I too enjoy watching speedruns. I find it interesting to see all the tech and strategies they use to shave time. I'd probably enjoy speedrunning myself if 1. I liked to play games for longer than 20-minute sessions and 2. if I was willing to put in the time investment into learning how to speedrun the game. It's why I enjoy speedrunning individual levels/sections over entire games

Dude, I know right, I dunno how they have the patience xD usually watching them do the run just once seems like that'd already need a lot of patience and emotional control (how frustrating it must be to have to quit runs over and over again lol, and to not judge oneself harshly for screw-ups), not to mention most of the time it probably takes doing the run over and over again oof
I guess if you speedrun an entire game section by section, if you piece it together it becomes the entire game xD maybe that's not how it works though
If you ever record a partial speedrun, I think people here would be interested in it tbh :eyes:

What do you call it when you like a piece of music too much
I really really like a theme from Plants vs. Zombies lol

I dunno if I've talked about it but I take care of a poinsettia. I call it a tree because I have no idea what it is in Chinese and am far too lazy to Bing search it
"Eyyyy time to water my tree," I say whenever I water it, and idk I do it 'cause my mom always does a scoff-laugh thing
The thing about it is that it's been sprouting new flowers and new buds on every single one of its branches, to the point where it's June and I can't actually trim it. At all. Lol. It acts like it's still Christmas and honestly idc, I love it. I love unconventionality.
But I realized I forgot to turn it lol stupid me
This thing is gonna grow to an unmanageable size xD
I guess I have like 4 months to trim it lol, and tbh I could care less about when it's in "full bloom" or anything like that, so even if I can't trim it then, as long as it's healthy and thriving, that's really good for me.

I didn't say this, sorry, but I was so afraid of posting the rant and either screwing up my own mood again or screwing up someone else's mood that I didn't post it. I'll just keep it at heart, but the general gist was that I haven't been so triggered in a long time, and added on to the fact that I was going off of ice cream for lunch, had just gotten the vaccine, and also had to hold in my feelings for like a third of a day, it just wasn't a really pleasant experience.
But I do have happy things to talk about. Give me a second to type them out

One, while Mom and I went outside, we saw...the birds whose nests had been trashed by stupid repainters are back! And they're building their nest again, in the same place, right outside the door!! When we went outside, the two of them skittered around the branches while hopping/flying around and chirping at us. I cried tears of joy and so did my mom xD. You can't tell me animals aren't intelligent. I know for a fact they wouldn't re-nest if they thought we were the ones who destroyed their earlier nest. Anyways they're so cute lol xD (I ship them xD)

Two, I was outside sitting under a tree (and at least 50 bugs just decided to...die on my sketchbook pages, with even more falling on it with me having to escort them off with my pencil), and there was this tiny bird xDDDDDD who just decided to hop on over and chill next to me for like a minute. He/she was right next to my shoe xD and I was looking at him/her like "Bruh what if I wasn't nice" and he/she looked up, looked back, and really did not give a heck xD
I'm still worried if he/she will ever do that to less well-intentioned(?) people but the birdie was so small and cuteeeeee xDDDD he/she had two siblings and I'm pretty sure he/she was with his/her dad and xD his/her dad was so loud lol. I'm pretty sure I heard his mate too but I can't be sure.
At one point all three little birds and the dad were all singing at the same time in a chorus and xD

Birds, especially little birds and bird couples, are just so cute xD
Aww I'm sure the bird chorus sounded adorable :3

GalaxianExplosion · June 15, 2021 03:03:51

I have waited 2 hours to be able to post images

That's the dad! (If he's actually a male bird lol)

Daddy Bird with his child besides him. I really hope they actually are of the same species or else I'm embarrassing myself a lot atm lol. If they aren't actually the same species, laugh on your own and then pretend I said the "Daddy Bird" is the babysitter xDDDD

Daddy Bord (yes, I said Bord. idk why I'm like these lol) and the little guy again xD

Sorry guys, I suck at photography lol, and also I couldn't see what I was really aiming the camera towards so yeah. Hopefully this is nice on some level though xD

Cute birds. Very cute birds. Very important.

GalaxianExplosion · June 16, 2021 14:50:23

I need to redo the Craft Essences on my Support List. I have better ones by now, and since the ones I already had were pretty good I'm just saying this to flex my luck probably xD
I can't switch Asclepius on rn though. He's too low-level. I'll keep Caster Gil there for now (though tbh I feel like Lanling Wang is superior in terms of support as well as attitude ) until I can get him there. Once he gets there, he'll probably get Formalcraft as the Craft Essence. That, or Divine Banquet. I am not sure which Servant to put on Divine Banquet for oof, so that's why I said "Maybe Divine Banquet."
Lanling Wang is actually gonna get the CE with the 8% NP gain per turn because I've found that works well on him :3
I might screenshot the Support list later lol. Like, later later. 12 hours later, later. Just for feedback and stuff.

GalaxianExplosion · June 17, 2021 13:45:52

I did both of Kiyohime's Rank Up Quests, so now she has her third skill and her first skill leveled up :3

And then I did Osakabehime's Interlude
I took 2 Kiyohimes (I had to take at least one), Nezha, Kingprotea, Mash, and Asclepius.
Somehow the first Kiyohime got crit to death within the first turn so thank goodness for me already using her defensive skill (which also spreads fire). My Kiyohime also nearly got crit to death (in the same turn,,, turn 1) so I had to use a Command Spell to restore her HP (oof) because I am not spreading fire without the fire from her NP at least once.
I used it and then she got crit to death rip.
The rest of the battle was just...trying to use Buster cards whenever possible, using Arts whenever that wasn't possible, and using Class affinity whenever possible given those two conditions. Most of the battle was Nezha hitting with her Buster cards despite no affinity with Kingprotea (who had affinity). I learned that even Kingprotea's NP isn't worth stacking up to use (despite her being equipped with Black Grail and also having growth on her), so I used it twice (the second time so that I could chain with Nezha's NP). By the end I was getting really anxious that I'd have to redo the Interlude again (because Kingprotea had just died, Mash was at like 1,000 health, Nezha was at like 3,000) but a 1,500 damage burn got Osakabehime and it was overkill lol. Thank you Nezha
Anyways now Osakabehime can be crit support

I also realized that Demonic Bodhisattva is a good CE to use in farming, especially on Casters like Paracelsus (whose NP is usually not that impressive), so (:

GalaxianExplosion · June 17, 2021 15:15:53

Okay but even though I almost got annoyed at Osakabehime (for not doing the "I wanna stay home!" thing in battles, you know how useful a 90%+ damage cut would be, Osakabehime?) for nearly making me fail the Interlude (for the second time xD), she really is a mood
Sometimes you just wanna be alone when you have company, and sometimes (I can't really relate to this one though) you want company when you're alone. Humans are weird like that.
And sometimes you just don't want to tell others to do things, like leaving you alone, out of fears of offending them.
Most of all I relate to kinda being a jerk when you're with writing inspiration and someone comes in to bother you lol.
I'm glad she has a "Do Not Bother" sign now, and ig I can always visit her (and read manga,,, you know how scarily accurate this is xD) so that's nice.
Changgong will always have his through-the-door convos with her xD I friendship them

-Galaxian-

SpecterTheGreat · June 17, 2021 15:34:00

Clearing up hard quests is really satisfying, isn't it? Thank you for sharing hehe. This is probably just because I also play the game but I love reading through your accounts of the battles xD.
Congrats on the upgrades btw! I'll take Osakabehime as support to check her out again once I get the chance.

GalaxianExplosion · June 17, 2021 15:47:28

Thank you. I can't take your Servants on farming quests usually (I mean, like, Ember farming lol), but I did take Proto Cu with me for one of the parts of a rank up quest, and I'll try to take your Servants more so you get the 2x friend points xD.
(Lancer...did not die actually surprisingly xD he kept getting targeted for some reason though lol.)

-Galaxian-

SpecterTheGreat · June 17, 2021 15:51:01

Yeah don't worry, I know there's better picks for ember farming lol.
I'll try to give you more friend points during this campaign too xD a great opportunity indeed.

GalaxianExplosion · June 17, 2021 16:05:30

I have two Berserkers on Support list who also have Kscope, with one having a limit-broken Kscope (meaning NP is at 100% right off the bat) and it's awesome xD
There's also a NP 2 Arjuna Alter with a Kscope too
Tell you what, once you get Kscope, please put it on your Berserker so I can use her instead xD
And should I put Kscope on Kiyohime? Or do you prefer I keep it on Altera?

-Galaxian-

SpecterTheGreat · June 17, 2021 16:12:15

Altera's useful for non-Archer quests while Kiyohime has an advantage for all farming quests, so maybe it would be better to put Kscope on her? Tbh I suggest your Limited Zero Over on Altera since her Buster cards can be really great.
My Berserker is single-target but we'll see. If I ever get a wonderful Kaleidoscope I'll consider it xD.
