Lopes playing Magikarp Jump: ☆ Names every Magikarp, but about 5 seconds of thought go into the names.  Sometimes they’re themed but most of them time they’re randomly generated in its head based on a 2-3 letter alphabet system, or based on a random keyboard squiggle and picking the favourite auto-correct. ☆ Favourite marking is Pink Orca.  Would buy a plushie of one in a heartbeat. ☆ Puts constant thought into future purchases or makes spreadsheets to organize them and then purchases as currency’s available.  Treats diamonds and coins the same in this manner. ☆ Literally always picks the ‘risky’ option because the potential loss is easily fixed by a couple berries and also because Magikarp being swooped up is hilarious.  Only exceptions are if Magikarp is just about to retire naturally or a new marking might yet be unlocked. ☆ Is on Expert League 3 and has beaten it many times, max ranks and all; but because Lopes is really self-driven, it honestly hasn’t even noticed a big difference between this and former play. ☆ Still uses the Mountain Stream theme, and all decorations are grass-types and colour coordinated: Whimsicott, Exeggutor, Shaymin, Suduwoodo, and Sunflora. ☆ Calls the game ‘a positive feedback loop that’s been disguised as a game and perfectly polished for human consumption’ and enjoys it half-ironically anyway. ☆ “Jeepers” omg /laughs forever/

I didn’t realize that I was apparently so good at giving hugs that, upon hugging someone after requesting to do so, they literally exclaimed ‘oh my god you’re really good at this’ Though I do spend like.  Half of my living hours at home hugging my partners.  I guess it makes sense.
