The thing about Octavia is she's always waging psychological warfare with herself so if there's blame to take she jumps on it like a grenade even if the situation was unavoidable even if it wasn't her fault at all. She won't admit to anything she feels out loud but she will fall on a thousand swords on purpose

Raven never actually doing anything evil or falling into that is so special to me. Everyone expects her to. The way people treat her, she has EVERY reason to and I wouldn’t hold it against her. But despite the fact that no one believes in her or views her as not-evil, she still never wavers on her values. No one recognizes her for it or sees her any different yet she still does it because it’s the right thing!! I LOVE HER SO MUCH!!!

allison’s grief of her daughter leading her to murder viktor’s son-figure and then make him the bad guy for also grieving the loss of a child is genuinely one of the most insane 180 character arcs i’ve seen from a show in years

a personal headcanon i have about misa is that she plays into the "dumb blonde/bimbo" sort of trope to appear more docile to others while keeping her real agenda hidden. but Also, upon meeting/becoming infatuated with light, i think she plays it up even more because she's realized that he loves explaining basic shit to anyone that will listen... she is in fact a silly goober, but she definitely has a prominent side that is intelligent and calculating

May I ask for some details about your Tav? What do you mean by hasnt really lived as a tiefling before? Like literally has never seen another tiefling? Seems like being abducted by the mindflayers introduced major life changes to your Tav

I'm sorry this took so long to answer, but I ended up doing a whole bunch of art to answer this!

Ember has a really extensive backstory that's kind of long, but the short version of it is: she was caught in the crossfire of a deal her parents made with a devil. They couldn't have a child of their own because her mother was too severely ill, so they made the deal in the hopes of returning her health and along with it the ability to bear children. Unfortunately devil deals being what they are, they ended up with Ember who the devil stole from her birth parents.

Her mom was a high elf and her dad a half-elf, and her mom's side of the family were quite vocally anti-Tiefling. Because of her mother's health problems, however, they couldn't just sever contact with her parents because they relied on their money to cover the cost of healers, expensive potion ingredients and the like. They couldn't be trusted not to be a threat to Ember though, so the decision was made to disguise her as their biological daughter throughout her childhood.

Here's an age chart!

As a result, Ember didn't even know she was a Tiefling until she was around 4 or 5, when she began to present as a sorcerer and accidentally undid the disguise spell (she ends up a bard thanks to her mom, but her control of magic comes from sorcery).

Before the events of the game, the most time she ever spent as a Tiefling was when she was 13- when her mom died and her dad disappeared, the disguise spell having relied on her mum's magic. She went through hell for a while after that and as soon as she could learn how to cast the spell herself, she jumped at the chance and went back to living as her old half-elf self. So when she gets taken by the Nautiloid, it's her being forced to actually live as her real self and as a Tiefling for the first time. As a result she doesn't have great control over her tail, because she's just straight up not used to having one.

She also spends a lot of Act 1 jumpscaring herself whenever she walks by a mirror lmao.

I do plan to do some comics that are set earlier in the game at some point, and those ones will explore more of her backstory. What I've done so far has just happened to be set in Act 3, after she's already sorted a lot of her shit out. I just have no idea when that'll actually be!

I'm not listening to a white person on what's racist or insensitive to brown people. read orientalism by edward said before talking to me or my son ever again

anya + flinching at loud noises and sudden movements (vs dmitry noticing, adjusting his behavior, and becoming a source of comfort)

i do hope that they don’t completely erase ava’s legitimate interest in learning. and all of her character development. like yeah it wouldn’t be as funny without her acting a little careless but at the end of the day she did clearly really love going back to school, and she has been able to make clear improvements to abbott already.
