#poor malcolm tho

[inconmess]

Since I am stuck with ideas of Malcolm finding out that Oscar can't die and being gaslighted post it, here's an AU where Oscar and Malcolm are on the same group when Malcolm is serving. It was a debate on whether I should post it or now but I am now saying screw it and posting it. Is it a potential fanfic idea? Yeah. Am I just leaving it for anyone to adopt, hell yeah.

(At some point, I am going to make it in such a way that I am creating scenarios where every single Candela character has seen Oscar die and it's aftermath, multiple scenarios cuz why not but for now, version 2)

Malcolm and Oscar are in the same division, Oscar being sent into service as a punishment/him just signing up because he is bored and at some point in the mission, dies and has to be left behind because one can't carry a body and run long distances.

Or maybe he joined as an undercover thingy for Candela and is there in Malcolm's last mission, where his entire group evaporated but Oscar, with his luck, escapes but Malcolm assumes that he's dead anyway.

Either way, he is discharged, comes back to the city, gets taken in by Madam Glask and given a job and who's there? Oscar fucking Grimm. In flesh. Alive.

And Oscar is like "Nope, I didn't serve in the army, maybe you saw my relative" and Malcolm initially thinks he's hallucinating but nope, Cordelia introduces Oscar as a part of her security and can definitely see him so he's definitely not hallucinating.

At this point I suppose he has come in contact with Candela `peeps so he does mention about Oscar to Edgar or someone he runs with in a circle but no one has any idea on what he's talking about cuz Oscar hasn't worked with any of them until one day, Oscar fucking Grimm is in a circle with Malcolm. And dies again.

Cosmo is either in the circle with Malcolm at that time and is calmly like "Everything's fine, he's not dead, just pretending" or straight up joins the bandwagon of saying that "no, this is not that Oscar but rather my other grandson Oscar" the next time they meet.

Hello. I wanted to say that i've been following you for some time and i find your Vietnamese Clothing for DA characters stunning. They are so beautiful and you drew them perfectly and with a style that not only make sense (for example inspiring Bethany circle robes to those of a religious order) but they are also in line with the character original style. So... it's amazing!

Thank you so much! And I'm glad you enjoy the behind-the-scenes details; those little aspects often keep me up at night, since there are aspects of the Thedas worldbuilding (especially DA2) that are quite tricky to translate to/express with Vietnamese culture. I try to embrace imperfections whenever I can, choosing which aspects about the characters to highlight and which to let loose, and yet it still took me more than a year to finish Merrill's design 😂

I realized I never drew my Vy in this AU, so here are both of my Hawkes in a picture together, with their Vietnamese names. Cirilla becomes Trác Lạc (逴躒 - roughly translated into "having outstanding abilities"), as his father wished for her to be heroic and capable, and Vy becomes Tường Vy (薔薇 - climbing rose), as Leandra wished for her to be noble and resilient.

(And yes if you send me an ask for this AU I will draw/post new art for this AU 🙌)

Let Me Beat His Ass

A few things

Lol poor Daisuke his future wife is going through it and hasn't been returning his texts or calls

Malcolm truly is a big baby. Since Malcolm has been told "no" by Luna he doesn't know how to react. He's taking her wanting to see Andre as a personal attack against him rather than his sister just wanting to find out the truth.

Love Veronica and Luna, in an alt time they would have been GREAT

Transcript under the cut ~

Luna: She’s looking into it, she trying to find this “source”, Chantel isn’t saying who told her

The comments under the pic (it's much smaller on a phone than a computer)

@toucanman - I fucking knew it a rich girl like her would never actually be nice, she was just hiding her bitch ass attitude

@coochielicker - This isn’t the Luna I stan! All SMZ does is lie lie and LIE. Shes been acting for years and its only now shes a diva? Stop playing with my good sis!

@flo- Hmmm...I can see it tho, shes from a super wealthy family its probably her way or no way but who cares was anyone even hurt?

@fruitysims - LOL ive been waiting on something to come out on this hoe. Her nice girl shtick was so overbearing now her true colors are coming out. Thank god

----------------------

Veronica: What did Destiny say? Is she gonna do anything about this?

Veronica: You should send her bitch ass a lawyers letter or something. Can’t be legal to spread malaious rumors like that

Luna: I dunno. I’d rather find this source

Veronica: Where the hell is that man of yours? He must have connections he can use

Luna: Probably... he’s been calling but I don’t even have the time to deal with him right now. Malcolm that bitch still won’t talk to me and now Andre’s face is all over the news and my bitch Dad hasn't even called. It's...a lot right now

Veronica: Let’s travel then, How about Tomarang or Tartosa? Just until everything dies down and you figure out what to do next

Luna: No...I don’t want to leave Andre to deal with this alone and Malcolm is gonna crash out once he sees this online...I can’t leave right now

Veronica: Get off your phone babes. Reading all these comments is going to make you feel worse.

Luna: This is fucking awful and I miss Malcolm, can’t believe his ass won’t talk to me. Benji gives me updates but I’d like to meet Andre with Malcolm.

Veronica: Malcolm is the biggest fucking baby you gotta force him to see reason. If you don’t he’s just gonna pout and mop all day. Let me talk to him

Luna: What are you gonna do? Beat him up?

Veronica: Yes? Beat him up verbally at least. You’re hurting and he needs to get over himself, I'll help him see reason

Luna: He really does listen to you. Don’t be too harsh on him

Veronica: Hush. It's important you guys deal with this Andre thing. Malcolm needs to at least hear him out and stop punishing you for wanting to talk to Andre

Luna: Hahaha Malcolm has always been so sensitive, I wonder where he gets his bitch ass attitude from

Luna: V... it's been hell these past few days. It means a lot that you’re here with me now

Veronica: Babe. You’re basically my sister and I love you. Whatever is happening now will pass I know it will.

Luna: Feels like it's never going to end everything is going to fucking shit. I’ve never fought with Malcolm like this and Benji doesn’t know what to do he hates being in the middle of all this

Veronica: Sleep it off. I can’t help with what's going on online but I can and I WILL speak with Malcolm okay?

Luna: Okay...

Veronica: No more tears babe. I’ll beat his ass up if I have to. Just wait for my call okay?

Veronica: Love you too babes

Luna: Love you V

Watching Cult of Chucky

I'm watching Cult of Chucky and damn I feel bad for Andy (I'm watching the movies out of order (meaning the ones with Jennifer Tilly) so I have very little idea who he is)

Poor Nica 🥺 she deserves so much better

All, she and Tiffany have so much in common, they've both been electrocuted🥺

The scenery in this is so eerie and awesome 👀

I think Carlos is gonna die, but I kinda like him😔

Awwwwwww he gave her gum 🥺

The lady who's acting like she's invisible creeps me out and Nica is already nicer than me, cause I would've said no when asked if I could see her

Michael is weird, I don't trust him, and I'm guessing he's gonna do something with that gum

Oh damn, now they're having sex😭😭😭 I mean good for Nica, but I will always ship her and Tiffany 😂

Yup, Angela is creepy as hell

OH SHIT CHUCKY'S COMING FOR NICA👀👀👀

Damn Tiff😂 she really just put Chucky on Nica's lap? Nica just can't catch a break 😭😂

The way she's like 'this is so sweet' and then just leaves😂

Oh she 💯 said the good luck to Chucky

I love how when she loves someone, she loves them with her whole heart, but she absolutely deserves better 🥺

Oh noooooo not Carlos 🥺🥺

They really should have the sharps in a more secure place

The way Chucky is taken aback from Angela saying he shouldn't be afraid of her😂 he's like the AUDACITY

She moved up his list 😂😂😂😂

The thing I find so funny about Chucky is that he has no chill for bullshit or someone being stupid

Rip Angela you were a hoot

Oh damn, Andy tried to help Nica🥺

The way Nica just realized that Valentine is Tiffany 👀

Well that's terrifying (the

I love how Malcolm says to just stay positive 😂

Oh no, Madeleine's chest is bleeding 🥺

Holy shit👀 she just suffocated her child 👀(Chucky) I guess that's how she killed her real kid👀

Huh, they held a funeral for chucky

Good job Andy😂 (he wasn't being let in, so he got himself committed, honestly very smart and kinda relatable)

Well shit, he's come back from the dead👀

Dr. Foley got another doll😂😂😂 I BET ANDY HAD STUFF HIDDEN IN IT!!

Oh Madeleine, have you never see a horror movie before, you don't

Oh shit I just saw Chucky's shadow 👀

And another Chucky has awoken!

Oh shit, poor Carlos 🥺🥺🥺 poor guy didn't deserve this🥺

The short haired Chucky saying that he's never felt so alive 😂😂😂

I love how all the Chucky's immediately concede that the short haired Chucky is the one who deserves to kill Andy😂

Oooooooooooo 👀 Tiffany is totally gonna kill the guard 👀

The way she laughs when killing the guard is so endearing 🥺

Oh shit👀 so that's how Chucky possesses Nica

The way Chucky stomps all over Foley's head as revenge for Nica is low-key so sweet 🥺

Wait who'd you kill?👀 Awwwwwww poor Angela

Poor Malcom

Wow, Fiona is really KILLING IT as Chucky 😱

Ouchy Andy

I knew he hid something in the doll!!

"Think about it."

*Gun's out of bullets*

"Yeah, thinking is for losers"

Fuck, Tiffany is so hot👀

Really I love Tiffany and Nica, I don't care that they may be toxic

The way Tiffany liked having Alice around🥺🥺

I love their laughs

Like seriously Fiona deserves alllllll the awards for her performance

Welcome, Caller

by M Dean Wright

my thoughts in a nutshell: "oh no hes just like me fr"

ok i dont really review books or anything, thats my friend's job (cheeky promo alana_the_bibliophile on instagram) nah yeah but this one was just so good.

firstly, as a neurodiverse bi trans dude i related so hard to Malcom (the main character) with the overloads and insecurities and just everything. i may or may not have to get this entire transcript tattooed upon my person cos it just hits so close to home in places i didnt even realise until the book brought them to my attention.

like the whole thing about Malcolm not going after things that will make him happy (Peter) just cause he feels like hes so fucked up ± messing something up on purpose before you can mess it up by accident vibes. i literally said (in a squidward impression cos that is important information) "oh no hes just like me for real" out loud on a bus (but it was a loud bus so no one heard) (hopefully). also another thing, Peter telling Malcolm about his auDHD and what he likes + dislikes about sensory stuff. and Malcolm believing and respecting him. i just. its such wish fulfilment. that along with the rest of the story, its all just wish fulfilment. having multiple queer and neurodiverse friends that help you when youre struggling and will beat up your unsupportive family members. (also having a dude think youre hot. wouldnt mind)

secondly, it was just a good read. like i really enjoyed reading it, which hasnt happened for a while. it made me smile and laugh in public (which i never do). fr i was having a giggle on the bus, in class, in doctors waiting rooms, everything. i actually looked forward to reading it as well and i had to trudge through other stuff just so i could get back to it.

lowkey gives love simon vibes (from what i remember of the book when i read it in like 2018), just chock full of natural and believable sounding dialogue and references to things im sure ill actually like. (in my notes app on my old phone i went through the book and wrote down all the references made in love simon and it was pretty extensive (and now i have to do this for this book. oh no guess ill have to read it again oh this is so sad whelp better start now see ya)).

and like the friendship between the characters, the dialogue never felt too forced and they talked like actual people id talk to. swearing at and bullying your friends is a love language and it was done pretty well in this, and also the sending of memes being like an important step in a friendship is too real. also the revival of interest in records, my cousins poor bank account is a testament to that being relatable.

thirdly, the story. we got enemies to friends to lovers, we got 'there was only one bed', we got a road trip, we got a sickfic, and so much more and you know that i ate it up every time.

that as well as the epic highs and lows of making friends in your 20s (lol).

the book follows Malcolm slowly becoming friends with this irl dude Peter while falling for this 'mysterious' radio host Rebo, with his friends supporting him the whole time.

like i dont really go for romantic style stories but this was just so good (but then again ive barely read anything since back when i used to inhale books at like age 12) + the chemistry between Malcolm and Peter was just chefs kiss so good man.

also, the name Goby (one of his friends) kinda got me tho ngl, gobby is australian slang for… something, and i got a jump scare whenever they showed up lol.

Edit: they Goby on my Gumby till I Cheese. I'm so fucking sorry I had to write that down I couldn't get to sleep.

the only bad thing about the book (not that its bad bad, just like if i had to pick something) would be that the ending was made out of like 3 epilogues with indeterminable time skips between them. unless i missed something idk. im just more about the 'the characters kept on living' kinda ending, less 'albus serverus potter' style stuff, not that it was even like that tho.

but also wanting to own and run an incredibly specific cafe+store with your partner is just so fucking gay. oh my god. fanfiction shit right there /pos.

lastly, i haven't read heaps of books in the last couple years, preferring movies and shows more than my childhood self who lived in books series, almost like i didnt like reality or something (unthinkable ik)(i literally had this printed out and hung on my wall)(and on me liking movies more, thats a whole nother fucking topic and a half so ill complain about it in another post)(but anyway).

like honestly, i think that i might get back into reading, even though i forgot how many hours just fly by when i read, cos this was just great. (dont tell my mum she'll throw a fucking party)(again, different topic).

also admittedly, i did sotra kinda maybe slightly pirated it and read it off a pdf BUT! cos i like it so much im probably going to buy a physical copy (for almost 40 fucking dollars including shipping Jesus fucking Christ)

ik not a single person but me will see this review but i dont care. this book was made for me about me

tldr:

Premade Sims Tea ☕️

Eliza and Bob have MAJOR issues. Eliza kind of gave up on her ambition for the business world and just became an interior decorator for their house. She craves high class to the point where Bob can’t keep up monetary wise, gave up ages ago saying no and is actively depressed, hence his traits. And between you and me Eliza is looking to step out on Bob with Don Lothario. Don isn’t much interested tho. Maybe if some of his other girls stop seeing him.

Speaking of Don, he’s cheating on Katrina with so many other women it’s nuts. There’s Nina Caliente, Nancy Landgraab, Geeta Rasoya, Anaya Jang, and Bella Goth. He’s also made moves on but is not actively involved with Lilith Vatore, Jasminder Bheeda, and Zoe Patel. Katrina has no idea and honestly it doesn’t seem like anyone really does tbh beyond the women who sleep with Don. But if you ever wanna know for sure, check the female townies sleepwear, if they wear one of Don’s old shirts to bed, they’re sleeping with him. Wonder where he finds so many of those dumb button ups?

The Goth family is nowhere near as perfect as they portray. Ever since Cassandra turned into a teen they’ve been struck by a rebellious phase. They no longer like to walk, talk, and act like their nose is permanently in the air. Honestly it probably wouldn’t have actually ever amounted to much but Cassandra has horrible teeth thanks to Mortimer’s side of the family and horrible acne thanks to Bella’s side. And Bella made it a personal mission to ridicule the poor kid so they’d be ashamed enough to cover their acne and stop smiling so their braces showed. Instead Cassandra responded with Malicious Defiance. As you can tell Cassandra changed their pronouns, not an act of defiance but more so an act of self discovery, but Bella didn’t treat it that way. They cut their hair to their shoulders, and dyed the ends purple. Mortimer’s mother, Cornelia loved it as she loved the color purple, and hated the red that Bella insisted be involved in everything. Then Cassandra changed their style, so long nerdy, modest, and simple. Hello Cassandra the kid who wears leather jackets, fishnets, and gothic makeup. Bella is pissed that she lacks control over Cassandra and with the way Alex idolizes his sister, he’ll probably be the same. As to whether she feels more shame because her kid is acting out so much or anger because her kids aren’t as quiet and obedient as they used to be is anyone’s guess.

Johnny Zest is both on a search for his biological father and for himself as he found out he wasn’t actually Geoffrey’s son. Not much on as to how he found out but that the blow out was… severe. Everyone’s relationships took a hit. Geoffrey lost both romantic and friendship points with Nancy as he truly thought Johnny was his. (Part of the reason they got married.) Malcolm lost friendship points with Geoffrey and lost all relationship with Johnny as he saw Johnny as the reason his parents were fighting. He knew Johnny wasn’t Geoffrey’s as he used to snoop through stuff a lot and found an exchange of letters with Johnny’s actual dad and Nancy told him to keep quiet because it didn’t matter. Johnny lost all relationship with everyone as they all blamed him for the revelation. So all he got was a last name from Malcolm and the words “get out and never come back.” So, he’s doing okay… ish. He’s, certainly living at least…

The BFF house is certainly one of the more calmer houses. They haven’t had much happen to them. Liberty has long been known for having a crush on Travis so they finally went on a date! But, it ended kinda awkward with Liberty and Travis kissing and Liberty realizing she’s actually not into men… Like at all… Travis may have suffered a bruised ego but they’re still great friends! Summer however is having a harder time adjusting to Liberty’s new pride. She loves Liberty like a sister and supports her no matter what, sure! But, she is from a super religious family, this is all so new and odd to her. I hope she can overcome it.

Besides Don’s eyes that are wandering all over Jasminder, Arun’s eyes are also wandering around on the women of San Myshuno. It seems he’s already regretting jumping straight into fatherhood after getting married. Though he’s kept his hands to himself so far. I guess maybe he’s just realizing he’s not a bachelor anymore who can do whatever he wants. He seems really in love with his wife though, absolutely enamored with her even. It’s probably just nerves and will past before the baby arrives. He loves Jasminder too much to cheat… right?

Raj and his mother Geeta are also another calm family. Their biggest issue is arguing over Raj wanting to quit his job and open his own restaurant. His mother however thinks it’s a stupid idea and he should get to the top of his career first. Raj disagrees and says he’d be happier owning his own restaurant so he could decide the menu as he hates the one at his job. But… some things I’ve noticed is Raj seems to be lost in thought lately and writing in a journal a lot too. I think this job thing is really bugging him, unless it’s something else? He must be really good at keeping it inside if that’s the case. Geeta meanwhile finds comfort in Don after arguing with her son for days on end. Pretty sure that affair started back when Raj’s dad was still alive. They just never stopped after he died. Honestly I think it’s just comfortable for Don at this point.

The Jang’s are pretty happy and normal. Except for Anaya’s affair of course. Anaya has pretty much convinced herself she’s not in the wrong at this point. She blames Baako as she feels he’s grown distant from her since Billie was a little object baby. He just doesn’t seem all that interested in her anymore. So she fell right into Don’s arms and she’s been there ever since. Especially when Baako does daddy/daughter dates with Billie since those usually last all day.

That’s all the tea for now, perhaps there will be more from other families in the future. 👀

[dxsturbia]

But it’s all interlocking

Martin Luther King and Malcolm X are assassinated and men of color are disproportionately rejected from higher education. We are no longer segregated at that.

In addition to the network of HBCU, we poor millions of dollars in scholarships grants, enlistment education athletics

For Ivy and state

But it doesn’t stop there depending on the roster at your company we’re gonna be shuffling the resumes

At least one is going in the acceptance pile

And it’s not Stop there either

Children longer be responsible for the sins of their parents you will not deport young children of school age

And it still does not stop there

Children will be held back grade levels due to chemical imbalances in their brain. They will not be denied access to education they will not be forced to take an equivalency exam or dropout

Children will not be deprived of a school board, sanctioned education based on the assumption that they are too disabled to learn

You will not isolate a child from their peers and then tell them they are stupid because they are disabled

You will not take the future and life of someone else’s child into your own hands and squander it

Jessica Jones S1E6

I DID THE BULLETPOINTS AGAIN! I impress even myself.

Bastard bastarding all over the place.

If he's been Kilgrave'd you can't fight him. Yeah like Jess said.

What happened to Luke? Is it in his series??

"Conversation" so that's what happened.

Jess come on, you're the one that broke up with him. You can't ask that.

Sissy Garcia. What a name.

I like Sissy Garcia, let it be known!

Oh FUck.

Kilgrave is the antithesis of subtle, how has he never been investigated or caught before this?

Oof he's salty. And it's deserved I suppose.

She's a great PI, love her.

Her terrible high-pitched phone voice is so funny.

Voice of Reason Luke Cage! It is gonna be so damn funny to see him, Jess and Matt in Defenders. He's gonna have an aneurysm.

Aw Malcolm trying to help Jess. I love him so much.

That was a little passive-aggressive, Jeri. I want to believe she genuinely likes Pam but also she's a bitch.

"First, the divorce." Words to live by.

Ooh Malcolm spilled. Probably shouldn't have done that but hey, Jessica definitely wasn't gonna start the conversation.

Luke is correct in saying it's not her fault, but I wonder if he'll stick by it when he finds out.

DON'T KISS HIM HE DOESN'T KNOW.

Love that running from intimacy - OH SHIT SHE GOT BACK IN BED? STEPS.

Oh god. Jess, you gotta tell him.

Oh nooooooo.

Okay so Kilgrave wanted whatever Reva hid and then killed her. Fuck. Jess you have to tell him!!

Malcolm is on the "Jessica needs therapy" train and he is right. Choo choo motherfuckers.

Are his powers still fucked? How long do the drugs last?

Oh buddy. Lying does not work in the long-term. Jess and Matt both have this problem and I Haaate it.

That's a lot of pot(s).

Convenient dogs to distract Luke are convenient.

"I pray my dick get big as the Eiffel Tower." POETRY.

That poor plant! The collateral damage is so heartbreaking :( Glad the dogs are good tho.

This fight feels. Chill?

JESS DO NOT LEAVE HIM??? WHAT THE FUCK.

Bad decisions, being made right in front of my eyes. Honestly, at this point Luke, the red flags are sirens. Why are you still here.

Also, for clarification: I like Jess! I don't think Reva's death was her fault. But this is no basis for a relationship, especially when he DOESN'T KNOW.

DA TRUTH. IT IS HERE. Oh no it's not. It SHOULD be but you keyed its car tires and now it's stuck on the side of the road, lonely and cold.

Honey do NOT kill that man. How many times must I say that to people on this show.

Hoe don't do it!

Unstoppable force vs immovable object.

THE TRUTH HITCHHIKED! IT HAS ARRIVED FASHIONABLY LATE.

YEAH. YEAH SHE DID SLEEP WITH YOU. IT WAS A BAD IDEA.

"It just happened." You just fell on his dick??

The fallout. It is devastating.

See this probably wouldn't have hurt half as much if you'd just. Told him.

This is excruciating, ow. My tearducts.

Ohhh the cut to Malcolm. Perfect.

DNA samples? But for the case or for the powers? Why do you trust Jeri, Jess, she is so sketch.

Why does Kilgrave want a house?? Is it for his sick domestic fantasies or something?

Oh fuck. Yeah ok it's her childhood home. Of course it is, fuck.

He is so damn CREEPY. I'm disgusted.

[papasmistakeria]

Can’t stop thinking of the fact that both Connor Trinneer and Dominic Keating have a podcast all set up with a Patreon and a Discord server for said podcast

[pupkinpumpkin]

*LONG INHALE*

DaO: Alistair. I WAS gonna romance Leliana my first time, but Alistair was super funny and he was very sweet in the way he flirted so I was like, why not? Maybe I'll end up liking him in the end (spoilers: I never did, I personally see him in a brotherly way). So I romanced him as Surana, and I made him stay a warden bc he wasn't happy as a king right? Well that funny little fade quest in Inquisition happened and I decided I was going to leave Alistair behind bc I just cared about my Hawke too much, but he started saying shit like "Oh I can't wait to be back with the love of my life and we'll finally be together and no one can tear us apart" and UGHHH FUCK, so after some deliberation, I left Hawke but that felt horrible, so I decided to make my canon HoF a Cousland so Alistair and Hawke DONT FUCKING DIE ON ME and he can still be happy as king with my Cousland besides him as queen

Da2: Anders. Honestly, no one in Da2 was my type, so I chose Anders because he was the most narratively intriguing one as a non mage. I'm personally not a fan of his romance path because most of it is " Are you sure are you sure are you sure are you sure I love you Are you sure?" Which I understand, but kinda gets me down. He does have some really sweet lines tho like

"No mage I've known has ever dared to fall in love. This is the rule I will most cherish breaking." That's pretty rad.

I also like the equally sweet but also slightly disturbing,

"I would cover us in blood to protect you"

But ya, I think the narrative parallels to Leandra leaving a life of wealth and fame for an apostate mage (Malcolm) and Hawke leaving her life as champion and the wealth that almost doomed her sister (until Anders helped) to be with Anders is super rad. Plus like, Hawke literally CANT kill Anders in the end. She blames all the deaths and failures in her family on herself, so to kill Anders, the man she loves, would completely break her. She does take awhile, probably a few years to fully trust him again while they're on the run

Dai: Cullen. He is the only person I have romanced that I am genuinely attracted to. I love men who are awkward and can't flirt. Plus, as someone who played Dai first, I think seeing where he is now in DAI and then going back and seeing his journey to being there is absolutely heartbreaking. I mean, he's done and been complicit in things that I can't justify and I won't, I'm aware of that, but in DAI he's trying so hard to work on himself. He complains when you ally with the mages, but he says he won't endanger your alliance. He knows how cruel he's been to mages unjustly and is trying to unlearn that prejudice that's been taught and reinforced to him. He also decides to give up lyrium! On his own! He only goes back to it if you specifically tell him to go back on it, but in the romanced route, you can ask him what HE wants and he tells you that he doesn't want to take it again. His nightmares are worse without lyrium and he gets headaches but he wants to become a better man and knows that if he can get off lyrium, then so can other Templars. He even starts a clinic in the post scenes of Trespasser! I understand why some people will never be able to forgive him, I do, and that's completely understandable, but I think his journey into being a better person is so beautiful and when you romance him, you don't fix him, because that's his journey, his task, but you're his rock. You're there for the highs and lows and you will stay by him no matter what comes. Some may see his romance and Cullen himself as vanilla and boring, but to me it's a romance of support for both Cullen and the Inquisitor as they lean on each other to deal with their burdens and trauma together (especially w my Inky's backstory, poor girl)

Also the first time I finished DAI I finally realized he has curly hair which is an absolute plus for me bc I am so attracted to people with curly or wavy hair oh my god

i’m really curious about who people romanced over the 3 dragon age games & why

here, i’ll go first:

da:o, alistair because he made me laugh

da2, fenris because i was a mage and by god i was going to make him love me

da:i, solas because some cruel god of love decided to play an awful trick on me by making me fall for him

the other most important scene in the episode 

[idreamonpaper]

*bangs head against table* I. Need. To. Develop. On. Characters.

GAH. I want to work on FTS and actually figure things out about it, but my brain won't leave me alone until I figure out what happened in the prequel. I feel like things would be a lot smoother if I at least had the first draft of the prequel done. Then I'd have a starting point.

Into the Shadows (I actually want to work on it) isn't so hard on me BUT CRUZ IS.

I love my phoenix boy but he HATES that time and WON'T talk about it. All I get from him is glimpses of the past and remnants of feelings that never went away.

Cruz's past with the Alpha Team is a bunch of lost opportunities and haunting "What ifs". He's never let go of Malcolm, the utter devotion he had to him still lingers, and Slayer's eyes, the way they softened around Cruz, still haunt his dreams.

Cruz, Cruz, buddy, YA GOTTA WORK WITH ME HERE.

what do the family dynamics of your hawkes look like and how are they different or similar? (inspired by the ask meme sibling question!!)

Omg thank you for this question. Much to unpack with these guys in all directions. Not sure where to start so I'll go hawke by hawke i guess (this post got so long so I'm putting it beneath the cut lol)

Caleb - GOD OKAY. caleb is my canon hawke so i have the most thoughts about him so this is about to be a mile long. caleb has a massive eldest daughter but a boy complex that primarily dates back to an incident as a child where he blames himself for his father almost being caught by the templars, but also only been reinforced over the years of trying to protect bethany and then stepping up as basically the head of the family after Malcolm died. i know Malcolm is supposed to have the same basic personality as hawke but my Malcolm in all worldstates except camillas (will get into that later) primarily has the blue/green personality and is like. a generally pretty upstanding guy who didn't want this life for his children but also knew there wasn't really any choice if he and his children were going to be free. he didnt want to raise his sweet eldest son to feel like he needed to be Protector of the Family but like. what else was he going to do. if Malcolm died or got captured by templars someone had to be ready for that. and as a result caleb has always kind of hero-worshipped his father and is constantly measuring himself against what he feels like Malcolm would have wanted him to do.

and that extends into caleb's messy relationship with carver, because if Malcolm saw caleb as his replacement, then caleb saw carver as his. and in a lot of ways it makes sense he expected the same from carver that he did from himself: they're both boys, both non-mages, both two-handed warriors, I even hc they both take after the hawke side of the family physically while beth takes after the amell side. but caleb expecting so much out of carver also makes carver resent him, and when carver tries to confide in him about how much he hates having their lives defined by magic, caleb takes it as like a personal betrayal against the family and doesn't want to engage with it. (also the girl carver had a crush on had a crush on caleb which was so unfair and unbearable for poor carver). it's not like he's mean to carver or anything, but he's definitely not understanding in the way he could be and this isn't something that hits until carver dies. which sucks and is something he's going to feel guilty about forever :/

he has the pretty typical hawke relationship with leandra i think. he wants his mom to like him and he knows she loves him but. its hard sometimes. leandra is hard to deal with and when she's disappointed in him it's another reflection of the way he feels like he's failing his father. and then BETHANY he loves bethany and by the end of things she's the only family he has left. after a lifetime of doing everything to protect her seeing her become a grey warden is honestly agonizing bc she's so miserable and there's nothing he can do about it but it gives bethany the space to work through her negative feelings about all she's been through and i ultimately think she comes out better for it

catherine - my og hawke :) i think her dynamic with Malcolm and leandra wasn't unlike calebs but just wayyyyy less intense bc catherine is simply less inclined to take things So Fucking Personally. from an early age she learned sometimes you have to stab some guys to protect your family and its fine. that's just how it is. i don't think she and carver were super close but they had a pretty classic older/younger sibling relationship. they loved each other and bickered and cat never took carver's shit too seriously bc he was her dumb kid brother. catherine was also really protective of beth tho and when she went to the circle and then liked it there she took it PERSONALLY. bethany is actually probably her most fucked up and strained relationship in her family and out of all her companions. she loves her sister she would do anything for her but she also feels unbelievably betrayed that bethany is happy in a place she worked so hard to protect her from. they work it out eventually but i genuinely don't think they're on speaking terms for like another 5-10 years post da2

cassian - cassian hawke love of my life is a huge sweetheart but is frankly pretty self absorbed at the beginning of his story and really just did Not internalize any of the family pressure my other hawkes did. he's a talented mage who took malcolm's instruction seriously and is very nice to his mom and so managed to get through his whole childhood with a very nice relationship with his parents. i think he and bethany had a pretty solid relationship but were never close despite being honestly very similar people in many ways. the carver relationship was TENSE bc carver was wildly jealous of cassian (cassian is nice in a way that makes everyone like him, he's better looking so the girls all had crushes on him, he was always in good shape despite not needing to be as a mage, he got more attention from their father because he was mage, he was even just naturally good at magic and Malcolm was always commenting on it) and cassian just never really got why carver acted the way he did with him. their relationship does actually improve as its put through the test in kirkwall too (and as cassian gains more perspective on the world and has his arc) and they end the game friends

calliope - rebellious streak a mile wide. she never did blood magic while Malcolm was alive but she was always asking questions pushing the boundaries of what she was allowed to do and it worried the shit out of him. she was good though, and their relationship was overall positive, but he was always warning her about the consequences of going too far. i don't think leandra was as attuned to that honestly, and it wasn't something Malcolm ever brought up to her because he didn't want to worry her. calliope was always pushing back against leandra and challenging her when she felt like she was wrong but at their core they both had a lot of love for each other. and cal LOVED bethany. would have and probably did kill for bethany. and bethany loved calliope a lot albeit in a "that's my crazy older sister” kind of way and was terrified when she realized she had started doing blood magic. that caused some fighting between them but honestly cal just never took bethany's objections particularly seriously. the carver relationship is more complicated bc they never got along and calliope was such a bitchy older sister to him. and carver knew EXACTLY what cal was even if he wouldn't say it. frankly cannot rlly blame him for joining the templars. there is still a lot of love there though, and as much as they might fight with each other they wouldn't hesitate to defend the other if they were in danger

camilla - PLAY DADDY LESSONS BY BEYONCE. so malcolm in this worldstate had the red personality just like his daughter and also had the same expectations for camilla that caleb internalized just. more intensely. my read of Malcolm (in all world states) is that despite being an apostate he still has a very conventional circle educated philosophy of magic and (in this worldstate) i think impressed hard on bethany, as well as carver and cam, the importance of highly disciplined magic, the importance of being an exceptional mage who didn't make mistakes lest the results be dire). this translated into cam being pretty brutal when it came to protecting her family but also having a very critical outlook on mages despite coming from a family of apostates. she loved and admired her father for being a strong, disciplined man, and also hated him sometimes too for condemning them to a life on the run. she wanted her mother to love her soooo bad and I'm sure she did but leandra just never responded to her intense, easily angered daughter as well as she did to sweet little bethany. cam got along with both her siblings like. fine. growing up. they fought sometimes, they played sometimes, she wasn't particularly close with either as teens. carver's death is hard on her, but not like leandra's is years later. she finally gets the validation she always wanted from her mother at the moment of her death and its AWFUL. it sends her down a spiral -- leandra was killed by blood mages, who camilla has always hated, and of course she finds orsino's note in quentin's lair. the circle is complicit in blood magic, probably all the mages around her are as well. they all as good as killed her mother. she and bethany almost patch things up in the legacy quest, but when orsino uses blood magic in the final battle, camilla is certain that bethany is a blood mage too and has betrayed their mother, betrayed their father, betrayed her too and lets Meredith kill her. yoinks

I’ve seen some discussion of how it looks like Edrisa is kept out of the loop on things, so here’s Edrisa upon walking into work tomorrow to find out that Gil’s critically injured, Endicott’s been murdered, Malcolm’s sister is the one that did it, and Malcolm may or may not still be on the hook for the other murder:
