what do you mean with your hc that simon was always a dragon?

okay so this is one of my deepest most self indulgent headcanons because i'm gay and i think he deserves more and sharper teeth but it's extrapolated from a bunch of different details in the series: 1. we don't know what kind of blood davy used in the ritual. lucy couldn't identify it, but it almost definitely wasn't human. killing a dragon is one of the worst things you can do in the WoM and i really think davy isn't above that, at this point. (in terms of what i think the ritual entailed, i don't think he would have killed an adult dragon, either. a son for a son.) 2. simon's false feather wings dissolved in a bloody mess, but his dragon wings did not. iirc, he also had to wish for them, and penelope pointed out that this is fundamentally Not How Magic Works 3. penny also theorized that simon was actually turning INTO a dragon at the moment he got his wings, unless i'm misremembering again? its been a while since my last reread of the series and i have a memory disorder bear with me 4. "you don't kill a dragon unless you're trying to open a portal to hell" davy what did you do. DAVY, WHAT DID YOU DO. 5. once magic stops working on simon at all/after he loses his magic, the wings don't disappear, which makes me think they weren't powered by magic in the first place; they were just a part of his body. 6. margaret almost immediately (probably falsely but still) identifies him as a Kitten. she straight up thinks he's a baby dragon. maybe he smells like one, or feels like one, but i feel like she would be the most qualified to like ... tell? simon insists he isn't, but she seems confused and even a little put off when he tries to say he isn't just a lost dragon-kit. 7. when he's going off his magic is described as very blistery and prickly and black and red, and he glows and smokes and smells like a forest fire. dragon coded as fuuuuck 8. i think it would fucking rule I've never quite decided if i want it to be dragon ancestry, or if he's some kind of changeling via the ritual*, or something else, but the reason i draw the sword of mages with a fancy hilt shaped like a dragon is because i also headcanon that it looks different for everyone who wields it. (in my Baz Is The Heir AU: he summons it as a spada da lato, light as a feather with a handguard that curls like fire in a windstorm, inset with little sapphires) and simon's just ALWAYS been that dragony. i want him to grow more teeth, and they keep growing so he either has to accept them or have them pulled. i want his nails to be hard and sturdy as iron and he just never notices because he's always used them as tools, and he thought everyone's were like that. he bites them off because they break clippers. i want the red scales around the second set of deltoids (the ones on his wings) to start slowly creeping down his back and over his shoulders over time. because i think it would fucking rule. *i subscribe to this one the most, tho. makes sense. also i feel like the mage WouldTM.

When people start coming after me about romanticizing problematic characters I’m just going to ask them if they’ve ever fantasized about having a pet dragon at some point in their life. Because a fictional character has just as much capacity to cause real world harm as a pet dragon does. Yet no one ever comes at dragon lovers for promoting the illegal dangerous animal trade. You never hear “Promoting keeping dragons as pets in fiction just encourages people to buy dangerous animals like tigers to keep in their houses.”

Chatting with Mister Kaeya is so fun! Klee learns SOO much about the Weird Grown-Up… Can he really breathe fire? Was he really born scowling? Klee thinks it’s time for a special investigation!

Said special investigation is her following poor Diluc around for a week (she thinks she’s being stealthy) (she isn’t, Diluc knows she’s there from the start)

Kaeya’s stories have consequences… Poor Klee. Oh, and Diluc too.

Love it when mages/spellcasters in stories have slightly otherworldly traits. Unnatural eye colors/pupil shapes, unusual skin tones/hues, sharp/animal like teeth, nails, or ears, fur/horns/scales/feathers where they'd normally have none, etc.

[losts-abyss]

Right now, my toxic trait is thinking I could get a dragon to accept me.

Halfway through league of dragons and it's really funny to me that Ning came out of the shell with Temeraire's cleverness and iskierka's lack of any shyness when it comes to things she wants, and with a mix of the two very dangerous breaths as well, she's a disaster that's already happening and I can't wait to see what comes of her

thats how it went right

Oh, the uncertainty that comes with being faced with such baffling yet unwavering unconditional love. Especially from a creature that has been given nothing less than three hundred years of reasons as to why she shouldn’t even trust you at all. Yet she does. At the end of the day, despite whatever fights you got into with each other, despite how bad of a mood you were in, despite whatever happened earlier that day, she is still there at the end of it

listen i Get why people don't want to pre-order games and 100% agree that its bad for game companies to assume things will sell based on name vs content/execution or not wanting to support bioware after the sudden layoffs + denying severance employees were entitled to, all of this i agree with, 100%

but i have seen like 6 separate posts saying "LOOK HOW ABSURD THE ROOK'S COFFER PERK IS, $150 AND IT DOESN'T EVEN COME WITH THE GAME, IT'S INSANE WHAT GAME COMPANIES EVEN DO THESE DAYS" and like that is just completely missing the point

you can absolutely buy versions of it with the game from other retailers like gamestop, for $150+game cost ($60) just not from bioware itself, because

they are offering it sans-game as a way for PC players or people who want to play ASAP and plan to download/pre-load to play right on release to still get the physical merch perks, because

either it is NOT going to ship and arrive in time from bioware for people who want to play right on release, or they can ship it early and not worry about accidentally pre-releasing it to same fans, plus

THE COST WITHOUT THE GAME IS EXACTLY COMPARABLE TO THE DA: INQUISITION COLLECTOR'S EDITION PHYSICAL BUNDLE IN 2015. That one was $200 for the game+physical merch like the tarot deck, a notebook, some coins, quill & inkpot, etc. If you add the game cost here it would be $210 for both the coffer and digital copy of the game. That's only a $10 increase in price from the 2014 cost of the last game which is barely even covering inflation over the DECADE since then

Like, yes, I am sure it cost less to make the items in Rook's Coffer than they are selling it, that is how selling anything works. But claiming that this is entirely out of line with industry standards and a greedy move by the company is like... ok, well, yes. The company exists to make money. They offer extra perks for people who really like the content and want to pay for it, that's... how most fan-based services work. You can dislike it and not buy it! That's everyone's choice and I honestly don't disagree! But kinda wild to see all these "what an audacious move and so unlike anything released in the past" posts for something that is absolutely standard and normal is kind of silly

My personal wistful missed opportunity is wanting to know what Iron Bull would have to say re: the Antaam

Like I know 100% bioware has not and likely Will Not ever really handle the Qunari lore particularly well but Bull was one of dai’s cast highlights for Me and knowing his own complicated feelings about the Qun if he turns tal-vashoth is really making me think. It’s been half a decade since I was super fixated on him so I’m sure my memory is a bit spotty but I mean. The themes I’m seeing so far here could probably slot in very nicely as a continuation of his arc? It would have been a great time for another missive at least. He’s not a spy anymore but I have no reason to think he wouldn’t still be Paying Attention to what’s happening in the North.

Realistically if you saved the Chargers we can probably assume they’re fighting alongside everyone else but imo if the Inquisitor can take the time to send off a few long-winded letters, so can he.

Story notes: "Secretly dragons are full-on firebenders; they just like being underestimated."

Me: "I've got to write more about this world."
