[unpacking] "why are you so precious about your Prismacolors," I whisper, trying to find a place for the tin
skerple
like. I Get It. but we wouldn't have to put your prismas up on the top shelf if you would just let me SLIDE THEM IN VERTICALLY NEXT TO YOUR PENS I KNOW THERE IS ROOM THERE I CAN SEE IT
skerple
also I am consumed with lust for the bathroom in the house with the D&D roommates. holy shit let ME have a bathroom with a washer in it
Master Chieve
If you have a bathroom with a dryer in it you can warm up your towel while you take a shower
skerple
yeah
Hamlet 3.3.87
it also makes sense from a plumbing and ventilation and flooring perspective
Hamlet 3.3.87
truly bonkers that we DONT do that standard
skerple
it would streamline things so much
skerple
toss your dirty clothes into the wash while you toss your dirty self into the shower
103 FOOLS
not to mention save so many spoons on laundry. seriously, laundry is the most emotionally draining chore for me and 75% of it is because our washer is in the basement
skerple
https://images.plurk.com/5AxIgmnNHxNX5imjibwORr.png anyway here's a screenshot of my complaint
skerple
I REALLY FEEL LIKE I SHOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO JUST SLIDE THE PRISMAS IN ON THE SIDE THERE
skerple
ah god okay. okay. it's time for the Boyfriend Apartment.
vast energies
the apartment that gave me irl anxiety
skerple
https://images.plurk.com/1DMF9RT0jQzLzKabwDkrck.png I hate him instantly
skerple
I'm despairing at how little room there is for her things and how many boxes I still have to unpack
vast energies
yea.
vast energies
i started just shoving all the boyfriend's shit around in different drawers
vast energies
like guess what your underwear and socks and ties all share one drawer now bitch. im putting my bras in there
Juroku Cha
ngl i am super precious with my prismacolors, but that's only bc i still have the original sanford ones of ridic quality so i've been dragon hoarding them
skerple
gawd. I knew about the diploma under the bed but the diploma under the bed hurts
skerple
takes a photo of the bedroom with a dreary filter on it

vast energies
it's a shame cuz like
skerple
10/10 environmental storytelling, made me feel wretched
vast energies
the apartment is pretty cool.
skerple
yeah it's a neat lil apartment.
skerple
--lmao oh the cookie tin next to the sewing machine. that's cute.
skerple
god the music for moving back in with the parents is doing some WORK
skerple
putting the boyfriend photo on the corkboard with a pin through his face...
skerple
I like that she appears to have taken his incense burner tho. good for her.
skerple

skerple
oh!! she got her bard mini painted!!
vast energies
to me the biggest plot hole in unpacking is the fact that shedon't have a cat. she should
vast energies
i look at the stuff in her life i think this is a woman who should have a cat
skerple
it's true, she definitely seems like someone who should have a cat
skerple
though she does appear to enjoy traveling and that might be rough for kitty
skerple
I'm very happy that Bluey followed her when she left home the second time
skerple
alright, midway through moving into the cute lil brick place seems like a good place to break for the night
103 FOOLS
the boyfriend's apartment really was just. I didn't have the anxiety response but I was definitely like "...these two people are completely different. how is this going to fare?"
103 FOOLS
cut to moving back into childhood bedroom
"...yup."
103 FOOLS
also I think my two biggest reactions to items changing over time were the mini being painted, and the toothbrush cup getting cracked
103 FOOLS
also, I love the song on the radio in the return to the childhood bedroom. it really nails the post-breakup playlist aesthetic
skerple
yeah the mood is SO much
skerple
I love that she keeps the mini and the d20 and the d20 shirt even though there's no other evidence that she particularly vibes with tabletop
skerple
because even if that's not one of her Interests, she clearly had a good time with those roommates
skerple
also ngl, I was happy to see she kept the ukulele and even got a proper stand for it - I was worried she was only learning it because of the boyfriend, but it seems like it's something she actually enjoys
103 FOOLS
there is definitely a pattern of passion for music in the later half of the game
103 FOOLS
probably why she played a bard
skerple
probably also the only reason the relationship with boyfriend worked at ALL for ANY length of time
skerple
https://images.plurk.com/jA3QBbUQRmHEEnDkhS4r0.png what the fuck is this and why does it belong nowhere
skerple
OH OKAY IT IS A DVD PLAYER
skerple
IT JUST WOULDN'T ACCEPT IT IF THE ROTATION WAS WRONG
skerple
hehehe time to move the girlfriend in
skerple
I watched Quinn doing this level for I think Extra Life and it's so delightful
skerple
from the one tiny hint in the previous level that maybe our girl is not straight (the one single pair of rainbow undies), to the realization that the new partner moving in is in fact another woman
skerple
and also that she is very cool
skerple
she's a fan of things! she has interests! interests that overlap with the MC's! she is very stylish without having to live in a perfectly curated magazine spread like city boyfriend!
103 FOOLS
in the last house I honestly had a hard time remembering which of their clothes were whose because they both have such cute styles XD
103 FOOLS
like all the other stuff I could easily identify but clothes, it all kind of jumbled together
skerple
yeah - like I think the girlfriend/wife has a style that's kind of rockabilly with a touch of goth, slightly more "transgressive" than MC's style which runs to a slightly old-fashioned femme when not just graphic tees+jeans
skerple
but indeed, both styles are VERY cute and have a fair bit of overlap
skerple
oh god new house is HUGE
103 FOOLS
new house makes me cry ;w;
skerple
there's so much house in this house!!
skerple
and the moment you see the icon for the nursery ;w;
103 FOOLS
NURSERY
103 FOOLS
QUEER LADIES STARING A FAMILY
skerple
when you're moving the girlfriend in it's such a delightful slow discovery of "aw dang, this girl's so cool and I really feel the vibes here, maybe she'll be the one" and then you start unpacking new house and it's like "aw DANG I guess she WAS the one!"
skerple
so happy for these cute queer ladies
vast energies
shoulda had a cat tho-
skerple
LMAO
skerple
look. maybe the kid will want a cat and they'll get one and realize they clearly needed one all along.
103 FOOLS
Unpacking 'we got a cat' DLC where the cat gets in your way while you unpack and you're not that mad about it
vast energies
halfway through emptying a box, the cat jumps into the box and you have to empty a different one
skerple
perfect
skerple
omg I just unpacked the wrist brace
skerple
oh my god she's a CHILDREN'S BOOK ILLUSTRATOR
skerple
the artstyle on these multiple copies of the same children's book matches hers! these are her artist copies!
skerple
for one second I was like "oh, maybe this should go to the nursery" and then I pulled out aNOTHER ONE
skerple
AAAAA THE PROMOTIONAL POSTER FOR IT
skerple
our girl's an award-winning artist ;w;
103 FOOLS
Man, now I wanna play again
skerple
passing the piggie on to the baby....
skerple
wait. wait.
skerple
https://images.plurk.com/1tWYdFrgqLejYvJNza7k6f.png
skerple
one of those photos, I'm pretty sure, is the photo with the roommates
skerple
and it sure looks like those two on the left are our ladies
skerple
is the wife one of the old roomies??
103 FOOLS
That's entirely possible!
skerple
god that makes the mini getting painted EXTRA cute
103 FOOLS
but yeah, the new pig for the nursery got me sobbing
skerple
not even a new pig it's the SAME PIG
skerple
WITH THE SAME MENDED BELLY
103 FOOLS
is it? :-o I thought it was new cause the old one was so beat up
103 FOOLS
now I REALLY need to play again, did she get him cleaned up?
skerple
yeah!!
skerple
iirc he's mended by the time she moves into the brick house
103 FOOLS
either way, lots of crying was had
skerple
they traveled again!! new souvenir!!
skerple
wife got into yoga
skerple
FINISHED
skerple
I'm all misty-eyed and smiling
skerple
this game is like a cozy blanket
skerple
still a bunch of stickers not unlocked...
skerple
I think I'll just sit with that cozy ending for a while before I start fucking around
skerple
I didn't expect to actually see the ladies at the end
103 FOOLS
YEAH
103 FOOLS
holding the baby ;w;
skerple
https://images.plurk.com/4PtJ4bTnCrYBTFLKTJDNNB.png ;u;
103 FOOLS
Just played through again and yeah I see it now, piggie got cleaned up for the baby ;w;
Comic
I think the prismas wouldn't go there because of the lip on the prisma case means it wouldn't sit straight, so it'd just lean on the pens and knock everything over
skerple
I guess that DOES make sense
