THERES ANOTHER MADOKA MOVIE COMING????

[daenystheedreamer]

god the Omeagorverse is brilliant brilliant brilliant. so good so delicious so nutritious to me. thank you thank you thank you for sharing it. i am actively considering taking pen to paper to physically draw out the family tree and draw like hearts and smiley faces and stars around the vile nasty rot :)

MWAH even though i still think its embarrassing im glad people are enjoying it<3 and oh dont worry i have a family tree of like nearly 900 characters at this point. It Is Evil For Me.... It's Terminal,... ten pages of character explanations below the cut do NOT click unless u want to walk around in my lovecraftian mind palace (shed of dumb ideas and deviantart OCs)

865 characters in what five months. God,

jae: hes maegor's firstborn with vis :3 maegor thinks he's lame and not good enough. jae is also oedipally insane about viserys because maegor was gross about it so he's got mommy issues about vis. he marries ceryse' niece as like an apology gift to the hightowers like sorry we did polygamy and disrespected you and inventented gay marriage sorry about that. he was also betrothed to aerea (shore up inheritance + appease rhaena) but viserra took aerea on the world's worst bachelorette party to valyria and only viserra returned alive :3. jae gots nutso after vis dies and starts bringing in boy youths as court favourites and maris kills him in a fit of rage due to his grossness and also maris has her own shit going on (lesbian drama, dw about it)

viserra: married into the lannisters to keep the iron throne's federal reserve in the clear and cos raising taxes spells real doom. she femdoms her husband and then kills him as a blood sacrifice to have kids (only death can pay for life). became regent for a while before house lannister kicked her out. marries into harrehal (lucamore the lusty is her hubby) kills him too. marries a couple more times, has a coupe kids, ends up trying to fly her dragon (vhagar btw) into the sun or moon or something. not 100% on her death yet.

daenys: oh poor baby girl. vis marries her into the starks to keep her safe from court + there was stark rebellion drama. has weird tension with her mother-in-law whos a bolton and her husband sucks too. she has 13 kids (9 make it to adulthood). daenys ends up killing maegor its a whole thing, hush hush. goes nutso after and she and vis die together codependently as one theyre the same person etcetc

aegon: jae's eldest, momma's boy. momma's special heir to the throne special boy. hates his twin brother aerion because aerion is daddy's favourite and jae obviously wishes aerion was heir instead. marries a lannister cousin and a velaryon who hate each other and it causes a succession crisis when he dies. he has a horrible emotionally and physically incestuous relationship with his sister helaena. aerion ends up kidnapping helaena and it causes a minor civil war where aegon and aerion both die RIP

aerion: jae's second, twin to aegon, daddy's specialist evil son. whats a little child endangerment between kids. kills the high septon when hes 14 cos the high septon was abusing helaena and gets exiled to essos at FOURTEEN cos he refused to admit why he did it (didnt wanna ruin helaena's reputation). he was just like lol #yolo he was cringe anyway. gets radicalised in essos cos why tf should cringe aegon get the throne when aerion is way cooler. kidnaps helaena but also in their minds its somewhat of a rescue cos everyone in westeros is weird about helaena. him and aegon die together :3 also he has a bastard with a martell bastard who does Rhoynish Restoration in essos with her three dragons she takes over volantis and burns the rot out of it at one point but thats not important. she's doing her own thing. ALSO HE CLAIMED BALERION that's also why he's so cunty about getting the throne he's like um you got vhagar the girl dragon and i got the cool old valyria dragon that granddaddy aegon rode so 🤨

helaena: helen of troy :3 she's one of grrms favourite historical girls; 6 year old who is breathtakingly gorgeous and everyone is weird about it. her cradle egg dragon is called urrax after the story of daeryssa and serwyn and also she befriended dreamfyre cos dreamfyre got depressed after rhaena died and started terrorising oldtown cos rhaelle was there. helaena did her horsegirl magic on dreamfyre and saved oldtown and so oldtown loves her. every man in the world wants to marry her but shes literally 13???? that does fucked up things to your psyche. has weird relationships with aegon and aerion due to them being her protectors and the only men growing up who werent weird about her but guess what babygirl. all feudal men are weird :3

daenerys: named after daenys which of course made the evil destiny stars align. she's basically the middle child so she's mostly ignored by both her parents. her dragon is called seafoam :3 she thinks both aegon and aerion are too neurotic to be king and she would be wayyy better. somewhat worships maegor cos he didnt gaf about primogeniture. gets married off to corlys velaryon (he still exists here) but she doesn't mind to much cos she likes exploring essos with corlys. best friends with aegon's velaryon wife and HATES the lannister wife soooo much. after aegon dies, viserys takes the throne which makes her sooooo fucking mad but she gets to be hand of the king with corlys. after viserys dies she and corlys swoop in and do the westerosi regency era until her grand-nephew comes of age. absentee mother because she's too busy girlbossing her way through the red keep

viserys: babyboy you were never gonna be normal with a name like that. jae is weird about him cos viserys looks exactly like his namesake he's also soft and likes non-reptillian animals and being nice to people which is not very targaryen of him. jae has him trained by his kingsguard to beat the pussy out of him but it just makes vis an even sadder kitten. has clinical depression (diagnosed at 5 years old) so cant even get angry and rage and blow up the red keep like he wishes he could. forced to marry aerion's spurned betrothed who's their distant cousin alyssa arryn (half targ herself, i had vaella survive and marry rodrik similar to daella). alyssa is crazygirl she gets radicalised by a red priestess from asshai 😈 they agree to have a sexless unconssumated marriage though. viserys gets voted king after aerion and aegon die (aegon's kids and wives have their own drama going on so a council is necessary) and he's like what if i just kill myself but he's got a slightly evil kingsguard boyfriend whos like nooo dont kill urself youre so powerful now ahaha. pretty okay king, basically lets daenerys rule cos he's too busy being depressed and wanting to khs :( poor baby. anyway alyssa hears a prophecy about TPTWP and AA and goes megacuckoo and does blood magic to have kids and that's its whole drama dw about it. he does end up getting to kill himself though good for him 😭

maegelle: poor baby. gets married off to the hightowers at FOURTEEN cos jae thinks she's weird and autistic and needs her outta the red keep. he's like dont u wanna be lady of the hightower? its so big!! and shes like no because my special interest is religion and prophetic dragon dreams. she weirds him out too much with her prophesies of his death etc. ends up achieving religious euphoria ecstasy etc after getting visions and doing some miracles and abandons her husband and daughters to live in a convent. she doesnt realise she's just trying to escape the cycle of targ torment the only way she knows how :(

anyway thats just like 9 of my guys i invented. i mostly do this so i have something for my brain to think about when im trying to go to sleep but The Thoughts are tormenting me. can you tell im a little funny in the brain. anyway if u made it this far i love u i love u i love u♡

[sharknadoslutt]

Not that I ever wanted to watch it because of the era it plays in, but what was so awful about Star Wars resistance?

Oh Okay this ask got me GOING so Welcome to my Tedtalk on my feelings on Star Wars Resistance; a story of Disappointment.

So Mr. Dave Filoni, the story telling Prince, left the show like halfway through production of the first season for other projects (For TCW season 7 and The Mandalorian). This left what was a promising show with characters Dave himself had created, in the hands of very inexperienced story board artist and writers. Personally, I think they panicked and half assed it so that Disney could make money on toys. Because.. idk. It just doesn't even come close to the emotional story arcs that TCW and Rebels gave us. and that's what Star Wars is supposed to be about. Changing for the better. Hope or some shit, am I right?

What was most disappointing in my opinion.. is that the protagonist, Kazudo Xiono, is UNBEARABLE. He is the EMBODIEMENT of privilege. This punk has had everything handed down to him from the moment he was born. He was born like 14 years after the Empire has been brought down and the New Republic reigns, so he has never known war. AND HIS DADDY IS THE SENATOR OF HOSNIAN PRIME FOR FUCKS SAKE! THE CAPITOL????? WHERE THE SENATE IS???? YOU KNOW HOW RICH THAT MUST MAKE HIs FaMiLY??? His dad literally gives him an allowance even though he is a grown ass man in the military when the show starts.

To put things into perspective for those not up to date on Sequel Era Lore and I envy you greatly tbh bcs not to be that person i do not like the sequels that's the equivalent of being the Senator of Coruscant in the Prequels!!!!

Not to mention he is a BUMBLING idiot. Like. This man has ADHD on steroids. As a person with ADHD it's.. lord, it's cringe. He is clumsy. He is loud. He says inappropriate things at the wrong time. He doesn't know how to do anything for himself. AND HE IS SUPPOSED TO BE A SPY FOR THE RESISTANCE UNDER COVER AS A MECHANIC???? HE KNOWS NOTHING ABOUT MECHANICS and really doesn't really learn anything about it by the time the show ends. And don't come at me saying this is a kids show so I cant complain about things being silly bcs I'm not the target audience. I can and I will bcs no one was NEARLY this obnoxious in TCW or Rebels. Kaz is Jarjar Level, but I ACTUALLY LIKE JARJAR!

DUDE IS A DAMN SPY HE DOESNT EVEN LIKE GO BY AN ALLIAS!!! HE DEADASS USES HIS REAL FULL NAME. BCS KAZ IS AN IDIOT.

I'm not saying he isn't a good person. Kaz is very sweet tbh. He's just an unknowing spoiled ass man-child who NEVER REALLY DEVELOPS INTO ANYTHING ELSE?????

It would be okay if he entered the show like this and exited a more mature, capable man. But he really doesn't. There are never any consequences for his actions. Ever. Other than when he becomes a spy and, again, IS USING HIS REAL LEGAL NAME as a spy for the Resistance... to avoid a scandal and to scold him for LITERALLY DESERTING THE NAVY his daddy cuts him off from his allowance. So instead of half assing his cover job as a mechanic, Kaz has to actually apply himself so he can make money for food. He doesn't improve much. His co-workers (Who are MUCH more interesting than him) constantly complain about him messing things up and making their jobs more difficult.

Man, FUCK KAZ. MY HOMIES HATE KAZ. BEING HOT CAN ONLY GET YOU SO FAR!!!!!

At the Season one finale there is a moment where you think he is finally going to grow as a man! Grow into the protagonist we deserve! Tragedy, for the first time in his life, strikes Kaz! It's during the events of episode 7, when The First Order blows up Hosnian Prime. His home planet. Where his FATHER LIVES. He has a moment of humanity and he is devastated. He almost cries. But he sucks it up to finish the mission and get his friends off base for their safety. He is a man now. and the audience feels a sense of comradery for Kaz. After all, Star Wars is about Fathers. Kaz has lost his father forever. His father was KILLED by the First Order. He now, first hand, has experienced real loss for the first time and this is going to help him grow and toughen up. he has to live on his own now. Our hero has a reason to be doing what he's doing. Fighting against the first order.

BUT NAH. FAM. then the very next fucking EPISODE YOU FIND OUT HIS DAD IS FUCKING ALIVE AND THAT HE DIDNT ACTUALLY EXPEIRENCE THE LOSS THAT HE HAD THOUGHT, AND HE GOES RIGHT BACK TO BEING HIS GOOFY ASS CHILDISH SELF. NO. I HATED THAT. THERE WAS NO REASON FOR GROWTH. MAN FUCK RESISTANCE.

FUCK. IF ANYONE DESERVED THEIR FATHER TO LIVE THROUGH A DAMN PLANETORY DESTRUCTION IT WAS MY GIRL LEIA, NOT FUCKING KAZUDO THE CLOWN XIONO. FUCK. guys I'm sorry I just really hate this god damn character.

Like. Lemme break it down, folks.

TCW started and Ahsoka enters. I HATED Ahsoka for a long time. Bcs she was young, cocky and annoying. But that was on purpose. Narratively, she experiences loss, she experiences pain and GROws as a character while navigating her Jedi life during the war. Our girl grows into the capable protagonist that we EXPECT out of a Star Wars story.

Same for Rebels. We meet Ezra, and he's not quite as annoying as Ahsoka was at first in my opinion (I cannot stress how much I did not care for Ahsoka yall) but he was young. He was childish. But he was more capable at 14 than fucking Kaz was at 20. By the end of Rebels, not only is he more wise and capable, but he is selfless. He has found his own path and it's only because of what he has gone through. His journey has made him stronger. Ezra is my favorite Star Wars journey, if I'm being honest. He is the perfect example of character development.

KAZUDO XIONO ENTERS SEASON ONE AS A 20 YEAR OLD MAN-CHILD USING DADDY'S MONEY WHO IS LOUD AND DOESNT KNOW WHEN THE STFU... AND EXITS THE FINALE... AS A LOUD MAN-CHILD WHO CAN NOW USE TOOLS. He doesn't' experience REAL FAMILIAL loss. He doesn't really experience a lot of character development at all. Things just happen around him, he helps, but he doesn't learn. He doesn't grow. I fucking hate that.

Literally every single character in the show BESIDEs Kaz is more interesting than him. and EXPEIRENCE CHARACTER GROWTH!!!

Jarek Yeager, Kaz's boss in the mechanic shop, was in the Rebellion and LOST HIS FAMILY. He is a sexy ass man too. HE starts the show not wanting to help the Resistance at all bcs he's experienced loss since his days in the Rebellion, and his heart is hard and he's comfortable. By the end of the show he is risking not just his career, but his VERY LIFE to help the Resistance.

Tam Ryvora, Kaz's co-worker. Daughter figure to Yeager and a total bad ass woman of color. She is the one on the show who experiences the most character development and struggles to find her identity while the First Order is taking over the galaxy. I LOVE her.

There are these 2 kids who are force sensitive and orphaned after Kylo Ren comits GENOCIDE on their planet. This arc set up is never fully addressed nor does it have a conclusion, like most story arcs on this show tbh.

There's a literal witch for some reason??

There's this fucking rad ass sexy Mirilian Pirate girl named Synara who FOR SOME REASON is suggested to be Kaz's love interest. Gross. Girl, you gay. Move in.

I could go on and on and on. But I wont. Fuck this show. Fuck Kaz. It literally adds NOTHING to the bigger Star Wars lore. TCW and Rebels do this beautifully and this show is a hot mess of ideas and characters that never come to a satisfying story telling conclusion.

Thanks for coming to my tedtalk, dont watch Resistance.

[tabrisfam]

You are exactly the kind of white person that the Asker on Dalishious's post is talking about, since you like both Anders and Solas and yet keep on talking about the flaws of Fenris, Sebastian and Dorian. Solas hates whole demographics doesnt he, he defends Mythal who owned slaves. Anders forces his Andrastian views onto Merrill, he downplays the suffering of elves, even he is okay with slavery. So, No you do not treat them like the same way you would treat a white character.

i like anders because i liked justice and because hes selfless and helps people and uses all his time and power to do good for the poor and persecuted, city elves included. he starts a revolution i support. he is also arrogant and ignorant to elven oppression. hes mean to merrill and he hates fenris so much hes okay with sending him back to danarius.

but he doesnt support slavery nor does he ever argue that its okay.

i like solas because i like his personality and because personally i think hes very charming. he supports and advocates for spirits and cares very deeply. he too is arrogant and stuck in his views and racist to a particular demographic. i cant say i support what hes trying to do but i understand why he does the things he does and why he thinks theyre the best solution to the worlds problems.

also, youre saying fen'harel, the guy who led the rebellion against slavery and freed slaves wherever he went, ur saying he is okay with slavery because he defended mythal? lmao

the difference is that sebastian is a full on catholic. i dont like catholics, period. i still have issues with leliana but at least she tries to make it better and is open to criticism. he also thinks hes had it as bad as the mages in the kirkwall circle. to be fair though, anders does constantly harass him in their dialogue. either way, he threatens to kill anders at the end of the game and gives hawke an ultimatum of "its either me or him" which is just pathetic. he also tries to attack kirkwall during dai simply because anders' associates might still be there. hes on the wrong side of the issue and extremely vengeful and ill be honest, i didnt even realize he was a person of color until people said he was.

im also glad gaider is out because he threatened me personally with writing a comic with bethany and sebastian adventuring together.

sebastian is also a rich dude who does fuck all, just like fenris! fenris is a dick, a dick to city elves, a dick to the dalish, a dick to the mages and anders especially. he sits in his big ass mansion and does dick and diddly all day long. he somehow easily bonds with hawke (a human. thats just shitty writing.) and is hostile to bethany from the start. he somehow hates mages but is okay with humans in general. not a single attempt at friendship from merrill is reciprocated and he instead arrogantly shoots her down each and every time and bullies her relentlessly. anders is whitesplaining at worst. fenris is just cruel with the intention of hurting her and bringing her down. i ask again, how is that an attractive trait on anyone?

and dorian, i like dorian. in the end i do like dorian. hes just not my type of guy, friend, whatever. but hes funny and friendly and genuine. i always end up befriending him because theres little we disagree on. he just doesnt care all that much about things i do care a lot about which makes him less attractive in terms of favorite character material. im still wary of people shipping pavellan because it might be a sign of them ignoring the fact that hes a wealthy tevinter human with history of slave owning and who actually does support slavery at one point. but most people do address that so its not actually an issue.

i know i tend to exaggerate in the posts (or tags) i write because explaining my feelings in full gets lenghty. so i take it back, i dont hate these three characters. i really only hate fenris and that is for the huge (and frankly uncritical) fanbase hes acquired for his broody personality and attractive fantastical appearance. sebastian is annoying at worst and dorian is overall a good guy with some shit opinions. neither of these three is a type of character i tend to like. tho i did like sasuke when i was 14.

you know who else i really really dont like? cullen! hes white! and bioware tries really hard to make me like him. but hes neither my type of character and neither is he in any shape or form a good, smart, honest person. and dalishious does a much better job at pointing out all of the reasons why one should despise cullen.

i also really dont like carver! whos also white. and also voluntarily joins the templar order even when hawke returns from the deep roads with enough fortune to instantly move up to high town. and who is a constant ass to hawke no matter what they do or say.

i cant even say i liked awakening anders because i didnt. he was sleezy and inappropriate.

im also not a huge fan of morrigan because she too is often mean for no apparent reason.

and thats about it. thanks for giving me something to do on the train tho.

[spicydadshowdown]

80s Shera Episode 1 reaction whatever under the cut... is what I would have said if I knew where to find the read more function on mobile.

1. Okay so Adora was stolen away from her mother by Hordak. He also snorts like a pug when he laughs, so theres that.

2. He-man is making spiced bread. He has a green tiger... pet? The cats voice is terrible and I hope I dont have to hear that shit constantly.

3.

😭 cute...

4. Adoras mom is called "The Sorceress"

5. TS is basically like " okay so this door that's been sitting in my dusty ass castle since forever just opened up and I need you to check it out. I have absolutely no idea where it goes or what lies beyond the door, but you should be fine. Oh yeah while you're at it can you deliver this sword to the person whose name I wont disclose to you? Thanks!" Adam rightfully gets snarky with her lmao.

6. I'm not really sure why she doesnt tell him its Adoras sword?

7. The green tigers name is Cringe (Kringe?) which fits perfectly for this abomination to God and my auditory nerves.

8. Jesus, this tiger is actually going to be Adam's companion throughout this entire journey huh? The voice actor is trying to give him this cowardly sounding voice but it's very grating to listen to. But... it is 80s shlock and honestly Catras voice is even worse. Thank God I knew what Catras voice sounded like before going into this because if I didnt know what the fuck was gonna come I would have died from the whiplash.

9. Bow and his weird... whatevers first appearance

10. WHAT IS THIS OUTFIT LMAO. Also whatever this metal..crop top this is has a little cape, but it doesnt exist in this shot.

11. He got slightly more beefy, plus the cape!

12. Heres Catra and Shadow Weaver

13. Scorpia and... that poor unfortunate monster with 4 legs on the left

14. Hordak has a more proactive role than he does in the reboot (which is something that could change over the course of its run), hes planning a trap to catch Adam.

15. Hordaks right arm turns into a fucking laser gun.

16. Glimmer is currently forming a rebellion against the horde. It's nice to see that her leadership role still carries over to the reboot.

17. Theres like... this race of diminutive purple goblins or whatever that live in the woods and I'm too fucking tired to go back and find out what they're actually called. Heres who ever the fuck this is and her talking knock off Fantasia broomstick.

18. Okay so earlier Bow and Adam got into a bar fight with some horde soldiers and now bc of them the entire village of Thaimor is gonna be enslaved by the horde. Nice job fellas.

19. Glimmer rallies her tiny rebellion and goes off to save the villagers of Thaimor! Not sure what a bunch of scraggly lookin dudes with clubs, spears and pitchforks are gonna do against heavily armed militia. But it's the thought that counts!

20. Tbh I cant describe how awful and hilarious Catras voice is, it's something you have to experience for yourself.

21. Adora finally makes an appearance and shes called " Hordaks favorite". That's honestly pretty interesting? I mean I know their dynamic will never be fully fleshed out but lol... Im... Intrigued.

22. Heres Glimmer shooting lasers out of her hands. " For Brightmoon!"

23. Catra can turn into a fucking leopard when she puts her mask on and it's the raddest shit I've ever seen.

24. Glimmer I think still has teleporting powers? Or she can at least disappear and reappear at will.

25. She ready... to Snippy...

26. Okay so I cant remember what this particular type of animation technique is called, but they're definitely drawing over recordings of people and animals moving. Because some of these shots are very fluid and ya know... this is an 80s cartoon they dont have the budget to do decent animations lol. Also sometimes the characters do that Scooby Doo run from the old SD cartoon and it's just really funny to watch.

27. Oh yeah so I almost forgot to mention that Adora is actively taking part in the village siege. Shes fighting against the rebels and doesnt feel guilty about enslaving the villagers. Interesting...

28. He man gets snuffed out when confronting Adora because he was distracted by the glowing sword ( the one he was supposed to deliver to someone ). And it ends with Adora obtaining the sword.

Honestly theres not much I can say about this? I recommend watching this cartoon if you enjoy a good 80s shlockfest... because hoo boy... it be Like That.

OK WAIT I don't know much about your inquisitor so first 3, 4, 5, 6, then 14, 28, 18, 30, 35, 37 (VERY IMPORTANT)

my longest yeah boi ever (idk i dont care about inquisition as much as i do origins. i wrote a Lot about it after i first finished the game and why i dont like it as much but that’s another story.)

ANYWAY

under the cut bc this is a LOT OF STUFF 

3. what do they look like? (add screenshots, drawings, descriptions!) eileen is about an averaged sized elf, she has the Same Vallaslin as senros, i have some shitty screenshots of when i didnt have a graphics card but i have some fair ones of her too after i got a graphics card, and also a few drawings:   

(her twin  who died at the conclave at the left, her on the right)

i mostly have older, not-so-good drawings of her that i dont like. so that’s pretty much all i feel like finding because i dont want to sort through my tabris filled art folder to find like the few drawings of her that i have shadfuishaufias

4. how did they feel about being called “the herald of andraste”? yeah not a fan. with her holding her dalish beliefs closely she doesnt like being associated with the chantry. 

5. what are their religious beliefs, if they have any? dalish?? beliefs??? is there a specific name for that???? im not sure??? 

6. what is their opinion on the mage/templar war? her twin was a mage and she sympathizes with the mages forced under chantry rule and supports the rebellion, but she knows that there can be no solution to this by fighting forever and that the chantry must be dissolved forever. 

14. which demon is most frightening to them? OH THIS IS A GOOD ASK IM GONNA STEAL THIS ONE. id have to say a pride demon. mostly because of the size factor and the power it wields, and less the #deeper meaning behind it. 

28. did they encourage cullen to continue taking lyrium, or to stop? for what reasons? no one cares about cullen and i dont care about cullen I DONT EVEN FUCKING KNOW WHERE CULLENS OFFICE OR WHATEVER IS IN INQUISITION I SERIOUSLY HAVE NO IDEA WHERE HIS ROOM IS IN SKYHOLD AND I DONT BOTHER TO FIND IT I TALKED TO HIM O N C E AND I WAS LIKE “SHUT THE FUCK UP, CULLEN” and yeah. none of my ocs care about cullen, just like me. so i guess he keeps on taking the lyrium idk not my loss binch make fuckin tabris the war commander HONESTLY MAKE. TAB. THE COMMANDER. she’d turn it down though because she’s Busy™ but one can dream.

18. upon first meeting cole, were they afraid of him? i wouldnt say afraid. wary, yes, but she trusted varric more than solas and rolled with it. cole ended up being one of her closest friends. 

30. are they an optimist, a pessimist, or neutral? neutral, honestly. she likes to take everything on a day by day basis. not that she doesnt plan for the future, but that she knows anything can change in an instant. 

35. how do they feel about “the game”? politics to her are well, more of josie’s and leliana’s thing. she doesnt particularly understand the game but she’ll take pretty much any chance to manipulate an orlesian. so she has a neutral opinion on it. sometimes it’s good sometimes it’s bullshit

37. do they like their skyhold pajamas? oh yes very important question. gonna have to say yes. she enjoys being comfortable. 

NOW IM GONNA DO ADAAR BECAUSE IM BORED 

3. what do they look like? (add screenshots, drawings, descriptions!) I WANT TO SEE MY LITTLE (not really little he’s like 6′10″) BOY

HERE

HE

COMES

he’s a very good boy 

ALSO! i know you’re going to ask how he lost his horns so im just going to tell you: he was on a mercenary mission and it went wrong and the qun found him and tried to make him into a saarebas and they cut his horns down to the nubs basically (extra harsh punishment for being tal-vashoth, i guess) but i found an interesting headcanon that qunari horns grow incredibly slowly so he’s around 25 when inquisition starts and he was around 19 when they got cut off. so he has those metal horns he puts on because he thinks he looks more intimidating, also he has a fondness for jewelry and what-not. then a mutual of mine suggested that dorian gives him different types of metallic horns with designs engraved in them, and lemme tell u. i Adore It. 

4. how did they feel about being called “the herald of andraste”? he doesnt really care. it’s just a name to him. as long as they know who he is and what’s he’s doing. he doesnt care about the chantry. not in the arrogant asshole way, but just in the uncaring shrug kind of way. or as i call it, the theon vs tab way ashfuasfhas

5. what are their religious beliefs, if they have any? he doesnt believe in any higher power. he just feels like the world wouldnt be the way it is, that if a god exists it must be one hell of a shitty one, and there’s no point in following a shitty god.

6. what is their opinion on the mage/templar war? since he’s a mage he feels strongly about the war, despite being an apostate and never walking inside a chantry or a circle tower. he knows the fighting has to stop but he knows that the chantry cant just get away with what they’re doing. he needs the mages to be free. it just feels wrong to him that he’s free and so many others suffer . he has a soft heart, if you havent picked up on it yet. 

14. which demon is most frightening to them? sloth. despair, pride, rage, and other demons may do physical damage but the idea of a sloth demon just locking you in the fade to basically rot scares the shit out of him.

i think you know what my answer is to number 28. lmao

18. upon first meeting cole, were they afraid of him? he has a fascination with spirits and trusts cole pretty much off the bat. which can be a bad move but he trusts him anyway

30. are they an optimist, a pessimist, or neutral? he was an optimist. at the beginning of inquisition he believed that everything would work out the way he thought it would. in reality, hell no. he becomes more neutral at the end of the game. he still has his big, soft, heart but it’s all been torn up to shreds time and time again when tragedy after tragedy happened to him. 

35. how do they feel about “the game”? politics arent his thing. he also isnt very popular among players of the game because he’s a huge tal-vashoth mage. i think he’s too nice to get into politics 

37. do they like their skyhold pajamas? he’d probably try to go on a mission wearing them to be honest

SORRY FOR MAKING THIS LONG AS HELL ASHFUIASHFUIASDHFASI

Drew Barrymore ‘I don’t pretend to be perfect’

Drew Barrymore is back on our screens, this time as a flesh-eating estate agent. She tells Rebecca Nicholson about the endless ups and downs of her life from child star to teen rebel, and savvy producer to business woman and explains why shell fight to the death to be happy

Drew Barrymore walks into the hotel room in Berlin flanked by assistants, caked in heavy TV make-up and wrapped in a brown fluffy jacket that makes her look like a very glamorous teddy bear. Within seconds, the entourage has disappeared, shes wiped every last scrap of foundation from her face and shes rummaging around underneath her dress, a kind of earth mother hippy smock, regretting her decision to wear tights on this sub-freezing day. Why does anyone wear pantyhose? she exclaims, barefaced, faux-exasperated, shifting in her armchair, trying to get comfortable. Theyre so fucking sadistic! Theyre not even control pants, she says, conspiratorially, but Im forcing them to be.

For a lot of women, especially women who grew up between 1982 and the early 2000s, Barrymore is a particular kind of icon. Shes the accessible rebel we all wanted to be, or be friends with. Shes the child star of ET who hit the skids early and hard, and not only survived, but went on to be one of the most popular (and bankable) female stars of the past three decades. She appeared in, and often produced, the kinds of movies that are vital viewing for teenagers, from the trashy taboo-busting rebellion of Poison Ivy, to the triumphant high school romcom Never Been Kissed, to the moody angst of Donnie Darko. Plus, in her 20s, she seemed to hang out with the best bands, go to all the best parties and always looked like she was having the time of her life. She was the manic pixie dream girl before it became a tacky indie film stereotype. The memoir she wrote in 2015 is, appropriately, called Wildflower.

She looks genuinely pleased that she holds such a place in peoples minds, and decides that if people do like her, If anyone has any goodwill towards me, careful not to sound arrogant, its because she extends goodwill to other people. Not in an annoying way, but just, like, being in peoples fucking corners. Its this combination of soft and sharp, all wrapped up in that valley girl lilt, that has carried her through life. I want people to be happy, but I know happiness has to be fought for. Its a warrior trophy. Its not hippy, she insists. Im like, fight. Fight to the death to be happy, and dont kill anyone along the way.

Were in Germany to talk about Santa Clarita Diet, the new Netflix series which has brought her back into the spotlight again at 41. Its a warm and occasionally gross 10-part comedy about Sheila and Joel, estate agents who have been together since their school days, and whose marriage is tested when the amiable Sheila develops a sudden taste for human flesh.

I stopped working to have my kids and take care of them and raise them, and so I was nervous about working again, she says. I was going through a dark time in my own life. And then I read it and I liked it. Now what am I supposed to do? I cant do this right now, its terrible timing, my whole life is falling apart. She ended up executive producing it as well as starring.

That her life was falling apart out of the spotlight was a new thing for Barrymore, who had played out most of her life in a very public sphere. No ones talking about my life. I mean, yes, I had a divorce, but even that was real quiet. She split up with actor Will Kopelman, the father of her two children, Olive, four, and Frankie, two, at the beginning of 2016, but recently posted an Instagram of him running the New York marathon; she was there, with their daughters, to support him. It was like, Oh, they didnt work out, I wonder why? Oh my God they seem like such good friends, and so amicable, I guess well stop giving a shit. I was so happy about that, she says, breezily.

In the midst of her divorce, Santa Clarita Diet was a transformative experience. Ironically, it wasnt the worst timing. It was great. It was really happy. It was a good summer. My daughters and I got to go out to California and I got three days off a week. Just as becoming a proto-zombie saves Sheila from the numbing boredom of domestic life, Barrymore went through her own kind of rejuvenation. I feel like Sheila. I feel like maybe I was dead inside, she says cheerfully, blowing her nose. I dont know. I was in a place in my life where I had gained a lot of weight, and been in a place of fear and sadness, and I felt stuck. I dont think thats so much unlike the character.

Until she took time away from acting to have kids, Barrymore had never not worked. She began her career at 11 months in an advert for dog food, quickly becoming the main breadwinner for herself and her mother, Jaid, who raised her alone. Her father John Barrymore, of the Barrymore acting dynasty The great line of loonies from which I come, as she puts it wasnt around much. Her extraordinary youth was public and well-documented. Her breakout role in ET, at five years old, was followed by an outlandish few years of childhood boozing and drug-taking, rehab and institutions, and the sense that, at 14, she was washed up and her career was over.

But it wasnt. She moved into an apartment by herself, got a job in a coffee shop, learned how to do her own laundry and, eventually, clawed her way back into the business, defeating the curse of the child actor where so many others have been lost. She has said her 20s were a kind of delayed adolescence. Now, in her 40s, shes had a lifetimes worth of parties and experiences, and says she doesnt miss it at all. I dont feel like Im not at the centre of things. I dont worry about career stuff. I dont worry about who the hottest band is or that Im not at that show that night. I dont care if the latest trend is happening and its just passing me by.

Her idea of a good time these days is taking the girls to Disney World, or setting up movie nights for the kids in my daughters class. I just watched Home Alone and all the moms and I were crying at the end. Oh my God, its so good! I appreciate it now much more than I did when I was younger.

Shes too classy to be drawn into any child actor comparisons it would be patronising, annoying, no thanks, she says, nicely but firmly but we talk more broadly about celebrity scandals. Everyone goes up and goes down. Thats life. Nobody wants all of it looked at and discussed. However, if you do put yourself out there, then you need to be prepared for that to be examined and you have to handle it to the best of your abilities. So for people who are like [she puts on a whiny voice]: Dont look at me you put yourself out there!

Is there any way to avoid being examined and discussed? Not in this day and age. You just try to manage things in the healthiest way you can. And by the way? You wont all the time. Youre gonna fuck up. So fuck up, then pick yourself back up. But just be nice and kind and humble and gracious and have a sense of humour. And dont pretend to be perfect.

Barrymore dealt with her own initial fuck-ups in an incredible and startling memoir, Little Girl Lost, which she wryly calls, The mea culpa book I wrote when I was 14. She appeared on Oprah with her mother to promote it, to go over what went wrong. You can watch it on YouTube; shes 15 going on 35. Yet the book has a cult following, in part because it makes all the partying she did as a young child sound kind of adventurous. Yeah! Its like an 80s cult tragedy book, which is super cool and wrong and fun all at the same time. Its a little riot grrrl, you know?

Theres a chapter where Barrymore describes being hauled off to an institution at her mothers behest, and shes furious at the starstruck guards. God, youve just yanked me out of my house with cuffs on, I thought, and now youre asking me what it was like to meet ET. What jerks, she writes. Even at 14, she had a disdain for celebrity. Still do, she says, today.

We meet on the afternoon of Trumps inauguration. She plans to watch it later, as shes a total news junkie, but she doesnt particularly want to talk about what she thinks of him. Im not a painter and Im not a musician and I think people dont want to hear it from actors, she says. I read this op-ed in the New York Times that was saying, just do things quietly, in your art.

Barrymore is more about the practical. During her screen break, she wrote Wildflower, which became a New York Times bestseller, and shes built a sizeable business empire, including Barrymore wines, a production company, Flower Films, and beauty brand Flower Cosmetics. All of which channel some of that free-spirit warmth into profits reports suggest shes worth $125m. Theres a line in Santa Clarita Diet where Sheila announces: I sleep two hours a night. I get so much done! It struck me that for Barrymore, spinning so many plates, that might be funny. Actually, she says, it was originally written that Sheila would use her spare time to learn French. Me, in my real life, would spend time learning French. This woman literally has a ticking clock on her mortality. Shed be studying fucking Bruce Lee moves and learning to do shit. The line was changed at Barrymores request: instead of learning a language, Sheila would get the ability to parallel park in one move. Im, like, yes! Thats practical!

Its strange to see Barrymore, who seemed to be an eternal teenager, starring as the mother of a teenager in Santa Clarita Diet, partly because her fame is life-long, and you can see interviews with her at almost every age on YouTube. But, she says, she never watches them, never goes back. Hell no. The only thing I ever think when I see myself when Im younger, if Im on a talk show and Im stuck there having to watch clips, is that I was so much more brassy when I was young. Im like: Where do you get the balls, kid?

She says it as if those balls have disappeared with age. She claims shes much more polite now. Sarcastic, but polite. And worse still, she tries to say shes newly dull. In my life Im just so quiet and boring, she declares, not entirely convincingly. This is Drew Barrymore, after all, who talks with the hunger of someone who will always be on the lookout for something new, whether thats being a mother, a businesswoman, or playing a friendly estate agent who kills and eats bad people. I am pretty boring, she insists. I tell her I dont believe it. She smiles slyly, and leans in. Theres a rebel in her still. Im not sure I believe it either.

Santa Clarita Diet launches on Netflix on 3 February
