September 23, 1857 Beginning of Layman's Prayer Revival on Fulton Street, Wall Street area.

By hymn writer Phoebe Brown. How do you deal with paralyzing fears? This question was pondered frequently in the late 1850s in New York City. News of disasters, yellow fever quarantines in Staten Island, personal calamities, and rumors of economic collapse and of upcoming civil war were dusting the streets of Wall Street during noontime breaks. A prayer gathering’s popularity unexpectantly…

Or Mordin (for the character ask) since we're having Mordin feels this morning.

From the character ask game.

This is very, very interesting, thank you! Finally, I have a chance to talk about him.

Favorite thing about them He's one of The Characters. One of my top 3.

He's so complex, so morally ambiguous, so intelligent and yet so short-sighted at times.

He heals and he kills, but not with medicine.

He has to see the results of his actions for himself, to see with his own eyes the people whose lives he has impacted.

He's passionate, he's asexual, he's ruthless, he's one of the most compassionate people you'll ever meet.

He's everything at once.

Love him, love him, love him. Least favorite thing about them Don't get me wrong, I like his redemption arc, but it feels half-baked and toothless to me.

He's the best damn character in ME2, and I feel that ME3 kinda forgets how badass he actually is. So he takes a back seat in his own ME3 story until the final climactic moment and that's it.

I think this is the only instance where making completely atrocious renegade choices (killing or betraying Wrex, killing Maelon, destroying his data and thus killing Bakara, and pushing Mordin to sabotage the cure) feels more rewarding because it has the same moral ambiguity that is an essential part of Mordin's character. Favorite line "Life is a negotiation. We all want. We all give to get what we want."

"No tests on species with members capable of calculus. Simple rule, never broke it."

"Hard to see big picture behind pile of corpses." brOTP Bakara, obviously.

I think their relationship is incredible. It's based on mutual respect and care, and I think it's one of the rare cases where Mordin doesn't just see her as a patient or a curious piece of research, but as a person, and that person interests him as much as her genetics and physiological reactions. OTP I've seen someone suggesting Aria/Mordin, and yes, this sounds like FUN.

But realistically? Mordin/Immortality. Just give my man all the time in the universe so he can continue his studies.

I think he would have been fascinated by the post-control ending Shepard. nOTP Mordin/Shep.

I've seen some cute art, but… how about no? He's clearly not interested in romance or fucking, leave him be. Random headcanon He's also a painter and he does abstract art with names like "The Presumption of Anger p.3", and you look at it and it's just a long vertical black line on a purple background. And he's very serious about this stuff. Unpopular opinion I don't think it's that unpopular, but Gilbert and Sullivan plus the seashells quote did some irreparable damage to his image in the eyes of the fandom.

Yeah, the games portray him as this quirky, babbling genius. Oh, he tests biological weapons, but not on the crew, of course not, why are you so nervous, Joker? But that's just the surface.

There's so much to Mordin behind his mannerisms and behind his sweet relationship with Bakara. There's really so much darkness in him. And all that just gets ignored, and it's so shitty?

He gets babyfied a lot, and considering the fact that he's also a positive autistic+ADHD rep in these games, it's a little insulting tbh. Song i associate with them I don't really have one, but in the spirit of pulling random indie music recommendations out of my ass, I think he would've enjoyed the sheer ridiculousness of Hydrogenuine by USS Favorite picture of them This one.

"The five Sullivan Brothers aboard USS JUNEAU (CL-52), during her commissioning ceremonies at the Brooklyn Navy Yard, New York. All were killed in action aboard the ship the following the November 13, 1942 Naval Battle of Guadalcanal. Left to Right: Joseph, Francis, Albert, Madison, and George Sullivan."

This is how Star Trek and Gilbert&Sullivan are both meant to be experienced: zero budget community theatre mashups, where the best singer is a random side character and the whole conceit of the story (being born to a specific rank) makes no sense in the setting (in the federation's equal society) and there's only one set and the lyrics are sometimes even audible

And I love it and the title is USS Pinafore

In 1737 Broughton’s Battery was built in Charleston. During the 1750s, a seawall was constructed using large boulders, stone, and masonry. Broughton’s Battery was later decommissioned and demolished in 1789. When a new wall and its promenade were completed in the 1820's, locals still referred to it as “The Battery.” Today the Battery is bordered by historic antebellum mansions and offers majestic views of Fort Sumter, Castle Pinckney, USS Yorktown, Fort Moultrie, and Sullivan's Island lighthouse.

Not gonna lie, though, it would be extremely funny if the USN just decided their next mass-produced class of ships was gonna have five different boats, each named after a different Sullivan Brother, so that we never again have to hear about the incredibly awkwardly-named USS The Sullivans

Sorry to everyone who hasn't had a boat named after him since WW2 when the Navy had a bajillion destroyers and destroyer escorts, but we need to right this wrong once and for all

(and stop naming ships after those poor bastards)
