The Spice-off

I had been planning to do groceries for two weeks, and lo, the groceries had not yet happened. So I Instacarted, because being a functioning human being is more important than all the reasons I normally don't use instacart (cost, evils of a gig economy, my roommate works at the freakin grocery store). And I ordered one (1) pack of the Cheap Pork Chops, only to receive 2 (I guess the packs were smaller than the units on the website or something??).

So I'm having a spice-off.

On the left, my normal default: penzey's cajun seasoning, salt, olive oil, tried and true.

On the right... I had a whole bunch of those little seasoning packets penzey's likes to send you for free to tempt you, and although I came close to opting for the fajita seasoning, I did go with the Mural of Flavor, instead.

Treated both sides the same--salt, olive oil, coat both sides w seasoning--even though the Mural of Flavor said it didn't need salt. (Actually, I think the Cajun seasoning says that, too. Fuck that--I want salt.)

And now... we wait. I just flipped them at the halfway point, and I have to say, my house smells fucking amazing.

caterina's datamined character description calling her korean-italian and early lucanis designs having him look east asian . i'll just do everything myself i guess

assorted thoughts: caterina is fully 'korean' or whatever the thedas equivalent would be in this design, and clawed her way to the top of the crow food chain after years of work. their armor is something caterina forcibly incorporated to distinguish house dellamorte from the other crows, and a symbol of their status because they get it custom made or imported. of course race-equivalents do not really exist in thedas or this world but i also will never forget how gaider just implied (east) asian people don't exist in thedas because it just so happens that there are no asians on the continent of thedas (guy who forgot about boats) . explode and die. there's not the same kind of discrimination as exists irl ofc (and the dellamortes are actually treated fine, much better than a mage or elf) but a level of xenophobia against foreigners from a different continent. illario looks the least like her, and passes for being fully antivan, which changes how he is recieved by the other crows.

and sorry if the korean is bad please actually let me know if it's horribly translated i relied on google translate . if you are one of ten asian dragon age fans feel free to talk to me at any given moment.

I'm right everyone else is wrong I really love these aus everyone should keep making them

This is how you reciprocate Alucard's weird obsession thing btw. Like to him you just said "I do". You're never getting rid of him even if you survive and he doesn't

Ok BurningCheese/GoldenSpice nation, repeat after me: Burning Spice is insanely jealous of Smoked Cheese and doesn't want him within 5000 feet of his precious little thief ever :)

(Smoked doesn't like her like that, never has never will, but Spice won't listen. They hate each other and have zero patience for each other's nonsense even without Golden Cheese around. Oil and water, these two)

Drawing baau crepe is pretty satisfying actually. a little therapeutic. their design is just very fun and simple and it helps that it’s one of my favorites

At this point the response Amanda gave about leaving main universe timebomb to fan’s imagination has made the rounds and I’d just like to say that not only is that dumb but the AU is low key (high key but I’m trying to be nice) a waste of their dynamic.

These two are weirdos. The reason the ship even exists is because they started making eyes at each other before a duel to the death with the corpses of enforcers all around them. The undertones of the bridge are situationally very bizarre and that’s what makes it fun.

Ekko has been hurt by Jinx, she’s killed his teammates and friends and pushed away his attempts to help her but he’s still willing to pull out their old kids game and smirk at her like that like this is some kind of mating dance.

Jinx likely at some point felt that he abandoned her like everyone else or at least wanted her to change, be Powder. But fighting her is accepting her as Jinx, she’s comfortable with their tussles. Comfortable enough that her blinding rage at Cait and Vi is put on hold for a second. She seems surprised when Ekko goes in seriously and we see that she has shot underneath and beside him multiple times to avoid hurting him.

They regularly fight violently but you know they would hate to see the other get hurt and would save them without a thought.

I could definitely see Jinx flirting with Ekko just to be annoying but getting flustered when he actually gets flustered. Like they want to kiss so bad and both of them are actively mad about it.

I guess the writers did cook with “always a dance with you.” cause a dance or game is always what comes to mind with these two.

Let them be weird.
