"if i was orpheus i would simply not turn around" yes you would. if you were orpheus and you loved eurydice, you would. to love someone is to turn around. to love someone is to look at them. whichever version of the myth — he hears her stumble, he can't hear her at all, he thinks he's been tricked — he turns around because he loves her. that's why it's a tragedy. because he loves her enough to save her. because he loves her so much he can't save her. because he will always, always turn around. "if i was orpheus i would simply —" you wouldn't be orpheus. you wouldn't be brave enough to walk into the underworld and save the person you love. be serious

wait epsilon simulating grif and simmons having tower of procreation sex is so funny. Dude what

they find out about epsilon’s mind palaces and simmons is like excuse me why the fuck did you make me and grif have sex and grif is like Yeah why would i procreate with SIMMONS. look at how narrow those hips are. look at his waifish and sickly complexion. you KNOW he’d die in childbirth and then where does that leave me? with some freak baby that may or may not be ginger and a lifelong guilt hanging over my shoulders because i wasn’t able to save him? because for the record i wouldn’t. i’d dump his body in a ditch in a heartbeat and i wouldn’t even feel bad about it. and simmons is like What the FUCK grif that is Not what i meant why are you TALKING about this. epsilon clarifies that actually hes run the calculations and there’s only a shockingly low chance of 63% that simmons dies in childbirth. Donut gets excited and reveals he’s always wanted to be a midwife because he doesn’t understand the ‘simulation’ aspect of this conversation and then when simmons clarifies that NO ONE’S PREGNANT he gets mad for getting his hopes up and demands he go “shove a turkey baster up there right now, mister!” simmons wants to die (and luckily if he gets pregnant there would be a 63% chance that he does!)

Fire Emblem Awakening is like. Someone has to kill the dragon. Someone has to kill the dragon. This is how the story goes, this is how every story goes. The evil dragon rises and the virtuous hero puts it down and this is how the world heals. Someone has to kill the dragon. But the knight won't do it, he loves the dragon too much, and the knight's daughter won't do it, she loves the dragon too much, someone has to kill the dragon, someone has to fix this world, but no one is willing to do it, no one is even willing to try, so what is there to do? What is the dragon to do? It has no choice but to do the deed itself.
