put capitalism in the lake!
I am a tired bean this week because I've been awake since 5am this morning, so that's nice. I feel more awake now I've had some coffee, but generally: uuuugggggghhhh.
I should be working today, but I swapped today for this Friday just gone with my boss, as she wanted to swap for personal reasons. So I did! Friday Saturday Sunday is not fun, but I feel less knackered than I did the last time I had a longer week, so that's good news. (I think nine tenths of it was going from sitting around on my own for three months to suddenly having to be on my feet and interacting with people all day).

In Persona 5, I am at the end of September/in the fifth dungeon.
I like everybody in this game except Akechi! Well, I'd like Morgana better if he weren't so gross about Ann. Anyway, it's nice to play a Persona where I like most of the characters (sorry to everyone who likes 4, but...I dislike most of the cast, and I'm sad, because I really wanted to like them all. Kanji, Rise, Margaret, and Nanako are about the only main cast characters I like).
Ann and Yusuke are my faves at the moment. Makoto has grown on me a bit, and I'm p sure I like Haru, even though I thought she'd irritate me.
I have a plot point that irks me, which is the whole "let's 'help' Futaba act like a 'normal' person!" and how everyone except Sojiro describes her as difficult and weird. When she's none of these things, she's just different to everyone else.
It made me feel massively uncomfortable because I used to get treated as weird by my peers when I was a teenager and "helpful" attempts were made to make me be "normal". But also, like, if Futaba is supposed to be on the autistic spectrum, it's doubly not okay! I don't know what word of god is on that, but I've read that her English VA says she sees her that way and played her accordingly. But also you can't/shouldn't do that to someone regardless of whether they're autistic or not.
I definitely didn't like the making her do stuff she clearly felt unhappy doing, although this seems to be a running theme, given Ann got the same treatment earlier in the game.
Other than that, really enjoying the Quality of Life improvements this has over P4/and definitely 3! I'd like more SP healing items, although I've unlocked the regen items, so it's not as bad but eh. Healing points like in previous games would have been nice! (Though the safe rooms are *chef's kiss*. They just need a healer, like the fox from 4, or Trish from 2. I wouldn't even mind paying them, I had like, 200,000 yen before I did weapon upgrades!)
