sometimes i wonder what’s going on in that head of yours .
what are you doing ?  stop your pretending .
are you certain of your way ?
the way is clear ,  the light is good .
the woods are just trees ,  the trees are just wood .
are you really wearing that ?
it’s not what i wish ,  it’s what you wish .
i could’ve turned him into stone .  or a dog .  or a chair .
a small price to pay for what you stole from me .
well ,  that’s another story .  nevermind ,  anyway .
sorry ,  i’m still not mollified .
how could you do that ?
your father was no father ,  so why should you be ?
we’re starving ,  [ name ] !  don’t you understand that ?
we have to live ,  i don’t care how .
look what i found .  here ,  take this .
no ,  i can do this on my own .
it may be all in vain ,  you know .
i have no fear ,  nor no one should .
careful not to lose the way .
what’s your rush ?  you’re missing all the flowers .
look what you’re ignoring .
why do you think i asked you to do it in the first place ?
get me what i need  …  get me what i need !
you’d look pretty foolish .
i’d rather a wolf than you any day !
you shouldn’t be here ,  it’s not safe in these woods .
i was just trying to help .
we have one chance .  don’t you see that ?
i’m not sure i’m cut out to be a father .
if you can’t do this for yourself ,  can’t you at least do it for me ?
don’t you look lovely today ,  my dear ?
i brought your favorite .
i can’t believe i just did that .
wait a minute ,  i never thanked you .
i’m sorry .  i should’ve known better .
i had been so careful ,  i never had cared .
he made me feel excited ,  well  …  excited and scared .
they will not protect you the way they should .
nice is different than good .
isn’t it nice to know a lot  …  and a little bit not ?
oh ,  get your head out of the clouds !
i just need to catch  my breath .
aren’t you the lucky one ?
please don’t let them know that i’m here .
i’ve never lied to royalty before .
it’s not quite what i expected .
you’re free to do whatever pleases you .
steal what you can and run !
you’re back again ,  only different than before .
i never even reached home .
who cares ?  get it back .
get away from me with that ,  you fool .
i shouldn’t have yelled .
i will make things right ,  and we can carry on with our lives .
will you go ?  please .  go .
when the one thing you want  …  is the only thing out of your reach .
the woods can be a dangerous place .
i thought you were returning home !
do you mean you’re going to let me stay with you ?
perhaps it will take two of us to have this child .
i thought one was enough ,  it’s not true .  it takes two of us .
when the journey was tough ,  it took two of us .
at home i’d fear we’d stay the same forever .
what did i clearly say ?   what were you not to do ?
what have i been to you ?  what would you have me be ?
i embarrass you .  you are ashamed of me .
don’t you know what’s out there in the world ?
someone has to shield you from the world .  stay with me .
who out there could love you more than i ?
the world is dark and wild .
stay a child while you can be a child .
i gave you protection ,  and yet you disobeyed me .
where you’re going ,  no one will ever see you again .
whichever you pick ,  do it quick .
it’s fun to deceive when you know you can leave ,  but you have to be wary .
at home ,  they don’t care .  i’m better off there ,  where there’s nothing to choose so there’s nothing to lose .
wait ,  please !   i haven’t much time .
that makes no sense !
what is that you have in your hand ?!
i would recognize these beautiful eyes anywhere .
is that you ?  i’m blind ,  i can’t see .
you could’ve been killed !
i was just thinking of the greater good .
i don’t have the constitution .
as long as i can be no help ,  i’m going to hide .
i don’t know where they think they’re going .
this is who i truly am ,  my dear .
why did you run off ?
i will not come with you .
you leave me no choice .
i shouldn’t complain .
i’m not allowed to leave the palace unescorted .
if you’d like ,  you can come with me .
i shall not forget you ,  and how alive you’ve made me feel .
you’re hurting me !
stop ,  stop !  i said stop !
this is all my fault .
remorse will get you nowhere .
when you’re dead ,  you’re dead !
this is no time to be soft - hearted !
you’re responsible ,  you’re the one to blame .  it’s your fault !
you’re all liars and thieves .
you’ll just do what you do .
it doesn’t matter if we’re together or apart .
i’m sorry ,  i did a foolish thing .
i didn’t realize ,  i was being careless .  selfish .
you stole and got caught and did what you do !
i hated myself .  i ran away from my guilt and shame .
aren’t you making the same mistake ?
be better than me .
i knew you wouldn’t give up .
that doesn’t matter ,  now .
first ,  we’ll need a weapon .
i did not recognize you ,  what are you doing here ?
maybe i’m not your only love .
if you love me ,  why did you stray ?
i thought that if you were mine ,  i would never wish for more .
i was raised to be charming ,  not sincere .
i think you should go .
i’m glad you’re here to help me .
you are not alone .  no one is alone .
you’ll do nothing of the kind .
what he did was wrong .  he should be punished .
it’s not as easy as that .
who can say what’s true ?
believe me ,  no one is alone .
people make mistakes .  fathers ,  mothers ,  people make mistakes .
you decide what’s right .  you decide what’s good .
just remember ,  someone is on your side .  someone else is not .
i miss her ,  too .
how can i go about being a father when i had no father to show me ?
sometimes people leave you  …  do not let it grieve you ,  no one leaves for good .
things will be alright now .

Watching the new Arknights movie was a lot of fun, there was a moment when I paused and went "this is reminding me a lot of Hiromatsu Shuu's stuff--" and then lo and behold I learn that it WAS Hiromatsu Shuu and his team who did the whole thing. Good stuff, they're exceptional animators.

Actually, thinking about it further, Makoto's luck might nullify the luck of others on more than just his worst days. In fact it may be one of the major functions of it. It's subtle enough that the exact mechanics of how it works are just occurring to me right now. Definitely something to keep in mind as I keep replaying the game...
No wonder Junko was completely unable to analyze and predict Makoto, even moreso than anyone else... The grey area his luck inhabits and the subtlety it can operate with makes it so manifestly confusing to think about and explain.

I just want to say thank you to everyone who is or has interacted with Makoto in times or verses where he hasn't experienced The Horrors. I've been thinking of how irrevocably different things can get for him once things go south and MAN. There's just something about characters whose trauma happens during the story itself instead of being part of the backstory that hits different for me
edit: i love writing him going through The Horrors don't get me wrong I just also like it when he gets a break

It's pretty good that places Makoto ends up in other verses (Chaldea, Astral Express, etc) aren't bad places at all, because otherwise Makoto's mental health would be hanging by a thread like it does in his main game

I have the weirdest takes about Makoto's character and his relationship to the concept of hope, maybe I'll jot them all down and make a huge meta about it once I finish my replay.

@dcviated replied:
dog yes
One of the small shovels he had brought with them sank into the dunes, and Makoto shoveled up another small pile of sand with it, leaving it on the growing mound of sand that formed a marker next to the hole they had been working on. There wasn't any particular reason for it-- No, actually there was: the fun of it, right? And it wasn't a bad workout for his arms, either...!
" I'm thinking... How much deeper should we go, Wylan-kun? And if we do, we should make it wider. "
Some thought went into digging, didn't it?

yes. she will diggy diggy hole. drain the ocean

“ D-- Draining the ocean is a little much, isn't it? The ocean’s really important… If it's gone, you won't be able to eat fish anymore. But just a large hole won’t hurt anyone... " And in fact, he wanted to dig a hole right now...!! If he didn't feel like he had to be at least somewhat responsible around Fyuga, maybe he would have already started! " Have you ever used a shovel before, Fyuga-chan? “

Would your muse help Makoto dig a large hole at the beach? This is a very important question.

It's me, I'm people. I've noticed a trend among many fellow Makoto enjoyers/understanders on the internet that it's either "he's kind and cute and cool I like him" or a multiple paragraph to essay length elaboration on why they think he's great. And I'm in both categories of that!

I'll take images that make Makoto feel kind of sad for 500, Jake.

" I've always read that Nobunaga was a pretty ruthless guy, so that doesn't surprise me... A lot of the time history ends up getting written by the victors, though. After Honnō-ji, he definitely didn't end up winning. "
Makoto briefly hummed in recognition of the poem and placed his hand on his chin, like he was thinking. It was one that he had heard before, when he was much younger— it was about Nobunaga’s aggression, Hideyoshi’s craftiness, and Ieyasu’s patience… Right? That was how he remembered it going, and before he could ask to make sure Renge’s words confirmed that for him. Luckily, it seemed that he avoided a potentially embarrassing situation...! After a further moment of thought, Makoto lowered his hand and nodded, seemingly having come to an answer that satisfied him.
“ I think… For me, it’s the third, Ieyasu's. Everyone's got their own pace they go at, right? Killing or forcing something just because it won't do what you want feels a bit extreme to me. I'm sure that they'll sing when they're ready to... Do you admire the three unifiers, Kasuga-san? Or, er, of the three, I guess it's Nobunaga that you’re a big fan of? I just haven’t heard someone refer to them with -sama outside of dramas. "
Tumblr media
“If the cuckoo doesn’t sing, kill it. If the cuckoo doesn’t sing, make it sing. If the cuckoo doesn’t sing, wait for it… Hey, Makoto-kun, which one of these expressions that resonate to you the most?” There it is again, she’s nerding it out with the usual Japanese history lessons. “I like Nobunaga-sama, but they make him such a sadist here, it’s embarrassing. The most logical answer would be Hideyoshi-sama’s expression, but I don’t know… I don’t really stan him or anything, you know?”
