Some ability that the mind, the heart, the soul are in control of what is real, and that if you do not speak it, it will not be. But some things are, regardless if you are afraid to name them.

Okay but like Exandria Unlimited: Calamity episode 2 specifically is really giving religious trauma vibes towards the end lmao

And again I lay here awake at 2 am, dreading of the sun rising, and secretly hoping, although deadly afraid, I will not wake this time.

People are endlessly charming when you actually get to know and appreciate them. Like, people are just wandering about and they have favourite colours that make them so happy, and some people will specifically look for products or food or knickknacks in their favourite colour and so many people wear that colour and feel instantly more confident??? 😭😭😭
There are so many tiny details that I think when you learn to notice them, it makes each person so beautiful and charming and enchanting just because they exist

So, as requested, here's that same compilation again, but in German, for your hearing pleasure, but be warned, you might want to prepare yourself for a mild disappointment. 😂 No but I'm actually in tears right now, because half of these don't even sound like he'S BEING SARCASTIC?? LMAOOO
Look, I've talked about this so many times now, but I told you guys German Solas sounds like the most innocent little bean, so when he's making all these super snide remarks, it doesn't hit even remotely as hard as in English. 😂😂😂 Do you now understand what I mean when I tell you that German Solas feels like an entirely different character? lmaoo
A few things as a side note
The part where he tells Dorian "The technique is not Tevinter, it is Elven. But do go on about the wonders of Tevinter magic" I'm cRYING, he sounds GENUINELY excited and curious to hear more about it LMAO
You can tell he's trying SO HARD to sound as sinister as possible in that line about Bull in Trespasser. lmaoo
I had to take out the line where he goes "Please speak up! I cannot hear you over your outfit!" to Dorian, because that joke was sadly completely lost in translation. In the German version, he simply says "Please speak up! I can barely hear you over all the noise!"
"May you learn" is a perfect example for how German can take an effective little line and turn it into a whole monologue. lol There's a reason why the German party banter compilation is like a whole hour longer than the English one.

zerxus’ passionate speech about his husband’s son, “I have a son that’s not of my blood but that is my son. I met evandrin when he was just an infant, and I held that boy in my arms and I fell in love with him. I am his father.” has,,, fundamentally changed me as a person

Wild, horrifying, action packed Dracula Daily email today! And made better by editorial choices in my opinion. I don’t recall what order these entries are presented in in the original book (I have a copy, I could check, but it’s in another room and I’m on the couch so), but it would be easy as the DD editor to justify giving us the same set of entries but in a different order. Lucy’s diary entries could’ve been presented back to back but they weren’t. Mina’s letter could’ve been presented earlier in the email rather than at the end, as she was likely writing earlier in the day than Lucy, who wrote in the evening/middle of the night. But I like this order, for two reasons.
1: Going from Seward rejoicing that he can have a much needed good night’s sleep because Van Helsing did not request his help tonight, to the bitter shock that his help was requested but he didn’t know until too late, seeing the telegram after Seward’s entry hits harder than I think it would if we’d have seen it first.
2: Similarly with Mina’s letter, the fact that it comes as the last entry today makes it all the more painful to read. I do think that if today’s email was truly presented chronologically, Mina’s letter would likely come before Lucy’s entries, or at least before her second one. But seeing Mina ask about Lucy’s mother, immediately after watching the woman die, hurts more than it would have had we read Mina’s letter first.
I guess my point here is to say thanks to the editor. I don’t know if these choices were made intentionally or not, but different choices could’ve been made and I think today’s email would’ve been less effective horror if it had been presented differently.

Potential Exandria Unlimited: Calamity episode 2 spoilers:
Okay so I'm almost finished the second episode: bitterness and dread. And the comments are so funny! Especially the ones about Brennan as Asmodeus, because I agree, he's making some points and I'm almost ashamed to admit that I literally believe everything he is saying even tho I'm pretty sure I'm being duped
