I've been very curious since ISAT has such strong characterization: what do you think makes a "well written" character? I've asked around in my circles and I've gotten different answers (serves their role in the plot well, 'you can imagine meeting a real person like this', they move the plot along in an interesting way, etc) but I was curious because ISAT is still fresh in my mind.

thank you very much... for me, if every action a character takes can be linked to a specific trait/backstory/whatever, thats a well written character. you dont need to know in the moment, but on a rewatch if you go "omg thats why they did this or said this..." you know thats the SAUCE!!!!!!!!

Yesterday two of my coworkers were trying to get a stuck wheel off a 2-ton. One of them, who lives in a quite rural town, got it off in an unconventional way and said "that's an old farmer's trick." The other said "yeah, maybe a Jewish farmer."

I didn't quite hear what he said so I went up to him and asked, "hey, what was that you said about a Jewish farmer?" He said, "oh, I should've said a Polish farmer," and then reminded me that his family is from Poland. It wasn't until then that I realized the point of his joke was that "Jewish farmer" meant stupid or incompetent. He knows I'm Jewish, but he's a bit of a jokester and doesn't always think before he speaks. I'm wasn't sure what to say about it, and he seemed to know what he said was wrong, but I think it'll stick with me for a long time

I have watched all of three episodes of House MD and I am delighted to report I am absolutely sold on this asshole and his secretly-just-enough-of-a-bastard best friend.

House: *says the most out of pocket sarcastic thing*

Wilson: *rolls with it without even blinking*

I see through you and what I see is love and devotion.

Scri dressed as an angel, Edgar dressed as a demon. It would be fun to see the roles swaped regarding costumes!

Hey so uh I wanted to ask about that candy bar you gave me at the Halloween party last night, I ate it before bed (it tasted really good) but when I woke up I started to notice some things. My voice sounds kinda softer and higher pitched than before, my body feels tingly and kinda soft, my hair looks a lot longer and fuller than I remember it being, and every time I look in the mirror I think I look thinner than before...my clothes feel uncomfortable...people have been saying I look and sound cute and every time they compliment me I start blushing...n-not that I'm in any pain, don't worry, it's just...uh...w-where did you get that candy bar from again?

Awwww, well cutie the bars are ones I make by with plenty of love, specially for Halloween and a secret recipe I can’t just share with anyone

But since you seem to enjoy them so much let’s make a little deal!

I’ll let you Trick or Treat everyday! Just come here with a new fun outfit everyday and you’ll never run out of candy bars!

That said the bars work the best if you eat them everyday (and they can have quite some withdrawal symptoms) and I only have you the first bar because your costume was so so adorable and cute and feminine, and just so you know you’ve set the standard now cutie!

If you want more candy bars you better come back in an even cuter outfit, and also make sure to walk here in broad daylight where everyone can see! No cars allowed, most of the fun from Halloween is that anyone can see your costume, so you do need the show off phase

Got it cutie? Good Girl! Now take one more bar as a free-bee and I expect you here in much more appropriate clothing tomorrow, if you want another bar of course

Hello Guild Wars 2 community! A new poll has dropped! 🐦‍⬛

(At least, hopefully new, lol.) I'm curious, which blessing did your Commander get on their first/canon go through the Raven Sanctum in the story mission "The Invitation?" Choose and tell me in the tags why they made their specific decisions :)

Compiled explanations from the wiki below for ease of access:

The trial choices in order:

Save the wounded man or save the healers

Save the spell tome or save the historical record

Save the queen or save the prince

Blessings:

Blessing of Daybreak

"When the fear of beastly claws and a child's pain is made sharp by the knowledge of elders, we make no mistakes. But do we grow?"

Healers -> historical record -> prince

Grace of Dawn

"When wisdom is favored in all things—a healing hand, a text of old, a beloved queen—we lose the sharpened sword of the truly bold."

Healers -> historical record -> queen

Consecration of Morning

"We seek to destroy monsters with sharp claws and icy breath, but do we protect ourselves from the beasts shaped like us, who prey on the young and vulnerable, who seek to rule us?"

Healers -> spell tome -> prince

Invocation of Midday

"When we flee from the things we fear most - the teeth of beasts, the storm of a dragon, a change of power-we risk running backward."

Healers -> spell tome -> queen

Supplication of Midday

"We favor the skill of healers and the wisdom of elders over the uncertainty of the future. But the young take chances, and the young push us forward."

Wounded man -> spell tome -> prince

Consecration of Evening

"We long for the comfort of a healing touch, an ancestral word of wisdom, a leader we know and trust. But comfort is fleeting, and with it comes inertia."

Wounded man -> historical record -> queen

Grace of Dusk

"We sacrifice so much—safety from the claws of death, knowledge of the ages, a steadfast reign—to propel ourselves forward. But if we move too fast, do we risk the inability to stop?"

Wounded man -> spell tome -> prince

Blessing of Twilight

"We try so hard to do the right thing. We heal, we protect our people, we preserve stability. But we cannot control how the winds of fate may shift, and a tight grip can sometimes hurt more than it helps."

Wounded man -> spell tome -> queen

the "painting" with the orange tree by "juan" is AI.

Hi, do you have any actual evidence of that? I looked at the original post, and it looks like op just added "ai art" tags because someone told them it was ai art, again, without evidence. I looked up the artist, and while he is openly a digital artist and I get a lot of hits of people doing so-called "ai art" in his style (or links to pages in which his art is talked about and then halfway down the page there is an article about ai art), I don't see direct evidence that he is using so-called ai? (Although most of the direct some I can find by him is in Spanish, which I do not read, which makes it more difficult to research.)

I will remove the post (and be kinda pissed) if it is made by a plagiarism machine, but some random anonymous person declaring that to be so is not enough for me. One of the really messed-up results of the use of so-called ai is that people feel empowered to call tons of genuine artwork (often digital artworks) "ai art" based nothing except vibes or repeating a rumor.

And again, to be clear, I am more than willing to accept actual evidence that it is ai generated. But I need more than an anonymous person's say-so.

Trick or treat! 🎃

Couldn't be anything other than a treat, and for as much as every slice of life in your lovely fics is a standout it was Flame that popped into mind as such an amazing example of how effortlessly Lokius variants fall right into place, not to mention a great chance to add Ragnarok Loki in the trick or treat festivities 🥰

trick or treat!

Trick! Have some vague, not at all thought out, ideas I've gotten for Hangster in the last 24 hours because my brain is apparently only all about thinking of the vague-ness of idea but nothing to actually to take in a singular direction but in numerous ones!

Rising country singer Bradley (yes, absolutely came to me because I listened to Zach Top's Bad Luck) and the real reason Jake is into the cowboy aesthetic.

Teen Wolf AU, where the Seresin family is the largest pack in Texas and Jake brings Bradley back to meet his family but uh on, he hasn't actually shared the werewolf secret with him. (Bradley knows all about it though, because he's something in his family tree via his mom).

Jealous Hangman (mostly because I saw @the-ace-with-spades posts about it) but give me jealous Jake while trying to get back with Bradley but then still give me jealous Jake because he's absolutely terrified he's going to fuck it up and drive Bradley away again. (trauma from that previous relationship baby!)

Everyone assumes that Jake and Bradley are exes because of how they act throughout the mission and before but are shocked to learn they never were anything. Half because when one was single, the other was taken or deployed halfway around the world and half because they were always terrified to take that leap and give them a real try. So queue the dagger squadron going to ridiculous lengths to get them together.

Jake is absolutely used to topping because of his looks and discovers he's an absolute pillow princess the first time he lets Bradley take charge in the bedroom.

Death Wish Lose by Benson Boone insight to Jake's feelings about Bradley.

Jake takes a stripper pole class to surprise Bradley for their tenth wedding anniversary.

Trick or Treat with Nixie!
