So how’s ride kamens going for you as I just pulled my self together long enough to read the other half of the current main story

I've been working on catching up on the event stories since they announced the upcoming main story update! (I totally bombed the last few events...they're so fast-paced and I just didn't have time...😭)

and then of course they went and dropped THIS on us today

(you don't understand, I LOVE Tajador and I already love the two blurry frames they've given us of non-silhouetted Kelka, I'm ready to absolutely lose my shit come the announcement/reveal(?) stream on Thursday --)

Buddy we literally JUST read a scroll about hubris AND you were just inspired about something called "Don't let history repeat itself," that 10 wis stat is really coming through.

btw until we get confirmation otherwise I WILL assume (spoilers for the post credit scene under the cut)

eggman literally went “huh having a family is kind of neat actually” and then just instantly made like sixty kids. at once. it’s infinitely funnier than what the canon explanation will inevitably be and therefore it’s in my heart. survived certain death and went to make five billion robot clones of your arch nemesis to raise. also the universe still is forcing him to be a girldad in this stupid au btw. they’re all individual beings And they’re all also separately some form of trans feminine. thankfully eggman has canonical knowledge on gender and he's also gay married so he can support all infinity of his daughters (he keeps making them. he is enjoying fatherhood).

I like thinking about young adult hunlow falling into a timepool and getting thrown back 4-5 years. They end up stumbling upon a younger Willow, who has not yet met Luz (or Hunter for that matter) and they try to lie to her but she figures it out because she is a clever little thing.

"Excuse me Miss Future Willow, is that--"

"I already told you I'm not you from the future. Stop saying that."

"Yes you are. I know you're lying because you're me and I'm also bad at lying. Now is....[discreetly points at Hunter who is standing a distance away] is he our boyfriend?"

"......Nnnnooooo....?"

"[tiny gasp] He is our boyfriend....[sparkly eyes]"

Is this a safe space to say I liked the bnha epilogue and didn't see anything wrong with it? 🧍🏻‍♂️it was just a fun little bonus chapter I honestly don't know why people are upset about it

Anyway I love Shouto and I hope he enjoys his bowl and chopstick making classes

I’m SO bad at descriptions and this doesn’t even have a title yet but I’ve started on that new fic I mentioned.

AU where season 4 doesn’t happen, Mike and El don’t get back together, and Mike and Will fall out of contact, only to reconnect after graduation when Mike moves to California for college.

Edit: I posted it!

hysterical actually that in the macbeth references I keep making in my veilguard playthrough because of who I am as a person I would apologize but we all know I'm going to be like this again, the parallel I'm primarily setting up seems to be for solas to be the lady macbeth to rye's macbeth. I mean. not entirely inaccurate in some essential ways I suppose fdsjahf. geez. you push on a man a teeny tiny bit for your own purposes, and suddenly when you turn your back on him for a second he's in in blood stepped in so far that, should he wade no more, returning were as tedious as go o’er. oopsie. you Unleashed something there and you can't stuff it back in its cage now the tiger is free.

(solas' whole 'aren't you proud of what you've achieved? did you think you would gain everything while losing nothing? implicit: you ignorant child who hasn't realized how the world works, like I've had to' spiel when he stuffs you into the regret prison does have big lady m 'my hands are of your colour, but I shame to wear a heart so white *proceeds to go mad from guilt and kill herself while macbeth becomes a specter of ruthless violence*' hubris energy.)

i’m sure at some point i will have more thoughts but rn i’m just…sad (jjk spoilers below)

satoru never had an easy life, i think. sometimes i almost forget how young he was when all this shit happened to him, being forced into a life without anyone asking what he wanted. when you’re ripped of your autonomy, told to “be useful,” of course you start to bleed into those expectations. you force yourself into the most convenient shape, let yourself be melded into whatever anyone else needs. a leader, a teacher, a symbol.

but he was just a person. a fucking kid, at the start. a kid who lost people he cared about, who took in so much pain and suffering that it had to ache, it had to sit heavy in his chest.

and he said he didn’t mind whatever happened to him, that he just wanted those he cared about to succeed and live a brighter future.

and they will, because of him.

but who’s there to care for him?

anyways i saw this panel from hidden inventory and it made me cry bc he just looks so young, it really hit me how unfair everything was for him from the start. he’s just a goddamn kid

i just wish i could tell him that people cared about him. that he could know how loved he was by those around him, till the very end

velastra's ending... karlach died, lae'zel left, astarion ascended, gale died in act 1 after she cut his hand off, wyll broke his pact and fucked off, shadowheart killed her parents, raphael took over the hells, the emperor switched sides, and vel stabbed orpheus once they beat the netherbrain. but at least she overcame her dark urges!

Thinking about 3 Body and wondering if the Trisolarans/San Ti had multiple “escape” plans running? They might possess the ability to terraform, admittedly this would take a long time in all likelihood but they are probably biologically well equipped to actually run such an operation.

I get why they wanted earth, an already inhabited paradise -from their point of view- planet with only the inconvenience of another intelligent -but significantly less technologically developed- species already inhabiting it. They clearly spent a lot of resources on it but it seemed like their own planets destruction wasn’t imminent, just inevitable -eventually. The *when* of course being the question that couldn’t be answered.

Clearly there were some hurdles in trying to take earth, so if they hadn’t already looked at alternative plans I’d be surprised if they hadn’t done so between discovering earth and… well later on. At least by somewhere between the second and third book anyway.

*I hope this was speculative enough I’ve not spoiled anything for show only watchers. If you are -and don’t want to be spoiled- don’t look into the tags

DATV Spoiler thing (Late-Game Crow Thoughts)

in my heart of hearts, I do not think Lucanis would remain as first talon for very long (or a crow for that matter), and if I had MY way with the DA lore the events of datv and its final battle would spell the end for the Crows, at least as the organization as we know them. I think both Tevinter Nights and datv's Treviso plotline, and even going back all the way to Zevran, demonstrate that the Crows strategy of "cruelty breeds strength" is not viable, and instead breeds bitterness and infighting.

DATV's ending is pretty open-ended, so the most optimal outcome in my opinion is after the fight, Lucanis refuses the title of First Talon (as he states multiple times in The Wigmaker Job that he doesn't want it) and publicly resigns as a Crow to join Rook's Veilguard full-time, which results in a blow too large for the Crows to handle after all their losses in the fight against the Gods. Maybe even Caterina is killed in the Big Battle, if we're lucky.

I think it would be cool if the Crows were rebuilt (most likely by Teia and Viago?) as something closer to their function in DATV, Antivan patriots protecting their home, and did away with things like the compradi and other excessively cruel aspects of the Crows. The New Crows would also let their members choose their contracts freely and leave if they want to. I don't think they'd be as influential or powerful of a force as they were before, but it would lay a more stable foundation and return them to their revolutionary roots.

Alternatively, the Crows 100% fall apart, leading to a time of chaos for Antiva, escalated perhaps by Viago actually making a bid for the throne.

Even if neither of those outcomes happen though, it does not change the fact that Lucanis Dellamorte would not accept the title of First Talon, especially after spending time with the Veilguard team, no matter the consequences. Even if the Crows remain completely unchanged and he had to become a fugitive like Zevran, I think he would. (Besides, he'd have the Veilguard protecting him, a group that quite literally just saved the entire world, in a more public way than the hero of Ferelden). Everything in his arc, from both his short story and the game, points away from the Crows.
