#𝐈𝐍𝐅𝐄𝐑𝐀𝐄𝐋𝐒. “ methinks, by most, ‘twill be confess’d, that 𝔡͟𝔢͟𝔞͟𝔱͟𝔥 is never quite a welcome guest. ” ~ extremely private & highly selective 𝐑𝐀𝐏𝐇𝐀𝐄𝐋 of BALDUR'S GATE 3. low activity blog. some canon divergence but mostly canon compliant.

I. this is a very low activity blog. my caard is a work in progress and i'll finish it when i have the time. expect very spotty activity and SELECTIVE replies & following. i will only do what i am in the mood for, as i don't want to force myself to do replies when i'm not up for it. i rather put my all into something or not at all. i rather get one giant reply out every few days and be happy with it than many in a short period and they're all half the effort. we're all about QUALITY over quantity here at inferaels.tumblr.hell!

II. i'm here to give you all the raphael romance we all know we deserved!! but all jokes aside i'm quite open to ship but like everything else on this blog i will be picky about it to some extent. please do not push me to do anything, especially ship. i am not scared to block people.

III. if i don't follow you back, PLEASE don't overthink it. i'm just picky, there's not much else to it. don't take it personally, don't dwell on it. i'm just a stranger over the internet and my not following is really not a huge deal. i'm not that important. i've just grown to be very selective and that's okay. i'm not active enough to write with everyone.

IV. i'm going to take a lot of influence from theatre for my portrayal. mostly of the more tragic and darker genre. especially faust. i just have a lot on my mind and my brain is going 100000 miles per minute.

V. look, i'm new to the bg3 rpc but i know for a fact that a fandom this large & with such a boom... it's going to have its mess to it. i'm not interested in petty behaviour, nor will i entertain it. i'm here to write and share an interest with those who care. i don't want to hear it, don't gossip to me about people. this is a mere hobby and it's not that serious.

had an icebreaker activity in my psych class today which was "talk about something you're passionate about for 60 seconds" and i kid you not, i started rambling about phoenix wright's backstory for well over 3 minutes and didn't realize i went over the time limit because everyone was really interested especially the bit about dahlia's part in phoenix's life and kristoph gavin

Dahlia

"Dahlia Petals must be the shyest neighbor one has ever met. Though incredibly kind once you get to know her, it is near impossible to catch her for a greeting. Dahlia is an intellect in all seedlings and plants out there. An expert florist whose colorful flowers are sure to brighten everyone's day and home. Yet, it seems that poor old Dahlia is just not as bright and colorful as the flowers she grows."

Dahlia Petals has light yellow felt skin, strawberry pink hair made out of yarn (most likely braided), and freckles that are supposedly made out of glitter. She wears a mint green dress, rainbow leggings, and a flower chain on her wrist, with some flowers adorning her hair. She also has very noticeable dark circles under her eyes, which are due to how hard she works (or it could be because she lacks the right amount of sleep). Dahlia owns a flower shop and has a greenhouse in her backyard where she grows them. She is quite short, always being smaller than all her friends. She has a weak immune system and is always getting mysteriously sick, however it seems that none of the other residents of Welcome Home do. Dahlia has two sisters, Ammi and Verbena Petals, the three of them being triplets. Dahlia is the youngest of her large family and was constantly called the 'runt' because she was so short compared to the abnormally tall genes her family was graced with.

She struggles with self esteem issues and is always comparing herself to others. Dahlia is constantly paranoid and has clear mental problems, most likely caused by childhood trauma. Because of this, she can easily be fed lies about her from anyone with bad intentions. Dahlia has a tendency to believe that everyone in the neighborhood hates her and wants her to pack up and leave. She very rarely can be seen leaving her property, and gets her groceries specially delivered. Some might describe Dahlia as a 'shut-in', if you do, you'd be correct.

Despite this, she is very close to Eddie Dear. They talk every day, and if Dahlia doesn't get a call from him, she very well could have a panic attack or suffer a psychotic break. She is very attached to Eddie, which could be seen as unhealthy to be so reliant on someone else. It might be implied that she has a small crush on Barnaby B. Beagle, as she is depicted as always being happier around the dog than the other residents. Dahlia is also seen being taken care of by Wally Darling while she is sick, though this could just be for advertising children's medicine. She is suspected to have a deep rooted fear of the dark, and expresses concerns with having night terrors as a child. Dahlia has said that the worst time of the year is Halloween, because she hates going outside at night. However, Dahlia loves any holiday or birthday that arises, because it means she gets to make special bouquets for her fellow neighbors.

Little bit nervous posting this, but I spent so much time on this and don't want it to rot in my drafts uhhhh yeahhh. If you don't like it, I don't give a fuck :3

Twst OC Bio: Victor Callahan

Time for some more RSA ocs! I've been stuck on this one for a while because I couldn't come up with a name I was happy with. I might change it in the future.

Unique Magic: Hindsight (He can briefly see into the immediate future. The catch is that the more this is used, the more unreliable it becomes due to all the possible futures blending together.)

School:

Grade: 3rd year

Club: Fencing

Best Subject: History

Preferences:

Hobbies: Collecting knives, testing random potions

Pet Peeves: His intrusive thoughts

Favorite Food: Lemon cake

Least Favorite Food: Onions

Talent: Can tell the difference between almost identical shades of a color

Misc:

Species: Human

Based On: The White Queen

Likes: Ducks, plushies

Dislikes: Dogs, overwhelming smells

Pronouns: He/him

Orientation: Aroace

Hair: White

Eyes: Greenish brown

Rambling:

Okay this is going to be a long ramble because I have a lot to say. This was another of my very early twst oc ideas that I never did anything with at first. I think around a year ago, I saw that an artist that I admire draw their version of the white queen in twst and I had to try to make a character from the same inspiration. The reason that I'm still not happy with his name is just that I put a lot of thought and meaning / symbolism into my characters' names. I wanted his initials to be "V" and "C" because of the vorpal sword and because of Lewis Carroll. This was the best combination that I've come up with so far, but I'll almost definitely change it if I think of something better. The vorpal sword is also the inspiration behind Victor enjoying collecting knives, and the scene in the 2010 movie where the white queen makes a potion to return Alice to normal size is the inspiration behind the random potion making and testing. Except Victor has no method behind the madness. He just throws whatever he has into a caldron and so be whatever happens. He lost his right arm in an accident when he was very little and has a prosthetic arm that looks like blue and white porcelain (I'm going to add an image of what I mean at the end). Victor is also albino. I have a hair style that I think suits him, but I have no idea what it's called. I'll put this first in the images, and I'd be grateful if someone could tell me what it's called. I'm trying to learn about black hair and hairstyles so I can properly draw some of my characters, but I'm still far from knowledgeable. As far as clothing ideas go, I really want to lean in to the impractical doll clothes vibe with his dorm leader outfit, there's also a little bit of a carnival vibe but Idk how to properly express what I mean. I found an image of doll shoes on Pinterest while looking for inspiration and I love them so much and I'm definitely making the part of his outfit. The heel of the shoe is an hourglass and I'm so obsessed with that design. Well I though that I'd have more time to talk, but I don't so I'm cutting myself off here.

Here's the hairstyle, porcelain, and doll shoes I was talking about (all of these are from Pinterest):

do you ever think about the fact that the entire phoenix wright: ace attorney trilogy happens because gregory edgeworth dies.

[mekatrio]

people saying that despite the misogyny and sexism the trilogy still likes women bc it has compelling and well written women

WHAT WELL WRITTEN WOMEN PLEASE SHOW ME THE WELL WRITTEN WOMEN. WHO THE HELL ARE U TALKING ABOUT

[reddbuster]

lord why did they make dahlia so cool looking and kinda cool behaving on accident its so funny how when capcom meant to make her all evil and shit but they just kinda made her nuanced in the end;; shu takumi is A HACK.

It's really funny. they meant to make her a 1 dimensional wolf in sheep's clothing type evil character but they fucked it up so bad they ended up with one of the most compelling villains in the entire series

[tiny-huts]

Thinking again how much I love Dahlia Legend of Drizzt. Yeah bitch murder people with a massive stick. Get their asses. Happy pride to her and her only

Forget me not outline: I have every detail written down, pre-written bits of chapters, the first lines for every chapter, I have made playlists and little sketches, and I am going to follow this exact outline no matter what

Dahlia outline: Here are the chapters, just basic synopses of them, and I've got a little bit of worldbuilding, too. Totally cool if you switch some details around

Rosemary outline: There are three outlines, they all tell wildly different stories, but they're all just titled "rosemary outline" with no separation between them, and also most of the chapters are pre-written but they were written when we were writing forget me not so they may or may not still work with the timeline. Good luck and may the odds be ever in your favor

quick holiday ask!! could i get lovebug x with james potter please <33

join the party

ofc ml and i hope u like it, love u loads!!!! sorry for the late reply btw

was so excited to do this one especially bc jamie’s literally so bf it’s unreal <33 this one exists in a universe where they all survive and peter gets locked up (thank god) bye bye voldy moldy we don’t want you here

James Fleamont Potter. That boy I swear to Godric, he gets your heart in tangles just by being him. You could feel your cheeks heating up from the way he’d yell your name across the Great Hall and the poor boy doesn’t even know what he’s doing to you, never mind what you do to him, that’s besides the point but he was damn near worried the way you felt hot under his skin when he placed a hand to your forehead. Turns out it was just a crush and he was making you feel hot and nervous.

You, on the other hand, you make him feel like he could fly (figuratively speaking, and without his broomstick but you get the point). You’re so beautiful to him and that boy swears he feels like he’s just won the quidditch cup when he hears you say his name. Long story short, he’s enamoured by you.

Now you see the marauders aren’t exactly known for their subtlety so when they make a plan to get the two of you together because they’re sick of you both being oblivious, it’s well…it’s something to say the least.

In the end, he’s the best friend and boyfriend that you could ever ask for. And he feels the exact same about you.

Sirius and Remus might claim to be disgusted by your newfound affection but they truly couldn’t be happier for you both. And it’s great when they can steal you from him *cue pouting James* and talk about your own lives and interests. You introduced Sirius to Queen and bonded over books with Remus, and even if James does miss you when you’re with his friends, he couldn’t he happier that you get along with them.

Years go by and it’s everything you could’ve imagined and more. You all live close by, literally neighbours, because what could be more perfect than that? (And because someone, who shall not be named, has slightly separation anxiety from his brother).

Can’t forget the regular scheduled visits to or by Minnie. Sometimes you guys go over to Hogwarts, crash a lesson or two and have some biscuits and tea, catching up on life and other times she’ll come over to your house for a chat and maybe some butterbeer.

Did I mention that Jamie’s love grows tenfold everyday? If I didn’t, it does. It’s the best kind of love where he just falls even more in love with you and you with him. The sort where it’s so overwhelmingly beautiful and you have so much of it that you don’t know what to do with it but in the best way possible.

Not me rereading my own fic (yet again) and being in awe (yet again) of this absolute banger of a paragraph

My review of National Security Law with Bobby Chesney and Steve Vladeck: one of the best legal podcasts, but much better drunk

[impurc-moved]

Taken by Dahlia verse:

When Alyssa was 16 months old Dahlia came for her and as promised, took Alyssa to raise as her own. She was able to take her for, Finn had Klaus, Elijah and Kol trapped in his prison. Rebekah and Freya were in the Asylum. Leaving just Damon to protect Alyssa. So when they were out for a walk in the woods, due to being constantly cooped up in the safe house. Dahlia was able to take the baby, by snapping Damon's neck, leaving Ally defenseless.

Dahlia thought that by taking her as a baby, that she wouldn't be able to remember her parents and family and therefore not attempt to leave her. She was wrong, because thanks to Ally's vampire side, her memory is stronger and sharper than that of a normal baby. Allowing her to remembers a blonde woman's smell and voice of her singing and the smell of a man with raven hair and is almost completely certain that they are her parents.

As Alyssa grew, she quickly became Dahlia's worst student, for she was always trying to escape to find her family, more than whatever Freya had attempted, regardless of the consequences that fell on her every time. For she knew Dahlia would not kill her, as she needed her magic and immortality to be powerful and live forever.

Now at the age of 18 she has escaped yet again, with one mission, find her family and get away from Dahlia for good.

So excited to finally share my full piece for the @curtaincallzine!!! I had sosososo much fun making this piece!!! the drama of 3-5 and the drama of Mozart operas, together at last <3

(details/ analysis under the cut!)

This was inspired by the final scene of the 2001 zurich production of don giovanni! the thought was Dahlia (Don Giovanni) being cast into hell by the returned ghost of Mia (the Commendatore)-- it works too well!! Also Don Giovanni/ Dahlia as the seducer is just perfect!

I included the thinker statue because it represents the statue of the Commendatore/ Mia that speaks to Don Giovanni/ Dahlia asking them to repent and then casting them into hell! Mia is on the dinner table because of the dinner table Don Giovanni sets when he defiles the statue which actually works pretty well with the gravy/ dinner that the aa cast had the night of the murder! And the rope bridge was meant to parallel the ladder that Don Giovanni casts himself off of in the Zurich 2001 production

Also!! Not only is evidence from the case falling into the river-- I included paper with the final words of the show written on it!! why??? because I'm insane!!

I never quite nailed down 1-to-1 parallels for the rest of the cast but I always saw Iris as Leporello (servant who got in over their head) and Phoenix and Edgeworth as Donna Anna and Don Ottavio (seeking vengeance for the murder/ boyfriend of the person seeking vengeance). I think Pearls and Godot could work as Zerlina and Donna Elvira but it's more about being tricked than being seduced obv. So i guess that makes Maya..... Masetto? There is also a world in which Maya and Franziska are Zerlina and Masetto if only to make "batti batti" absolutely hysterical djhshdjh. Misty Fey could also work as the Commedatore but I feel like this game as a whole is more about Mia? That's just cause i like her more tho tbh

Here's the thing about humans: there's more of them than there are of you. Good luck with French Revolution 2: Electric Boogaloo

We can survive a French Revolution. We already survived one.
