When you spend 20 years attempting to bring down the child slavery, murdering, human trafficking exploitation ring that stole your childhood, murdered your friends, and killed countless innocents only to have them rebrand as 'Noble Freedom Fighters™' off-screen.
#rip zevran's crusade against the crows >:(#when people said they wanted to be crows they didn't want devs to make the faction nice so we won't feel bad or conflicted about it#people wanted to be conflicted! they wanted to see the faction in all its glitz and glamour - then see what it hid beneath all the mystique#choose to play as a crow that loves the life/hates it/is undecided/etc...#but i'm sorry i forgot that this game doesn't want to do 'role play' options my bad#i will not stand for this zevran erasure!!!#yes i've seen the codex entry that goes on about 'other crows are joining zevran' blah blah#have the antivan crows faced with a threat that challenged their outlook on why they fight#have the talons be the one to sell out antiva! in exchange for allowing their business to resume (have it be a sneaky reveal!!!)#their work has purpose and order to it so the antaam might agree! they're like 'babys first ben-hassrath!'#have Crows look around at their own home - see the vendor they bought fruit from disappear or the smiling old lady now cowed by grief#then have them decide to DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT#have a schism! have Zevran take in Crows who are unhappy - have them realize how shit the organization is!#boom! somewhat-noble freedom fighters! (they're doing their best okay)#or they can be 'idealists' from the get-go - thanks cursed AMA thread#my art <3#dragon age#datv critical#datv spoilers#dragon age the veilguard#zevran arainai

Thinking about post game Illario again and the mental state he must be in. He's literally lost everything.
Things will never be the same between him and Lucanis. Even if they do get better someday, they can never be the same.
He is never going to be First Talon now. He's actually gone down the ladder, which I don't think he even considered as a possibility, since he figured it was a success or death kind of deal. The man who loves being admired and adored now has to face a future full of disdain and hatred.
He has to watch Lucanis become First Talon. Something he wanted (needed). And worse, something he knows Lucanis doesn't want. He has to watch Lucanis continue to be suffocated under Caterina's grasp and the weight of her expectations until it kills him. He's back to having to watch and wait for Lucanis to die. He was able to justify killing Lucanis in part to prevent this exact fate and now he has even less power to stop it than he did before.
Where do you even go from there?
#Not to mention that I think his life was pretty empty BEFORE all of this went down#Even Lucanis never mentions anything Illario likes besides his image and that's hardly a personal hobby#you could even argue that's just a survival tool for him it's no different than Lucanis and his knives#Illario Dellamorte#Does he have even one thing for himself?#Has he ever?#His only personal goals and desires seem to be living a comfortable life#(his likes include being First Talon and luxuries like fancy silk gloves nice clothes good wine etc)#(And 'debauchery' but that's just the unhealthy coping mechanisms talking)#He doesn't have any friends. Or hobbies. Or any general interests at all that we know about?#Lucanis knits and brews coffee and cooks and likes wyverns.#Even as children all we get is Illario listening to Lucanis talk about wyverns and going wyvern hunting with Lucanis#Everything about Illario is actually about either Lucanis or Caterina#Tbh I think getting knocked on his ass and having everything taken away from him could be the best thing to happen to him#If he can pick himself up and go on from here#He was probably never going to have the freedom to develop a sense of self as First Talon either#Use all this new free time to get a hobby Illario

Honestly I think it'd be funny if each time Bruce returns from time or interdimensional adventures he just keeps coming back with more kids. Like DC, you're telling me he wouldn't see sad child or child on a dying world and not take them home to be bundled up and given Alfred's cookies?
#batman#batman au#batdad#batman adopts all au#dcu#dc#batman has adopted alien starfish u think he wouldn't adopt a different version of himself or kids#The only reason we never got batman in Flashpoint world is because he would Instantly adopt sickly labrat superman#and they knew it#there would be nothing in the world that could stop him#murder grandpa batman from flashpoint also joined in because uh SON#his son??#not dead???#no way is he letting him out of his sight???#Bruce: *looking at the court of owls talons*#Bruce: Hnn#Bruce: B a b i e s#Gimme Bruce who just has chronic adoption syndrome#Bruce who has all his kids at once#50+ in canon alone if you include every comic series episode etc#Did the math#including clones (tho i am probably missing some) that's about 80 kids

they are going to mehnahnaroo
#my art#mission to zyxx#C-53#pleck decksetter#dar mtz#ok time for some of my appearance headcanons#i was just gonna give c little dot eyes but i was goofing around with the doodle#and i was like. oh actually little light up ocular sensors that look like 👁️👁️ are kinda funny#i'm kinda trying to hit the space where the juck bot frame could conceivably have the same inner workings as the c frame#but it's got more like. idk plating and synthetic skin and stuff#i also think that ideally this type of frame is supposed to be more fully covered? with skin. less visible joints#and is supposed to have a cooler better looking face#but they got it at a discount store that sorta refurbished it juuuuuuust well enough to sell#they also mention in the show that the eyes glow and the jaw comes off#if there were any other details i forgot about them#i like tellurians to be Pretty Much Human#but I do like the pointy ears interpretation for one main reason:#i can put perfect little pointy ones on tellurians that are the Standard for good looks (rolphus etc.)#and give pleck ones that are slightly larger and a little bent. i just think that's fun#i'm also a short pleck truther and do not believe he is skinny. that man is at least midsized. actually probably just midsized#cause if he were too big he would be too cool#ohh and first time drawing the k'hekk eye yayyyy. it should probably be nastier but i can only do so much#dar i really imagine round cause it's like the classic Big Guy shape and they have no bones in their head so it can't be that structured#bodywise my design is def inspired by tikkitronictonic and snuffysbox's designs#i was at a total loss on how to interpret the talons and chutes and flaps when I was listening and this is easy and smooth#maybe the only major difference is that i imagine dar is pretty hygienic and furry scales feel like they'd be hard to keep clean#with all the uh. goings on#so i've got those across the chest and arms and then the torso is smoother in my mind#also ik dar is supposed to be like twice pleck's size but it's hard to stand these people next to each other#my brother said they made up a thing called mass shifting in transformers g1 to excuse the scale issues. so i'll do it too. get off my case

*annoying xenofiction author voice* I actually don't think the reader inherently derives any benefit from the POV character (of a non-human species) being described with more human terms of anatomy. in fact I think if you aren't using your phrasing to reinforce your worldbuilding or POV it can be just as distracting as the use of more animalistic terms to refer to anthropormophized characters. which isn't to say that either choice of language inherently helps or hurts the reader experience, but how this word choice relates to other facets of the written world can and will
#anyways I disagree with that attached reblog I keep seeing on that poll#literally if someone is reading about dragons and gets distracted by the use of talons/claws/etc for 'hands' then that is.#really not the author's problem#but also I'm speaking as. a reader of xenofiction! in which a combination of human and animal traits is not really something the reader#should get caught up on.#that's like watching a musical and not liking it because people don't break into choreographed song in real life#in both cases it's an advantage of the genre!! don't feel the need to treat it like a problem to be solved#draketxt

oh boy time for my nightly sit and think about eshka and viago !
#she’s so. oughhh about him!!#she’s so prickly when it comes to his attempts at being genuine with her#eshka had a rough few years before veilguard—the antaam incident was just the breaking point#a reckless streak brought on by her. kinda refusing to unpack her suicidal thoughts#she’s never been brave enough + cares about others too much to ever commit#but the desire to self destruct is still there#yes she loves Viago dearly yes she thinks of him as an older brother#yes she hates his guts for how he saved her and put her through crow training bc she was promising#yes she hates how he molded her into a weapon. yes she balks at any genuine connection w him#she isn’t special to him. she’s his crow and he’s her talon that’s how it works#there’s so many blurred lines between brother + talon + trainer + savior + etc.#anyway she likes telling him to go fuck himself when he makes her upset#and he calls her a selfish shortsighted brat#oc: eshka#owen plays dragon age

and, as a secondary thought: while all of these people came together for a singular purpose with the veilguard (as these things go), we also gotta remember that these people have had full lives outside of the veilguard, and those lives don't stop just because of it. there's more to them than a singular personal quest chain, and is definitely something i want to dig into.
#ooc .#tbd .#// fallout 4 left me a lil scarred about it#// yes i am still shook from that long ago#// don't @ me#// but they exist as more than a sounding board for the player character and#// i want to expound on that#// explore that#// and how they juggle lives both during and after the threat has passed#// considering they become more family than resistance group#// how do they work their daily lives / responsibilities into that#// lucanis being first talon#// emmrich being a senior watcher#// neve and her pi job#// etc

poor circulation
#a doodley#furry#getting sensory overload just imagining being a fur and having weight put on my tail#but ok yes actually talon is cold all the time he can barely produce heat for himself#it's less about him being affected by temperature (unless extreme) more that feeling warmth just so cozy#he is clingy once given the chance but wldnt be sincere about it sooo Needing Warmth as excuse to wrap around u#headbutt into you just like kitties do#transfer smells etc

The accelerator needing maintenance and Lena just chilling in Winston's office with a ton of wires and cables sticking out from her, plugged into her chest and accelerator,,,,
#thats it send tweet#listen i like a very specific kind of body horror and its being trapped in your own body#like she wouldn't be restrained or anything ( that only happens if Talon gets her and wants the accelerator )#but she has to sit upright in sn uncomfortable chair for hours while its being dug out and maintained etc#and we know from canon that its not a perfect piece of science especially since its a prototype - the only of its kind to exist#so id imagine theres a lot of maintenance#( headcanon. )#ask to tag

SLAY THE PRINCESS (chewing on drywall)
#oh my god the way this game has been festering in my brain since i watched rts playthrough of it ITS SO OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#I LOVE COSMIC HORROR AND SELF AWARE TIMELOOPS AND THE ENDLESS FUTALITY OF THE NARRATIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#I LOVE BIRD MEN AND GIANT MONSTER WOMEN AND NARRATORS WITH PERSONALITY!!!#sorry im normal.#quirinahscreams#no but i also love the voices of the main character and how the choices you make determine which one of them shows up (saying nonsense) BUT#ALSO HOW THEY EACH HAVE THEIR OWN SKILLS? IF THAT MAKES SENSE#like the stubborn and the hunted's affinity for combat/survival in the beast route or paranoids autonomic nervous system thing#she heart on my lungs till i liver nerves#I WISH IC OULD SAY MORE BUT SPOILERS BUT ALSO RAGHHH. they werent lying it really is a love story (gripping table so tightly it splinters)#THE WAY THE FIRST CABIN RUNTHRU IS LIKE UR DEFAULT SLATE AND THEN THE CHOICES YOU MAKE SLASH HOW YOU PERCEIVE THE PRINCESS IN THAT ROUTE#AFFECT WHAT SHE APPEARS AS TO YOU LATER#EVEN DOWN TO TAKING THE KNIFE#how shes docile and initially innocent if you dont take it but calculating and dangerous if you do#or depending on how you die she reappears as vengeful or simply cruel or resigned etc and then different voices show up to compliment that#i always feel so lame giving faceless characters visual appearances though its part of the mystique intrigue or whatever#but my boring hc for the mc is that hes like a harpy. a la howl movingcastle type beat but i also love birdman mc#its just that i wasnt paying attention earlier and imagined him as like a generic fairytale prince/knight and then realized oh he has TALON#I NEED TO SHUT UP OH MY GOD BUT ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I WANT TO DRAW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

--// Imagining Najma saying "I don't date humans anymore." gives me real "I'm done with men 💅" energy. ))
#ooc#having a bad mornafternoon need to imagine naj doing something silly#naj like: I am done with humans 💅#set: You have scheduled lunch with Dr. Janssens and you don't even eat#They're done with humans because humans treat them like a curiosity a commodity a care unit a lesser person etc.#being around a pair of omnics and interacting heavily with other omnics for the first time is making them develop standards#sadly they are still care-oriented and will perform their function but they aren't made to look after omnics while Set is#so they have to heavily get used to being the one receiving care and puzzle out how to reciprocate it they've decided to do so by...#letting set fucking rest#they just mutually check on each other from time to time after a while in Talon#set is more used to being checked on by others and they have experience with care units needing to adjust to people looking after them#so set is really quite patient about it all#about najma#about setesh#they actually link with Set sometimes allowing set to better know when they're in distress or having other problems
