Don't mind me, just a college teacher exhausted by his semester.
Again, and sorry to be a literature teacher, but the Zelda series has wonderful writing and heart when left to express itself. The writing teams do wonders, but the Akira Himekawa (doesn't this mean "princess of the river"?) duo is phenomenal at bringing games to life through blanc-and-white panels!

Show me how your 2025 went

It went. That's how. I can almost see the horizon at long last.

I bought a few weeks ago, after yet another wrist-pain episode, a stability gauntlet (or "gant de compression" in French).
I should have bought one during my uni years: after hours of grading, no wrist pain!! 😩 💕 THIS IS AMAZING... oh the joys of being painless!

Well I sure feel called out after today.
A clear sign I need to log off.

13 years ago, in the land of Nippon, an eldritch abomination rose up from the 10th circle of Hell, until then unheard of, as to ruin a man's life.
Happy teenagehood, Paper Mario: Sticker Star! A game I... Oddly enjoy despite it all...?!
I must be masochistic.

Many years ago, an immersive, colourful adventure in a complex world took place on a portable console, an adventure during which a female protagonist shined brightly through personality and skills alike.
... What, Xenoblade 2? You silly Billies, this ain't Donkey Kong Country 3 GBA!

6. If the Zelda franchise is known for weapons, I...
Wouldn't know which to pick! Listen, I know Wind Waker like the back of my hand, and it's a game about weapon *combinations*...
I guess I'd go with my hammer. Playing Wind Waker swordless - thanks randomizer - showed me how great and fun it is!

5. An underrated Zelda character... When I read such a question, my mind oddly went to Phantom Hourglass's blacksmith, Zauz. Something about a man honing his craft on an isolated island always... appealed to me, like those hermits we have in Québec. I dunno, it's... mesmerizing.

I'm a Zelda veteran for sure, having finished more than half of the games and spin-offs alike, more often than not ~100% too... Worth a try!

Ice cream, you said?

I should talk more about the books I read, huh? Same for video games...
Odd. I have so much to share in my classes, I am blessed with students who discuss with me about their series and books and games...
But online, I struggle to do just that. I wonder where the old me went...
