Happy Birthday to Ferdinand von Aegir!

I actually made 33 emotes, affectionately known as Aegirglyphics to some, for my own personal use on discord. However, I figure why not share some of them! They're free to use for discord servers/icons/pfps or whatever. However, my only request is Do NOT use them as subscriber emotes on Twitch. You can make them free follower emotes but you are not to make them locked behind a paywall.

thoughts on dave and aradia (<>)?

day 356

BIG fan tbh. in this house we love and respect timerails

truly yall read this log and tell me theyre not cute

[oceanwithouthermoon]

maybe its just me but i cant stand when people are like "it just doesn't sit right with me how teruhashi thought about aiura 🥺" like yes... its not supposed to ??? because her thinking badly of other girls and prioritizing male validation over everything is one of her main flaws ??? can we talk about that WITHOUT making it seem like shes not allowed to have a single actual flaw without suddenly becoming an awful person? nobody can handle complex female characters at all and its so fucking annoying

do maelor and viserra have kids :3 ALSO whats alysanne and jaehaerys' reaction to their marriage?

for a long time i don't think they do because even after they get married maelor has some kind of weird obsession with his children being saera's . <3 for a solid while he just goes You need to get rid of that baby . NEOWWW. under the guise of being worried for her health or something because he truly does just delude himself into thinking saera will come back . and that this time she will want to have babies with him

but in time he probably just settles into pretending LOL making up imaginary scenarios in his head to a completely batshit degree . i can't imagine viserra is very excited about being a mom nor having her sister projected onto her and neither of them are good parents in the slightest but they have like 3-4 i imagine . maelor would want multiple just to make sure he doesnt end up in a scenario where he has no heirs... even when he himself isn't really heir to anything. neither of them have much of an attachment to their kids and it's a bit (to put it lightly) miserable

i think maelor would have a few bastards as well running around fleabottom . none that he acknowledges or even really knows are out there like if you asked him how many he wouldnt know the answer... but theyre there .

as for alysanne and jaehaerys .. i know theyre MADDDDD as hell. seething and raging at them to a real bad degree mostly because viserra was already betrothed - it creates a bit of a political headache and definitely forces them to be really mindful with the north going forward. i imagine even when things settle down a bit their trust in both maelor and viserra is kind of broken beyond repair and they never really manage to move past it wholly. both of them probably get sent away from court for a while so that they don't piss jaehaerys off any further but ultimately there's nothing he or alysanne can really do about it so they do find some degree of just angry acceptance . at least it wasn't some rando lesser lord or knight .. i guess ...

also something interesting about the fact that jaehaerys and alysanne also got married in a similar fashion (ie secretly and against the wishes of the people around them). maelor voice if my father can marry his sister to make sure she doesnt marry another man outside the family why can't i. ill ponder this for another day and give you a proper thinkpiece anon

dragon age fans have an uncanny ability and endless drive to make themselves unhappy and demoralized. every bit of veilguard information we've gotten so far has been encouraging and what you react with is "but what if the things they haven't talked about yet are bad :("

please get well and consider how little benefit there would be to a marketing plan that starts with the best possible news and tapers off into irrelevant or disappointing aspects instead of the other way around

MIKE BLOCKED ME ON TWITTER FOR ROASTING HIS DUMBASS RESPONSE TO THE GRAPHIC NOVEL STUFF!!

grown ass man scared of the 19-year-old queer being mean to him over his public meltdown more at 8.

[sukibenders]

A female artist/celebrity: Hey, while I'm really happy for all the support you guys as my fans have shown me, can we please establish some boundaries? Some things are starting to make me uncomfortable. Again, I'm grateful but--

Said people the response was aimed towards: Oh so now she thinks she's too good for us? She's so ungrateful, letting all the fame get to her head. Doesn't she know that without us, she wouldn't be as famous? She should just suck it up!

[glsneeg-enthusiast]

okay um ik it literally doesnt mean shit coming from me but to the encore guys im genuinely really sorry for this whole thing idk why you guys got banned (esp cole. who literally wasnt online or part of the argument) and it was like actually kind of fucked that you were after everything was figured out and everyone was calmed down

i love jesper sososososo much. with all my heart. he means everything to me.

BUT HOLY SHIT I WILL NEVER FORGIVE HIM FOR THE WAY HE TREATED KUWEI.

kaz was pretty awful too but like that's just kaz so I'm not as upset by it. jesper was just mean.

Even when he's saying something not inherently mean to him. like his tone is so belittling it makes me wanna GAASFAHSHDAS

and like, i can forgive the teasing i guess, because that's kinda how jesper talks to everyone, including wylan. (it's a little different since kuwei is literally their hostage and they shut him in a tomb for weeks and then tried to sell him so kuwei probably wants nothing to do with them at that point, but he does end up having kinda a crush on jesper so maybe he didn't mind idk).

BUT OH MY GOD. when jesper said "those shu soldiers can smell us. YOUR father made that possible" I WANTED TO PUNCH HIM. kuwei watched his father die in front of him. parem was an experiment meant to help kuwei hide his powers. and then kuwei got dragged off and kept in the ice court for god fucking knows how long and was forced to make the formula for a drug that would massacre his own people. Jesper knows all of this and still decides to say that. As i said I love jesper but that moment makes me so mad at him.

then later in another jesper chapter, he internally says "The sooner Kuwei got on that boat, the better. The tomb was starting to feel crowded." KUWEI DOESNT WANNA FUCKING BE THERE?? literally leave him alone wtf did he do to you.

then in the entire black veil scene, jesper responds to almost everything kuwei says with some little dig at the fact that kuwei's dad made parem and everything is kuwei's fault to the point where kuwei is basically begging jesper for understanding and jesper dismisses him like annoyingly easily. I felt for kuwei so hard reading that scene. I wish we got at least one chapter from his POV just to know how he's feeling.

mostly i think jesper is just projecting his internalized grisha-phobia onto kuwei which i get is part of his character growth and stuff but it's just so unfair to kuwei. all kuwei is trying to do is relate to him and find some common ground on some level but jesper just acts like such a jerk. and when he kisses him and then just runs of and leaves him there... that was,,, like im not gonna act like jesper was 100% in the wrong for that situation because he wasn't but he definitely could have handled that situation better.

He also is probably doing it to impress kaz too because there's a lot of moments where the 2 of them gang up on kuwei like middle school playground bullies. Those parts probably infuriated me the most, because like... you kidnapped him. obviously he's still in a better situation than the ice court but i would at least expect jesper to have some sympathy.

but one thing that really gets me is how the fandom acts like wylan and kuwei are enemies and like, wylan despises kuwei. that's just so out of character for everyone involved. wylan and kuwei are the closest to being actual friends than kuwei + anyone else. jesper is the one who hates kuwei. I hate when people project their kuwei hate onto the crows but at least do it to the one who's actually shown being mean to him. when wylan said that "push you in the canal" thing he was running on broken ribs, a dead friend and like a half hour of sleep so he would have said that to literally anyone.

this was a really messy and unstructured tangent but i just really needed to get this out there. lmk your thoughts

5, 18 & 19 for the fanfic ask!

Hello and thank you for the questions!!

5. first sentence of the fifth paragraph of an unpublished WIP

“I have to say, Blanche,” Rose says, settling back against Blanche’s side, “I know you explained it to me, but I still don’t get it.”

18. if you keep them, share a deleted sentence or paragraph from a published fic

I don't really keep deleted sentences/paragraphs, unless they're full concepts for a scene that I might want to use in another WIP, but I did find a couple of sentences from an early draft of i would have said impossible [...] that got heavily edited by the final cut. I'll bold the parts that got kept in the final work:

"She likes to think she hid it well. She tried to, at least; bit back the most acidic jokes, tried to keep a hold on her sarcasm. It's not her roommates' fault if she's had a bad day, is it? So she tries. She listens, and she's patient, and she's affectionate -- and they seem happy. That must count as a success.

And yet, when she's finally alone in her room and ready to call it a night -- then Rose comes, carrying tea and cookies on a tray.

It's strange. She told Ma earlier that she'd like to be alone tonight, and before the door opened she only wanted to get into bed and forget everything until tomorrow morning. Then Rose came in, and she'd be lying if she said a single hint of her perfume and a single glance at her reassuring smile aren't enough to calm her nerves."

The gist of the passage remained more or less the same, but I hope it counts anyway!

19. the most interesting topic you’ve researched for a fic

I'm not sure I can choose the most interesting one -- I love learning and I've had a lot of fun with every rabbit hole I've found myself in for a fic! The most charming one, though, was definitely the little ornithology detour I went on while I was writing sonata for trio, which was a classic case of 'I only needed to find the right simile to add in this sentence, how the hell did I end up on the Wikipedia page for the American Robin?'. I learned a lot, and birds are so cute -- especially robins!! I had a great time reading about them :)

(I'm not counting my research on karst and sinkholes as a valid answer for this questions, because I already knew the topic well enough, but I did spend a lot of time fact-checking what I wrote. I don't want to spread misinformation!)

people older than you when the challenge is to not give unsolicited advice: 💀💀💀

[loser-jpg]

maybe you should be a better fucking sibling and validate your sister being rightfully upset genuinely what is wrong with you - sincerely, an irritated middle child

😀

i have literal fucking lasting trauma from having to grow up listening to this lady argue with adults for stupid reasons. i should not have to fucking hear that shit. she is supposed to be the mature one especially since shes twenty fucking two and has a full time job. why is it my responsibility to take sides? why should a child be subjected to hearing screaming at late hours of the night yet be expected to comfort those who put themselves in the situation? my parents never start those fights its always her. she always screams and cries and all they do is respond the only way that can get through her yells. also who the fuck are you to try and comment on how i should go about my home life? you dont know what my house is like so why do you think you can tell me what to do? and like. she started screaming because my parents ate her pizza without knowing she was saving it. shes mad that they ate food in their own house. shes eaten my food before but whenever i am upset and ask her not to eat my food without asking she gets mad at me. shes fucking hypocritical shes not in the right.
