DM leak from Sparkle☆Lynn, from the day before the set: "Hmmmm lemme think "Millia loves to jump out of pressure, so in the corner if you do like 2h S kabari thatll work a lot I imagine "S kabari also just works a lot in this mu "If she rolls, she has a few options but if you get in the habit of doing super on reaction it beats all the options "She loves to press jH so be prepared to azami from like IAD distance"

DM from Lex, from the day before the set: "you gotta block good "that's all i got"

And I couldn't have done it without the generous advice of my two Baiken mentors. 💕

Final game, final round, final hit~

I fondly recall feeling like I'd been through the wringer after watching Faye/bèa sets a year ago, so I'm elated that Aisha and I could put on a comparably distressing show. 😊

here's the card for tomorrow's xrd exhibitions! we'll see you tomorrow at 2pm EDT/8pm CEST!

Beginning to see the red stuff come out. It's such a relief.

Also just passed 100 hours, as it happens. ❤

One day, I'll have good habits; until then, I am a thief.

A Dingus post from the RRC Discord server: "youre not a real faust player if you dont wanna kiss him "thats facts"

Every time @gingeraleman7.bsky.social reposts art now I think of this and FGC nod. 😌

Whereas I pictured something even more metaphorical.

Thanks to everyone who cheered for me. I got to feel cool a couple times. 😊

That's me~ 😊

Two excerpted Discord messages: "hello! I'm already getting more into Rev2 and saw RRC mentioned in the newest pattheflip article so thought I'd swing by and see what's up" "I'm only here because I heard there was a melty tourney taking place." Then it's the "The illusion... of free choice" template, with the cow staring down two corridors leading to the same destination. The left one is labeled Rev 2; the right, French Bread. The destination is labeled with Lex's post commanding simply, "You will join rrc."

Ten newcomers just this morning. ❤

That's never happened before... ❤

Practicing using meter more~

Baiken makes an interesting noise when sent tumbling~

It was best games day on Discord again. This time I tried a slightly different approach~

Listed in order of heart-knowingness... Roughly. It's a difficult thing to measure... ❤

The silence was deafening. ❤

I just did it for the bit, but the bit required me to do the whole thing~ Please check the background carefully.

Always happy to help. 🤭

Hope I never get used to hearing Melty comms mention "blood heat."

When you've been bottlenecked by Gravity Suit for over three weeks in the twenty-two-person Hell Archipelago, but then Saffiya has it for you. ❤

Very funny case of area rando. I guess this kind of thing can happen~

It's like this for Aria, I feel.

First lobby game today. Guilty Gear Eggzard~

RE6's only real failure is in directing the player. Playing it as though it's 4 or 5, it comes off as a worse version of those. But if you use everything it offers—sprinting, diving, rolling, shooting from the floor, quick shots, parries, and so on—it reveals itself as a technician's playground. ❤

It's a Resident Evil series tier list. 1. "Perfect video game" — Resident Evil 4 (2005), Resident Evil (2002) 2. "Jumping on the bed" — Resident Evil 6, Resident Evil (1996), Resident Evil 2 (1998), Resident Evil 2 (2019), Resident Evil 4 (2023) 3. "Chris voice 'Good stuff'" — Resident Evil Revelations 2, Resident Evil 8, Resident Evil 7 4. "Uh oh" — Resident Evil CODE: Veronica, Resident Evil 3 (2020), Resident Evil 3 (1999) 5. "Only good aspect is the guy who's just Columbo" — Resident Evil Revelations If you're wondering where RE0 is: I didn't get into the series until well after 0, so it was easy to look back and decide just to skip that one. If you're wondering where RE5 is: Disqualified on grounds of basic decency. I'd love it if not for that one thing, but a time came when I could no longer ignore it. If you're wondering where GUN SURVIVOR 4: BIOHAZARD: HEROES NEVER DIE is: I respect you.

Too much going on to play RE9 right away, but I expect it'll be good. The series has been in a really good place ever since they came back swinging with 7. ❤

Fish in orange, blue, silver, and gold. Though they're only fish, they're in sort of a triumphant pose. ❤

Twitch subscriber badges for @junklion.bsky.social. 18x18 dots, I think just under 16 colours per fish. It was fun to figure out how to make a gallant-looking fish in that space. 😊

Come on, you raver, you seer of visions~ ❤

I've made a lot of new friends recently, so this may be of use. ❤
