some changes

Just a little heads up that Sif and Dug are both gonna be undergoing some slight character changes! Me and @shroudandsands talked extensively about their current dynamic and where we want these two to end up, and we both agreed that in their current form, Sif and Dug are a lot of fun, but it's not exactly good for them. We want to try and give them a more mutually fulfilling relationship by shifting their dynamic and creating stories that are not only fun to write but are also healthier for everyone involved, including our characters.

I’ll start with Dug. Instead of having two knives and a mysterious career, he’s now a free paladin and a sworn protector, especially of Sif. Instead of being the least willing participant in a battle, he’s now valiantly leading the van and fighting for all things good and right as the Warrior of Light. He’s not Mr. Perfect and he doesn’t do everything right, obviously. Cooking and cleaning are not his strong suits, but that’s why he has his lovely wife!! He loves her so much and he's so thankful he has her to take care of him after every battle, physical and emotional.

You can already see some of Sif’s more obvious changes too. Rather than a wandering alcoholic bard, she’s now an amnesiac practitioner of white magic and Dug’s most faithful supporter on and off the battlefield. She has taken a vow of pacifism and has sworn to never harm another in word or deed because she’s a healer (and that’s her husband’s job). Little does she know that she is also a Lightwarden who escaped Norvrandt through the rift, which is amplifying her healing abilities beyond what she would ever be capable of, but it's also slowly killing her each time she uses her magic.

Rather than constantly bickering, these two will now be actively supporting each other in a much more wholesome way. While Dug is making all the tactical decisions, Sif is making all of the more domestic ones, balancing their relationship evenly and playing into their natural strengths. They are loyal to their friends and especially to each other, dote each other before every dungeon boss, and if I write one more complete sentence of this, I will probably be found dead at my desk so this bit is over. I take no pleasure in knowing I wrote any part of this. Have a good one, y’all. 💕

i see ur "idk what this is" "i dont go here" "i know nothing of alnst but this is so [..]" you know what, if youre interested but dont know what it is or where to start you will now watch alien stage in this order ↓ and if ur interested/have questions we can babble abt lore or scream together 🖤

alnst is set in a world where humans are being held as pets by aliens and compete against each other in singing contests for the aliens entertainment like some kind of twisted dog show. what happens to the loser... well

Saw these tweets a while back and I think they're pretty clear cut re: Midnight and whether or not her personality or identity has any meaningful influence on My*tra's current incarnation. It's also pretty telling that any instance of M*stra using an avatar of Midnight would be an act. (Source: X)

it's time for another you know what grinds my gears with amanda (and i should just generally stay out of the tags, but-).

you know what grinds my gears? worldly emmrich. like...it's okay for him not to be worldly. he's a little naive and overly trusting. people very well could (and no doubt have) take(n) advantage of him because of it. he's lived almost the entirety of his life ensconced in his particular corner of academia, with a couple of forays out into the rest of the world, and there's just...a wealth of shit he doesn't know.

like he has all these big ideas about the world he's never seen when he leaves the necropolis and he's so bright-eyed and bushy-tailed about literally everything. like...think about it, he's game to still try bitter cherries even when harding starts giggling at him because she knows how it's going to work out. he's never had pineapple before having access to minrathous, and that's down to neve. davrin points out flowers to him he's only seen in books when they're out in the field. lucanis definitely introduces him to a wealth of food experiences he'd never have had (if slightly altered for his vegetarianism) otherwise. he may not give a single fiddly fuck about dragons but he knows so much more about them now because of taash. and he's definitely learning a great deal about artifacts especially from bellara.

like!! he's out here getting a crash course in new, exciting things. let him ask questions! let him not know the answer to something, and seek out the advice of people who do. like i think there comes a point where you have to understand he and manfred mirror each other considerably, in that where manfred stagnated under the lack of new stimuli in his growth, so does emmrich, and pulling him out of the necropolis gets him to grow and blossom as much as it does manfred, they're both spirits of curiosity (metaphorically speaking).

like why would you not want him wide-eyed and excited about actually fucking living for once?

To Nathan: "You think you're cool because you're rich? Well, you're a fucking loser. Look at you, taking all those fuckin boring pictures like a nerd. You think they're gonna make your rich daddy love you? You can pretend you're cool to your friends because you get them high, but I know what you are. You're just a little art geek who gets high on his own fucking shit. Somebody really oughta teach you a lesson, junkie."

what the fuck, what the fuck, what the fuck?!

❝ oh-ho, @waylonpaced, you just crossed my fuckin' RED LINE. callin' me a junkie? talking about my dad like you know anything about my family? who the fuck do you think you are? you wanna give me this psycho-babble bullshit? i pay people for that. ❞

why are all these people named max coming for him?! what the fuck is going on?!

no way, no way, no way. keep it cool, nate. this guy is just trying to fuck with you like everyone else does. don't let him see you sweat, bro. own his ass. remind him just who the hell he's messing with. nobody fucks with nathan prescott. nobody fucks with me.

that, and he's a little sensitive about his work. he only lets the other students see the things he submits. to show them anything else is personal, trusted, private. but sometimes things slip out in the open, and people pay too much attention to the photos on his wall, and he ... ah, fuck this guy!

❝ your first mistake was trying to get the fucking drop on me, dickhead. second? making an enemy out of the prescotts. we own this fucking town, dumbass. oh, but just you wait ... something big is happening here, and you're gonna get swallowed up just like every other fucking loser in this town. i don't give a fuck who you think you are or what you have to say to me. now, fuck off, freak. before i get nasty. ❞
