I am healing my child you guys have to hear more about masterminds by Gorden Korman.
These books are so close to having interesting moral dilemmas but so far. They are a bit to wrapped up in the idea of legality as morality they try to break free from this but never mange to fully untangle them. They also want the characters to feel bad about doing stuff but refuse to let them willingly do the wrong thing. I think this works for Amber because it's kind of her deal but just doesn't really fit with the other characters.
also Amber is the best character and I have way more thoughts on her that I will try to organize into disjointed tumblr posts later.
Also she and Tori should kiss
In summery masterminds is a book series why they try to clone criminals instead of putting there resources to actual prison reform that would help people

I was going to rewatch 1931 Dracula again tonight and just as I turned it on a BAT started flying around at my window and wouldn’t go away and I’ve never seen a bat at my house before and let me tell you I’ve been so gay touched starved this quarantine I was about ready to risk letting a wild bat in my room if it meant it could possibly be one tall, Sexy vampire
Still on my Pokemon thoughts - I definitely think that, besides the fact that it's a video game and they needed to choose an appropriate number of moves for Pokemon to have, the "4-move" rule could be explained away in universe by the "Pokemon Trainer fights are a sport, with actual rules in place to make things as fair as possible considering we're dealing with magically overpowered creatures".
So, like, in the wild, Pokemon *might* know more than four moves. Hell, I think the gods legendaries probably have a lot more abilities than just The Four Moves they have in-game - the fact that they only use 4 before you catch them is only incidental to the fact that you're playing a video game, in real life they'd probably throw a bigger more destructive fuss - and I do wholeheartedly imagine a 10 to 14 year old protagonist just, sitting down with a legendary after catching them, explaining the rules of Pokemon Trainer Fights and if they want to join in on the fun, and also that they can only use Four Moves in actual Pokemon Trainer Fights.
Imagine being the 13 year old with the balls to tell, idk, Kyogre, a god who could flood the entire planet, that since Kyogre is caught now they're going to be besties and also can it please choose four moves to battle with ? Just the four. And as it gets stronger they can forget one to use a better move. And like. This is just hilarious to me okay, a very serious young teen explaining their hobby to a very powerful ancient being, and said being going 'this sounds like fun, sure'.
don't worry guys I have not taken the substance from the substance
I am currently sick and when I was trying to sleep my back was kind of pulsing and I have literally just watched the substance so there is no way that is a good sign
I think that it's good to sometimes read a book about a toxic relationship or cult and just be like man this would work on me. All of the red flags are being pointed out to me but I would still fall for this. There is some felling in my heart (some desperation) that will make me chose this knowing how it ends.
