#he’d probably play DND too tbh

[chibishortdeath]

I was playing Undertale a while back, but also Funger at around the same time, so uh, something happened 💀💀💀

Younger Undertale fans who may see this post! Be warned! Funger is not for kids! Don’t go looking it up!!! There’s nothing inherently adult in this post, but the game is very inherently adult and graphic horror!!!

texting them

gon

✰ he didn’t grow up with much technology

✰ and he def did not have a phone

✰ so since he isn’t in the habit of using it often, your messages are all on delivered

✰ he also prefers to live in the moment instead of checking his phone all the time

✰ unfortunately for you that means you’re better off calling the person he’s with if you need to reach him

✰ once you talk to him about it though, he’ll be sure to answer within a couple hours

✰ he’d save your contact as a pet name, personally i can see him using “sunshine” or “honey” for you

✰ you’d be pictureless until killua points it out to gon and explains that you can add pictures to someone’s contact

✰ but once he does learn he’ll use a cute coupley picture of you guys from one of your first dates

✰ would have trouble deciphering your abbreviations

“btw ur gna be back asap right?”

“huh.”

✰ its fine, he prefers to call (loves to hear your voice) anyways

killua

✰ y’all would be so mischievous together

✰ prank calls as a weekly ritual

✰ you’re mostly safe from them but don’t think he’ll never do it to you

✰ probably won’t text you first but always responds within the minute

✰ would only call if he’s checking up on you, like when you’re sick or he’s on an adventure

✰ will use the most abysmal, disrespectful picture he has of you

✰ your name on his phone is either an inside joke or an insult like “sleeping ugly 🧚‍♀️” (he’s out for blood omg you overslept once)

✰ i just know alluka is confused af

✰ he’ll change it to something else whenever you see it, which you will eventually

“y/n can you check my phone?”

“sure! babe why is my name ‘dumbass’ heart emoji, wizard emoji?”

kurapika

✰ you can see this one from a mile away…

✰ his phone always got that silent mode + dnd + texts muted combo

✰ he does all that but would fully expect you to pick up if he called you

✰ speaking of which, he would call probably daily if either of you were away

✰ never forgets an “i love you” “be safe” “see you soon” etc

✰ if something happened, would want you to know that

✰ you guys would fall asleep on calls

✰ but mostly him

✰ your contact might just be your name for a while

✰ but i could also see him using something tame like “love” or “sweetheart”

✰ hes also the type to leave you on read

✰ especially if you’re asking when he’ll be back or how his mission is going

✰ generally just keeps his work separate from home unless he needs to vent or it’s extremely relevant to you

leorio

✰ wishes he could talk more often

✰ school just keeps him really busy

✰ will be upfront with you if he needs time to study, make dinner, or anything of that nature

✰ you’d get in the habit of leaving voicemails

✰ he listens to them all and leaves some for you too

✰ also good morning and good night texts, always

✰ your picture is whatever picture of you he finds the hottest tbh

✰ your name would be a pet name such as “shorty” or “beautiful”

✰ idk why but i feel like he’d misplace his phone often

✰ so if he doesn’t respond by the end of the day, you’ll probably get a call from his roommate’s phone saying how he lost his own

hisoka

✰ lets it ring out and then calls back a minute later

✰ “oh did you need something?”

✰ this man can’t stop playing games, the call cuts off halfway through what you’re saying

✰ then he calls back again acting like it was the wi-fi

✰ don’t worry——that’s only like a quarter of the time

✰ depending on his mood, he’ll be mostly serious

✰ imagine the look on his face when he realizes you’re calling because you’re in the hospital or smth

✰ yeah so he’s better at responding now!

✰ your contact picture is gonna be from the most stalker angle

✰ like it’s just you sleeping

✰ you found that a little odd but maybe your clown just wants to capture those memories

✰ …while you’re walking home on the opposite sidewalk

✰ if you’re in a longer, serious relationship, your name is something romantic like “my dove” but it’ll take a while to get there

illumi

✰ you’d be so surprised to find that he loves to call

✰ he travels a lot as an assassin, so he needs something to do

✰ would always text you formally it’s scary

“have you arrived at the manor yet, y/n? be sure to notify me immediately once you do.”

✰ he’s giving you customer service type responses

✰ you’ll also get updates about his missions

“i’ve just finished killing the target, expect to see me home in four days”

✰ the contact is just your name and if you convince him, he’ll add a picture of your choice

chrollo

✰ has like six phones

✰ if you didn’t know he was the leader of a gang you might‘ve thought he was cheating

✰ you also have the numbers of most of the spiders

✰ so if he ever has to disappear (like after yorknew) they’ll be sure to let you know what’s going on

✰ he’ll text you a few times a day if he’s able to

✰ would ask about your day and remind you to take care of yourself

✰ the conversations usually focus on you, while he listens or prompts you

✰ like kurapika, doesn’t want to involve you in troupe business so it’s very rare for him to even mention them

✰ he doubts you even want to hear about how he robbed an old man today, or killed a woman who didn’t hand over a jewel

✰ on his top secret personal phone, he’ll give you a contact photo with both of you in it

✰ your name would be a classy pet name, maybe “princess” or “beloved”

whats some dungeons meshi headcanons u got? owo? i totally believe Laois would be furry and into legos Cx

also i really enjoyed ur Ao3 fanfic about Laios x reader :D!!! I really agree with the way you write him :3

THANK UUU omg. I am gonna start with Laios because I have such a clear version of how he is in my head. I have nsfw hcs too but I’ll include them in a separate post if you want! These will just be sfw and more modern au geared

Laios is 100% a furry I…can’t even deny. he definitely sees himself as some like super cool timber wolf with icy blue eyes and platinum fur (or wolf/hunting dog mix) but everyone thinks he should be a Samoyed or something

he has multiple fursonas tho. one of “that” monster. maybe a dragon sona. he’s made up his own species to. may adopt sonas/species from artists he likes. yeah he’s a furry community veteran.

i never considered legos n Laios but. You’re so right. I think he’s more interested in the more complex nature setups or fandom ones. There’s definitely a half finished setup in his room at any given time (he gets super hyper focused on finishing them for like. a few days then kinda forgets until the next random fixation.)

he definitely has a dog that’s like. his best friend. he spends a ridiculous amount of time at the pet store or dog park or hiking w it

is a local game store REGULAR. he enjoys a lot of tabletop gaming like mtg, dnd, pokemon, and even digimon but in my mind he SLAYS at wingspan in particular. He has all of the extras and stuff. he has a group he loosely calls his buddies there that play with him time to time

not a huge video game fan though? I think he likes stuff like monster hunter and LoZ but like? I’m really unsure what else he’d be into. like yeah he likes monsters but like. he needs a specific genre….strategy based games are probably more his style. he may get into competitive pokemon tbh

no sense of style. Not in like a bad fashion way but like he just dresses extremely plain. Like he wears the most basic ass white boy clothes it’s ridiculous. He has a collection of silly t-shirts but that’s about as exciting as it gets. he believes socks and sandals go together. but somehow his hiking gear and jacket game is top notch. literally looks like ducks unlimited poster boy.

he grew up middle class but in a rural area. so he has manners and such but he’s kinda sheltered?? a little naive too but…he just has a big heart. He’s someone who believes in doing good even if like. There’s a chance you’re getting scammed.

ok that’s all the ideas I have now for gen hcs but tysm for the ask

[heniareth]

I was really curious about what your opinions on the DAO companions are :) I know we have talked about some, but I'd love to hear more and about the others as well :D I hope it's ok to pose this as an ask :)

Sure! That sounds like a ton of fun. This might be a long one tho. Mind you, this is not the finished version of the answer. I'd like to link stuff and add a cut, but rn that's not possible. I'll update it when I can.

Edit: I have updated it ^^

Let's go alphabetically bc why not.

Alistair:

Sweet guy. So sweet. There was a moment when I was hard pressed chosing between him and Zevran (alas, Zevran won). Also, he's weirdly tall according to the wiki? How did I not notice that before?

Let's get a bit more serious now, Alistair is a great guy. The only reason he's not the hero of the story is because he doesn't want to. He has all the qualities of a leader: he's good at dealing with conflict (as evident with the conversation with the mage at the beginning. He gets where he wants to get without antagonizing the mage, but without allowing him to trample all over him). He's a solid tactitian and knows how to make allies (he suggests to use the Grey Warden treaties, after all). I bet if he was in the leadership position, he'd even not bicker with Morrigan. His moral code is pretty tight; some might say too tight, but I think it's less about the moral code and more about learning to judge people by their actions, not by the labels they fit into (Morrigan is a proud apostate and therefore bad. Wynne is a humble circle mage and therefore good). He also has a bit of a black-and-white way of seeing the world. I empathize a lot with Alistair, especially with his experience with the Chantry and his subsequent reluctance to deal with it. I really wish I had gotten to know more about concrete experiences he had during his training as templar, but he seems reluctant to talk about it (gee, I wonder why).

Since I've only played the game once, I haven't really picked up on Arl Eamon's abuse towards him, which apparently exists (Isolde, however... I mean, even if he were Eamon's illegitimate son, he's a kid, ma'am, he didn't exactly get to chose his parents. So that's so not okay). Alistair's way of speaking about them both, however, is either sign that he has not come within a hundred miles of acknowledging how much it hurt him, or that he's already gone through the whole process and has decided to forgive them. The latter shows a very strong character; yes, he relies on the approval and leadership of others, he has his issues, but he's already started working on them.

That being said, irl Alistair would be like a little brother to me. I'd tease him relentlessly (all in good fun and I promise to stop if it makes him uncomfortable, but he's just so teasable). I still wish the videogame gave him the chance to take important decisions for himself. But that, of course, would somewhat defeat the point of the game.

Leliana:

Another sweet, sweet person. Her singing voice is amazing. Her belief in the Maker inspires me (I'm a religious person and seeing religious characters represented in a positive light is Very Cool. It's also sometimes a source of discomfort, because the Church has done a lot of very messed up stuff and positive representation can sometimes veer into apologetics for things that should not be excused, but that's a whole other can of worms. The bottom line is that religious characters sometimes work for me and other times don't and Leliana works for me very much bc she's an outsider inside the Chantry).

Leliana is best friend material, tbh. I'd love to get to know her irl, discuss theology and philosophy and maybe even politics? She makes mistakes and has prejudices, but, tbh, so do I. And I do get the feeling that she tries her best to learn. From the times she intervenes in a conversation between the Warden and an NPC, she shows herself to be compassionate and open to the needs of others. What I get from her character is that she genuinely wants to help, which is something that I adore of her. I suspect that she sometimes has a hard time deciding wether she's a good person or not. She has killed and seduced and worked for a morally dubious person, and she doesn't show the same nonchalance about it as Zevran (though they both do discuss their line of work in very... professional terms). This is, however, more of a headcanon than actual factual canon.

I also very much enjoy her girly side, like her interest in shoes and dresses. She's one badass woman who also looses her cool about the latest fashions in Val Royeaux. I like that. Between her and Alistair, a non human noble Warden has as good a help to navigate the Fereldan court as they're going to get. Leliana is also, I can't forget that, clever and insightful. It'd be easy to write her off as the innocent chantry girl, but she's so much more than that. Her kindness is paired with foresight, I think. She knows that taking on the trouble to help now can go a long way in the future. I just have a lot of respect for her.

Loghain:

This one's gonna be short bc I didn't recruit him. He's an amazing villain and would probably be a great Warden as well. He reminds me of Denerhor from LOTR; once a hero/stewart of his people, ambition and desperation have driven them both down a terrible path. I have also only little idea about his past. People say he lost a lot, and I believe it wholeheartedly; it doesn't excuse the fact that he plunged the country into a civil war in the middle of a Blight. I don't have a lot of sympathy for short-sighted politicians. I wish he hadn't made himself regent. That's what I take away from his character.

Edit: One thing I forgot to mention that really impressed me was his death. I had Alistair duel him (that was a rough duel), and then it kinda just jumped to a cutscene of my Warden nodding and Alistair executing him. That didn't sit well with me. I didn't want to kill Loghain, and less so in front of Anora. But what impressed me was that Loghain just accepted it. That takes a whole lot of guts. Compare that to Howe's death, and how he screams out that he deserved (more, probably, or anything but death) and it's crystal clear who the more noble of the two is. Loghain strikes me as very lawful neutral, and any neutral alignment has the particularity that it can be dragged towards good or bad, sometimes without the characters noticing it (which is interesting from a DnD perspective; neutral is often concieved of as just as stable as good or evil, but that may not be true. But that's a different post). Anyway, Loghain's death was impactful.

Morrigan:

I could kick myself for not maxing out her approval in the first play-through. I got to enjoy a bit of her friendship by the end of it and boy was even that little bit worth it. Friendship with Morrigan is something that is hard-won. It's all the more precious because of that.

Morrigan is full of paradoxes, I think. She's incredibly wise in some ways, yet also very short-sighted (”just kill them, don't solve their problems”. Morrigan, dear, I'm not going to gain a lot of allies if I kill everybody who poses a problem to me). She is so intelligent, but emotionally... not so. She knows so much about some things, and very little about the next. She's incredibly wilful and knows what she wants, but follows Flemeth's orders all the time through. She hungers for power and independence, yet craves closeness, but won't allow herself to have it. She asks you to prove yourself to her and is extremely critical of your actions, I think, because she's afraid. She bites the hand that feeds her because it might hit her next.

Like with Eamon, I haven't managed to catch the undercurrent of abuse that seems to permeate Flemeth's relationship with Morrigan. Except there are signs, because there must be something Morrigan is scared of and who has instilled all that rage in her, and that's Flemeth. Also, she clearly hates/does not care about her and wants her dead (unless killing Flemeth was part of Flemeth's plan as well? Hm.)

Morrigan is that one person who you are nice to, continuously, because nobody else is. And suddenly she becomes less cold. And then friendly. And suddenly you're asking yourself why everybody hates her, because she's a really good friend! I just wish the other companions came to a similar conclusion, especially Alistair and Wynne.

Oghren:

They did this man dirty. He has such great lines and I'm convinced he was a great person before Branka disappeared. He has that dwarven warrior spirit, and while he looks like Gimli, some of his most impactful lines remind me of Dwalin or even Thorin Oakenshield himself. He could be so noble had he gotten some character development, damnit!

Oghren as he is written is somewhat disgusting. I hate the lechering comments and the drunkenness. And still, I don't hate him because of those amazing lines he has when he's actually sober. It's frustrating and I'll give him that character development myself if the game won't. I strongly associate the song Whiskey Lullaby with him, bc that's how he would have ended up if the Warden hadn't taken him along (warning: the song talks about suicide and alcoholism). Like I said, they could have done such cool things with his character. As he is written now... it's just sad. Moments of lucidity drowned in alcohol and creepy jokes. As you can see, I don't blame the character for either. The alcoholism happens all too often irl. The creepy jokes... I put that one on the writers' tab.

I actually think Oghren could have been a great mentor figure (I know, I shock myself as well sometimes). Next to the Grey Wardens, the ones who know most about fighting darkspawn are the dwarves because they have to deal with them constantly. Especially a warrior caste dwarf like Oghren could have brought a lot of that invaluable knowledge to the team, especially since there are no Grey Wardens in Ferelden but two extremely green recruits. Next, you get the chance to give Oghren the command of the teammates you leave behind in the battle of Denerim with the reason that he has lead men into battle before. Where did that suddenly come from? Oghren should have been right up there telling my Warden that they were doing this wrong, that they needed more food (and booze) and a confident leader to keep the armies they've called together going. Oghren should have been able to tell my civilian city elf who got recruited into the Grey Wardens a six months ago how one leads an army. How one presents oneself to inspire confidence, how one doesn't crack under the pressure, how one gets the leaders of said armies (some who hate each others guts i.e. Dalish elves and humans) to work together. And, last but not least, Oghren could have had a great story about grief. This is a man who has lost most of what made him (and what he hasn't lost he's spilling down the drain with every mug of ale). This is a man who, if you take him into the Deep Roads, has to see what his wife did to his family, how his wife got absolutely obsessed, and can be forced to kill said wife or watch her die. All Wardens loose their home and families at the start of the story. It would really have rounded the whole narrative out if the Warden and Oghren could have recognised their grief in each other and hashed it out somehow. Such as it is, Oghren is a depressed drunkard and there is nothing we can do about that. I find that frustrating.

Rascal (a.k.a. Dog):

Best boy. 100/10. I wish we had gotten to see the reaction of the different origins to the mabari (because elves probably have a whole different experience with them from mages or humans. And dwarves just... I think they straight up have none? XD). Other than that, no complaints. The name Rascal was the one I gave my dog because you have to be a right rascal to survive what he did and play the pranks he plays. Smartest breed in the world indeed.

Shale:

Shale is one of those characters that I recruited rather late in the game, so I haven't had the chance to explore their personality and worldview, really. I didn't even get to take them to the Deep Roads (this will be ammended in playthrough nr. 2). As such, I don't have particularly strong opinions on them (or her? The wiki refers to Shale as 'it', but that sounds weird). But, because I know so little about Shale, I have a lot of questions. First, what were they like before they were a golem? Shayle, as she was called then, was the best warrior of her time if I remember correctly. Why did she become a golem? Was it to be able to eternally protect her people? Was the sarcasm the golem Shale exhibits also part of the dwarven warrior Shayle or did that come later (if for thirty years you have nobody to talk to but yourself, you better be entertaining. And I can imagine how it could make somebody terribly jaded as well).

Next, how attached is Shale to their golem form, exactly? According to the banter, they infinitely prefer it to a squishy fleshy form. If that is the case, however, why go to Tevinter to try and become a squishy dwarf again? It's not like that process could be reversed if they wanted to become a golem again; if Shale survives to the end of the game, the Anvil of the Void is destroyed and Caridin is dead. Was the whole spiel about their indestructible form a façade? It might have been, but not because Shale actually disliked their form. I think it would have more to do with the loss of their memories and with the very invasive experiments and alterations of Shale's body made by the mage Wilhelm. The loss of memories means that Shale is unable to remember life as a fleshy creature. They might be deflecting by pretending that they didn't care for that experience anyway because of the superiority of their golem form. The modifications made to their form by Wilhelm would have alienated them from their body. In light of this, it's significant that Shale asks the Warden to decorate their form with crystals.

All of this is, of course, pure speculation. I may have easily missed or forgotten details that would disprove the above thoughts. All in all, I like Shale and I hope we meet them again in DA4 (given that it's mostly set in Tevinter). It's a liking from a respectful distance, because Shale is tall and made out of rock and also way more experienced than I will ever be (they are literally the oldest member of the Warden's little Blight fighting squad).

Sten:

Sten is another person I'd keep a respectful distance from physically. That seems to be the what he would prefer, at least. I've enjoyed his character a lot, especially because he seems pretty clear-cut at first, but slowly lets the nuance of his person show (gruff and stoic, but then he has an eye for art, a sweet tooth and he likes cute animals). It's also very interesting that there's no moment when you learn "the truth" about him the way you do with Zevran or Leliana. There's no big reveal about his life under the Qun before coming to Ferelden. He says he was sent to monitor the Blight, but honestly? If neither Ferelden nor Orlais knew there was a Blight, how could the Qunari know? I think he's lying, and he takes his secrets back with him when he leaves Ferelden. And yet I think I know him enough to say that a Warden who has become friends with him has nothing to fear from Sten.

One thing I find very interesting about Sten is how he thinks. His conversation about how women can't be soldiers has been analysed a lot on this page I think. He seems to be arguing based on a different paradigma than the one the Warden has. He also seems to have a very clear-cut view of the world. What is fascinating to me is that, when arguing with the Warden and learning about their culture, he is not necessarily becoming more lax about his worldview. I think it's more likely that he is expanding his paradigma, the structure of thought through which he understands the world. I don't think that he is now convinced that women can be warriors as well. I think he rather understands that, in Ferelden, the relationship between occupation and gender is different than under the Qun. Which of the two he thinks is more right or more agreeable, I have no idea. I'm also not very interested in that. But I find it fascinating how he always seems to be looking on quietly, gathering data, classifying it and trying to fit it into his understanding of how the world works. I wouldn't be surprised at all if his original party was a scouting party to see how vulnerable Ferelden was at that moment to outside forces. One thing I don't understand with all of this is why he urges the Warden to meet the Blight head on. No smart soldier would suggest that, except if they are foolishly proud (and Sten doesn't seem like that kind of guy tbh). I get that the Warden takes way longer to gather allies than expected because they first have to solve all of their allies' problems. But surely Sten sees the need to have allies? Is he just that impatient? Does he have a death wish (à la, I lost my sword and am without honour, better to die sooner than later and in glorious battle)? Was he his group's previous commander and is he now having trouble following somebody else's orders? Or maybe it's his way to make sure the Warden knows what they are doing? To push them into becoming the self-assured commander their allies will need once they're all gathered? I really don't know. I like the last option best, however.

For me, Sten is my fellow, more experienced soldier. Like Alistair, he can potentially be the Warden's brother in arms, but he's definitely the older brother here. He probably doesn't take kindly to tearful confessions of how hard everything is, but I feel like he's otherwise a solid rock to lean on. I feel like the Warden can trust him to do what is necessary and count on him no matter what, especially after they get his sword back. His devotion from that point on is honestly so powerful.

Wynne:

Wynne was such a support for my Warden (except with the whole conversation about love vs. duty and that she may have to choose between Zevran and ending the Blight and that she should therefore break up with him. Wynne had a point. Astala was so not willing to sacrifice her relationship with Zevran. But the whole conversation came at a point where she was already so disillusioned that she blew up in Wynne's face (”can i please just have one (1) nice thing????”)). But all in all, Wynne is great.

She has a lot of flaws. She was very marked by her life in the Cricle and, for all her age, she has little experience living outside of it. She is also a conformist despite her strong moral core. In a way, her ability to find peace with her lot in life impresses me deeply because it speaks to a lot of strength of character. Sadly, however, strength can be ill applied and used to suppress. I think she has convinced herself that the Chantry is right under (almost) all circumstances to be able to rationalize the life that mages live. She's had her son taken away from her as a baby and an apprentice killed. Her reaction seems to have been to convince herself that this was right, or for the greater good (and now I'm thinking about the Guardian's question at the temple of Andraste's Ashes; are you wise or do you just repeat what others have told you? The answer is not as clear-cut as it might be). This is why she is so irritated by Zevran and Morrigan. By aligning herself with the Chantry, she is, in her eyes, good. Zevran and Morrigan are not; they do not conform to Chantry morality and they defend themselves tooth and nails against somebody who would try and convert them. This is something Wynne never allowed herself to do; she always did the "right" thing and it has cost her so much. I'm not saying she was right (it would probably have done her some good to rebel from time to time, and to trust her own gut instinct more), but in light of this, it hardly surprises me that she's so judgamental. She has to be, or she would be forced to confront all the evil she has not fought against all those years and all the hurt that has been caused to her by the very institution she protects (and thank God she only tries to argue and can appreciate it when people have found a good life outside of her comfort zone. If she tried to convince by force or, for example, drag her former apprentice back to the Circle... boy oh boy that would get ugly). If you think about it, Wynne really is a good example for what happens if you live by a philosophy of always choosing the lesser evil.

Something that I keep forgetting over her grandmotherly and dignified character is how damn powerful she is. She has escaped the carnage at Ostagar; HOW!? She protected those mage apprentices in the Circle tower for God knows how long. In the battle of Denerim, she wades through an army and comes out alive on the other side. The wiki lists her age at 40, I think, but that doesn't make a lick of sense unless 75 years of age are the Fereldan equivalent to 100. This lady, about whom people make grandmother jokes, did all that. It's impressive.

Zevran:

You know, I would really love to know what Wynne thinks about the events at Kirkwall in DA2. It might be a disaster for her, or it might pave the way for one last bit of character development. She certainly didn't want to return to the Circle after fighting the Blight. That may be an indicator of some change in her stance on the Circle of Magi.

Edit: I forgot that she is what the Circle considers a literal abomination! Holy cow, how could I forget that?? Anyway, her conversation about what being an abomination means is so... heartbreaking, actually. It's so tentative. So careful. "Am I an abomination? Am I the same thing that has killed my students? The same thing as Uldred? Am I lost and damned? Did I invite this spirit in? Is this my fault?" Like wow, Wynne is going through something huge right there. I love it. I have to continue playing the game to see what it ends up as, but it's fascinating and such a huge thing that she allows the Warden in on that.

Ah, Zevran, my beloved (he has stolen my heart so much it's not even funny anymore). He's funny, he's charming, he's so so loyal and it breaks my heart. Zevran is the one about whom I've read most meta: these three wonderful posts for instance, as well as this one about his possible lack of scars, and this one about his lack of freedom. All of these have influenced my opinion of him and they are great reads.

I have talked about Zevran with you before, so I'll just skip to the new stuff. I have come to conclusion that Zevran is an artist at heart. This is totally not biased by the fact that I also do art, but hear me out. One of his preferred gifts are bars of silver and gold. While those have the obvious utility of basically functioning as money (they can be sold to any silversmith or goldsmith and their value is pretty stable through time and in different countries), there's also this from his codex: "Zevran shows an affinity for the finer things in life—hardly surprising for an Antivan Crow—but his appreciation can be more poetic than he lets on. A simple bar of refined silver or gold, uncomplicated by a craftsman's hammer, is elegantly valuable." Tell me that is not an artist's eye that sees that gold and sees the beauty in it. Then, there's also the meta about Zevran the Seducer which I linked above and link here again. It talks specifically about how he lets himself enjoy the target and be seen in his enjoyment. Tell me that is not an artist's eye that beholds the beauty of something he is set out to destroy. Even his talk about his assassinations show this. He talks about it as an art, the way somebody would talk about the brutal intervention in stone that produces a sculpture. Yes, it's a rationalization of the act of killing and yes killing is still wrong. But he doesn't go on about it on a moral tangent the way Alistair or Wynne would (”this person was bad, killing them was necessary”) or even through the argument of survival like Morrigan would (”it was either them or me and it sure as Hell wasn't going to be me”). He talks about the pleasure of a job well done, of the satisfaction of striking the precise point and executing a plan to the perfection so as to minimize chances of discovery and to make a clean death possible. And pleasure in seeing and in doing, this I firmly believe, is absolutely fundamental for an artist.

My favourite part about my Warden and Zevran as a pairing is that Zevran precisely brings out that ability to take your pleasures as they come and to really savour them. Fighting the Blight is tough; it's so important to find good things amidst the chaos to stay sane. If Astala saves Zevran from himself by offering him a place to stay and a purpose, Zevran saves Astala from herself by keeping her from running herself into the ground trying to save the world.

There are some things I don't like about Zev. The incessant flirting, for example, sometimes makes me uncomfortable (it becomes enjoyable for me once the Warden and him are in a relationship, but before that? Nah, no thanks). I wish he would also leave the other female characters alone (and there's so many more shameless comments of his aimed at Morrigan, Leliana or Wynne than at Alistair or maybe even Sten).

And that's my take on the Origins companions (this was rather long. Whew ^^' I hope it was still readable and that you enjoyed it!!) Thank you so much for the ask!! It's been a joy thinking about this. I was worrying at first that the less prominent companions like Sten or Shale wouldn't get as much content but... well XD

[clubmates-a]

y’know how i put a tl;dr of my general hcs for yuri in one big hc dump to expand on later? well, i’m doing it again, this time with miss sayori–let’s do this, yall! <3

>her parents are actually lovely ppl, (unlike yuri’s rip), it’s just their situation sucks, you know? i’ll make a more fleshed out post abt this later, but. well, tl;dr ???– >her dad is. very sick, he’d been in-and-out of hospitals for varying periods of time, eventually settling with home visits/care instead. which leaves her mom, often out working til the late at night and generally stressed out as she tries to keep a roof over her families heads, and pay medical bills in the same breath. >and that’s probably a big reason why sayori is. the way she is, bc she’s used to putting on that happy/brave face around her family, considering their situation. both to try and help them, and also to not stress any of them out further tbh?

>her love of literature surprisingly started young–telling scary stories at sleepovers, reading fairytales, playing pretend, making silly ocs, etc etc. she’s rlly good at improv + quickly brainstorming ideas, and. nowadays, she’s really into dnd and similar things. >she has a dnd group that has sessions online, since that was easier on her w/ her depression. but even that’s too much for her sometimes, she tries, though.

>since her room is on the second floor, when she wants to relax/be alone with her thoughts, she’ll climb out her window and sit on the bit of the roof underneath. >when her and MC were kids, they’d sit out there together and stargaze, but they haven’t done that in… years. but sayori still remembers it, and thinks of it fondly. >collects a lot of little enamel pins, stickers, action figures, and comic books! probably has a ita schoolbag and a flip phone with a cutesy charm attached.

>has a goldfish named ‘kerria’, her and MC rescued (by which i mean stole) them from a kingyo sukui booth at a festival when they were kids, around ten or so. >it was getting late, so the booth was getting taken down for the day, and there was only one (1) fish left, and. sayori was worried abt what would happen to them, so! she scooped them into a fish bag, while MC kept the stall keeper distracted. >let’s be real if they had just asked the guy about it, they most likely would’ve gotten the fish with a lot less fuss, but. hey, it’s a fun memory at least, ok…

>sayori was on the track team throughout junior high, but backed out before entering senior high, both bc of a low point in her depression + being stressed out in general. she spent the next few years hopping from club 2 club, trying 2 find somewhere she belonged once again. >but, well. she’d always end up getting kicked out after a few days, if she wasn’t outright turned away because of that unlucky reputation. >almost setting the cooking club on fire, trying to act out a scene and accidentally hitting s/b while gesturing in the drama club, tripping and falling into some of the newly finished pieces in the art club, etc etc. >she was. tbh, ready to just give up and attend the go home club instead, when monika suddenly approached her about the newly forming literature club! 👀👀👀

>sayori has a habit of doodling on anything she can get her hands on, her desk, her schoolwork, her skin, etc etc. she finds the action of scribbling away v relaxing. >it’s a good way 2 keep her mind off whatever might be bothering her, and it keeps her fidgety hands busy, y'know? her art is pretty decent too, round, cartoony and colorful, wouldn’t look out of a place in a kid’s book or something, to be honest! >being a comic book fan, she also draws her own sometimes, short ones mostly starring herself and her clubmates, about any misadventures they might have! >there’s def one abt the 'wine incident’……………………………....................

>sayori taught herself how 2 play ukulele as a tween, but her interest and will to practice slowly fizzled out as she got older. until recently that is, she’s started playing again w/ support from a certain club president! >sometimes, when one of them is having a particularly bad day, sayori and monika will skip class and hang out in the school’s music room, play s/t together, and talk about whatever comes to mind.

>sayori’s feelings on monika post-game (in the good ending) are… complicated, esp after becoming club president and dealing w/ all the self-aware stuff first hand. like, she understands it, in a way? >is she still mad/upset? obviously, they were friends, or at least sayori thought they were, but monika still… y'know. but after becoming club president herself? she gets it! because it kinda sucks! like a lot! so, cool motive, still shitty, but sayori does forgive monika in the end. >but, also: she isn’t sure if her forgiveness would even mean anything to monika, bc. does she still see them as ‘just code’, or what? i mean she brought them back for a reason, but… who knows. sayori hopes it’d make her feel a little better, at least. she misses her sometimes.

>she likes video games, even if she doesn’t play them as often as MC, she WILL kick ur ass in super smash bros + mario kart, and likes animal crossing. also, there’s an arcade in town, she’s the highest score on a lot of their games. >learning to bake from natsuki, but still can’t cook worth a damn–can and will eat breakfast stuff 4 every meal if u let her. (also rlly likes cheap gas station slushies) >has lots of little rituals, like not stepping on sidewalk cracks, sorting candy by colors before eating them, making wishes @ 11:11, etc etc. it might seem silly to others, but it rlly does bother her when she can’t complete them for w/e reason. >likes making braided bracelets bc she finds the repetitive task calming, has most def made the rest of the club + MC ofc friendship bracelets, all in their 'main color’. (blue for sayori, green for monika, pink for natsuki, purple for yuri, and red for MC.)

>sayori is a earring gay, she has lots of funky ones she switches out everyday or so, having special pairs for holidays and such. she often makes a lot of them herself, with her crafty skillz(tm).

[thehappiestgolucky]

This is mostly just a passing thought-turned-question I’m deciding to make your problem ask, but do you think anyone out of the bugs/group (be it mer au, lost in hisui, vigilante, or just good ol’ normal group o’ bugs) would enjoy DND? Apologies if this is a weird question btw ;w;

Ooo fun question! (I don’t mind this kind of question at all!)

I have way too many aus to keep track of, so I’ll probably just go with the good ol’ bugs to keep it easy lmao. I’ll also put it under a keep reading in case it gets long lmao-

So here’s the peeps I personally think would enjoy DnD:

Quirrel: Cmon, I feel like the game is made for him! A chance to weave an interesting and engaging story be he player or dm? I feel like he’d make a really good dm too tbh. I feel like the combat for him would be less engaging than the rp sessions - developing characters or lore feels far more interesting than rolling numbers to get the big hit on random mobs. He’s that kind of player to perception check everything because he loves exploring.

Grimm: Again, hes basically made for it - but this time in the player category. Specifically making the dumbest, most chaotic and fun characters to play as. He doesn’t go with op ones - he plays those characters that keep the dm on their toes and can potentially desynchronise or enhance the plot. Also just very good at the combat and rp side of it too. He is not above annoying players and dms - especially if Tiso is playing with him. Their characters would quickly develop the exact same bond as them: “Asshole” “Aww a pet name, how sweet >:)” chaotic best friends.

Tiso: Tiso is a sort of. I think he’d enjoy the combat and silly things you can do in DnD, but extensive serious rp can take him out of it big time. He would hate to be the dm - it’s too many things for him to keep track of and he’d end up going off track himself with combat. I feel like he’d engage in dumb one-shots, and dms (like Quirrel) that will account for his attention span and try to balance out a game for him that has plenty of combat scenarios to keep him engaged. He could maybe have small serious rp, to try to low-key vent or work through his own issues - but they’d be rare and he’d get moody afterwards until he gets distracted by a combat round or something.

Hollow: I feel like DnD is a perfect game for them to slowly embrace their own sense of self and acceptance. They’ve got a lot of trauma to work through and some hardcore projection onto a game can help them work through it without tackling those hard lessons onto themselves immediatly. Definetly a player, they have way too far to go to accept their ability to make a world as a dm, and would tend to be as minimal as a character as possible. Slowly you get to see their characters go from one sentence blank slates to getting more and more developed and realised - and oh it’s lovely <:)

Iselda: I think she’d like it! It gives her something to do whilst Cornifer is out afterall. She’s really good at the puzzle and combat side of DnD, but she’s engage with the rp as much as possible. I think she’s a more casual enjoyer - and maybe would dabble into trying to dm some one-shots should she get the urge to. As a dm - I think she makes a solid base and lets the players go ham and makes it up as she goes. It’s engaging enough that it’s not too noticeable.

Salubra: I think she’d make a really good dm, but probably wouldn’t enjoy being a player. She’d probably have a reoccurring character in any of her games that gets beloved by the players - so they don’t die but they don’t really benefit the plot or power at all. She just likes making funny lil guys.

Zote: It’s the power fantasy as a player. You know the ones - that take it too far and suck some joy out of it by trying to become the main character(tm). Fun to watch his ass get handed to him by a simply trap because of his dumbfoolery though-

Monomon: Another dm, one that’s easily noticeable more time goes into the worlds biology and ecosystem than the plot and characters. So instead her worlds get to be explored in the more abstract background world lense than what some other games are. Behold party - you are the Tiktik protectors now.

Lurien: In concept. He’s like me approaching DnD - adores the concept and imagines the sorts of characters and interactions he could have - enjoying at time with friends over a game. If he could actually do it that is. If he would try to rp he would go silent (mood) and trying to interact with players in a shift of their usual interactions can be scary (also mood)

Markoth…ish: So with Markoth, I think he’d be this really amazing dm and player. But he wouldn’t engage with it. He has enough trouble identifying moods and tone normally - and being in an rp session can throw him off. Plus, social interaction just isn’t his thing. But he’s here as someone who would be really good, engaging and actually save a party with his braincell should he ever do it with a close group he trusts.

Xero: On the contrary, I think Xero would really really enjoy DnD - the social butterfly that he is. But he probably sucks at it. Has most likely gotten multiple characters killed because he wasn’t paying attention to the trap warnings - but nobody minds his dumb moments. He takes it all in stride and more than makes up for it with his fun attitude and even sillier characters he brings out.

Isma: I don’t have much to say about her. I just… I just think she’d find it fun…

Same with Ogrim and Hegemol.

Annnd I can’t think of others. Not that the others would hate it - I just can’t think of anymore that would like it compared to their hobbies they enjoy more. Like Sheo would probably just prefer painting - no big major reason. Just vibes ig

What I Think The Bros Would Be Like Playing DnD Pt 1 Their Characters

Lucifer

Look, okay, Lucifer is like,,, a really boring old man, ok

So honestly??? He'd probably make some like really boring wizard or warlock or sumn and it'd look and sound and act exactly like him

Man doesn't have an ounce of creativity unless it involves making people miserable.

His character would be lawful evil, definitely, bc Lucifer, himself is.

As for race, Lucifer's a basic bitch so it'd probably be like an elf or a human.

And, honestly, he'd probably be a villain. Jus' sayin'.

Mammon

This bitch

Would absolutely be that bitch to make a fucking idealized self-insert and you can't change my mind.

It would definitely be a Gary Stu I mean come on

And he'd probably make it like a rogue or a thief to make himself seem cool.

Chaotic neutral. 100% chaotic neutral, no questions asked.

As for race, it'd probably be like a dark elf or a tiefling, something dark and mysterious, again, to make himself seem cool

He'd probably only join the main characters for the money.

Leviathan

OKAY SO LIKE I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT THIS BOY RIGHT HERE HAS LIKE A MILLION CHARACTERS WITH REALLY COMPLICATED PERSONALITIES AND BACKSTORIES I know I do

Though, the one he's most likely to use is, like, a really noble paladin or a cleric sumn like that

Would absolutely try to force himself into the main character role too.

And of course he'd be lawful good, bc why wouldn't he be

And this man's a total nerd, so he'd probably pick something like a Dragonborn, or a satyr, or even a centaur if he's feeling extra.

He's probably be the one to rally together the team to begin with.

Though, let's be real, Levi's most likely to be the DM over being a player.

Satan

Honestly, Satan's a nerd too so he's another candidate for DM.

But if he's not a DM, he's an animal and nature-lover, so he'd probably be a druid. Definitely one of those summoner types too, so he can summon a bunch of animal familiars.

Either that or he'd be a shape-shifting one, so he can turn into animals

He'd probably be somewhere between chaotic good and lawful neutral

He'd probably pick something interesting, like a changeling, or a shifter, or maybe even a genasi

He'd probably be the one to join the group for some spiritual reason or bc of his character's tragic backstory.

Asmodeus

He would probably be the more hesitant to play tbh

But if he does, he'd most definitely be a bard, no questions asked. He'd say something like, "Of course they'd want to hear my beautiful voice~!"

He'd also probably make an idealized version of himself too.

Probably, like, neutral good too.

And, honestly, his race would probably be some kind of elf, just because they're the prettiest looking ones.

Would probably join the group so he can meet hot people to seduce.

Beelzebub

What's a DnD? Is it something he can eat? He's hungry...

But, joke's aside, he'd probably be like a barbarian or a fighter, something tanky.

He's not that big on creativity either so his would also probably look, sound, and act like himself.

Probably like?? Neutral. Like, true neutral.

His race would probably be something like an orc, or a dwarf, something tough and brawny.

He would probably join the group just cause they asked him to lol. Like *shrug* ok.

Belphegor

*yawn* sorry what, he was sleeping. DnD? Sounds like too much work...

Alright fiiinnne, he'll play just tell him what to play as bc he's too damn lazy to pick for himself.

A ranger? Sure whatever.

That sounds joking, but that's probably exactly what he would do.

He'd probably make his character be just himself as well, not out of a lack of creativity but just that he's too fucking lazy to make an actual character.

He'd also probably be true neutral just because he doesn't fucking care lmao.

As for a race, he'd be a goblin a minotaur or sumn, bc not only someone said he should be, but also so I can make the cowboy pun haha.

He'd probably only join the team bc Beel did, tbh.

[caffernnn]

ok some tokyo boys dnd headcanons lets go

hiyori: the DM and probably the one suggesting they play. surprisingly he does really expressive npc’s and his villains are FUN (DM!hiyori just became very dear to me help)

ikyua: he’s IS that bitch and makes a thiefling ranger, dramatic backstory and all. hiyori makes fun of him for it and yes, he deserves it. he tries to play a cool character but it ends up being the one in the party everyone babies the most

asahi: he says all the magic stuff���s too complicated and makes a dwarf fighter, but he doesn’t end up fighting all that much because his character makes friends with the npc’s so easily (his charisma score is crazy high on accident but hiyori lets him keep it)

kisumi: also that bitch and makes a half-elf bard. the face of the party and usually the one to save the day with a well timed vicious mockery

haru: (he’d be a good DM honestly but definitely doesn’t have the time or energy for it lol) unsurprisingly, he makes a water genasi druid because uhh you can shape-shift into animals?? his backstory is like. crazy good and the party ends up mixed up in it quite heavily at some point

makoto: he’s the last one to make a character and hiyori mentions they don’t technically have a healer yet so... he makes a firbolg cleric that’s just. the sweetest thing? since there’s not really “winners” and just teamwork his competitive side doesn’t show and he can just embrace the support character life. but! clerics are still really strong fighters! also he could multiclass as a cleric/paladin at some point in the future

they start with a ready-made campaign but hiyori does end up writing his own story to better utilize all their characters skills and backstories as they go on. they’d definitely like to goof around and explore more than fight so he makes them fun puzzles and mysteries to solve. when they do fight it's almost always only against villains and npc’s because they quickly learn neither haru nor makoto’s characters (or they themselves tbh) like fighting creatures. it’s so bad it almost tears the party apart in their first session lol. kisumi’s bard and asahi’s fighter are an absolutely chaotic comedic duo that get them in trouble more times than they can count, but somehow they always manage to talk themselves out of it. in general the party’s dynamic mirrors their real relationships quite closely, but surprisingly haru’s druid and kisumi’s bard are unstoppable together on sneak missions and debates against villains

i’ll stop there so this doesn't take up my whole night but there’s so much potential here!

This is!! So good!! My new favorite thing!! DM!Hiyori would be such a good storyteller and they’d all get so into it 🥺🥺🥺

[edward-little]

If dnd miraculously existed in the 19th century which characters from the terror do you think would genuinely enjoy playing it? I think Fitzjames would enjoy it because it would let him self aggrandize, I also think Gore, Hodgson, and Goodsir would enjoy playing. Sir John and Irving would probably consider it blasphemous, Crozier would be to depressed to play I don't think little would have to much fun either, he'd overthink every possible action and it'd make him nervous.

eyyyy!!!!

hard agree on the fitzjames front-- he'd love playing characters, but i think he would have a good mix of obvious self-inserts made to gain approval by proxy and like, funny characters that he can play totally seriously but everyone else at the table cannot possibly keep a straight face with. high CHA characters across the board, though. lots of bards and sorcerers (my build for a fitzjames character is a variant human wild magic sorcerer with the lucky feat btw.)

fitz + gore + goodsir would be the dream party tbh. i get the feeling hodge would be a fun DM.

little would be too nervous to roleplay and would freeze up a lot but i think he'd be alright at combat if he picked a full martial character. fortunately i think he'd try to make a character with simple mechanics-- champion fighter is my guess. low CHA, decent WIS and INT, and then put more points into the physical stats. he'd be too nervous to enjoy the game but he'd want to be 1) included and 2) useful.

here's the thing: crozier would be too depressed to play. however. i think if a group mentioned needing a DM he'd be like "oh good luck finding one" and then let slip that he'd played a couple of campaigns back in the 80s (i know you said 19th century and i'm sorry i physically can't stop crozier from being a Dad) and it turns out "a couple of campaigns" means he was DM'ing on the regular and had a campaign that lasted five years AND that sir john had been in it for about three sessions before his character chomped it. his old group was him, sir john (for three sessions, playing a paladin), blanky, mcdonald, and jcr.

blanky definitely plays. he's played every class there is in every edition he's played, which is all of them except 4e. when he's approached to join a game he's already like a decade into a pathfinder campaign. he tends towards characters who are high WIS + one high physical stat-- rangers, monks, fighters, rogues, etc. he's the player who's always making the DM go "well i fucking guess you can."

mcdonald is usually up for a game, but due to his schedule he shows up every few sessions to play a character who sort of exists parallel to the party and intersects intermittently with them rather than a regular party member. he plays healers, because like yeah ofc. his longest-running character was a life cleric, and he likes to keep his character concepts simple and give them their depth and personality through roleplay.

dundy plays one of those backstory icebergs-- you know, like they're only ever a horny bard and sometimes they casually mention like "oh does this remind me of the sight of my destroyed village" and the players are like PARDON and he's like "anyway i'd like to roll performance to wink saucily." he could take or leave the mechanical aspects but lives for social encounters. hit him up if you've got a court intrigue campaign.

bridgens is another one of those used-to-play-back-in-the-80s types who's easily roped into a campaign (probably by peglar, maybe by goodsir though if he mentions they need another person at the table?) since he hasn't played in a hot minute and he's learning a new edition as he plays, he's a bit shaky on the rules (he's still on THACO, bless the guy) but he also pulls the most gamebreaking shit with no warning. he plays high INT characters and prefers spellcasting over hack-and-slash so he plays a lot of wizards, but my build for him is a lore bard.

collins is also new to the game, but joins because he's always up for communal fun-having. like little, he starts out with simpler martial characters, and opts for high STR builds because he likes to have the option to pick things (and people) up. he's the kind who likes grappling the level 20 necromancer so they can't cast spells with somatic components. as time goes on and he becomes more confident in his understanding of the game, he starts getting creative with multiclassing. he gets like 14 levels deep into his banneret fighter before multiclassing into shepherd druid. (my build for him is also a pretty neat multiclass if i do say so myself-- berserker barbarian/great old one warlock.)

i know we both mentioned hodge earlier, and i have a whole separate post about his character, but i think he'd enjoy the roleplay parts of dnd-- like dundy, call him if you're running waterdeep dragon heist or something-- but he'd freeze up during combat. it would be marginally better if he's playing a bard, because they know rather than prepare their spells and it saves him from having to read the entire class spell list at each long rest. he gets real creative with his bardic inspiration though, and enjoys picking songs to sing/play based on the character receiving the inspiration.

☀️🎡🌪️💗 for drake, emrys & thaddeus!

thank you tabby ^-^ // oc emoji asks

☀️ SUN - are they a morning person? what is the first thing they do in the morning?

Drake — I don’t think he’s much of a morning person tbh much prefers the evening/late hours and feels more energetic by that point. he spends a majority of his time at sea so I imagine the first thing he does after waking up is heading to upper deck to get some fresh air (if he’s on land that probably translates to opening a window or going outside for a minute).

Emrys — absolutely not lmao he grew up on a plane of endless night and still is adjusting to the sun/daytime even after living on the ‘material plane’ for over a decade. the nighttime is just his element and when he feels most comfortable. first thing in the morning he’s probably going for a walk/taking care of his various animals.

Thaddeus — feel like him being a morning person is the most In Character thing gotta say. just freakishly cheerful and wide awake minutes after getting up, ready to take on the day. first thing this man is taking a bath if he can (time to relax and think about what he’s gonna do for the day) otherwise he’s going for a walk.

🎡 FERRIS WHEEL - are they someone who wants to kiss at the top of the ferris wheel?

Drake — it’s probably something he’s never thought of tbh but if the opportunity came up he’d be down though it’s cute.

Emrys — in his heart he does truly! but he would be way too shy to go for it or even bring it up if the opportunity arose. I imagine Emma and Laurie could make it happen though!

Thaddeus — 100% he’d be out here asking people to ride the ferris wheel with him for this exact purpose.

🌪️ TORNADO - what is the biggest change you’ve ever made to them? how have they changed from their original version?

Drake — I think the only major intentional change I did was aging him up (before the campaign started I had him at like 18 I think? but changed him to be in his 20s session 1). honestly the fun thing about dnd characters is they always change slightly from the image you had in your mind when you actually play them. the original idea had of him was a more serious sea monster hunter but he kinda turned out to be this carefree guy just going through life moment to moment. he also turned out to be more insecure than I originally thought rip lol

Emrys — he honestly went through a lot of changes before the campaign even started. I kept debating what I wanted to do with his character and stuff. the concept I kinda settled on for session one was "super Serious and Grumpy RA annoyed with the students under his care". and well that lasted for like one session cause the player characters were so endearing and emrys warmed up to them almost immediately. also as I developed the game emrys turned out to be a lot more of an insecure awkward bean than originally intended but I LOVE HIM!

Thaddeus — I think in my original ideas I had him a lot more Gruff and Aloof around people he didn’t know but eventually I decided to just have him be peak Nice and Heroic and just go for it. overtime he’s just become more and more like that tbh it amuses me greatly to have such a Happy and Friendly witcher (at least on the surface we know this mans has the angst deep down).

💗 GROWING HEART - if they have a crush, is it noticeable? what changes when they’re in love?

Drake — I feel like him having a crush would be noticeable if one were paying attention, it’s in the lingering glances when his crush walks by and softening in his eyes when he listens to his crush speak. as far as change goes, he definitely latches onto the needs and wants of the people he loves and cares for. he truly is just drifting through life with no real goal so if he finds himself in love he will shift all focus to that person’s goals and desires.

Emrys — oh boy emrys having a crush is so very noticeable rip to him. he’s out here having looks filled with awe when his crush does basically anything in front of him. he also tends to blush a lot. in love he’s a lot more attentive but probably overthinks things more than he normally would it’s a double edged sword kind of.

Thaddeus — goodness I think him having a crush would be difficult to notice unless one knew him exceptionally well? he’s so – idk how to phrase it – he’s kinda got a baseline love for anyone he considers a friend. he’s such an affectionate and caring friend who flirts a lot so it’s kinda hard to tell who exactly he is crushing on at times lol when he’s like full-on in Love I think all of his selflessness and protectiveness just gets turned up to 1000% probably. all he wants is to support his loved on any way he can <3

[ready-to-obeyme]

[OM!] Demon Brothers + Hobbies 🏊

Lucifer

what free time

when he does somehow peel himself off of work, he enjoys ballroom dancing

i can just imagine him putting on a vinyl song, holding up his arms and doing the steps to the dance (1, 2, 3... 1, 2, 3) and god forbid someone tries to come in during this time because he’d be too embarrassed to be lenient on their punishment

i imagine he’s super into learning other couple dances too like tango and salsa, so when you get together with him count on being his partner!

i bet he also loves teaching other people things-- like genuinely, considering he is the oldest of the seven (his brothers just test him LOL)

incredibly patient when showing you the steps, taking pride in your improvement and growing warm at the thought of you being able to dance with him at the next chance you get

and his weakness???? online shopping on akuzon 

which, when you find out, makes him extremely embarrassed and depending on whether you have the same past time-- you may or may not buy everything on akuzon

on his home screen interaction dialogue, he says something along the lines of “Akuzon is too convenient... it’s easy to buy a lot of things” while blushing

so I’m thinking sometimes when he does take a breather from his workload, he scrolls on akuzon just browsing for things because it’s quick

and ends up putting like 5 things into the cart  that he doesn’t really need

doesn’t always follow through and buy everything, but he definitely has moments where he impulse buys and it’s gone to bite him in the butt when packages arrive in droves and his brothers are like ??? why are there so many things

Mammon

loves music-- both listening and making it!

likes making his own mixtapes and playlists

and when he gets to share it with you, he’s so nervous; but the giddy happiness he feels when you tell him that it’s good is SO worth the wait and time he puts into his music

he’d be happy just having his mixtapes and music to himself but being able to share it with someone makes it a lot sweeter

definitely makes playlists for and about you because sometimes the feelings he can’t put into words he can tell you through music

idk if he has a recording studio in his room, but i think it’d be pretty fitting if there was

probably gets into composing his music, rapping mayhaps??

at some point likes to DJ as well, though he’s not too good as it rn, but he definitely loooooves playing with the sound effects and tracks

all of these things are him being able to express himself-- put a twist on something that already exists or creating something on his own

it gives him a sense of freedom: to express himself and to do whatever he wants as he pleases

pretty well-rounded when it comes to playing instruments

when he puts his mind to it, he can probably learn anything

most likely already knows how to play the guitar and the drums

has a pretty good voice too tbh

Leviathan

swimming!!

he may be a shut-in, but ya boy has ocean decor, can control sea creatures, so it’s only natural he can swim and swim well

doesn’t do it as often since he prefers watching anime/playing games loads more, but he it’s definitely something he enjoys since it feels like his natural place to be 

considering his dream is to be a professional gamer, it’s not far off to say that he finds it his hobby to start off small and be a youtuber, probably posting reviews of games he’s played or even writing out walk-throughs online

actually loves going to concerts and cons

if he was a fan of hatsune miku you BET he’d want to go to her first live concert with her life-sized hologram, waving the glowsticks in unison with the crowd

would definitely go all four days of Anime Expo where he would be SO happy surrounded by people who can love the same things he does with the same passion

loves creating cosplay to go to these cons by hand; impeccable detail and intense dedication into the craft that shows his love for whatever he’s making

kinda shy about wearing it, but if you’re down to wear any of his costumes, he’d absolutely die happy

it’s just too much love for him to handle in one sitting 

and ofc, hobbies include board games, games, DND, all those!!

Satan

asides from reading, loves traveling when he can whenever he can

he invites you out to places because he enjoys discovering new things and experiencing new things and traveling is the perfect way to do all of that all the time

he’d enjoy hiking too-- on trails, through the wilderness, among the wild; just give him a backpack, an explorers hat, maybe a walking stick (just like the ones in the movies) and he’s on his way!

loves going hiking with you because he likes the way your face lights up at new scenery or the wonders of the world

likes that he can share this enjoyment and excitement of discovery with you because it feels like he’s sharing a little bit of himself too

indoor activity is snuggling in the covers and having movie marathons! and now that he has you and all your movies on DVD (lol) he can now enjoy so much more things

and when he finds out about Netflix, he is NOT sleeping for DAYS

“Satan... did you sleep last night?”

“couldn’t. the new season of How to Get Away with Murder came out.”

SLAM POETRY

doesn’t think he’s very good, but definitely likes writing down in his journal and even some scattered words that form a bit of poetry sometimes

really really shy about sharing it, but if you coax him a little, he’d be willing to show you (though you’ll have a hard time convincing him to show you poetry he wrote about you)

people have said, and I agree, cat cafe is definitely something he’d seek out and enjoy; literal dream come true

a house of cats that lucifer can’t ban him from LMAO

Asmodeus

has a very creative mind and deft hands meant for craft (among other things ahem)

as a fashionable person and a trendsetter, he’d love making his own jewelry and clothes, picking out the beads and metalware for the earrings or bracelets and feeling out the cloth and stitches for his outfits

if levi IS into making cosplay, it’d be such a nice way for them to bond together since Levi is pretty good with picking out material too

i like to imagine he enjoys making jewelry for his brothers too:

a stud earring for mammon, maybe convincing him to explore other options and wear other jewelry too

giving his brothers the options of clip on earrings if they wanted to try something temporary, gives satan a golden bracelet, lucifer a silver ring etc

suuuuuper supportive of you if you wanted any type of piercings and would absolutely love it if you wore his jewelry

god he would bedazzle you in all his jewelry and clothes if he could

another hobby is doing yoga!!

good for the body and soul uwu

definitely gives a good reason for any of his flexibility, or maybe it’s because he’s naturally flexible that yoga is calming for him

also loves to invite you to do yoga with him

you’d definitely get a bit steamy doing certain positions with him, but MOST of the time, he does encourage you to stretch, relax, and strengthen your body

Beelzebub

so athletic he could probably play every sport

i agree with the masses: he’d DEFINITELY be good at hockey

basketball too (just imagine Kagami from Kuroko no Basuke)

you know what they say about big hands

big, strong hands, good for crafting that involves a little more strength, but considering he’s a pretty tender and patient guy, is great at sculpting with clay, which extends to pottery as well

just imagine him sitting near a kiln, spinning the clay and using his hands to shape the curve and notches of a pot

considering how many plates and bowls he’s probably eaten, it makes for a good way to replace them HAHA

good at crafting with glass too considering it requires steady hands and strength to spin glass evenly

enjoys a lot of arts and crafts and loves giving them as gifts, especially if they’re made from his own hands

one of the main reasons why he started and likes doing these as a hobby actually

adores the look on you face when you created a glass terrarium for your plants or created glass ornaments dyed with your favorite colors

would definitely be the type of person to put his hands on yours as he teaches you how to shape the clay and have plenty of fun with you watching you try to make glass ornaments with or without success

Belphegor

during his waking hours, he loves to study the stars

loved to watch them in the human world, but without a night sky, he’s content with looking up for constellations in books from the library

if you buy him the cute lamp that lights stars onto the ceiling, he’ll find you so endearing because he’d enjoy lying in bed with you and just looking up at the lights and being in each other’s arms-- imagining the day he gets to do this with you for real, on a picnic blanket, looking up at the moon and stars

i imagine he’d like to doodle too

i say MAINLY doodles because they’re easier like drawing chibis or whatever thinks is amusing and lowkey keeps him awake (though Lucifer doesn’t like it when he draws on the desks)

does sometimes go all out and draw amazingly well, whenever the mood strikes him

when you ask him, he jokingly says you’re his muse; but honestly wouldn’t put it past him to have drawn a portrait of you, awake or asleep, at some point

surprisingly good at sewing-- or at the very least mending rips and tears

i feel like beel has a lot of ripped shirts (...from being, yknow, ripped) so he’s gotten pretty good at simple stitches, which eventually evolved into something more

didn’t start off as a hobby but he did eventually find it soothing to sew and embroider

levi and asmodeus adore his skills and he grumbles, but doesn’t ever say ‘no’ to them when they ask for his help

[crushzone]

Nin! I’ve been seeing this around recently, but I would love to see you ship your moots if it is ok! ♥️

Hahaha hey there, sure thing! It’s so difficult to be bias free because I know my moots’ crushes, but I shall do my best! I’ll mostly likely pair you guys with someone outside of your crush, just to introduce some new potential partner to your life ;). If I had left anyone out by accident, I am SO sorry!!

✨ Shipping my Moots ✨

@scorpiosanssexy

Sugawara Koshi - Lil sis, I am so sorry it is not Kei. I think Suga is absolutely hilarious and a sweetheart, I’m sure he loves it when you roast him here and there because he’d do the same right back at you. He’s also such a sassy man, so if sassiness is something you enjoy (*cough* like Kei’s, except he’s not a meanie 😠), he’s got it! If you do not know how to cook, neither does he, but you will get to suffer together. He’s also a teacher (which I know is also your thing), so let’s pretend he had to read so many books that he has to eventually get glasses! Will 100% dance real silly with you when you’re both tipsy, but please try to calm him down when he keeps getting ID��ed whenever he tries to buy booze, he’s got that forever cute baby face.

Look, I photoshopped him in glasses for u. ☝🏼

@ceo-of-daichi

Takeru Nakashima - Tbh, it was really difficult not to go with Daichi for this one. I know Takeru may not suit your appearance preferences, but I think you guys would be a very adorable pair! He is very family oriented, had grown up with a bunch of siblings, is a team captain (i know u like captains 😉), and seems like a sweet guy in general. So he will 100% be a fun pal to joke around with, but he’s also really responsible and will take care of u on your night outs. I can see you with his little family cheer squad, they are all just in love with you and consider you a part of their family. 10/10 husband material with that A+ domestic lifestyle.

@honey-makki

Saeko Tanaka - I shall pair you, my queen, with my other queen, Saeko. 👑 Together, you are unstoppable, and just the sight of you both hanging out together would make me run away because I tend to do that whenever I am near anyone attractive. Imagine Saeko picking you up on her motorbike just to go grab some dinner downtown together. All the jokes you’d share, how loudly you would laugh with each other, regardless if whether you are in a public or private place!! She’d probably help you proof read your fics and brainstorm any spicy scenarios with you too! Bet she loveees having you lay on her chest as she strokes your hair, alternatively, she also loves being your big spoon. 🥺

@heauxzenji

Kuroo Tetsuro - My other queen, I shall offer you my nerdy king, Kuroo. 👑 Idk man, appearance-wise alone, I already think you’d both be such a beautiful pair. You two are definitely the type of couples on Tik Tok (or whichever apps people use now a days LOL 👵🏻) with a bunch of “relationship goals” in the comments. He’d be a lot of fun to joke around with, will take great care of you, loves to smack your booty (respectfully) because he knows you are absolutely beautiful, and will call you the cutest nicknames. He also secretly reads your spicy fics without telling you, and will maybe try out a new thing or two from it the next time u guys baaaaang. 💥Spiciness aside, he cherishes all your quiet moments, just sitting next to each other as you sip on some tea, your books in hand as you lean shoulder to shoulder against one another.

@tedwardos

Azumane Asahi - idk, I think you both would be incredibly adorable! He is basically kind of like Yams but with a whee bit more softness. He absolutely loves to cuddle, play video games with you (but please go easy on him, he’s a little scared of certain games), and learn new things (e.g. playing DnD for the first time). Tbh, I think he would be great at DnD because he enjoys the imagination and character design aspect, bet his characters are always the best dressed one. Will help style your hair, cook you breakfast, give you shoulder massages, and just spoiling you in general, as long as you hold him close and tell him you love him every now and then to keep him well assured. You’ll never get cold during winter, he’s basically a human furnace who always make sure your feet are covered by the blanket when you cuddle on the couch.

@nonexistent-social-life-mainacct

Akaashi Keiji - I genuinely think this would be a wonderful match. Firstly, he is a wonderful listener, so he’s there for you to come home to after a tough day at work. If it is not something he can actually help you with, he will do his best to cheer you back up after you had gotten everything off your chest. Secondly, look at this 👇🏼

Girl, he will PROTECT you from all those mysterious bruises that tend to appear on your legs haha. Lastly, I know that when he loves someone, he will do all these adorably thoughtful things for you: like massaging your feet, leaving you cute post-it notes before he leaves for work and buying you flowers randomly. I just, I just want the best for u and I KNOW Akaashi will not disappoint at all.

@mer92

Tadashi Yamaguchi - ok hear me out! Baby boy had been crushing on you from a distance for the longest time, he just absolutely admires how you are so hardworking and passionate towards your dream job. He sees how much you care for your friends and he’d always wished he could be a part of your group too. Eventually, when you are both together, he is a wonderful listener, will go out of his ways to spoil you just to see you smile again. He will give you shoulder massages when you are being too tense, and if anyone gets in the way of achieving your goals, he will step up and defend you. Will also buy extra onigiris from Onigiri Miya and bring them to u for lunch, just to make sure that you don’t accidentally skip any meals because you’re too laser focused on your studies! Speaking of studying, he loves studying with you, and is actually a wonderful work buddy. (Always sneaks a glance at your adorable concentrated face)

@danibby

Kotaro Bokuto - Bokuto ADORES you with all his heart omg. When he catches you dancing or choreographing, he will straight up sway or beg you to teach him some moves, before proceeding to absolutely crush it. If he sees you trying out or applying some makeup/skincare products, he will ask you if he could watch or play with it too. Basically, he loves you so much, he just wants to understand and be a part of what you are doing, while he’ll also do the same where he’d teach you the little things he loves to do (will probably try to get you to play volleyball with him ahah). Is fantastic at cheering you up when you are not feeling too good about yourself, and will tickle fight you until you smile for him. Speaking of tickle fights, initiate it at your risk, because he is hella strong, he’ll pin you down or pick you up really easily to his advantage. BIGGEST HYPE MAN, you can walk out, wearing a trash bag and he would still be 😻😻😻.

@shhhlikeme

Aran Ojiro - I know I’m not being too original with this pairing because you actually crush on him to begin with, but you two are just perfect for each other tbh (was going to pick Toshi at first, but thought Aran would be a better fit)! Firstly, you are both absolutely S T U N N I N G ✨, I would be SO intimidated to come anywhere near this power couple. Secondly, you’re both so diligent, kind, and smart, everyone looks up to the two of you, wishing they could be you (Keep wishing, peeps 💅🏼) . Lastly, he seems like an absolute sweetheart, loveeeeees to spoil you with random hugs, kisses, and gifts, and will joke around with you a lot. He’ll find any way he could show you off to his friends, and they’d all be so jealous. It is nice to know that you can always lean on him if you ever have to, and he knows he could do the same with you. Bet your family absolutely LOVES him too, 100% the kind of guy you would want to bring home.

@bjbex​

Yu Nishinoya - Noya is IN LOVE with you, he thinks you are freaking beautiful, is a hottie, and basically his queen. He’d keep crushing on you until you finally give him a chance. When you are together, he’d do anything to please you, ultimately, he just wants to see you smile and happy all the time. He’ll crack some jokes and be a little goof just to cheer you up! Also wants you to freaking DOMINATE him hahahah, trusts you completely, please do as you would like, he’s all yours. Loves getting his lil booty smacked and pegged, but is also always down to pleasure you. Just grab him by his hair (loves getting his hair pulled) and put him in any position you want him.

Will pull some “accident” like this often, so please prepare yourself. Will travel the world with you and take a ton of photos, then proceed to set photos of you as his wallpaper/lock screen on every device.☝🏼

@dymphnasprose

Tendou Satori - Tendou ADORES YOU, for real, he freaking ADORES you (But I adore you more, so he can back down 🤚). He loves to be your little spoon (will literary purr if you give him head rubs), boasts about you to his friends all the time (especially to Toshi), likes to endearingly tease you a lot, and will cook you some nice food all the time (he probably went to culinary school, after all, to become a chocolatier). The first thing he does when he gets back home from work? Hunt you down and immediately cling on to you as he pepper kisses all over your face with that oWo face, if ya know what I mean. Also LOVES to get freaky, this man is flexible, he just loves being intimate with ya, so tell him what you want to do and he will most likely be down to at least give it a shot. ;) Also loves to randomly buy you some cute clothes or jewelry you had been eyeing, he doesn’t do it often, but he’ll spoil you with it here and there when he can. Loves to sing random songs for you, “Dymph-nuhhh, Dymph-nuhhh, my darlin, Dymph-nuhhh~~”

@pleasantanathema

Akiteru Tsukishima - Let me start off by saying that I am absolutely in love with Akiteru, and because I love him so much, I shall pair him with you! Lauren, I am in love with you from the very first moment you’ve hit me up, I feel like our vibes match and because I feel the same way with Akiteru, I believe he would really vibe with you too! He’s an absolute sweetheart who will go out of his ways just to make you happy, you’d both spend hours chit chatting about the most random things, just giggling constantly, and before you know it, it’s already really late at night. He LOVES taking photos of you, and his phone is filled with photos of the two of you. Kei doesn’t really care much about you, but Akiteru will keep bringing you up in conversations with him anyway because he’s just extremely grateful to have you in his life.

@afictionalwhore

Ittetsu Takeda - Listen, as much as I believe Keishin is the perfect man for us you, Takeda is another husband material, adorable man who would also be just as perfect.

LOOK AT HIM REALIZING THAT HE IS IN LOVE WITH U. Also Keishin looking like a snacc right next to him, but this post is not about him mmkay?

Takeda is so weak for you, he’ll spoil you rotten where he can, and his affection bank is unlimited, will constantly remind you that he loves you. He’s also really shy, so sometimes, he’ll try to be “sexy” and initiate something, only to stutter and blush terribly when he attempts to execute it, so please be kind HAHA (I think find that really endearing tbh). Fully understands how tiring it can be to work with children, he is also a teacher after all, so at the end of each day, you’ll both take warm baths together, cuddling as you laugh about all the silly things your kids had done today. Sometimes he will help substitute for you too, if you ever need to take a day off.

I’m very proud of this list, ngl, I stand by my ships 😉

[streetsteel]

@infernalpursuit​ sent:  AU ASK! imagine your muse in the last game you played. how are they? are they any different?

SO UHM DO YOU MEAN VIDEO GAME OR GAME GAME?? Tbh I’ll do both because why the fuck not. 

My last hours in a video game may or may not have been spent in Mass Effect hell, which, hello I fucking love this game please let me marry Garrus Vakarian ok BUT

For Jay to work in this universe, he’d probably be a Quarian (read: one of these funky, very good with tech buddies). Yep, one of these. 

Ok yes their immune system is shit and they live in suits that keeps them safe from external contaminants at all times but they’re hecking. Excellent fighters and very good with technology (there’s a story point with that if you haven’t played ME, it’s actually pretty plot-central). Jay would probably have left the Quarian flotilla to do mercenary/engineer work for whoever pays best. I’m sensing an Infiltrator class for him if we go by game mechanics (mix of tech/combat skills tree). Still very much in deep to keep his little sister healthy and safe. Probably ends up in a lot of trouble. Same old, same old.

FOR THE GAME-GAME WELL. It was DND. Duh. 

For the longest time, I was thinking tiefling because of the aesthetic, but the more I’ve been thinking about it, the more I’ve been thinking ‘oh fuck, fallen Aasimar works way too well with that angsty sack of shit.’ So yeah, let’s go with that. That’s a good racial pick for him. For the class, I’d probably go with something like a rogue (soul knife)-monk (sun soul) multiclass, Just to be an absolute Bitch in a fight. 

Also we know how much of his original storyline is already so defined by the themes of closure and growing into oneself, and it’d just be that but times 10000. With a possibility to have a change from fallen to scourge aasimar through character growth for the  ✨ ✨ dramatic narrative  ✨ ✨

[eorzean-capitalist]

A story, a true one, about stalking.

This was around 1993.  The college I was attending had just gotten an internet connection.  We had a lab full of VAX computers (dummy terminals linked to the campus’ main system).  It was the first time many of us had experienced the internet, myself included.

It was great for getting email from professors, friends, etc.  One of my friends also told me about this game he was playing that I might like.  He was part of my table top gaming group (Vampire, DnD, etc), and knew I’d probably like this one.

The game was Ghostwheel.  An RPG MOO.  (MUD object oriented, for those of us oldies who remember MUDs, MUXes and MUSHs.)  I created a character, got out and RPed with others.  It had a combat system as well.  One of the first online MMOs, tbh.  Just text based.  I met a lot of new people this way.  People from all over the US and even the world.  We formed bonds through RP and such.  

One of these people was a guy who had a character named COLLOSUS.  (He had it in all caps, yeah.)  He and I began RPing, and talking in OOC as well.  He was nice, kinda flirty, and interested in me.  I wasn’t really interested in him.  I had a crush on someone else at the time.  But it was nice to talk to him, and we became friends.  

One day, he asked for my phone number so we could talk.  Naive as I was (I was 19), I gave it to him.  He called me that night and we talked until like one in the morning.  Learned a lot about him.  He lived in Florida, he was in his mid-30s, he had a white collar job at a call center.  He asked me about myself, what I was studying, what school I was attending, and lots of other personal information about me that seemed innocuous at the time.

He asked for my email, too.  He emailed me every day, and I tried to respond when he did but hey, college life.  Finals were coming up, I was busy studying, writing papers.   He started to get a little grumpy I wasn’t replying right away.  Began calling me at my apartment, too.  Wanted to talk for hours, even after I told him I needed to study or I had college activities or I was going out with friends.

I got tired of the pressure to always pay attention to him.  So that summer, away from the VAX system, where I couldn’t log into GW or get email, and I was home so the phone at my apartment had been turned off, I realized I wasn’t comfortable around him anymore.  

So that Fall, on returning to school, I decided I’d just start ignoring him.  He sent me pages on the game every time I logged in, wanting to know why I had ignored him all summer.  I paged him back to let him know that I had been home for the summer, and couldn’t as I had no access to the school’s computers.  He didn’t believe me.   Started accusing me of avoiding him (I kinda was).  So I told him to stop talking to me and I put him on ignore.  

He logged in his alt, tried to page me again.  I ignored him there, too.  So he created a new character, and again paged me.  I got tired of it and logged out completely.  Created a new character, and ran around on that with him not even knowing who I was.

That’s when he started emailing me.  I emailed him back to leave me alone.  Rapid fire emails after that, begging me to talk to him.  I logged out and went home to my apartment.  Somehow, he had my new number (this was before cell phones were everywhere), and he called me there.  I gave him and talked to him for a bit.  He apologized to me, said he’d be better about giving me space.  

This didn’t last long at all.  Soon enough, I had put his characters back on ignore.  I got so tired of him trying to contact me in game, I logged out and started playing another game called Cybersphere.  Where he wasn’t, and he didn’t know who I was even if he did start playing there.

That’s when the emails went off the rails.  My inbox could only hold around 100 emails.  I’d log in in the morning, and my box was full.  Just him emailing me again and again.  I’d delete them all, but the next day my box was full again.  Hundreds of emails, I couldn’t keep up with it.  Fast as I’d delete them, he’d send me more.  

He began calling me at my apartment.  Leaving messages on our answering machine because we both refused to answer.  It was just creepy as fuck, sometimes.  My roommate finally put a stop to it by answering the phone and telling him I’d moved out and to please stop bothering her.  

Finally, somewhere I was getting some peace.  Or so I thought.  

He got my parent’s phone number and began calling them on the weekends (he knew I spent weekends at home usually).  My father answered the phone and told him if he didn’t stop calling he was going to kill him.  

I was at my wits end.  I logged into GW and talked to someone about it.  She encouraged me to go to the head Wizard of the game, a guy who went by the name of Quinn on the game.   He was known for being hands off.  Didn’t like to get involved in drama, usually told people to behave and just ignore folks who were bothering them.

I was skeptical, but she was insistent.  So I sent him a page and asked him to talk.  He pulled me into his private chamber on the game and I spilled my guts. I told him about all the stalking that’d be going on, and how my grades were slipping and this is why I hadn’t been logging into GW lately.

To my surprise, he didn’t just brush it off.  He gave me his email and asked me to forward him some of the emails.   I picked the worst ones, the ones where he was threatening to rape me, and forwarded them.   Quinn was quiet for about ten minutes.  Then came back and told me he’d take care of it, and moved me back into the game world.

Later that day, COLLOSUS logged in.  I did a ‘WHERE’ and saw he was in Quinn’s office.  They were in there a good 45 minutes or close to.  Then COLLOSUS logged out.  And never returned.

No more emails., No more phone calls. No more attempts to contact me. I never heard from him again.

Quinn never told me what he said to the guy.  I didn’t ask.  But I was damn lucky he was able to put a stop to it.  Most stalkers are not so easily deterred.  

After that, you bet your sweet bippy I was very careful about who I gave my personal info to.  

[mothric]

you play dnd? what characters have u made 👀

well ok I must shamefully admit I haven’t played ;-; I’ve been wanting to for a very long time but I just haven’t had the kind of time required (and I’m also kind of intimidated by all the numbers and intricate details tbh)

BUT I Did preemptively plug my OC Erlend into a character sheet, should I ever have the opportunity to be in a game for reals (using Pathfinder so he’d probably have to be tweaked a bit, depending). 

originally he’s a half-human wizard who uhh basically airbends by strumming his guitar with feeling (don’t judge me)

but for the purposes of DnD he’s a bard and a sylph, which is the closest I could get to ‘magical musical wind wizard’ ahaha. his stats are probably less than stellar cause I am Not Good at numbers I just wanna get to the Story and the Adventure BUT HEY he’s ready to go, whenever i like… graduate and have too much time on my hands in the awkward period between School and a Real Job (’:

[clementineviolet]

TWDG + D&D

Everyone has very strong opinions about what roles each of the kids would play

Courtesy of @cat-storekeeper

Clem- I would say fighter or rogue simply because she's tough and fighters and rogues are pretty tough and versatile. Moreso fighters because rogues are more sneaky. 

AJ- Baby. Honestly DND classes get pretty diverse as you go on so this is TBD as he's learning. Most likely a fighter like Clem.

Violet- With her aloof nature and sick cleaver, a rogue for sure. They sneak, they're usually pretty emo and edgy and are the class equivalent of a cat that has suspiciously long claws. 

Louis- Bard. Uses magic to sing as well as his viciously good looks. Bards are notorious for fucking up any campaign and Louis seems like the type to do just that.

Marlon- A Barbarian. Could be a marksman (ask your fellow DM, Lee Everett) but because they enter a battle rage, this is most fitting for Marlon. 

Brody- We don't know a lot about this girl but I think she'd do well as a ranger. She seems like a really nature-y gal.

Aasim- Wizard. He like to write and read books, probably, and wizards are "scholarly magic-users". 

Ruby- She seems like a nice Christian gal and probably serves as the healer of the group, so cleric for her.

Rosie- A good girl!

Mitch- There IS a demolitionist class in 5e which is so him but if I had to choose something else probably a really wack Ranger. He go boom! 

Willy- I have no clue tbh. He could be a rogue if he really wanted to. 

Tenn- I think Tenn would lean towards being a sorcerer (maybe Minnie and Sophie were sorcerers too) or a wizard, relying on books n stuff like Aasim.

Omar- I also haven't got the faintest idea but he'd do well as a Monk.

(AND APPARENTLY I WOULD BE A BARD)

@littlelockey also chimed in: 

Aasim would play a fancy spellcaster that he put way too much thought into just to end up with shitty rolls

And I can’t see ruby being anything but a cleric lmao

Thanks for your input nerds <3
