I have no idea what bahamut lagoon is like, but I haven't been this emotional about a game since pokemon mystery dungeon: explorers... I cried when i played it and i don't usually cry over games

may i cheer you up with some fanart i just drew

Awesome fanart ^-^

As for Bahamut Lagoon, it's a tactical rpg by Square Soft for the SNES, from 1996; it was never officially released outside of Japan but fan translations in English that can be played on emulators have been made… It's a lot more conventional than Undertale of course but, for the time and given that this was made by Square Soft, it turned a lot of the usual rpg tropes on their head, and came up with a rather powerful fantasy story — and also it's probably one of the most beautiful games released on the SNES.


Also this is me in the future:

I had a pretty fun Halloween! I saw one other homestuck character, and he was a Dave. I thought I saw a god teir someone, but they were a goat. It was the horns, I tell you! Also, I though I heard a Gamzee but it was just some other clown with a horn.
I say vol, you say tron! Vol!

Pffftttt Harvester of Sorrow on the radio (I listen to Finnish radio channels at work and they can throw some totally random stuff at you). I don't even care about Metallica but I'm almost headbanging because nostalgia.

Looking scruffy today, and the rest of the month for No-Shave November, a version of Movember that bypasses finicky moustache trimming while likewise raising awareness of male health issues.  So I guess instead of a Mo-Bro, I'll be a Beard-Bud.   :D

Well, it's the end of the world here in Nottingham.
We've had a thick fog here for the past couple of days, and it's gotten so bad you can't see the end of the street from my front door any more. All the street lights have just become 'points to aim for' and the tree-lined footpath I walk down every night on my way home now feels genuinely creepy, with branches looming at you out of the mist and other pedestrians disappearing in and out of the fog.
This would be cool enough, but someone very nearby has clearly decided to get in on Bonfire Night a bit early and is letting off a lot of fireworks about a mile or two from my house. So now every few seconds there's a tremendous BANG and the entire northern half of the sky lights up red or blue or green - an effect made all the more spectacular by the fog. It genuinely feels a little bit apocalyptic!

If you're talking about Una on Bryggen that's a microbrewery, not a bar.

Maybe if you tip generously. It's not the kind of place I go to when I'm in Bergen. Too ... refined. And expensive.
