i was giving a presentation and somehow made one of my classmates laugh until she cried
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
noice I pushed a car out of soot and wet snow and then got a free beer from a fellow guy pushing out and we had a shared moment of laughing at immigrants who can't into winter
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
It is quite surprising how easy cars are to push in the end
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Oh and the idiot drove down a hill, where he most likely then got stuck but at tht point it wasn't our problem anymore. seriously, switch to winter tears in time
>>319218 Just threw that word around you lot lack 10-20 words for snow afterall think of it as sand like snow sohjo is the word
Kirara🎃
>>319219 nice! >>319220 oh, i see. that does sound like it'd stick a car
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Basically you have normal snow then you have slightly wet snow, you can mold into balls easily and snowmans andwhatnot that is usualyl what first snow comes out as - nuoska then you have snow that is about 50% water and 50% solid still and that is sohjo and then it becomes loska when it is just slush like a smoothie ro something still sitcks to a solid form, but in all forms it is practically just water with ice crystals in it >>319221 yeah and the guy didn't have any kind of winter tires so 100% stuck without people pushing happens all the time, and sometimes even with winter tires.
im getting second author on that hurricane decision making papet wooooo
>>319222 not having winter tires in finnish winter seems like madness
Koi-
>>319225 That's awesome. First author soon. By Dr. Rara
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>319225 "winter surprised drivers" is article written in every tabloid each year around this time of the year
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
But you see the thing is, most people either can't bother to change the tires themselves, it does take an hour or two and to fit that into busy workschedule can be hard and doing it then on a weekend, welp... and then you have people who lack the equipment to do it, not a wise choise, so they have to use mechanics to do it for them which means booking a time for you and man are they busy changing tires at this time and then there are people who have their winter tires stored in a "hotel" for tires, which makes it even more difficult to change them, as you need to fetcht hemf rom there and book a time to do it and most likely time for them to change them for you so while some just lack the smarts or foresight to do it, other simpyl can't do it in time first snow can afterall come aptrubtly just lask week we went from 5-10 to 0 to -5 in one night
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
For example last week I got called to switch my step-father's tires, as his health is ailing and he should avoid hard work like that
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
So say i was abroad and he couldn't call anyone else he too might still be driving with summer tires
I need to read and reread all this stuff about dual employment/ outside activity I need to know how this stuff works before I create blue businesses

My presentation was on gender roles in Judaism and whenever I asked for participation, I'd throw a piece of gelt at the person that answered the question. It was really fun. Someone told me that giving them a shekel was the highlight of their semester. That's kind of sad but I guess it's good for me.

man the 1-2dl of wine I used in cooking was bit too much but man is this good soup

AnnoTN !PcAPtAiNJo
btw does anyone here watch The Great War on yt?
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
really tasty soup but I doubt I could serve it to anyone I know it packs a real good punch in spiciness and hotness
It looks quite tempting I ate a halloween donut it had melted liquorice as covering and what I presume was pumpkin jam inside it was really delish though I still like the basic berliner more

I wonder what went through the staff's heads at the moment...
WEll yeah slenderman was already inspired by 70s and 80s movies and stuff a lot and the show takes 70s and 80s stuff a lot into it so you have a modern monster that is those decades condensed into a single being so why not use it as inspiration or outright use it?
it's black pepper. I did the same thing yesterday when I went to get fries from Five Guys
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
it is so great a local company here had a "black pepper ketchup" as a product for few years

I mix it in though or else everything gets caught on one fry

an excellent tribute
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
it worked

the moment the altar was complete and we ebgun our rites of worship the buzzer started beeping or the staff just went "uhh these guys went insane, better give them food quick or"

/moe/ my dearest mother is making a horrible fucking decision with $100,000 she's about to buy a very shitty house, and i know its simply because the seller is a nice vietnamese man and she wants me to live with her and help her pay the mortgage, despite the fact that she made this decision entirely without any input from me actually scratch that, she has gotten input from me, and she knows damn well how i feel
what makes matters worse is that we were literally on the verge of buying a much better house, when suddenly she found this one and changed her mind
the other house was literally valued by the insurance company to be about $35,000 more than we were gonna steal it for - if you need an objective example of why it was such a greater deal

"medium" drink
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>319418 I have no idea about the scale cute aobest
Kirara🎃
each of those squares are like 2.5cmx2.5cm or something
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>319420 doesn't help that much but yeah "medium" indeed
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
wait "medium" as in "this is too small" or like I use quotations as in condescending so "too small"?
Kirara🎃
it's like 9cm tall too it's too big to be a medium imo that's like three servings of soda
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Well yeag but if you paid for medium and got a large drink sized I wouldn't complain really especially since I only do no-sugar ones
Kirara🎃
i paid for a medium and got a medium it's just crazy how big they are npw
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I guess so? I wouldn't complain if I got more for my buck, that is
>>319427 cause people order food and don't eat it? I think that isnät the fault of the service provider but of the customers or the culture all around it
which i won't it's really bad for you to drink all that
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Cause you fucking west atlantic critters are WASTE LVOERS you lot make a lot more than you use
FormerRei@mobile
>>319431 Actually most people drink the whole thing Which is part of why so many Americans are fat Because oversized portions
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>319432 that piost has nothing to do with the drink size just now, bnut just general statistics of "food produced and not imported/food consumed by nation" *food produced and not imported + food exported/food consumed"
FormerRei@mobile
>>319433 Well part of the food produced and not used comes from fucked up stuff where farmers get paid to let certain crops rot in their fields
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>319434 and good amount of that food gets thrown away at the port that it is loaded unto the ships and then on the ports it is unloaded off the ships and then again on the stores tht sell them and then by the people who buy them
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>319432 >Which is part of why so many Americans are fat >Because oversized portions this is more of an issue about food culture than consumption if people simply do their own meals, they eat a lot healthier by average the fact that you can buy a premade meal or a fast food meal for the same price or similiar price, but saved time makes it even
is the main fault
Kirara🎃
most americans are taught that they have to eat all the food on their plate when they're growing up or at least they used to be, i guess american culture is like an elephant shitting into an industrial fan
>>319439 i think fast food is evil and the culture is too it's all evil and bad
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>319441 fast food is as evil as a sword or a gun or a nuke
Kirara🎃
nukes are evil but guns are good
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
yet nukes have saved more lives than guns have ever killed
Kirara🎃
true i guess america is evil and nukes are good
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
lol
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
But still nothing explains the low prices of fast food in USA I mean your proper restaurant prices are at about same level as the rest of the world or so I think but your fast food prices are at about developing or third world countries
FormerRei@mobile
>>319447 It's literally to encourage people to buy it
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>319448 Even at the level of the market it should barely even out so either the fast food companies barely pay taxes or shit or there is soemthing else amock
FormerRei@mobile
It's also why poor people are disproportionately obese conpared to people of higher income levels >>319449 They pay their workers terribly and cut corners everywhere
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>319450 The poor people would also eat a lot better if they fucking made their own meals than eat the shit preproduced by fast food industry or prepackaged meal industry
>>319454 Once again why every person this side of the puddle has a love hate relationship with EU that fucking sitpiece organisation is partially responsible WHY we have so good standards of life
FormerRei@mobile
>>319455 Not just that, in a lot of areas there aren't even places to buy fresh produce So not only does it take moee time to maje your own healthier food, it takes more time to go buy healthy ingredients Which many people just don't have the time for
>>319457 I just don't have anything to say to this you say tyou ahve more fast food joints than grocery stores or you think only fresh from farm products are healthy or people do thnk so
FormerRei@mobile
>>319459 You're putting words in my mouth, but yes there are absolutely more fast food places than grocery stores in many places And
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
that is why I said "or people do think so" about the latter

If you want a bad side of imperialism you have all of African and Middle-eastern conflicts there they are indirect result of the artifial nations created by the "release shit from our imperial thumbs" now had they been kept under imperial rule they would have been more secure sure it would have ALSO resulted in many deaths due to taking down revolters etc but Overall death count would have been less and the region would be more developed
Kirara🎃
yeah but i want everything to be balkanized
TN !PcAPtAiNJo

One of the newer guys that work at my job is a bit of a character. He's one of those guys that earnestly believes he's some kind of apex human bean because he smokes weed and does psychedelic recreational drugs. It's not like he's a proper asshole about it but he's REALLY behind the beneficial aspects of doing those things. Other than that he's a social, friendly guy and I don't really think overall poorly of him. But to hear him talk about drugs is a little exhausting. He tried to sell me on the Stoned Ape theory on the first day he was working and it was a little tough to weave my way around being polite but not inclined to believe that.
He leans really, really close to being one of those weednation kind of guys who are pretty much only really defined by their use of marijuana but he can hold a conversation without drifting into the subject. But the majority of things he talks about are still pretty easy to connect back to pot.

You see this stuff and all you can think is "wait, you can DO that?"

>>319694 It's a fun game. The world is much larger than I expected. I find myself getting sidetracked all the time.
Anno
Yeah, it's really expansive. In some parts it can some time err very close to the "big but empty" side of the large game world designing, but I feel they've done enough to avoid most people feeling there's not enough. Plus there's some parts of the world where there's a lot of action and they're common enough to keep you moving from place to place. i think I've used the fast-travel once, when I was stuck in a particularly obtuse place to backtrack out of, and haven't found myself bored with the travelling yet.
A lot of things on my attention radar are coming out this Friday, or at least around it. Stranger Things 2, Odyssey, new Assassin's Creed, Thor Ragnarok, probably a couple other things I can't remember because there's a lot already.
Well I don't pirate them. And I play online -on PC so digital is my only real option. I didn't play the France one because it was a slovenly piece of shit, but I've been -but I've at least tried playing all the other ones so far. The Assassin's Creed games have always been a personal pleasure of mine. I like the historical reconstructions and climbing shit and being assassin-y is fun for me. The collectathon nature of a lot of the side content is fine by me too since I enjoy autistically being thorough with finding all that shit. As well, the most recent one, Syndicate, was a very well-made game in my opinion and helps improve my opinion of the developers who work on the franchise. I'm not going to buy it day-one and I don't fall for the pre-ordering, but I'll keep a close eye on the conversation about the game and probably buy it within a week or two of release.

On e of my favourite "coded in to be stupid" things is when you ZA WARUDO an enemy about to throw something. If you freeze the object, the enemy still goes through with the motions to throw it, but just throws air. If you freeze the enemy, the object will fall away, but once they come out of the timestop the enemy still throws air before "realizing" there's nothing there anymore. It's a refreshing change from "enemy instantly altering their plan of action because AI can react with lightning speed".

Playing another game immediately after playing BotW feels really weird BotW has so much interactivity In most games you can't go around chopping up random trees for example

>>319787 Eternal Sunshine is supposed to be really good, i haven't seen it yet but its by one of my favorite screenwriters.
FormerRei@mobile
Anyways Fistful of Dollars is actually a remake of the film Yojimbo by Akira Kurosawa. If you're into samurai stuff at all I'd recommend it. Kurosawa was a really good director.
FormerRei@mobile
Well really I'd recommend it whether or not you are particularly into samurai stuff or not. I also recommend Seven Samurai, Ran and Rashomon. Although that last one is a bit heavy.
bangu
i mean if i ever get the time yeah i've had John Wick downloaded for like two months now
FormerRei@mobile
>>319803 Apparently John Wick is in continuity with the Payday games.
Shit the only Australian films I can think of that I've seen are Crocodile Dundee 1 and 2, Rabbit Proof Fence and The Coca Cola Kid.
FormerRei@mobile
Coca Cola Kid was pretty good. I wouldn't put it up there with Rabbit Proof Fence but it was certainly much more entertaining.
Anno
mad max was alright I guess
FormerRei@mobile
Oh shit Yeah I've seen the first one So that's five Australian films I've probably seen more though You ever see Coca cola kid?
Anno
don't think I've heard of it
Anno
Glad Max
FormerRei@mobile
>>319836 It's about a guy from the coca cola company headquarters who gets sent to Australia because there's a region in which they have no sales So they send him to figure out why and then increase sales
Anno
he's really fucking glad if you see him watch out
FormerRei@mobile
It has music in it done by Tim Finn and hhis brother. Neil Finn From Crowded House (and Split Enz)
Anno
>>319839 oh I think it sounds familiar >>319843 rowded house are pretty nice crowed rowdy house
Oh wait I think I've read about this guy somewhere before
FormerRei@mobile
I was actually in the middle of listening to an album with Henry Rollins on it before I started posting youtube links and watching stuff other people posted. I'll finish watching that interview some other time.
Anno
they're kind of neat okay to watch when your bored
FormerRei@mobile
I don't know if you kknow much about Rollins But back in the eighties he'd beat the shit out of people at concerts for messing with him People would throw stuff at him or try to grab him while he was performing. So he got jacked and then started to beat them up There's probably more of a story but I never read Get in the Van.
FormerRei@mobile
You much into punk stuff at all?
Anno
eh I was for a bit I guess
FormerRei@mobile
You like MC5 at all? Well, they're not really punk. But in retrospect wouod be called proto punk.
Oh shit If I'm gonna ttry to sleep i should probably switch from my punk playlist to a classical music one
Anno
yeah you do your thing haha >>319907 they seem good
FormerRei@mobile
I'm gonna check how far into it i am first though
FormerRei@mobile
Okay just a bit less than halfway through I've been listening to this playlist for like 10 hours
FormerRei@mobile
It's for the most part alphabetical I'm at M for Minor Threat
FormerRei@mobile
Although it's not really all punk just mostly punk Also I love how I can scroll through a list of hundreds of songs in thirty seconds and each time I see a song name I remember the song But it would take me a few hours to actually lusten to them all
Not a punk song by the way It's a sort of psychedelic thing but not really easily classifiable
FormerRei@mobile
The lyrics also tell an interesting story.
FormerRei@mobile
The main guy ftom that band is named Robyn Hitchcock and he had a pretty decent solo career post Soft Boys. I've seen him in concert three times. But every time its been an acoustic set which bothers me a bit.
Anno
gives me prog vibes for some reason
FormerRei@mobile
Also his stuff is really weird Lyrically
FormerRei@mobile
Oh I think he's on tour in Australia right now
FormerRei@mobile
>>>/watch?v=R1z4IJc9fNk This version is good because of the weird intro monologue thing He just says really weird stuff sometimes
bangu
GOD GAMERS EACH AND EVERY ONE OF US WE WERE BORN TO GAME
Anno
do you want to see a shitpost
Anno
well too bad
FormerRei@mobile
Robyn Hitchcock's current backing band is pretty impressive he's got Peter Buck from R.E.M., King Crimson's current drummer and then another guy who was in R.E.M. but not really that important cause he joined in like 94
FormerRei@mobile
Well also the drummer was in r.e.m. he replaced the original drummer in the late 90's cause that guy had a stroke or something He was in a bunch of other bands too, Ministry and I think KMFDM but not 100% sure
I've been meaning to listen to them orange crush and what not are good
FormerRei@mobile
>>319929 Duuuude They're so good I highly rremember them Especially their stuff from when they were on I.R.S. records. Murmur, Reckoning, Fables of the Reconstruction, Life's Rich Pageant and Document Although really Murmur, Reckoning and Document are probably my favorite three albums by them.
FormerRei@mobile
*highly recommend them
FormerRei@mobile
Oh wow I've grown a beard I don't think ive gone this long without shaving in a very long time.
Anno
I can't stand going without a shave
Anno
actually I can it just gets irrating and I don't like beards all that much
FormerRei@mobile
It really irritates me but my schedule has been so wacky for the past six days or so that after every shower ive been too tired to shave *sleep schedule
FormerRei@mobile
Heh This comic is so good
FormerRei@mobile
>>319934 Are you NEET like me or are you a student or employed?
Anno
I don't work all that much in fact my contract is probably going to be cut down I used to work 20hrs a wk and now they want me to eat 6hrs a wk
FormerRei@mobile
They want you to eat 6hrs a week? How would you even eat an hour?
Anno
>eat don't know how that happened fruedian slip maybe gonna go get dinner
>>319952 No I'm shit at math Which I should have considered before doing an econ majour >oh it's what I was good at in HS, I might as well do it in uni too
>>319975 i spent ninety nine cents on a mobile game today
sk
Oh yeah, dressup in MMOs is fun too FFXIV has good dress up
Anno
my favorite part of MMOs is wearing silly outfits or dressing up all fancy >>319979 players have been organizing that kind of thing for a long time in mmos. I know at least recently, WoW had a minigame that involved creating an outfit and voting on the one that matched the theme the most, too.
Maria
Do MMOs have beauty pagents where players vote on which character looks the best?
I'm the kind of MMO player who doesn't want to wear the best shit if it looks dumb I will, but begrudgingly
Anno
Well that's kind of why so many MMOs nowadays have cosmetic slots or some similar mechanic, isn't it. You're actively discouraging players by not letting them dress up however the fuck they want.
i wrote an ethereum smart contract today woo it works all it does is store money and flush it out to a hardcoded address on demand but yey
Anno
So something that could be used to set up automated payments?
Samu ☕️ !KW2DbpWwls
>>319986 conceivably it can't trigger it self or anything though it sits there passively until someone pokes it (by spending a tiny amount of ETH on it) and then it burps out all its cash
bangubangu
>>319987 OH SO LIKE caps oh so like maybe something tips or donates to a streamer or maybe hmmmm
Samu ☕️ !KW2DbpWwls
yeah more complex contracts are possible i just wrote like the simplest thing just to see if it works
it's time to launch moecoin
bangu
i would invest in moecoin
Samu ☕️ !KW2DbpWwls
how many moecoins should come into existence?
bangu
probably only a few hundred thousand
Samu ☕️ !KW2DbpWwls
maybe just 1000 super rare
Anno
Drive that imaginary speculation value up into the stratosphere by making them super limited edition.
bangu
1 moecoin
Samu ☕️ !KW2DbpWwls
zero moecoins to start one issued every new year
bangu
ow profitable is mining at this point has bitcoin raised enough value that it's actually cost effective to mine anymore
Samu ☕️ !KW2DbpWwls
>>319998 mining is super competitive there's no way to get any coin through mining alone anymore unless someone were to nuke several datacenters in china
but i think you can join a GPU mining pool and earn some tiny fraction of a cent
Anno
>>319996 He who owns the whole moecoin Controls the world
Samu ☕️ !KW2DbpWwls
dear god the /moe/ is dead
Anno
omg
Samu ☕️ !KW2DbpWwls
what a wholesome girl
Samu ☕️ !KW2DbpWwls
her methods are inscrutable the proof is irrefutable
Anno
fuck
Anno
why is my internet a shit right now

Kirara🎃
hello sammybaby what's the haps up early or up late?
Samu ☕️ !KW2DbpWwls
>>320010 up early oh god i should be asleep but my schedule has been messed up this week you're up nice and early eh
Kirara🎃
I've always been a bit of an early riser. My schedule's messed up this week, too, though, haha.
Kirara🎃
There was an update available for my Android software this morning but AT&T didn't tell me what was in it. I hope it's the security update.
>>320078 Don't forget Spain votes to use super rare article to seize control of Catalonia. Dangerous times ahead.
sk
Spain can eat my whole ass
Koi-
Our official support for Spain "unity" came so fast that I forgot that this sort of speed is supposed to be normal.
sk
That's a fucking copout stance That means whatever you want it to
Koi-
No, it's not a copout stance, it's actually very 'direct'. The rest of the statement said that we support Spain doing whatever they plan to do to maintain Catalonia as a part of their nation.
That's the plan It's a wild ride sober, so this should be hella fun I got dutchfriend with me, though he'll be sober
I dunno if he's watched it before or not, actually
ToN
I wonder how pan felt since he barely drank anything while i got destroyed i feel like staying sober while people around you dont would be kind of eg eh
sk
Being the only sober person usually blows
ToN
He verbally shitposted while i subjected him to mmd videos
It is amusing how they kept the Alpha and Omega in all translations of the biblee in english it should be A and Z
sk
JP is so fucking cool
Koi-
>>320111 I just had a chicken ramen with an egg that was boiled this morning I feel alive. The pieces are just coming into place. On my bowl
Koi-
>Houseki no Kuni art hitting global rank 1 on pixiv I feel happy knowing that this show is turning out nice. This manga took me for a trip that day. I should catch up on it.
ToNbangu
i just booked my hotel woo woooooo
bangu
i just booked my barber tomorrow wooo woooooooo
FormerRei@mobile
I just got up I had thought i set an alarm so I was half asleep in bed waiting for it to go off for a few hours
sk
If you just let yourself get lost in it, redline is a completely wild ride
Koi-
Not enjoying Redline is not enjoying anything. It's funny how they go out of their way to thwart an entire militant regime just to race on their planet against their laws.
Koi-
Like how deep are the pockets of that racing federation
>>320131 Yo I'm jelly Unless you mean some ACM other than The Association for Computing Machinery. In which case >>320133 Yeah I'm jelly That's not even your field wtf?
Kirara🎃
that's the one i mean
FormerRei@mobile
Okay so now with this you may actually have an Erdos number. Good luck figuring it out though.
FormerRei@mobile
More importantly, did you lick your switch cartridge yet?
Kurisu
>>320134 I think there might be services that look that up for you
FormerRei@mobile
>>320136 The ones that actually work and don't cost money are just for mathematicians. I looked into it the other day.
>>320138 Well, there are probably services that will do it for money. I can't remember the one I found though. I think it was microsoft scholar or something. Which does many things, one of those things is checking you erdos number if you input the query correctly.
FormerRei@mobile
I almost just want to sleep until Pop Team Epic starts airing.
Kurisu
>>320140 why would you watch that? watamote was bad enough
>>320184 I spent 5 hours formatting that paper and finally got it submitted around 5:00. The formatting was so ridiculous that I reached my cognitive load like three hours into it.
Yuu
Oh, editing. That doesn't sound fun!
skKirara🎃
>>320187 It was so terrible that it actually physically exhausted me. My entire body hurts. But it's done now.
Oh, who do you think the biggest culprits are? The power creep didn't look as bad in this one as the last few banners.
Kirara🎃
>>320198 >Armored bow user >Armored tome user >Effective against magic dagger user
Yuu
>>320199 Oh, Jakob was armored too? Well that is a good units. unit I think Sakura will suffer from the same problem as all new dagger users, shitty ATK.
>>320200 Armored ranged units are crazy. It's bothersome. There aren't any armored bow users or armored tome users in the games.
Plus, it's ALL fates and awakening again. I told you.
ToN
do they have any skills worth sacrificing to my other pals
Kirara🎃
if you sacrifice these units you are probably playing the game incorrectly you can sacrifice sakura, maybe? her dagger is really good
ToN
I really hate power creep conceptually I dont mean it necessarily about this update in particular even But just fucking balance your game its not impossible
Yuu
Sakura may have the low atk problem so she may be one to feed to others. Nowi is the one I'm most interested in, I think. After her, Henry.
Koi-
>>320203 They might not have used bows but there were definitely ranged weapons that they could use. Javelin for lancers. Hand Axe as well. As far as creep goes, more armored units are good. I wish they gave one of them Goad though.
Kirara🎃
>>320208 yeah there were javelins and hand axe but never tome users or bow users
>>320207 i'm also going after nowi i'd rather have jakob than henry
Koi-
Well, we also didn't have wyvern mages, I don't think >>320212 ah, well, now I'm wrong I guess.
ToN
are you telling me nowi is a battlemage
ToN
>>320210 i am almosr certain camilla uses magic in fates
Kirara🎃
yeah there are wyvern and falcon mages in fates
Koi-
I would love Nowi and Henry
Yuu
>>320209 I just want Henry because I like the character. I actually have no place for him because Amelia is also green. I like Jakob too though, hmm
Kirara🎃
>Likes Henry as a character i wa shock
ToN
I'm not but thats becauss Ive known that forever
Yuu
>>320216 You don't like Henry? He's so fun. I probably would have married him if Chrom wasn't around.
Kirara🎃
>>320218 His only memorable quality is that he's an edgelord that loves to kill defenseless animals and stuff like that.
ToN
Lon'qu is pretty dreamy
Yuu
>>320219 He's nice to animals. He nurses a squirrel back to health. He does joke about killing it but he doesn't do it!
ToN
my secret eau de toilette
Kirara🎃
>>320221 I guess I just don't remember that. In fact, his first impression was so bad, that I probably threw him away immediately and never even used him.
ToN
I made him into a dark knight that was unstoppable
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
because he is batman
Yuu
He's not really edgy, he's just a slightly morbid flavor of eccentric.
Kirara🎃
He came off as an edgy little brat. So I never used him. If he's not edgy, I guess you have to invest in him to figure that out.
But when I have a cast of characters I like, and someone pops in with a bad first impression, I throw them away and never look back.
ToN
He's not really edgy yeah
ToN
do you think youll be busy wednesday, kirara
Yuu
Well Henry isn't so bad. Jakob is nice too. Butlers are as good as maids.
Kirara🎃
Jakob was the first person I romanced in Fates.
Kirara🎃
Mario is halfway downloaded now.
Yuu
I don't think I married anyone my first Conquest run through. That would probably make Azama the first one I married.
