Just Write: Month 57, Week 4

A very common trope in things ranging from Star Trek to Jughead (yes, Jughead).

A Monday update, but hopefully done early in the day!

Also, Chinese New Year has passed. Remember that you have my perpetual pass to celebrate it even if you lack the “proper” ethnicity (gee, THAT rhetoric sounds familiar). As long as you’re nice and respectful, that’s all that matters.

Final Week Fables: Legend of the Five Rings: Junshin

“I am Shinjo Temujin, outrider the Ninth Junghar Legion. And I shall stand for Shosuro Genichiro.”

This month’s short story is a sequel to another one on this site! The first of its kind!

…What do you mean “Who’s even keeping count anymore”?

Before the battle of the fist, comes the battle of the mind, and WHAT IS THAT HAIR?

Ret’s Review: God of War: Ragnarok

Kind of like if they decided to reveal that Spider-Man’s Uncle Ben wasn’t a kindly mentor, but in fact a criminal who got shot trying to steal a car.

And we’re back to the monthly original post! And as you can see, I’m reviewing something people have had their hands on for months now, except it’s semi-timely because I got it as a Christmas gift!

Now: Are you ready to Ragnarok-and-roll?

Nope, not sorry for that. Deal with it.

Ret’s Review: God of War (PS4)

The game’s main draw, of course, is the combat (again: God of WAR).

It’s the end of the month, so it’s time for an original post!

By which I mean I’ll talk about something that already exists without having to come up with something from scratch.

Which has been around for quite awhile, and which I am reviewing long after that, because I opt to play games I get for free while seldom buying them outright.

Quality content, people!

Ret’s Review: Elden Ring

That’s where you, THE (Maidenless) TARNISHED, come in.

It’s time for a monthly original post! And this time around, it’s on time, but about something that came out long ago in internet-years!

It’s…ELDEN RING!

Ret’s Review: Encanto

Also, there’s a character who is a big, muscly woman with super-strength.

Well, folks, it’s time for another belated review of something that’s been out for awhile! Just call me Slowbro, because my stuff is only going to get more dated!

And what’s on the menu for today?

Only the Disney movie with a musical number which toppled “Let It Go” from Frozen.

Ret’s Review: Squid Game

You may now proceed to call me “basic”.

So I opted to enjoy my weekend taking a break after a draining week, but hey, it’s time for some somewhat original content!

By which I mean I am posting my opinion on the internet, as was intended for the internet.

So here, have a belated review of something…TRENDING! Kinda.

Terrible Tardy Tales: Halt Who Goes There

“Tog not know inner machinations of Grog brain!”

Suuuuuuuper late update. Chalk it up to laziness and writer’s block. But one way or another, the show must go on!

And what is the image inspiring the tale?

“Wait, wait, wait, the rulebook says you can only attack as a reaction if I leave your threatened area-“

Well. Now to see if it was worth the wait! Ehhhhhhhhhhh.

Fabletop Classes: Artificers & Craftificers

It’s none of my business if you want to make a crocodile in a jetpack with a boxing glove gun.

And we’re back with my monthly post!

And we’re returning to the realm of D&D and RPGs!

…Wait, didn’t I say that I’d finished up the last of the base classes?

So I did!

But a new player has joined the battle! …Officially!
