YEAAAAAAAAH LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[gristlegrinder]

to be honest thats a character i’ve been floating around for about a year now and only just now has inspiration really struck. i’ve already got the rough bones of a character playlist and everything

[gristlegrinder]

the state of my commander stuff is disastrous. i normally just play through story on siya in a party with saint’s commander but on my side we’ve got:

— failwoman who continues messing up the plot so badly that her universe is collapsing in on itself. goes wildly divergent back in LWS3 so now every expansion we move farther away from any canon plot resemblance

— guy who theoretically COULD’VE been the commander at some point in some alternate timeline and could probably run through canon better than khismat but like, the entire point is that he fundamentally Isn’t The Hero. so i don’t want to do real commander stuff on him

— the quaggan. actually good at the job. does everything the way they’re supposed to. can’t really play through most of the story on them because they’re a quaggan.

[gristlegrinder]

the best thing about siya sharing a canon with my partner’s commander is that i never have to figure out commander and/or wayfinder stuff. unfortunately that means i’ve put zero thought into figuring out what timeline stuff is relevant for khismat post-IBS because that’s around the point her canon divergence goes off the rails

me, trying to figure out what is going on with soo-won and cantha in this setup. to say nothing of the wizards. at what point do i give up

Late because I’ve been on vacation, but a fun lil tag game, tagged by @sunbat-commander !

Last Song Listened to: Gladiator - Jann

Currently Watching: I just saw Nimona the other night with my roommate! And I’m currently rewatching Riverdale which is, as always, iconic and beyond reproach.

Currently Reading: My beach read has been Brian Evenson’s short story collection The Wavering Knife and I cannot stop thinking about it. It’s the kind of literary work that eats me alive.

Currently Obsessed With:

1) I got back into home bartending after like, seven months of not really drinking— I’m a wizard and I’m Making Potions. Thinking about picking up a bottle of passion fruit liqueur with my next paycheck.

2) Guild Wars 2 as a general concept, but you already know that. So like, specific recent fixation: I have a really, really, really big soft spot for Steel warband, and the last couple days I’ve been thinking a lot about Nicabar? I’ve been rotating an idea in my brain that’s like… Nica as some degree of Frost Legion, thinking about his experimentation with eternal ice shards and how that could develop into production of tonics of icebrood corruption. It’s a fun space to play around with because of how he’s physically absent during DWC, but I’m still figuring out how I want to do it.

2.5) Also the Khismat and Trahearne brainworms never go away, really. They’re so divorced. Worst trammander ship ever.

3) I am once again thinking about running a Changeling the Lost campaign despite having no ideas and no time to be a GM. Send help.

Tagging: the only person i’m gonna tag is @huntunderironskies :3 hi friend. tell me more about your edgy idol boys

canon divergences are going to be the death of me. i need to write down an official timeline for khismat’s bad end canon, but i keep getting stuck on what happens post-joko in LWS4

like, okay. tl;dr is that this is a trahearne lives AU too, but he lives because mordremoth takes him as a champion before dying and he fucks off even deeper into the jungle before he can be forced to bring harm to the pact. khismat spends half of season 3 trying to find him and understand what happened to him, so she’s not able to help the seraph and shining blade with the krytan civil war, so that becomes a lengthy and drawn-out conflict lasting into path of fire and season 4, if not longer.

during the departing, one of the strongest memories she follows through the domain of the lost is a very tired trahearne telling her he’s become something terrible, that mordremoth called him his champion, and it gives her an idea. she completely ignores joko, has zero interest in listening to his whining, and when she revives, she finds kralkatorrik. lays down her weapons, says she’s trying to fix the damage she caused, offers herself to him as champion. the two slaughter balthazar.

and like! the locals are shit terrified! the pact isn’t happy (RIP almorra i am so sorry ma’am) and while khismat claims she has everything under control, they make it very clear they will dismiss her (violently if need be) if her or her dragon escalate any conflict or local destruction. bangar is almost definitely back in the blood citadel speedrunning the early parts of the icebrood saga, with more support (especially if the white mantle pose any serious longterm threat, the longer kryta fights with itself, and especially since the pact seems to be siding with kralkatorrik, the enemy of the charr).

joko is slighted by khismat, although not as personally as in standard canon, and still declares war on central tyria, likely attacking lion’s arch while humans and charr are preoccupied. despite the pact’s reluctance and distrust, this is her fault and therefore her fight, and khismat retaliates. shit’s messy. made worse by champion void corruption and the fact that she now has kralkatorrik’s warring magics and conflicted emotions also pounding through her own head.

but then i’m just. what happens during and after long live the lich. where does the escalation go. why did i do this to myself—

[gristlegrinder]

i could've had that hammer months earlier but i sure did impulse-craft the dreamer in the middle of all that. it's fine. we're finally here baby

[gristlegrinder]

lies down on the floor. the new kesha song works really well on my commander’s playlist

[gristlegrinder]

been thinking about what my commander looks like before and after being corrupted by kralkatorrik. she’s cute and it’s kind of a shame that LWS2-POF did a number on her emotionally

also becoming a dragon champion gave her horns and a tail because i said so

[gristlegrinder]

woke up feeling awful this morning and i can’t tell if it’s because our heating got messed up from having the balcony door open while watching fireworks or if i actually caught some kind of illness working the holiday and fsa week rush—
