So the trick to get you in the groove to work on on oc stuff is that first you put them in a fic for something your alredy working on and rhen let them bloom
You say that like you think I haven't tried it.
The problem is, for the way I write fanfic—I go hardcore on the canon compatibility—a really good fanfic OC has to be woven so deeply into the context of the original canon universe and canon story that you can't rip the canon out of them without undermining the whole foundation of their identity as a character. One you remove the canon, all you're left with is superficial surface details that no longer make sense without the canon you've stripped away.
For me developing the kind of OC that could stand wholly independent from the source material means a failure to write the kind of OC that I feel is appropriate for the fanfic I created the OC for. If the OC is whole and complete and fully developed and needs nothing if you remove the original canon context, then what the hell are they doing in that canon anyway? If the canon has no major impact on who they are?
#(ironically—considering the post that prompted this ask—vendor MIGHT manage to be an exception just due to the fact that—)#(—the whole scifi apocalypse going on is by necessity already pretty far removed from regular GF canon.)#(Just because we KNOW that setting is out there but it's so underexplored in canon.)#(But nevertheless the whole idea of a minor elected official who's also a vending machine who's also a planet dispensing god—)#(—is soaked in GF goofiness. for THEM to make sense outside a GF fic i'd have to invent a setting......... that's tonally just like GF.)#anonymous#ask#about my writing

it's so fuckin funny to me that one of the devs was like "oh the combat in veilguard will be ACTUALLY FUN" like... bitch i LIKED the combat in origins and 2! it was actually fun for me! the issue was that you fucking CHANGED it for inquisition, and now you're changing it again! it doesn't even feel like dragon age combat anymore! what is wrong with you
#origins was my favorite but da2 combat was still like... tolerable at least#and i still managed to enjoy it y'know#but inquisition completely dumbed down tactics to a point where i couldn't actually effectively strategise#and i fucking hate how they handled the mage skill trees#ik archery was better in 2 and inquisition than it was in origins but like#they could definitely have improved archery without taking away from the mage abilities!#“oh yeah let's completely remove the entropy/spirit/healing trees and expect everyone to be fine with it” please just go die in a hole rn#origins skill trees were my fucking favorite they were so versatile while still being well-organised and the mage abilities were the GOAT#ik some people didn't like origins combat but i think for veilguard bioware could've made like#a standard mode and an advanced mode for tactics and by default it would be set to standard but for those of us who like tactics#we could like go in and toggle the advanced mode and it would be completely separate from the difficulty settings so that if we just want t#have more control over the tactics we totally could. y'know. instead of bioware comepletely overcomplicating the combat#but then only giving us THREE (3) FUCKING SKILLS TO HAVE EQUIPPED AT ANY GIVEN TIME LIKE THE FUCKING DUMBASSES THEY ARE.#LIKE THE WHOLE CONCEPT OF VEILGUARD COMBAT HAS STRAYED SO FAR FROM DRAGON AGE COMBAT IN THE FIRST PLACE. UGH.#oh yeah that's right i got carried away but i do still need to tag this as dragon age lol#dragon age#dragon age veilguard#dragon age the veilguard#datv

everytime I open my phone to do my little qsmp social media enjoying, I am hit in the face with three (3) new weird pieces of bullshit
#like what the fuck has this year even been#we only three months in and two creators have been outright removed and the QSMP is practically on pause rn due to shattered management#nevermind the other assorted creator fuckery#WHAT DO YOU MEANNNNN THE UNION ONLY CONTACTED HIM VIA CALLOUT POST ON TWITTER#I just like minecraft and the funny little gay rolepay cubitos - why must I also go through The Horrors on a weekly basis#admingate#qsmp#four of my fav admins are gone. so far. and i am coping via joining my fellow ghosties to bully bad in hollow knight 👍

more of my rook thoughts
(with maybe some light spoilers on emmrich romance)
#once again read at your own risk of the mild spoilers#veilguard spoilers#so ever since I found one of my rook’s caretakers(?) in the necropolis I have been trying to come up with more lore#and the caretaker’s bones are clearly not qunari bc lack of horns but if I squint enough it still works#so I have removed the blight from my rook in the sense he’s not blighted but he was at risk of dying v young (at like 3/4) bc of necrosis#caretaker might have been someone close to rook’s parents who knew some mourn watcher who could help with mort’s necrosis injury#but also someone not that experienced with the necropolis itself & ended up getting lost and attacked by undead#they ultimately managed to save mort but died themselves due to undead or a fall#cue watchers finding mort all alone in a tomb and taking him in#crypt baby mort who gets easily cured of the necrosis but also ends up somehow really reckless regarding death#insert here emmrich who’s deathly afraid of dying#plus think of all the angst like I personally would feel horrible taking emmrich on missions knowing he’s scared of dying#but also emmrich is the only one he’s been able to connect to in the veilguard so far and mort loves being around him#I am yapping so much sorry I love the necromancer gays

why is it that i feel like if the cov didnt exist the crimson raiders would probably misidentify a lot of non pandoran people as bandits because the bandit designation is so weirdly arbitrary and bandits on other planets would obviously not behave the same as those on pandora. that is if the orientalised (and therefore homogenized) nature of the bandits wasnt a thing
oh, yeah absolutely. even the pandroan definition of bandit is meaningless because of how much it varies between individuals so the raiders being faced with outside populations would be. something. thank god maliwan and the cov are color coded because otherwise i think they’d get confused /j
#borderlands#crimson raiders#children of the vault#only slightly related but:#TPS scavs are probably the best look we get at non-pandoran bandits. theres a few bosses and a handful of groups if i squint but#the focus is so far removed from them its hard for me to care. or maybe i just need to replay TPS. thats also a possibility.#it manages the impossible: making me gaf about the corporations more. zarpedon is fun. the eternals are REALLY fun.#one interesting thing about them though is that they have a stronger link to dahl than pandora does. seeing as atlas never touched elpis#and they dont have a collective leader like the flynts. things seem really separated. but tech wise they have a lot more resources#than a typical pandoran bandit camp would. the dahl infrastructure is less damaged.#rambling now okok another post for another time.#^ all of this means nothing though because they serve the same exact purpose that bandits do: kill fodder for the player#wainwrightjakobshammerlock

Someone wasn’t having a good time, but her teeth were uneven and two had overgrown a lot (bc the last dentist hasn’t done that good a job…go figure). She ought be feel a lot better already, and the dentist is coming back in half a year for some more work.
#she was very well behaved though 🥰#so we’re Fjara and Tyra#Tyra needs a tooth removed next week tho#Hviða and Solita needed a double dose of stuff to calm them down#and Ienimini the mini Shetland just jetted herself forward over the dentist while still in the contraption that holds her head up#she didn’t get very far but man#barely 100kg and yet she managed to plow over two adult humans while tranquillized

to me this line doesnt just apply to vera (who passes away in the bad ending where she receives a guilty verdict; i intepret that as her committing suicide somehow) but also to thalassa... my personal interpretation is that her accident just took away her eyesight and her amnesia was a psychological response to all of her trauma, bc of how hesitant she is to try and recover her eyesight/memory while she was lamiroir + this quote from her in this same scene
so i think this whole "having something worth living for" line applies to thalassa too, bc the mason system didnt just supply vera's innocence, but also gave thalassa a reason to look forward to life (she learns tht she has two children who grew up into happy and healthy young individuals)... 🥹
#i just OHHHHH im thinking abt apollo being the one who makes all of aa4 happen#like theres a lot of factors ofc phoenix and the gramaryes and the gavin brothers and the mishams#but if apollo wasnt a defense attorney none of this would come to light#apollo who is seemingly so so far removed from this entangled plot from 7 years ago#except hes not removed from it at all... bc he is the son of trucys mother#apollo is like. phoenixs and veras and thalassas and everybodys trump card#a hidden ace up their sleeve.. an ace born from thalassa#to think her actions 20+ years ago where she tried to run away from home to live a life outside of the gramarye's shadows#ends up saving so many people including herself#its incredible 🥹🥹🥹#apollo managing to do this well thanks to his bracelet.. which his mom left in his care...#APOLLO YOU ARE SO LOVED.. ITS INTRINSIC TO UR CHARACTER DESIGN 😭😭😭#i love apollo sm and i love thalassa sm and i love AJAA SOOOO MUCHHHH

i wanna hear more ab your raz age up (mostly so I can draw ours together sffbgnv)
Ohgh I'm always willing to talk about him more I've been thinking so much about him recently, especially with how he reacts when he comes to the realization that being a Psychonaut is a lot more paper work than he would have expected it to be.
After being in the field for roughly 18+ years the awe and wonder of being a Psychonaut has eventually lost its charm. He still wouldn't be any other place though, since it is, in fact, his dream job still (to some extent) and he feels like after being there for so long he's stuck with it. He's always so buried in paperwork, always trying to sort it out in his dorm room (which at this point has become a den full of mountains made of files and inevitable papercuts)
Sure once he finally gets a mission to go on he can actually stretch his legs and do something somewhat entertaining, but even the mission work has gotten repetitive. Like, yeah alright we get it you want to take over the world, can you just skip to the part where you tell us where the bomb is please.
The downright repetition of it all has taken a toll on his childlike sense of adventure, and all the little things keep getting more and more mildly annoying by the day. When he was around 22 he decided to go to college in an attempt to break away from it for just a little bit, and that's where he and Chloe became acquainted.
Because of the predictability of it all, he's become quite fluent in snark and sarcasm, and while he still upholds the professional demeanor and performance he's always had since he was younger, he also tends to act quite nonchalant in what would be quite dire situations to most regular people. Usually shrugging off or rolling his eyes to all the empty threats the villains tend make. He's a younger sibling as well, so of course he knows a thing or two about how to push buttons and get into mischief and get away with it. While hes not as much of a wild card as Bobby or Lili, he tries to use these skills to his advantage to try and bring back some kind of thrill into his work.
All in all, he's tired. He still manages to have fun, but he's tired. Unless he can find a good case or mystery to keep him occupied for a while, he'll be sitting in his dorm sifting through paperwork while going through a pack of cigarettes. The boredom man... It wasn't until he started his counselor job at Whispering Rock that things started to get a little more interesting
#This is really long and I'm gonna make it longer in the tags teehee#He doesn't just stay locked up his room all the time#But he does spend a lot of time in there because it's become more of an office for filing storage if anything#He's still able to sleep there if he can manage removing all the paper piled onto his bed#Or if he can remember where he put his dorm key and not lock himself out again#And eventually end up sleeping on the couch in the main dorms or bunk with Lili#He also likes to spend his time with Chloe a lot#She's become one of his closest friends#She's a naturally good listener and he's a professional at small talk#He's also become quite charismatic and I'd be lying if I said all the praise he's received through the years hasn't gone to his head#At least a little bit#He's a jack of all trades when it comes to psychic abilities and the like#But because of it he feels stuck#It doesn't feel like there's really an end goal anymore#All there's left to do is rank up and become a superstar agent which he's almost ready there#But after that he's not sure what comes next#It makes him anxious to think about so he prefers not to think that far ahead anymore#This isn't all he's got going on#This doesnt even the scratch the surface if his problems with his social and romantic life#doodles rants#moots and babble#razputin aquato#Psychonauts au

#they cut the line off 20 minutes before we got there#i drove over 3 hours and missed it by 20 minutes because my stupid fucking brain cant manage time#i don't even knkw the last time i cried this hard#im just so sick of seeing so many of the same ppl getting to experience incredible things with this band -#mtv unplugged. the music video shoots. all 5 fucking small shows for some ppl. barricade and holding tyler or josh. meeting them.#- and feeling so far removed from it all#and im glad i can at least enjoy the band with my brother and mom#but it's so fucking hard to not be able to make friends through this band like so many other ppl have bc of my social anxiety and everything#i know this is probably selfish and stupid and childish and seems out of touch with real problems#but this band and this music just mean so much to me and its kinda soul-crushing to feel like its all just out of reach#okay sorry if anyone actually read any of this I'll get over it eventually#m

got a new hard drive (had to, no space left 😔), so I'm using that as a reason to completely reorganise my files (mostly shows, movies etc)
I'm having such a good time 💖
#not sarcasm! it's so fun#the only thing that sucks is that I managed to break sonarr somehow. didn't touch a thing but okay sure#I'll figure it out#I've got to wait for a couple cables that we had to order anyway before I can start moving stuff around#I've been sooo frustrated with how chaotic everything has been so this is gonna be great#but yeah I've had to delete so much stuff already (not at all because I've been downloading too much John Larroquette stuff or anything...#😬😬)#and I've been complaining about it every day so my husband bought me a new hard drive 🙈#still not enough space but it'll do for now#I always think 'oh I'm not a data hoarder! I don't have nearly as much stuff as those guys on reddit or wherever!' but like. it's not#because I don't WANT to save all of it#I only have *checks* 16 TB now with the new hard drive. I'd absolutely get a bunch of 20 TB ones if I could but no instead I spend money on#dumb shit lol#anyway yay I can stop deleting movies! very exciting#lol if anything I'm a hard drive hoarder.... I've got 7 internal ones and 3 external ones now.#yeah I just add new ones and don't remove any#I don't even wanna say it because I'll jinx it but. I've never had a hard drive fail. in over 20 years of having computers. I'm scared it's#gonna happen but 🤷 so far it hasn't lol#well one external one started failing but it went gradually not all at once. so I was able to move everything off of it first#and I mean I have backups of everything that's important! but not any of the media stuff 😬 it wouldn't be awful but it'd definitely make me#sad because I'm sure there's things there's that I couldn't find anymore#personal

sometimes a girl just has to explain her favorite book to an imaginary version of the girl she has a crush on
#sometimes I wonder how I would explain to someone why I like dalinar kholin because every time I try to explain him it's always like#oh he did a few war crimes but it's okay because he was mind controlled and also accidentally had the war crimes removed from his memory#and then went through like decades???? of character development before having the memories reintroduced#and he was completely fucked up over it#he went through the half of the redemption arc where he changes the root cause of the actions that caused a need for redemption#now he needs to deal with actually having done the war crimes#tbh so far he basically just publicly admitted to the war crimes I don't think he's actually done anything for the people of rathalas#I really hope dalinar gets to get into this stuff with the rest of the alethi because this all kind of started with#the kholin brothers uniting alethkar but in doing so instilling a culture of competition and conflict instead of cooperation#which dalinar recognizes as a problem but has never addressed as a thing that he was at least partially responsible for#okay I need to check again but I think adolin is the new kholin highprince after dalinar stepped up as king of urithiru?#I guess he's kind of changing things due to the way he's leading the coalition not as the Blackthorn but as the Bondsmith#but he still kind of has to manage the Blackthorn persona because that's what people expect from him#he's been on a constant road toward becoming who he is today and I'm so proud of him#I really hope we get more focus on him in KoWT and on his relationship with adolin bc iirc he was just knocked out for all of RoW

Ignoring the real possibility he intentionally let himself be caught from the little we know so far Luigi Mangione's case is a fascinating combination of astonishing brilliance and confusing stupidity. This young man plans and executes his assassination and escape with such a meticulous care and calmness that it's suspected that he's a professional hitman. He comes up with Riddler-sque moves like writing his manifesto poetically on the bullets and leaving his backpack behind full of Monopoly money. He carefully wears a mask to avoid being identified but removes it because a woman who was checking him into the hostel was flirting with him and wanted to see his smile. He still manages to escape the most surveilled city in the country in the midst of ongoing national manhunt only to get caught in the middle of bumfuck nowhere Pennsylvania while eating at the McDonalds. Because for some reason he had the same clothes and mask as in New York and was carrying the same gun and suppressor. And when the cops detained him he showed them the same fake id he used in New York. And oh yeah he's a frat bro gym rat who has a masters degree in computer science from Penn but reads stupid self-help books about being on the grind and is 'anti-woke' while being bisexual suffering from anxiety and wanting to end oppressive capitalism. Not even god himself could invent a person like this
#EDIT: this post got way bigger than i predicted so just clarifying no i don't automatically assume he's guilty#he's a suspect at this point and no of course i don't trust the police#also so many people in the notes saying they know guys like this okay i believe you clearly god could make a person like this#luigi mangione#.txt

Cases of Skin Rash are increasing everyday because of bacterial , fungal or viral infections , on the other sides alot of insects such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and flies, which act as vectors. What we are witnessing in shelter centers and displacement camps from the accumulation of stagnant water and inadequate management of waste and sanitation provides a fertile ground for disease vectors. Every day we see in our Medical point about 50 cases of multi-cause rash. 😥💔

Brute: ah yes I have finally gotten Softie to communicate with Queen and Alpha which has already done wonders for basically repairing the former and beginning the repairs for the latter. Maybe I can finally be free from this hell of my own creation and live with my loved ones happily -]
The evil and nefarious Beats:
#rat rambles#eternal gales#oc posting#I love past timeline beats sm shes so. <3#bestie when the two people who she destroyed herself to be able to stand by suddenly go oh yeah we were being shitty sorry lol#particularly with softie it burns because she had to smother and kill so many of her morals by staying by their side#so it feels like the rug is being pulled under her and she freaks out hard#despite the fact that shed at some point desperately wanted them to do smth like this them actually doing it feels like a personal betrayal#and for brute this is a particularly gnarly problem to try to keep from escalating#mainly because with the others even though shit is messy and complicated it ultimately could be largely helped through communication#but its that exact communication that causes beats to spiral and its rly hard for them to try to do damage control without like forcefully#seperating them the whole time which is Not feasible#and beats is a Very angry and vengeful person once you get on her shit list which is typically hard to do but this does it#which makes it hard to use memory carryover sceneanigans to help because even if brute fully explained the situation and looped enough#times to stop beats from getting flower powered shed still be fully on team lets just kill softie then#taking beats and removing her morals is a great way to get a guy who thinks murder can solve any problem#also this stuff is not at all easy to just fuck around and find out with because before Any of this other shit can happen softie needs#their character development first which is already a doozy to try and brute force#theres a reason why brute eventually said fuck it and rewound things to back when they were all kids#its not easy to be a relationship counselor to a group of teenagers who are very prone to murdering eachother and youre also a teenager#bro brute was a wrestler before all this they are Not equipt to deal with any of this#and even If they managed to get through all of that theyd still have to deal with the horrible realization that two completely separate#members of the friend group have been consistently murdering eachother every loop this whole time and now they have to deal with that#that never happens in canon ofc cause brute never got that far but I think if they did they'd just walk up to the time flower themself
