fun tarasios (sylvari vampire) facts, in no particular order, because goddamn it i don't HAVE to have screenshots and a fancy intro to talk about them:

- they use mirror pronouns, because i thought that would be funny for a vampire. (steals your pronouns steals your pronouns st) (note: mirror pronouns means you should use Your Own pronouns for them - although they're always fine with any, they'll appreciate it if you switch it up :3 )

- other vampires CAN feed off of them, because they still technically produce sap, it's just....incredibly unfulfilling. their sap tastes like your friends making plans in front of you and saying "oh, i GUESS you can come." it tastes like your neighbors having a party at 3am when you have work in the morning. you get the idea

- because they live in the shiverpeaks (and aren't connected to the pale tree's dream), they had an easier time when mordremoth was yelling in everyone's head - they still heard him, but it was like someone talking in the room with them, rather than all-consuming and indistinguishable from their own thoughts. they were interested at first - how often do you get the chance to talk to an elder dragon?? - but disappointed when it turned out all he had to say was KILL MAIM DESTROY BITE KILL etc etc.

- (they did, however, have a lot of interesting conversations with jormag. probably there will be consequences to this! i haven't decided yet.)

Made a Lil Hal playlist to listen to while planning videos/getting in cosplay. Hit shuffle on that bad boy and was immediately hit with Erase Me by Mystery Skulls (devastating and sad) followed with Atomic Karate by TWRP (psychic damage) so I’d say it’s perfect

Hello who told me to read Project Hail Mary (Andy Weir) cause I just finished that

[keferon]

The tac net crash chapter is one of my favorites so far~

Ah and. Guess what. I just discovered that including this post, I made 50 pieces of fanart for Mistakes on mistakes until.. I’m so sane and normal about this story can you tell👍

[minisculemars]

so I saw Joker 2 and while it has problems, I did mostly enjoy it. incoming unpopular opinion:

MASSIVE spoilers. obviously.

I think its funny how people say that the film "betrayed" the character by having arthur say he wasnt the joker. I disagree. the courtroom scene with him and gary couldn't have made it more obvious how the joker ISN'T a character he plays. because when arthur tries to perform as him it's just a disaster. he can't "turn on" the joker that was on the murray franklin show. joker from the murray franklin show wasn't joker, it was just arthur... it's always been arthur. there never was a joker. I mean do people seriously think his rant towards murray was exceptional clown improv and not arthur speaking from the heart?

there was always something off to me about how this site treats joker and arthur like two seperate entities and this movie confirms that. I always thought of them the same. the clown getup just gives him the push to, ironically, be his real self. idk fight me

Oh yeah, I really liked Francis' nervous little "yeah you should... you should see the other guy" when Kelsey points out the blood on his legs. What's the matter Francis? You're not feeling guilty over what happened to Shane, are you? Or are you worried about Kelsey finding out what you did? That's how I read it anyways. I think it's a fun direction for his development, and to me personally much more interesting than him simply becoming increasingly trigger happy without any remorse or regret. I hope it eats away at him more and more the longer he holds it in (with appropriate mechanical consequences) 🤞.

I'm still thinking about that "Immoral Orel" au where Orel never broke the cycle and just became like Clay lol

[alexandraisyes]

Ugh enemies to friends.

Whoops I rambled

Sun is first scared of Moon because he’s so violent and aggressive and it turns into Sun being pissed off with Moon because Moon is always breaking the rules. Sun and Moon getting separate bodies not because they’ve reached an understanding but because Sun is at his breaking point. After Moon finally has his own body though he chills out a lot and Sun learns to understand that Moon was only so angry because he hadn’t known that he was sharing a body with someone else.

They were originally theatre attendants/performers and they had equal amounts of time in the body and they never questioned it. It was just their “off time” when one of them wasn’t fronting. But after they were switched to the daycare Moon only got time to front during nap time. Not only that but he never got the proper protocols to be a nap time attendant, they had skipped him in favor of Sun. Moon had a complete loss of control and was thrown out of his comfort zone by Fazcorp and Sun wouldn’t listen because Sun didn’t understand.

But Moon was in too much pain and too distressed to realize that and properly communicate, and he thought Sun was doing it on purpose. (Sun thought Moon was breaking the rules on purpose too, but as far as Moon understood he was still supposed to be performing because he never got the updates.) So he lashed out at Sun. And it’s not until they get separated that Moon can actually think for the first time in years.

It’s sobering to learn that the person you hated since the day you met them was because of a misunderstanding. They don’t get close, not fast, they barely talk to each other at first outside of Sun having to manually train Moon on how to actually work the daycare. They’re begrudgingly coworkers, and it’s takes a while for them to work up to each other.

Mmm I have more thoughts about this but I’m not on my computer right now. . .

So I’ve been thinking

What if there was an au that was kinda like TSAMS but no one was related? And dynamics were slightly different (or majorly different in some cases) because of it? Cause they talk on the show a lot about how their universe is super rare in the fact that they have that family spaghetti going on, and how there are canonically universes like theirs *in the show* where Sun and Moon aren’t related and are instead friends, or lovers, or even plain out enemies and that the sibling universe is rare.

So what if there was an au where they all were just friends. A friend group instead of family spaghetti?

UNHOLY ALLIANCE SPOILERS (again, I can’t stop yapping about this update):

Either I’m the slowest person alive, or I just think too much (though it’s fun to do so). BASICALLY I was just playing my game and thought over the Bishop’s final quest until I realized all of their dialogue had a connection to their injuries. I’ll start from the most obvious to the more vague.

First up- Leshy

In this dialogue, he makes the connection to his blindness and his ignorance, being so out of touch with reality that he didn’t know the extent of what he was getting himself into.

Narinder’s plans were not at all a bother to him, having his own cult to run and experiment with. He relished in the devotion his chaotic ways had to offer, and because of his foolishness, he lost his sight; hence see no evil.

Now for the genocide. Once again, he explains he didn’t know the full extent of what he was getting himself into, more focused on what had happened rather than what will happen. Therefore he thoughtlessly agreed, seeing how his siblings were compliant to Shamura’s orders.

He never saw the evil in the actions of his peers until it was too late, his eyes acting as both a symbol and punishment for his ignorance to all around him.

Next- Kallamar

This can be easily skipped if you didn’t pay attention to the dialogue, but he explains that all of which he has heard he wishes to unhear.

I already explained this in my other post, but he knew of Narinder’s plans, and instead of speaking out, he cowers and wishes he never knew of it in the first place. Unlike Leshy, who remained ignorant on the matter, Kallamar knew too much.

For the genocide (Which might explain the Mystic Sellers description of Kallamar), he hesitates when he hears of Shamura’s orders to kill all Lambs. A part of him knows that what they’re doing is wrong, but rather than listening to his sense of justice, he complies. An action in which he regrets.

He hears too often, and wishes to not hear. He listens, and yet doesn’t listen to himself. His ears act as a symbol and punishment for his cowardice and lack of self.

Now- Heket

This one is a little less obvious than the previous ones, but only a small part admits it. Heket shows her love for her siblings quite often despite being the cruelest of them. So imagine her despair once everything fell out of order.

For Narinder’s plans, she was most likely unaware of them before it was too late. And once everything started falling out of order, she was demanding for everything to go back to normal, urging her siblings for all that has gone wrong to right itself, and finally in her most vulnerable state, begged for the family she once knew to come back together, knowing that it never would.

After being left vulnerable, her despair turned into rage targeted at Narinder. She was determined to protect her remaining siblings, and in turn, immediately agreed upon hearing Shamura’s orders to carry out the slaughter of all Lambs. She heard the lambs scream and beg with their lungs, cry for lost loved ones, and demand justice for those who have been wronged. Though, she showed no remorse; for she knew there was none.

She screamed and begged for her family, and in turn heard others scream for their own. Her throat symbolizes and acts as punishment for the injustice she faced herself, and for the injustice she caused others.

Finally- Shamura

Shamura’s dialogue is the longest of the Bishops, as well as the most confusing for me to pick apart.

Shamura knew of Narinder’s plans, and yet decided to tell nobody. They knew of the risks of supporting such practices, yet went along with it anyways until the consequences were apparent. Then and there, they decided to put a stop to it all, banishing Narinder to his own realm.

This part would just be a guess in order to connect the dots, but I have a feeling that Shamura and Clauneck conversed one day. On that day, the cards were drawn, telling of a lamb that would slay all the Bishop and set the Chained One free. Shamura didn’t accept this, and politely dismissed themselves, almost immediately thinking on how to avoid such a fate.

One day after resting for years, they come up with a solution- that solution is of course, to destroy all lambs. They order their remaining siblings to hunt them down, spreading propaganda, putting bounty’s on their heads, and spreading plauge and famine across the lands.

They feed their siblings lies about the prophecy, twisting and molding their fate to bring a sense of hope to their siblings. Eventually, they start believing their own lie, convincing themselves that blood must be spilled in order to preserve the Old Faith.

They spin and mold the web to their liking, though eventually it will all come apart, and all that they’re left with is guilt. Their skull symbolizes the strings they pulled. The lies they fed. The guilt of knowing. The guilt of deceiving. All of it. For it is the way they will be punished.

All of these are basically my take on the whole thing, and are not confirmed besides the dialogue. I just enjoy piecing everything together because this game is just so amazing!! Also if you made it to here, thank you for reading all of that, and if you have any thoughts or corrections, feel free to comment and or repost!!

If Hunter was pulled out of the ground as a toddler and Golden Guard by the time he was 16, then imagine how young he was when he was first forced into scout training. What age did Hunter’s childhood end? How old was he when he scaled that mountain? Were any of the other scouts hesitant to spar with him when he was half their height? I imagine child soldiers aren’t really as stigmatized on the Boiling Isles but did that still apply when it was a ten year old in a mask that kept slipping off his head because it was still a little too big? A cape he kept tripping over because it was still a little too long? Did anyone see that little, magicless boy trying to fight alongside adults and think anything was wrong with it but was forced to keep their mouth shut because it was the Emperor’s will? Did anyone care? Did anyone think to ask their god why he needed children to fight his battles?

Hii!!! 💕your post about nerdy men did something to me.

I don't think even Levi himself is aware of the power he holds because he's too busy rambling while you're still trying to recover. 😵‍💫😵‍💫

Hmm, I see your oblivious Levi, and I raise you handsy Levi rambling about TSL

Walk with me here

You're perched on Levi's lap while he sits at his desk, the game long forgotten as he rambles about people's wrong opinions in his opinion about the character development in TSL or, more so, the perceived lack thereof. If you're being completely honest with yourself, however, you haven't been able to understand a word he's saying as his hand seems to have a mind of its own, reaching under your skirt and squeezing the fat of your thigh, everyone in a while brushing against your core. Meanwhile, his other hand is fully up your shirt, tracing circles over your hard nipple as you try desperately not to make any noises other than the occasional "uh huh," "yah," "mm?" in hopes that he doesn't catch on to the absolute wreck you've become thanks to him effectively teasing you for the last hour. He, however, is blissfully unaware of his movements as he continues to talk into your ear, lips grazing over the shell of it as his hot breath fans out over your neck. He can't help but be glad that his girlfriend is such a good listener when really you're just a slut for your absolute nerd of a man.

not to get all analytical about a ship that is at the end of the day the consequences of our desire for toxic yaoi but i think the reason shuake works so well (even in a platonic context) is that it just. works well with the themes of the game. like in a game about defying authority and ideas of predestination ofc the idea of the "fated rivals" deciding to be anything else is good. its a strong thematic choice! enemies by fate and friends by choice is actually a very good dynamic in that context i think. anyways thats it just saying things
