it's "higurashi: when they cry" and "umineko: when they cry" and now the newest is "ciconia: when they cry" but ciconia is on hiatus at the moment while ryukishi07 takes care of his mental health. there's also higanbana no saku yoru ni which is set in completely different universes
--(which is canonically how the relationship IS, it's just HET), would be really in character
and also beatrice is a trans woman canonically but that gets into MASSIVE spoiler territory for both the mystery and WHY beatrice exists at all. and yeah. beatrice wanting another trans girl to bond with on the island would make sense. so t4t beabato toxic yuri turning affirming--
but beatrice freeing him up to be a GIRL, like he'd probably desire to be in some routes, would genuinely help him. imo battler if he transitioned would still be a butch woman, she'd be wearing suits (just tailored women's 80s powersuits lol), and she'd still be an overemotional yet smart crybaby
but the relationship between battler and beatrice can only be described as "kinky miss tormenter" and "sad wet pathetic tormented guy". now, battler has already some trans aspects to him, such as not liking his birth name, "battler", which was chosen bc the family are westaboos.
so battler is basically the detective character. he's trying to prove that witches don't exist. he's trying to prove that these murders on the island where his family is gathering for a reunion to discuss the inheritance are 100 percent done by human hands (in the trick route, it CAN be done)
okay, so umineko is an episodic visual novel series written by ryukishi07, a former social worker, who wrote a series of episodic visual novels previously, called higurashi. there are two characters in this series named beatrice, who is the golden witch who is behind the mysteries, and battler.
i consider myself both an episcopalian now and a lot of our system considers ourselves panentheist regardless of whether each system member ids as christian or not (when it's not a christian fronting it's more "a holy light exists in everything") so...i'm not exactly sure what i believe
not like "murdered by the empire" part she's nowhere near leftist lol. but "when the world ends you won't know about it because jesus did not SAY when he was coming or how he'll take his followers to heaven" that stuff.
honestly as a christian who was raised southern baptist (aka the religion most associated with this freakish evangelical fucks minus some quibbles about charismatic shit present in evangelical spaces) that's what my mom's always told me about that
when will "The Crash, The Rapture, The Big One" happen? you're never going to hear of it. it's going to go like this: there is no dignity or joy of an explosive release, just an increasingly cataclysmic burn, thousands more murdered by empire in punctuated events, and life gets more difficult
underrated gudako fit
iranians surviving through the repression of the islamic republic and now the genocidal empire coming in to "liberate" by rendering tehran uninhabitable will always show so much more strength and bravery than the populace washington performs for
people who don't protest because "the police will shoot at us" wondering why the iranians aren't protesting when their own government that missile struck a school of girls is currently bombing and gassing a city of 10 million people
has bombing a populace from the outside ever spurred that populace to rise up against their own government or is that just a thing we pretend happens even though it never does
it's a retroactively justified excuse that looks good on paper to a populace that won't leave their homes if it's too chilly outside but somehow believe going outside into poisonous gas conjured by a country bombing a city to smithereens and indiscriminately killing civilians is viable
you should also tell her she's pretty about 101 times. the extra 1 is for when you say "yes really really really, i mean it. you're super pretty dummy" so she really gets it,,, then kiss her on the nose. girls love that.

happy women's day !!
what you should do tonight:
Screenshot from the video game Persona 4. In the halls of Yasogami High, the protagonist talks to a male student labeled "Stylish student". His dialogue window reads: "Hanging out with women, going on dates with them, that's fine. Killing them? Not so much."
happy international women's day
and it'll almost certainly happen yet again in the 2030s lol

if you're having a nice weekend please consider that it might be because you have the favor of the golden witch, beatrice
An article titled "The Rise of the Techno-Pastoral" by Lisa Peralta. The image that accompanies it depicts a gameboy whose screen shows a pixelated green field and trees, and its lead reads "When criticizing the present, we keep dreaming of the technology of the past. Is this logic sound?"
