You Shall Not Game

ok so in college i signed up for a watercolor class because someone i had a crush on was taking it. i had never painted anything in my life. first day the teacher goes "let the water do the work" and i nodded like i knew what that meant i painted a mountain. it looked like a bruise. then i painted a river and it bled into the mountain so now it was a wet bruise. my crush looked over and said "oh that's... brave" and i have thought about that word roughly once a week since dropped the class two weeks later. i still have the bruise painting in a drawer somewhere anyway i found this game on wavedash called Niwairo by youshallnotgame where you just swipe a few watercolor brushes around and it turns into a whole japanese landscape. hills, waterfalls, cherry blossoms, little villagers moving in. i painted a river and it actually went DOWN the hill like a real river. first time in my life the water did the work no goals, no timer, nobody calling my art brave. sat there for like an hour building a tiny village. i'm healed
