#Defender’s Oath

[liberalsarecool]

Rep James Talarico [D-TX] is making point after point, showing how Republicans are putting the Ten Commandments above the Constitution.

Vote the christofascist GOP out of every office.

it’s sweet that everyone treats the oath like Eru can fix it

Do theory about rootcraft in oathbound

omggg yess i've wanted to talk about this for so long

i have talked about this in this post but i wanna elaborate

rootcrafting is technically a healing magic yk so i don't think it can be used as offense until bree masters her abilities to wield her powers separately and together depending on the situations, which given her limited time slot and now the "nothing to lose everything to gain" predicament she's in, i think she'll figure this out quicker. with zoelle and eljiah on her trail, literally, she will have to control her powers with mortal threat and even though the shadow king will obviously not let her die there's no promise he'd keep her safe. so all lies on her to control her powers and kill him.

she has cut ties with arthur and her ancestors, so i believe she's gonna have a better control on her aether construct and her bloodcrafting magic, which means she will be depleted a bit more (the gray strand of hair hasn't gone unnoticed on the cover yall) so i think she will have to figure out the "healing with defending" thing because it can be hella useful. it can also help in accelerating william's powers in hours he's not with gawain's strength but yeah possibilities are there.

also we've seen rootcrafting can reverse mesmers, so if and when bree meets/finds nick's mother because there's no way she isn't introduced now, i think her memories will be returned and i also think she is a bit more vital to the whole thing because what if anna knew davis's ulterior motives?? his insistence on training nick so hard, his obsession with arthur, it is possible that she also looked through the documents or maybe she knew natasia and maybe joined the dots a bit which is why she wanted to take nick away from this, but yk she failed to. maybe the mesmer did take place drastically but when she regains her memories, because i hope she does, she might have a hard time coping up because alice only regained like two weeks of her memories right?? anna will have 7-8 years of memories of her son, so either bree is gonna fix it with her magic or anna will need time by herself but yeah i think she will regain her memories.

okay yeah i do start going all over but oh well, thanks for the asks anon!!

Hi how are you, I saw this here and thought of Jacemond and You immediately.

"actually the best ship dynamic is i would kill for you. i would kill anyone who layed a hand on you. please let me kill for you. please let me show my devotion by dirtying my hands, it's the only way i know how. Let me destroy anything that hurts you. i've hurt you too. i'm destroying myself."

I screamed internally when I read it.

Any thoughts?

yes. my thoughts are yes and Yes and also YES again just *cries screams claws hair* yes.

the thing is. shri'iia has to be super fucking terrible in early act 1. it's very important for her to make super terrible decisions and just be a general cunt so it makes her fall from grace feel even more heavy for. bc otherwise it'll feel like whatever to me... personally. but it does not feel good for me, the witness the player the person controlling this whole shebang to watch arabella get bitten by the snake then die because it just makes sense for shri'iia's character at that moment to not intervene 😭. any instance where zevlor is asking help with the tiefling refugees she's like i'm out 🏃‍♀️. she doesn't care about the tieflings. or the druids. all she cares about is getting her cure and if they can't do anything for her then she won't do anything for them.

but i hate to see it personally!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Every fic with both Zhongli and Xiao is Xiao being comforted by Zhongli, what I really need is to see Zhongli fall apart for the first time ever and Xiao helping him while internally panicking to the moon and back.

okay honestly I know everyone jokes about the ending of ernani being stupid but when you read the libretto it wasn't as dumb as it sounds at first

JK Rowling magicked up hundreds of thousands of pounds to save more than a hundred female lawyers and their families facing murder in Afghanistan. The Harry Potter author made her huge donation when Britain and America pulled out of Kabul at speed, leaving hundreds of women judges, prosecutors and defence counsel under threat from the Taliban. Along with a million dollars from businessman and philanthropist Lord Michael Hintze, plus large sums from other prominent figures and smaller donations from the public, it meant a total of 508 Afghans could be flown to safety. In a life-or-death cloak and dagger operation the female lawyers and their families had to hide in basements before they were smuggled to airports and flown to freedom.

ok forget when I said I didn't trust White feminists ; J.K Rowling the only White feminist that I trust lol

I need to show you all my Paladin, Katnip!

She has sworn Oath of Devotion. She also has some affinity toward Seluna, because when she first came to aboveground it was during the night. The moonlight bought some comfort to her and made her feel better.

"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution and laws of State of Arizona; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same and defend them against all enemies, foreign or domestic, and that I will faithfully and impartially discharge the duties... according to the best of my ability, so help me God (or so I do affirm)"

I'm becoming a hall monitor, not joining the marines

I love just abandoning Elden Ring playthroughs I'm just like "okay that's enough" and start a new game...I've been playing Elden Ring almost nonstop (with a little mass effect break) since I got it in November and it's now June. And I'm still like...hm I think I'm done with this strength/int endeavor I want to try blasphemous paladin again

[ravnloft]

anyway his name is samson o'dare and he was a farm boy devoutly following chauntea until an avatar of lathander showed up in the field one day and was all HAIL, SON OF SUN, HAND OF MY HAND, LIGHT OF MY WILL ON FAERUN, I DECREE YOU ARE MY HOLY KNIGHT ☀️🌻 so the poor kid has to deal with All That on top of second puberty

welt giving siegfried the option of plan b (abandoning welt on the moon to face sirin alone) while knowing that siegfried would literally rather die then abandon anyone while siegfried says that he regrets the choice of leaving to save theresa because now millions will die but he also would never leave theresa behind. GOD.

How about, I don’t want people to cut their palms for a blood oath: I want them to bleed into a bowl together, mix it with wine/milk/idk soup if you want, and DRINK it. As people have historically done! I want writers to not use the laziest and sloppiest stock gestures without thinking about WHY! Why is the erotic vampire drinking from the wrist and not the neck, where the pulse also pounds? Why is the savage vampire not ripping the ribcage open and going straight for the aorta? You can open up so much new territory by asking why things are or should be so, and that territory is not boring; it is beautiful and strange!

most beautiful woman in the world BTW…
