This right here. ALL of this... I mean, Alistair is sweet and lovely... then he turns into the biggest, rage-quitting piss baby and it sucks. Especially for a Cousland Warden. Seriously bro? You knew Duncan for all of 6 months. I can recruit and tolerate Loghain even when he was an accessory after the fact to the slaughter of my entire family and you’re going to choose this hill to die on?

10 years ago i was like "i want to explore all the options in dragon age!!" but now i'm like "the only thing that will fill the void in my heart is recruiting loghain and making sure he survives, actually"

[mikalero]

Almost all of them, frankly. Letant, Vreenak, Parem, Bochra...

My biggest Star Trek related pet peeve?

Absolutely fabulous characters being introduced and featuring in one episode only, never to be seen again. I'm not just talking about Solok.

I might have another one-episode-only crush.

It might be a Romulan. (//ω//)

[mikalero]

Wow everyone is going through it. Hold my hand

[mikalero]

@kittiofdoom - he TOTALLY can be redeemed, he just needs to be dragged into accepting it kicking and screaming. :-D

You guys went all in on becoming better people and you brought me along for the ride.

Oh hai, it me.

Fic Snippet Tag Game

“Outside the unfortunate and undeniable realities of my biology, Captain, I do not have a 'human' perspective as you put it, because I am no more human than you are.”

She continued after a pause when Solok did not speak - because if the blank expression on his face were any indication - she had in fact, rendered him speechless with such blunt, Vulcan directness.

“This is in fact, not the first time I have been regarded as a potential subject to be studied, nor will it be the last. It is an occurrence I have encountered at every stage of my life, and in every direction I have turned. And I find it grows quite tiresome. Your academic publications to date are thorough, enlightening, and comprehensive. However, if you mean to write another... then with all due respect, Captain Solok, I do not wish to be included, or involved.”

From an old, old RP blog about 7 years ago. THAT WAS TOTAL BULLSHIT AND I’M STILL MAD ABOUT IT.

🔥

Just call me Salt Shaker 

Why does no one talk about the fact that Greagoir ran pastmagelings to get to the outer door of Kinloch Hold? He says that he was right outside theEnchanter meeting when all hell broke loose with Uldred. The apprenticequarters are literally right by the main door and yet there isn’t a singleapprentice/mageling with the Templars.

His job is to be a guardian to mages, yet he abandoned themand shut the door in the face of children and tranquil. And nobody says a wordabout it.  

[mikalero]

Yes. Absolutely. My Warden was female Cousland - but if I had written the story, she would have killed every Templar in Ferelden before letting them take Anders away. And she never would have made him give up Ser Pounce.

BEAUTIFUL work.

“No. Anders stays with us.”

Another repaint of one of my inktober pieces! I really liked this one so I decided to turn it into a full scene 🥰

So acknowledging that lesbians exist is woke now? Did they NOT watch DS9 and the episode where Jadzia kissed another Trill woman?

My parents just stopped watching ST:PIC over Seven calling Raffi her girlfriend to bluff a security guard. 😂 “When did Star Trek get woke??” Babe, it’s always been political. Y’all literally grew up with Star Trek having the first televised interracial kiss. If it offends you to see lesbians or to see social problems highlighted that need to be changed, then Star Trek really ain’t the show for you. Granted, I’m not a fan of ST:PIC’s writing (from what I’ve seen so far), but I’m all for Seven kissing girls and for there being social issues raised.

[mikalero]

And it was such a beautiful one shot as well. And Maroon? OMG, I am so in love. Poor, poor Lojal. The misunderstanding is painful, but I’m not surprised. So looking forward to that being corrected in the future.

It’s come to my attention that there is not one single Syvar tag on the entire archive???? This is so blasphemous I have to postpone my second chapter of Maroon until I’ve finished a one shot-

Fanfiction Ask 👀

G: Do you write your story from start to finish, or do you write the scenes out of order?

L: How many times do you usually revise your fic/chapter before posting?

O: How do you begin a story–with the plot, or the characters?

S: Any fandom tropes you can’t resist?

T: Any fandom tropes you can’t stand?

💚

Oh shit. um I realize I did this completely wrong. G.) I write them out of order. Sometimes I get inspiration for a scene or dialogue snippet that’s more than halfway through what the narrative ends up being, and that’s where I start working from. L.) I edit and revise as I go - it’s one of the reasons I take so long to finish chapters. I will usually ask a friend to read through it once and give me any feedback or pick out any mistakes I missed, but that’s it. O.) I begin with character concepts. Plots get built out from there, and often end up helping inform even more thorough fleshing out of the characters. S.) Pregnancy and kids. I *LOVE* my blorbos having babies. T.) Modern/Our World AUs and Real Person fics. The former just bore me, and the latter make me queasy.
