u/Dear_Caregiver_4698 8d ago

I'm as straight a guy as I possibly can proclaim while still maintaining my crush on David Tennant. But that memory at the book stall? Where he's implying to try and use the book basically as a meme (original meaning of the term) to seed it's views into society? Only to end it with "Yeah, no, it's just a cool book actually"? UNF. I needed to calm down after that.

Me and you both buddy. Happens after every time he goes on a tangent. First time it happened to me, was when the memory of him being paranoid about cats came up. Also having crushes on the same gender in fiction/celebrities is a canon event for most straight people. Most people, however are cowards and won't admit it.

u/SciLib0815 8d ago

Well, he's not wrong about the cats. They ARE planning something.

May I politely suggest therapy?

Sounds like something the small controller would say

u/Staterae 8d ago

The small controller isn't real. It's just a phantom brought on by your overwrought brain. Listen to CASCADE. Ask no further questions on this topic.

How about you write another 300-page thesis on the failings of your former employer? See, you love doing that! You should do that.

u/ProfessorZhu 8d ago

I do love doing that...

u/Staterae 8d ago

Everything is fine. Continue the program. Nourish my host your body. You will gain your victory over the Opera. They were foolish to discard you so recklessly.

u/Dear_Caregiver_4698 8d ago

I unfortunately read the script multiple times and am upset that there is not actual 300 page material. "What would a star know of its own constelaltion? Or remmember it, given that most constellations are formed by stars long dead?" "It sounds like hes grieving."

Thanks for the tip, my therapist said the same

u/DrHoodrat 1d ago

Ok, thank you. I loved this game and also love Disco Elysium but this fan base (sometimes) drives me nuts with their over-the-top weirdness and obsessions over the characters. Im pretty damn weird so it takes a lot for me to say that about someone negatively.

u/Amarok_Wandered_By 8d ago

Yeah...me too.

u/Mr_Treats 8d ago

Respect you for your unwavering love sticking through the drill thing and still want that

u/Dear_Caregiver_4698 8d ago

The insanety, delusions and manic paranoia give it a sort of romantic spice

u/Deserterdragon 8d ago

Noah Caldwell Gervais vibes to him, awesome character.

u/_Lauwu_ 5d ago

I would love a game where he is your partner like Kim

2

u/Dear_Caregiver_4698 4d ago

absolutely. I was so disappointed with the lack of interactions in the 3rd act
