Did you know? I have a sticky note on the wall behind my desk telling me what to post on Dreamwidth on certain days of the week. I was too busy and tired to actually do it even semi-consistently for a while, but while I'm free I'd like to try it. This entry will be yesterday and the day before's ... prompts? Subjects? In one. (Why not today's prompt ? Don't feel like it.)

First: I will be answering all the questions in one of those ask memes that get spread around. I would never get enough likes to be able to answer more than 3 max, so I'll be doing them all here.

( 47 Questions from Bluesky )

Now, I have to translate something. I'm going to go with a page or two from Angelique Memorial Book. The first few pages don't have any (non-English) text, so we move to page 8.

( Angelique Memorial Book - Angelique & Rosalia )

Bye for now. Starting Harukanaru Toki no Naka de now... >:) ... After I draw. I have to draw first. But then gaming.

Hello whoever may be reading this. Hope you're doing well, and if not, I hope things get better. This entry is like a combined journal entry + dump of links.

Favorite Game of 2024: Metal Gear Solid

Played most in January - 44 hours played - Jan 44, Feb 27, Mar 6, Apr 4, May 13, Jun 19, Jul 30, Sep 6, Oct 1, Nov 17

Narrative Adventure 26%, Action 23%, Character Driven 14%, Most-played Games of 2024: Harukanaru Toki no Naka de 7, Fashion Dreamer, Metal Gear Solid 2 / 28 total games, 171 total hours

Like how I never want to decide between Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask, I don't want to decide between Metal Gear Solid and Metal Gear Solid 2. When I beat 3 I'll probably feel the same. So I'm using MGS1 as a representation of all 3. Or all 2.2. Because I haven't beat Snake Eater. That's a 2025 goal for sure.

You know what's funny about my hours suddenly dipping in March... I think that's when I started Angelique. :P

That's all for now. See you around.

clavis’ eyes are very small, but his lid space… olivie should say something about this. his lid space is insane and he’s wasting it. and he’s handsome and mysterious - he could make an even greater mysterious beauty than olivie if he tried. he needs to be dolled up stat

and the craziest thing about clavis having lumiale play the harp for him till he goes sleepybye is i know damn well he has access to a stereo

i wish there were a more neutral word to use, but i'm pretty sure clavis is an orientalist. i mean it like a person who likes (the aesthetics of) the orient, in his case the far east specifically. i don't mean that he looks down on them or anythinginterestingly, there was no planet shown in tenkuu no requiem that seemed to be Space Japan. there were characters in trois who were giving asian fantasy... but they're apparently from the future of colette's universe?? not sure what to do with this information (not to mention they feel more chinese and clavis at his most orientalist, in etoile, has a japanese feel). (elda looks a rejected design from fushigi yuugi, but thats neither here nor there)

but anyways, #yea. add this to your list of clavis interests nonexistent fanfic writers..............

[02/10/25, 10:55 A.M.: repost from microblog. these posts are pretty much all normal things to say, so they get to be public]

Hello, person reading this. I hope you’re doing well. :3

To whom it may concern: I have decided I have succeeded in acclimating myself to Dreamwidth, and therefore no longer have a need to force myself to do weekly journals. Thus, I will no longer write such posts every weekend, only when something actually interesting happens. Some things I wanted to include in those posts have been put in a separate post category. Because I love making tables and lists, I have made a table with a suggestion for a type of post to make every day of the week. I don’t have to post every day or anything, but if I’m up for writing I already have ideas down. And “today” (since it’s 3 AM it’s Monday, but lets pretend it’s Sunday) is Review/Reaction Sunday. So let’s talk about things I’ve checked out recently! ^__^

Current Music: When a Man Loves a Woman - Percy Sledge

I completely forgot I had this in my Google Docs. As I was playing Retour I kept the page open and typed out things I would have shared as tweets (or as posts on some other microblogging site), but didn't because I'm easily embarrassed and don't like posting too much on such sites. Posting them here because I don't know what else to do with them. I wasn't going to include them in the big Angelique post for sure.

These absolutely aren't all the thoughts I felt I had to share while playing. Some really did land on Twitter or Bluesky and some are in DMs with friends. They'll all be summarized in the big post. Probably. This is assuming I really do write it and don't get too embarrassed or just plain lazy about it in the end.

Context for the mood at the end of this post: I'm doing schoolwork. Kind of. Honestly I'm reading a webcomic and occasionally remember I'm supposed to be writing something for school.

I completely forgot, the game was on my mind a few days before the voice line drops too. Why? They posted a picture of some side characters, and the not-Dorothy pink one is so... And I was going to make a tweet like "guy who hates when otome games have other women, not because he's misogynistic but because he gets mad he can't romance them," but didn't because no one cares. I care though. Because I was scrolling through and saw it again. Fuck my stupid baka life.

Current Music: If I Were Your Woman - Gladys Knight & The Pips

I realized if I'm thinking about something really hard, I don't have to wait until Saturday to post about it. 🤯 Crazy of me, I know.

I also have no icon that quite expresses the emotion I feel. I really need to add more icons. Anyways.

So. TLDR. I need Over Requiemz in my lap neow. When they upload pictures for the gallery that will probably minorly sate me, but I kind of need to meet Dorothy right now. Kaize too. It's free emo boy.

Now that I think about it. If they had just tweaked how the heroine looks a little, this bsky post I made could have been reality! Fuck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
