Your Star (Synthesis) - Evanescence (Unofficial Lyric Video)

I wholeheartedly agree. ^^

Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition (Switch): I FORGOT TO MENTION AN IMPORTANT... THINGY!!! lol While Yuri, Estelle, and Repede were trekking through the Quoi forest they came across a kid that for some reason mistook them for an eggbear. I still don't really know how he could mistake them for a monster, but shortly after introductions, the kid from the Monster Hunter Guild whose name is Karol decided to join them. So, I got a new party member~ ^^ ^^ I can't believe I forgot to add this in the last post. >< I've been having him learn what skills he can from the equipment I've synthesized for him in the store in Harule. After I get him to learn the skills that he can from the available synthesized equipment I was able to get is when I'll proceed to move forward in the story. In Harule, there's an enormous (I mean ridiculously gigantic) tree that's normally a natural barrier that keeps monsters away from the town, but the tree is dead or dying. Karol knows why it's happening to the tree which is blood from monsters that Flynn and his knights dispatched when they arrived before Yuri, Estelle, Repede, and Karol did. Karol knows how to cure it, but first the party needs to get the materials needed to synthesize a Panacea Bottle since the store in Harule was out of stock of the item. So, the first material is a nia fruit which is apparently extremely bitter on its own and is located in the Quoi Forest. It's what Yuri and Estelle were forcing themselves to eat when Estelle passed out after coming into contact with the ruins of a blastia in the forest. There was a concentration of aer, which sounds like is the fuel to use blastia, that Estelle approached because she'd never seen anything like that before, then she passed out. Yuri, ever the gentleman, decided to make camp in the area where Estelle passed out and waiting for her to come to while forcing himself to eat the nia fruit because they had to eat something. That's when Estelle woke up and asked what happened, but that's when they theorized that the supposed curse of the forest (which was conveniently left out by the woman at Deidon Hold who mentioned Quoi Forest as an alternate route to get to Harule) was the concentrations of aer that were in the forest. Estelle and Yuri tried to keep eating the nia fruit, but it's so bitter that Yuri wanted to cook them something so they wouldn't have to eat something with such a bitter taste to it. That's when a tutorial on cooking started (Pretty fun feature to play around with btw). Yuri made sandwiches for him and Estelle. I tried to use Repede to cook something but so far all he's cooked is dog food every time. XD After that is when they ran into Karol. Oh, when a party member cooks food (they're not always successful though ^^; ) there's a temporary boost in the stat(s) or a recovery of HP and MP as a result that affects the entire party. So, it's a pretty useful feature in this game. After the party gets the nia fruit, the Eggbear's claw is the next ingredient, followed by a flower petal of the tree of Halure's blossoms which the mayor of the city/town has and is the last thing to get. First though, before I heal the tree, I'm having Karol learn some Skills from armor and weapons. That's what I left out last time. ^^;

lol The main thing that's stopping me is I keep playing the game because of how much I love it, so it's hard for me to pull away from it. When I do though, it's to talk on here or to the both of you on the usual site we talk. Tbh I've been crashed out during daylight hours and staying up all night for like 3 o r4 days and nights in a row. rofl I'm turning into a vampire, I swear to what there might be to swear to. XD I'll get around to it, but omg this game's a BLAST!!! It's my first "Tales of" game, too, and it doesn't disappoint in the least. ^^ ^^ Don't worry though, I'll get around to it. Just gotta be patient, my friends. ^^

Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition (Switch): I got through the alternate route to get to Halure which was Quoi Forest since the gate at Deidon Hold was closed for the time being. I think Repede still has a few more skills to learn, but after that is when I'll head to Halure to progress the story further. ^^ I was asleep most of the day today, so I haven't played any of it just yet, but that's as far as I got the last time I played it. ^^

Thank you very much. ^^ I've been wondering if I should (or even can) make a sig/avy set of Tales of Vesperia characters. I don't think I even know why it is I love that game so much. lol I don't think I'll never get tired of playing it. ^^

Control

It's a tie between Nier: Automata and Tales of Vesperia. Front Mission 1 and 2 are also my favorites because it's really difficult to just pick one favorite. >< What was the last nightmare you had?

Termination

Hellboy (2004 Ron Perlman version). I liked him as Hellboy. The newer one is cool, too, in his own way. At least I think so. ^^

End

Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition (Switch): After grinding for a while around Zaphias I proceeded to Deidon Hold which had interesting scenes. It's a place that has a big gate that they closed because monsters were stampeding towards it. The gate held, but I spotted a giant of a monster that was in the stampede. I'm curious as to what items I can get from it, but I know I'm not exactly in a position to try to find it, let alone fight it, this early in the game. ^^; Yuri and Estella ran out to the other side of the gate to help 2 kids inside. One of the kids was injured, but Estella was able to cure her thanks to her bodhi blastia being able to heal injuries. After she healed the girl, they ran inside Deidon Hold. Yuri went to get a kid that basically was frozen in place from fear of the stampede, but he forgot their stuffed animal, so he ran out to get it, then kind of slid under the gate as it was closing, just in time for the gate to close just behind him. Having rescued the kids and the stuffed animal, they got noticed. They were going to keep a low profile, but who wouldn't try to help those kids? So, they got the attention of one of the Empire's knights, but some guild members were getting rowdy so the knight had bigger problems, fortunately for Yuri, Estella, and Repede. A leader of another guild whose name I don't think was mentioned or revealed just yet talked about another route to get to Halure, which was where the party was going to catch up to Flynn, or try to. I haven't gone into the forest that has the detour just yet because I've synthesized some armor and weapons for the party that have Skills they can learn through using the various armors and weapons in battles. I'm pretty sure I've had Yuri learn all there is for him to learn insofar as Skills (and even unlocked some powerful Artes (which are like spells and special moves that can be used at the cost of the mana required to use each Arte) for not only Yuri, but also for Estella, and Repede. Repede has more skills to learn from the synthesized equipment, but I can't remember if Estella does or doesn't at this point. After I battle enough times for Repede to learn all available Skills in the available Equipment in my inventory is when I'll go to Quoi Woods which is where the alternate path to get to Halure is. I'm not sure I can emphasize just how much I love this game in words. ^^ ^^

lol This is why I don't get people older than me expecting me to be invincible or to be able to do the things they expect me to do just because I'm 36. >< I feel like I'm 80 and I'm expected to be in my prime? x.x I'd rather spend one day with the kid version of me to tell him things he should avoid doing no matter how curious he gets and to watch out for certain events that will happen. Would you rather drive a really fast in a motorcycle or a really fast car in a huge, open area without any bystanders around?

Thank you, @Sakura~ ^^ I always appreciate your kind words~~ ^^ ^^

Turbulence o.o

We've got a cat that we adopted who was a stray until PetSmart had it when we wanted another cat after our previous ones passed away. She's adorable in every sense of the word. ^^ Still sounds like a kitten, believe it or not. o.0 She's only a handful of years old, so she'll be with us for quite a while to come. ^^ When you were a kid, did you see yourself being how and where you are today?

The last thing I drank was a Cherry Limeade powder mix drink that mixes with water for flavor, and 2 crescent rolls. There was only 2 crescent rolls left after we ate dinner, which were the 2 I ate on an impulse because they looked tasty. lol I got into trouble for it, but crescent rolls are so good!!!!

A shower because I've been taking those since my adolescent years and by now it's more natural to me than if I were to try to take a bath. Omg, I could see myself getting frustrated and angry at not being able to get my slippery body out of the bathtub. lol Especially since I haven't taken a bath in so long. Showers I like because they're quicker, or at least I take quick showers. They last around 5 or 10 minutes. Believe it or not, I'm being serious. ^^; Would you rather have a pet chimera or a pet manticore(both are from Greek mythology)?
