i adore sam for making fcg just fully, tits out (wheels out?) pro-deities in c3 -- it is so fucking funny
all three campaigns we've had even the sorta "pro-deities" (and tbh I find the idea of "pro-deities" and "anti-deities" in cr discourse to be so stupidly black-and-white but for the sake of a tumblr post, sure) characters to have some hangups -- like vax goes with the raven queen but it's obviously this unbelievably heart breaking thing where he has to leave his family behind
or jester creates her own god
fjord with ukutoa (ukutoa) and the wildmother -- even cad isn't so preachy with the wildmother!
so what does sam do for campaign 3?
like the incredible wrecking ball that he often is he just decides -- yeah fuck it. FCG thinks the gods are great and can do no wrong and no he cannot be swayed by other arguments
it's so good
and it is so funny

i know destiny had an off game today and made mistakes (still scored a goal though!) but i honestly love this kid so much, he’s a hard worker and you can see him improving with every minute he plays. he will make mistakes and he will have off games but that’s just par for the course seeing as he’s so young. i will always back our kids no matter their mistakes because young players need support and time to grow and destiny is already showing that he’s a deeply integral part of the team. he’s also fully coys, the way he pointed to the badge after the goal! 🤍

It was [une étrenne] [which] Anne [gifted] Henry. He was overjoyed because the symbolism was transparent. She had remembered her journey around Brittany with Claude and Louise of Savoy in the summer of 1518, when the citizens of Nantes had presented Francis with a silver-gilt ship jewel whose meaning was that his subjects were safe in storms so long as he was at the tiller. Now she gave Henry a smaller, modified version of the same device: a 'fair diamond' set in a 'ship in which a solitary damsel is tossed about'. As the means to convey a message, it was brilliantly choreographed.

Okay so ngl it's roughly inspired by the movie 50 first dates (Jimmy's getting she/her for this whole ask cause I'm in the habit of it and this is my Jimmy I can do what I want)
The gist is that Jimmy has no memory of past servers any time she joins a new one (last life Jimmy doesn't remember 3rd life, Empires 2 Jimmy doesn't remember Empires 1, ect.) So when Tango meets her during hermitpires it's like a moment where all the memories of Double Life come rushing back and she remembers the ranch and her rancher and everything and she's just overwhelmed with so many happy memories she picks him up and spins him around and it's very cute. And they thing everything's fine now that they're reunited and remember everything (Tango never forgot). But the Empires server doesn't want Jimmy breaking character and remembering her other lives, so it's actively trying to re-repress the memories. Jimmy just kind of assumes it's a fibro problem cause she has foggy memory anyways, but after Tango leaves there comes a day not even a week after he's gone that she can't remember him or anything that happened in double life. She vaguely remembers some stranger passing through Tumble Town, but she can't put a face to them.
Once Tango realizes he can visit the Empires server whenever he wants (headcanon that he can move between any servers he has the address to, like dimension navigating I guess) he comes to see Jimmy, only to see that Jimmy doesn't remember him. She vaguely remarks that he seems familiar and she's visibly distressed about this, and Tango just assumes that whatever erased her memories the first time did it again. And seeing Tango's face doesn't bring them back this time because the server is working harder to keep her from remembering. So Tango just guides her through double life and slowly she starts to be like Oh I remember that, didn't [thing] happen too? And eventually she remembers everything and feels bad that Tango had to remind her who he was, but Tango assures her he knows it isn't her fault and he doesn't mind having to refresh her.
And of course this isn't the last time, almost every single time Tango visits he needs to remind her, he eventually starts doing things like leaving books or pictures for her to read when she forgets. And Tango never complains when she forgets again because he knows that she would remember him if she could and he cares enough to put in the work.
It's sort of literally just 50 first dates (very important movie to me <3) but I love it anyways it's so sad but cute and kind of shows how dedicated these guys are to each other and just how much they'll put in to make sure they aren't taken apart again <3
AWWW THAT'S SO FUCKING CUTE <3333
Like askdhdsk the idea of the server itself rewriting her very code so she forgets everything and never breaks her Sheriff character only to have Tango "I feel like we'd find each other in any universe" Tek come strolling in and manually walking Jimmy through their life so she can remember who he is?? Fucking GOLD bro, absolutely heartbreaking shit.
By any chance have you read "There's Not a Word Yet" by Pixiemage? :3

I'm just curious- who are your favorite teams?
!!!!! FUN ASK !!!! sorry it took me so long to get to it, the demons, but i made a tierlist!!
LOVE the curiosity, thank u for asking!!!!!
i like a lot of teams tbh / dont mind a lot of them and don't really have That One Team I Hate because im more of a player person so i usually try finding at least one player on each individual team that can make whatever game more fun for me, so ill explain some !!
💙 I love watching pathetic people be pathetic, that's the true sport to me. I find a bigger thrill celebrating one win than 100. The rockets have my biggest attention rn because i know all the roster, the other povertys i still love but it takes some getting used to after most of em either blew things up or are in the process of !! they're still my skrungles tho <3 i will root for their win over larger markets best i can. i am not immune to underdog propaganda !!
💙 please win (they wont)
💙 ant eds and his tired bf jaden mcdaniels, Zions boyfriend rj maxey's boyfriend iq, collin sexton ochai agbaji, rjs boyfriend zion dames boyfriend cj guy that looks like swaggy p babygirl Willie green uh actually i think the pelicans belong with Cringe Gays... im too lazy to edit the photo tho but yeah Pelicans are with Cringe Gays now 🥰.. They're a good candidate for pathetic people too actually anyways, terry rozier JT thor, jaden ivey jalen duren, darius garland jarrett allen, wendell Carter Jr bol bol (i like that he frightens children)
💙 the order makes it look like i hate my hometeam but i don't 😭 i just don't pay attention to them much, mainly cus they're blacked out on nbatv but also since they're hometeam it's like, they there whatever i hope they win if they don't then it's regular Chicago depression whatever lol. I LIKE THEM and i don't pray on their downfalls, i just don't? Pay them much heed as much as other people who live near them may do. i paid them more attention when kris dunn was on the team.. bring him back and maybe Zach will stop being upset ? will it help us win games? no. but the gays 🤨? yes 🥰
💙 sorry but they're homophobic (except for you Thomas Bryant MWAH my wizard king). I don't hate any of them, but like.. if they had a downfall... so be it 🥰 (warriors can get a slight 'okay I hope you get saved at least' pass because they look polite (some of them))

throwing my hat in the ring. calling my shots. if i say them out loud i will either have really good luck or really bad luck so we’re going for it!
i am manifesting MaX. Nagomi Nava. Sandoval Crossing. Alaynabella Hollywood. Sutton Bishop. Alexandria Rosales. Fitzgerald Blackburn. Parker MacMillan. Agan Espinoza. some of these players will drop in the final three falls (please 🤞)
extra points if any of them end up back at home (if applicable) i just think they deserve it
