Thanks for the responses. I appreciate seeing them. I'll try to update in as best of a manner I can manage. Which I am not going to proceed to demonstrate. But before I go crazy here, I did want to repeat that I appreciate the understanding, and that I'll try to sort out my stuff before I'm able to return in "full." So that's that.

Part 2/3: I'll roll for Himiko and Saitou when their banner drops/when I feel like it. Please wish me luck. I have "connections" to both of them because I really like female leaders/people who history might've tried to erase, and for Saitou, well, he's Saitou. I enjoy seeing a guy with the same name as a character from an otome game, who lowkey looks psychopathic and is good with sword. He has almost Kiaane-like hair lol, must roll.
Oh and I guess part 2.5/3, I'm reading Haroun and the Sea of Stories at the moment and I just can't shake off the feeling of Haroun reminding me of Martin. They're pretty different but for some reason I keep tying them together

Part 3/3 (excuse the screaming):
THEY FOUND THE BASTARD. (: (and didn't tell me so I had to go through the process of finding out myself lol)
Of course, from legal research, the bastard'll have to pay like less than 500 dollars at most and probably spend about 2 months in prison at most. If they don't get on probation instead. Since, uh, we'll leave it at that actually. But to be honest, I wasn't expecting the investigation to continue at all, so this is sufficient for me.
I kinda feel bad 'cause I guessed the demographics of the person down to a nail, which obviously means I have biases/stereotypes in my mind, but honestly, I don't care. I think I'm a'okay as long as I usually am an okay person to others and don't judge them like that.
I'll try to make this the last on this topic for a long time. Again, I recognize how lucky we were that no one in the hit cars were actually in those cars, so no one was hurt/injured. But...let's just say that for me, I think the conclusion is that just being thankful for the barest minimum isn't enough. Maybe so for material belongings, but not for stuff like this, with wider implications.
I'll leave on that unlight note, I guess! I'm gonna go respond to some threads with my horrible post quality and then vanish back to the void. :D

Why do people say I look like an adult and say that I look scary but also say "That's definitely a lie" and call me sus when I say I'm fine and am genuinely trying to be fine

Other stuff aside, I absolutely adore Yamataikoku's map OST, and also Genshin Impact's apparently getting an anime from Ufotable or something? Nice.
I also got spooked by Marie lol the effects of grailing Salieri,,,

Grailed Mozart Murdery Man to level 90 because I have more than enough embers
As promised, I will eventually grail Sieg to level 90 as well (and Bedivere)
I don't really know how to feel about whom I choose to grail but I feel like there is definitely some sort of pattern there

This is a vague LB4 spoiler, vague enough that I don't consider it warranted to tag it, so consider yourself warned
Found out Bishamonten is basically Nezha's Japanese father, and coupled with Kagetora being Bishamounten's avatar...
...it is a crime for them to not have dialogue about each other.
Or maybe Nezha just heckin' avoids Kagetora? I have no idea, but I think there should be something that hints at her knowing who Kagetora is. Maybe dialogue from the time she first sees Kagetora or something. Everyone else sees Kagetora as being inhumane and stuff, but Nezha just gets horrible dad vibes.

I'm also pretty bad at detailing feelings on characters, but I did wanna mention that I think I have a weird soft spot for Nobukatsu. F/GO's "interpretation" of his character as well as some connections I think I have to him probably make it that way.
His voice actor is amazing for him, by the way. I don't want to ever use his NP (kinda like Arash's Stella), but I've watched it a lot of times, and his scream has never fails to make me feel shivers down my spine. It feels like it encapsulates his character and the premise behind him so perfectly. He just turns to ashes and scatters into the wind with a bloody background all around him.
And I don't think his character is that appealing to me, either. He's rather simple (which isn't the problem; I think I rather like simplistic characters). He also needs therapy (also not a problem; tbh this is not turning out to be a good paragraph). But also, you know, I'm inclined to sympathize with characters who have immense loyalty and issues.
Does this sound familiar? It should, 'cause even I immediately realized that his black hair and red eyes was unintentionally similar to a certain someone, also with immense loyalty and issues. Both of them need therapy. Anyways, I dunno. I can't adequately describe it. I just feel like there's something about him that I'm really interested in, and hopefully it's not something too iffy. 'Cause he definitely has morality issues.

By the way, Galaxian and Nobukatsu is also another F/GO hypothetical friendship I've cooked up by instinct, just two guys with somewhat similar premises and appearances who might not even get along but who need to go to therapy. Right now.

More vague LB4 spoilers
My add-on there is that I can definitely see Nezha and Kagetora having a link through their craziness, though the part where this (unfortunately? fortunately?) falls off is how canonical Nezha as a Berserker acts. I've always imagined them to have acted bat(crap) crazy when they were just resurrected, but her persona in the Lostbelt focused more on her regret (due to her being summoned with a sense of what happened after), so I'm unsure if in the Fate verse, they canonically matched my interpretations more
But see, Kagetora's craziness focuses on her disconnect from humanity as a god of war, and Nezha's craziness would definitely be much more grounded in humanity, so maybe it wouldn't work in the first place.

I keep dreaming variations of the same dream? I get what my brain is trying to tell me, but I seriously cannot get past what it's trying to convey. It's really annoying too because it's not like I don't lucid dream for this dream as well. I guess my emotions are more tampered down in the process but that just means I can wake up with them amplified, which doesn't help productivity much.

Oh, also, anecdote time I guess
A week or so ago, my mom and I were walking outside due to errands and stuff. We were in the part of the city (suburbs, really) that's shabbier than even where we live. It was kind of raining and we didn't have an umbrella, but it wasn't too bad.
Anyways, we were trying to cross the road, but 15 cars (I counted) consecutively drove past us without yielding. They saw us, too. They were giving us Looks (idk how else to describe them) as they drove past. Mind you, pretty sure we had the right of way, and also this was a crosswalk with the pedestrian light on. So, yeah.
I love how they're contributing to the Make Galaxian Even More Determined to Go Out of State campaign. But seriously, I think drivers' willingness to abide the law has geographic correlations here. It's so weird.

(Event spoilers kind of, but mostly just Nobunaga/Nobukatsu lore)
Nobunaga's mom: (*calls hell too good for Nobunaga because Nobu was ordering her brother to death for betraying herself a second time*)
Cao Pi, who tried to find an excuse to kill off his younger brother (same mother, same father) for basically no reason other than fear of being usurped and only didn't because the other improvised a poem within 10 steps about the two of them being peas in a pod: (*nervous sweating*)

Watched a few videos with police chasing people trying to evade them and having to execute PIT maneuvers at the end as well as police just having to deal with stuff in general
I have deepened my appreciation for the stuff they have to do. Just watching the video was making me impatient.
Anyways, as usual, Galaxian is not fit for that career field lol.

I feel like it's the most wacky thing to watch those Idiots in Cars videos and see a road you know (because you thought "Hey this looks familiar" and stopped the video to look at the street sign)

Oh yeah, another wacky thing is that this week, all of a sudden, random people started asking me for advice and dumping stuff on me
I honestly didn't think I'd need to dole out relationship advice in high school since I've been online but life is full of surprises it seems
Anyhow, it's funny because I retested the Myer-Briggs test for a class, and I remember the descriptions being like "INFJs are often asked for advice" even in the past, where I mostly just laughed it off.
Though I do have to say that my ability to second-guess my decisions and panic over them is definitely INFJ-y lol. It's very pleasant for sure.

have you seen the police chase with Lancer's theme put over it
Offline
I barely know that there's someone named Lancer outside of the Fate verse, so I think it's safe to say that I have not
I have seen memes involving Undertale and cars though, so I guess that's not really a logical correlation lol

POV: It's one month after your family's car got wrecked by an idiot driving "recklessly" in the middle of the night, and now you see another three cars, only a few feet ahead of where it happened, in a mess of debris from what seems suspiciously like a familiar situation. So you just stare at the scene blankly as you watch your mom lowkey get a panic attack
I currently feel like our life is one of those jokes in those very long comedy shows but you know what? It's fine. And you know why? I wrote (well, drafted really) an essay that I've been holding off for months, so I had a good basis to support myself
Unfortunately I still don't have restraint, so consider: What if an existing god in a monotheistic religion were actually just this super socially awkward entity who tries to get everything that he can done but constantly disappoints people and genuinely feels horrible/panics when his nonbelievers insult him for what he's unable to do?
I'm gonna stick with that interpretation instead of the "our life might be a bad joke" thing, yeah.

I saw Dongfang Yuechu's actor in a picture and accidentally thought he was kissing a glock
This is also much funnier than whatever it was supposed to be. So hilarious, in fact, that I don't even know what the picture actually was for. It's Dongfang Yuechu kissing a glock now, I've decided.

I realize discussions are a lot less fun now that everyone knows a little about politics and it's just sad
Like right now we're basically debating if 27 million people are worth an effort to change
If I get roasted by someone it'll essentially be my fault for actually replying to someone with the opposite claim lol

Also went from not knowing how to write (note: not what to write, I know what to write lol) to going over the word limit for an essay within the timeframe of two days

On a more positive note (love how I feel the need to say this), I'm practicing saying Spanish more, and the general thing is I need to practice conjugations and vocabulary obviously
But I managed to carry a conversation for like an hour! It was tiring for sure but then again my listening ability in any language is pretty bad
I count it as a success! Now to keep doing this for the rest of the school year,,, haha,,,

Honestly I wish I was you because it's so much easier to shorten/summarize than not have barely a thing, like me atm on one of my essays TwT

Okay so obviously I am not someone who should be giving advice of any sort xD, and also writing is different for everyone
But definitely brainstorm a lot. Imagine how a part of the essay might sound like your head, and get excited about it. And coming from someone who got asked to elaborate on some more negative aspects of their past and kinda just froze up, I'd definitely advise trying to make everything sound more positive genuinely. Try to reflect on important components of your life and genuinely think about how they make you better rather than depressed/traumatized/etc. lol

I guess this is sorta personal but for me, I'd been thinking on elaborating on my impressions towards ("relationship with" but there is no relationship) my biological father as an additional piece of information. But I've decided to scratch that. I don't actually remember much about him now, since I forcefully forgot a bunch of stuff, and every time I try talking about him, it's either vague stuff that no one could pay attention to or extremely passive-aggressive rant-style writing, which I don't want.
Like y'know, I try not to even make you guys read that sort of stuff, not to mention an admissions' officer.
In the end, I think that not saying actually anything speaks for itself. It might be a lil vague, but it's just that unimportant to me, and anyways the alternative would be worse.
I'm only mentioning this 'cause of what I said in the prior post there. I personally feel like there are some points that might paint a broader picture of who someone is, but if someone can't convey it properly, then it's probably better to leave it out. Such sensitive personal info is probably better just for friends and family to know, anyways.
