Pretty Decent Friday
May. 30th, 2025 11:47 pmLike the weather wasn't the greatest -- it was by turns cloudy, windy, and kinda muggy -- and I was rather tired a lot of the day after getting to bed too late last night, but I had a pretty good, fairly productive day overall --
Work – Fairly quiet Friday to end the week – I did the GL; I finished off the roster maintenance that came with the exceptions (along with fixing a few other things I found along the way); I endured going into the kitchen to celebrate Talky Coworker’s birthday (as yes, it was also her birthday today); and I tried not to get too bored with my work or annoyed with her chatter. *sigh* At least now she’s GONE – like, yes, I know she’ll be back for visits, but I don’t have to put up with her every fucking workday. Hoo-fucking-ray! And even better, now it’s the weekend again, yay~ Hopefully it shall be a good one!
To-Do List –
1. Get in a workout: Check – final night on the bike this week, pedaling my way through another pair of Proxy Gate Tactician’s videos:
A) “Can You Beat Baldur's Gate 3 Without Killing Anything?” – one of Proxy’s first challenge runs, seeing if he could beat the game without having to kill a single person directly (buffing NPCs to kill things for him and setting up traps to allow enemies to kill themselves was allowed, though). And the answer, happily, was yes – though it did take some careful planning, a little bit of cheesing, and working around various bugs and crashes near the end. Basically, the strat involved:
I. Making his player character a duergar (underdark dwarf) sorcerer, statted to have great Strength, Constitution, and Charisma, so they could leap, sneak (duergars get automatic access to the “Invsibility” cantrip at level 5), and talk their way out of trouble, while also being able to take a hit from enemies NOT doing a Technical Pacifist run
II. Making sure to get as much non-combat experience as possible by exploring, passing speech checks, and doing quests where it’s very easy to avoid combat – which, hilariously, meant avoiding the main quest as much as possible, as that involves a lot of murder. He didn’t do anything with the Emerald Grove beyond go shopping, for example! His poor characters were RATHER underleveled by the endgame as a result, but Proxy made it work!
III. Taking full advantage of having NPC allies in fights by buffing the hell out of them so THEY could kill all his problems (notably, giving Aylin “Haste” and throwing invisibility potions at her during the fights with Ketheric Thorm)
IV. Glitching the hell out of Orin to trap her in the form of a child (as she kidnaps your orphan cook Yenna if you don’t have any companions she can kidnap in your camp in Act III), then knocking her out with a tap on the head to claim her Netherstone without killing her
V. Struggling to deal with the fight with Gortash, holder of the third Netherstone, after this (as he was not happy with the group for not KILLING Orin, like they agreed to when they sided with him), as, the FIRST time Proxy tried to finish him off by tricking his own magical turrets into shooting him (via sneakily casting “Sanctuary” on himself before walking close to Gortash), he learned that, at a certain health threshold, Bane (Gortash’s god) empowers the guy with a load of extra hit points and a bunch of damage resistances. Fortunately, during the rematch, Proxy managed to get the turrets to not only damage Gortash, but also one of his Steel Watch guard robots – and said robot self-destructed, taking out its master with it. XD That was a lucky break!
VI. Tricking the Netherbrain into killing itself by setting up a bunch of explosive barrels on the platform it was trying to destroy...only for that to crash the game, so Proxy had to fiddle until he discovered that setting up the explosive trap on the platform NEXT to the one it was trying to destroy did not cause his game to freak out.
And there you have it – a walkthrough of how you beat the game without TECHNICALLY killing anyone. Or, at least, how you did it back on November 13th, 2023 – I imagine subsequent patches may have messed up this strat a little! Still fun to watch, though.
B) “Baldur’s Gate 3 Early Access - Summon Challenge” – Proxy, back in the “Early Access” days of the game, deciding to see if a bunch of summons – including a dire raven named Corvus, a Mage Hand called Master Hand, a trio of pinchy pinchy crabs, an imp from the Hells, and a large burning lava rock called Orby – could defeat the hardest encounter in the game at that time – a Githyanki death squad in the mountains! The answer was “yes, but it required cheesing.” For, you see, while the team did quite well against a group of goblins over in a decaying village, taking them out with a single crab casualty, the Githyanki proved to be a LOT fucking tougher, and a lot better at killing the summons. Fortunately, this is where the cheese came in –
For, you see, since the whole point of this challenge was seeing if only SUMMONS can kill the Githyanki, that meant the ACTUAL CHARACTERS weren’t in the fight. They were in fact hiding in a bush nearby. And since they weren’t in combat, that meant they were free to RESUMMON their various friends over and over again and send them into the fray. So, while Orby was the only summon to survive the entire fight (due to having 50 HP), the endless reinforcements ended up beating the Githyanki in the end. I would say “good to know,” but this was done in the Early Access version of BG3, so I don’t think it’s relevant to my own playthrough. XD Though, on the plus side, as the very first challenge video Proxy ever did, this is basically the video that launched his channel theme, so it’s the reason I have all the OTHER cool videos to watch. :P
2. Continue writing “The Van Dort Vacancy”: Check – and I made sure to do this FIRST tonight, to make absolutely sure I could finish a page should things go bad in the old brainpan and make it so every word was a struggle. Fortunately, I did not have to fight against my own brain tonight, and I was able to finish up Chapter 1 of this story with Matt arriving carrying Victor and Alice’s freshly-washed-and-mended clothes (courtesy of “Widow Black,” whose name IS that of a certain Corpse Bride spider’s reversed), and Alice and Victor insisting on helping with getting breakfast ready because they’d be happier if they did (with Carol putting them on powdered sugar (Victor) and jam (Alice) fetching duties – the latter allowing me to work in the trio telling each other their favorite fruits, AND the fact that truly “wild” bananas are absolutely full of seeds with Alice being surprised Smiler likes them so much because of that. Fortunately for Smiler, the Cavendish family (named after the most common commercially-traded banana cultivars, themselves named after the 6th Duke of Devonshire in the real world) spearheaded breeding efforts to make less seedy bananas in the past ten years :p). Chapter ended with Victor getting ready to dust the “eggy toast” with powdered sugar (encouraged by Carol, who said when he told her that he’d probably get it all over himself that that was “part of the fun”). :) Next time, we move onto starting Chapter 2 and the trio walking Victor back to the Van Dort mansion in Nightmarket...only to be surprised by a bunch of carriages outside the house for some reason...
3. Keep up with YouTube “Subs”: Check – and yes, it was straight onto “CaFae Latte Season 55 - TikTok Compilation” by C. M. Alongi tonight, to see –
A) JC and Nicole ATTEMPTING to have dinner at JC’s parents’ place – only for JC’s dad to pull out a little light racism (being surprised that Nicole, who is canonically black, is a teacher and not like a lunch lady back in his day), and JC’s mom to object to Nicole’s stimming and TRY TO GRAB HER HAND. JC and Nicole both were like “bail” after that, as you might expect!
B) JC relating this story to Cyrus and Oscar the next day – only for the asshole who got cursed to never get a girlfriend for seven years until he learned to see women as people, not pets, to show back up and start demanding to talk to Bob so he could try and get her to uncurse him. The others were like “that’s not happening,” and Oscar in particular was like “if you’re just going to cause a scene, I’m going to have to ask you to leave” –
And when the guy didn’t go, Oscar NAILED him with a blast of bright light (accidentally sending spots dancing across JC’s vision as well, as they didn’t cover their eyes when Cyrus said). Turns out that, yes, Oscar is an angel – a seraphim, to be precise! I thought he was better lit than the others… :P
C) Oscar giving everyone a lore-dump on himself and his life when Bob came in to see what had happened while she was doing inventory (over the course of two videos), explaining how he passes as human given seraphim are supposed to have HUGE wings (a guy he helped fend off a gang turned out to be a fairy who was able to enchant his cross necklace to turn his wings into tattoos on his back – he brings them out to go flying regularly though); how the light powers he has work (basically the brightness responds to his emotions – joy and rage cause the kind of light that blasted that guy’s eyes; grief and sorrow dampen it); and how he ended up homeless – turns out that the reason he was so annoyed by Ben talking about the angel cult was because his mother pulled much the same shit when she moved them there out of the seraphim realm (which is a horrible place that has a war going on like every other week), and when she finally got caught, he got fired from his job because they believed he was somehow connected to her crimes. And sadly, this happened at a time where he’d had to take out a mortgage on his house to try the pay the medical bills he racked up after getting (and fortunately beating) pancreatic cancer, meaning that suddenly he was unable to pay ANY of his bills, and – yeah. Lost the house, ended up on the streets. Everyone was very sympathetic to his bad draw, and Cyrus was like “does anyone else who works here have decent family relations besides me?” (Yes, Cyrus – Drek, Husniya, and Rethu, aka the person you’re DATING.)
D) Cyrus asking what Husniya was looking up on her break – turned out it was homeschooling options. Rethu was like “why” and Cyrus and Drek reminded them about some of the worst stuff about school – too much homework, awful curriculum, bullies –
And Husniya put in “I also don’t want my girls to get shot.” *wince* Cyrus tried to comfort her by saying that Bob and Nicole would load the kids up with good luck charms, and that those shootings mostly happened in southern states...only for Drek to then reveal HE survived an attempted school shooting. One of his asshole classmates got himself a revolver and tried to kill the teacher and some other kids, but fortunately he had the wrong ammunition and the gun jammed. Kid’s now in jail, but still. ...Rethu pointed out that the Canadian border was only an hour away if you flew after that. :(
E) And Oscar, Cyrus, and JC all sharing “time in jail” stories (since they’ve all been arrested – Oscar for “loitering” (aka being homeless); Cyrus for activism; JC for their drug issues) – Oscar relating how he made a friend of a thief by making the guy crack up when he tried to steal Oscar’s muffin; Cyrus talking about how someone tried to beat him up once, only to be left drooling on the floor – and then apologizing to Cyrus later once it got out the guy was half-troll and trying to hide it from the other inmates (Cyrus DID help him, and Bob got a lovely renovated kitchen in return once they got out and the guy became a handyman); and JC admitting that they originally made friends with drug dealers when they originally went to jail, only to beat them up when they went back while trying to get clean. Ended up with a group of other recovering addicts to hang out with after that, at least…
And then the episode ended with Kelly and Nicole going out shopping, with Kelly helping expand Nicole’s wardrobe as a thank you for her new hair accessory protective charms. :) It’s great to see them getting along so well! And I’m quite looking forward to the next one, as the thumbnail promises eldritch customers – and given my vague Valicer/CaFae Latte crossover AU thoughts, with Smiler being a bit eldritch themselves, I’m very interested to see what kind of customers they are...
4. Get my tumblr queues sorted: Substitute check and check –
Victor Luvs Alice (N Smiler) – Didn’t have anything over here to put into the queue tonight...but I did get a reblog from The Satirical Demon (author of the Valice Hellworld fic) on my “How To Write Smiler Alton: A Guide” post. With a Spongebob Squarepants gif of Patrick the starfish taking notes, a comment that “This will be very useful for secret future things :)”, and some tags saying something about it being a “very literal interpretation.” O.O I reblogged it with a copy of his tags and “*eyes emoji*” because I am VERY interested to see just what it is he’s got planned!
Valice Multiverse – As for over here, I had two anon asks to stick in the queue:
A) One anon asking if milk added to a bowl of cereal was a beverage, a broth, or a sauce – while Inevitable High School!Alice wondered if the anon was going to try and argue that cereal with milk was a form of soup, and Victor accidentally pictured cereal in soup and got disgusted, Smiler went to Merriam-Webster on their phone to look up some definitions...and concluded that the milk in that case is a sauce, as it fit that definition (“a liquid or semisolid food mixture used especially as a topping or ingredient for adding to or enhancing the flavor of a dish,” as per the site) the best. And thus we have all learned a Cursed Fact.
B) And another anon complaining about how the internet has ruined gross-out humor by doing things like insisting someone making fart jokes has a fetish for farts and shit like that. Cuddlepile!Alice agreed by saying sometimes a fart joke is just a fart joke...in fact, she suspects that MOST of the time it’s just a fart joke, because that’s a pretty specific fetish. :p
Whew! And now I am going to bed. Tomorrow be Smiler's birthday, so my plans include watching something The Smiler-related; listening to The Smiler-related music; either trying to figure out Tav!Smiler once and for all in BG3 or making teen!Smiler in Sims 4 and doing some dress up with them (and Victor and Alice too, of course); doing some Smiler-related writing (either starting the next chapter of "The Van Dort Vacancy" or revising one of my other VITD one-shots -- I have a couple I haven't posted that ARE from their perspective); and maybe even working in some The Smiler fanfic. Oh, and getting a picture of Smileon to post on tumblr in honor of the day. *nods* Hopefully I should be able to accomplish all that -- night all!
Work – Fairly quiet Friday to end the week – I did the GL; I finished off the roster maintenance that came with the exceptions (along with fixing a few other things I found along the way); I endured going into the kitchen to celebrate Talky Coworker’s birthday (as yes, it was also her birthday today); and I tried not to get too bored with my work or annoyed with her chatter. *sigh* At least now she’s GONE – like, yes, I know she’ll be back for visits, but I don’t have to put up with her every fucking workday.
