Cue the Always Sunny Frank Reynolds meme going "Oh my God, I get it."
'Cause I do. I totes do. It's fab ❤️
Plus, it takes my gaming rig for a proper shiny spin 😎✨

Very late to the party as per, but with the sequel being out and all the anti-woke nonsense making me want to play it more, I figured it was high time I got my samurai on with the original 🗡️🏹🎮
Yay for vouchers I forgot I had! 😄

I have the best parents ever! Thanks to them, I finally ticked off a bucket list item in meeting a HUGE hero mine: the incredible Kerry Ellis! 😍
And seeing her perform on a stage in my hometown that I performed on ❤️🤯
Year made.

Finally overcame the mental back & forth and made the leap from laptop to tower. Your gal now has a somewhat "proper" gaming hub for some "proper" PC gaming 🤪🖥️
DAYUM she pretty! 😍

And I'm gonna try out the biggest graphics hog games I own first, naturally 🤣

Almost 3 years to the day I last got it, good ol' Covid has decided to pay me another visit. Woo 🥴
Luckily, I'm being closely monitored by this adorable floof, so that's a plus.

Nostalgia is a toxic impulse but also I miss the time when tech trends were things like "let's put everything in a translucent colored plastic case" instead of "let's add software to everything that lies and also accelerates climate change"

It's so special to me ❤️ My first ever experience of gaming at 5 years old was Sonic the Hedgehog on Game Gear.

In fact, the first 2 playthroughs on my new YouTube channel are Game Gear games, one series being my (user)namesake ☺️

Pixie of Illusion 🎮🖋️🌈 @pixieofillusion.bsky.social · Aug 20

Yay! See you there ☺️

@grundislav.games Hey! 🙂 How are you? Hope all is well. Congrats on Lola being an AdventureX mascot this year - so exciting all around! 🤩🫶
Incidentally, I have a random Rosewater question if I may. Harley's hair: is it all gathered up in a loose bun or is it a half up half down thing? Just curious 😜
