Since @same-shit-different-century is probably in the middle of her OotP re-read by now, i'm suddenly remembering my favourite Hermione quote of all times
do you ever think about the fact that sera's adoptive human mother convinced her AS A CHILD that a total stranger hated her because of her race - to protect the woman's own pride, mind you!! it wasn't even true!! racist AND self-absorbed!!!! (which tbqh the venn diagram is a circle) - and the ramifications of sera cutting herself off as soon as she starts to say, "i hated her, and i hated- (myself)" and how ungenerously the fandom interprets her pain and makes it all about their picture perfect elf oc. because i do.
i dont give a fuck abt that stupid french surgeons "research" and his conclusion that marie-angélique memmie le blanc is the only confirmed case of a "savage feral child" in history. like dont you think its suspect that the only feral child case he decided wasnt a hoax was the native american girl who somehow wound up in france?
I have a new child! They just keep happening, HELP-
This is Ginger Sunweaver, my gnome cleric for a Pathfinder campaign I just joined!
She's a happy-go-lucky little gal, whose passions in life are adventure and alcohol. She's a cleric sworn to the service of Cayden Cailean, the "Accidental God", patron of beer, wine, adventure and freedom. Her goals in life are to taste every alcohol in the known world, and to free every imprisoned person/creature/entity she meets.
Her favored weapon is her tankard, which was a gift from the dwarven priest who introduced her to his faith. The runes on it read "Souvenir of Cloudspire". She is more of a healer and support than a fighter, but she will not hesitate to bonk you on the head with her Holy Tankard if you're being a dick.
ok but actually the way he keeps defaulting to expressing concern for her. “oh i didn’t know you were back 😒” -> “be careful”. “once a savage always a savage…. what’s got into you? are you alright?”. trying to keep up some kind of facade. barrier between them. failing badly at it <3
