#idk i just wish we had more time with them i think

[nyssasorbit]

Theories on what the ghouls wished for:

I've been compiling this for a little while, so I added some explanations too. I think part of why they received the abilities that they have has to do with the specific way they worded their wish, so I tried to make some of them "accurate" to what I think they would be + some variations that it could have been instead.

Note: I don't think all of them made wishes that were intentionally malicious in nature, but they must've had enough darkness in their heart for the demons to prey on, at least at the time of summoning them. Since at least some of them seemed to be kids when they summoned demons, they probably didn't fully understand the gravity of summoning a whole ass demon, and weren't necessarily evil people.

Jin - For people to listen to him, maybe because he felt undervalued despite possibly thinking he was capable of great things. Or maybe he was more vindictive with it, and wanted to be able to make people obey his command to show them what he was capable of?

Tohma - To make a change, ie. "To shake the world in waves". I firmly believe his Vagastrom nature wants to make some kind of change, and he's using Jin as a way to see it come to fruition (though I think he does still appreciate Jin as a person).

Luca - To protect people (canon as far as we know). Maybe to protect his brother specifically? (Did he summon a fucking genie?) Not sure why his brother would be taken though, since as far as we know, no one else has had to sacrifice something/one upfront to have their wish granted. Maybe his brother was in danger and he wished to protect him, so his brother was removed entirely and Luca absorbed the demon because of Weird Pact Things or whatever? Maybe his assumed absorption of the demon is what caused his brother to disappear in the first place? (Yikes...)

Kaito - Not sure. Maybe something like being able to understand others/their emotions, or be able to detect liars/deceivers? Maybe smething about enhanced vision/being able to see things he/people in general ordinarily can't see? I think he was the one who mentioned his pact was "forced on him" so idk.

Alan - For the strength to get revenge. //chill Alan..

Leo - To hear what people are saying around him. (I have a headcanon that his wish was mostly innocent in nature/intended to be malicious for only one big thing, but having the ability, maybe + being under demonic influence, turned him into a monster.) Maybe his wish wording could have also been something along the lines of wanting to know the secrets of the people around him, or something?

Sho - To push someone/something away from him? Not sure what "jams things" entails entirely. Maybe to get away from his brother, or maybe he was physically trapped somewhere when he made his wish? Maybe he was being bullied?

Haru - To be able to move quickly, maybe either to help someone or to save himself? Or just to keep up with the hustle, lol?

Towa - No fucking clue. Is he even truly a ghoul? The closest thing I would think for all he's got going on is "to be able to understand nature" or "to be one with nature" or something to that effect.

Ren - To be able to clean without water? (Is this how he bathes?) No fucking clue.

Taiga - To have good fortune/favourable odds? To have things "go his way"? Maybe he was an unlucky bastard in his youth? Maybe he was trying to help repay family debt? Romeo has defined his ability as "luck", but I don't know if his stigma has something to do with his apparent ability to see the future/other time loops. It's possible that's something outside his stigma entirely, considering his opening dialogue possibly implies he was incapable of seeing the future at the time.

Romeo - Not sure. Maybe something regarding revenge? Like wanting to take down his rivals? Maybe his specific wording included "I'll do anything" hence things closer to him emotionally having a bigger blast. Something something "wanting to make an explosive comeback"?

Ritsu - To be capable of holding his own in court? I can't think of the wording I want to use, but basically to be an indestructable force in the court room, whether that wish is for himself or so he can honour his family/father.

Subaru - Not sure. Maybe he wanted to find out the truth about something that was hidden from him? Maybe he wanted to uncover some kind of scheme amongst his acting peers or whatever? Maybe he wasn't always sus as fuck and he just wanted to understand people better, to know how to help them?

Haku - If I'm going with the shapeshifter theory: To change, to be someone else, anything else, to be something that isn't "Haku Kusanagi" that's part of this big family and weighed down by all these expectations. Otherwise, no fucking clue.

Zenji - No fucking clue. If I'm going with the "Jiro time traveler" theory, maybe he made a wish something along the lines of wanting to protect/watch over Jiro, which is why he is the way he is now?

Ed - No fucking clue. Is he even a ghoul or just a vampire?? If I'm to guess his mist is his stigma, then maybe something along the lines of "to have the ability to charm/persuade people"?

Rui - To help people/to ease people's pain specifically? Could he have maybe been capable of healing people by touching them before, but obviously can no longer do that?

Lyca - Maybe to find his way after getting lost? Maybe to ensure he didn't lose/get separated from anyone he was close to? Not sure. Could also be to capable of hunting something down?

Yuri - To be a genius!! He's a visionary that just needs the brainpower to bring his thoughts and ideas to fruition!! (Not sure how he worded his wish though.) Maybe he needed this brainpower to save his mother or otherwise to prove himself to his mother?

Jiro - No fucking clue. If I'm going with the time traveler theory: to go back in time and save the presumed baby third Kirisaki brother. Maybe Jiro was capable of doing this but traveling back too many times caused his health to deteriorate, both from his power and his own personal neglect?

I wish they had done more with Lilith losing her powers in BL3

I think there's like a one off line from Ellie about how Lilith's acting strong but she's hurting or something but I wish we had actually gotten to see more of the effects.

Like her instinctively trying to use her powers and then remembering that they're gone, or her actually being ill from having them taken from her. Maybe she absorbs some eridium right before her powers get taken and then there's some lingering after effects of having eridium in her system while she isn't a siren and Tannis has to treat it or something.

Having something ripped away from you like that would HAVE to cause some serious mental trauma right? And I know that we can infer that she's hiding it to seem strong or whatever but I wish we actually got to SEE some of the effects because all they show her doing in game is limping for like 30 seconds and then walking around and acting like normal.

Idk I just think it could've been a really good time to explore some of the stuff about sirens and give Lilith some more character development

It’s honestly so wild to me how people don’t seem to understand the context in which s5 was written? First it got picked up for a full 20-something episodes, then 18 and somehow it ended up being 12 episodes. A strike happened in the middle of it. A lead actress left the show. In the course of the season they realized that it was most likely gonna be the last season. Do I think it was their best season? No. Do I wish we would’ve gotten more tarlos in s5? For sure, but also I could say that for literally every season. Idk I just feel like considering everything going on with the show we kinda got lucky. And it’s not as if the other relationships in the show got more storyline or screen time? Also some fans got really weird about the couple counselling storyline for some reason (?) and it kinda tainted everything for them after

it’s a miracle s5 even made it to screen tbh

and oh? I had seen some things on Twitter from people who don’t like tarlos laughing/thinking they’re divorcing or a horrible couple because they went to counseling. Imagine saying that about an individual who went to therapy. That they’re failing at life and not worthy like what the actual fuck

lol i pregamed a tiny bit for agatha but now after finishing im just taking shots for coping reasons

Look, I don't believe in preferential treatment, it's not right.... BUT ☝️ if we're gonna have changbin saying sydney is skz's second hometown I just think maybe australia could not be charged things like 60+ dollars shipping.... or 75 dollars for a normal album at the most prominent music retailer when other places pay 15-20 for the same thing.... lol

[lemongogo]

why do i love the conflict more than anything else . the misery . the incompatibility that spreads like oil slick . wanting so desperately for resolution that never comes . hmmm

[a-god-in-ruins-rises]

actually...

looking at a bunch of my old favorite mutuals blogs that have been inactive for years. i miss them, even if i never really talked to any of them. when you're mutuals with a person for so long they become a comforting presence even without talking. you see them every day and read their posts about their thoughts or feelings or about what's going on in their life and so on. and they just become a part of your daily life in such a subtle way.

and then one day they just never post again. without warning. shit sucks. i actually hate it.

[mbat]

thinking about the eredar and how they couldve so easily just been like 'fuck off' about them and let them be mindless soulless irredeemable monsters who have hurt and killed countless people across the galaxy for centuries

but they chose to redeem them. to make them work toward redemption, even if they never achieve it in the eyes of most... or anyone, even. to make them people just like the other characters, and rejoin their people that had to separate from them a long time ago.

and how you can play as one now, technically. you can gain customization options to become an eredar and play as one. and thats wild to me, but in a good way. its just neat

[creachiergh]

anyways. WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT.

[trentcrimminallybeautiful]

i think about the whole "love that" exchange a lot.

[fluffle-writes]

I wanna. Pick them up in my mouth and shake 'em around like a dog obliterating a squeaky toy

I'm v curious abt Talon's mesoamerican origins and evolution in general how does his accent sound when written out? after such a long life what is the strongest vestige of those times he has (aside from physical features and so on). I can't believe some rando bloodsucker colonized my boy

I have no idea what his accent wld sound like as the few videos i cld find of people speaking his original language, are, of course, mainly spanish speakers! And I can sometimes hear the difference in spanish as they switch between the 2 while being interviewed but i struggle to mentally transplant that as to how it'd sound in English ykwim 😭 there's also the fact that its the modern language spoken by them so it has evolved alongside and borrows from spanish anyway, by those who still speak it and speak both Today

Im actually still zeroing in on fleshing out more of that lore, since I can't find too much info on the specific culture i envision for him, it may really just have to be "fantasy culture INSPIRED by the people" instead, so i dont completely botch actual historical info 😮‍💨 either that or go very vague off of the info available

[formerbogbody]

Reached Consort Radahn with my latest character to go through SOTE and I feel very different about this boss now after it’s been so long. I actually find I enjoy fighting him! I didn’t like his fight much before (and I still dislike some aspects), but I feel like I get it now (sorta, tho I need to practice phase 2 more).

Even the lore reasons don’t irk me like they used to—I wasn’t a hater; I just didn’t love it. I think I actually like this Miquella over the version that I and many others expected, and I’m actually glad he wasn’t what I expected he would be.

"An awkward gesture" like yeah. And that group of guys who gathered around in Portland ME in full Nazi paraphernalia on April 1st that one year were just joking. Right.

i finished veilguard, my life has no meaning, also what yhe FUCK was that post credit scene, im afraid. and i cant wait for the next one tbh. i hope my rook gets to be a lil well remembered hero who stays ready as the veilguard but has decided to protect thedas from demons and twisted spirits using their expertise as a mourn watcher and my likely connection to the fade, ya boy would spend time learning ancient elvhen funeral practices from bellara and how they effect the fade too.

i just want my boy to have some peace with his husband, go on ...safer adventures...cause his heart nearly gave out a few times and itll take a while to put it back together again. hes always going to be looking for harding and honouring her too, i want to think she was the one he went to when he had panic attacks. i think hed be searching spirits and the fade, and hed go visit hardings mom (would probably cry more than she does too especially if she looks like lace). hed have tea with mahanon and visit the griffins, and the caretaker a lot, but when its all over and everything is mosty recovered and he visits vorgoth and myrna he gets a lecture from myrna and a begrudgingly relieved hug, and vorgoth doesnt really say much but takes him aside and pats his head like when he was child and would hide from his lessons because they made him feel dumb.

i love dragon age, i never want the series to end, i need to revisit inquisition again
