There's like 21% left of it to go.

Is it getting any easier? No.

Steven doesn't really seem all that bothered by it, suggesting that this is a rather playful/affectionate nickname.

Also please note that quote is me roughly paraphrasing, he does refer to Steven as "a pampered heir" though

i.e. I think it'd be funny if Steven is a bit of a brat, but it's Wallace's fault of all people...

Suggestive: I like to think Wallace's "I will bow down to the whims of a pampered heir" is something from experience (sexual or otherwise). The phrasing makes it sounds like he's a bottom, but for whatever reason I'm fully convinced he's the top when he does this.

I have no basis for this, but I feel like Sabito and Takeo would be absolute menaces in messing with Giyuu and Tanjirou.

FWIW I've built better eating habits because some of my favorite characters ate a variety of foods.

Feel like I should put it out there, I am a casual mikudai enjoyer (this is not reversible)

Insane of me to forget Sootopolis City, the ORAS arrangement is vastly better.

So much so I like to imagine Wallace and Steven sharing a dance together (the one pose from La La Land comes to mind)

no one (ピング) @purenguyening.bsky.social · 9h

Personal opinion the tracks I tend to prefer the ORAS arrangement:
-Encounter Champion
-Mt. Pyre Summit
-VS Magma/Aqua Leader (only barely)

Suggestive: This is from my time studying/playing music, but I'm completely unfazed by the phrase fingering/tonguing/blowing.

However, I do feel like we should meme on French Horn players more for fisting (if you know, you know)

no one (ピング) @purenguyening.bsky.social · 9h

I feel like I'm slightly more sensitive because I have, like...listened to French Horn so I know the nuances between trumpet and french horn well, but trumpets in the RSE soundtrack are only as memorable as they are because there's a lot of bass and baritone supporting it.

(You're right, though)

Can you sense I might have played a bit of music before? Maybe?

no one (ピング) @purenguyening.bsky.social · 9h

That last one feels insane 'cause it feels like one of the few tracks where they actually remembered what dynamics were.

Also I like think the very beginning the trumpet was muted....

I'm still annoyed they swapped out the French Horn bits for the Route 104 for clarinets. It's less....sonorous and it leaves a less of an impression as a result.

no one (ピング) @purenguyening.bsky.social · 9h

Every now and then I think it's extremely funny that RSE's OST is mostly remembered for its trumpets, but I still think the only reason the trumpets are as memorable as they are is due to French Horn.

This is mostly because I think about the instrumentation of the RSE soundtrack a lot.

(For context, I think Steven has a tendency to "hide" underground for reasons a little too convoluted to explain here, but it is largely a daiyuu reason)

no one (ピング) @purenguyening.bsky.social · 9h

Convoluted, but I like the idea that Brendan's Swampert can drum the ground and create an earthquake. (Think the timpani rumbling from VS Battle Ancient Pokemon). Along with me fond of the idea that Brendan can play Trumpet and French Horn, I like to think they have use this to goad Steven.

In a similar vein I think it'd be funny if Takeo was like "the final" boss for any suitors for Tanjirou and Nezuko. Like, I kind think it'd be funny to see Takeo be really stern and have a hard time warming up to anyone Tanjirou and Nezuko dated.

no one (ピング) @purenguyening.bsky.social · 9h

Also during those five miles I had thought about a scenario where Takeo develops a crush and the moment Tanjirou and Nezuko find out, they act SO melodramatic. The typical shit like "Takeo's all grown up now"

It's too silly of a concept for me to use, but it has entertained me a handful of times during those five miles.
