ASTARION.
i really like in fiction when they're like oh no!!! the bad guys are about to win!!! and Character Who Keeps Trying To Sacrifice Themself For The Greater Good is like. gentlemen i have an idea
something about that danganronpa pink really just hits. you know
Breaking news! Fic author starts writing a fic thinking it will be short and it turns out to be long! It is not the first time nor will it be the last!
Surprise! You thought you were getting one chapter today, but you're actually getting three!
(As in, one for Wings Outstretched and two otherwise unwritten moments from act 1 that I did here -)
Hehehe I wrote so much.
And we’re off! Next story is up on AO3, and updates should come at least once every ten days as with previous (I just realised I’m working off a tenday-based schedule, this was not intentional), and I will try to post here in case of a delay.
as an optimist i dream of a beautiful world where people are fucking normal about aromanticism
Can we talk about how when Mizora turns Wyll into his devil-ish form as a punishment... it's like really messed up? I get that it could have been much worse, but she literally violated his body irrevocably. Not for the first time. I'd probably have a panic attack if my body suddenly changed like that. Not to mention that him now looking this way is kind of devastating to the heroic, evil-fighting image he wants to present. It's like Mizora saying smugly: "who will look at you and think you're a hero when you look like *this*?" Because she knows how deep that would cut for him.
I've talked about this before, but I wish Wyll was allowed to have more moments that show that he's hurting, and I wish that his reaction to the transformation had more emphasis. Honestly his interaction at the Tiefling party is kind of heartbreaking. He basically says "you go on and enjoy the party without me. I'd just bring everyone down". Just another example of him keeping his feelings neatly tucked away for the sake of others. Wyll is going through so much in act 1 but it's portrayed so subtly compared to other characters that I think people overlook it.
people are so weird about lae’zel srsly. this woman is so Good i truly do not understand the majority of takes
like shadowheart mentions she’s half-elf once and lae’zel is like ok noted for the next time and doesnt get it wrong again
gale mentions how he’s impressed by her fighting and she immediately offers to teach him
she also answers any and all questions about the celestial realm and mindflayers that EVERYONE in the party asks her
she is the ONLY one with any experience and hands on knowledge about what the party is going thru but will still defer to the leader and help. for all she knows, they will literally be cured immediately if they find the creche but she still sticks around these fucking weirdoes because they ask her to
never speak bad about lae’zel in my presence EVER
I write BG3 fanfic about having a bad time and learning to carry on anyway! It's good fun! And also devastating!
