#wrong blog i don't even care

Headcanon// if this displeases you move on

I heavily think, and this will be true to my portrayal of her if it comes up, the real reason Minthara dislikes and gives Gale so much ridicule is because his goddess 'loved' him while hers abandoned her. He's a former chosen of Mystra, he had a intimate relationship with the goddess, and at least had the honor of being turned away directly rather than broken and left as a husk. Even after him wronging her Mystra reached out, though to tell him to kill himself, eventually. Lolth never, even after she seemingly broke herself free, reached out to Minthara. To her she was more devoted than Gale ever was to Mystra and yet he got so much more than she ever did. There is also the fact that Minthara is probably projecting her own self hate and insecurity onto an easy target aka Gale. He's a man, he's a wizard, and even at his lowest is still confident in his abilities. Even when he was struck down and fell to his own folly there was still that want to live as well as ability to keep going on his own. Gale growing into who he is now, the independent wizard who doesn't need a goddess to control his fate and that's bolstered by his companions in rejecting her, makes her feel even more lesser. Why couldn't she do that?? She was neglected by her goddess in her time of need and has never known her warmth, only her cruelty, but why couldn't she had broken her own chains when she was taken?? Why did she fall victim to someone elses power and control when it seemed so easy for Gale to fight it?? One thing Minthara hates is not feeling like she was enough, like she failed in some way, and Gale kind of reminds her of that. To put it simply she is kinda jealous of him and hates that so shes a dick.

As events goes on I feel she never actually 'hated' Gale and did learn to care for him similarly to the others. She moved past her petty jealously and projection and now just views being a bit mean to him as how their 'friendship' works but is still notably nicer than she was at the start of their adventure. Her way of loving him is through tough love like an older sister trying to prepare you for the world would, giving you shit and being mean but being the only one able to treat you that way. One day she would find herself willing to take up arms for the wizard as she would anyone else close to her, entirely forgetting the days where she would have gladly watched him die before calling over Shadowheart.

TLDR: I think Minthara sees herself in Gale and hates it so shes an ass more than usual to him.

You know that phrase "This meeting could have been an email?"

Maybe I'll change my mind once I finish it, but Halfway into Arc 17, I'm pretty sure This Arc Could Have Been An Interlude.

DON'T MIND ME, just GIFing some of my favorite Angeal scenes from THAT cinematic

Tumblr is always like social norms are evil and stupid and hurt people that doesn't fit in (which is extremely true and I say this all the time too)

But the moment someone do something here stupid everybody is like turn into hive mind and bully them.(not racism or bigoted stuff like terfs idk I am talking about just weird things)

Like people preach be yourself, current social norms are fucked up then mock you for not following Tumblr culture or whatever.

[carolinanadeau]

why do I always end up loving media/actors/characters who have to be Defended against common stupid wrong takes or belittlement so I'm always having fierce arguments in my head

[angeltism]

the latest aita is making me sad. the teeth one. because like... when i was a kid, i was told to have braces! and that i'd need an eventual surgery! and because i didn't want to, my parents didn't make me.

that surgery would've changed my life. i'm not fucking kidding. i'm pretty sure 75% of my physical disabilities stem from not getting that surgery. and by the time i was able to bring up trying to have corrective work again, i was two years from losing my insurance, and my parents procrastinated. now it seems like a pipe dream it'll ever happen.

i get being resentful of your parents forcing you to do things you don't want to do, but god damn, if mine had actually really pushed me into getting braces, my life would be so much different and so much better.

Not to be a prick, but your art is gonna have to be Real Damn Good to get me to interact with it if you slap something like "Don't even bother if you're not gonna reblog" on the end of the post. I'm not enough of one to like and scroll out of spite (though I'm not above thinking about it). I am, however, perfectly willing to ignore something I wouldn't have otherwise. If you're fine with a lower note count in the long run as long as it's more equal, if you think less interaction isn't gonna fuck with you worse than uneven likes-to-reblogs, then sure. Show some attitude. But if you're relying on commissions and dumb enough to think saying that sort of thing isn't gonna have consequences, I Do Not Feel Sorry For You.
