the <^> game | v. twenty-three

[boyfail]

i've been super obsessed with mystic messenger lately lol its kindof like tradition at this point to play one route a year or so and completely mess up my sleep schedule for 11 days ggggh i would say more but i wouldnt want to spoil anything for prospective new players (play mysme pls)

^ oh em gee i miss having poptarts so much lols theyre so good they were the only thing i actually liked to have for breakfast in high school and i also relate to empty boxes being in the pantry and stuff pff my brother sometimes leaves empty food boxes in there and i get so hyped to eat it and then i realize. ITS. EMPTY. sob sob...
> aaah im gonna be going to college sometime next year (idk if im gonna make it to the spring deadline ggg) and im kinda nervous but i cant wait to learn abt the stuff ive been interested in since i was like.... 10 haha (criminology)
v if you have spotify, tell me about ur spotify wrapped ^^ if not, whats your favorite song and why?

[shadowplay]

My Spotify wrapped was relatively unsurprising this year, top 0.05% of Depeche Mode fans for the third year in a row… nice. They‘ve been my fav band since I was 4 or 5.

^Seems like we’re doing the same thing next year, cool!
>Really hoping my piercings aren’t infected again
v Tell me about the oldest item you own

[chop top]

most disappointing wrapped ever, broke my four year streak of pork soda being in my top 5 somehow. also listened to an actual 1/5th of how much music i normally listen to. i entirely blame my job. my top song this year was "wolf in jesus skin" by polkadot cadaver with only 69 listens. the top artists this year made sense, pokadot cadaver, deerhunter (5th year lol), butthole surfers, creature feature, and buddy holly. really surprised no glass animals, i really just lost it this year, i am not ready to turn in my flag. i am just embarrassed with this one.

^ yo! that sounds great, i hope college goes well, even if you don't make the spring semester. glad it's something you enjoy, always makes it easier

i own dinosaur poop, if you mean oldest of all time ever. oldest within my lifetime? probably this raggy old dog plush that looked like my old dog i had at the time and named the very same thing. i still have him somewhere. i miss that raunchy little dog. it's a difficult question to ask someone who collects and soley own antiques & vintage items lol. everything i own is old.

^ huge depeche mode fan. respect. also same fears about a piercing, whoops.
> you know it's going to be a bad day when in the distance there is a great blaring of horns
v what is a song or object that holds great significance to you? elaborate on it if you wish :^)

[somemorpheus]

vacillate by oliver buckland is my most listened-to song ever. it's an electronic-ish, ragtime-ish, bizarre song that absolutely mesmerizes my brain with complex percussive elements and catchy beep-boops. go give it a listen!

^ finds comfort in owning antique items. i hope you find your well-loved dog plush.
> i'm hoping to find the courage to hop in a discord call with my online friends, but i get really insecure about my own ability to be interesting (even when my friends are quick to remind me that i'm good company)
v what is your favorite constellation?

[megapolis]

ursa major and minor! i love those little bears...

^ cool account theming! idk how it looks on light mode, but the pastel green text on dark mode is really soothing to me - plus, it matches ur sig and avatar!! calls can be difficult, but you got this. :-)
> procrastinating so hard rn!!! :pensive: portfolio season is the worst... kinda dreading the fact that i'll inevitably be stretched thin but that's for future me to deal with <3
v give me your favourite media recommendation!

[marciplier]

ok ill give a few! ive been really enjoying pokemon violet and id recommend it to anyone who likes pokemon.
i also really enjoy the albums burn pygmallion from the scary jokes and montero from lil nas x. id recommend those to anyone who hasnt heard them.

^ im giving you strength for this time! procrastination sucks but i also deal with it too :(
> breeding up some more fuecoco eggs. i got two shiny sprigatitos from 110 eggs so im hoping my luck didnt end with the kitties. i still have fuecoco and quaxly to hatch haha :')
v if you could meet any person who has ever existed, or any fictional characters, who would you meet? what do you want to do with them?

[boyfail]

mmmm i would want to meet a LOT of fictional characters but ill just chose one to talk about ... since ur into pokemon too id say i would want to meet red, the protag from the first game ^^ mainly just because im like in love with him and have been attached to him since i was idk 8? but i think it would be nice to just hang with him esp because he would like pokemon as much as i do :D

^ gasp.. i love the scary jokes hello? i have never met anyone who also liked them before lol also??!?!? ur shiny luck is absolutely nutty ive never hatched a shiny before ^^; its always been just soft resets and sweet scent group shinies and also one fishing shiny lol
> thinking of finally binging shameless (mainly just because ian gallagher is giving me sooo much gender envy as of late) so i hope its good!!
v tell me your favorite quote/describe your favorite scene in media and tell me why ^^

[emiistar]

hmm, this is a nice question! i want to say my favorite scene in media is probably the end of the movie lost in translation - it's just so subtle, so beautiful, so well shot, so mysterious yet comforting, idk i love that movie. makes me want to visit japan
^ omg shameless! i've always meant to get into it bc it was filmed kinda near me but i never have... i know alot of ppl love it though, i hope you do too!
> so excited for christmas :D trying to figure out what i want... think i'm adding a lip mask and some new pajamas to the list
v what are you most excited for this holiday season? anything in particular?

[tulpen]

i'm only excited for christmas break tbh, everyone around is pretty annoying around the holiday season, i just want it over with. no more coming up to me and screeching christmas carols please! respect my personal space!!

^ i'm glad you're excited and enjoying it!!
> i think halloween is better than christmas. yeah, i said it!!! i like spooky, horror movies, costumes and not having too many songs going around. it's not too much for me. i get anxious when there's too much, *cough cough* christmas time *cough cough*. i don't hate it, it's just- a lot.
v what's your opinion on christmas? is it too much for you? too little?

[argoen]

I'm fond of Christmas, although I definitely prefer Halloween. I appreciate the cozy energy the holidays bring because of how dark it gets during the winter, the sun sets at like 4 pm I need those twinkly lights for my mental health haha. Plus I get to spend time with my friends just doing dorky things! We're going to a parade this week and doing a gift swap and gingerbread night a little later in the week. :)
^ I didn't realize people still went caroling? I can totally see why this time is anxiety-inducing though. At least there's a break!
> Just spent the last hour and a half reading gibberish, I hope I retained enough to write some sort of reflection on it. I also have to record myself for 2 different assignments which is always a little nerve-racking.
v What's something you might not enjoy but are weirdly good at?
