pent: Black and white drawing of Jiaoqiu from Honkai: Star Rail (jiaoqiu)

Everyone's still working so hard. I'm the only one who's crying... that wouldn't be romantic at all, would it?

I have been ridiculously busy this past month with writing exchanges. Here are my belated thoughts on the Honkai: Star Rail version 3.7 Trailblaze Mission. I've had more time to reflect, I suppose, since I finished it a while ago.

Before getting into spoilers, I ended up pulling both Hyacine and her light cone! She's very powerful and fun to use. It's always funny watching her yeet that unicorn into the stratosphere. Unfortunately, I lost my 50/50 for Cyrene and am not really interested in anyone in the next version, so I will stockpile my jades for Stonehearts.

pent: Hugo Vlad from Zenless Zone Zero (hugo1)

Using truths whispered by the dead to expose the lies of the living: that is the standard by which I enact judgement. But this time... I want to use the words of the dead to gift a truth to the living.

I love Zenless Zone Zero more than life itself. The 2.4 story was a bit of a hot mess, but I loved every second of it. The devs are charging up for 2.5!

I was terrible at playing Banyue all the way up until the final boss, where I accidentally learned how to do the combo that the game's tool tips kept yelling at me to do for the entire zone. Yay! Unfortunately, I probably won't pull him, since I got Lucia at the last possible second and want to save for Ye Shuanguang, who's banner is right after his. Maybe next time!
