This is less of a "character study" and more like my own personal "bullshit cheat sheet"
Bioware is a bunch of cowards and REFUSES to show us naked turians so, in the chance I need to do my part for society, I wanted a personal reference for Garrus + some little extra stuff of Null. Feel free to use this for yourself if you like, but just know that biology was NOT in the forefront of my mind and I purely designed shit based on aesthetic/what kinda makes sense visually
i love the idea of phos getting strong enough to carry more weight after obtaining their gold arms. phos would still be getting used to controlling their strength and impulsivity at this phase, but i like to think they would act more carefully around shinsha.
@cryptotheism 's ditzy little moth boy, Mattie! I have no idea if Mattie is even into women, so if he isn't, pretend he's asking for a friend (or someone he considers a friend).
It's also worth mentioning that Mattie has ordered an "avant-garde deconstructed taco," inexplicably with a cherry on top of the sour cream, despite cherries not going in tacos. He's also wearing silver bracelets, which I imagine he is allergic to, so he's downed a bottle of allergy medicine, which has made him extra floozy tonight.
Also, remember to boycott Taco Bell in real life and download the "No Thanks" app if you haven't already!
"Should I quit dark magic? Please, Terry. Tell me what to do. Claudia, I can't. Only you can see your own deep truth. Only you can decide the path you're going to walk. You won't be alone. I'll clear out the thorny brambles if I see them, I'll hold your hand as we trudge through wet, mucky leaves. But…you have to choose the way. What do you need to find your truth?"

this is probably one of my favorite outfits that i've ever put together! and it's all for one of my top five fav character designs, like... Ever!
rambles:
i would like to note that my dear beloved Jaime (@/awkwardalphajay here on our very own hellsite<3 check em out <3) helped out a Ton by sending inspiration photos and providing insightful commentary on details and vibes!
overall i wanted Sally to have fancy vibes! while i was originally going to have her fit very much based on her canon one, i wound up veering off course and - while still keeping some elements - mostly went for Medieval Entertainer and Her House insp! continuing with the day/night theme, and leaning heavily into the fire aspect - she's a literal star fallen to earth, after all!
it was suggested that she should have dragonscale used in the making of her clothes since she's, you know, kind of made of fire! and it was genius! I imagine she has extra fire charms on this fit and also the rest of her clothes, since dragonscale is hard to come by and is a finite resource once Gathered. she gets better at Not burning everything she wears over time, thankfully!
i think that, like Frank, she'd have One (1) Dagger. for emergencies! it's likely very ornate, and she'd hate to scuff up the gleaming blade. Probably. plus, why would she need it? she's got firepower, babey!
there isn't quite as much to say about this as usual... mostly because this one was more Vibes than strategic "ok this and this and this because this and also-" i was just! makin a fun outfit!
I love tim but he has to be a little bit blind I think. there's a man chasing me.. who is brian's exact height and moves the same way.. and is wearing brian's yellow hoodie.... and I haven't seen Brian in awhile........ so who is this random man in the woods that is wearing brian's clothes..... yes............. I am the best detective this world has ever seen
no really ALL im saying is if aziraphale was infront of ME and me only and even gave me a smallest amount of attention i would've already confessed right there. wouldn't have taken me 5 minutes let alone 6000 YEARS. nuh uh. especially if he slutted me out while dressed like THAT in 1793 or rizzed me up in 1941. i may be oblivious but im not dumb as fuck and i would've taken THE FUCKING HINT. unlike SOMEONE. ugh if only i was in crowley's place this shitshow wouldn't have taken more than aziraphale's eyelashes to flutter once and i'm done for the wedding is already in full swing oh lookie here a priest appeared completely out of nowhere how odd how mysterious!! anyway we must not waste this opportunity let's just get over w it for completely normal regular reasons YEP!! nothing to see here just a perfectly regular every day wedding !! like come on man atp u gotta blame urself for wasting opportunities like that
Uh, gameplay-wise, I really love characters in shooters who rely on three-dimensional movement techs. Chaining together hover and jump to stay in the air for as long as possible and keep momentum is so satisfying, and picking enemies off from the sky made me feel like a bird of prey. I was a good Pharah main.
Story-wise, there unfortunately isn't much to canonically go off because Pharah is so underutilized and neglected. Her personality's pretty boilerplate "heroic hero" (she's literally inspired by Captain America).
But it's the crumbs/bits and pieces that I really latched onto. Pharah's a confirmed lesbian; her short story with Baptiste implies she harbors a crush on Mercy (fucking thank you.). She's biracial Egyptian/First Nations. She has major mommy issues, having grown up both admiring and resenting Ana. She's the bridge between Old Overwatch, inspired by the idealized heroes who surrounded her childhood, and New Overwatch. She's one of the only inter-generational characters in the cast; someone whose experiences span the gap, which is why I seriously believe Pharah would make a great main character.
There isn't much to go off of, though; she's a very uncomplicated character (she's a soldier for a private military corporation, lol.). But that just means she's a blank slate character, so I've seen fanfic writers run wild and create some really interesting takes on her. My favorite interpretation of her's a dense, herbo gym-bro type (a lot of her liens are about work outs, exercising, and playing sports) who's easily excitable under her seemingly self-serious, armored visage. We see how she tends to gloat and hype herself up when she's on a streak too, so Pharah definitely has a competitive and boastful side under her more professional and militant performance.
Sometimes I want to bring Morrigan but then I remember I play as a face-tanking rogue and I bring Wynne.

Okay i'm in my feels now!! I mean I Have Been the entire day, watching New's concert but-
I've been following NuNew and ZNN for almost two entire years now and I've seen them both grow as artists, people, and in their relationship with the fans and how much and what they choose to share with us. If you don't follow them at all or not much, this might not hit you the same way as it did me but let me try to explain.
P'Zee is the type of person who constantly seems on the verge of yelling out his feelings because he can't contain them. He's mostly the one who's slowly been spilling small details of their private relationship to fans and the public, almost soft launching, really.
I will never move on from the closing scene & last kiss scene in Cutie Pie because P'Zee suggested it himself, he really wanted a scene to publicly show affection and express love:
So today, when I heard him say he's been wanting to do this for a long time and I saw New get nervous, I immediately got the same brand of nervous that I always get when coming out to people. I don't know if it's just me who felt like this was momentous but here it is in full, translations by me below the clip:
Z: Well... one thing that I've been wanting to do for a long time.
NN: Hm?
Z: That [I've? we've?] never done anywhere before, that you said is giving encouragement and expressing love. I also think that's what it is.
NN: Do what?
Z: And I'm a person who has to ask first, like, [I] can't just go right in.
NN: ...
Z: 🫴 Can [I] (sniff) kiss [you]? *NN starts crying here 🥺* 🫂 Hm? Just now you said you wouldn't cry. [You] did so well! 🫂 Mh! 💋 [You] did so well! (×2) (keeps comforting and praising him softly) Why are you crying? Hm? Tissues-
NN: Crying again...
Z: Crying again.
NN: Why am [I] such a crybaby!
Z: [I] don't see it being a big deal. ... Isn't he talented, everyone?
🗣: He is!
Z: Please be his encouragement as I am as well! Today you did it. You did- in my opinion, you've achieved such a success. And you should be happy for yourself. [I] believe that everyone is super happy for you, as well.
NN: Thank you.
Z: This time I won't be stealing the tissues. (referring to day1 lol)
