i know that when i finish a book or show or game i should move onto the next one because i have just so so many that are on my To Do list but i cant quite do that a lot of the time because i have to marinade or something. it took me months to start another book after house of leaves. i felt like i needed to show up at a class to discuss it. i don't know if i'll ever really get past the 20 books a year goal or the 10 games a year goal because i have a lot to think about.

fe3h revalink au. i don't actually have a full-fledged thought for this one but i'm imagining byleth!link and edelgard!revali, and the [FE3H SPOILERS] scene where you kill edelgard in the verdant wind route and the quotes "your path lies across my grave" and the "i wanted... to walk with you..."
revali, who won't back down for what he believes is right even though he didn't foresee how the war he started would destroy the country, and link, who wants to save him but knows that even if revali loves him, he won't back down from his beliefs. revali who begs link to kill him when link gets the edge on him during their final battle, because if link wants to fix this country then it will depend on him taking revali down.
"well, then? claim your victory," revali grunts, barely able to hold himself up with his bow. if link doesn't kill him now, the blood loss will kill revali first. "strike me down. you must!"
"i can't," link whispers, blue eyes wide and teary. it almost catches revali off-guard; he's never seen link break like this. link, who is always stony-faced and expressionless, whose eyes are now full of tears, the grip on his sword with the barest tremble. this isn't how he wanted to see link cry for the first time... "revali..."
"even now," revali says, gritting his teeth, "people across this land are killing each other. if you do not act now, this conflict..." he winces, the pain flaring all over his torso. link twitches, nearly jumping forward to reach for revali. "... will go on, forever."
he looks up at link. the little hylian is crying freely now, face morphed into a look of anguish. revali's gut tightens, in pain, in regret. he wishes it wouldn't have to end like this, but he refuses to back down now. it's too late for him anyway...
"your path... lies across my grave," revali barely manages. "it is time for you to find the courage to walk it."
"no, revali," link whispers, tears continuing to pour down his cheeks. "we can fix this together, just come with me, please—"
"if i must fall," revali cuts him off, breathing heavily and shutting his eyes, "then let it be by your hand." he forces himself to open his eyes again and look up at link. "please, link. this is the only way."
"i won't," link says, wiping furiously at his eyes. he staggers forward towards revali, his sword falling from his grip as he kneels before revali and cradles his face. "this can't be the only way, we can still save hyrule together, our paths can still be parallel, please, revali—"
but it's too late. revali supposes he still fell by link's sword; this final battle between him and link did a number on him, and there wouldn't have been any way he could survive it with the amount of injuries he has sustained, regardless. link was always an incredible fighter. he wraps an arm around link and pulls him close, inhaling the scent of his once-lover for the last time. link throws his arms around revali's neck, desperately holding him tight.
then, revali pulls away and presses his lips to link's forehead. "i wanted... to walk with you..." he whispers, exhaling finally and his grip loosening. with link in his arms as he takes his final breath, revali is finally at peace now.
link realizes a second too late that those were revali's last words, revali's last breath, revali's last embrace, and he screams. link howls and shouts and wails, holding revali's body, not caring that his armor is seeping with blood or that his body is heavy and sore. he begs, calling for mipha or zelda to heal, for anyone to help, for the goddesses not to take his revali from him.
link sobs, holding revali's body tightly rocking back and forth. he did this, he killed revali. and perhaps it was a necessary evil, for the good of hyrule and to end the war, but it's an evil link will never be able to live with, the blood of his lover forever staining and burning his hands with sin.

link needs therapy
you ever consider that link totally has like. all of the survivors guilt?
like my man was part of a group of 6 amazing, strong people, who he almost definitely respected and thought of as friends, and 4 of them died, one of them was trapped in hyrule castle trying to hold back the guy he failed to kill, and he was the only one who made it out okay in the end. 
i think link would believe somehow that his failing to kill ganon lead to everyone elses death, even if it couldnt have been prevented. 
like IMAGINE the survivors guilt this guy is going through. his friends are all dead, and he’s left in a shell of the world he once knew, and his last hope to get back the last remnant of his life is to finish the mission he failed.
and hes going through this all with amnesia, struggling to remember even why he has to do this all in the first place and why these people died. 
like imagine you wake up and have no memory of who you are and how you got here, in a post apocalyptic place, and are told you have to go fight the guy possessing hyrule castle that caused this place to fall apart. and on top of that you keep getting these flashbacks and are piecing together your life, just to realize that even if you kill ganon, it cant bring back the people who meant so much to you.
man.
someone get this guy a therapist.

in non locked tomb news (im sure there are some people who are sick of it and Im Sorry) i reread Ancillary Justice and wowee I absorbed so much more from the audiobook than i ever did reading it with my own two eyeorbs! the emperors name has been echoing in my mind for two weeks because the way the narrator pronounces it hits Just Right and feels good to my brain lol
anyway i think?? i want to read book two now???? its a nice little book on its own (which somehow seemed so BIG when i first read it) but im more interested now in how it continues than i was a few years ago

if there's anything that TotK has taught me, it's that the best thing BotW did as an open-world game was let me climb mountains and look around and glide (which was my main issue w/ Skyrim, as mountain climbing was difficult), and that "climb high, look around, soar to interesting place" is so much my solution to things that I am suffering to map out a certain area where this is not possible

Ive been taking my sweet ass time with totk haven't even touched the main quest yet, gonna get full stamina and all the hearts before I actually play the story
#this is what i live abt open world games#no need to start the story until i actually want to#i think thats something genshin kinda lacks?#i mean the open world is absolutely fantastic in totk and genshin but with genshin some puzzles in the open world you cant do#UNLESS you finish a really long quest#and i mean the quests arent hard but i prefer ignoring story stuff ans being able to actually explore without NEEDING the quest in order to#do so#which totk and botw did really well bc all the mandatory mechanics are things you get in the very beginning#and then ur just free to do whatever without needing the main quests#well#axtually i guess since some quests are aboit fixing environmental issues it kinda counts#but those environmental issues dont fully stop you from exploring the way the exploration in genshin does#i love both games#i mean w somw games i lose interest pretty fast like in a few months#but w genshin its been. 2 years? and im still not bored enough of the game to quit#i dont play the game for very long tho. i do some stuff then i close it which i guess is why i havent experienced full burnout#i think games w more freedom are just straight up better at keeping my attention for long periods of time#games w set paths like pokemon and some other story driven games donr keep my enjoyment for as long#i mean i love pokemon but it does get predictable and boring after a while#im not attached to genshin enough to want to stick with it no matter what tho like trust me the minute i get too bored to play#im leaving it w/o a second thought lol

there’s got to be a faster way to play this game but How
#not that I don't absolutely love meandering my way around this world and chatting to all the NPCs#but I want to start octopath traveller ii when I still have time and before there are too many spoilers floating around#and I can't DO that when I'm barely even halfway through the first one#at this rate it's going to be years before I finish...#which is fine but like also. I want to Know What Happens#I could do this by just looking up the stories sure but I want to PLAY IT#but I want to play it faster >:(#<- says the person who learned you can fast-travel between taverns somewhere around hour 60 or so yet has refused to do so#‘~60.5 hours for the main game and maaaaaybe 100-ish for completionists’ BUT WHAT ABOUT PEOPLE WHO ARE BAD AT FIGHTING#WHAT ABOUT PEOPLE WHO NEED TO TRAVEL ON FOOT EVERYWHERE BECAUSE THEY'RE TOO WEAK TO MISS OUT ON ANY EXPERIENCE#WHAT ABOUT PEOPLE WHO FORGET WHERE ALL THE HIDDEN CHESTS AND SIDE QUESTS ARE AND HAVE TO RE-FIND THEM EVERY TIME#all these side quests are haunting me...yes this name sounds familiar no I do not know from when or where#good luck finding your lost lover sir#I'm pretty sure I've met her like 4 times but I can't remember where she is#and because I hit A too fast you will no longer tell me her name :/#could I simply look up this information? yes. but I want to bumble around authentically as much as possible like with botw#‘IS THERE A FASTER WAY TO DO THIS!!’ I scream while doing everything as slowly and inefficiently as possible#cheese plays octopath traveller#<- unlikely to be used more than once but Who Knows#I'm glad I actually got to play video games today though even if it didn't quite hit the level of enjoyment i was hoping for#two unexpected days of in a row man I never want to go back to work#but I also don't want to exist in my own head forever doing nothing#I don't want to move forward. but I also don't want to stay here#do you see the Dilemma#anyways time to go train h'aanit on the way back to whoever the heck's chapter 3 I was supposed to be getting to#while training for tressa's chapter 3 that I put on the backburner years ago because the boss was too hard#I LIKE to think our posse is strong enough to take it now but I feel like I keep disproportionately training certain people over others#it's so much harder to keep everyone on relatively equal footing in this game than in pokemon :(#Primrose my first ever companion how I miss thee </3 I'm sorry I so rarely need to use your skills for anything

Anyway, now that I finished Frontiers, I can start on my... I guess you could call it a New Year's resolution. It's not really a "resolution," tho. I just want to see if I can finish any Zelda games before TOTK comes out. Because I have yet to actually finish a Zelda game.
