i'm comfortable writing this off as a stylistic/terminology thing i guess

i will say i am actively trying to link the worlds of hercule and everyone else together through consulting with dkkoba because apparently hercule is the protagonist of this story and every protagonist needs an expositional npc

i've played a few games with radiantcowbells and have on at least 2 occasions discussed them with people irl (when they naturally came up in the discussion). i assume you had more to ask here based on my response right?

hercule = radiantcowbells

dkkoba = megafan

not to say hercule has the same playstyle as rc but the aura of infatuation is there

vibes i got from inncentvillager iso was a kind of hyper-excited style in the middle that i'm honestly not sure how to read, a notable flip on the worst below (the change in vote comes right after i vote the worst after i join the thread), and a lack of engagment when he starts coming under pressure? Reading the last few posts I don't get a strong sense of engagement with the wagon on him.
I think I liked the Agar read even though idk how I feel about that slot (aside from bad early vibes on my first read)

why did you roll scum without me

Totally, and yes I'm sure there was. Offhand I was just like "why are you saying that that's not true".

I think I like Hercules even more than the name I picked LOL

so far the only thing I remember you saying about my slot was that you felt I was pushing you uncharitably at daystart. Is that your big ping?
