he… he was born to be a hero and became a villain… he was born to be a villain and became a hero… no one asked them what they wanted… they don’t even know what they want they don’t even know who they ARE…. they bring out the worst in each other…. they can only be honest with each other and they hate it love it hate it destroy it in the end…. they ruin each others lives…. they don’t regret each other…. if you even care…. I’m gonna apass out

i love and miss goofy dabihawks . mid fight in a less extreme hero/villains universe hawks making a reference to a cartoon he used to watch and dabi's like 'Okay pause i swear no one else watched that show but ME. name three characters from it?'

and hawks is like (sheathes feather blade) 'Listen the fuck up bastard.'

hawks: (enraged) u burnt that entire street down and now ur expecting me to NAME CHARACTERS from MAJ-I-NATION to PROVE im a REAL FAN??? IT WASNT EVEN GOOD

dabi: (didnt like it either) (obstinate) it deserved an oscar

hawks: THE ENTIRE STREET, DABI

dabi: ur always nagging me go nag compress its all his fault

hawks: oh with the secret fire quirk he's been hiding all along?

dabi: dont be so crabby. HE said this street looked burnable

hawks: and ofc u went 'ill hop to it!' instead of using your CRITICAL THINKING SKILLS!!!!!

dabi: (mad) i dont hop

hawks: (handcuffs him) touya todoroki you are under arrest. you have the right to remain silent. anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. you have the right to an attorney. if you cannot afford—

dabi: YOU PISS ME OFF, TAKAMI

hawks: (relentless) —an attorney, one will be provided for you. do you understand the rights i have just read to you?

dabi: (sullen) no read them again

hawks: touya t—

"-the real end for me was Ostagar. What about you, Carver? You were there. Do you feel something similar?"

"No."

"All right, then. Bit of a tit, your brother."

Yes, Aveline, Carver's a tit because he doesn't feel the same way as you do about Ostagar and being forced to flee his homeland, nor does he want to casually discuss the trauma of it in the middle of the barracks with you. Right, he's definitely the ass here 😑

so uhm i'm in the endgame portion of DA2 and...i hate it. Half of the the companions have left me, i feel bad, fucking anders is aaaa-

i could finish it tonight but i'm literally crying because of how awful this is, so i decided to stop. I'm between like...actually finishing the game or deleting this save and starting over more carefully. The only thing that's stopping me from doing the latter is that i've already come so far but goddamn this is not how i had wished to finish this game...

WIP for an Dragon Age AU thing. I have no idea when I'm going to finish this, but I low key wrote a fic about it, so...

The only thing I got out of Veilguard is frustration and AU brainrot. If the writers are going to do stupid shit to the lore, then I'm allowed to go wild with it too and have Hawke, Sten and DA2's Arishok stand in for Rook, because they would bring some much needed drama and character to the role. We are all suck in this mess, but we do it in an entertaining manner.

For reasons I just categorised all of Rob Liefeld’s DC work, and it generally falls into 3ish categories:

1. Hawk & Dove (1988 mini, 2011 run, TT v3 27-28)

2. I think Rob was contracted for a year of work but we cancelled H&D, give him Deathstroke for 5 issues (2012)

3. Spot work on mass art situations in the late 80s (Secret Origins, Who’s Who)

3 ish. Rob seems to be a friend of Jeph Loeb and gets asked by Loeb to help out on occasion (back up story of Orion 8, multi artist issue in Superman 165 for Christmas 2000, and Superman/Batman 26, aka the Sam Loeb memorial issue where everyone in existence close to the family got given a couple of pages)

I think whoever offered Rob Liefeld a year of comics work with n52 has rocks in their head, but this was in no way the worst decision anyone made during n52.

y'all seriously overestimating just how much solavellan will even matter. you know the romance in DAI was a single cutscene right? where he dumps you lol. comparatively the least content by far. and this game isn't about the inquisitor. yes it's about Solas but he may or may not have this relationship with last game's player character so, it isn't going to be given center stage. I get being annoyed with the obnoxious chronically fandom-pilled online teenagers and Disney adults, but they do this bullshit in every single space they take up. just ignore them and the rage inducing algorithms of modern social media

instead of being pissed off that one of only two vital choices is whether the Inquisitor said to redeem or stop Solas, how about be pissed off that that decision presumably is what is going to colour your Inquisitor's personality, which now I am left to assume is one of two (.5 for romanced) people, the "redeem" version being you talk soberly about Solas and say shit like "I feel responsible for him... I wish I could convince him to change his mind... He is a good person doing bad things... So sad..." and the "stop" version being you talk aggressively about Solas and say shit like "I feel slighted by him... I wish I had never allowed him access to such resources... He is a bad person doing bad things... So callous..." Like can we instead please be angry that they don't care about respecting the individuality of our different game experiences? This is not about Solas. And this is not about solavellan. It's about apparently the only thing mattering being a check in the box, when the actual experience of this *role playing game* is not universal. Not every inquisitor is going to feel about or respond to Solas in the same ways, even within the confines of solavellan, even within "stop" or "redeem". Like, I have lavellans that romanced him and would treat him kindly, I have some that would treat him bitterly, some that would treat him angrily, some that forgive and some that are furious. Do I get to experience these different possibilities? Apparently not. And it has nothing to do with solavellan. That being a part of the story is not the reason they've limited the flavours here to either one or the other. We shitting on Solas/solavellan now just bc of the most obnoxious voices you could possibly imagine? Ok cool

adult female red tailed hawk we saw while trapping! I went out with my sponsor and his old sponsor to find a bird for him (my sponsor has a bird already) and when we came up empty handed I got to watch some manning and training of my sponsor's bird.

(later that evening, of course, a passage female lands across from my sponsor's house and he does manage to trap it for his sponsor, so a bird was indeed found, but I missed it :( )

ladyhawke (foth or sharpe)??? 👀👀👀

EXCITING DOUBLE BIRD EVENT! and here we get the fun time of describing the Difference between the sharpe and foth ladyhawke stories, and also why the sharpe one has been so much easier to write.

so the film Ladyhawke, in which both these stories are based, is about a curse placed on a pair of semi-star-crossed lovers, involving day-night animal transformations that don't overlap with the other half of the duo. but a lot of Ladyhawke's humor and charm proves to come from the fact that it's told from an outside perspective — a silly fellow with a penchant for theft, prison breaks, and general mischief. and thus, it's a much smoother journey to allow the Chosen Men to scamper about low-fantasy vaguely-medievalpunk au-Spain...

“We ain’t deserters,” said Cooper, offended, and set his jaw. “We was on a mission.” “It wasn’t really a mission, you know that perfectly well,” interrupted Harris, shoving his way forward. “But it was important we found the Major! …more important than that fool’s job we were s’posed to be working on, anyway,” admitted Cooper, refusing to show any fault on his part. Sharpe stared at him in mixed confusion and dismay, and Harris determined that he’d speak his piece more fully this time. “Well, you see, it was that you up and vanished, and so we figured that we ought to go and find you.” “And it’d be helpful, wouldn’t it, if we did!” put in Perkins. “We didn’t mean to be gone long,” said Hagman, the only one out of the four of them to display even a smidgen of guilt. “And we wouldn’t have been, if he hadn’t—“ “—if you hadn’t broken into the—“ “—well, you’re the one who—“ “—you and your damned rum—“ “…and that’s how we went and got ourselves arrested,” finished Harris, as if Sharpe had been able to determine the slightest through-line of truth in the cacophony of conflicting stories. “But we got out again, as you see.” The four Chosen Men, the last remnants of Richard Sharpe’s final command, looked at their officer proudly, quite as if they expected to be congratulated for their unexcused jaunt off from the army and their trip in through one side of a prison and out the other.

...than to take that whole journey through the soggy and sorrowful perspectives of Keith 'frequently is a cat against his will' Windham and Ewen 'really would not like to be an eagle anymore' Cameron...

The next day dawns misty and damp, a clinging curtain of fog folding itself around the two travelers. The sick, dizzy feeling that comes with transformation takes far longer to leave than is typical, and so he remains prone beneath the overhang of rock as his cramped muscles slowly ease. He had cared little for where he fell as the morning’s shift took him off his feet, sprawling to lie on his side with one hand fallen in the now-cold ashes of the previous night’s fire. Despite the scrap of shelter provided by the outcropping of stone, the thick wetness of the air has already seeped into Keith’s hair and clothes, and as a tendril of wind brushes across his back, he finds himself shivering enough to set his already-strained body to aching. “If this is summer, Ardroy…” he mutters, knowing that his words will be neither finished nor heard. The mere suggestion he has put forth inspires a wholly new fear in him — where shall each of them be come winter, and will the curse still bind them together when the seasons have made their turn? Keith laughs cheerlessly, stretches out a hand to feel the rain against his palm. Damn this country, damn this war, damn whatever fate had been cruel-handed enough to serve him so poorly…. Catching his words close again, he stops himself before he can finish. One thing at least, he cannot curse, and that is Ewen Cameron.

...so yeah! you see the tonal shift between these two.
