what scumreads do you have?
like maybe Jupiter but not really confident there and that's about it

For some reason it feels like Black doesn't believe our serious vote is serious, idk why
What makes you think that
If you were taking it serious we'd expect you to either go "grr this is a shitpush" or "what makes you say that" (woah deja vu) instead of the lighthearted banter
hmm, this is maybe town. and i think may even have been why black stopped voting there
i don't really find that post is any less strange than the rest of the interaction. what makes you think it's town?

Black can be our first townread, she's got her thinking cap on in 25
VOTE: JV
fwiw (if u even care...) i think these are the two most notable posts of rvs and the part that makes the interaction feel weird to me
i think black's mindset in the interaction makes sense generally but is also like very rote and expected
35 is weird bc it feels kinda overexplained and i guess the like, thoughtful response vibe feels out of place with what is otherwise a joking rvs situation
36 is just a strange thing to townread black for and feels a little awkward to me
i think the thread response to the interaction was also somewhat interesting particularly jupiter and tris voting python and black respectively with a blam and a bwam respectively but also not really directly engaging with the content of it. although i think from my later discussion with tris she wasn't particularly interested in the posts that i found interesting and was more interested in black's vote on jupiter. interesting interest interesting

neutral black. maybe a tiny bit towny since if she's scum then i would sort of expect her to push the situation more unless she's partnered with python which i think i agree is somewhat less likely
slightly scummy python but i also feel like they're playing this fairly differently from the marathon that inspired this game although there could be a variety of reasons for that

python going like "what is your favorite genre serious question" and then secretly hoping jupiter says horror as like a gotcha journalism method and then as soon as jupiter doesnt say horror instantly going like "aw darn i hoped you were gonna say horror" is kinda cool but i dont have much to say about it im just kind of like writing it down in class for lack of anything else to do knowing im not gonna study over it later
i thought it seemed kinda overdone idk
In hindsight "constant" is probably the wrong word but that was the mental impression before we iso'd them for quotes

also preferred music genre (scouting recruits for walrus that won't happen)
oh god these are a lot of questions
i think my favorite experience in a mafia game was back in 2021 where i rolled SK after replacing into a slot and fakeclaimed twice (first as hider, then as doctor) and everyone BELIEVED me. and i actually managed to keep this up until we were at the day until ELO. that being said it was back in 2021 and i haven't played a 3p game outside of mafia.gg since. and mafia.gg is lowkey stinky
so i'd say i enjoy playing scum since being town is lowk stressful lol
okay so I don't actually know how to answer this question since I don't really watch movies all that most. i like ghibli though???? i watched the ace attorney movie for christmas and the boy and the heron sometime afterwards also i liked those movies
i don't know i like a lot of music. i really like classical but it depends on the composer. i like hatsune miku. i'm a miku fan. i also like video game music. and idk i just listen to something and if i like it i loop it for hours. what's walrus
Darn we can't advance the serious read with this. If you answered with something stressful like horror movies we could have pointed to it to hardcore agree with fire's "stress = fun" take on you
i really hate the way the horror movie genre is developed is because none of it is actually good. what i've seen mostly uses over-the-top gore and doesn't build suspense or fear in an interesting way. btw i love blood & gore i eat that shit breakfast lunch and dinner!!!!!!!!
i have yet to see good horror movies will accept reccomendations tho
now if you asked me about my favorite video game subgenres i would ABSOLUTELY say horror. particularly i like psychological horror more than general horror but i think jumpscare horror works (only sometimes, though). i think the reason why, say, FNAF, works as a video game, because it's not a jumpscare horror based on like. haha get scared look at my freaky guy. you only get jumpscared when you get fucked up. and also at some point you get desensitized to the jumpscares so they stop working.
i LOOVE yume nikki. it's so good as a game because of how interesting it's formatted. i still have yet to finish it but when i played it a while back it was so fun. i did end up getting bored a lot of times due to the lack of stimulation (no dialogue). most games are walking simulators and yume nikki is basically that except you add a bit of mental illness into the mix. OMORI is one of those super popular indie horrors and it's kind of on the opposite end of yume nikki like god damn that game is colorful as fuck. so much stuff to do. it was certainly an experience it felt like such a bait and switch to me and the (location name spoiler)
BLACK SPACE
segment was so well-done. the game is also very good at exploring topics related to mental health. so yes i've played some decent indie horror. DDLC was a doozy of a game tho I don't like thinking about it. Another horror I liked was Vincent: The Secret Of Myers but it was more point-and-click if that's the right word. It's an itch.io game. There's a few more itch.io horrors that I played but only one of them really sticks out in my head and it was only because I kept fuckign dying because I was too dumb to figure out how to progress. There was also a game on steam called imscared or something. That was cool I think I liked paying money for that. I like it when the pixels are scary af btw.
Also Danganronpa lowkey went hard but I'm trying to get out of it bc like man that fandom is not good bro. like I step into the dangan fandom and it's like. life is not daijoubu. Gifted kid battle royale was Such a premise. loved the ace attorney mechanics. The executions went so hard (I am ignoring the amount of plot fuckups in the entire series. I don't like thinking about it. Why were there so many crimes against humanity. What was up with the character assassination. Please free me from this horrible game)
probably none of this matters but I like these things. You can read that and watch me slowly get more and more deranged over the course of this entire post I spent like ten minutes typing it out
Every single game on this list had me in a chokehold for years, especially and unfortunately Danganronpa lmao

How can there be a deep wolf when no one is flipped and no one has made any hard reads?
