really enjoying jadal cadash <3 still doing a lot of work re: figuring her out, but i like what i have so far

going with the canon background, so she was part of the carta, and the carta definitely did some Bad Shit when she was working with them, but she wasn't good at it. she'd let ppl go, couldn't extort anyone to save her life, that kinda thing

however, they found out that she was good at sales. she's charming, personable, and has an easygoing manner that puts ppl at ease, so she was their go-to member for making deals, building rapport, etc. over time she became quite proficient at it, building up a certain shrewdness that benefited her work. but at heart she's really quite sincere

her wide range of experience and ability to read between the lines of interactions made her an obvious candidate to send to the conclave, but obviously becoming inquisitor was Not part of the plan

building her as a specifically Black character and the lack of good in-game hairstyles is painful ahh so i'm still theorizing about what kind of style(s) she'd go for, although i think she'd switch to protective styles once she was a part of the inquisition. in the carta she had people she trusted to help her with her hair and she would wear it more intricately styled in those days, although again, i'm still working on the particulars. i just know that in her carta days it was higher maintenance and as inquisitor she shifted towards protective styles

she romances bull and obviously that's like. there's smth fun there about sizes lmao but also she just really cares about him

some little details about her:

she does not care for animals. at all. any of them.

she's a sword & shield warrior and she's good at it, although violence is far from her preference - but she's grown to accept the reality of it while part of the inquisition

she's very ???? about everyone calling her the herald/the inquisitor. she's not upset she's just confused like okay..... sure.... whatever you say i guess.......

saw bull and was like "hm. wanna climb that."

started talking to bull and was like "oh shit i actually care about him. still wanna climb him too."

then she slept with bull and was like "oh wow that was not what i was expecting. hmm. i like it tho."

pretty close with everyone - she's a people person!

she's wary about mages re: lack of exposure/lots of horror stories, but she trusts solas, dorian, and vivienne

in a similar vein, she's wary about qunari but trusted bull early on

she, like pretty much everyone, is deeply wary about spirits/demons but went the templar route (absorbing the order) and is like *points at cole* he saved me he's good he's my friend everybody be nice

hey did you know??? that if you stop stretching and maintaining mobility in your body then it goes away?? things get tight and you can't move the way that you used to??? and when you decide to try getting a stretch routine going that the first week fucking sucks because you keep going 'damn i used to be able to do this no problem' and then you have to switch gears and be kind to yourself and just focus on getting better from here instead of berating yourself for dropping the good habits in the first place??? and your body never stops aging so you gotta keep taking care of it and sometimes you gotta take care of it extra in certain areas because of things that happened when you were younger and it's boring and sometimes hurts but it's so necessary???

i am yelling this at myself right now i am going through An Experience (trying to get into a routine of body maintenance again for my physical and mental health)

i firmly hold that it's my duty as a reader to believe it when an author tells me at the beginning of the series that the dragons are gone forever and never coming back. but god it's a struggle sometimes.

main take aways from Halloween (1978) rewatch:

michael myers is canonically 21??? this bitch should be at the club

*sees tiddies* ***MURDEROUS RAMPAGE NOISES***

that's it that's the movie

outside of the fact that everyone who has sex is murdered by the narrative, this is a surprisingly chill portrayal of female sexuality? these teen girls are horny and actively enjoying Getting It On with their boytoys. no pushy boyfriends sneaking in through their bedroom windows--these ladies are taking the initiative to sneak out and GET SOME. one of them gets laid and then immediately orders her boyfriend to get her a beer. (yes she gets Slashered soon afterward, but so does the boyfriend so honestly, gender equality.) yes the Final Girl is the only one not having sex, but she's not bullied for that, nor are her friends slut shamed except possibly by being murdered by the narrative

actually the only character who is shown being morally condemned on-screen is michael myers. specifically FOR his violent overreaction to other people's sex lives. (people he is spying on). metaphorically, the villain is American Puritanism sticking its judgy nose into other people's business.

aka Michael Myers Is A Republican

but actually the real villain is the doctor. guy's a judgemental, shaming, pathologizing asshole. and he's been in charge of michael's care since he was SIX YEARS OLD? kid never had a chance. i'd go on a killing spree too

also the parents. where are the parents? it's halloween night and all the teenage girls are home babysitting their younger siblings? come to think of it, michael's first victim was his own older sister, whom he killed while she was babysitting him. teen girls are really shouldering a labour burden here. maybe parentification is the true villain

side note: mike commits his first murder wearing a clown costume...which is never referenced again? his 'iconic' costume is a generic mask and wig and jumpsuit, when we coulda had a Killer Clown Michael Myers??? travesty

i like how the Final Girl and her friend casually smoke weed in her car. yeah she's an honor student and her friend is the sheriff's daughter. yeah they smoke weed. so what it's 1978

(to reiterate, mike is 21 and should be at the club. im not saying he shouldn't be rampaging, im saying it's sad that he broke out, tasted freedom for the first time in his life, and immediately snuck back into his childhood home to go rampaging. let's have a remake where he goes to a nightclub and has a few beers. maybe some slutty dancing. then rampage)

oh no he's hot

As much as i love Dungeon Meshi, i do think that given Ryoko Kui's attention to realistic worldbuilding there ought to be a companion series called Dishes Meshi where they spend 2hrs washing and drying and packing away. Alll the goddamnfuck dishes they just made

Once and a while I see a piece of tlt fanart where harrow is really wrapped around gideon and I love that a lot. I drew myself a little bit of it as a treat today:

and then got carried away

I was way too ambitious with these poses for drawing with pen and some shitty whiteout tape
