hater alert! far too many people say that juri’s character arc ‘isn’t about her being sad about being gay, it’s about being sad about unrequited love that happens to be gay’ and. well. that is not true and by saying that you are completely flattening the brilliance of juri’s character arc which literally culminates in her being able to accept her own lesbianism despite her unrequited love, despite all her shame and self-loathing, despite this pursuit by Some Fucking Guy to try and ‘save’ her from these feelings. like if you think juri’s entire character is just ‘sad about shiori’ how do you appreciate even a modicum of the emotion packed into that final juri duel. it is both about shiori and, even broader, her lesbian identity and what that means to her intrinsically as a person, removed from romantic relationships and just purely as like. you know. Who She Is. the idea that even when juri’s locket is cut from her neck she is still a lesbian that’s still who she is and she cant change that and, crucially, she doesn’t want to even as she is agonised by these feelings. that’s why she forfeits the duel!!!! she’s clocking out she’s quitting she’s saying no!!!!!! this is me and ive got to be ok with that this is me and i can accept that this girl might not love me and i can keep living despite that. like. god im so normal arisugawa juri im so sorry that no one understands you and your intrinsically unapologetically lesbian storyline like i do

Do you ever think about how there totally could have been an old classmate of Phoenix Wright and Miles Edgeworth in the audience during like turnabout sister or turnabout samurai. Do you think they would realize? Like “hey, were those the guys in my class in like fourth grade? I kinda remember them. Wonder if they remember each other. But it was so long ago, I doubt they would even care.” Meanwhile Edgeworth and Phoenix are undergoing the most insane mental battles where both of them are going “I recognize my best friend across the courtroom and I desperately want to be close with them again.” And “god he is so god damn annoying I wish he would die already.”

It’s been said before and the fact that I’m an Izzy simp aside like having a character who survives the most certain death shit ever (shooting himself in the head at point blank) and literally being nicknamed by another character “indestructible” and then become a symbol of protection for a whole group of people die from a fucking bullet to the side that was established in universe to have no vital organs in order to “atone for his sins” or however you wanna spin it and have him say he wants to go after (see point one) literally trying to kill himself in the show that is literally about growth and betterment of the self in a cruel world that wants you dead and where the main (and mostly queer) characters survive the most batshit insane injuries is like COSMICALLY stupid writing like I don’t even understand how you get there and the fact that it’s supposed to be a kind/ happy/meaningful ending is beyond me

Watching young royals for the first time and I just finished all of s1 and e1 of s2 and this show????? My heart is breaking every 10 minutes, but beyond that, Wille really has no one. They took everyone away from him, there is absolutely no one there for him when he needs them. With everything that has happened to him I am worried - I don’t know how s2 ends, but if something doesn’t get better sooner rather than later, I think we’re looking at a spiral

How did you count how many people you are? Like did you send out a mental event invite for Key System Head Party and 78 people hit "I'm Attending" or ...?

unfortunately no the actual reality is a lot more boring. see, when we figured out the whole plural thing via the first person appearing a little two years ago, we had three people- me, the new guy (X), and someone else who had apparently been stuck in the walls since the night before (Carl). we kept track of everyone with a bot called PluralKit for Discord, and as more and more people showed up we added profiles for them as well! people have come and gone for various reasons but we keep count of all of the permanent residents and that's how we know :]

honestly the fact that the childhood traumatized/queer side of the internet has not gotten hooked on Promiseland by Mika yet is beyond me. that shit is literal crack from the first line to the last

i think i'm going to have to commit to dak-wai not recruiting jaheira, at least definitely not as presented in-game, because it is. a bit too much for dak-wai to go So now that we've killed all your coworkers who were just transformed into shadow-cursed undead, the truth is after you let me into last light despite your reservations isobel is dead 'because' of 'me,' and jaheira like. just takes the 'i was compelled' explanation in stride and still decides to team up after sleeping on it i guess. I do think in that situation you sprint to baldur's gate and grab your kids and get the fuck out of dodge, even if you have an inkling that this rando might be a morally conflicted bhaalspawn. like i'd have to craft a whole other scenario where the party runs into her again in the city, after dak-wai's had the bhaalspawn revelation, and they can properly hash things out. However dak-wai is also just fundamentally incompatible with minsc
