You sayin' I like dubs?!?
tales of the abyss is a game where literally everything bad that happens only happens because every single character can't tell people important information

it's just people saying "it's nothing" and then something awful happens as a result over and over for 70 hours

MIEU

FIRE

Mieu is the only character that moves during cutscenes in tales of the abyss.

There is some very sensual touching going on in the cutscene there. i don't actually think it means anything sexual but it's cool how it contrasts with modern ideas of what bad ass stuff should be like. It even seems authentic to some kind of chivalric masculine touching from a tyme longe gone

this reminds me a lot of l ron hubbard's writing style
