Compiled over the course of a few weeks:

"Deniro" by Alec Benjamin is Yuuki Mishima-core.

Keiji and Haruto are narrative foils to one another, way more than I expected when I created them, but they don't have romantic tension like foils tend to. Those two are the farthest thing from being an item, even in the warmest/healthiest stages of their relationship.

Lol I watched Everything Everywhere All At Once tonight (Sep 23rd) and the thing that gave me an existential crisis was realizing that Atlus (the company that makes the Persona series) also made the freaking Trauma Center games /j

I found the Great British Baking Show soundtrack on Spotify but can't find my favorite song 😭

"I cannot love things calmly. I must love things ferociously" —Alan Seawright, 2022, saying the most relatable thing I've ever heard in my life.

I hardly give a single shit about the Sonic the Hedgehog series but I do really love Tails for basically no goddamn reason. I hardly know ANYTHING about this franchise! WHY do I like Tails so much?!

Just unlocked one of those really old, forgotten memories. I had this really strange Dora the Explorer nightlight when I was very small. It wasn't creepy or anything, that's not what I mean by strange. It just had an odd texture that I've never seen in another nightlight. It was soft, slightly squishy plastic bits that were connected but had tiny gaps between them, and they somehow made up Dora without making her look horrifying. It was big, too. I definitely didn't have it for long— in all honesty, I've never been afraid of the dark— but the thought of it is comforting even now, a decade and a half later (at least).

Why is reading so hard? I've kicked ass on my homework this past week because I've been trying to get everything out of the way to play the Derek DLC as much as possible. I have basically EVERYTHING taken care of for tomorrow and Friday. Except for the analysis of my Japanese Food and Health culture class readings (yes, I'm literally Tozen-core, so be it /lh). I don't even find this reading boring, but I've been putting it off for days at this point because reading is so much harder to focus on than ANY other kind of work.
