Rambling mode...

This post should be seen as 100% rambling. The reason why being that the brain of John L'Otter has entered U.S mode. Okay, maybe the situation over there across the ocean is worse than this sea otter's brain.

So did he do any wrong?
No, not this he. John doesn't identify himself with the river otters, so apathy is quite obviously expected. John is more interested in this he. So did he do any wrong? It won't be surprising if this was just another day of British media. It's not as if Leeds got 3 points docked over a 50-50 reason against Blackburn. Oh wait, that's John's beloved Boro. If there's any reason to argue this he did no wrong, let's refer to the Mogganaut's own words.

A person of Salsa Bielsa's intelligence wouldn't commit this kind of mistake if he was doing something ethically wrong. So what if his grandfather wasn't Lee Kuan Yew? He's still a genius. End of argument. Don't believe John, go ask Pep.
Let's be honest with ourselves: We don't mind Leeds hiring her to spy on our teams.

Getting unblocked?
After spending a number of farcical years not of his own doing, he's back. His name is Tan Cheng Bock, you can never block the Bock. Okay, that's extremely cheesy, corny, or whatever you wanna call that. Seriously, if the Workers' Party wants to find a worthy ally, PSP will be that very friend it needs. Erm no, PSP=/=the portable gaming console done by Sony. PSP stands for Progress Singapore Party. And yes, it really sounds more politically correct than Singaporeans First Party. Then again, Singaporeans has always been known to be politically correct. *shrugs* As for John, he prefers Berserk to the currently ongoing Oxleygate saga.


Getting blocked
It's very common for guys to get friendzoned by girls on Facebook. And because John needs to be fair at the risk of sounding politically incorrect, allow him to say "vice versa as well". Not so recently, Singaporeans experienced some sort of naval invasion after two nations agreed on a ceasefire of sorts. To set the record straight, this wasn't the worst case of a political breach of trust. 9 years ago, something happened. And being the salty people they're capable of becoming, those salty Koreans weren't amused. John knows this sounds like a joke made at the expense of 박여신's agency, but in reality, actual circumstances were anything but a laughing matter.

Compared to ROKS Cheonan, the presence of Pedoman was nothing. Compared to the fallout 9 years ago, this one is nothing. To be honest, below scenario would have more impact.

The reason behind the current brain hibernation?
Spent quite some time playing League of Angels III. To be honest, this one was more addicting than the first one. When John played League of Angels I and Wartune, the feeling he got was trying to navigate the keys unless he desired auto-pilot mode. It was... well, frustrating. Not so much about the gameplay, but rather John's brain couldn't keep up. So yeah, some games were fun. Sad thing, though, was that John's brain couldn't adjust to the pacing. After all, players like Xavi, Paul Scholes, and Marco Verratti aren't Theo Walcott.

And therein lies the possible reason why John's brain might have tired out. League of Angels III is more... well, user-friendly. Not n00b friendly unless you wanna go full auto. The tactical value of the gameplay is nigh zero, but the strategic aspect can be quite fun if you're a sucker for trying to make the seemingly broken/insane work. Right now, John managed to unlock the astral artillery. The Divine Arma bow known as Dreamfall Meteor is a blast on the Department of Dps Rampage. Quite obviously better Divine Arma will unlock one by one (Frostbringer would be that first actual challenge to get and use). For now, Telina is now a certified sniper.

If there's such a thing called pet peeve from John, it'd be the fact that gamers can't delete their characters. You most likely can only have one character per account. Because John intended to create a male character instead of a female one, he realised too late that character creation has some sort of timer. As a result, he had no choice but to use a female character. Then again, it's a video game. You know what it means?

Interesting fact:

Waiting to be fixed...

New story ideas...
But no, John is not gonna implement them. Let's see things this way: If Hirano Jigokuta must finish Hellsing before starting on Drifters, what makes John think he's smarter than a certified story-telling genius?

Three gods of light in heaven above
Five spirits of the wild for the fae below
Seven kings of men share a throne
Fifteen pillars in all hide a dove


John doesn't want to speculate how good this poem of his is, but it's actually inspired by J.R.R Tolkien's attempt at poetry, which is something no Singaporean can ever pull off. That's how fallible the river otters are. Then again, a sea otter is also an otter.

A few ideas running inside, but John isn't going to leave his (watered down) version of Berserk behind.

1. Usage of runes. This needs to be tweaked because runes do exist in both the real world and John's fantasy world. There's at least one idea going on, but it's more practical to say screw it until the moment comes.

2. The main character is a druid. Adopted by the fae, no less. His personality? Tentatively like Oda Nobunaga when he was still the Fool of Owari.

3. Fireworks, explosive runes, and a destructive Aozaki Aoko. John is gonna leave it at here.

4. The guy's name is Iraff D'Niel. John might have based the name off Jon Irenicus if not for a gross lack of creativity.

5. Do the fae have a problem with humans and vice versa? *shrugs*

Anything else?

Okay, no. Apart from this song.

Don't you love it when you realised what's truly wrong with everything around you including yourself? Yeah, we're all screwed, Singaporean or no Singaporean.
