#ren rambles
the theorizing around manatreed’s identity was a modern day equivalent to Sherlock’s TJLC conspiracy and his stream right now is 2022’s Apple Tree Yard in this essay I will
It has been quite some time since I’ve posted here.
School has kept me very busy and it’s even kept me from having the energy to really do anything related to my religion. I feel bad about it, but I know the Gods are forgiving about it.
But, I did take a huge step forward in my shadow work and healing. I’ve had a ring on my left ring finger for six years and it has some traumatic memories and feelings attached to it. I tried to cleanse it and mentally separate it from the association. I tried for many years but I couldn’t.
Thursday, I was encouraged by friends to finally let go of it. I’ve been wanting to replace it for a few months and finally, finally had the courage to get rid of it. I was at the beach, a place that used to be my healing and comfort place until after what happened, and I stepped into the water on the opposite coast of where I came into possession of the ring.
I took a deep breath, said my goodbye, and threw it as far as I could into the ocean. Immediately, a weight lifted from my chest and shoulders and I could’ve cried. My friends said that I looked lighter. Carefree.
I have a replacement coming. A little Raven with a garnet. A friend to replace the one I lost. I’ll miss my turtle ring, but it was only holding me down and keeping me stuck in the past. It was time to let it go.
In other news, I got a beautiful Lovers tapestry for my apartment and hung up some of my art around my altar that used to sit on it. A cypress and moss candle for Hades that he adores. I have a new necklace as well from a friend for my birthday back in January and it’s of Cerberus. I wear it often. And Kai, my Raven companion, has finally stopped audibly harassing me in class. He was testing my possible Clairaudience and I told him to knock it off. The little trickster.
FUCK A BREAKUP! YOU EVER WANTED TO REREAD A FIC, AND THE AUTHOR DEACTIVATED THEIR ACCOUNT.
Me vibing to songs that are in a language that I don’t speak a single word of:
*gets“Sawarasenai ✨ kimi wa shoujo na no ? Boku wa yarichin bicchi no osu dayo ”flashbacks*
been listening to a lot of instrumental music and when violins and cellos swell into a crescendo that makes my breath hitch and that spot nestled behind my solar plexus tingle and sear - like when you cup your hands around a mug of too-hot tea and it slightly stings yet it’s still pleasant, but that feeling is inside your chest…. that’s the good shit
there’s a debussy piano trio in g major that’s piano, violin, and cello and the key changes in it are fantastic and it’s just,,, fucking fantastic. it’s amazing. beautiful.
I’m pretty sure I found the one you meant (andantino con moto allegro?) and there were some Serious Flutters in my chest at those key changes, holy shit. thank you for recommending it to me! I love it

i really need to start keeping a doodle/comic diary or something because the exchanges I have with my family - especially in the kitchen - are too chaotic not to record
Thoughts on the recent Nintendo Direct.
Now that I have a bit of time, I’m just going to jot down my thoughts on the recent Nintendo Direct. These are just remarks on games that I had interest in so if anyting seems missing, that’s why.
- Super Mario Maker 2… Slopes and more!
- Super Smash Bros Ultimate version 3.0 update… can’t wait to play as Joker. *looks at the upcoming amiibo* Is Pokémon Trainer♀️ in the same boat as Robin♀️?
- Captain Toad Treasure Tracker… I don’t have the game so the bundle looks rather tempting.
- Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night… I’ve played Curse of the Moon on the 3DS so Ritual of the Night already has my interest.
- Yoshi’s Crafted World… downloaded the demo. I’ll have to play it later.
- Fire Emblem: Three Houses… I’m not exactly great at tactical RPGs
(and yet I play Fire Emblem Heroes)so this one is a tough “maybe” for me. Sothis… her ears and eyes are telling me possible manakete. Should I delve into this game, I’m leaning towards Black Eagles. It also looks like there’s going to be an unarmed/fist weapon skill based on the 22:40 timestamp of the direct where a fella named Caspar is using a set of Iron Gauntlets as weapons and the weapon icon is that of a fist. I don’t recall any of the previous Fire Emblem games where the human/beorc units are using a fist-based attack. I feel that the GIF below by @vilkalizer is now very appropriate.
- Deltarune… clever way of keeping things spoiler-free.
- Chocobo’s Mystery Dungeon Every Buddy… I’ve enjoyed the a good portion of the Pokémon subset of the Mystery Dungeon games. I hope the Chocobo’s subset of Mystery Dungeon games are just as good. I just need to remember the hunger system… which is a bit of a pain for me considering that I’m the type of person that likes to explore every single room when it comes to games in the dungeon crawler and roguelike genres.
- Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening… I’ve been playing the Virtual Console version on my 3DS recently so this probably makes a nice opportunity do a side-by-side comparison.
rb with your signature keysmash in the tags i’m curious
y’know what’s an excellent trope is when two characters are dating and one of them’s like “aww you like me?? that’s so embarrassing” (bonus points if the other character is like “we’re?? dating???”)
good stuff right there
also the alternate version of
A: “you like meeeeeeeeee- we’re dating and you like meeeeeee”
B: “we’re?? dating??? (w h a t ? ? ?)”
RSD check
- Your friends don’t secretly hate you
- You’re not a bad person for things you did and said months or years ago that you now recognize as bad
- You aren’t cringe for being excited about things
- You don’t talk too much
- If you feel sick from intrusive thoughts/rsd please sip on some water, get a blanket or plush to cuddle, put on some music or a video that makes you feel happy
- You are loved <3
