the point of art is not to be great but to make it transparently obvious that there is something wrong with you
AAA 2023 | 3RACHA acceptance speech
The Darkness of Eternity (破滅への使者, lit. "The Envoy to Destruction")
From the soundtrack of Final Fantasy IX, composed by Nobuo Uematsu. Uematsu composed the music for all preceding Final Fantasy titles solo, with IX being his last exclusive score in the series. "The Darkness of Eternity" is the theme of the main antagonist, a prideful character who ultimately has a breakdown upon recognizing his own mortality and despairs over the lack of meaning in his life.
Extra fun facts! During Yuzuru's 6-minute warmup prior to this program, the two pieces of music that played were:
- "ASGORE" (from Undertale) – plays during the battle with the assumed "final boss," a kind soul burdened by duty. He famously forces you to fight regardless of your willingness to do so.
- "Not Alone" (from Final Fantasy IX) – plays during an event sequence in which the protagonist struggles with the darkness hidden within his identity and pushes his friends away in distress, but is instead brought out of his despair by their unwavering support.

A 2pm appointment can take all day when you're autistic

love writing. writing is awesome. it’s a shame that it involves writing though
Dalton Day, from Flood-Letting
[transcript: Dinosaurs Smelled Magnolias
I am climbing a magnolia tree & you are telling me that magnolia trees existed before bees did which means that dinosaurs smelled magnolias & that maybe that was the last scent a dinosaur smelled before it all went bad & dark & bad & when I am safely in the tree you put your hands together in the shape of a bowl or a magnolia & that is where I would like to sleep & so I do & so I do.
end transcript.]
My enjoyment of writing, my productivity, and the quality of my work improved tenfold when I started embracing slumps and taking them as an opportunity to read everything I could get my hands on, watch lots of films and shows, go to the theatre, play games, hang out with friends, visit new places, and generally absorb life and marinate my brain in the art of storytelling.
Take from that what you will.
