being self aware is the worst thing ever. can’t even be pissed at my dad properly without having a disco elysium ass internal monologue about it
I like this witch cat finding game, very cute. However I think it would be improved if it was instead about a detective with a severe substance addiction who is supposed to somehow solve a murder
Miss Oldstein: I'm sorry Anna, but I haven't seen your little Mr. Baxter since you brought him into my coffee shop last week.
Empathy (easy - success): She's tenser than normal. Maybe she had an extra cup of coffee. Maybe her knit sweater isn't as warm as she thought it would be. Or maybe...
Half-Light (challenging - success): You know why. This old crone thinks she can get the best of you. Her smile says it all. She thinks you're too much of a coward to confront her. And she knows you have no evidence.
Pain Threshold (trivial - success): Beat it out of her. You'll only get the truth with bloody knuckles, and you can hit her harder than she can take it. If Mr Bixby had lost you, he would have fought twice as many people to find you again.
straight people are so fascinating even when they aren't actively trying to be homophobic. I had a class a few years ago where one assignment was to summarize some eighth century arabic poetry about going out for drinks with the lads before indulging in some gay sex and like half the class came in and said "I'm sorry idk what was happening in this one, they mention having sex with a servant but they also say the servant's a man? where'd the woman come from? I'm so confused." and a few days ago in a shakespeare class I made a comment about how cleopatra and octavius caesar are kind of parallel characters in possessively bartering for mark antony's attention and one of my classmates responded as though I'd been talking about octavia and not caesar, despite the fact that I said "caesar" and "him" multiple times while describing the actions he specifically took. fully incapable of comprehending of anything that's even a little bit gay.
