#and I hope she doesn’t mind

When she’s on your mind and you just wish you could hold her and take in her scent but she’s miles away. Hundreds of miles away.

Elizabeth’s always looking at him. She can’t help it.

Do I actually think Imogen is going to turn on the party? No. I don't think it’s any more likely to happen than I did Fjord releasing Uk’otoa, or Caleb returning to Trent and the Vollstruckers.

Given the nature of the game, any character turning fully dark is unlikely, seeing as it would take them away from the party for a time or potentially even turn them into an npc, replaced by a new pc. So far the only time we've gotten close to seeing something like it happen was Yasha siding with Obann, which could only happen specifically because Ashley was gone from the table for a long time (it was also the product of mind control, not an active choice to turn dark, and as such still doesn’t really count as a pc turning on the party in my eyes).

But the possibility is there. The seeds planted. Travis has talked about how, after he threw the falchion away, he briefly considered having Fjord leave the party and retun to the coast and Uk’otoa. Liam has mentioned that, early on, Caleb returning to work for Trent was a very real possibilty. It can happen, if the players and narrative are open to it.

And now, canonically, Imogen is desperately and understandably searching for a reason not to have to fight her own mother. She is, however briefly, questioning whether the Ruby Vanguard might have a just cause. Much as she hates it, she also feels the allure of the power Ruidus gives her. Her closest ally is someone who has repeatedly assured she will stand by her no matter what she chooses, even after she voiced the possibility of letting Predathos get out. None of these parts of Imogen are evil, and all of them are understandable and deeply rooted in pain and ostracization, but they could very easily be turned into justification, were she pushed enough.

The seeds are planted. Again, I don’t think it will happen (she seems firmly against the evil plan when reminded of how evil it is), but there’s certainly nothing strange or hateful about engaging with and being interested in the darker possibilities as presented in canon. It isn't character hate to acknowledge that Imogen has the potential to go dark, much as Fjord and Caleb and Yasha. To me, it’s what makes her character interesting. I want to see her clash with the party, whether because she’s desperate to save her own mother or because she’s high off the power of Ruidus and lured in. I want to see Laudna have to choose between the world and her promise to stand by Imogen no matter what. I want to see the fallout, the slow healing and redemption and coming to terms with bad choices. I eat that shit up, and if it doesn’t happen in canon I'll probably go read some fic about it to get my fix.

the thing I’m very interested to see is Harding’s relationship to other dwarves as her weird magic manifests.

she’s a surfacer; I feel like no matter what happens, Orzammar dwarves are going to point at her as an example, saying, “this is what happens when you lose your stone sense, you basically become a human, and this is why you should stay underground because we’re safe down here”

Daily reminder that Aemond Targaryen attempted regicide and fratricide. That’s a death penalty by medieval and modern laws.

And yet the fandom won’t bat an eye because he’s a bUlLiEd kId.

hamlet update: they’ve painted red splotches on the stage in the spots where gertrude, laertes, and cladius die. the paint is there from act 1 but you don’t realize why it’s there until the characters start dropping in act 5 scene 2. something something predestination something something to be a character in a play is to be trapped in a time loop something something they’ve been dead from the beginning

beauty and beast au but Claire’s the one cursed because she’s the only one I can see literally pissing a sorceress off enough to get cursed. (If we’re going off the original movie Jim would probably offer them a hot meal and a room for the night, knowing him he’d make everything super accommodating)

This new aftg book announcement is going to kill me. How am I supposed to do anything else, be productive in any possible way, when Jean Moreau is at usc and in love with Jeremy knox and we get a whole new view that isn’t clouded by Neil’s single mindedness where we only hear about Exy and Andrew.

Yknow I think Lloyd should be good at devising plans. He went to evil school he should be good at scheming. The reason why he’s leader of the ninja is because he’s the one that makes the plans and comes up with ideas.

Hey, HOTD writers, you already have a warrior queen to be, her name is Baela Targaryen and she channels her grief and anger into fighting for her family and takes on an active role in the war despite her lack of of combat experience. Just a friendly reminder :)

[the-eclectic-wonderer]

I don’t think anything will come from this, but for your consideration, my latest brainrot:

A sort-of Grease!AU with Rose as Sandy and Blanche as Danny (or, even better, Rizzo).

That’s all. You can go.

thinking abt how the two main sibling pairs in atla are both older brother and younger sister and also in both the younger sister is shown to be more mature (generally) than the older brother. both are more powerful and have more responsibility and are still playing second fiddle to their brothers (at least in the fandom). was this supposed to happen? or is this just because the creators are men and didn’t notice 🤨
