Dreamfyre you’re still the mother of Daenerys’s dragons in my heart and will be until GRRM comes out of his hole to tell me otherwise

Honestly something that really affected my view of Varric (and again, I say this with great love for the character) was playing my Terrible Hawke, Emilia, who ends the game an absolute anti-mage fanatic who believes that magic is a curse and it was a blessing that the Maker called Bethany back to His side before she could fall to demons. She is a Hawke who is mainly diplomatic, well-spoken, respected, and absolutely unhinged in her views on magic. She is the Viscount of Kirkwall, and by the time she comes to the Inquisition she's also taken Chantry vows and become an actual templar (after having practiced the discipline off the books for years). She singlehanded kept Kirkwall under Chantry control after Meredith's death. She slaughtered every mage to a one, even the ones who surrendered.

She's Varric's best friend. And he's just as starry-eyed about her in Inquisition as he is about any other Hawke. I love what a deeply unsettling side of Varric that is to see.

She's the best. She's a hero. She saved his city.

There was no explosion on the mountaintop. The earth did not crack. The seas did not boil. The doom the dragon brought came slower, quieter. The world had not collapsed at its talons, shaken by its might, deafened by its roaring. The calamity of the dragon came, instead, like blood tracked upon the floor of a silent house. The wound didn't kill, but the smell of it sent foul things sniffing after, until you realized you were alone in a place of safety, surrounded by teeth.

When the dragon woke, they only new it because the sun set one day, and, though it rose the next, the skies were too black to see it. There was only the glow on the horizon as its fire pooled, and seeped, and rolled its steady march across the landscape.

Like blood on the floor of the world, there was no regret in the wound, only in the stains it left behind.

I was looking at bts from Emma D’Arcy + Olivia Cooke photoshoot and realized we’ve never seen adult Alicent truly smile or laugh in the show and possibly never will. There’s been a few instances of a sarcastic/sardonic smile, but the closest I can think of is a brief moment when she is first holding baby joff, or minuscule moments during the 1x08 dinner. But like, we’ve yet to have a true smile of joy from adult Alicent the entire show, which is just really sad.

The hedgemage 'Scrap' (wild magic sorcerer) meets the Wizard, the Witch and the Wild One! This was just a fun thing I came up with for my World's Beyond Number OC HAHAHA. He's kickin' it in the Citadel and I always wonder what he'd be up to with the current goings-ons there. And I always wondered how he'd go meeting the crew! ENSUE tense Wizard VS Sorcerer moment LOL I love the gang so much! Had to do a bonus moment of the familiars meeting :) does anyone else have characters they've made up for this world? I'd so love to hear about them!

Sex is great and all, but have you ever watched a scene with so much tension that your soul left your body?

Like Togawa's thumb in Nozue's mouth?

Or Teh smelling Oh-aew?

Perhaps Ritsu giving Masumi some water?

Maybe Mangkorn commanding Yai to kneel and not speak?

Possibly Vegas sniffing Pete while forcing Pete to talk to his grandmother?

When Tan leaned into Bun and asked him this?

Did Li Cheng licking Mu Ren's lips finally do it?

Or is your soul intact and still very much tethered to your body?

[🦇 / october 2023 ] commission for @renkindle !! 🍜 (they/them for left, it/he for right)

[ID: a digital drawing featuring two portraits of anthro characters with sharp, stylized black linework. on the left is ghostie (they/them) a dark teal colored fluffy dragon wearing a black shirt with a grey hoodie underneath. on the right is ren (it/he), a fennekin wearing a beige shirt, a teal short-sleeved hoodie, and an olive plaid bandana. ghostie rolls their eyes, saying "in the mood for 'men, huh?" to ren, and ren looks back at them with a smug smile. (in this context, 'men is short for ramen). /end ID]

Au where Lloyd realises Arin is going through a “i wanna be a villain” phase every first student goes through and after an argument none of the ninja, not even Nya, can stop the annoyed Lloyd from dragging every single one of them out to the training yard before this petty loser summons Morro in front of all of them.

And Morro, trying to deal with whatever bull he’s been facing after the merge, stands absolutely baffled when Lloyd gestures to him saying to some random kid “Do you really wanna end up like him??”

Best part is that when they both get into an argument again and all the ninja and including the new gen give up on stopping them, Morro holds a hand up and says “wait wait wait, for the love of GOD. Do NOT tell me you’re trying to do that whole evil first student thing too.” And then this mf joins Lloyd in lecturing Arin in gruesome detail about his life and regrets in just as much annoyance. And this time Arin just stands there horrified thinking ‘maybe I should rethink this…’

All the ninja are horrified. (Well, they actually just kinda gave up. They’ve learnt that every green ninja, wannabe or not, are all incredibly stubborn.)

Sora, Wyldfyre, and Euphrasia are all equally terrified.

Lloyd knew this would happen. They didn’t share one brain for at least a month for nothing.

before the Gameplay Reveal of Dragon Age: The Veilguard went live the other day, the stream had a countdown on a purple background. there was cool music playing in the background of this. there is a rewatch link for the gameplay video, but it doesn't include the song. Ghil Dirthalen recorded it though, so if you would like to re-listen to it, you can do so here at [this link]. there is also a link in the description of the video to a download of the audio file there.

maybe this is the music that plays over the 'Start Menu'? :)

They’re doing their very best 💜

"rhaenys could have ended the war by dracarysing all the greens right there" yes because a distant relation to the throne deciding to barbecue an anointed and publicly positively hailed king and his entire family who is well loved within the city and in multiple other parts of the country for the sake of the succession of a far-away princess no one was ever on board with who hasn't been seen by the populace in literal years, her psycho husband, her three obvious bastards, and two toddlers from the psycho husband would go over super well with westeros and especially in king's landing where scores of the still-cheering population were killed for no reason by that same dragon who would do the barbecuing, because when targaryens act unilaterally without thinking of how the people would react there's never any problem, which is why the storming of the dragonpit and robert's rebellion were actually just collective delusions dreamed up by readers who hate rhaenyra and not key parts of the story and house targaryen's history that directly contributed to their demise and are intrinsic to the plot

truly team black stans are made up of only the most genius and media literate amongst us
