FUN FACT!!!!!! Ββ is not pronounced /b/ in (Modern) Greek! It's actually /v/. also Ηη is /i/. so beta (βήτα in greek) is pronounced vita in greek. picture related

if you want to make a b sound, you gotta do μπ (mp).

fun!

Modding is really fun

oh greek does this too

άνδρας (ándras) means both man and husband, and γυναίκα (gynéka) means both woman and wife.

φίλος/η (fílos/i) means both friend and boy/girlfriend.

φιλία (filía, or should i say philía) means friendship, and yet there's the whole -phile suffix

wack tbh

broke: malewife

woke: werewife

did you know? the word "woman" etymologically comes from "wifeman"

neutral hero: he buys stuff at aldi's, then kills eggman, but omega tagged along

semi-hero dark: too many distractions caused him to lose his shopping list, so he doesn't know what to buy. he stays in aldi's for the rest of his life trying to remember what he needed to get.

waking up:

waking up, breaking out! 💥💥 this is what it's like at Aldi's

rip it up, tear it down! 💥💥 this is what it means to be free

cart sounds, a distant roll behind you

as you try to clear your head.

you start to look and answers find you

your inner purpose lies ahead.

waking up, breaking out! 💥💥 this is what it's like at Aldi's

rip it up, tear it down! 💥💥 this is what it means to be free

waking up, breaking out! 💥💥 this is what it's like at Aldi's

rip it up, tear it down! 💥💥 this is what it means to be free

one step to calm the storm inside you

unlock the trolley with your coin.

not another list, no more confusion.

no more buying tenderloins.

it seems it's just out of reach

the ones who come first always get their way

but i think they should know

i'm coming for their cart!

waking up, breaking out! 💥💥 this is what it's like at Aldi's

rip it up, tear it down! 💥💥 this is what it means to be free

Never Turn Back:

it's been a long rough road and im finally here

move an inch forward, feels like a year

everything i feel seems so unreal

is it true? is it true?

i move one aisle left and two aisles right

got some weight in my cart, certainly ain't light

up, down, all around, dont know quite what to do

to get through

but im on my way (on my way, on my way, on my way)

here i am (here i am)

made it to the end of the queue

never had a chance while im around

no! no! no, no, no, no!

and now ill never come back (ill never come back)

ill never go that way

no matter where life tries to send me

i turn the other way!

now and then, my head starts to spin

but they ran out of aspirin! (no! no!)

from this moment on, i am moving on

and ill never come back again!

i guess im doing alright and im on my way

facing every moment day by day

take a chance, slip on by, got no time to answer why

head straight, i head straight.

and what will i become if i dont come back?

give myself a reason for this and that

i can learn, no u-turn, got to stay right here

where im at, where im at!

but im on my way (on my way, on my way, on my way)

here i am (here i am)

made it to the end of the queue

never had a chance while im around

no! no! (no, no, no, no)

and now ill never come back (ill never come back)

ill never go that way

no matter where life tries to send me

i turn the other way!

now and then, my head starts to spin

but they ran out of aspirin! (no! no!)

from this moment on, i am moving on

and ill never come back, no!

ill, ill, ill never come back!

you know how to write a limerick?

i honestly think that they're sick

not even that hard

to write some cool bars

cant think of a rhyme, oh shit frick

but do you know how to write a sonnet?

what about iambic pentameter?

if you dont know, then you should get on it.

dont be such an absolute amateur.

too bad sonnets are just so fucking long

it is really such a pain in the ass

and too many things can go really wrong

to be honest i think i might just pass

four stanzas with each line having a rhyme

the last stanza is cut a little short.

it really just takes up all of my time

i think i will need some mental support.

but as long as i can spit some good bars

my poems can be as good as the stars

had a thought again:

again, spoilers for PMD: Gates to Infinity, and cw: death

When the player left the pmd world, everyone was supposed to forget they even existed. That's how human departures from the pmd world seem to work, at least with how Hydreigon explained it. Everyone in Paradise remembering is an exception.

So:

The previous humans probably made companions before they died, companions who can't even remember them.

is the memory wiping thing only a PMD World → Human World thing? CAUSE IF NOT, those humans' friends and families ALSO would've forgotten about them when they disappeared (maybe until they came back dead? Maybe their memories would come back?)

What happens to the evidence of their existence? (e.g. photos, literally anything they themselves made, etc.) Does it stay? Do people just wake up one day and find that their nightstand has a framed photo of them with some kid that resembles them that they've never seen in their life?

What about when that human inevitably comes back dead? If they never get their memories back, how would they feel if that person who suddenly showed up in their photos was right in front of them, crushed to death? And if they do get their memories back, that's heartbreaking. A dead person shows up, and you suddenly remember the time you spent with them, and the time you spent mourning their loss all at once.

thinking about pmd gti again

cw: death, also spoilers for Gates to Infinity

so like, it's explicitly stated that the protagonist wasn't the only human brought to the PMD world by Hydreigon. There were others. Countless humans who were "defeated" by Kyurem and "sent back to the human world."

Given how Kyurem was beating the absolute shit out of the protagonist, only sparing their life because the partner stepped in...

I think it's more than safe to assume Kyurem killed those humans.

Those yellow lights floating in the sky are dead bodies. Dead bodies being sent back to the human world.

Countless people in the human world have disappeared, only to later turn up dead, and you were about to become the next victim. And if Kyurem did finish you off? There would be even more victims.

Countless people from the human world were killed, it wouldn't be too surprising if those deaths made international news. A person disappears, and some time later, they come back stomped to death.

Imagine the protagonist goes back to the human world to snack on some ice cream or something, and while scrolling through their phone, they find some people talking about it online.

How horrifying must it feel to know that you were just one step (sorry) away from facing the same fate? I wouldn't be surprised if the protagonist had nightmares of Kyurem beating the shit out of them every night.

But it's not just Kyurem's fault. Hydreigon kept bringing more and more humans to die. Sacrificing who-knows-how-many people from a completely different world just to try to save his own. Honestly surprised the protagonist doesn't have any hatred towards him (or maybe they're really good at hiding it).

might be good material for an angst fanfic tho
