from the vibes you get from him in the short stories I don't think emmrich would ever do this (he seems very sweet and personable, honestly), BUT it would be extremely funny if over the course of the game he met dorian and made subtle fun of him for being a mooaboo (mortalitasi weeaboo, to be clear).
dorian really went to nevarra on holiday with his family once as a teenager, saw the goths there doing their locked tomb flavoured fuckery with all the bells whistles and bones, and then made that his entire personality and professional expertise for years even after he returned to tevinter. he's a nerd. he's a second hand goth. he's gay. he broke the fabric of space and time as a side project in university. he has alcoholic tendencies apparently inherited from his mother and immaculate fashion game. he cheats at chess. he loves fereldan beer but would rather die than admit to it publicly. he's a magister now. he's allergic to stripweed. I'm in tears I just love him so much

[Something, a rebellious employee (servant?) that doesn't get paid enough, approaches recovering Commodus's chambers, before it can get too close a small figure runs to stand between the emperor and intruder, wielding a sword that seems way too heavy for them]
Don't touch him-

HUH-
okay now little soldier at ease it's alright
[gets up wobbly]
I'm sure there's no need to do that it's just a servant i can handle it
[he tries to gently take the sword from theo]

Who would you cast as Kaz? How about all the Crows?
You're going to be disappointed in this answer, but my preference would be to go with a cast of unknown/newer actors, which inherently means that I can't give you a cast list :/ idk I just feel like that would be the best choice for the story practically and thematically.
That being said, I honestly feel like the best way to adapt soc would be in animation. I know that would literally never happen, but in general when it comes to stories with very vibey worlds and magic systems I feel like animation is almost always the best way to go. It's really easy for the sets and costumes to look cheap or super generic in live action, and that's even more true for any effects for the magic system. Soc has such a unique flavor and atmosphere that even if an adaptation had, like, game of thones money and an insane powerhouse creative team, it's just really hard for me to see it getting done right in live action.

Responsibility for public health was now understood to be a task for government, not just for working-class women who – until then – had been the only ones concerned with the cleanliness of slum houses, the only ones asking for clean water and working drains.
Tumblr media
One such working-class woman was Kitty Wilkinson, an Irish migrant in Liverpool who had been a cotton mill worker and a domestic servant. She opened up her laundry business to her poor neighbours for a penny a week, allowing them to use her boiler and bleach to disinfect their clothes during the 1832 cholera epidemic. She became known as the 'saint of the slums' and campaigned for public bathhouses for the poor.

dear mu qing haters,
WHAT.
i think u need glasses....
because u didn't really read the book did u?
there's this thing called subtext,
and i need to you to understand that what a character looks like on the surface,
is not who they are beneath!
...
original post was discussing the difference between donghua fengqing expressions when xie lian was revealed to be fangxin guoshi who committed a massacre. feng xin looked scared, mu qing had what looked like a smile on his face. people in reblogs were hating on mq even tho we all know what this man went thru and how FLAWED his reaction is what makes him the best character in tgcf :)

Wanted to share my favorite passages from a book I read recently!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Something about the way these were written gets me. Maybe it's the fact that I just felt connected to the book in general, but "Lonely children probably wrote the Bible" is such a LINE.
Book is "Lullabies for Little Criminals" by Heather O'Neil

Our flight out of Phoenix was literally perfect. The first officer pilot spoke with us before takeoff mainly teasing me about my bringing a jacket on board. He was all "are you on the right flight we are going to honolulu so you don't need a coat" That pilot was freaking hilarious. I had so many airplane questions for him which he answered all of them but wouldn't let me help fly the plane which I have experience with flight simulator. He said I needed more simulator time.🤭

The Paris slums are a gathering-place for eccentric people - people who have fallen into solitary, half-mad grooves of life and given up trying to be normal or decent. Poverty frees them from ordinary standards of behaviour, just as money frees people from work.
George Orwell, Down and Out in Paris and London
