#but its slim pickings

[a-minstrel]

somehow like 8 years later dragon age inquisition is still bascially the queerest AAA game. it’s not alone but there are not exactly a huge amount of games on a comparable level. heteronormative industry.

I've been collecting pottery shards from the fields and woodland since I moved to the countryside a few years ago, I have so many now that I think I'll relocate them to containers, but it's nice to get a proper photo first.

i wish k-12 education did better at helping kids find what they were actually passionate about alongside basic education. like yeah yeah all kids need the basics in math, science, english whatever but there's so little ability to explore new and interesting subjects outside of like the few electives you may be able to squeeze into your high school career at the very least. like the US education system has always needed a revamp, but it needs to include more ways for kids to just explore stuff.

do you have favorite inheritance fics? i’ve been struggling to find them

Yeah! I have a handful! Tbh, I also struggle a bit to find IC fics that I like, though that's largely because I don't like either of the 2 main ships. (IC has a lot of oc and crossover fics too, which aren't my personal preference either.) Also, there was a several year stretch when I wasn't keeping up with the fandom, so some of my recs are quite old and no doubt I've missed some more recent stories. Maybe I'll update this list if I find some more favorites!

Katrina and Roran and Carn by LordGrimwing

This is a series of three fics exploring an AU where Carn lives and eventually comes to live with Roran and Katrina in Carvahall. I like the premise a lot and the fics are very sweet!

You, Me, And The Wardens Across The Hall by Chapeau_42

A modern AU where the new generation of Riders are all college roomates together. I go back to this fic on the regular. It's simple but very enjoyable fun and the characterization feels excellent.

First Day in the New Hometown by Chapeau_42

This one is unfinished, but still worth while in my opinion. Again, I love the characterization. Murtagh is invited to stay in Carvahall to protect the village while Roran is away. The premise is engaging and it establishes some interesting interactions!

Shackled By Blood by purplehairedwonder

This one is also unfinished and is rather old. It's a bit harder to write a rec for because I read it during my IC phase some years ago so I don't remember it perfectly. But it always stuck in my mind for having especially good narration and story. It's an AU focused on Murtagh that diverges after the end of Brisingr. The unfinished end is a bit of a cliffhanger, so don't read if you can't deal with that, but I at least found the concepts compelling enough to be well worth it, despite being incomplete.

Fireplace, Murtagh and Tornac by purplefizzgirl

Speaking of old! This one's on deviantart of all places. But I remembered these fics so vividly and fondly that I unearthed them for myself the other day, so I think I'd be remiss not to rec them. This author wrote a fair few fics, a lot of them focused on Murtagh growing up with Tornac. This one is my personal favorite where Murtagh is very young and still getting used to Tornac, very sweet.

No doubt I'm forgetting some good ones of the myriad IC fics I read years ago, but alas I have an awful memory lol. I may update with more eventually!

(Also. At the risk of sounding vain, I want to rec a couple of my fics. I think they're worth while! My Love is a relationship study of Murtagh and Thorn and the bond they formed during their struggles in Uru'baen. It's older, but I still find it strong. The Half Dead is my most recent fic, involving my post canon story line. Murtagh and King Orrin stumble into a chance encounter and find an unexpected understanding while trying to mitigate any danger they've ended up in.)

i know that behind the scenes vid and most paparazzi photos have been ep1 ep2 i think and theyre all in these same outfits so who knows what else they might wear in the season but they all at least look like something and el just looks bland and sloppy as hell and not interesting. I know she's in hiding but STILL. will looks cute and teen hearthrob protag glow up, mike looks like mike always looks, dustin got a plotline attached to the fit, lucas looks totally 80s. el looks salvo superman bouta rob a burger king. she doesn't look marketable. idk it feels like her story's a bit backburner but maybe i'm just mean i'm a hater, maybe she did piss off the bros lmaoo. js.

Browsing for home decor online is so frustrating bc I have to trawl thru the beige shit- I do not want my home to look like some minimalist Live Laugh Love place I want it to look like Howl’s Moving Castle 😤

[muirneach]

and you already know we’re hitting the diego/domi tag on ao3 tonight

[essektheylyss]

Listen, Curses is the sexiest Crane Wives song, but if I'm being honest at least.... 28% of that is because it is very fun to belt and, crucially, it's in alto range.
