more of my Rook-to-be, Illaryen 'Rye' MournWatchFactionLastname! As long as I may have the biggest curliest hair the engine can handle and give them dark eye makeup that looks like they've been sleeping with it on for days even when freshly applied, I think I can bring my vision to life once we get our hands on the character creator. Other than general looks and suspecting I'll be going for the purple option quite often (because of who I am as a person etc.), I'm contented to play the rest by ear once I'm actually playing.

+ silly doodle to showcase my history in this series of accidentally stumbling into height difference in pairings, a trope towards which I am largely apathetic but which still keeps happening to me (in a queerplatonic fuckery sort of way with hawke and varric. hawke is one of those people who like... you only become aware that they spend most of their time slouching lazily when they finally stand up to their full height to mess you up and you're gazing up at them like '...well shit'). will the curse hit once again in veilguard?? only time can tell, taash and emmrich I'm fucking watching you

I have so many feelings about this sad dusty little pigeon. God. Let me count the ways. This isn't Smart Meta, I have been doing too much tourist season work to be smart. All this is is aaaaa wife! ;~;

Like, that these are images of the same person and there's a continuity between them is so good and tasty and important. To me.

ETA: William this literally spoils the ending GTFO

I think a lot about how there's this throughline of palatability and consumability with Mithrun, so to speak. He spends his younger days making himself palatable and bubbly and friendly and perfect for everyone around him, all the while being a bundle of resentment and inferiority under that surface presentation.

And it works, he's beloved by everybody but Milsiril, who is more demonstrative about her negative feelings and finds his chipperness and sociability unsettling and annoying. She only starts to feel for him when she sees the dungeon he's built, because it's the first real exterior manifestation of his pain that's been revealed to her. And his inferiority is pain; his status and the fact he's loved at all is so intensely tied to his appearance and his presentation, and by that token it's completely conditional and he knows that. His greatest desire was a reality in which he could trust no one would (one assumes just emotonally) hurt him.

His drive is to be loved safely and completely, and it's ultimately a self-destructive drive that doesn't disappear when his desire and motivation are taken from him. What he wants, which isn't apparent to him for some time, is to be completely consumed. He wants to not have been discarded.

Like, there's definitely rage with his demon obsession. He is angry, but it's more complicated than simple anger at what was done to him. The parts where he's angry are sandwiched between parts where he's expressing all this insecurity, all this yearning to be fully consumed and fully loved. The fact that he wasn't makes him think of and describe himself as literal garbage.

So much of his scary forward momentum comes from what amounts to heartbreak and self-hatred. He was smothering in pressure and inferiority, and that made him vulnerable to someonething that offered him an escape only to gradually and then suddenly eat him alive. That maimed and disabled him, that purposely stripped him of the features that people valued him for. That ate the Good Parts and left the rest, which is most of him.

I don't know. Except I do. This is kind of a doodle/sketch of a smarter meta post I want to do eventually.

They're the same. There's continuity. To me. That feels important. I don't jibe with thinking of them as distinct, or with the idea that what happened fixed or matured him somehow. He's in the exact same kind of pain the whole time, it just depends whether he registers it or not.

And of course my pairing agenda is involved, because Kabru is kind and patient with him and ties stupid little bows in his clothes and doesn't really ask anything of him. And doesn't believe he's incapable of sleeping with magic or drugs. And doesn't believe he's incapable of feeling or growing or living a worthwhile life. Kabru doesn't believe he's garbage.

Your Eta and Iota designs gave me thoughts about them with Carolina. Couldn't quite get it to work right in drawing but yeah :3

cool idea!! I actually was gonna include something similar for a “fused” version of them (like we see in s6) but I also couldn’t get it to look right

[vamprnce]

i actually been wanting to doodle it, just haven't yet 😭

Pete and Miles have matching t shirts where they say "Menace #1" and "Menace #2" on them
