When Steph and Cass get married they don’t take the last name Brown (Daddy Issues™️) or Cain (Daddy Issues Prime™️) or even Wayne (Steph absolutely REFUSES to become a Wayne nosirree), but a secret fourth thing (Gordan).

Just experienced the most incredible moment in Dragon Age Origins

I was in the temple of the Urn of Sacred Ashes doing the god forsaken floating tile puzzle, and when I clicked on Alistair, he just went my love?

And while a simpler man may acknowledge this as a glitch, I, for one, elect to fully embrace this as canon

Orest, in the middle of a floating, magical bridge, just calling out to Alistair to ask him to move to the next spot, and Alistair responding with my love? and Orest's jaw just dropping as he tries to fight laughter and responding next tile, my love?

Alistair realizing what he said and the inside of his helmet starting to heat to a hundred degrees while Orest just keels over laughing, Alistair threatening to mess up the puzzle and let him drop, all while Leliana and Wynne look on, half in amusement and half in horror at the fact that this is happening in the Temple of the Urn of Sacred Ashes.

The fact that THAT post is the one the tiktok bots want to memorialize forever on that platform....sigh. I guess it's fine. I'll be famous for Kryptonian prostate discussions, sure.

[Hanfu · 漢服]Chinese Tang Dynasty(618-906 A.D)Traditional Clothing Photoshoot

【About Hairstyle “堕马髻 [duò mǎ jì]”】

During the Tang Dynasty, Li Shan(李善) quoted "record of the Customs/《风���通》" recorded : “‘堕马髻者，侧在一边’，......始自梁冀所为，京师翁然皆效之”。

 ( “堕马髻 [duò mǎ jì]” is a hairstyle with a side hair bun. It was created by Liang Ji's family and later imitated by the people in the capital.)

The characteristic of this hairstyle is that the hair hangs sideways to the shoulders, and a lock of hair is separated from the bun to scatter freely. If  combine with “啼妆(Makeup that make people look like they are crying)” and “愁眉(sad looking brows)“, it will look like a woman who has just fallen from a horse, which can increase a woman's sense of charm.

The“堕马髻 [duò mǎ jì]”appeared again during the Tianbao era(742–756) of the Tang Dynasty, and became popular during the Zhenyuan period(785–805) of the Tang Dynasty. In the Tang Dynasty, some people described the shape of roses hanging down and petals gently touch the ground, like the hairstyle “堕马髻 [duò mǎ jì]”. “堕马髻 [duò mǎ jì]”has slightly changed from generation to generation, but its basic characteristics, the sideways and inverted shapes, have not changed. “堕马髻 [duò mǎ jì]” is mainly favored by married middle-aged women.

-----

“堕马髻 [duò mǎ jì]” hairstyle originated in the Han Dynasty, during the Han Dynasty, "《后汉书∙卷六十四∙列传第二十四∙梁冀》" recorded:

 “寿色美而善为妖态，作愁眉，啼妆，堕马髻，折腰步，齲齿笑，以为媚惑。冀亦改易舆服之制，作平上軿车，埤帻，狭冠，折上巾，拥身扇，狐尾单衣。寿性钳忌，能制御冀，冀甚宠惮之。”

Translation：

Liang Ji(梁冀)'s wife Sun Shou(孙寿) is very beautiful and good at being "bewitching”. She make “愁眉(sad looking brows)“,“啼妆(Makeup that make people look like they are crying)”,as shown below:

“堕马髻(comb your hair bun on one side)” ,”折腰步(refers to swinging the waist when walking)”, as shown below:

“龋齿笑(Refers to a woman's intentionally contrived smile that looks like a toothache, although is very happy inside, woman don’t laugh out loud)”, she thinking these makeup & action that will make her very cute and to attract men.

Sun Shou is jealousy because she can subdue his husband Liang Ji. Liang Ji dotes on her very much, but is also afraid of her.Sun Shou's actions and the makeup she created were deeply loved by women in the imperial city of the Han Dynasty at that time, and they imitated her. And this trend gradually spread to other cities.

which has record in  《搜神记∙卷六∙梁冀妻》：

“汉桓帝元嘉中，京都妇女作“愁眉”“啼妆”“堕马髻”“折腰步”“龋齿笑。”“愁眉”者，细而曲折。“啼七”者，薄拭目下若啼处。“堕马髻”者，作一边。“折腰步”者，足不在下体。“龋齿笑”者，若齿痛，乐不欣欣。始自大将军梁冀妻孙寿所为，京都翕然，诸夏效之。天戒若曰：“兵马将往收捕：妇女忧愁，踧眉啼哭；吏卒掣顿，折其腰脊，令髻邪倾；虽强语笑，无复气味也。”

But these trend is actually portending a tragic end.

天戒若曰：“兵马将往收捕：妇女忧愁，踧眉啼哭；吏卒掣顿，折其腰脊，令髻邪倾；虽强语笑，无复气味也。”

Translation：

Heaven warned: "The army will come to arrest, the women are sad, frowning and crying; the officials and jailers push and kick, break their waists and spines, and make their hair buns tilt; even if they are forced to talk and laugh, they will no longer have that mood." 

In the second year of Yanxi(159 AD), the whole clan and family of Liang Ji's was exterminated.

In Chinese history, it is not difficult to found that when a kind of makeup or fashion that tends to show"sad”，“crying" etc,and becomes popular among women. In many cases,It heralds the imminent demise of a dynasty.

Just like the "Blood Halo Makeup/血晕妆" in the late Tang era and popular in the Han, Tang and Southern Song Dynasty brows makeup “愁眉(sad looking brows)“.When these makeups appeared, the empire also getting weakened.

Therefore, Chinese literati and scholars of in history criticized these fashion/trend, and believed that it was a sign of the collapse of the country.

Doing some Halloween crafting while I watch Faceoff and DID NOT expect to also get the joy of watching Connor McDavid actually have a meltdown and then cry but man oh man that's the icing on top of my "Landeskog's daughters favorite team is the Penguins" viewing experience.

I've reached that wonderful stage in the writing process where every line I write makes me want to scream into a pillow and the longer I look at it the more I hate it and I can't tell if I'm just overthinking everything or this fic just really isn't turning out how I wanted it to 😂😂
