And another thing-

If we accept that the original DR not only glossed over Junko's actual talent, but the situation brought about by Jin Kirigiri himself

Then isn't it just a wee bit odd that we're supposed to just, take the V3 situation on the face without question of its reliability?

Let me see if I can put this another way...

In Undertale, there's a certain character who is written as two very different things simultaneously. The duplicitous nature of this writing (in that particular case, both 'a character in a world' and 'metatextual stand-in' at the same time) is what causes there to be a lot of confusion - and variance - in peoples' interpretation of them

While not the same nature of duplicity of course, it's just to offer a little perspective- this is at least the extreme kind of 'perception split' I'm trying to get at genuinely being written into V3. Not just for Ouma, but the entire game, which makes a lot of events canonically contestable right from the very beginning

If it wasn't enough that the game began with an unreliable narrator, we even have a change of narrators, with the latter one having been a part of the first murder's setup, at times outside of our POV entirely. And there is even later evidence obscured in a room as per the narrative itself (Kiibo's upgrades!) as well as a piece of evidence visible to us that was obviously made for show (whiteboard with photographs on!) so there's a good chance our narrator is also missing more things that are relevant to the situation, because it wasn't an isolated incident that you could blame on the writing having hiccups, but an undeniable part of how things unfolded...

This is where I'm not understanding where the line is drawn, between things you can differ on and things that are just... reality. Because how do you explain this whole situation if it's not duplicitous writing?

Yesterday, I was helping my friends sell art in the park, when a couple of girls came up to us and asked (immediately regretting it) “is this the transfem picnic?……..” to which we got to respond “no this is the transmasc yard sale.” We then proceeded to have 15-20+ beautiful women swarm our stand of 4 creatures. Life is beautiful.

When a “funny” dude likes you and anytime he sees you anywhere he will be like “yoooo wassup it’s Jelissa!” (Or whatever) like “omg Miranda is here whaaaat” for literally no reason why do they do that

They are more likely to do this the more meek and shy they perceive you too. They are less likely to do this if they think you’re loud and confident. Idk what it is it’s not even necessarily bad or annoying it’s just like why.

This is a VERY sweet take and I hope it’s sometimes true

Okay I thought this behavior was annoying before but now it’s actually quite endearing thank you extroverts who want introverts to feel included.

There was a stoner I liked very much when I was playing age of Conan some ten or more years ago. He would roll up into the vent, yell my name and rip a fat one on mic before vanishing again. Always made me feel special. It was like a dog that would greet you by barking as loud as possible and wagging his tail so hard it leaves a dent in the wall when your car rolls up. Everyone was luke warm to cold on him but he was my fucking buddy and I loved him because he made me feel wanted which I sure as shit wasn’t getting at home!!

Eventually I made the decision to start emulating behaviors that made me feel happy and started doing that in other places. To this day my whole discord chants the nickname of whomever joins the call, like a pack of seagulls who just locked eyes on a delicious spare French fry. There’s nothing quite as amazing as walking into a room and hearing a chorus of loved ones drawing out your name like they were going to sweep you off your feet if they could, slash like a pack of feral dogs ready to bowl you the fuck over.

I've reblogged this before but fuck does this last story really make it
