Also Limbus really had to do maintenance right as I wrapped up the Mirror Dungeon for the week

You can't even blame me for not reading the news, since it doesn't display properly for me (it's pulled all the way to the left and I can't adjust it back no matter how hard I try, same goes for all the summoning rates)

Okay, got through practice mode
Now for the actual thing :')

-Galaxian-

I think I checked out of this week on Wednesday lol. 
Also Limbus made me redo the boss battle. I'm not too mad about it because it wasn't that hard, but still, that's quite annoying. It's probably gonna turn out to be some kind of phobia.
Limbus is funny. Every update is like a gamble of how well it will run afterward. For instance, this update is ranking up the difficulty of running the game. The earlier one made it easier. It's like a fun lil lottery.
Btw for some reason I thought I was stuck on the bull battle, but no, no I wasn't, apparently I was past that. 
Going a lil delusional

I kinda find it funny how Rai is the one who wears grey and is clearly all about the grey of the world and human nature and stuff, but the forum-submitted characters before him are all greyer morally speaking. Like you have Hitan who will incinerate you if you push him to that level (good and evil don't really apply to him) and Xuqiao who will stand on the side of evil if there are people over there who rely on his protection. Also, you have forum!Galaxian who acts by a righteousness from another world, though he's kinda retconned (older him was GGaD!Galaxi but Iffier lol, he was losing it) 
I also have Kiaan now. And Nagesh, though he's more of a silver than a grey.
I really like grey

-Galaxian-

I am about to lose it from strawberries that look all plump and juicy but taste like a water worse than water
If white strawberries had a taste, then this would be it. 
Like y'know the bleach-infused strawberries from TikTok? I think these taste worse. /j

I checked out mentally of writing and stuff, but at least I can get some chores done. (Writing here is so much easier than writing actual essays/responses lol.)
Taking care of the kiddo has meant that I've reverted partially to toddler behaviours and also to speaking aloud or speaking very loudly in my mind. I'm ok with it as long as it doesn't get out of control. I mean, to begin with, I already talked to myself whenever I could (basically whenever people weren't around), though the Chinese still view that sort of behaviour unfavourably.  
Kids are so funny. The one I've been taking care of seems to like me, so she calls out for me before I arrive and after I leave, but right after I arrive, she goes whining to her parents when they ask her to play with me. Then when I actually have to leave she tries so hard to stall (refuses to clean up 'cause she knows I have to finish cleaning up before I can leave). She's so funny tbh. 
Anyways, her parents still want to work with me, which is good! The kid and I get along mostly, and I'm okay at communicating with her parents. Oh, and I could talk about this a lot more than I am choosing to. I made a lil journal of every day for myself, so that's kinda good as references. I usually am not able to keep a habit up, but I have a monthly journal for once, which is pretty cool. Hopefully I actually wrote down stuff that's useful for memory recall later. 

On another note, people who claim society ostracizes people with personality disorders probably need to meet people with some of those personality disorders. I am not saying that people with personality disorders do not deserve help or that they don't deserve to be treated as human beings--quite the opposite in fact, since that would benefit everybody. What I am saying is that my biological father does an annual habit of trying to figure out my/our location for morally dubious reasons, and I think I have the right to say that this fits-the-encyclopedia-definition-of-a-narcissist is not a very good person. Yes, he's trapped in his own lil hell of existence and I pity the fool for all the reasons behind why he is, plus being trapped by your brain is some psychosocial horror that extends beyond the topic at hand, but also I think I dislike him for a reason and deserve to.
Basically what I am trying to say is, I think some of them personality disorder-affected people be ostracizing the people around those affected a lot more than society itself does. Actually, I feel like parts of society instead enable those people to get more money and power (and other related things) but idk, I'm no sociologist.

And also as you may be able to guess, I am not just talking about a single person.

(SS rambling continued)

Though with some manga panels addressing the order of revivals, I'm wondering how the revival timetable even went. The groups were divided like this I think (for the Gold Saints, idk about the Silver Saints):

1) Shion, Camus, Shura
2) Deathmask & Aphrodite
3) Saga

So maybe Camus and Shura were in the same hell as Shion? Or else how would they know what he's up to? I can't see either of them agreeing to revive without seeing Shion do it right next to them (since Camus is...Camus and Shura redeemed himself before his death or whatever even in the manga).
So which hell would that be, anyways. 

(I know, I know, here we go again)

I randomly hit myself across the face yesterday (and today) just remembering the small nuances in the way the different Gold Saints performed Athena's Exclamation. Now, I might be misremembering other details, but I'm mostly remembering the way Saga, Shura, and Camus got into the stance the second time as if it was just a martial arts stance, because it was something they had to do with the only remaining time they had. During the actual attack, they're mostly silent (partially because Shaka took most of their 5 senses each [I think Camus and Saga are just unable to talk verbally], partially because they've gone through multiple battles at this point and taken a beating), only mirroring the yelling of their counterparts during the actual clash to try to gain the upper hand. Also remembering how Milo sometimes had his eyes closed as if trying to close off the situation, though Mu's side in general were acting off of fury/avenging Shaka's death and so seemed determined in a more angry/passionate sort of way, while Saga's side seemed more tired and grounded. If you look at it from a big picture view the entire situation is absolutely stupid, but I guess that's there as well--the fact that Mu's side is facing off against traitors of their own kind/rank, and determined to uphold the principles of a Gold Saint to the very end even if that means using the same banned technique and only being able to entrust the hope of winning this Holy War to the young warriors who have accomplished so much more than they have been able to. They're simultaneously honourable warriors and also just big hypocrites, since they're simultaneously protecting their goddess and avenging a friend, but both objectives could have been worked toward without making everything happen on such a large scale. 
Anyways, it's kinda Saga's fault. I don't blame him for pulling AE on Shaka because otherwise all three of them would be dead dead, but I feel sorta like he was hoping AE could intimidate Mu, Aiolia, and Milo into backing off somehow. What he forgot was that if they stood down, they'd have everything to lose, including the Holy War and Athena's safety. So of course they'd instead choose to do something as reckless as Saga's own side was doing.

See, it's the usual solution. Mass-scale destruction trumps all. It's dramatic as the narrative goes and it makes no sense tactically unless you warp it 5 times and the logic becomes a circle.

I think the most fun part of having a character is that you can "meet" their families in your head by conjuring the idea of them and decide whether or not you like them. It's like meeting a lot of in-laws, except you can tweak how bad they are (you don't tweak how good they are, if they're good then they're just good and they develop on their own). 
It's like a favorite character instinct meter, but instead "will I like my character's family" instinct meter.

I might be going insane, again.

-Galaxian-

There is also something hilarious about ND Alone even when I'm not like this. Bro defied a god's will (something Shun, a trained Saint, was able to only barely do) just to do heck all. Like yes LC him is cool too but I can't get over it. 

-Galaxian-

Btw idk if I mentioned it to you guys as a whole, but this is what I have to stare at as I boot up SSA, so of course I now have compounded issues.

(jk, I compound them myself. It's compounded daily if I'm lucky)

Btw look at these cuties lol

Edit: image doesn't work unless I edit the post and I can't even use the original link for some reason, so I spoiler tagged it lol

":0" (Mu is again the outlier, I think he's really just done with everything for sure. Dohko's like that 'cause he's 260+ years old and needs to keep his mouth closed to seem more mature. Mu aged like 200 years in a day lol)

Man the armour had some good airbrushing.

I realised I gave no elaboration whatsoever on why I disliked that orchestra teacher, so allow me to explain.
1) His class was right after lunch/recess. The classroom was at the end of the hallway, while my locker was at the end of the hallway at the very other side of the school building (and hard to open). Passing periods were 3 minutes, and we weren't allowed to get back into the building early to get our stuff.
As such, this meant I had 3 minutes to get to my locker, open the locker (sometimes it took like 5 tries), get my stuff out of my locker, and then run with everything to the orchestra classroom on the other side of the building. Also keep in mind that other kids were also rushing to their lockers and we were usually all crammed in the same place trying to access the lockers. And school policy said we couldn't carry our stuff with us between the lunch period. 
This usually meant that to get to his class, I was sprinting after eating food to try to get to it on time, and sometimes I would get there 5-10 seconds late. Except, getting to class late 3 times meant detention. He warned me, saying I was late to his class and shouldn't be running to it in the first place 'cause we weren't supposed to run in the hallways and all that. I explained the entire situation to him. He said that I could make up all the excuses I wanted, but a student needs to learn responsibility. So, guess who gave me my first and only ever detention. 
2) Remember how I needed to run to his class? Guess who reported me to the school nurse for body odor. (: (bro really said no sweating allowed)
3) When he was teaching the class to keep rhythm by tapping our feet, he said that an alternative could be to "shake your legs like a dog before it pees," and then he looked at me in the eye and said, "Galaxian, could you demonstrate?" I just stared back at him like .-. and it goes without saying that I did not demonstrate. 
4) Ignored my mom at conferences. There was no one else in the orchestra area (like parents and students) and he pretended both of us did not exist, which is good 'cause I already told my mom about this and so we pretended he didn't exist either. Then after he realised he wasn't shaming us, he just stared at us all creepily.
5) Told me I should give up learning violin because I "probably wouldn't end up accomplishing anything with it anyway." Bro, why were you a teacher?

Then he fell off a ladder and broke his bone and was off work for half a year. I pretended to be sympathetic.
This was one of those teachers who everyone else seemed to like. But again, to his credit, he was good at teaching fundamentals.

Arknights OST try not to be amazing challenge (I'm not even over the Babel event OST lol)

I'm trying to figure out how I wanna go about the event. I might try to get as far as I can with the gameplay stages while skipping the story so I can come back to it later. Gotta have some semblance of proper chronology with the main story after all

-Galaxian-
