Heyyyyy.... Anyone ask for an AU with a Ruin and Eclipse relationship?

No?

Oh.

.....

...Well, I don't know where else to put these. So you're gonna have it anyway.

[galedekarios]

if you are trying to whiteknight mystra, maybe, just maybe, don't blame the child she groomed or try to argue that grooming actually exists on a spectrum

or say that gale already had a bit of an ego before he was found by elminster and chosen by mystra, i just

like idk what to tell you, but... he was around eight years old when that happened...... that'd translate to second/third grade,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

and that might have to do something with the consequent actions he took over the years and growing up into an actual adult.............

just a thought..........................................................

[tumblweeds-omegaverse]

one of my favorite things to play around with, in omegaverse? changing what something "usually" means.

family = parents and biological children in a shared household?

not any more its not!

family = a group of friends who share a house together like they have for years, even after forming partnerships with others or having kids

family = a queer platonic couple, the kids they adopted (despite being able to procreate together if they wanted to), and the neighbors that are like siblings to them

family = three generations of parents, children, siblings, aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends who might as well be family, who rally around each other in good times and bad

family = two lifelong best friends who went from playing together as kids, to raising families, to growing old, while becoming the cornerstones of their neighborhood

family = one big old polycule spread across multiple households, and the assortment of kids who have called them aunties and uncles from day one

family = a happily single person, their pets, and the network of friends that they feel safe going to whenever problems are bigger than one person should carry

family = a couple, their newborns, the siblings who help out, and the grandparents who are first in line to babysit

family = a single parent, their kids, and a very robust support network

family = a group of people who care about each other but aren't compatible when it comes to sharing a home, being very supportive - just from a distance - with or without other elements

and the fun thing is, you can slot any type of person into these setups!

make the two best friends look like the default "boy meets girl" rom-com pairing but with zero sexual tension.

make the people who sound like the most stereotypical suburban family, incredibly queer visually.

want your packs to be multi-generational households by default? go for it!

want to explore belonging beyond the nuclear family or the quest to create one? sure thing!

it gets even more interesting based on the social positions of the six sexes.

(in my head: primary sex = alpha, beta, omega. secondary sex = male, female. to keep from having to list them all, its "six sexes" but in some settings there can be more or less)

for example: what if there's a society that separates alphas and omegas as a general practice? it's the task of all omegas to run the towns and villages and see to their defense; alphas, on reaching presentation, are trained to watch over the land and tend to the region as a whole. if the two groups tend to mix mostly with those they share a classification with, how do their family groups appear?

or what if the society is arranged less like our human ones, and more like specific animal groups? if your packs operate more like a bee hive, how does that change their view of family, future generations, and group membership?

basically: there are lots of types of families, even irl, so making packs unique is more fun to me than going "parents and their kids" despite that being the most accurate to actual wolf pack structures

(though, since that structure isn't super typical to how we show families in media, i do kinda want to explore an established one! just not super interested in the "couple meets and raises their first baby" part because there's already a lot of focus on that as what "happily ever after" looks like. i want to get into how the following generation finds meaning and sets goals without doing as their parents did)

so glad bioware ignored the pesky world states, would have only been awful and horrible and not neat at all to have two wardens (rook if u play one and davrin) comment that a certain someone who bioware wants to erase from existence potentially killed an archdemon and lived, you know, while they're talking about how you always have to die when u kill one.

[gothoffspring]

me whenever i think about how the spa day refresh was over a year and a half ago and EA has probably completely abandoned the idea of giving us any future refreshes when we need them more than we need air, instead deciding to give us basic paywalled recolors

[aintitfierce]

i've always felt that employees/coworkers with kids probably do need a bit more wiggle room when it comes to attendance and such and i still feel that way

but

our one and only clinic nurse constantly having to leave early for kid-related reasons is really testing my commitment to that belief lmao

[deeproadsdarling]

I keep thinking about how it feels like the whole Red Lyrium plot thread just fizzled and died.

In Inquisition the reveal that red lyrium is blighted really felt like some kind of narrative crescendo that was going to lead to...idk what, but Something.

And then the reveal that Solas' dagger was in fact the very same red lyrium idol that Hawke and Varric found in the Deep Roads.

And then the darkspawn with the super spooky red eyes.

And the one or two references to Meredith.

But that's all it was was tripping over occasional crumbs and whatever it was leading to just wandered off a cliff and was washed out to sea.

What if I gave one or more of my female muses a d-
