Come back here, man, gimme my comment

Hello my little demons! It is I, Plastic Tree up on Melancholy Hill! I have returned from my recent hiatus to bring you what you all love. My new theme is a reflection of my recent found fondness forShin Megami Tensei: Lucifer’s Call. I was originally not a fan of the game, and preferredDigital Devil Saga‘s set up overLucifer‘s more environmental-based storytelling.BloodborneandDemon’s Soulsstarted to change my perspective on that kind of game, and made me seeLucifer’s Call feat. Dante from the Devil May Cry™Seriesin a new light!

Perro is out this week so the big tree is stepping in! His spirit is still with us through the delightful header and title cards he’s made for me.
