i just got here but sincerely what is wrong with dorian pavus. he’s a necromancer. he helped invent time travel with his phd supervisor; this is never touched upon again. he comes out to you in front of his homophobic dad by going “sex. with men. ever heard of it”. he’s canonically so good at magic that he can keep up with god in conversation about it. constantly complains about the weather and all while he has one tit out at all times. his backstory is that he’s simultaneously a delinquent and a girlboss. he’s an alcoholic. his facial hair is completely fucking indefensible. h

Because I am now fully on the boat of Emmrich playing an important role in young Dorian learning to be okay with himself, consider: Emmrich is in a relationship with a man while Dorian is at the Necropolis, and Dorian happens to see them talking between classes and then part with a brief kiss. It’s nothing dramatic, it’s a completely casual and comfortable expression of affection, but it’s the first time Dorian has seen an out queer person in public and he has a whole Ring of Keys moment about it.

God, now I’m thinking about student Dorian at the Necropolis, sneaking out at night to canoodle with another boy and getting caught by Professor Volkarin, who gives them a talking to (he’s not judging too harshly, but it’s not safe for students to wander the Necropolis unattended!) and sends them back to the dormitories.

Or at least he meant to, but young Master Pavus seems genuinely upset for some reason, which is quite unlike the usually flippant young man. He asks Emmrich if his father is going to be told about this, which has Emmrich baffled because why would a magister need to be told about his son engaging in a bit of ordinary teenage mischief?

And then Dorian finally manages to get out that no, he’s not talking about the sneaking out part. He’s afraid his father is going to be told that he was with another boy.

And the whole awful situation finally clicks into place for Emmrich, who now has to sit down with Dorian and explain that of course his father won’t be told, because there’s nothing wrong with the gender of the person he’s choosing to spend his time with. If his father takes issue with it, then his father is the one in the wrong. There is nothing wrong with Dorian being who he is.

And now Emmrich also has to pretend he can’t tell that Dorian is trying very hard not to cry, because he’s never had an adult say any of this to him before, and it’s something he’s needed to hear for so long.

mad sucks that if you choose to be a noble in BG3 that you don’t get the dialogue option when you first meet Wyll to call him out immediately. like… my guy you lived three houses down the street. we were at the same parties. what the fuck do you mean you’re the Blade of Frontiers

Wyll losing his eye at 17. Wyll banished from his home and having to navigate the wild with only one eye. Wyll having to relearn how to use his rapier after losing an eye. Wyll having to look in the mirror and see a prosthetic his abuser gave him after he lost his eye. Wyll having an infernal red eye. Wyll no longer having a brown eye.

Wyll losing his eyes.

if 3000+ devices exploded simultaneously and thousands got injured, 37+ ppl died in usa or london or france anywhere in the imperial core this website would be talking about it nonstop. my coworkers' relatives are lebanese and he hasn't been able to contact them because everyone's nervous of using anything with a lithium battery. the kids from diaspora are teaching their parents how to turn off find my phone and airdrop and other geolocating options. it's absurd to me people are carrying on like its normal, or just don't care cause c'mon ppl blow up in the middle east all the time, right?

Since I’m posting Chapter 2 tonight (and making some very spontaneous, but ultimately minor, choices), I thought everyone should see the Tav that I’ve randomly decided will be chilling in the background.

This is Andromeda, my Selǔnite Cleric Tav (She/They). She’s very sweet but takes nobody’s shit, and Shadowheart is already insane about them.
