Probably not what anyone would've wanted, but what you're getting.

MASSIVE LDOD SPOILER FOR CHAPTER 4

I just realized I never specified which of Yuu's feet had all of the nails ripped off, and now I'm kind of having an existential crisis because I SWORE that that was something I mentioned and just forgot.

SPOILER CONCLUDED

I'm so desperate for content that I'm legit a hair's thread away from signing up for Dropout AND becoming a GBPatch patron simultaneously. Update: I have Dropout. Still heavily considering GBPatch.

My reactions to Persona 5 Strikers:
A woman acts very kind and cheery for essentially no reason— "I do NOT trust you, I in fact believe you to be nefarious."
A pompous jerk who is very obviously going to be the next boss does his thing— "I like you, you're an asshole."

I had an Adversity Twins dream for the first time in years (I THINK; there may have been one more recent, but Idrk). Honestly, it was kind of nice. It felt like a more mature, cozy, toned-down version of the raw fanaticism I had toward them in middle school. I think, through the years, they've gone from being my obsessions to being comfort characters that I feel... grateful to. It may seem super lame, but I think everyone needs something that makes them unabashedly joyful when they're that young. They brought me a lot of happiness and, like, stability, in a very important time. I'm glad they exist, and, even though it was definitely overboard, I'm glad that baby me found them so loveable.

I want to be officially done with the Game Grumps, but even though I told YouTube to stop recommending their channel, I still get seventy billion other channels with GG compilations or animations, etc. If something interesting comes up, I get my hopes up and then immediately get disappointed again at just how much disdain Arin seems to have for story-based games.

FRICK I forgot that I can't ship Fabian Seacaster and Riz Gukgak because Riz is Aro-Ace and now I need to mourn the loss of a ship I've had for literally like a couple days.

You know... out of everything I've ever been a massive fan of, Hatoful Boyfriend might just be my favorite, if I look at things objectively. Even if it's been a long time since I've focused on it, the slightest scrap of fanmade content can pull me right back into the happy feelings. It makes me laugh, it has made me cry a LOT, I recommend it to a lot of people even when I'm embarrassed. It's intensely thought-provoking. I love talking about it. I have plushies. I have my favorite Hatoful Boyfriend-related Tumblr pages. Even though it's been like five years and news is sparse, I still fervently await the third game. I think Our Life is the only thing that can give it an honest run for its money. I would say they're tied.

I love YTTD Track 77. For roughly two years now, I've played it when I feel anxious and need something comforting. As much as I'd love to chat about my appreciation for it, though, I want to talk about something else. Its tempo. For some reason, it never feels like it's playing at the same speed. Sometimes it feels like it's way faster than I remember, occasionally it feels slower than I thought. Rarely does it ever feel completely correct.

I'm trying to find a way to express this and failing so it's time for monkey brain. Cold faucet water for hand washing. Product of Satan. Really warm but not scalding faucet water for hand washing. Everything I need in life.
