thinking about... Her (lace harding from redcliffe). thedas nr 1 just some gal promoted to sole spokesperson for ancestral trauma on a scale that doubles as cosmic horror. doing her absolute best and wearing clogs along the way.

Star light, star bright,

First star I see tonight,

I wish I may, I wish I might,

Have this wish I wish tonight.

I decided to draw more Starlight going mad with her animus powers, this time in a funky greyscale/color mix!

Regards the last reblog: Actually 3D printers have become relatively cheap and easy to use, so if you were wondering, I think I can recommend getting one now. The one that most people recommend is the Bambi Lab A1 mini, which is why I bought one as well, and I’m really happy with it, but I’m sure many others are or will be on a similar level soon enough.

alright so now that we’ve gotten some actual crumbs, it feels like it’s a good time to lay out my prediction for what da4 is going to look like. writing this in a letter and mailing it to myself

we are part of an underground organization formed from the ruins of the inquisition to stop solas from ending the world

meanwhile the wardens have been researching the blight/the location of the archdemons and discover some secret about the location of the black city/what is actually contained in it

we’re supposed to be shocked at the reveal that the evanuris are trapped in the black city and the maker doesn’t exist

the ancient elves were in control of some crazy mutating technology (like in hormak) and that was the original source of the darkspawn. the whole thing about them being from the deep roads and a dwarf concern was actually just a red herring, they’re just underground because they’re powered by lyrium and this has ALSO been an elf thing the whole time :)

anyway, now we need to Double Make Sure the veil stays up because the evanuris have something even worse cooking up in the black city and we need to prevent them from unleashing a super blight and destroying all life, and our job is to convince solas to give up, not because we disagree with his plan but because his actions will have unintended consequences. even if he doesn’t care about everyone else and wants to rebuild the world, he won’t even be able to do THAT because the super blight will kill elves too. so although we WERE enemies we will have to band together to defeat the greater threat etc. it will be optional to recruit him as an ally/advisor, or you can just fight him directly and take control of his forces

we will have to cross into the fade AGAIN and storm the black city directly to put a stop to whatever’s going on in there

//Messing around with an old character maker game again (No link this time because it's on Flash.point lolll)

[psychoticwillgraham]

yknow how they say 'write what you know'? well i thought of a hannigram oneshot that's SO niche concept wise that it's pretty much just a thing for me, which is a doll collector au, specifically ball jointed dolls where they're both collectors and first meet at a local meetup. i just want an opportunity to yap about bjd's and work my blorbos into it ok. or a version where they both collect fashion dolls and hannibal does doll customs and will makes disturbing horror sculptures out of old dolls. is this anything.

[welcometoteyvat]

too little gfx in the tags lately this is so unfortunate

[badbugbotblood]

I'm so thankful to people like you that keep the WIR fandom alive [genuine]

Hcgcjvjkb you should direct this at awesome folks like @randomalistic and the horde of awesome theorists that revived this scene, I'm little more than a tourist and would not have been here in this capacity if it weren't for the lot of them LMAO /gen

[lesbianraskolnikov]

vampirism should be real for theres too many things i want to do

[vaguely-concerned]

I feel that during the first coffee date walk through the market, rye has a fraction of a millisecond's kneejerk trauma freakout of '...wait. wait. am I really catching feelings for a rich boy again. with how that went down last time. am I truly that stupid' (once derogatorily referred to quite openly at a party as 'young master anaxas' pet mortalitasi' to which the young master anaxas only grinned and shrugged and STILL you don't break up with his smug controlling ass for good for six more months because you have a desperate bottomless yearning pit where your self respect should go, twice shy lol). and then he actually looks at lucanis standing next to him getting harding spearmint to help with bad dreams and generally being so quietly thoughtful and sweet through the prosaic yet necessary medium of grocery shopping it makes me feel a little unwell to truly contemplate. and rye is like '*the softest fondest eyes anyone has ever turned on anything* ...you know what. I suspect we don't have to worry about that repeating, I think we're probably safe. I am comfortable being this level of stupid. (slowly dawning marital intent even at this stage)'.

(part of the reason rye buys NONE of illario's bullshit at all right from the beginning is that he's basically vaccinated against this exact type of dude after that relationship lol. charming suave guy who in the beginning pays you a lot of lavish attention and takes pains to make you feel special every time you're in a room with him -- but shallowly and mostly, it slowly dawns on you, when there's something he wants from you (and he's often doing it at the expense of someone else, raising you up to put someone else down and you won't believe this... it can turn into a seesaw at a whim. yay). and beneath that there's just a seething pit of resentment and inferiority complexes and bitterness left to fester until he can make it everyone else's problem and that IS going to start to bubble up between the cracks with you too if you stick around for long enough. no thank you been there done that wasted my youth and potential on it and all I got was this lousy shiny set of new emotional intimacy issues haunting me for life! trust me illario I HAVE, as it were, chosen the wrong dellamorte before, which is exactly how I know I didn't this time. go get him lucanis I've got your coffee

hilarious mental image: rye and illario sitting quietly together while everyone else is busy milling about during a cursed dellamorte family dinner (the vibes are so bad. you know the vibes are bad. sitting as still as you can and hoping for calm skies is your best bet without lucanis or teia favourite child privileges to work with) and rye out of the blue gazing thoughtfully into nothing over the edge of his glass with half-lidded eyes to go 'you know. you remind me a lot of my ex. not in a good way' and illario with absolutely no shame and hilariously also something that's the closest he ever gets to real sympathy going 'yeah, I get that a lot'. best talk those two ever had, unironically. their bond leveled up to its final form that day. *soulsborne boss defeated text* MUTUAL UNDERSTANDING REACHED)

[broodygaming]

I've been working on a little two player game for the past month and it's almost done and im GIDDY!! Sure wish I could show it to my friends to playtest haha, thing is im MAKING it FOR said friends. So I guess I just hope that it friggin works.

The trick is, a lot of it is logic based. And there's just 0 way to know if other ppl will think the way you want them to think. I think it makes sense, but that means fuck all if no one else does. I'm gonna try and post it on like, reddit or something and see if I can get ppl to play it and I'm thinking about emailing my fav low end streamers and see if they'll play it, not like to promote it cuz it's not for sale, just to see if it makes sense to ppl

Obligatory, if anyone here wants to play it and has a buddy to play with (all it requires is you both have a copy of the game and can hear each other, but not see each others screen, playing it remotely on discord is perfect and exactly what it's set up for. It's kinda inspired by the game The Past Within, not in theme or mood or even puzzles, but I played it last year with my friend and was so tickled by the logic aspect of creating a game that has two sides but ISNT connected to the internet that I couldn't let the idea go) - PLEASE just message me and I'll link you to the dropbox file!

zane vs bane:

both having cybernetic fangs for the aesthetic and the usefulness with spy shit

[unproduciblesmackdown]

speaking of happening to manage to go away to college ft. a shakespeare theater within walking distance & not just student pricing & pwyw but a freshman course taken at/with the theater / company, fun to think about all the nonzero exposure scattered all around to Theatre that i could be interested in & engaged with & respond to the idea of theatremaking big time but i had no context for this lmao like well i assume everyone adores Rehearsal & Playing A Role & Being Backstage or In The Greenroom just doing your own thing & the Idea of more of this, so that i feel neutral/average really

like on the note of no context, started dance classes as a Thing To Do when i was all of three? four? on the basis of [older sibling doing that] b/c like how else do i choose doing something. also did that w/[older sibling is being taught playing piano] + that i like to know how to do many things, like determined speedrunning of an edutainment learn to read computer program when i was three, except playing the piano never caught on for me (it'd be fine if it got to the point a song was muscle memory but i never got the hang of oh this note written here is [whatever it is without me having to count the steps in the staff] & ah that's here [without me having to look / count the keys]) so that was a miserable half hour weekdayly requirement for years. whereas dance was alright, & for a while the performance angle could be kind of fun for rehearsal, onstage, costuming, but didn't really have Roles, & was yknow everyone doing the same part at the same time & taller people in the back if there's rows, what older students did seemed more fun, plus like an annual nyc trip some did which didn't happen by the time it was relevant to me....but when it finally kind of kicked off like oh boy pointe shoes have panache & Make Noise (i suppose ideally you're quieter with it but ideally to me, Clonk Bonk Tap. & why not) but speaking of why not, that this also involved like oh shows that have Scenes & Roles even if this is all dance w/pantomime, got solos, costumes, more acting adjacent, more rehearsing, plenty of fun to me, unforch one of the most fun shows was ballet but in less Classical form & more character styles & i had the parent who could make anything into an ego issue who decided things Ought to be Classical despite knowing i enjoyed the more character style techniques as much or more lol so that was like, oh boy an adagio claire de lune quartet? pinch me. however a few more wins in there, fun getting to do a Cats inspired facepaint leg/armwarmers character that some absolute random audience member apparently liked so much their dad was like hey your number one fan, can we get a pic. which is in fact a great basis of an interaction to me

had a damper on dance class anyways from like lord the increasing gender "i'd rather not wear fitted dance garments" problems & my left knee getting more sensitive & my just more wearied like i don't see Fun Performances down the line, i was never doing this besides as a hobby, i'm gearing up to go to college where i kind of assume i could fail asap but the idea of keeping up with dance classes too is a bit much so what if we just didn't....meanwhile a drop of Drama(tm) in middle school, but just as like cycle of elective courses four per year so very Brief & i don't think was part of 6th grade's & yknow, middle school. but it was really fun to me still, not sure what all i even learned lol & yet. & like one time it was like uhh write your own scenes / play & Writing Original Stuff has never been a thing for me & is not only unrewarding but yknow difficult like i don't know. writing Vocab Sentences in like first grade i started to get annoyed at how contrived it felt & the teacher complained the sentences were too simple like clearly the context of what the word means is there but i'm sick of making up narrative beats & character arcs that have fuckall to do with me understanding what a bleacher is, but when i decided to Theme them on a computer game i enjoyed then i could rock n roll lol....anyway so Writing Material just became throwing preexisting characters in a bin & just being silly making jokes / stringing some fun plot along w/the acquaintances in the group assigned to be making this, & then Performing it was a high time i was like i love to do fun comedic stuff & be a villain, throwback to fourth grade and doing scenes from julius caesar like yaayyy nongendered casting b/c all the roles are guys anyway & i'm technically a villain which i enjoyyy, but i'm also like i wish anyone told me anything at all about acting techniques, i don't know what i'm doing beyond [talk loud enough]....feedback on the middle school class homemade performance was that nobody really knew what was supposed to be going on while watching it lmao like well that's fine b/c i'm not interested in writing fuckall, could've stood to have feedback that Enjoying Performing Onstage even that goofaroundly wasn't just expriencing the universal baseline lol ah well. my useful personalized feedback from middle school besides that as ever it was great that i got good grades & kept my head down (reading) was the librarian saying nobody checked out rebecca but i might like it, i did have fun & it's like oh nice when there's pleasant nontransactional gestures For No Reason i.e. you didn't even have to "earn" them, i was just getting to hang out reading in the library at the end of the school day. fond memory still like ah being readily handed one of the crushed oreos & gummy worm cups at the end of some early elementary school year Just Because i was there, wasn't that moved by like figurative pats on the head for good grades or what have you when i understood the conditionality of that just fine

in college like Introducing That Shakespeare Theatre like i sure did respond to getting to be up close & personal w/some professional actors & acting & plays, great time attending....kinda was tempted to get involved in the school theatre going on w/classes or productions but at this point it was like, i don't want my parents to be involved in anything at all ideally but especially not something i do suspect i'd genuinely enjoy & care about, plus it was like uh oh there'll be all these ppl older than me with even experience doing plays in high school & stuff :/ but another real damper was being around age peers incl my roommate who still Also had theatre experience & interest much more established & would be telling me like oh you're not a tenor if you're a man or oh you're not doing xyz right that way (based on their own perspective doing a whole other activity) like i love info & tips sure but not people feeling In Charge of me or even giving the awkward biting back genuine feedback wow nice good lmao....knowing some theatre people with theatre knowledge a bit helpful like oh these are some bway shows / cast recordings from like, the '00s & on, i've heard of Some of these, i've seen some macys parade show names....still just lacking context like what the hell Is broadway, just talked about like gonna take a while like it's this location & this technical capacity based venue designation & here's further context yet. still never really Did Theatre but seemed like a fun thing of Course ppl would be interested in, but luckily some Experiencing Performances, saw live stage shows in various mediums at various levels of professionality now & then, in retrospect like oh i think i saw some bway stuff Touring a few times, i just had no idea that was a ting, nobody explained shit lmao. disinterested parents who just kind of expected you to magically Pick Things Up by virtue of existing, but also don't ambiently pick up the things i don't want you to know about, you can bet it all always worked out great....parents at least a Bit interested in theatre / specific shows / recordings was certainly handy like oh okay not everyone would happen to be exposed to some shows even thusly, sure, but again like with no context / further info or really further way to engage with that....also backing off like i ripped off my siblings' pastime when i was three re: dance classes, just b/c their doing lively musical productions in high school seems super fun like i can't Also rip them off on that one (plus even like yeah family / parental proximity & attendance like eugh....)

like that the How Do You Even Get Context like all the time i'd be amazed if stuff i read or watched that i super enjoyed was like Also something i could find in the outside world, other people who liked it, even just the ability to procure it, like wow magical b/c yknow everything is just what i experienced by myself at home w/no significant onlineness yet or way to travel anywhere else. just pouncing on proximate enough things like queer & have to go to church? hell yeah tenor harmonies time & it's always Be Quieter Be Quieter lol well everyone else step it up, there's like 5x as many sopranos with 5x the rehearsal time going over The Melody....but seriously folks. only showing up late for an online breakout popular Current Bway Musical like oh hey btw what Is any of this? & still don't much know what goes on but at least a little more than i did for sure, plus i just don't keep my finger on the pulse of fuckall, i'm not so much more likely to check out musicals for the sake of being musicals so much more than i do movies b/c they're movies, maybe a little more likely though sure lol....& i just have more of that context like ohhh yeah i did super big time like doing live performance & theatremaking stuff the ways i got to / related activities, i just figured like well me & everyone else having the exact same response i'm sure. or same with enjoying taking it in, i suppose

which nowadays it's still like bummer i Never took in any acting technique just b/c it annoys me not to have anything besides idk making it up, also bummer idk how to sing any better than [also making it up] like no technique known barely in the same way, & i just like knowing things, i'd value knowing it just for singing to myself when nobody's around & i like to do a little performing too when pertinent, e.g. more than survive in the kitchen & i'm doing the choreography lol....utterly abstract though like i love to See people acting the crap out of acting & be like oh shit damn wowww, don't Really feel like ah actor au me is just over there....not even sure like ah you can be backstage in other ways, like i do not know how lol plus likewise i just don't think it's gonna come up yknow like we'll cross bridges when we come to them, who knows in this life. but i'm having the highest time ever as Audience, not live & in person but online & lively, like oh fuck yes finally digging into the relatively nicher more specific theatre live performace acting singing musicaling stuff i'd more specifically enjoy like pointing hands to head yelling are you seeing thising getting everything that i want so i do feel like it's worked out well. maybe low level for randos acting / singing instructing just cuz i like to Know & have the Option to wrangle playing around w/effects one can engage with but in the meantime like i Have always cherished proximity & audienceship so. fr Yayyy 💖

You're more amazing than undies

Preview of a kinky villain-vs-hero scenario maker where I haven't really gotten to much of the kink part yet and I might not finish it because I mainly wanted to play around with the idea of having a few randomly-selected parts of the scenario to base your choices around and that part's done already. I could probably pivot into a pure sfw version instead

Kinky Supervillain Scenario Maker

You're going to become a kinky supervillain, with the goal of defeating your hero nemesis and subjecting them to kinky torment! First, create your nemesis by rolling a six-sided die (https://www.random.org/dice/?num=1) or just choosing.

Your nemesis is: 1: A femme fatale, wielding seduction and allure in addition to combat prowess. Not necessarily female; femboy fatales are all the rage in this city! 2: A calculating genius, an expert at gathering information who relies on plans and preparation to win the day. 3: A brash hothead, whose extreme skill and talent are surpassed only by their confidence and ego. 4: A grim vigilante, who takes everything seriously and never lets their guard down. 5: A novice prodigy, gifted with especially strong powers, but with very little experience using them in combat. 6: A team leader, weak on their own, but commanding a small squad of other low-power heroes.

Their power is: 1: Super strength. They can throw cars and punch through walls, making them dangerous up close and difficult to restrain. 2: Shapeshifting. They can change their appearance for stealth and espionage, or transform into animals for combat. 3: Psionics. They can read minds with telepathy or throw objects around with telekinesis. 4: Gadgets. A wide arsenal of weapons, vehicles, and/or other tools make up for their lack of powers. 5: Pyromancy. 6:

But they have a weakness: 1: They're very sensitive to touch, and this can even break their focus during combat. 2: Their powers work on a strict time limit, after which they're completely powerless for a good while. 3: They secretly enjoy being helpless and at a villain's mercy, making them less likely to resist or escape once defeated. 4: They avoid seriously hurting you, for either legal or personal reasons. 5: They're naive, oblivious, and gullible. 6: They share one of your kinks.

You have your own powers and assets, purchased with Villainy Points. You have [INSERT NUMBER HERE] VP to buy perks, and you can get more by picking drawbacks. By default, each perk costs 1 VP.

Copycat: Pick a power from the hero power table to gain, but it's slightly weaker than the hero's version. You can spend an extra +1 VP to make it just as strong, and a further +1 VP to make it even stronger!

Flight: You can fly around, letting you get wherever you want and making you difficult to catch. For +1 VP, you can fly super fast!

Illusions: You can make illusions that are convincing at a glance, but are slightly transparent. For +1 VP, they'll be properly opaque, and they'll be able to trick the other senses too.

Hypnosis: Mind control! It works easily on civilians, but to use it on someone powerful, you'll need to wear them down first. It wears off with time, but you can implant triggers for a strategic advantage or a funny prank.

Handy Henchmen: You get a gang of goons that obey you without question. They aren't very smart or strong, but you've got a lot of them. For +1 VP, they're strong and skilled, and of average intelligence.

Villainous Vehicle: A car, a blimp, or even a submarine, you get whatever vehicle you want, tricked out with all sorts of special features and gadgets. You can buy this multiple times to get multiple vehicles, or one vehicle that can switch between forms.

Evil Lair Deluxe: You already had a lair, of course, but now it's got everything a villain could ever want! Supercomputer, defense turrets, sex dungeon, all the necessities!

Power-Sealing Cuffs: Lock a super in these handcuffs, and their powers will disappear. They're big and heavy, so using them in combat is difficult, but they're great for capturing! For +2 VP, you can make them lighter and easier to use in combat, even changing their shape into something such as a whip.

Filthy Rich: You might already have money that you used to buy your other perks, but ill-gotten gains are hard to use outside the black market. Now you have loads of money to spend legally! Unfortunately, the black market doesn't accept cash, only VP. For +1 VP, you go from millionare to billionare; anything that can legally be done with money, you can do it.

Escape Artist: No matter how the hero corners you, you always have some trick up your sleeve to escape back to your lair. If the hero wants to capture you, they'll have to find your base and challenge you on your home turf!
