The Twilight Realms

Sometimes I use these blogs to just write random things that I don't think anyone will care about, but I want to say anyway. This is one of those times. In the Persona series (particularly 3 and 4, I'm not sure if it shows up in the other games), a recurring phrase said by the Personas (I'll talk about that plural later...) is "I am thou, thou art I." This is actually grammatically incorrect; it should be "I am thee, thou art me." The original Japanese is "Ware wa nanji, nanji wa ware", which basically translates as "I am you, you are me" using incredibly old-fashioned pronouns. About "Personas" - The correct plural of "persona" (which means "person" in Latin) is "personae", properly pronounced "PAIR-sohn-eye" but most often pronounced "purr-SOH-nay".

I just watched a 43-minute video about The Legend of Zelda, so I thought I'd do what I did with Sonic the Hedgehog a couple of posts ago and write as many facts about the series as I can think of from memory. The phrase "It's a secret to everybody" or some variation occurs in almost every Zelda game to date. The phrase first appears in the very first game, The Legend of Zelda. Exploring the overworld map, the player may occasionally discover a cave, in which resides a Moblin, one of the game's enemies.

In the Japanese version, the original dialogue translates to "Overlook it just this once", implying that originally, he was bribing you to keep quiet about his secret hideout. There is evidence that suggests that the Forest and Water temples in Ocarina of Time were originally the Wind and Ice temples, respectively. The Forest Medallio

A glossary of terms relating to erotic hypnosis and BDSM. I've been wanting to do this for a while now, but never got around to it until now. So here we go. I'm just writing these as they come to mind, there's no particular order to them. BDSM - Often said to stand for "Bondage Dominance Sado-Masochism", formed by combining the acronyms B&D, D&S and S&M. B&D - Bondage & Dominance or Bondage & Discipline. A form of dominance in which the submissive is "punished" by being tied up or bound in some way. D&S - Dominance & Submission. Often written D/s. Denotes a relationship between two people in which one dominates the other in various ways. S&M - Sadism & Masochism, sometimes shortened to SM (Sado-Masochism).
