i hate drawing that guy. i got 25 minutes for him today and accidentally reset the timer, so i had even more time but still didn't manage to draw him well and started shading after the timer ran out. his photos are always beautiful, it's frustrating to be unable to convey it in the sketch. and this is just some random person, idk how frustrated i will be if i try to draw a character or person i care about, lol - should do it anyway some day tho.

i wanted to do a 1.5 hour class before work, but due to some distractions and resetting the timer i had no time for the last sketch. not really satisfied and wanted to rage quit, took pauses during the last one even. i thought my little public practice diary was too negative due to me bitching so much despite having fun and was going to complain less, but not today it seems :')

idk when i will next have time to do 2 exercises in the same day, but when i do i want to draw some faces, big and small.

frustrating as it was, i am still definitely glad i keep up exercising daily. will see how long i can last

i wonder how long i will stick to my policy of using tumblr for fun light hearted things only with no arguments or "politics" (in quotation marks bc everything is politics really)

(i hope it's forever lol, conducting discourse about most things on social media rather than offline seems to be more bad than good)

i thought you mean the boss and naked snake for a minute lol

date with paz is the worst possible character for female date mission in pw in terms of having an enjoyable date but a good date partner in terms of the bigger narrative. elaboration below:

the best would be amanda, in my personal opinion. snake is clearly not much invested in courting anyone much, he still hasn't let go of the boss (and never truly will, in a way) and has other msf related stuff to worry about. and so is amanda - she would earn the recognition as comandante by the time of the mission and would be occupied thinking about running her own little army. the fact that they'd be on the same page about being not much interested in dating and much interested in commanding a military force and warfare in general could allow them to have a good time together.

cecile would be morally ambiguous too since she doesn't really have a choice in staying on the mother base. but at least she complemented snake and called him sexy over codec which is as much of female sexual attention as he gets in pw.

strangelove would not be a good date plot wise but even that would be more interesting. she is struggling to understand the boss and feels betrayed by her, same as snake. they could bond over the woman both of them loved deeply to the point of it affecting their entire lives. besides, strangelove did look for a hookup or relationship to get distracted from her "breakup" with the boss and possibly follow the 70s sci-fi trend of being very interested in procreation; for both of which she canonically chose huey. it wouldn't make much sense if she chose snake instead bc i think she picked a person she lowkey despised (as he did himself) on purpose and dating a guy who had a close relationship with the boss and made her jealous wouldn't exactly help to get distracted or try to forget about her. but still, at least she has an important thing in common with snake.

date with paz was unappealing to me to even try until i completed most of the missions and late game boredom of gajillion mech battles and curiosity and wanting to experience the entire game got to me (as well as a false hope that snake would be able to wear the bikini top if i get the swimming trunks too, which was a huge letdown lol but well, it is what it is). same as date with kaz, it's a trophy date for completing a significant part of the game. but depending on when you play it (right after unlocking or after completing more main missions) it has the appeal of either a date with a minor who is confused and in distress (tbh i wouldn't complain at all if it wasn't called a date and there would be other ways to finish it than get into love box with her) or a date with a spy who kind of hates you - which is negative amount of appeal for me personally.

sure, considering paz diaries one could say that she has a tsundere crush on snake, so for the sake of being optimistic let's keep that in mind. but does it affect the gameplay of the date mission? doesn't seem so to me tbh. mb i am just doing it wrong, but i had to make several attempts to get an s rank and it looked like this: "good girl" "good job" "i like you" "peace" "praising you some more" - "thank you snake" "thanks" "peace" "aww snake thx, also i will start following you after some wooing and jump a little in a cute way and tilt my head as you say more compliments about nothing in particular" and then they get into the box and paz says it's awkward. very understandable lol, awkward for me as well! at least i can play some nice music and she likes it.

i had kind of high expectations for this mission bc i have played date with kaz first. everything i could try got a positive response from him and revealed some delightful reactions: many comm lines, cqc, camera, questioning him - and even more - things like zooming in on his private parts or knocking him out and laying on top of him, things that i doubt i would find on my own. it's a shame you can't feed him but most of the things you can do get you positive and diverse responses. while paz dislikes or is neutral towards it seems everything except music and praise (she will, luckily, meow back, but won't like it, same as miller), and trying to cqc her is not only discouraged but results in snake touching her inappropriately which is an unexpected twist but not really a welcome one. i don't dislike paz as a character - quite the opposite, i liked the fight with her and was relieved (for a short while :') ) to see her in mgsv. byt her date is boring to me, i have even googled the ways to s-rank it in case i just do it wrong but it seems it just is what it is.

that being said, i think that date with paz isn't a bad thing in the context of the game in general. it reminds the player that snake and miller are freaks who can't behave around a minor, commits to the bit of "kid named peace" narrative (zadornov even got several play dates of hide and seek) and might be interpreted as illustration of snake having no place in romantic dates with cheerful young ladies and becoming a stranger to a joyous possible side of life that a date with a young cheerful woman might represent, which is well combined with him looking like shit and becoming more grumpy and tired and less silly and prone to tomfoolery compared to mgs3. so maybe while being boring and possibly inappropriate, date with paz mission might be more fitting into the narrative than a potentially more entertaining date with any other major female pw character.

my fav part of the mgs fandom is that we all collectively ignore the fact that boss possibly (and willingly) slept with a 16 year old at the ripe old age of 40

tried to copy kazuhira miller from references to learn to draw him for future shenanigans
