#is a FEATURE not a BUG

[firelxdykatara]

Honestly, I have very little sympathy for people who bypass the big, in your face 'FIND YOUR FAVORITES' section of the homepage that lists all media types and naturally draws the eye to go straight to the tiny little search bar that is squished into the upper right corner of the page. There's nothing intuitive about going for the ao3 search bar when the home page offers a way to start off narrowing your search results by genre and then immediately by fandom if you click one of the easily-offered links.

It may just be because I'm from a different era of the internet and so clicking around pages to figure out how things work is already my first instinct but it's just. So, so simple. Two clicks! If kids these days can figure out how to do TikTok or whatever they can figure out how to use ao3 most effectively too.

But it does.

it's truly the tried and tested Doctor Who formula for a showrunner to say "yep we're doing a soft reboot of the show! this is a great opportunity for new viewers to jump on board!" and then immediately pivoting to lore heavy additions and continuing 60 year old character arcs and pulling random plots from obscure 90s novels.

Birds of a Feather previous / next

[seasaltandcopper]

today I discovered that in bg3 not only can your mage hand get caught doing crimes and be given the chance to talk its way out of it, but if you fail (that -5 penalty to charisma sdfsdf) the guards will take it to a jail cell

I can only imagine what kind of slapstick shenanigans happened trying to wrangle that thing along the way

so on the subject of the "Crowley is secretly Revaan/Laverne/Levin/please Twst give us his name" theory, I think my feelings are best summed up as "I don't really buy it, but it's funny". like, in all seriousness, I'm not opposed to it; I have enjoyed the writing in Twst so far and I'm willing to trust that whatever happens will, you know, make sense and not be terrible. but I'm just not really convinced by the current evidence! maybe that'll change once we learn more, we'll see!

with that said, may I propose a few alternate theories about the possible Crowley/Revaan connection:

do you have any female ocs

i do yes.? i just suffer from the przemoryba disease where i only draw these two. but this is the entire dns cast that i need to redraw

to elaborate more Oleh is a girl too its just more complicated and Mikita. well he would really like to be a girl but hes not there yet

I like and respect Quodo as a ship, but they're also deeply unserious to me. Just, inherently cracky.

Because I cannot imagine either of them ever giving up their shenanigans. Like, I heard about some rival professors once who were complete opposites in their theories, had big research battles, everyone thought they hated each other, etc. As it turned out, they were married. Their marriage survived because they just. Completely left their work at work. They never spoke about it at home. They'd write the world's most scathing rebuttals of the other's research, and then go home and make them tea.

Quodo? Would not do that. They'd be at their wedding, and Quark would still try to scam all the guests, and Odo would still try to put him in jail for it. Odo would routinely bug his own quarters, and Quark would sell information about Odo on the black market. Absolute looney toons shenanigans.

Lan Wangji might be an unstoppable force, but Xie Lian has 800+ years of practice of being an immovable object.

Game Update - 5/7/24

The next update is ready to play!

Features include:

An update! 😅

An entire recoding of Chapter 4! including a new chapter title (2 of them, technically, as it’s different depending on the route you chose at the end of Chapter 3)

Some actual communication between characters about what’s going on!

Gavin Cowles!

A reminder that previous saves made in Chapter 4 will be broken! You will need to load a save from Chapter 3 or earlier to play, or start a new game!

There isn’t a lot of new content this time, as most of the work for it was on the back end and overcoming behind-the-scenes obstacles, but I’m so happy to finally have an update for you all! I say “thank you for your patience” a lot, I know, but I really can’t say it enough. Your continued love and support is what kept me going while I battled the various demons that kept getting in my way. Next update should be a lot bigger, and include some conversations you’ve all been waiting for!

(On the last page, if Gavin mentions someone other than your chosen RO, let me know! I’m still trying to iron out the code on that one… so far I’ve only seen issues on no-romance runs thinking you’re romancing Li, and I think I’ve fixed that, but if I haven’t/something else comes up wrong, please tell me)

What you can expect in the next update:

Another update! 😂

Gossiping about your love life!

Gossiping about your friends!

Gossiping about your… sister’s love life?

As always, thank you for reading, and enjoy! 💙💙💙
