celebrating the first time i have stable internet in days by bringing you this

[video description: scenes of Lilith and Mary from Warrior Nun set to the song “Ain’t Nobody Gonna Honour Kill My Sister (But Me)” from We Are Lady Parts. The line about honour killing has been cut out of respect for the different context and positionality of the shows. Original song can be found here! /end description]

just burned my “get off the road i’m learning to drive” playlist onto cd so i can pop that in the van next time my dad takes me out for a driving lesson

[waltwhitmansbeard]

time for part 3 babey

what cars would the bells hells drive?

orym: orym does a ton of research into vehicles before buying one, bc he wants the top safety features but also enough room for his friends but also not something so big that he becomes a hazard on the road but also everyone's phone needs to pair so they all can take turns being the dj but also he'd like a hybrid so it's good for the environment. he ends up with a sensible suv (green, ofc) that he takes very good care of, except for the glovebox, which belongs to fearne and quite frankly it's none of his business what's in there.*

fcg: i'm so sorry but they are a tesla bro, just an absolute elon musk fanrobot. he's convinced ai is going to save the world and if a few errant children need to be run over to get us there, well, then, where were their parents?

imogen: yes, imogen has a massive, heavy-duty pick-up that she uses to haul her horse trailer, but her everyday car is an old, slightly rusted chevy, one from the 50s with the wooden bars along the sides of the bed. it's red and the fender has seen better days but imogen does enough work on it to keep it running.

laudna: laudna has the bike that margaret hamilton uses at the beginning of the wizard of oz. let me be clear. she doesn't have a bike like the one margaret hamilton uses. she has the bike. no one knows how she got it, or how much it cost, and she can barely pedal it bc she has no leg muscles to speak of, but the children whisper whenever she passes on the absolutely ancient thing.

chet: an olllllllllllllllllllld chrysler town & country, one with wood paneling, of course, real wood, not that vinyl shit. he keeps it in excellent condition by not actually driving it anywhere but instead bumming rides from his friends. one time dorian looked at it and chetney threatened to gouge his eyes out.

fearne: fearne doesn't drive. fearne is driven.**

ashton: ashton doesn't drive. ashton despises cars and car culture. this is a public transport bitch. they know every single bus driver, their names, their routes, how long they've been driving. he knows the turnstiles you can jump and the ones that are monitored. they'll tell you the stories of all the graffiti in the subway system, and only half of them are made up, but you'll never figure out which half.

dorian: he tries to pretend he doesn't have far and away the nicest car of all the hells, but there's only so much you can do to hide a bright blue camaro. he likes to go fast and make a lot of noise, which is helpful, bc he is literally never on time. he pays the price whenever he shows up twenty minutes late with an obnoxious starbucks order in his hand by being absolutely razzed by the rest of his friends.

(vox machina) (mighty nein) *the glovebox is fearne's bc shotgun is always fearne's. even if fearne isn't in the car. the seat next to orym belongs to fearne at all times in all situations. no one else may sit there under penalty of fearne's big, sad eyes and incredible tits. **but fr can you imagine fearne behind the wheel of a car?? i'm an excellent driver!! she insists as she knocks over her third mailbox of the day. just an absolute menace. could NEVER get insurance. orym let her drive ONCE and immediately went to update his will.

[loveofdetail]

I'm honestly still really proud of that Touch of the Stranger Review fic. there were a lot of moving pieces!

It was an absolute blast to get to write a fake review of a fake ero-RPG which is itself a reference to in-world Corvo/Outsider fic from Dishonored. I love metafiction but hoo babey those are some metafictions inside of metafictions.

The most important challenge was that I needed to get across to the reader (at least, a reader who is familiar with Deathloop) just how much the game was really about Charlie and Fia's relationship, and make it obvious Fia worked on the game with him... even though the in-world reviewer has no idea Fia exists.

I also needed to give people the idea that the reviewer was pretty full of shit and that this is NOT a charitable or reliable review of this non-existent game! While still leaving room for the fact that Charlie is up his own ass with his auteur schtick and parts of this game probably are insufferable.

And the thing is I don't actually read a lot of video game reviews? OR play a lot of RPGs. So one of my writing sessions was actually just spent shotgunning RPG reviews from as wide a variety of publications and authors as I could, in order to get ideas about tone and what needed to be included.

And THEN I came to the conclusion that I could not write a convincing fake review unless I actually had a pretty detailed idea of what this fake game played like. So I spent another writing session just stream of consciousness brainstorming the whole plot and mechanics of Touch of the Stranger. This was probably about the same wordcount as the final fic even though very little of it ended up getting explicitly mentioned. But still I don't think I could have written the fic without this pre-process.

And then last but not least it needed to fit into Dishonored setting, but without going too heavy-handed on the actual Dishonored references.

There was a point halfway through writing it where I really genuinely worried it was simply not going to come together. And I was writing to a deadline too. But now more than a year out I re-read it like, Whoa... I actually did a really good job??? on this challenging task which I assigned to myself

also hee hee hoo hoo, rating: 6.9

fashion aesthetics - feng xin

describe your muse’s aesthetic in five words or less.

frat boy shotgunning four loko

does your muse spend a lot of time on their outfit and appearance? how long do they spend getting ready in the morning?

literally no time at all. the man grabs the first clothes he finds that sort of match and throws his hair up in a messy bun (y/n core babey) or a ponytail if he's really lazy that day

does your muse consider the way they dress to be trendy? would other people agree

not at all. he dresses comfortably and is well aware that it's not at all trendy, but he doesn't really care much.

how often do they buy new clothes? are they the type to keep a outfit for years or replace it after one wear?

almost never. he's been wearing the same hoodie for like six months and only replaces things once they need to be fixed, and even now that's rare because mu qing passive aggressively fixes his clothes for him

is your muse the type to accessorize? how much?

not at all. he's not a big jewelry guy, unless you managed to get something with sentimental value, which he hasn't had since xianle so

how much time do they spend on skin care/makeup/grooming?

like.... five minutes, ten tops. the man uses 3 in 1 for his entire body and like... maybe some moisturizer or sunscreen

if money and societal expectations were not a concern would your muse dress differently than they currently do? if so, how?

honestly, no. he's consistently ready to jump into action, and his clothes definitely reflect that. he could absolutely afford nicer clothes, he just... doesn't really care to do so. he's always dressed casually, at least by like... royal bodyguard and martial god standards, and that's likely never going to change

would your muse wear the same outfit two days in a row if they knew they wouldn’t run into any of the same people?

...yes. yes he would, even if he did know he would run into the same people, because he honestly just wears the first thing he grabs and i don't think he would even notice if he was wearing the same thing two days in a row

have they started dressing differently since arriving in washington? was the transition difficult? do they prefer the clothes here or back home? if your character is unaware feel free to answer as if they are aware.

sort of. the vibes are the same, just updated to a more modern style over what the fashion was back home. he doesn't really care enough about clothing to struggle transitioning or have a preference, so he's pretty happy with the current clothing he has

[gmanwhore]

Yeah i can imagine!! I just realized that we lack an Engineer... They don't deserve it/J

Nah yeah. Honestly i am imagining her name to be something like Shotgun. She is... Much more open about how insane she is than Gunpowder. If Gunpowder has a smile on her face all the time but you can kinda see the screws a bit loose, Shotgun got now screws babey. She also makes weapons for her team and has the bad habit of testing them on actual misions. Surprisingly not as much of a Battle Engie as Gunpowder and really just likes to plant Sentries everywhere-B. Jess

I think she should go hog wild. All the time.

[gender-premium-tm]

i’m here to talk about my ocs today babey

ANYWAYS this post is about damian, my catguy bartender/owner in his forties who is eternally done with life

one of my favorite parts about damian’s character is the fact that he’s surrounded by all these people with fantastical powers and magic at their fingertips—so you’d expect him to have something similar, right? at the very least he probably fights like a cat, claws and teeth and all?

uh.

damian likes being unpredictable, and. well.

nobody expects the shotgun.

people have tried to set up magic blockers to fight damian when he’s “powerless,” and yeah, he can use magic if needed, but he doesn’t use it for combat, just to clean stuff or find something quickly, little chores like that. they build these elaborate strings of power and weave them so specifically so that they’re not blocked but damian is—and then they get shot. a simple solution to a problem made too complex by those trying to solve it.

and i love that about him!

sure it’s fun to play with the magic system of my world, but it’s also really refreshing to look at scenarios where others used big flashy magic and think “how would damian, who uses magic for mundane chores and prefers a get-your-hands-dirty method of dealing with shit, approach this? would he concede to the others because he can’t see a non-magical solution? or would he point out something that allows someone with no magic to manipulate the scenario in their favor that the others didn’t see?”

it just amazes me every time that i can just. make a guy. and put them into situations and make stories out of them!! i can pour as much detail as i want into these silly little bitches and nobody can stop me

🎵asa also

YEAH BABEY YOU KNOW IT! This middle-aged father of three (and also three twenty-somethings he found in the trenches) can be SO angel with a shotgun. He has his Principles and his Guy (interchangeable. His moral compass just points towards Alan) and that’s all he needs to know! The lyrics pretty much sum it up.

They say before you start a war

You better know what you're fighting for

Well baby, you are all that I adore

If love is what you need, a soldier I will be

I'm an angel with a shotgun

Fighting til' the wars won

I don't care if heaven won't take me back

I'll throw away my faith, babe, just to keep you safe

Don't you know you're everything I have?
