#36 hours

Welcome to the Syndicate Room…

Zooms and detail shots under cut!

This is mostly just a 'I got your letter & I will reply but brain is not doing the word thing so jsyk I am not ignoring you!' note. XD

But also--this was gonna wait till I wrote the letter, but-

!!! You started playing Hades!!! I require your thoughts!! What you like, what you hate, how far you've gotten, your favorite/least favorite characters -- *everything.*

I started playing it again & I forgot how much I love the game. Artemis, Eurydice, & Demeter are definitely my faves & I still can't stand Than lol. & the art!!! It's so !!!!!! (I am nowhere near the 'completed' mark but I am so psyched for the second game already, omg)

Okay I have not slept in like 36 hours & this got long, whoops ... I'm gonna make myself go to bed now. XP

<3 <3 <3 okay good night. 😴😴

Slowly bud! Hi! Hello!

Take your time with the letter, I've also been really out of it lately, I get it.

Yep! I got it around a week ago, I think... Like a day(?) before sending you the letter. Hadn't even started it yet, so I didn't mention it.

BUT IT'S SO GOOD!

The art is great! The gameplay is fantastic. The music is godlike! I've only reached Hades (the bossfight) once, and I only have around 20 runs, so I am far from having a fully formed opinion.

Having said that... Artemis is by far my favourite. I always loved her in the myths. I wanted to join her followers, even before I realized I was trans. I love her so much in this game, and have given her the most gifts. Eurydice is my second fav as well! I always stay at her room for a few minutes, just listening to her song. Her "hair" is also amazing. Looks a bit like broccoli, I want to eat it. :P

Some of my other fav characters are Aphrodite (she's a mess), Chaos (they are cool looking), Nyx (best mom), Cerberus (best boi) and also Meg is slowly growing on me.

Most of the others I'm neutral about. (Demeter and Than fall in this category for me, like, they're cool, but I don't really care for them as strong as I do for the aforementioned (although I've only met Demeter in one run so far))

Zeus can fuck right off tho. Athena is giving me weird vibes too, which I didn't expect. Poseidon seems to be alright, which I also didn't expect, but still a bit wary of him. Hades can choke. I'd also add Theseus here, but the dude is a complete joke, so I don't take him seriously.

Weapon wise, my fav is by far the Bow, and I have already upgraded it once (the Zag, crit upgrade). I also like the Fists, although I've only done a single run with them.

Overall, one of the best games I've played. My only regret is that I didn't get it earlier. Really exited for the 2nd game as well. Melinoë (I hate, hate, hate the anglicization of her name) looks cool as hell.

Have a good sleep!

Okay, first do they have names yet? lol No worries if not.

Second, can you tell me about their first reaction to each other? What are their first impressions of each other? Third: do they admit they get together to their friends who's place it as soon as it happens? or do they wait knowing they were set up?

I LOVE YOU ❤️

I am still juggling with names - rn I am at Sophie/Sofia Perez for her, but he is so hard to name 🙈 I am thinking maybe Shawn? I am really bad with names 😂

They are both surprised to say the least. They had both been offered an empty apartment for the weekend, so suddenly being face to face with each other will do that^^. She is probably more mortified than him, seeing that she was about to hop in the jacuzzi and definitively not expecting spectators. He is mostly stunned, because he just walked in on the most beautiful woman he has ever seen 🤗

Them (and I) are torn on wether they will tell their friends or not, because on the one hand it would be hilarious for them pretend nothing came of it and then a few weeks later turn up at the well deserved "Sorry we tried to set you up even though you repeatedly told us not to" dinner together, but on the other hand... There's probably some sort of etiquette that demands you tell your friends that they might want to change the water in their jacuzzi 😇

heyo!! first off, power in my neighborhood is back to normal and i can finally use my laptop

SECOND i spent the last few days going over and adjusting my notes for both hunger ‘verse and dha kar’ta, and realised i fudged the details of the holo from lom (in chapters 5, 6, 8 and 9) and made a plot hole that i’m not sure if people would notice, but i notice and my obsessive compulsive brain refuses to move on without fixing it 🥲

so i’ve done just that! the final scenes in chapters 5, 6, and 8 are now lightly rewritten, as well as a portion of obi-wan’s holocall with dooku in the last section of chapter 9. i’ve bolded all the changed lines, and i do recommend going back and reading the new versions! i think it’s a minor enough retcon, but might confuse you later so
