i love nokron and nokstella because aesthetics, lore, mystery, intrigue, and also the giant metal balls that chase me around

Does anyone in the cast like playing video games? What are their faves?

Haneul, S, and Secret all like video games!

Haneul will play literally anything. He does not give one iota of a fuck what the game is (with some exceptions, like hella problematic content). As long as it appeals to him, he'll play it. Hell, he'll even play games that don't appeal to him as long as a friend asked him to try it.

S obviously is really into horror games, but also games like Dark Souls. You know they're obsessively playing Elden Ring rn while they're not actively in class.

Secret likes relaxing games, like simple farming games. You know they have a ridiculous amount of time invested in Stardew Valley. They have entirely too many chickens and are married to Emily, because she seems like the one who'd be most cool with being married to an eldritch abomination.

Catching Up

thanks for the tag @starsandskies, always nice to see what everyone is consuming!

Top 3  how many I feel like listing ships:

Cullen and Quiz from Dragon Age

Thorn and Ophelia from the Mirror Visitor

Leon and Ada from Resident Evil

Jaime and Brienne from Game of Thrones

Claire and Jamie from Outlander

Last Song: Naiads, Cassadies by Fleet Foxes

Currently reading: Truly, Madly, the love story of Vivien Leigh and Laurence Olivier, My Brilliant Friend by Ferrante, and People we Meet on Vacation by Emily Henry. I am desperately trying to cure my reading slump and the first book is doing the best job, I’ve been reading it in the bathtub. I have always wanted a book solely on Larry and Viv’s love story and while it’s not the way I would have told it, it has a lot of interesting insight. 

Last Movie: The Lost City with Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum. it was pretty cute, though not my favorite. 

Currently Watching: Outlander and This is Us

Currently playing: Still obsessed with Elden Ring, about to start new game plus. I may platinum it!

Feelin pretty good about my tattooing lately. Got some big stuff coming up in April and it’s gonna be a hectic month for sure. It’s also my birthday month and I hope the ladies at the shop are down to celebrate with me.

Starting tomorrow I’m gonna start hyping up my ghibli flash in hopes that it’s wanted- this month so far I have another nice mix of flash and custom work I get to do and I am so excited. Im doing a Haunter on Thursday and that one I am over the moon excited for. The client is super sweet too so it’ll be nice to hang out for a while and talk Pokémon and other anime. It’s also their first tattoo and that’ll be the second person I tattoo for the first time! Dude this is really starting to fall together and I’m really happy with myself for putting myself out there.

I was thinking recently about how different life was this time last year. It was the beginning of pulling myself out from my “Katherine sad” which was a huge step but I also wasn’t in a good place fully. I was socializing with my friends again which I needed to do but I was unemployed, binge drinking and still sad (just not as terribly). I look at Emily and Bree, too, who were in the same boat as I was and who I spent almost every day with and it makes my heart swoon to see them thrive now. Emily ended up moving across the country to live with their partner and they’re both totally dry (no alcohol!) just working away and building a life together. Emily seems to be fitting in with George’s family and they’ve got all sorts of new friends over there. Wow- I just made myself extremely sad thinking about how much I miss them. Bree had a baby. I changed the subject because I’m sad HA. Her and Phil bought a house together and are raising a family. As far as I know she’s staying totally sober too- I can’t wait for the Summer for Bree. She’s gonna be that mom with her kid in the yard while she gardens all day and is just so precious and happy. I’m over the moon for how being a mom suits her. I haven’t seen her so happy in so long. Then here I am, again like I said I had all that on my plate this time last year. I can’t believe that my ass sent off an email on a whim last May, thinking that maybe I’d get a reply but I probably wouldn’t and I wouldn’t know unless I tried. I poured my heart out in that email and explained that I wanted one teacher and I wanted it to be her and I was interested in the art of hand poke and I took it so seriously. Now I’ve apprenticed for months. I’ve done dozens of tattoos and I have a wait list- I have a demand. People are getting tattooed and booking in again immediately afterwards. To say that this has been a lifelong dream feels somewhat of an understatement. For so long I gave up on the idea and thought it was something I’d only long after- something that was totally unobtainable to someone like me. Yet here I am- not only doing but absolutely thriving. Life is good.

Elden Ring came out recently. I’m grateful for Mark- he’s a precious boy who’s so passionate about what he loves (and he loves these games). I feel like he’s got the full experience, too. He’s got the PS5, his new entirely too big TV, for his birthday I got him the Philips Hue sync box and all his friends are finally playing these games. Literally every day he’s played that game from the moment he wakes up to when he goes to bed. I’ll be honest- it’s been fun. I don’t totally understand what I’m looking at but the game is stunning and I like to sit with him and watch him play as he tries to explain to me what’s going on.

Other than that I’ve been trying to stay connected with my friends and get out when I can. It’s hard with covid and everything. It feels almost weird now because we’re all in such different places than we were at the start of the pandemic. But I’ve tried. I see my niece a lot which has become one of the most important things to me. Marky and I are seeing Batman this weekend and I really don’t care for the franchise that much but I do adore Robert.

I guess that’s all for now- I’ve been in the bath for nearly two hours. Anyone else empty the tub half way through your bath and refill with hotter water so you can stay in longer? Anyway wish me luck on Thursdays tattoos- Big excited to do them.

Ok bye.

finally continuing my elden ring run and im about to fight radahn everyone please pray 4 me

thank you player johnathan who face tanked draconic tree sentinel like a champ while i ran away and spammed glintblade

radahn is dead let’s goooooo

a lot of people say that sellen turned herself into the sorcerer ball with one of her experiments and that’s definitely plausible but i think it’s far more likely that rennala did it?

sellen says “the queen of raya lucaria gone” and takes her spot in the library 

then when you come back when sellen is balled (hah) rennala is back in her usual spot

i think millicent and her sisters were born of malenia when she released her scarlet bloom in aeonia similar to how spores are shaken from mushrooms which makes sense thematically

millicent says she doesn’t know how she’s related to malenia only that she is “of her” and also proposes she is an “offshoot” along with sister or daughter

gowry also refers to millicent’s mother in a very worshipful way and given that he worships malenia that would make sense (even if she birthed the sisters not through usual means) and when millicent is at the haligtree finally gowry says “following in the steps of her mother”

i have wiped on astel at least five times with it having a sliver of health because of that stupid fucking grab mechanic

thank you player “dont die” for helping me with malenia u gave me the motivation to not die

millicent’s last words to you being to leave her and go because she doesn’t want to hurt you as she dies

ok i called a night because one of the great jar knights one shot me

death frogs my beloathed

last night i killed morgott and golden godfrey in one try and i am still so baffled why astel of all bosses almost broke me

ok the failing repeatedly at a boss, going to bed, waking up and killing it first try phenomenon needs to be studied
