Spellcasters hate this fact but if you just stick your fingers in their mouth while they're casting a spell with a verbal component it's literally more effective than a counter spell.

You ran a poll last month about which game people played first, but I would be interested in also seeing a poll about which game people finished first. For me, at least, the order is very different, and I wonder if that's the case for others!

the fact that anders has canonically done survival sex work while on the run is up there with the year in solitary confinement on the list of “things casually mentioned in anders’ backstory that probably should have come up more than once.” like, i think the reason it takes a while to sink in is that he and isabela are discussing it in a casual/jokey/desensitized way and it takes a while to realize that, well, he really wouldn’t have had any other options to make money aside from like, mercenary work. did you forget that btw? did you forget that anders has canonically done survival sex work because sometimes i forget that

And here's the thing; Anders is antagonistic. He antagonizes people. But listening to his banter back to back is heartbreaking because everyone is SO dismissive of his very real, very lived oppression. He's screaming to the wind and the people he cares about the most get mad every time he refuses to joke about with them. Idk man I'd be antagonistic too.
