I think someone has mentioned this before as seeing as the veilguard is in the Fade, their rooms are most likely their own construction or at the very least, they did some manipulation to make the existing rooms their own.

bc no way does Solas have a POOL in the lighthouse that Harding could chill in or near replica of the statues in the grand necropolis that could feel like home for Emmrich and seeing as Solas still has noodle arms, the gym set up is definitely Taash's imagination.

With that in mind, Lucanis's uhh...situation feels very much like a person who has the freedom to choose whatever he wants for the first time but because he absolutely doesn't know how to, he just goes with whatever is comfortable. And what's comfortable to him is a secluded room that's filled to the brim with food and a cot that is comfortable enough for him to sleep in but not too comfortable that he'll sleep through the night if someone attacks him in his sleep. Like i bet he just camped in the pantry and did little modifications to it besides imagining a sleeping space bc he doesn't know How.

What you said about Grian keeping his modesty even after leaving the Watchers.... Hmmmm.... Grian in Hijab.... Yes that's the shit...

i think hijabs are just for women ! i'm unsure what the male equivalent is

But ! The Watchers i write are inspired by Catholicism, his mum is a nun who veils. This is also just for women, but if he wereeee to veil then it'd be something like that--i mean not the full extent of a nun, but there are head scarves that allow hair and neck to be shown

headscarves are very pretty regardless tho <3

I beg people in the MW to think very carefully when they talk about mental illness and physical disability cause it’s not as straight forward and easy to diagnose/depict as you think…

Does Mike still has DID in this AU?

yep, but only Chester, Svetlana and Manitoba are in his system

(not trying to ignore/dismiss Vito and Mal here, its just I believe that some Very Fucked Up things had to happen to Mike for them to exist, I also believe that said things would have had to happened a little later in his life, say like late childhood/early teens, and keep in mind in this au Mike was only four when he got adopted, and most likely developed only those three alters from constantly going through foster homes)

I love the 666 series! It doesn’t matter if it’s explicit or not, your characterizations and plot are what makes it amazing to read. I’m sorry you’ve been apprehensive about posting more due to all the attention on it (most of them are in the top 2 pages of the ship on AO3, congrats). I know I for one will be THRILLED to read any addition, just becuase it’s from you and about the characters you’ve fleshed out for us. - 🐈‍⬛

Aw, thank you! Honestly I really appreciate everybody's positive responses! The apprehension was mostly at the sheer volume of response to the last installment, with that specific and unfortunate combination of a lot of lamenting that it was winding down (however well-meaning those comments were) + the folks that got really weird about the CNC. One person who left such a comment even ended up deleting it, I think probably after realizing that it wasn't a reasonable thing to critique when they admitted they hadn't actually read any of the other installments.

I generally try to write primarily for myself and what I want to see in fics, so I think that's where I got a little overwhelmed was the feeling that I was disappointing people by not continuing the series, which is also where now the awkwardness comes from, of, "Well, it's been a while and now I have some more ideas..."

At any rate, I'm going to keep writing for myself. Whenever I do feel this way, the trick to get past it tends to be telling myself that I'll write it, I can just keep it in my drive if I feel like it. I never do, in the end, but it leverages away that sensation of feeling like I'm writing to other people's expectations rather than my own, ehehe.

Anyway, thank you again! <3 Very excited for digging open these character's headcases some more! >:)

Hey if you gloat about "stealing" f/o's from a person who doesn't like to share, I'm gonna need you to grow up and respect people's boundaries and also get the fuck away from me.

[m0ggers]

okay i'm giving in to my urge to make izanami, my cursed womb oc, but i'm going to quarantine her off on a sideblog because that whole plotline is so full of shit that hits broad spectrum squicks and triggers. it's easier to tap dance around or talk about it obtusely with choso but it's impossible to escape the sexual violence, torture, body/reproductive horror etc, inherent to discussing the woman with said cursed womb. so it will be neatly cordon off for all of our peace of mind.

Re: the tech era thing like. We gotta stop doing this man. The technology you had access to as a kid, be it your first gaming console or your first mobile phone or your first smartphone or whatever the fuck, will never be a reliable indicator of what generation you are and to pretend otherwise is a horrendously classist insinuation. And I get that these posts are just intended as a bit of harmless fun/nostalgia bait/whatever but you gotta learn to think a little critically about it man come on

[obxfiles]

i just have this suddenly wave of emotions tonight. sometimes it just really hits me how different things are from even just last year, and how far i've come. i look back on those dark times and it just truly moves me. i never thought i would be where i am today. i'm so, so thankful; thankful to my family, thankful to God, my faith, thankful to you too. whoever needs to hear it: there is light at the end of the tunnel. bad days, weeks, even years will not last forever. you'll find joy and happiness again. you aren't alone, and you are loved. even when you feel otherwise. keeping holding on. it's worth it, and you deserve the goodness in the future that awaits you ❤️

anticipatory grief is actually one of the worst things in the world I hope nobody ever has to deal with it

[cloveroctobers]

Had a little cry sesh (for the first time actually) after delivering some flowers to my grandpop’s gravesite today for his birthday but then made myself laugh at how he would probably make fun of me for doing so.

I finally read the full translation of Shua’s ment and I really wish wherever he goes, love and happiness follows him. It must’ve been a burden for him to cry the way he did and I wish the world would love him back ten times as much as he does. I admire him so much for his work ethic, his skills, and most importantly for how he treats everyone with so much kindness. for him to continue to treat the world with kindness after all that, he’s really brave

We always wish our idols happiness but I find it so cruel how some people would take it back the moment this supposed happiness does not include them. They’re people like us at the end of the day, who also get hurt by mean comments and baseless allegations
