taevachi: Sethos from Genshin Impact smiling at the camera (sethos darling)
I think I need to cut down on coffee: two cups of it within 6 hours and I become anxious and dizzy for the rest of the day. Need to try to focus more on tea again... My main teapot broke at one point. I bought a new one now and everything, but it's been a bit of work to get back into that habit.

Genshin Sumeru event spoilers!

I enjoyed that so muchhhhh just like any time there is a Sumeru event. Sumeru characters are my favourites, Sumeru is my favourite. And as a Sethos fan it was AWESOME to hear Zeno for the first time in a long while! And have Sethos in an event... People need to stop underestimating him! I streamed myself playing the event to my friend and he was like, you've been the number one fan of this no-name 4* character for so long you deserve props for it. He is a fool, of course; I am nowhere near the biggest Sethos fans. But I do like him a lot. And of course I loved having my favourite guy Hat Guy being namedropped. (Would've been better if he was in the event but I get it, he's in Nod Krai.)

Imma be real, I was not spoiled to that event, so... When I saw Zandik's name on that letter in the domain I almost fell down from my chair! I kept yelling at the screen: "Lumine! Paimon! It's Dottore! Paimon haven't you read the Genshin comic, it's Dottore!" But it seems like they truly didn't know. What is it gonna lead to, are we going to have Dottore's return to Sumeru to burn down the Irminsul like in the old Sumeru trailer? If they actually do that I'll be so on that Genshin train again. I haven't even finished Natlan story because I don't care much about it... Sumeru is where Genshin peaked for me. xD

Speaking of Nod Krai, it's apparently based on Finland, the Baltics, and tiny bits of Russia/Snezhnaya in. It mentions Kuutar, which is actually the name of the Finnish moon goddess. Not that it has any connections to actual Finnish mythology beyond random names. Like Eye of Kratti, Kratti or Aarni is a spirit that protects treasure. And the island names, Hiisi, Lempo and Paha.... What, the Fatui are on an island literally called Paha ("Evil")? xD "Hiisi" means a scared place, but the word was demonized after the arrival of Christianity. Lempo is a big question... It refers to a fireball/comet thing in the sky. People can't seem to agree if it means a demon, a fire spirit/goddess, or a love goddess of some kind even. But she was obviously demonized at some point. Why are these islands so darn demonic ^^'''

NPC names have also been hilarious. For example, we have ladies named "Some Flowers" (Kukkia) and "Without Honey" (Hunajatta). And no, these are not real Finnish names. It's a weird choice considering that "Flower" (Kukka) would've been a real name.
