Oh I realized a thing about the Paul/Feyd-Rautha fight. So usually if you have a big fight scene, but especially if you do something like have a character get injured in a way that would definitely be fatal if they weren't cursed with inescapable Main Character Energy, you follow up the fight scene with some moment of comfort or relief or something, which serves to release the tension for the audience and let them know whew, that was scary, but it's okay now. Your character is hurt but they're gonna survive. (Or alternately, if they're dying heroically, it was worth it and what the narrative demanded.)
But here there's nothing. Paul is surrounded by devoted followers; his mother; his lover; one of his oldest teachers and a loyal servant of House Atreides. No one steps forward to offer a shoulder to lean on or help him to his feet. He's left them all behind. He's not a person who got hurt in a fight anymore; he's a myth that people shrink back from. So he pulls the knife out by himself. He stands up by himself. Other than the emperor very begrudgingly touching his hand to kiss the ring, I don't think anyone touches him at all for the rest of the movie. He's completely alone. They never release that tension, because Paul's alive but it is very much not going to be okay.

Flemeth - literal Mythal, Elvish God - calls Merrill 'so young and bright' the moment she meets her. Like. I just wanna point that out. Flemeth who is known for a) picking out the people who will change the course of the future and b) being a bit of a bitch, immediately compliments Merrill and calls her 'bright'. Like maybe half the fandom can't see how bright Merrill shines, but Flemeth can.

I think at some point in time we need to sit down and start explaining to artist who want to make a career out of art that there are FAR more options than just "living off of commissions" and "posting my art online and praying I get paid for it".

shipping Varric and Cassandra in the ending where she become the Divine is so fucking funny, let's be honest like
Varric returning to Kirkwall after Inquisition: "Hey everyone, I'm back!"
Aveline or someone: "Varric! You've been gone for literal years, what happened!?"
Varric: "Eh, nothing much. Just got kidnapped by this pissed off 30-something lady and dragged all over the world to a bunch of fights and, like, political machinations, etc. Fighting an undead priest bent on world domination, that kind of stuff"
Them: "...oh my God!"
Varric: "Nah, it's fine actually. We developed this kind of begrudging bantery relationship that developed into something deeper, and now I write erotica for her, which she goes totally feral over. Just absolutely loves the stuff."
Them: "Oh, uh, okay. That's cool, I guess... And who is she?"
Varric: "The pope."

Anora in a fit inspired by Alistair in the Comics.
So, I figure that of you have a world state with Anora as Queen Alistair goes to save Maric anyway, but, let's just imagine that instead, it is Anora that goes on these adventures, I've been pondering how all the events would play out differently
I've only read silent grove so far, but my imagination is going wild with this one yall
**spoliers**
Would she kill Yavanna??
Also, the assault on the prison and crow headquarters would probably play out differently since Anora is more of a Rogue in my mind.
Also, the whole dragon blood thing! I've developed a theory that Anora could be descended from Aldenon (aka Ferelden merlin) It would tie nicely with the theirins being descended from Calenhad.
He was from the Frostbacks, so I imagine the whole reaver dragon blood drinking thing was a lot more common in 'pagan' Ferelden tradition, which Aldenon was. He was at odds with Calenhad on matters of faith.
I don't think Calenhad himself ever drank dragon blood, as he held the faith of Andraste.
By this logic, a lot of the old Ferelden families would carry the blood. But Loghain wasn't from an old family, but then again, Aldenon dissapleared.
And dragon age has this thing of fate bringing characters together. So it was fate that brought Loghain and Maric together, and the chances of there being a source for the dragon blood is higher if both of them have the dragon blood. Then, if it was prophesized that Loghain and Maric s children would be bear children together, that could have been a plot to get a solid line of Dragon Blood.
