the best trope in media is: “characters turn on the lights, see the monster, and immediately turn the lights back off”
It took me this long to figure out that Yashahime is not, in fact, just a cash grab by Viz that Rumiko designed outfits for, but that it is an official manga written by Rumiko herself...
The well of disappointment I feel is deep, gotta tell you.
@beccacoffindaffer Hey lookit, lore
I mentioned here before that Solas and the Dread Wolf were originally separate.
Soals: I must hold back the blight! My wolf will distract Elgar'nan while you take the dragon!
And it seems at the Crossroads we could see another memory of Solas, how his connection with the wolf happened.
That happened long ago, right? Echoes of the past I think. Just stay out of their way. Some are not happy Solas is here. Why has Solas called for us? Perhaps seeking help? He requested the Dread Wolf. Very serious indeed.
Why would I ever bond with you? I need your strength. You need a challenge. You think you'll control me once we unite. No, but I suspect you desire the reverse. Hence the challenge. Hmm. This could be fun.
Nice. Why does he get to be part wolf? Did I see that right? The Dread Wolf is a separate spirit from Solas? Yeah. Seems like Fen Harel is a merging of the two.
did i tell u guys i got into an argument on twitter bc i said foxes are dogs and someone tried to bring up their actual fuckin. classification or whatever and i just said “foxes are dogs cause they are fluffye” and they kept arguing with me. the entire time i was like “you will not survive the immigration to tumblr you are lucky we are not there right now”
I need someone to do a video essay-length deep dive into how 75% of the BG3 fandom fell so hard for Astarion's manipulative seductor act that they believe that's his actual personality. This man has to practice his lines and still fumbles them constantly. He flat-out says it's all a front because he believes his sex appeal is the only reason anyone would keep him around, which is tragic. When he drops the act, he becomes this kind of silly man rediscovering what it means to be himself, and what it means to both love and be loved. He says "I'm all pointy ears, love." while turning his head to show off those pointy ears. Let him be silly, let him be awkward! It's so much more authentic then him being a walking innuendo.
He has a mid charisma stat with a bonus for deception and rolled a nat 20 on all y'all.
Now that all the official assets for the Requiem Cafe is out, can I say that, H0NE-san's art is absolutely PERFECT for translating Homestuck into Anime.
Like- THEY DID IT
hi, a lot of you need a perspective reset
the average human lifespan globally is 70+ years
taking the threshold of adulthood as 18, you are likely to spend at least 52 years as a fully grown adult
at the age of 30 you have lived less than one quarter of your adult life (12/52 years)
'middle age' is typically considered to be between 45-65
it is extremely common to switch careers, start new relationships, emigrate, go to college for the first or second time, or make other life-changing decisions in middle age
it's wild that I even have to spell it out, but older adults (60+) still have social lives and hobbies and interests.
you can still date when you get old. you can still fuck. you can still learn new skills, fashionable, be competitive. you can still gossip, you can still travel, you can still read. you can still transition. you can still come out.
young doesn't mean peaked. you're inexperienced in your 20s! you're still learning and practicing! you're developing social skills and muscle memory that will last decades!
there are a million things to do in the world, and they don't vanish overnight because an imaginary number gets too big
