I really need to stop trying to come up with rational reasons why parents aren't really involved in the story I'm working on. If Clemont can get away with basically raising Bonnie and nobody bats an eye or questions anything, I can probably get away with it, too, maybe?

That moment when you make a side character to be the first fight in a villain-of-the-week type story and wind up loving him and wanting to put him more in the story.

You know, back when I was a preteen, the first Vocaloid song I ever fell in love with was ODDS&ENDS. I remember that when I told my friend, she said I have boring taste. I wasn't really insulted. I'm still not. She was always very direct and pretty funny, even if not always tactful. Due to very specific life circumstances, we're not in contact anymore. And I really wish I could find her. I miss her. Ironically, I think ODDS&ENDS suits her a lot. The lyrics, I mean.

AGHHHHH I HATE when I know something that characters don't know and can't do anything to stop it. Like, idiots, that's the spy RIGHT THERE.
Update: THE MOTHERFUCKER SAID HIS NAME AND NOBODY CAUGHT ON!

Great Ace Attorney Mechanic Spoilers
I love the summation examination mechanic in GAA1 and GAA2, but GOD I also hate it so much. As someone who hates conflict and failure, reaching a point where the whole jury is against you even if you play completely flawlessly is so anxiety-inducing. (But also, the music slaps)

I think it would be fun to be a horror. Like. Exist in a hotel hallway, standing there unmoving for as long as I possibly can. People could start to wonder why I'm there, when I'm going to leave, and I just won't. If someone goes to the pool, I'll still be there when they come back. If they go for ice, go on an errand, etc, I'll still be there when they come back. I'll follow them with my eyes. And if they try to talk to me, I won't say a word. I think I'd get thrown out. But someone would remember me as a creepy story for years.

Just saw a gigachad who not only used a spoiler tag, but ENCRYPTED THE SPOILERS WITH A CIPHER. Like, DAMN, what a legend!

Imagine a god who just really wants their right to privacy but they have whole churches and rituals and stuff meant to worship them, and people keep pouring over holy books trying to understand them more. That feels like a fun story concept.
