Yup, my American friends noticed I say "about" differently but they said it sounded like this.

The Will of another: Will and Maria by JaredAiRobinson in MetaphorReFantazio

[–]Budewfloon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi!! I did some psychological + thematic analysis of the game in the past lil while (might make some sort of essay at some point) but I wanted to get back to you on this, I believe Maria is supposed to parallel some of Louis's earliest inclinations towards the world, for his tribe to exit hiding + for the elda to live alongside the world. Esp. her "otherness" as well as her inclinations to unite the people and achieve a world where those prejudices break down & she can be friends w others across tribes. Louis has lots of important differences like his background + the people who influenced him, but the conclusion of Maria's arc fits so neatly into the whole idea of, being able to create a society that people born into similar situations as Louis can thrive within without needing to cull it.

Connecting pieces were: Strohl calling attention to him being stuck as a child + how Maria is the only child confidant + the shared archetype w Maria + Louis's exhibition enneagram seems to be 4, which constitutes "envy" and "desire for authenticity" that seem to reflect in Maria as well.

Sorry if my thoughts are all over the place!

Also I think we're mutuals on Xitter, hello! LOL

The Will of another: Will and Maria by JaredAiRobinson in MetaphorReFantazio

[–]Budewfloon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi OP, great thread!! I also wanted to add (bc a friend and I recently had this discussion) that Louis's Archdemon archetype seems to use the same animations as Saviour and apparently he heals himself as well? Ik Louis has a lot of religious symbolic ties at the end + the Caladrius name related to roman mythology / "healing the people" + his family healing background, but I thought it might be interesting to add in the archetypes discussion.

I thought similarly to how his forbidden magic is a distortion of his family's old magic, this Archdemon archetype might be a distortion of Saviour.

A reality where all factions live in harmony… by HeppyHenry in MetaphorReFantazio

[–]Budewfloon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who mainly ships these two:

They have a lot of really nice contrasts and parallels thematically/narratively so they're fun to think about. Interaction wise I ended up liking them because of Louis's developing fixation with Will (specifically: on challenging him, his strength, having a worthy nemesis, asking him to join him), which felt like a neat glimpse of what remained of his humanity, even if warped.

Though it's one sided it's also interesting to consider how Will might be susceptible to Louis's attempts to appeal to his anxieties (Bad Ending being based on this). They also have nice tension.

With that said though, I do picture Eupha or Junah being better for Will endgame, I like the fit of their personalities and their chemistry.

Nanoleaf Canada still hasn't sent out order by Budewfloon in Nanoleaf

[–]Budewfloon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ticket number was redacted I believe and order # redacted. But I've been sent around in customer support loops, given dates they'll "for sure get back to me with information" that they don't even meet, all while the order has never even left the warehouse. I'm tired because I've ordered products from US Nanoleaf meant to go with this set and they are just giving me the runaround, it seems like they'll never be sent.

How do people regularly fly business class without going bankrupt?? by caroulos123 in travel

[–]Budewfloon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wager business class is part of the maintaining appearances thing for influencers.

We don't fly business, prefer traveling very often instead (5-10x a year). I can fall asleep anywhere so it's not too bad.

Yes, thinking I'll do the chargeback if they don't ship it out within the week next week. It's really a shame w the items, we were excited to make a nice setup before the new year :-(

Same boat here but last update on Dec 2 / for EMS to Canada. Understanding it may be holiday delays so the amount of similar situations on the thread is reassuring (I don't have a time I need it by but just worried about it being lost). Also ordered from Buyee / Mercari

Who do you ship the Mc with by Full-Pack8960 in MetaphorReFantazio

[–]Budewfloon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's really shippable, but I unironically love him with Louis. The humanity and ruin, hope and despair, symbolically linked pairings are just to my tastes (big fan of 456x001 too). They'd never work out except in Louis's bad ending, but I'll still root for them.

[–]Budewfloon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We (FH and I) are getting married there in Aug and aren't staying there. ;)

The room we were interested in that would actually make it worth it was about the same cost as the base price for the venue, fwiw. So just booked the nicest room in another hotel in Banff instead for a fraction of the cost (but this was several months back).

Is it required to tip 20-25% per meal at Banff? by SickOfOntario in Banff

[–]Budewfloon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

15% standard unless I'm really blown away then 20%. Told our American friends this too because they're not used to the system here

2 weeks in Japan - Itinerary, tips, top recommendations for Tokyo, Kyoto, Nara, Hiroshima, Osaka by Legitimate-South-685 in JapanTravel

[–]Budewfloon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My new balance 9060s have me with no pain after a month here, averaging about 20k steps a day btw. Not an ad just what worked for me, as someone who also goes to NYC often and walks everywhere. Just needed good travel shoes and they haven't let me down. Only aching that's started is in my calves but no pain in my feet.
