[biggest-gaudiest-patronuses]

anyone else have multiple traumatic memories associated specifically with holidays/family vacations? because that is a topic I never see discussed in all the So You Had A Shitty Childhood, Now What? self-help books i've been reading. but for me, it was a significant thing. and the more i think about it the more it seems like this would be an (unfortunately) common experience. would be grateful to hear if this matches other peoples' experiences...

Mental Health Tip! Don't skip meals lest you be fighting demons

[webshood]

random Jason Todd hc's:

He has cauliflower ears

He's not necessarily catholic, but Catherine was a bit before she went on her addict espiral so he likes to go to church on her birthday and deathday

One of his ear lobes had to be stitched back together after a spar with Damian went wrong

Stephanie unintentionally got him into skincare so now he has a morning and night routine, he has all the top quality expensive stuff

He uses "women's" body lotion, so he's always smelling like jasmine and almond oil

His hair was very curly growing up, but after his dip in the pit it's more on the wavy side, Talia calls it his placenta perm

All his teeth grew back from zero after the pit so he had to use braces again and is stuck with retainers until his league assigned dentist says otherwise

He attends med school out of spite – gotta get that doctorate before anyone else in the family –, but everyone on his course loves him

Once he went undercover to a gym, spying on a villain and got swarmed by gym bros asking his workout routine, what he did for bulking and for his Instagram

Did modeling for one of his college friends as a favor once and people from the fashion department are bitter because he won't model again

Wanted long hair, but Dick has a mullet, Tim's hair is on the longer side, Damian's hair is long – but spiked – and Duke's locs were getting pretty long too, so he asked for a shorter haircut and got hit with the kdrama CEO haircut, carries around a tiny straightener to style it everyday, otherwise it looks weird

Has people stationed in every part of Gotham, from the working girls, drug trade, schools, government workers, the gcpd, every major company, kids also pass along messages like a big game of telephone

All of his lieutenants have a name related to red someway: Ruby, Valentine, Brick, Rusty, Sangria, Blaze

He's his own right hand man, Blaze, people are more open to him as Blaze and are mostly likely to spill or tell things to him they wouldn't dare to tell Red Hood so he uses it to keep his gang "clean"

Sangria is completely enamoured by Red Hood, but would throw a shoe at Blaze's face without thinking twice, Jason finds it funny

He was on the book club, theater, MUN and the choir during his time at Gotham prep , he was training to join the baseball team too, before shit hit the fan

Uses the British version of words/speaks with an accent constantly, since Alfred was the one who tutored him on stuff from the school years he missed

Talia sent him to a korean martial master and he had to learn how to do aegyo to survive, he sometimes will forget that he's a very large man and act/speak cutely whenever he's in the vicinity of an ahjumma, they usually find him adorable

Snippets 🐺💜

There is faction-themed gear to wear, like if you chose Grey Warden as a background, there is GW gear. [source: The Discord]

"As a faction, the Inquisition doesn't really feature prominently in the story - your appearance options are more reflective of the factions and styles you'll encounter in The Veilguard." [source: The Discord]

body sliders + "a triangle for gradients of body types" [source]

"The team heard us loud and clear on hair styles". Frostbite engine updates served them well. Hair moves with your body and reacts to the wind [source]

For pronouns and gender selections, everything you select is used in the game and in cutscenes [source]

After the bar fight, the choices on how to engage with Varric are "a 'I had you on my side' or 'It went okay, but it worked out' or a haughty answer" [source]

Each companion has a loyalty mission to cement their commitment to you as a leader [source]

Accessibility-type features include full subtitles with or without character names, and directional lines that can be turned on to indicate the direction of incoming projectiles and their timing [source]

"The dev team was very clear that they learned a lot from Inquisition, and that the game would be far more focused. Gone are the busy work tasks, with a greater emphasis on making each interaction memorable" [source]

We'll see more tactical gameplay in the near future [source]

Thinking about what time means to a fae and how conscious Lilia and Malleus became to it, and in a way, always have been.

Time has always ran at a different speed to faes than humans. To them, 20 years is nothing and runs by quickly.

Yet, unconsciously, time has become a concept Lilia and Malleus is conscious of.

For Lilia, you can say it started while he traveled and looked for a way to hatch Malleus. He keeps coming back to Mal egg, and tells him how long it’s been and how he’s still looking. Lilia who would encourage him to stay strong and tell him stories about traveling.

For a fae, this passage of time would mean nothing, but Lilia felt all those years. He constantly looked and worried about Malleus. He cared about him. It wasn’t a just a needless measurement of passage anymore.

But a concept he was conscious of as he looked to the stars and wished during his travels. Of course, seeing how the world evolved helped too. But, it was always in his mind, how to care and hatch Malleus.

And then he broke down crying, saying how after 200 years, he finally met him. He was relived. He was happy. All those years? It was worth it for this very moment.

Time moves on, treaties are made and Malleus grows, and then Silver is found and he’s conscious again of time. This time, it’s how fast it is for a human. Silver grows and changes faster than a fae and Lilia is also aware of that/made aware as is Baul and Malleus. Baul because of Sebek and Malleus because of Silver.

And then they come to NRC, where Lilia becomes aware of time but with a shock. His magic is gone, faster than he accounted for and so is his time, which makes him scramble to leave so he doesn’t hurt his loved ones.

With Malleus, he is aware of time, but initially it’s based on his loved ones as well. When Lilia visits him and he gets to spend time with him, Malleus’s time with his grandmother no matter how rare it would be, and unfortunately, the incidences of his loneliness (the cakes, the scares, people running away, etc) which he is aware of.

To a degree, he also understands the passage of time with humans because of Sebek and Silver.

He helped raise Silver. He has seen some of the milestones first hand. He taught them both. Malleus states multiple times how Silver and Sebek have grown quickly. He might not be as conscious as Lilia is but he is aware of it nonetheless and probably more aware than some of the fae in his country.

It really shows how much he cares about them to be so aware of how much time passed and how they grew to be the fine guards they are.

Malleus is shocked once again with time, ironically, because of Lilia and his leaving. Because Lilia is running out of it. Like how Malleus as an egg was dying and running out of time so is Lilia now. It has come a full circle and Malleus is more conscious than ever after he first found out about Lilia’s departure.

I find it rather precious and sweet that to such a timeless race like the fae, it is because of the love they have for their family that makes Lilia and Malleus so conscious of it. Because every moment to them is valuable no matter how long you have because they love each other so much 🥹💞💚

Post Metal Virus Sonic being so afraid to touch anyone. Not uneasy, not uncomfortable, just afraid.

Sonic hasn't ever been exactly a touchy person, but he isn't exactly a non touchy person either, he does what he wants when he wants, and touch? He didn't mind it, even if he didn't exactly seek it.

To seek touch wasn't in his priority list as much as one would think, to him it was as simple as to know that anything that reached him always had him reaching back; friends, foes, life and nature itself.

That was the naturality of it all, for there is nothing more natural than to seek the world that surrounds you. He doesn't mind touch, he thrives on it, for the world was always reaching for him as much as he was reaching for it.

That's what he used to think, then the Metal Virus happened.

A simple change in the way of the world that he always lived by, an artificial change at that, a sabotage, one that managed to turn around everything he knew about it.

He was still able to reach the world, but the world couldn't reach back if he did. And it would be his fault.

It was his fault every time he tried to run and reach for anything, anyone that could've reached back, but didn't.

So he fought it, fought agaisnt the one thing that was holding the world and everyone in it hostage. The thing that he helped spread. He fought, he ran, and he fixed it, because he had to fix it.

He fixed it so everyone could reach for each other again. So he could run and reach again, so he could feel again.

And It worked. He could run, and he could reach again, he just wasn't trying to reach at all anymore.

He's no longer giving high fives to children who manage to see him while on his runs. He refuses to stop while in the open for long enough to let any critters or flickies perch on his quills. He runs from the restoration headquarters not even a minute after getting there just to avoid talking to anyone who knows him enough to properly greet him.

He doesn't pick up wildflowers anymore. He avoids the bubbly Chaos who always cheer on him. He runs fast enough for anything that could ever get close enough to touch him to just get thrown away because of the wind itself. He subconsciously, purposely even, keeps going forward without a second of appreciation to the beautiful, alive world that he leaves behind. The world that still reaches out for him.

But how can he get away from the world itself?

The answer is always running.

His heart may just want to feel life again. But he doesn't want to take any life away, so he won't seek any, he won't reach out for any.

He can no longer afford to get on Knuckles' nerves to have a fun spar with him. He has forgotten how it felt to get the air knocked out of him by an Amy hug. And he just won't let Tails get anywhere close to reach for him.

Constantly on edge, never still, always running, that's his thing, that's his normal. Nothing else matters; Not his mind dreading the sole thought of even getting close enough to brush shoulders with anyone. Not his heart craving the feeling of warmth and life that a hug, a fist bump, or a hair ruffle could give him.

His legs itch to run, not towards something, but away from anyone.

So he keeps running.
