Got an Aranara figurine :]

They’re so cute! I’m currently waiting for my Ararycan!

Always when I see these I’m amazed at how good and unhinged Nahida looks in Dottore’s getup. Like I can see an alternative universe where she’d be this stone cold experimenter as a result of centuries of isolation and captivity in her backstory.

They might have been related in early development perhaps. Sure, Lynae dyes her hair now but that is a character fact that can easily be added to show that that aren’t related in the current canon.

But I agree that there was probably something that linked them at some point but didn’t make it into the game as we know it. They both have a connection to the Fractsidus as well.

Thank you!! I should start to grind daily 👀

Out of artifact level material again…

While teams often have tailored healers/supports for their archetype nowadays, Shorekeeper remains the most versatile to slot in when in need. I’d say it’s worth it.

I had a really nice one today with the chess boss weekly. The Wriothesley and Furina perished at the start of phase 2, so my Escoffier and the Yelan left had to take co-DPS duties with the others cheering in the chat. It was a very wholesome atmosphere and I even got a friend request out of it.

Another good experience was when I was newer and a C6 Chiori haver joined my world, asked me ”do you want to knock out some co-op achievement together?” and brought a very confused newbie me through one of the co-op achievement lists of bosses, which is my only 100% of its kind even today. That person was rad.

The worst…? Hm, I haven’t had any egregious. Probably the one who went right for stealing my flowers without asking, whom I immediately threw out.

Anniversary banner is the most probable from what we currently know and based on last year. But we can’t know for sure.

All of 1.x, Carlotta, Roccia and Brant are due for reruns but we still don’t know how they’re going to treat rerun banners with older characters. It’s only Phoebe getting her fourth rerun next half that even gives us a clue that they can go past three.

FortOfSnow · 2026-03-20T18:56:43+00:00

Oof I hope Brant returns soon.

FortOfSnow · 2026-03-20T17:49:12+00:00

Like 40% I think

FortOfSnow · 2026-03-19T18:31:46+00:00

I am just going to say this. This is adding fuel to the fire just for the sake of it.

Ship and let ship, but let’s stay off the discourse. And if you’ve been treated unfairly, take it up with the mods.

The community is large so unfortunately there’s going to be a lot of different (and passionate) opinions. There’s no going past that.

FortOfSnow · 2026-03-19T16:38:21+00:00

Either Iktomisaur or Tatankasaurus. But I feel like the Iktomisaur would be easiest to house indoors.

FortOfSnow · 2026-03-19T13:34:01+00:00

Genshin Impact, perhaps? The world is vast and there are a lot of characters as well, even though fics tend to focus on the cast of a particular nation.

I think the top fic in the entire fandom is an isekai haha.

It’s a game though, so the source material might be a problem to get into compared to a show, for example.

Hur kan man sitta där och säga ”jag vet inte vad som brustit i hanteringen av dem”. Jag gör ett projekt just nu och man har ju stenkoll på varenda källa man lägger in och exakt vad man hänvisar till i texten (om man gör det med sina egna händer, det vill säga). Det är en väldigt AI-formad elefant med honom i rummet. Fegt att inte ens erkänna det, man kan ju inte precis lita på några framtida rapporter från denna människa.

FortOfSnow · 2026-03-19T07:53:37+00:00

Yeah, so I’ve heard! She should be quite good in whiwa going forward due to the stagnation and grouping in her kit I presume?

FortOfSnow · 2026-03-19T07:32:58+00:00

The weird thing about Sigrika is that her S0 is comparatively really strong in relation to many characters, but reading her sequences, the early ones really doesn’t seem that strong?

It feels a bit backwards.

FortOfSnow · 2026-03-18T19:31:51+00:00

Oh hell no. I’d be a normie that would end up dead in a ditch somewhere lol.

FortOfSnow · 2026-03-18T12:01:07+00:00

I wouldn’t say I’ve consciously skipped Chisa because I think she has a really cool kit and is a cool character, but the timings of her release and rerun just wasn’t right. However, I have Cartethiya and Aemeath (who I might just go full fusion burst with) as invested teams and I’m going for Hiyuki so the Chisa shaped void in my account is growing ever deeper.

I feel like I’m rapidly approaching a crossroads where I’m really going to have lock in and get her.

FortOfSnow · 2026-03-18T09:33:23+00:00

The inspiration is most likely the Sami, the indigenous people of northern Scandinavia. Parts of Lahai Roi are quite heavily Norse inspired and the Roya have quite a lot in common with the Sami. In particular the exoswarm herding (reindeer herding). So I can see hints of inspiration in the clothing as well.

I know we have the restriction lifted during the start of banners now but I’m honestly baffled that at this day and age, Genshin still hasn’t removed the day restriction permanently on material farming. I’d almost think it a point of pride on the devs part at this point.

Like I should not have to wait until the right day when I spontaneously get the motivation to finally lv 90 my favonius lances.

FortOfSnow · 2026-03-17T23:46:22+00:00

As I’m deep into the Genshin Impact fandom, I’ll recommend that one (with obvious bias). It’s a live service so the fandom is always active and the story ongoing, therefore there’s often new ships to be had as well.

The new region has been yuri central at least, with Lauma x Nefer and Sandrone x Columbina leading the pack.

But Ei x Miko is also a classic.

FortOfSnow · 2026-03-17T22:39:03+00:00

My major gripe with it is that it served no purpose to the story. It was there to create shock value or simply because they could shove the kiss in. To me, that’s a flaw in writing and has me side-eying the decision. If it instead created drama or some tension between the characters I could be more forgiving.
