This is going to just be a ramble of all my current thoughts and obsessions. (I'm sick, loosing my mind.)
(Edited to have a cut, now that I've discovered them!)
One, Tamagotchi are unbelievably charming. I don't know what about them hitches to me so well, but, perhaps it just digs into that itch of mine to be caring over something... (Even if I don't always do a good job at raising them. Especially the vintage re-releases.)
As of right now, my collection consists of three re-releases. Two gen 2 re-releases, and one gen 1 re-release.
Then, I have one nano tamagotchi -- which is demon slayer. I've never watched the anime, but I did recognize the character. (This one actually passed away today, my bad lil' man...)
Then I have two color Tamagotchi, the newer releases of the Tamagotchi Pix and Tamagotchi Uni. I actually bought a case for both of them, but only one has arrived in the mail. It's extremely adorable.
I've had three generations on my Tamagotchi Uni so far, and two generations on my Tamagotchi Pix.
I'm currently fixated on the Tamagotchi Angel, I love the concept. I also really want one of the Tamagotchi Connections, thought I'm not sure which generation I would get first...
I used to have a hello kitty nano, but, I gave it away to a friend during Christmas. I think she'll take better care of the lil' thing anyway. (It was just sitting in my little back I keep all my batteries, tamagotchi, and their instructions in. Christmas was the reason I got back into my collection again.)
Two, Women.
Specifically women x women relationships. Me? Myself? I'm a man, but the depictions and artwork I see of these wlw relationship just resonates somewhere so deep within my soul. The artwork itself nuzzles this warm feeling into my stomach. It's beautiful. I'm always making homophobic jokes about lesbians (as a man with a preference for men,) but at the end of the day.
Their so beautiful. Their love is beautiful, it can be shown in such a raw and pure way and the woman / feminine body is the true meaning of natural beauty.
Their enchanting, and two of them showing love and care for each other in a world that opposes and exploits them? Sitting naked together in each other's embrace, simply in love? It rings so hard. It shakes me.
Women are beautiful. They are so so gorgeous.
Three, Animal Crossing.
I bought wild world for the 3DS. The console I have itself is a New 2DS XL. (That one handheld known for its sleak rounded corners and blue and black exterior.)
It should be arriving tomorrow, so, hopefully that's fun. I really love immersive games. Immersive games comfort and draw me in, maybe it's escapism.
I wish there was more character to the villagers, like how New Leaf gave me a taste of it. I've heard Wild World is one of the best in the series and I'm excited to play it.
New horizons is pretty cool, considering it was the second thing that introduced me to the franchise and got me so attached to it. But, what originally started me was actually Pocket camp... (I'm so upset that my phone isn't compatible for it. Why do games just... Not like my current phone model?)
New Horizons -- is great for the creative, but it's not very immersive after a while. But it's a good game to play when just winding down.
New leaf, you have to be consistent for things to progress. And I am... Definitely not. But there's a lot of charm in it, I love the mini games.
Genji is my favorite (if not noticeable by the fact that he's literally my profile picture...)
Also, can we just talk about Tipper T. Bunny for a moment? So many people theorize about him not actually being a bunny, but I think otherwise. Considering we have characters like Stitches that are definitely stuffed animals operating as actual animals. I think Tipper is similar to him, in a sense, but a lot more self conscious about it.
He reminds me of those stuffed animal bags that you can use as a purse and open on their back, which can be pretty popular around Easter time.
It would be a little embarrassing if you could be opened like a bag, wouldn't it? I think it just endears me to the character, honestly, with that perspective at least. Him being self conscious, which could explain his moping and sighs when no ones looking.
He's cute, really. The same could be said even if he is another animal or human wearing a costume, he's self conscious of his actual self but feels unfulfilled pretending to be something else? So he plays up his positivity and caves when alone? Is it a job that he had to settle for?
Cutie patootie...
I wish that feature of Villagers gaining crushes still was in the games, despite never experiencing it for myself. It sounds cute, and they would never have to make it more 'explicit.' (With obvious confessions or asking the player out.)
But like, imagine one of your villagers randomly complimenting you with the blushing emote. "Wow, [user], you look... Wow."
And then moving on with their day. It would be so sweet. And the smug villagers in new leaf had something like that, it was a little shocking but it hit.
Tom Nook is so underrated too? Like, actually. Tom Nook is a lot kinder than he's made out to be, even thought he was quite 'rude' in past games.
I love all of the characters. Even Isabelle and she used to tick me off, due to the fact in New Horizons she didn't have much of a role nor any time to spend with her once she arrived. Just... Straight to her being there. Her taking over the announcements helped this, though.
But once I played new leaf, I understood the hype for her. Which is kind of sad, she deserves to have the build up in New horizons too.
And her brother? Their so cute.
I'm actually a little obsessed with Amiibo cards at the moment as well. I have about 40 of them, with most of them being Season 5 due to that being the easiest to obtain in my area. (Found them at a target, and I had a target gift card from Christmas...)
I do really like collecting things...
This is literally just my mind rolling and me spewing whatever words come out, if that's not obvious.
Four, Sickness.
I'm sick. Again. I actually almost freaked out yesterday due to the fact I was forced to go to a hospital, I'm very tired of going to clinics and getting swab tested. But, it wasn't that bad.
The nurse was actually quite goofy and if I wasn't feverish and just wanting to lay down and sleep, I would of goofed along. He was very kind and made sure you knew you could count on him. The doctor had the same sort of vibe to him, generally just really cozy hospital staff.
It was nice considering I was dying inside and very displeased to have to go through that (getting swabbed while having a sore throat, COVID tested, flu tested... Again. I've had the throat swab so many times, I know techniques for it.)
My tonsils/throat is the first thing to be inflamed whenever I get sick. So I've talked with people about getting my tonsils removed, because they just seem to cause me issues.
(I got a positive test for Strep throat and had a tempture of 101. Although my fever did break this morning!)
Five, sonic.
Look, as much as I love sonic... I am struggling to bad to keep up with him right now. (Which is ironic, since he's so fast.)
I wanna watch Sonic Prime, but movies and shows stress me out. It's kind of why I prefer immersive or cozy games instead. That, or books. Because I can walk away from a book and come back when I'm calm or in a comfortable enough mindset to continue.
I loved Season one of Sonic Prime and it became my comfort show, but watching beyond the first season has become a major struggle for me.
I'm not entirely sure why. But I do have some guesses.
Also... One of the best sonic things I've read was a fan fiction. You do NOT play with fanfic authors, it is either the most down bad and criminal thing ever, or the most beautifully crafted story you will ever cherish between your hands as you scroll on your phone at midnight and realize it's suddenly six in the morning. And your fighting the urge to lay down because there's only three chapters left...
Sure, it was Sonic x Shadow. (Not my go to ship, since I don't ship Sonic with other characters. I enjoy the idea of Sonic and Amy having tried to be a couple in the past, and it not working out, but making them closer best friends. Or maybe even, Knuckles and Rouge? It's cute. As long as their isn't weird age gaps or explicit or non-explicit incest (example, Sonic x tails. They have a brotherly bond and I would consider that 'non-explicit' incest due to them not actually being siblings. But it has a weird age gap and very uncomfortable power dynamic even if they saw each other as equals, so I am not for it.) Besides this, I'm really down for any ship.
But it was a slow burn that was so well written? Like, woah???
It's currently not finished but has such a rich story that reminds me of beauty and the beast that it just... Wow.
Slow burns are my cup of tea, for sure.
... Okay okay, I think that's enough 'useless' ranting.
