RIP Krakoa 🌹 I can’t lie I’ve been kinda behind since midway through Fall of X I’m gonna catch up before my first SDCC this summer but I hear Vulcan didn’t see much action anyway. Anyway my hand slipped and I found myself looking into the eyes of my canonically psychotic son the best Summers brother who’s never done anything wrong in his entire life, (he’s done lotsa wrong things but I love him more for it)

While I’m still thinking about Cata and Origins, if/when I replay her I’m thinking about the repercussions of changing up the main quest order I’ve had her story locked into for like 8 years, and swapping Redcliffe and the Circle, so having Redcliffe first after Lothering, then the Circle, then werewolves Denerim Temple Orzammar.

On one hand, I think Redcliffe first makes a lot of sense. On the other, Cata and Alistair’s relationship arc is “bantering-friendly-allies-of-necessity-and-trauma to silent-strained-allies-of-necessity to ????? to friends to lovers” and Redcliffe is where they have their big blowup fight that shapes most of their arc, so having that come earlier on changes the dynamic some. And Cata doesn’t properly apologize until after the werewolf curse is broken, so there’s longer there that that things are strained between them. On the first hand, that then means that there’s more time later for the ????? stage, which would happen after the Circle tower where being trapped in the Fade forces Cata to realize that she really does care about Alistair, but she’s still too proud and fucked up to properly apologize about it for a while, so after the Fade trip she would be trying to act like things are like they first were between her and Alistair, and Alistair is of course deeply, deeply confused because Cata does not vocalize any of her feelings.

But on the other hand again, the bit with Alistair’s mother’s amulet is kind of important in their arc, too - Cata finds it in Redcliffe and remembers what Alistair told her about it, but they just had that massive fight about Isolde’s death, and Cata doesn’t want Alistair to think she’s trying to bribe her way back into his good graces, so she holds onto it for a while until it gets harder and harder for her to figure out how to admit that she has it so she just sneaks it in with his stuff, and he realizes it must have been her. And I can’t remember if there’s an approval-gate on initially learning about the amulet, or if it just comes up pretty soon once you talk about Eamon/going to Redcliffe.

Well I guess this means I’ll have to replay Origins as Cata again. No other choice. No way around it.

I may have a lil residual trauma from when mercedes had histoplasmosis

Harleys sick (probably a cold) but she hadn't moved from the chair in my moms office all day and hadn't been drinking water and it was reminding me too much of when mercedes got really bad and I had to drip water in her mouth with a syringe every 10 minutes to keep her hydrated

So I spent 30 minutes crying in the shower about it

Anyway she got up while I was showering and moved over to my room and just got done gulping down water so its good now

And she has come for her after shower snuggles

She still clearly isn't feeling too good but if she hadn't come for her snuggles I'd be way more worried

Can I please just stop inconveniencing everyone?

[catkin-morgs-kookaburralover]

littol brown snake at work today. juvenile. apparently their bites can be fatal even as juveniles! but it was really cute - I saw it first and trotted off and told higher-ups like a good little girl. we closed the door so the snakeling could not get out and cause havoc; I kept walking past and wanting to open the door and look at it again, because it was so beautiful. but I refrained.

I need you guys to remind me when it's morning that I want to make a post for pinned post that actually. Does stuff. Like explain my sideblogs and ongoing projects.

Also entirely relevant in the meantime any house md fans plz send me ideas for things to write for the werewolf wilson au (currently named the www.au in my brain for ease of access) because I got a great name for a fic and I want to make it a oneshot collection because I don't have those as a skill yet and what better way to polish a skill than with a fandom I'm dubiously and cautiously entering at 45 minutes after my bedtime on a weekend

To be clear, unless staff trips over the trail of extension cords keeping the servers running, Tumblr likely isn't going anywhere any time soon.

What the info we've seen suggests is that updates are going to slow down, maintenance is maybe going to get a little shaky, and we're going to see more glitches as time goes on and the remaining staff gets further behind their workload.

Is this a good thing? No, absolutely not.

Should you be panicking, jumping overboard, running for the hills, etc? Also no.

So what does it mean?

Well, for myself and several other creatives you all saw tagged in that post, it means we're looking around trying to figure out what to do in the long run. We're not running for the lifeboats. We're just eyeing the iceberg in the distance and getting our shit together in the event that the worst comes to pass.

Speaking for myself, I intend to crawl through the walls of Tumblr until they pry me out of the air vents armed with a broom and oven mitts. I'm not going anywhere until the lights go out, and even then, I'll be chewing on the wires.

But that doesn't mean I'm not looking around for somewhere to land when the time comes.

Myself and several others are not panicking about this, but we are trying to be organized about it.

I'm just old enough to remember when fandom websites being nuked overnight was a very real thing. You'd go to bed one night and wake up the next day to find friends you'd known for years were just gone with no means of contacting them because the site you'd been using got wiped. Entire collections of fandom history were just destroyed in the blink of an eye.

We don't want that again. And the good news is, we have time. We have time to back up our shit, time to swap contact info with our friends, and time to find a new place to exist within our communities while also staying here because Tumblr ain't dead yet.

She's just slowly going to wind down over time.

Unless, of course, they trip over the cables. Then we're fucked.
