Sometimes, a family is just an emo goth, an angry space frog, a purple misandrist, a vampire twink, an autistic magician, a golden retriever butch, a half-devil fencer, a furry, a folklore grandma, a bald guy and his hamster, a random adventurer with a weird name, and a psychotic amnesiac with a migraine.

Darling literally went "oops, hope no one saw that"

Maybe this is a stupid question, but Does Alcina really trips on furniture because of her height? How many furniture on her castle are out of place that implied she maybe trips with them?

From what I recall, we only have this moment from the Maiden demo where it is implied that she accidentally slammed against the armor. If anyone has noticed any misalignments, feel free to share!

I'm actually liking Caitlyn's character arc in season 2. From a writing perspective, she's breaking the stereotype of the "boring, privileged heir who has a naive ideal of doing good for a corrupted society" -- the type of characters who oftentimes get writers stuck in a deadend alleyway and end up as the shallow ones without much depth for development nor potential. They made it so that she isn't perfect, she isn't morally superior, she lost her rationale and the one thing she once thought she was fighting for. It sculpts her into someone who feels real, with conflicts and the accumulated biases that she has been raised in, directly adressing the fundamental gap that has always existed between her and Vi.

Because sometimes prejudice is subconscious, a subtle influence under the environment, and it isn't easily erased even when you understand the morality behind it. And sympathy becomes fragile and easily forgettable once you have deemed its recipient unsalvageable.

After falling into the rage and grief, experiencing the redemption and the climb back onto where she thought she once stood, only then will the righteousness evolve into something real and more genuine, tested by the bitterness of reality, instead of it always remainig as an imagination of all sunshines and rainbows.

Lesbians will have a situationship start and end within a day, and then one of them will end up as a dictator. Never trust gays with fucking anything

Cait out there beating the allegations of being the one with the least character development after the first season. Badassery behavior ngl.

We're eating well this autumn, but damn do I need therapy after all the agonising angst they had to put me through.

I said I would start the parallels—

More to come later tonight ✨

I've never noticed her short hair peeking out from under the habit until I actually got the game and examined her in-game model, which admittedly is just yesterday (ik, ik. took me forever), but omg queen, slay.

Some Blender screenshots for anyone in need of a reference for Miranda's face/hairstyle ;)

It’s funny to me that (at least for me idk if this is always the case) the timing of Shadowheart dying her hair in camp corresponds with the same night the githyanki attack camp and you learn who the dream visitor is and all that

Like imagine Shadowheart in fucking camp trying to discretely bleach her hair with some berries and herbs she scavenged because you are NOT near civilization and she’s like trying to fix her patchy ass dye job before everyone wakes up and while she’s simultaneously trying to give herself layers or some shit and then the Absolute just starts blasting her brain and random githyanki attack the camp?

Like imagine mid revelation of this whole thing. You’re in the astral plane. Orpheaus is there. The Emperor is there. Shadowheart is there desperately hoping no one comments on her terrible looking roots and her crooked bangs

After hoarding all my WIPs in my documents for ages, I have finally decided to dig them out from underneath all that accumulated dust and post them on ao3. Just gonna leave this here while I go back into my introvert cave.

Okaythanksbye-

The RE8 × BG3 crossover has returned

It's time for our lovely House Beneviento to shine

Behold: Lady Donna Beneviento in Baldur's Gate 3

She is a half-drow (they are usually discriminated against in the lore of DnD for their bloodline, and thus most of them prefer solitude) wild magic sorcerer (to reflect the unpredictable nature of her powers in RE8)

To better match her theme, her powers are focused on illusionary, psychic, and necrotic magic, with the occasional random effects caused by her wild magic surge that might unintentionally add to the chaos

And of course, we cannot go without her emotional support doll gnome, Angie

She is a forest gnome (she talks to all the critters in my head canon) shadow monk. Imagine a 4 feet tall, cackling little gremlin teleporting all over the battlefield, kicking people in the shins and stabbing them on the toes (she gets along so well with Shovel). Terrifying, right?

She gets into all sorts of shenanigans, like doodling a goofy face onto the portrait of an undying lich queen, but shhh, nobody snitch on her

Look at that little face, she's so proud of herself

These two shall conquer the world with their autistic social anxiety & ADHD chaotic energy combo

And as per usual, group photo!

yes, I put Astarion in a trench coat because he shares the same voice actor as Heisinberg, so just a tiny reference to that

Prev: House Dimitrescu in Baldur's Gate 3

[alfynnlin]

Got a BG3 A.U. for the RE8 women (also counts as DnD A.U.?)

Had to make do with modded presets but I've tried to pick out the ones that have similar vibes (I need a mod that adds their face models into BG3 lol)

May I present: Lady Alcina Dimitrescu in Baldur's Gate 3

I made her into a drow (she fits right in with the matriarchal culture) thrower barbarian (an elegant one, mind you -- it's for the furniture throwing), and if we use enlarge spell or elixir of colossus on her, she'd look much closer to her canonical height

I also made the Dimi daughters with hirelings, so here they are as well

Bela, gloomstalker assassin

She gives off the vibe of an elegant, efficient archer. Imagine her rolling her eyes while she cleans up after her sisters by finishing an enemy off from a distance

Cassandra, battlemaster fighter

Canonically, she hangs out in the armory and it's also implied that she's the best hunter/fighter among the three

Daniela, dual-wield swordsbard

I mean, she lingers at the library and has the flirtiest lines. All that, mixed with some martial skills, I think college of swords bard fits her quite well

And of course, Lady D's dream guardian, Miranda

The mothers are mothering

Look at these queens, casually chilling and serving (don't mind Orin, she's just having an eepy)

Miss D and the Pall Boys?

How about Miss D and her Slaying Girlsquad?

A shame women aren't real

But the gay obsession certainly is

Next up, Donna and Angie?
