anyways, speaking of cannibalism, wrt frey pies in particular, it just hit me that the rat cook song is not just a way for wyman to slyly telegraph what he did w/o any of his in-world foes noticing, it could also be his justification just as much as inspiration. let's look back at how we learned of the legend through bran:

"It was not for murder that the gods cursed him," Old Nan said, "nor for serving the Andal king his son in a pie. A man has a right to vengeance. But he slew a guest beneath his roof, and that the gods cannot forgive." -Bran IV, aSoS

so, in other words: 1) violating guest right is the most heinous of crimes and 2) if guest right is not violated then murder and even cannibalizing the murdered to feed to their own kin is a-ok so long as the motive is personal revenge. by giving guest gifts to the 3 frey envoys to end any guest rite bond asap and get to the killings, wyman not only gets just a feeling of moral superiority by at least not committing the same type of crime as the enemies he killed, he also ensured that his vengeance could be divinely sanctioned as a natural right correctly exercised, unlike how the rat cook did his. he learned his lessons from this northern legend and improved upon the actions of this nightfort cook accordingly. thing is, the justified right to vengeance has to be just an old gods thing, not fitting in with the seven (which house manderly had converted to 1000s of years ago back in the reach) as the christainity stand-in, which is just evidence of the depth of manderly northern assimilation and/or that old dark ways never entirely disappear, no matter the religion. wyman manderly can still worship the "new" gods with just as much urge toward old-fashioned bloody revenge as any old gods worshipping northman, not so different from his vassal ser bartimus in the wolf's den who bragged to davos that his ancestors were likely among those who once hung slavers' entrails in a heart tree as a bloody offering to the old gods.

I’m sorry i just… get so emotional when i do this shit. Please don’t take this that seriously. And please don’t judge me for being so immature. I am so very grateful to everyone, but I’m sorry I’m like this. Bye.

alright, i'll write about it at length eventually, but the type of human nik originally was are actually a neat little group of guys. called 'shadows' or 'hosts' (most often not called much of anything really) they're what happens when once in a very rare while a mundane human is born metaphysically incomplete, with their soul not fully formed. they're perfectly regular people, no extra abilities or special heritage (and if they were supposed to have any, they usually end up not having it), with zero clues about what they are besides some inherent restlessness, aimlessness and an odd sort of spiritual dissatisfaction. they don't stay clueless for long, though, usually. when there's a void where part of your soul should be, it kind of behaves differently.

one thing they unwittingly do is absorb metaphysical energy aimed at them like a sponge, making them natural conduits for the magical and spiritual, and extremely sensitive to both. it does also neatly soften the blow of any magic attacks, curses and, most importantly, possessions - which they can handle better than most, but suffer more of than the mundane human would. the preternatural just can't seem to leave them alone. unfortunately, they end up being pretty convenient for otherworldly creatures or metaphysical forces that be in need of a physical form to operate or speak through.

a lot of them are extremely talented mediums and find their calling in allowing the spiritual to speak through them. others find a source of external power or magic to borrow from, but those can only be granted by surrogacy, not taken. some bond with supernatural beings they gladly pay host to, like a live-in patron of sorts. few aren't quite so lucky and end up as 'true vessels', fully taken over by greater spirits and stripped of their autonomy. for a time, while he was still a 'host', nikodemus' fate was almost sealed as a true vessel, only he ended up eating his 'parasite'. which is a neat way to discover what you are and also how you can use it to your advantage, in the same breath (and gain some new abilities through virtue of digestion).

anyway, i just think they're neat.

6, 11, 12 for Kingmaker?

After a period of distraction I am here, thank you as always for the ask!!

From this prompt list

6. when you first think of the fandom, what image comes to mind?

Like, of the community of people? Hm. This is weirdly hard because despite who I am I actually am not very immersed in the fandom in some ways... I'm not even in the tag for the most part. So when it comes to iconic memes or art, I'm sadly clueless. Can I just link my favorite party art? I'm going to do that. It's Emma's and these fantastic late game redesigns. I gush about Emma's all the time but the redesigns in the other one take my breath away.

11. what song do you associate with a character (or 2)?

That's easy.

Yes, I understand that the vibes aren't like, the most in alignment with the character, but I really think the song has it, y'know? And hearing it on my first listen to Impera was what finally fucking broke me on the vow I was never making a Tristian playlist, so I think it really deserves to be mentioned. The obsession with status, the desire to go higher, to attain a deserved position, to be good and righteous without struggle or self-doubt...

If we're going for two then here's a Tristian and Nyrissa one <3

12. favorite hc for a ship, character, etc.

Strong, strong believer in Tristian's absolutely fucking nightmarish sleeping habits. Wakes before dawn every day, but somehow always seems to be up in the middle of the night... It's that kind of situation. And it's partly the guilty conscience, sure, but also just a constant "one more task" in the middle of the night, or taking on way too much at once, or feeling too overwhelmed by Things Happening (noisy, people, too many sensations at once) to get anything done at a reasonable hour. Always drowsy in the middle of the afternoon. Always a bit scattered and worn down by insomnia. Sometimes being out in the wilderness improves things just through the combination of physical exhaustion and other people being around to insist on rest, but just as often it doesn't; he wakes up at strange times in the middle of the night and gets up instead of trying to sleep again, or he spends half the night fidgeting with something and staving it off just a little longer- sometimes out of a sense of existential dread, sometimes for no discernible reason. On a related note, I don't think I've ever encountered canon confirmation of it, but I always assumed that Nyrissa visited him in his dreams sometimes.

my heart cracked open, and

the burning liquid from within

seeped into my bones

until i knew not what i was.

i still have not re-emerged;

that girl who hung on every word—

that naïve, flightless little bird—

has been tortured, scarred and burned

until there was no proverbial

other cheek to be turned.

she’s me now, and i

her.

what a monster.

now some people may not like to hear it but even the worst people who exist are still people & there is no human being who has More right than others to decide whether others deserve to live or die (does not mean i personally condemn murder in self defense or anything of the sort or killing fascists or whatever i'm just saying as a baseline This Is How it Is) & this is why the death penalty is not a good thing no matter how good & trustworthy the people in any government might be. people on average also deserve the chance to learn to do better. & no, someone who's been forcefed propaganda their entire life will not let go of that deeply entrenched mindset so easily, it's not particularly unrealistic & it absolutely sucks to deal with but in the context of tangibly working toward world peace it's also not an issue to try & help such people both in material ways & in helping them learn better rather than cut them down or abandon them to a grim fate. all this to say that's why i don't think garlemald is written badly, as unpleasant as the experience might be. walks off the stage

HEKET QUEEN OF FAMINE

"I've always told, harvest be my virtue, Lamb...Would you let your people starve for the sake of your pitiful vengeance, you worthless little peon? Or would you prefer to bask in my wine, and bow to the true gods of this land...be wise, worm. Or I'll gobble you up, like the rest of your kin..."

Halfbody commission for @pinkcanine as promised, a Heket for the Ascension of Mercy AU, gods I wanted to draw her for such a long time, but didn't have time nor the excuse until they came along. Here's our precious little princess, telepathically speaking through the powers of the yellow crown, gorging herself on her numerous flies...
