I watched Grian in the "Yandere High School" era of his career, he used to be SO different than he is now

my favorite type of grian posts are the ones he made years ago that only got dug up recently

Just saw someone on twitter who did a tier list and put Logan in the “I cheer against you” category and my thing is like-

How???? What could he have done to earn your distaste??? DNF??? Be American???

Although I think some checo fans dislike him because he seems to be the benchmark for how bad checo is

And some Europeans do genuinely dislike that he's from America

I'm just saying, Orym knows something about being stuck on the death of your first love. Of being constantly reminded of them and their death, seeing signs of them every day, making it that much harder to get over them.

But now he has found a new love, and despite the seeing Will several times, being reminded of him every time he looks at the moons or swings his sword, he is ready to move forward. "It's pretty great, living a lifetime." He wants to try again.

If anyone would have some wise words for Keyleth to help her get through this, it would be him.

You were unsure of when you had first met Astarion. When had you first fallen in love? Maybe 200 years ago? Maybe last week? Maybe in another lifetime.

You could imagine it. You chasing for the train, Astarion yelling for you to pick up the pace, that the universe wouldn’t wait for the slow, not even someone as sweet as you. 

But you would act like you didn’t hear the last part, you would watch as Astarion’s face switched to something between disappointment and relief. You might even pretend not to notice that. The outlaw criminal, Astarion, a wanted fugitive, running with you, a fugitive from your future.

Or maybe the two of you met at a masquerade. Astarion in a pristine white suit, tailored to him with red stitching and a silver mask adorning him along with silver jewelry additions, highlighting his bright hair.

He would offer you his first dance of the night. Something in you would scream that he would also offer you his last. His last dance of the night wouldn’t be spent figuring out your footwork and pacing, his last dance would be spent adoring you. Adoring you in your classical suit, a mask almost matching his own.

You could imagine the two of you falling. Hard and fast. Towards bowling blue waves that reached higher than either of you could reach. You’d be in the embrace of him, clutching him to your chest as he held you for dear life.

That’s how he looked at you. As if you were life itself. Even if he hadn’t known the feeling of life for so so long. You made him feel like he was living, that he didn’t have to be afraid of the sun, especially when it would beam at him through your eyes each morning that rose outside of the safety curtains.

Even as you laid still, pretending to be asleep while he pretended he didn’t know, he admired you. The dawn you brought him that he wasn’t sure if he would ever live to see with you. This perfect forever. The exact way he wanted the two of you to stay. Forever, always.

Love, Astarion.

There's multiple dnd aus?!? Brb gonna check them all out 👀👀

there’s two, technically three? dnd aus!

the first is lamplight au, which is a dnd au in which Ren is a god and Martyn is his paladin. Ren has lost his body and is stuck in the form of sentient fire, and Martyn carries him around in a lantern as they search for Martyn’s party. its 50k and very fun

the second is leaflight au, which is just that but swapped. god Martyn, paladin Ren. there’s a few larger changes to the setup (such as Martyn being a plant), but it’s also fun

the third au is capture the myrkul, which is an au made w some friends for our life series /ctm map lore/characters. all of us made dnd characters based on our life series arcs, then made a “prologue” together, and have since been making up a plot based off each of the areas of the Divinity’s End ctm map we played together

there is art and fic for all three of these aus—only fic by me, but all of em have art from other ppl!

i’ll tag this post with the tags for all three, so you can find all the art/writing for them!

[detectivebambam]

hey btw short people are not children. i am a legal adult and i do not need a random stranger to talk to me in a baby voice or tell me how to cross the road. shut the fuck up

[the1970sdeadgaywizard-regulus]

Take my art (once again done in pen, because I find useful to just live with mistakes). Anyways, Jegulus, my beloved. They aren’t drawn the best, but they aren’t drawn the worst, so I’m pretty proud.

swordboard?? in my au????? it's more likely than you think

(More) Thoughts on Rosie! (And why does everyone assume all interactions with X character must mean they’re being manipulated) Hazbin hotel spoilers below!

So I’ve been seeing, not a lot, since I primarily haunt the Alastor tags, but still a few posts here and elsewhere about Rosie and how she’s manipulating Charlie for her own benefit.

And I just? Don’t see that? At all? Like, unless they meant it as in every conversation or help the main cast get from an overlord must mean that overlord is manipulating them for their own benefit. Which is just dumb.

If you were to ask me why Rosie would agree to lend her cannibals to Charlie and help her fend off the angels, then I’d say that:

it’s the princess of Hell asking for a favor, a BIG favor, sure, but a favor nonetheless. Why wouldn’t she want to build up a good relationship with her? Show her support for someone who might one day become the next ruler of hell?

It’s Alastor who’s presenting and also asking for that favor. Rosie is close friends with him, and she herself has said that Alastor has never done her wrong before. There’s no reason not to trust or think it’d be a good idea when Charlie’s being recommended? Sponsored? Backed by Alastor. Rosie trusts Alastor’s judgement, enough that she’s willing to throw her hat in the ring for Charlie.

Charlie made a good impression on her. She likes her spunk in asking for something so big during their first meeting, and even more that she’s trying to fight against what had appeared to be invincible monsters.

I wouldn’t call any of that “manipulation”, I’d call that agreeing to lend a hand for a potential future pay off. Rosie here isn’t trying to change Charlie’s mind or behavior, she’s encouraging Charlie to do what Charlie had set out to do in the first place. When Charlie opens up about her relationship problems, Rosie doesn’t try and force a wedge between her and Vaggie, she asks Charlie what she really feels underneath all the upset and confusion and helps her find the answers she’s always known.

Just what about this is manipulative behavior?????

Like, you can argue that Carmilla helping Vaggie was done more out of self interest (protection of her loved ones without needing to actually fight in the resulting war) than what Rosie did for Charlie was. But no one’s saying Carmilla is going around manipulating Vaggie. So why the double standards?

Alastor. Or what I’m gonna start calling the “Alastor Effect”. Where every character that’s on friendly terms with Alastor gets instantly dumped into the “cannot be trusted” category just because they’ve got a friendly relationship with Mr. “Do Not Trust” and so obviously they must be a bad person with bad intentions too. <- sarcasm

This is not me saying that the characters are doing this with complete altruistic intentions or out of the pure goodness of their hearts, because they’re not. They have clear personally beneficial reasons for wanting to help as they did. BUT what I am saying is that not every interaction with selfish intentions means that the character is being manipulative in their interactions.

For a show all about finding the best in souls gone bad, the fandom sure loves to assume the worst in every character.

I am working on two Mel/Ben fics

One short one where Melanie is in episode 5 and one longer one that takes place post season 4
