oh no, more threading with you. that would be very hard!!! (I mean, yes, especially since I am playing your game right now...)

MUCH BETTER THAN HE HAS BEEN IN AWHILE. He's made some real progress with putting CFUW game behind him-- like, he and Zuko really made up, not just had a firebending duel? So, he feels on much steadier ground... especially since now he has BROTHERLY BOND to tide him over into a more stable mindset. It also helps that I haven't really played him in any of the trauma games that have come up since then, as well.

How about Lightning? I hear you are having sibling issues...

She is...n-not well. She was making progress, but then, well-- Sea Witch and Hook game happen where she gave up all her happy memories. And mostly what that did was really undercut a lot of her own motivations. Itachi was pointing out to Serah that Lightning doesn't even remember the significance of her own name anymore -- that she chose "Lightning" as the name of the person she would be to protect Serah -- so she is...having a really hard time connecting to people, and definitely to forgiving herself for the ways she perceives and sees that she has failed her sister. She is kind of stuck in a loop where she's angry at herself and that anger makes serah sad, and then she's angry at herself for making serah sad and--

I am hoping the last sig neg she got will help with that-- because while it is another dose of "you failed Serah", it's also "you failed Serah because you were too angry to listen to her". So maybe that will motivate her to at least...start improving... or at least ask for a quest to get her lost memories back...which she hasn't even bothered to do yet >->;;

how does Mako feel about Suddenly Brother?

CONFUSED... And a little worry.

Mako's kind of set up to be angry at himself for a lot of the things he does-- some justified, some "why are you even worrying about that, you stupid boy," so his initial reaction to this was to be mad at himself for not connecting the dots. And then, when he thought about it, this completely changed the narrative he'd had for his life. Which, while not something he's really mad at Bolin for, he's pieced together enough to realize that his life was pretty terrible. And it's one thing to have that life for yourself, and not have to worry about others, it's a different thing entirely when that sig neg of parents being murdered legitimately affects more than just you. So he's just like... trying to figure out what his responsibilities are, how he should tell Bolin, and just being mad at himself for something that really isn't his fault.

But Mako's also good at picking up being a big brother, and he has all the information and skills he needs to do it, at least. Barring some sort of Aather craziness, this is the absolute lowest point that they could have on the BROTHERS scale. I expect it to improve from there? And then the only thing I can think of is Mako will go from being moderately okay at letting Bolin have his space, and respecting him as a capable, if irresponsible, fighter, to Mako morphing into THE OLDER BROTHER MONSTER.

Tsunami's latest challenges?

...That is the best icon.

Her latest challenge is, as always, Sasuke related!!! All her challenges are Sasuke related I swear gawd. But now she has like...layered and cascading Sasuke challenges. So like quick recap this has been #Sakuralife lately:
>> ~90 days of up and down roller coastering wrt Sasuke either being her friend or being her enemy or not caring about her at all, either here or in Aather.
>> Remembers somebody else telling her she loves Sasuke...awk...
>> deciding she's just kind of going to treat Sasuke like an acquaintance until she sorts out her feels for him because the constant back and forth is really painful
>> truth mistletoe! Truth-dumps her bucket of feels all over Sasuke so he kisses her to shut her up... and then she dumped more feelings on him and told him how much he hurts her sometimes but also how much she wants to be his friend.
>> has also been avoiding her memories because she got some really upsetting Sasuke ones, ended up telling Stealth she was worried all her memories would be about Sasuke... ended up getting a skill that was about Sasuke. Wonders why her life is Sasuke.
>> had Sasuke ask her to perform delicate eye surgery on his brother which is a pretty big deal to her because she knows how much Stealth means to Sasuke so it's like... Sasuke believes in her skills and also is trusting her with the health of his brother??

so basically she is now running around studying herself to death in preparation for delicate eye surgery that is not going to allow herself to fuck up in any way. She can't and she wont and augh augh.

How is Emil's love life '^'
