i just realised i’ve never done a comparison from pre-t to now (8ish months)

Honestly I'd really like to see a mxtx3 story where wwx and xl work with Sqq to reveal sqq's true backstory and the system to lbh.

I mean, think about it!! One of the biggest problems with scum villain is how even though they get together, unlike the other couples bingqiu is still left with all these huge secrets that massively affect them both. Lbh is left believing he married his mercurial abuser, that his suffering passed some sort of indefinable test that proved him worthy of basic rights. That Sqq threw him in the abyss of his own volition. That Sqq was really sacrificing his life and not faking his death with intent to survive.

Sqq is left knowing all these things but unable to act on them, unable to tell his husband about his own past, unable to explain his actions, never able to fully let his guard down because he's supposed to be shen qingqiu. He can't even tell his own husband his original name!! If he could have, he would have, even if only in the extras!

But can you imagine???

A meeting of bingqiu, wangxian, Hualian, for whatever reason, and as the three (actual) protagonists chat and gossip and get to know each other, as they talk, Sqq is at ease enough to slip up and finds out he can talk about the system to anyone from outside pidw! Not just sqh!! Maybe not completely, but he can mention some, and the other two, concerned for their new friend, are clever enough to tease the rest out. They're horrified. Sqq is resigned but freshly hopeful.

And so begins Mission: Save Sqq's Marriage!

(Sqq would very much like to contend the title but he is out voted.)

I'd just love to see the three of them (with unquestioning aid from their husbands) get up to hijinks and face existential horrors on a quest to help bingqiu get the closure they need. And moshang too, I guess XD.

It'd also be very, very funny to have them all in the middle of the latest traumatic and/or mortifying scene look around at the other two like 'hey, aren't you supposed to be freaking out now? This is normally the part people start screaming' and the other two are like 'I mean I guess?? We've got things to do though' like kings of unflappable repression right there.

(and lbh and lwj having vinegar-offs while hc is sighing dreamily watching his husband make semi decent friends for once)

Like there's a bunch of crossovers but none really scratch that itch, you know? The main characters of all 3 mxtx?? There's so much potential for Truly Unhinged Shenanigans!! Wangxian visiting pidws wife plot filled world and disappearing into the wilderness for a full week, coming back with every single piece of clothing they brought ruined. Hualian go visit mdzs and and no one believes xl is a diety and hc chomping at the bit to kill them for the injustice. Bingqiu going to tgcf and lbh getting mistaken for a calamity, or Sqq falling into the one wife plot kidnapping or something intended for a diety.

But seriously imagine Sqq complaining about something and wwx and xl immediately going 'that's not right! You deserve better!!' and Sqq is like 'no it's fine I'm used to it' and the other two slam their fists on the table like 'no!!! If [husband] was forced to keep that kind of secret I'd hate it!! You two deserve to be properly happy!! Let us help! We can fix this!' and start working with zeal and vigor while Sqq trails along embarrassed half heartedly muttering 'it's not that bad >:/'.

And when it works (presumably some clever loophole they stumbled on) and bingqiu are tearfully kissing they share a low five without looking. Or that one meme where the person getting kissed holds their hand back and their wingman enthusiastically high fives it but there's two wingmen XD!

I don't knowww but it'd be such a good premise! Ripe for character interactions!! Fluff! Crack! Angst! Daytrips and pouring their hearts out to people who'd really understand! Xl wwx and Sqq bestie team up! Meeting moshang! Wwx info dumping about his monster index categorisation to an enthralled Sqq! Xl and Sqq bemoaning etiquette while wwx laughs at them! Xl and wwx having intense discussions about morality and righteousness! All three of them laughing at how oblivious they were about their husbands, each trying to one the other two for Dumb Moments They Should Have Realised (Sqq wins by horrifying the other two)!

Forget cross country kidnappings and being locked in a room! Where is my protagonist trio getting into trouble on a self imposed mission to help their friend! Let their magnetism for insanity shine!!

Shockingly underrated thing about Leo is that he’s legitimately charming when he wants to be?

He’s the Faceman! He’s persuasive! That’s not just some random title he gave himself with no backing to it. People will listen to him. Even if they think he’s being annoying or if they’re upset at him, people listen to him anyway! There’s a reason his bros push him out front to talk to people, and when this happens, that talking nearly always works.

Moreover, Leo knows people. He looks at them and takes into account how they act and what they’re like as he makes his way through the conversations. It’s easy to forget this aspect of Leo’s character because he only brings it out when he really needs (read: wants) to, but it really is a notable part of him that always love to see.

And I say charm in particular because he has a knack for not only getting people to pay attention, but for getting people to stay and listen to what he has to say.

after the events of three in the morning, safe inside Athena just kinda tucked ody under her wings.

Idk why I think that but anyway it's cannon now that after ody gets thoroughly fucked Athena pulls him close and wraps her wings around him like a cocoon

yessss she sort of chirrups and coos down at him with the owl head tilting, nuzzling at him as she cleans up. she'd do it to penelope too but homegirl is practically steaming from how overheated all the exercise made her so she just goes and usually falls asleep face down on the bed until she's cool enough that athena can drag her closer as well.

in general i think athena would be there for the aftercare because I don't see post canon odypen knowing when to call it quits, which leads to both of them being absolutely exhausted and useless after the last round. she usually just rolls her eyes shakes her head and handles it all; but they both know she's awake for hours just trilling down at them and staring happily.

when your first impression on the carpenter's hot son goes wrong just yell "plot twist!" and move on ✩

yeah no jia didn't really give seb a good impression upon first meeting eachother ... it took sebastian a good while to warm up to them because of this (ill draw it... evnetually)

this is based off my gameplay when first encountering sebastian 😭😭 i didnt know you need 2 hearts w a villager to enter ur room (he wasn't there atp) and when i tried to leave he was blocking the way so i just stood there... until he had the "..." speech bubble and ran past me it was SO EMBARRASSING

this is their current impressions of eachother! maybe when i post more comics i'll update it !!

close ups below the cut as always sorry for a super duper long post LOL

face cards......

this is so can we pretend airplanes in the night sky are shooting stars i could really use a wish right now wish right now wish right now

ok i have tried to contain my excitement but i need to gush about this publicly i am sorry. I went to a flea market on Saturday and impulse-bought 4 swords as an early birthday present for myself and my family somehow does not appreciate that this is the best $100 i have ever spent

(they all have scabbards except the gold one)

-The one all the way on the left is a pretty high-quality replica of a Scottish broadsword. they normally have fabric inside the guard, I dunno why this one has cardboard covered in red duct tape instead? I might try to replace it if/when I get my hands on a scrap of red velvet. but yeah this thing just like, feels good to hold. hefty but not unwieldy. makes me want to do evil stimming

-The saber is similar to one i already had (thus the dual wielding, gabriel ultrakill style)- they both have what I'm like 99% confident is Arabic text on the blade but sadly i have no idea what either of them says. not the highest quality (the scabbard was covered in really ugly purple fabric for some reason?) but hey it was $10

-i'm not really sure if the gold sword is From something or if it was just made to look cool. but hey it was $10

-All the way on the right is (according to the guy I bought it from) a replica of a mid-19th to early 20th century British/Spanish short sword. Price tag on that one had $225 scribbled out, I got it for thirty bucks. i love flea markets

I have discovered Ambessa Medarda for the first time

Here's a silly video I made

[wolfsong-the-bloody-beast]

I've said it already somewhere in the tags, but I'll say it again. I like to imagine (headcanon) that one of the reasons Varric recruits Rook is that he's already seen what a bunch of disaster bisexuals without therapy can do. So, finally in a leadership position himself, he sees Rook, who's great at stubbornly bullshitting through impossible tasks and radiates emotional intelligence, and he's like, "Yeah, this one."

Who's awesome swapped with?

I just realized there isnt really a character to go with his role swap.. but he seems pretty chill, so what if it was Jeff?

I think it'd make sense!! Jeff and Wander are friends and Hater and Awesome are enemies, so it'd work to swap their relationships

Awesome could even encourage Wander to live a little just like how Jeff encouraged Hater to be less well. hateful

nobody specific, yet! jeff did in fact cross my mind several times, because i love him, he's just... such a Major Threat (lol), such a Powerful Dude, that i'm like well if i make him remain evil forever he'd be Fairly dangerous.

this is also one of those reasons i'm real frustrated that wander over yonder didn't get to really round out its stories, because if there was a better springboard for how the dynamic between major threat and wander was before he caved in, i'd have a better idea of how he'd act as a nuisance as opposed to a galaxy-crumbling force to reckon with? like clearly he was vulnerable enough (not unlike hater, worlds squishiest collection of bones) to fall out of evil on account of wander's unrelenting kindness and sweetieness, but like... they're not the same? unless they totally are the same and i'm making it too hard on myself in which case swapping awesome and threat would result in a supportive gym bro and. lord hater II. and i'd just call him minor threat or something

we need more ugly women in movies

[moeblob]

So in the base plot she isn't really mentioned but there is lore that one of the bartenders (James) is the work dad to the hot bartender. And he's got a girlfriend who is never mentioned by name. Buuuut in the Royalty AU there's a young woman named Erin who is hired as the new head gardener at the castle and while she is getting adjusted to the role, she has some assistance from someone she used to work with at the flower shop in town. And that's the hot gardener!

So basically, Erin exists more in the AU than she does in canon/base but I'm stressed and wanted to design her.

For those that are new/don't know my OCs, Hot Bartender (HB) will never be given a name. That's just him now. He's the hot bartender. He's got a huge crush on Paul (another side character). That's Erin's work son vicariously in main and her work son directly in AU.
