#nox talk

I just had a couple revelations.

First, I've noticed that for me, a gender's flag is also part of the gender itself and can't be separated. Which is one of the reasons I stopped identifying as enby and instead as a genderfluid guy- I don't identify with the gendered quality of the flag, which I feel is inherently part of the term. Another interesting facet of this is that my orientation automatically also an orientationgender because of the flag.

Second, I have a split between emotional and physical tertiary attraction. I can't feel both (or only rarely) for a single person. If I initially think someone's aesthetically attractive, I can't feel emotionally attracted to them and vice versa. This might change after a while, but that's how it is initially. Typing this, I think I might be aemotional spec lol

Anyway some thoughts

Just a rant about Lunafreya

I feel like she's way too overhated . It's true that she's never given a lot of depth or screen time in the game . But she had more screen time in the kingsglaive movie . And robbed of the Episode Lunafreya DLC which was cancelled after the director of the game left . I just find it pretty annoying how the fandom treats her . Especially shippers .

I'm referring to THOSE Prompto x Noctis , Stella x Noctis shippers . Sometimes the fandom even says misogynistic stuff about Lunafreya . It just bothers me so much

Hello I just discovered your blog because I love Bg3 and your art is just *keysmash* 😍😱💚 You named your Tav Lux and your Durge Nox? That is beautiful! Normally I'm most obsessed with my own Durge (her name is Maev 😊) but you got me hooked and I would love to know more of them! Are they shape shifters/trans/androgynous? (Correct me if I'm wrong but I think I spied both male and female forms 🧐) I love your design and the concept that Nox is like a cat, innocently playing with half dead things while the others witness it with shock and disgust 😆

💕💕🩷💜🩵THANK YOU for asking about my creature i love them so much 😭😭😭😭💕💕 answers under the cut so i can ramble contentedly and here is a wip of their cult leader days vs their return to baldur's gate (i just got to act 3 and they are Going Through It)

they originally started as a tav w/ the name lux, short for the tiefling virtue name luxury, then i restarted w/ them as a durge and the name nox bc it was like the opposite of lux (night vs light). they've evolved pretty far from the original lux character in terms of backstory, motivations and priorities, though personality-wise they're still pretty similar. i'm still considering whether i want to preserve/develop lux as a separate tav 🤔

they like to change up their gender presentation but tragically (in their opinion) are unable to physically change shape (major point of sibling rivalry with orin). i guess the best term for them might be genderfluid, or polygender? they're fine w/ any pronouns and gendered words but tend to most enjoy androgyny and ambiguity

and yes you get it..! that's a good analogy, not exactly innocent but amoral in the literal meaning of the word, like outside of mortal morality. cause they're not mortal ultimately and even by the end of the game struggle to see anything wrong with their enjoyment of violence and killing

they think about things less in terms of right and wrong and more in terms of what they care about and how they're affected (though they do throughout the course of the game begin to redevelop their very beaten down and atrophied sense of sympathy). luckily for everyone involved they want to be Loved and can compromise by mostly only enjoying socially acceptable violence and killing lol

Writing canon-compliant Sonadow is actually so difficult

In my heart of hearts they are a queer-platonic couple so like. Writing or drawing them being overtly romantic feels so off 😩 It's easier with Sonknux for me because of Knuckles' and Sonic's personalities? But Sonic is still very much in the aroace category for me, and so is Shadow. I feel like I'm smacking two pieces of chalk together and making something tangible out of the dust

fun tidbits about the nox epic roleplay session playing kingdom hearts the first:

you gain high jump for respecting women being epic

the gummyshit is called dellamadò. italians know. this is for us

sora had a crush on peter pan when he was a kid (aka last year)

sora is 14 and a half and 14 and 3/4 and 15 and 16

sora learns to respect women. riku doesn't. this is why he gets taken over by darkness

donald duck is getting a divorce

goofy adopted sora, like, legally, and so does donald but like only in kh2

donald is not yet forgiven for his crimes (ditching sora for 5 minutes at hollow bastion)

you gain high jumps also by being gay (captain hook is the proof)

[noxstrages]

would you guys forgive me if i just became an OC blog

Sofia the First AU where Cedric has had enough of people's lack of faith in his capabilities and just...gives up.

What's the point of practicing magic if no one will believe in your ability to practice it? If they'll just make fun of you for it, and compare you to your father? When even your own family ridicules you? The path of sorcery has brought him nothing but pain, and he doesn't want anything to do with it anymore.

He resigns from his position of royal sorcerer (King Roland is only too glad to let him go) and leaves the castle. He probably settles down in Dunwiddie. All he has remaining from his life as a sorcerer is a wand in case of emergencies.

Now that he's no longer a royal sorcerer, he decides to figure out something else to do. He tries out various jobs of all kinds, finding a new path.

Doing everything without magic is difficult. He's frequently tempted to use the emergency wand and make his life easier. But he resists, telling himself he has given up on that life entirely. He persists without magic, and eventually it does get easier.

He misses his old life often, remembering all the wonderful things he could do with magic. But then he remembers the disrespect, the ridicule, and he tells himself that it's better this way.
