    Alright, finished the event story and ended up bum rushing all the CM/EX/SL stages for the OP.

    Am exactly 3 prestige short of hitting max rank with the Armorless Union, which is mostly annoying cause they locked an epilogue cutscene behind it (I'm sure I can find it on youtube but it's not quite the same). My fault for not doing a single daily for two weeks I guess?

    Fun event! I've always liked the dubstep knights storylines, and this was a nice follow up.

    Started this back up and stalled out at event mission 8. I do sort of wish there were more things that were medium difficulty tower defense. Everything is either super easy or nutso hard if you don't know the meta.

    Finally decided to check out this module system that I have been steadfastly ignoring up until now.

    Damn, they really gave Phantom an 80% DP refund on retreat huh, that seems kinda nuts?

    I was able to finish everything in time and get all the medals but it sucked :/ Didn't buy everything I wanted from the store either but I bought out all the first section so whatever.

    Bum rushing the event at the last minute lit some kinda fire in me to actually progress in this game again, so I went ahead and knocked out all of chapter 9 over the past few days.

    Much more of a setup chapter story wise than I was expecting (though in retrospect, duh, obviously they needed to do a bunch of setup before just charging into catboy britain), but it worked pretty well imo. Seemed kinda like one of the early Lungmen chapters done right; similar story beats with the "investigation devolves into full blown shit show," much better pacing and writing. Still some annoying/clunky translation decisions, but at this point that's just how the game is.

    9-21 epilogue cutscene thing was hella nice
    Talulah having to deal with a Neo Reunion that understandably hates her guts is a fun dynamic; I'm glad they found something interesting to do with this character besides just having her rot in prison or instantly making her playable.

    Arknights loves teasing like 10 different competing factions lurking at the edges of the story; I'm interested in seeing how things come together once shit hits the fan in London.

    As for the stages themselves, the hoverbike and gargoyle mobs were neat, and I liked the pillar gimmick well enough. Though I embarrassingly didn't realize you were supposed to use them to knock out the 9-19 boss's shield; instead I just kind of brute forced it with SA/Chalter/Suzuran/Skalter skill 3 with Nightingale s3 to tank. It's cool though, why think when you can just unga bunga your way to victory?

    I still haven't done chapter 9. I've just been too busy with other crap. One of these days :P I'm also missing challenge modes for like the majority of chapter 8 and maybe even some of 7.

    I was out trying to take photos of the milky way but there was a really annoying glow in the sky that was washing it out. This was a bit of a surprise to me because we were in a small town away from big city lights, and I was out down by a river away from even the lights of the town, so I couldn't work out what was going on. Then I realised that even _with_ the town lights, the glow was coming from the north, but the town was to the south of me. (Sundre AB, fwiw, which is a very nice town to visit if you're in the area)

    Then I realised that the light in the sky was the _northern_ lights. And they were putting on a pretty good show, too:

    Hope like hell that the Avs can close out the series tomorrow night, just to avoid Kadri having to go back to St. Louis so soon.

    What an awful third period from the Avs. Can’t see any way the Blues don’t tie this game, especially when they pull Husso.

    Edit: And there it is. Not helping the Avs vs Second Round narrative at all.

    I finally looked up the Detroit octopus throw and it involve my homeboy OHL star Yzerman (and the reasons why I still think of it wasn't solved till now)

    Why is the NHL so fucking weird in stupid dumb ways

    Kicking call could have went either way and I would have agreed, but being up by anything hasn't meant shit all this series. Sad to see it end though.

    I was rooting for the Oilers and I would have preferred to have the series go to a possible game 6 than to have that kicking no goal upheld.

    Especially since the puck looked to already be on its way to being a goal if it never made contact with the skate.

    Or if the refs couldnt keep the goal on the scoreboard have an offset penalty against the Oilers at the first chamce.

    Nearly 10 hours until game time and I’m already nervous as hell. Especially since if the Avs manage to not shit the bed they have McDavid waiting for them.

    Would also love an appearance from regular season Rantanen.

    Edit: And on that note, JT Compher has more goals in this game than Rantanen has all playoffs.

    Pretty late on doing the new Annihilation (I put these off so hard lmao) but A10 was really not that bad at all? I could've just slapped down the super busted Operators like Chen Alter or whatever but I wanted to have a lil fun with it instead

    MULBERRY'S TIME TO SHINE j/k it was Godssenger and W that did the heavy lifting with Weedy and La Pluma holding down the fort. Mulberry was more or less just there to prevent Corruption accumulation. I did actually get to toss Lancet down in a meaningful way though, Skalter actually needed a pocket healer thinking emoji

    I was trying VERY hard to knock That One Middle channeler away and Water Cannon lacked just the right range for it, smh (it didn't matter or anything, I just didn't like losing that tug-of-war D:)

    Better find him because McDavid is absolutely licking his chops if he’s watched Kuemper the last few games.
