#because it led him to this

I headcanon that Astarion would sing lullabies in Elvish to his newborn(s).
I read this last night when it came in and immediately wanted to cry. I thought giving it a few hours would change that but honestly it just made it worse.
Tav/Durge sleeping and he's on night duty. I can just see him gently pacing back and forth in their living room, fireplace going and he's softly singing the maybe one or two lullabies he remembers in Elvish (he assumes his parents must have sang them to him as why he remembers them) until the babe settles down. And then he'll sit on the recliner with them cradled in his arms, staring out the window as they're both bathed in the moonlight that pours through. Kissing their tiny little forehead.
He's forever amazed that they exist. And as he looks upon them, it's hard to imagine he ever lived a life different from this.
#i think being a father would bring astarion so much peace#like it would give meaning to the 200 years of shit he endured#because it led him to this#without that he wouldn't have tav/durge and their little family#idk man#thanks for making me cry at 4am#dadstarion#answered

Normal Friend Behaviour.
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#lan wangji#lan xichen#Ring ring! It's your judgment call! None of the lan brothers are there to pick it up!#Lan Xichen is so openly like 'I trust Jin Guangyao so much! Our bond is so deep! I believe in him like you believe in wwx!'#The tension! I remember not knowing how this would go because woagh the red flags for betrayal were so strong here.#Now I have spoiler brain so I mostly see the heartbreak coming but I still remember the anxiety of thinking lxc would betray lwj.#The way LXC compares his relationship to JGY is so funny to me. They aren't technically canon but...like....come on.#LXC *also* lets on that he knows LWJ has feelings for WWX. The implications are the loudest subtext I have seen.#Personally I see it as romantically one-sided on LXCs side. I think JGY knows and LXC denies his heart.#I think the tragedy is that JGY can't move past his need to make everything a game of chess to see LXC as more than an oppertunity#Here's the bigger tragedy: The one time he followed his heart...it led him to Qin-Su. Whom he loved dearly!#but...oh god was that ever a massive disaster that must have been internalized as 'following my heart is a mistake I can never make again.'#Ah - Happy Puffy Sleeves WWX debut day! We finally made it!#I'm personally a fan of the happy accident of WWX having white sleeves for this arc B*)

Imagine for a moment if right after Niko had pointed out the starfish to Edwin and said "They're in love." Charles had come in, completely oblivious and pointed to them saying, "Hey, they're just like me 'nd you, right Edwin?"
#dbda#dead boy detectives#charles rowland#edwin payne#payneland#niko sasaki#today's crack thoughts brought to you by my hilarious idea that Charles is always comparing him and Edwin to everyone and everything#some comparisons are more accurate than others#but Edwin enjoys that all of Charles' insane comparisons pair them as a set#it's never 'that's just like you' or 'it's just like me'#it's always 'it's just like you and me/me and you/us'#i had another one that led to this thought but now i don't remember because the urge to post the second i thought of the starfish-#overwhelmed me#please reply to this with the most insane comparisons you think Charles has made to them over the years

i would like to imagine that after machete dies, vasco starts collecting red things. red, like the soles of machetes shoes and the hems of his cassocks, the front of his nightgowns after a heavy nosebleed. or maybe he collects pink things, like machete's nose and ears and paw pads, or things white like his fur. he never collects anything black, however. red like the hems but never black like the fabric. black is too sad. it's grief, it's unfathomable loss and it means admitting machete is actually gone, stolen from the world. but ludovica is there, and she indulges his collections in little ways on the occasion. it's a small comfort, her love for her husband in their lavender way.
.
#whh#why must you wound me like this anon#coming to my inbox and saying this to my face like it's nothing#/j#no I do love this headcanon#especially since red and pink are practically absent from Vasco's intended color scheme#red is Machete's theme color and his personal favorite in-universe#but it's also sort of a symbol of his ambition and obsession with his career which eventually got him trapped and led to his demise#so even though I believe Vasco finds him dashing in red he would also feel attached to pale pinks and whites#because if you strip Machete of his red and black work persona that's what's left#and I'd imagine moments like those are what he cherishes the most#answered#anonymous#Vaschete scenarios#Ludovica ;o;#I love her I need to draw her again >:T

taash said "they were doing it" and people ran with the interpretation of an npc that doesn't know solas or the history of the elvhenan even when bellara interjected and said, no, that's not right. that's not how it was for the elvhenan. they formed bonds before they had physical bodies. and people ran to doompost or create weird anti-solavellan shit even though mythal & solas refer to each other as old friends and when she releases him there is no tenderness or love in it. it is the act of unchaining a dog from his post, the stepping down of a general. but to each their own ig.
#let the record show i think love was there. do I personally perceive it as romantic / sexual? no.#mythal's perception of love & care is warped in and of itself#i think they loved each other. but she loved what she could take from him and what he could give in terms of service#not because she was romantically into him#also i wish we knew more about her & elgar'nan. her regret prison form says she holds no love for him anymore#and it makes me wonder when that love soured. was it when she was blighted? before that? was that love also born of duty and companionship?#this is the last post i'm gonna make ab this i think#bc i believe people are too caught up in the modern western ideas of love as thing we give solely to our romantic partners#and we literally have a character go ”our perception is warped bc of the age we live in” and some of you are still being purposefully obtuse#and i think trick saying it's up to interpretation is basically admitting EA had them dumb down the game anyway#if everything ab the rise and fall of the evanuris in game#was condensed to five 2min cutscenes it says enough that whatever the writers wanted#was swiftly cut down by corporate dept. basically saying it's in the fans' court now#also bc it's an easy cop out around new players & non solasmancers who are indifferent ab him / dislike him#as a way to appeal thru a more sympathetic lense of look!! he loved and was led astray#not to mention the clear justinia / leliana parallels#and leliana gets angry if you imply she was romantically involved / in love w justinia#and the romance descr when you remake your inq saying the dread wolf could not predict what it would mean to fall IN LOVE#implying he had never fallen in love before or at the very least experienced a romantic love#also him saying drinking from the well would make you a slave and he gets really upset#yet ive seen takes of ”hes doing this for her cus he dgaf ab lavellan” ?? he got mythal killed when he told her ab the blight#whatever feelings of admiration he had for her have rotted. he is literally burdened by his mistakes and his choice in joining her#i feel like if i were a spirit bound and twisted into a weapon i would need my creator to tell me i am Free. i would need that closure#like when cole says its not abuse to bind him if he asks and solas said thats not always true???#if you perceive her interaction w him in vg third act as#anything more than the way justinia released leliana in inq then im sorry maybe youre just obtuse#solavellan#mythal#dragon age meta

okay okay I just. So. In Hunchback of Notre dame, frollo is a huge conflicted pervert. And he sniffs Esmes hair. Steals an article of her clothing and sniffs it aggressively. Ect. This is VERY yandere Frollo coded to be. Especially after meeting the prefect with no magic what so ever. Perfect.
AAAA YESSSS!!! Rollo is such a clothes stealer and sniffer!!!! He's so icky...... swiping your underwear for himself and using it to get off. >_< better he cums with this article of clothing wrapped around his dick than inside you. You're just so pure and untainted,,, it's a miracle you've managed to remain so while being surrounded by so many filthy mages at that Night Raven College! He's determined to keep your purity intact and he believes he's the only one qualified to look after you.
Imagine the Glomas plot, but instead you're taken hostage by Rollo before he sends the rest of the NRC students down to the channels beneath the city. >:) something something,,, Rollo holding you while you're struggling and he's whispering to you all about how there's no need to be so panicked. Aren't the flowers pretty? Come, let him take you to a better vantage point (the bell tower). You won't want to miss the fiery swarm as it consumes the city. <3 soon, the world will be rid of magic and then all will be right. Surely you would understand this, he's saying, spidery fingers creeping along your shoulder. Gross, terrible Rollo leaning in to smell your hair or even your neck,,,,
Missed opportunity for Rollo to be even more villainous than he already is...... oh, to have him kidnap you and to then have the one he thinks is so pure betray him by ringing the bell.... in my mind, this is the canon Glomas, but then that would take away the confrontation Idia has with Rollo and that's a really good moment that's immensely important to the narrative. AAAAAA OTL I just think he should kidnap his darling as a treat. Prime enrichment for Rollo.
#twisted chit chat#n/sfw#i am madly in love with him!!!!! he could do despicable things to me#like a lamb led to sacrificial slaughter i smile at the shepherd i adore so dearly because it his gentle hands that shall slay me lovingly#i need him.

Now I pretty much missed the whole thing, but to be clear Barracks Bunny is a derogatory term which is why it's hot in the context of dark content? It's also very hot to imagine the likes of Soap actively claiming the term because he loves that it's a degrading way to call him a slut? Like you are interacting with darkfic, what's not clicking?
Anyway, Gaz gets Soap for secret santa and gets him a playboy bunny outfit as a gag gift only to be gagged when he swans in wearing it with no shame what so ever. This man has been slutting about and not one of his team has called him on it or teased him or said something horribly mean, what's a man gotta do to get some degradation around here? He's trying his fucking best to get one of them to say something mean and they're all just letting him live his life and being supporting? Christ he hopes the discomfort of the thong trying to bisect him and the time he took to make one of the bunny ears flop over just so isn't a waste and they actually take the damn bait for once.
#the way Ghost would absolutely humiliate this man and speak to him like he is dirt if he'd actually use his words and ask#because he is not going to just do it without consent and he needs that consent to be led by the other party#but Soap thinks he is being all coy and alluring

Why did he think that was a good idea to say
#no because like what was going through eurylochus' head when he decided this#''hm my captain is quiet today which is uncharacteristic of him. we are also going through a dark mysterious possibly dangerous cave.#This is Definitely the best time for me to confess that I betrayed him and went against his direct orders.''#like oh my gOD EURYLOCHUS you have horrible timing#could he have NOT waited for them to finish going through the lair of scylla before telling odysseus that#a genuine wonder how the crew has lasted so long if it werent for odysseus#like. the first decision the crew made after committing a mutiny led them to their DOOM. after being warned by Ody that it was a bad idea.#Odysseus really is the only reasons the 600 men had survived as long as they did during the trojan war#odysseus#the odyssey#eurylochus#eurylocus epic#odysseus epic#epic the musical#the fire burns#the fire crackles with joy

Dc x Dp Prompt #3
Immortal Ghost King Au:
Daniel Fenton was crowned as High King Phantom of the Infinite Realms on his 16th birthday. He knew many were opposed to him being crowned at such a young age (he was too), but the Realms had gone too long without a ruler and it was getting restless.
The Realms were sentient to some extent. It can not run itself as it has no form but it chooses a host, a King if you will, to fulfill its wishes. It may have lived on an entire millennia without a ruler, but it was only out of sheer luck and the contributions of countless gods that it had survived. The Infinite Realms needed a King and Danny Phantom was the only contender.
So the people were ignored and their boy king was crowned. However Phantom was young and naive, a child as both a human and a ghost. Even worse, he knew nothing about being a king. But the little godling would learn and learn he did.
Most kings were taught before they were coronated, but Danny had no such privilege. His coronation came and left with the wind. His private lessons overshadowed any thoughts he had left of mortal schooling. And Danny gave up on living a normal human life.
That last part was perhaps the easiest for Danny. Amity Park was already considered too liminal for them to have any “sentience”. The GIW had all but declared war on the Realms with their continuous violent actions upon his people and the land itself.
It wasn’t difficult for Amity to give up their “rights” and “humanity” either. They said good riddance to the world that never helped them, to the heroes that ignored their cries for help. And they bowed to Phantom, declaring him their King, just as he declared them citizens of the Infinite Realms.
He welcomed his liminals with open arms, vowing to protect them from any harm that would come their way, just as he would with any of his other citizens. He gave them a home in the Realms, an island- no a haunt of their own should they wish to truly reject the land of the living, and they accepted. Not many wanted to try their luck against the human government.
But with a God, no, their King on their side, they knew their safety and happiness was all but assured. After all, it was Phantom who protected them even as they turned their own backs at him. It was Phantom who fought against foes that could have erased him from existence.
And of course it was Phantom who would now receive any and all support he could ever want and need should he declare war against the humans of Earth. No, there was no need for people of the Infinite Realms to worry. High King Phantom was a God after all. It was only ever his right to exact divine punishment onto those who opposed and threatened his will. It was not their fault if the humans actively went against his will. No, the humans had no one but themselves to blame for whatever came for them.
#dc x dp#dp x dc#dc x dp prompt#dp x dc prompt#the infinite realms is home to more than just ghosts#like demons and other things too#it uses the king as its host to ensure its people’s survival and in turn makes the king a god#pariah dark went against the realms will#so he was sealed away and not killed because you can not kill an already dead god#the people of the realms were skeptical of having such a young king#but Danny’s a quick learner and turned out to be really good#amity park vs GIW wouldn’t be the first war he’s led#Danny gave himself a god complex bc people respect him more that way#it’s a mask he only uses outside of the realms#he’s acts normally when he’s with citizens of the realms#can a god even have a god complex??#amity park moved to the infinite realms after the GIW tried killing them all#JL and JLD are struggling trying to find a way to negotiate a peace agreement#but amity park feels abandoned and spiteful so they refuse#lucky for the JL that it’s Phantom who’s in charge#or maybe that’s the reason they’re not so lucky#amity found out Danny was a god and ran with it#this might be a good way to like make this into an arranged marriage au with a person of your choice#make Danny as old or as young as you want#Danny will do what he needs to make sure his people are safe and happy

Death Loves No One
Cause if he did he'd want to keep them forever
After obtaining the title as Ghost King and losing all his family, Danny started to feel lonely. He had friends, ghosts that would stay for eternity by his side but it wasn't the same. Danny felt that his personal connections were what kept him sane, the evenings with Clockwork calmed him down, but it wasn't the same calm that Jazz used to provide.
So, when he was given the title of Equilibrium it wasn't really a big deal. It was just another title among a thousand others, Clockwork advised him to visit earth to discover his purpose but also warned him that he would not look human.
Danny accepted it but didn't take it seriously, he couldn't help but get scared when people started screaming around him. He wasn't doing anything weird, he was visiting the cemetery, his family's graves, but everyone was running away scared.
He realized that since he lost Jazz (the last one to leave) he no longer looked human. He wondered if it was possible that someone might be interested in talking to him but dismissed it. Some people began to nickname him "Death" because all he did was stay in the cemetery.
That's why it was extremely rare to find a boy calling him every day and making a small talk, he became attached to the boy. The boy would visit different graves but always stayed to talk to him, never yelled, or called him a bad name. Danny couldn't help but love him the same way he loved his family.
He wasn't surprised that the boy died soon after (knowing him brought misfortune didn't it?), but he never stopped visiting the cemetery. So, when the boy rose from his grave completely disoriented, Danny wondered if it was somehow his fault.
#dpxdc#ghost king danny#Danny lost his family#he felt cursed after it#as if everything around him is destined to die faster#his family did not stay as ghosts because they were at peace#Danny never was#His lack of contact with people made him less human#because the halfa began to forget how to be human during his pain#and his core reacted to his emotions#changing his appearance#dc x dp#dp x dc#Jason was the one who visited the cemetery#he liked to leave flowers for his mother#and Danny never scared him because Jason always thought death was kind#and maybe too lonely#Danny wonders if the fact that he became attached to Jason led to his earlier death#or to a half-life like his#he's not supposed to love after all

Solas addressing current day Thedas about his plans to bring down the Veil:
#the egg was going to save the elves and lead a rebellion and instead you made it all about mythal and only mythal#by all means have mythal and solas's relationship be fucked#but why minimize Solas's entire past as a freedom fighter for this?? his motivations were lessened so much from what trespasser set up#the game made him so unlikable to me#joplin cut save me </3#that version actually had him helping the elves like he said he was going to do in trespasser -> instead he started two world wars in datv#he absolutely only made life worse for the elves and everyone else on thedas since the moment he woke from his beauty sleep & that's fucked#led to thousands and thousands more dying and the entire south being blighted to hell#make the man whose flaw is that he cares too much cause the most harm to everyone on thedas in its TOTALITY from the titans to this point#they did you dirty solas >:(#people won't remember him in thedas as a freedom fighter post datv -> there will be no songs or legends about the true fen'harel#remembered as he should be as the man who stood up to gods for the slaves -> who risked all he had in the name of freedom against tyrants#instead he set in motion the greatest conflict of the age as well as corypheous -> people will curse his name just like the dalish once did#they will look around at the blighted remains of their lands and the bodies of those they loved and they will blame him and be 100% correct#god it just makes me feel depressed what they did to him#the elves would absolutely be fucked all over again because of this - their gods returning and blighting the world#while another was responsible for it happening in the first place????#then to hint that the forbidden/forgotten ones are still out there as an antagonist too?! stoppppp#datv critical#datv spoilers#bioware critical#dragon age the veilguard

"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
#personal#house of the dragon#anti team black#i mean i guess??#like the crowd was cheering for aegon HARD#and they were always on board with aegon#and the hightowers are a powerful house with a lot of allies#and alicent and helaena specifically were well loved by the people in king's landing and the realm at large#and none of them ever liked rhaenyra or daemon who again have been MIA for basically a decade already#and again targaryens overreaching their power and not taking the people into account#is the reason why their house fell into oblivion and now rests entirely on a FIFTEEN YEAR OLD GIRL WHO IS THE ONLY ONE LEFT#if she roasted the dais the mob wouldn't have even let her leave they'd have killed her and meleys both in a heartbeat#storming of the dragonpit but a couple months earlier#the thing to remember is that i think a lot of team black stans are just kinda stupid#and do not care about the story at all or the actual intricacies of the world and its politics that is so important to the dance#(remember the rumors of rhaenyra mistreating helaena and alicent literally led to rhaenyra's death)#(because it led to the mobs and the storming of the dragonpit and the death of joffrey and her being driven out)#(and thus having to go to dragonstone where sunfyre got a little meal out of the whole debacle good for him)#(along with all of her ten million other shitty political decisions)#how do you profess to be pro-targaryen without even knowing targaryen history and where they erred and how that ended them#like *i* like the targaryens you guys have heard me talk about the conquerors all the livelong day#but i am also smart and i understand the world george created and the concept of repercussions#anyway yeah i am Annoyed at that new daemon clip (wow what a shock something annoyed me and had daemon in it)#(my least favorite character who could have foreseen this)

Suggesting that Anakin’s love for Padmé was “conditional” doesn’t fit right when you know he continues to love her just as intensely and feel extreme guilt and remorse over what HE did to her for the entirety of his life.
#anidala#anakin skywalker#padmé amidala#ofc his actions aren’t justified#can’t believe we still have to disclose this information#but it’s facts that circumstances led him up to what he did in rots#not because he’s truly like that deep down#anakin at the crux wasn’t an unsafe person#padmé was always safe with him and even says she always felt that way around him in the novels#as I say circumstances are what led him to those actions#it wouldn’t have had happened again especially with the guilt and self hatred he holds for it#anakin wasn’t some repressed abuser waiting to take out his anger on his wife#he had a moment where he snapped and was already at his lowest#that’s how we’re supposed to comprehend that scene#also it takes unconditional love to continue to care and feel remorse over someone you believe had betrayed you#star wars#need to stop dumping my thoughts in the tags lol
