I think the thing that just continues to astound me about ttrpgs is the fact that people who meet up and are friends outside of the game just... refuse to try anything other than 5e? I've seen so many stories about DMs asking players to try a new system, and they just refuse.

Why? I mean if you come into the night like fully expecting to play 5e but instead they throw something new at you, I get that being frustrating. But I'm talking about DMs asking ahead of time for something new and being refused.

Hello???? These are your friends, you're like 99% going to have a good time even if all you guys can manage is rolling up characters. And 9 out of 10 times its another d20 system so the rules really are not that different.

We started out with 5e, played a full 1-20 campaign and did lots of oneshots. And you know what we all said when our DM, the guy who helped bring the world to life who does the most WORK, asked us to try a new system? We said, "Absolutely dude!"

And ya know what? We had fun! We made mistakes, we had to recheck rules, but we had fun! In fact, it was like playing for the first time again! That exact same sense of wonder and fun!

And guess what? We liked it more than 5e! Its our new standard go to system! We try out other systems occasionally too! And if we had hated it and the other ones? Well, 5e is still right there and we could go back at any time!

Anyway, all this to say, try something new. I mean ideally I want you to try something outside of DnD editions, but honestly just try anything outside of 5e. I promise, if you hate it 5e will still exist.

#sometimes i reqd those stories and inwonder if you guys are friends at all #i work i get it this is one of the few nights you have to relax #but if youre with friends youre goinf to have a good time #you guys meeting irl have an advantage!#face to face meetings are so fun!#we have to play online because weve all dispersed since college #but we still try new things!#idk this is just something thats always bothered me when i read stories of burnout #especially dm burnout #if the guy making the story and the game wants to try something new just try it #at worst you guys get to razz on a bad system #at best you discover something new that you love #val rambles #'i cant afford books'#hey i get ya dude #wizards is one of the worst when it comes to books needed and prices #and there was a website that had nearly every system uploaded for you ro download #but someone got angry hecause they font understand how piracy works again #and the site got taken down #qnyway if you cant afford it i get it

hey guys psst hey guys psst hey guys psst hey guys psst

and yes it's a public one, not a patreon exclusive. it'll be posted either tomorrow if i get the art done in time or if not then it'll be the wednesday after. but i'm going to try my best to get the art done so it's up tomorrow.

(also the gender tags don't reflect the genitalia of the listener, it just changes the pet names to 'good boy' or 'good girl' or neither. no specific genitals mentioned on any of them. we t4trans-inclusive content over here.)

EDIT: it's done! check the most recent posts on my blog or do a lil search on my blog for astarion or look my youtube! there's also a direct link in the reblogs and replies to this post!

#a friends been talking about this game for ages and ive been getting astarion tiktoks on my fyp for a while but i was like nah he seems like #hes probs a villian and like pretty voice and face and all but im not gonna get into the game for him #and then yesterday i saw pretty art. thought okay well more than one person has asked me to voice him now i guess i'll see.#didnt know he was going to be an angsty boy. i love him . i protecc him. fuck cazador.#so in less than 24 hours of meeting him i have recorded an audio as him there you go.#hes fun to voice what can i say. makes me feel all confident talking like that.#astarion #baldur's gate 3 #astarion x reader #imagines #imagine #x reader #baldurs gate 3

I did something silly….. I made QL guess who!

About a year and a half ago I had the idea for a custom ql guess who game but I had no one to play it with so I just put it to the side until I (hopefully) would. Fortunately that day came this weekend when @pondphuwin and I got to play a few rounds (they beat me 4:5 actually lmao)!

Some of the questions we asked were stuff like “is it from gmmtv,” “does your show have a branded pair,” “is there a love triangle,” “is there a debate over whether your show is a bl or not,” and more personal ones like “am I crazy over one of the main actors,” “do we have beef with the way this bl went,” “did we watch this live together,” and so on. Rlly fun stuff!

Since this is a custom guess who I had to make all the pieces manually. At first it seems fine and easy bc there’s already official posters right? But the difficulty is that almost every poster is a different size. So I figured out how to get the proper guess who face piece measurements and manually resized each poster to fit, with a slight gradient in the background where the remaining space isn’t covered by the poster. You can see those gradient bars on the top and bottom in the closeup of the last twilight piece, for example. Also it’s just really funny to hold mini posters of qls lmao (using my hand as a reference)

There’s 190 ql poster pieces in total (based on approx. how many I’d seen as of the time of printing) (yes I will add more as time goes on) and they were all put on one big google doc that covered about 10 pages and looked like this!

After I had them all set I printed them out on cardstock so they were thicker & more sturdy and then I did a lot of cutting. And since both players need the same posters I had to cut it all twice

Are there easier ways to do this? Maybe. I’m not sure. Honestly I just did whatever like this is my own gay little art project lol

Once I had them all cut and held them in my hand I felt quite proud of my work and now that I’ve actually played it I really do

Here’s just like a pic I took when we were playing a round. Since there were so many, after every round we took out the two qls we just selected and replaced them with new ones and we never ran out lmao. It took quite a bit of effort but it was totally worth it hehe

#next time I wanna do it with actors hehe #might get working on that later #but yeah this is so silly and fun and idk fellow ql watchers u might appreciate skdjdjd #it was fun to choose which posters to use too #the only thing I didn’t have time for was the bigger face cards & designing the backs but I will do those too later lol #b.txt #idk what to tag this as #I’m just gonna tag some of the qls u can see in the photos ig lol #it’s relevant…..#last twilight #bad buddy #utsukushii kare #bed friend #pit babe #me when I had two shows open left and one of them was pit babe: does ur show have omegaverse… KDJSJDJ #cooking crush #until we meet again #ok I rlly don’t kno what 2 tag this as so I’ll leave it here lol

Hey I have a question but are you the original creator for mafia mob au or is someone else cause I think I stumble in a TikTok creater and they made a mafia wally au. Both arts are amazing but I was just curious to know.

I think I know who you may be talking about! There is basically two “mafia” aus lol, theirs and mine- our aus are completely separate from each other and from what I know, have no affiliation with each other whatsoever besides coincidence of universe

#Theirs is the “Mafia au” while mine is the “Mob au”#Another reason why I don’t really call mine the “Mafia” au is due to a mix of things I add to my stuff #(Cult like behaviors- psychological warfare- abdominal nightmaric horrors- etc etc JDHDD)#I think they are more focused on building Wally-?#I focus a lot more on basically everyone else LMAOOO #I probably should draw mob Wally more-#He is the face of it all smhh and his hair is fun to draw #I like making it as a “not what meets the eye” kinda au #Like oh you think it’s just this but it’s so much more deeper and fugged up JDHDHHD #Nobody remembers anything and even if they try there is a force stopping them #Is it psychological? Is it from a giant suspicious house god father? Is it the drinks? Who knows!#Well we kinda ish know but still lmAOOO #Wait that reminds me #I need to make a list of everyone’s “usual” drink is at the bar-

i KNOW i said i'd draw putt putt branch but i cant control the vibe and the vibe rn is feral clay

he vaguely remembers floyd. vaguely. he knows floyd was...there. at some point when his mind was whole. but he cant see where he'd be. a lot of his past memories were pushed away to make room for survival instinct, so his memories mostly consist of good ones with (Sp)Bruce and the night he left, the argument with JD mostly

floyd's kinda be pushed to the back of his mind, so its like meeting someone new. Clay smells death on him. Decay. But he stands and talks like a living creature.

Floyd confuses Clay. He calls him Pink. He'll remember his name eventually.

#masky says #trolls dreamworks #feral putt putts au #putt putt trolls #trolls clay #trolls floyd #finally doodled floyd! :D idk i like his gay lil vibe #hes so twinkish its ridiculous #i wanna put him under a microscope #clay's very curious about floyd he lingers around him a lot #his reactions and existence confuses him...he smells like death but hes living. baffles his mind #meanwhile floyd's trying to handle this being his big brother now. the same big brother who read to him every night #who taught him math and basic science. the things he needed to know. who taught him fun facts.#is now an animal and knows less then he does. its like a nightmare. its terrifying to see someone you love reduced to nothing #hes pushy on clay's recovery i think. he wants him to get better. makes him push himself too far #but he just wants normalcy again. he wants clay back to himself so he can feel normal #he wants to meet his REAL big brother not this monster who has his face #meanwhile clay's just watching. learning. trying to figure him out. put faces to memories #its hard when his instinct for when things get too hard is to retreat into viva #bury his face in her shoulder hide in her pelt he just shields himself from the world with viva #and she lets him she protects him always and forever they're each others half to a whole #did yall know im obsessed with my own au? :D

DEUCE TRIED TO BEAT ACE WITH A LARGE STICK WHEN THEY MET????????????????

oh my god i get to tell you this i'm so happy. this is going to get long because i just. adore how fucking cringefail deuce is at the start of the novel. the manga is great but it's so important to me how badly this man can fuck up within 10 minutes of meeting a stranger. his ass does NOT know how to keep his foot out of his mouth

going behind a read more bc long and spoiler filled (specifically heavy spoilers (essentially an abridged play-by-play of the first chapter) for Ace's Story book 1 and a little bit of the first chapter of the Episode A manga adaption)

if you don't want spoilers but are curious uhhhh basically deuce got a lil hangry ^-^ thats all ^-^

so, in the manga adaption, deuce pretty immediately warms up to ace, yeah?

yeah. deuce is pretty fuckin easy in the manga. meanwhile, in the novel, when ace immediately asks for help...

(if it's unclear, all first person is referring to deuce, the book is written from his POV)

in fact, deuce manages to fail basically every speech check in the first conversation they have together. i'm not kidding look at how fucking bad he is at this.

my man falls ass first into a rant to a guy he just met and manages to find himself saying 'wow why don't you go cry to your mom and leave me alone to be depressed' to a man who's mom literally died in childbirth. less than 5 minutes after meeting the guy. and the best part? HE KEEPS GOING.

he's gotta stop there, right? surely? surely even a man who's been stranded on an island alone for 3 days can tell when he's got his foot so wedged in his mouth he's practically deepthroating it? NOPE!

at this point, you'd think there's literally nothing worse that he can say. you would be so, so wrong.

MY MAN. MY GUY. i want to hammer in the fact that deuce managed to fuck up a conversation this badly with a man he's literally never met within like, 15 minutes at most. deuce then proceeds to recover from this utter failure at conversation by just. walking away into the woods and proceeding to continue slowly starving to death for several days whilst avoiding ace. he also eats ants on at least one occasion. this isn't really relevant to the hitting ace with a stick thing but it's important to me that you know that. he also despite all of this has this gayass moment

again, not relevant, but important to me that you know he saw ace failing to sail on the worst raft you've ever seen and still called him 'dashing'. now, at this point, deuce has been without food and with only minimal water for days- probably close to a week, though it's a bit ambiguous. and my guy, brilliantly, thinks to himself 'well. ace doesn't look like he's starving to death. what if he has food?' and sneaks behind ace, following him until he sees ace with a huge fruit (the mera mera no mi).

all of this... deuce sneaking up on ace planning to fight him for the fruit, kill him if he needs to, because he's the son of roger... and you know what ace fucking does??? you wanna know what this giant depressed puppy of a man fucking says to a guy who was abt to bash his brains out??

"nice stick!" and deuce just fucking. starts sobbing on the spot out of guilt while they argue both trying to get the other to eat the fruit. they are. so stupid and i love them so much.

so yeah. deuce's first ever interaction with ace is loudly announcing that he'd want to kill himself if he was the son of roger, and his SECOND interaction is him attempting to kill ace with a stick because he's hangry. i love him so much he's so fucking shit.

tldr you're not you when you're hungry and also you should all read the ace novels. because of this and also because ace and deuce get cockblocked on a gay ferris wheel ride by a marine just deciding to jump in the gondola with them and sit there menacingly until ace breaks the door and just jumps out to escape her monologuing abt her traumatic backstory

#this got away from the original question a bit but i don't think anyone will mind #i say this every time it comes up but god i need to finish the novels #it also drops some hints to the meaning of ace's misspelled tattoo and i desperately need to see if it says more on it #talking #one piece #answers #dontmineit #portgas d ace #masked deuce #deuce one piece #i find it so funny the dichotomy between their meeting in the manga vs novel #let me tell you i was fucking losing it when i read it #i love the manga but i do feel like it goes VERY hard on the depressed/self destructive angle #while the novel feels less in-your-face abt it which feels more fitting #manga is like he's always brooding and depressed meanwhile novel feels more like a friendly guy with severe baggage below the surface #tho the manga does fascinate me wrt his relationship to his crew #because the manga (to me at least) paints ace as a beloved captain #but arguably not a very good one #and i don't think it even does that on purpose #but it's fun to roll that thought around my head #anyways

Btw I have no idea if it’s known about in the wider fandom, but there’s a sizable amount of riddler-centric fics on AO3 where he adopts Steph after he kills/otherwise maims her father. There isn’t a point to this I just thought you all should know about it

#spook speaks #riddler fans said give this neurotic little man a child NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!#idk I just think they’re so fun to see #we should do that with other rogues too tbh. Two-face takes in baby Jason after killing his dad because he didn’t know he had a son #and Jason tries to maul him every step of the way #who else lemme think. uhh #Harley taking in baby dickiebird as a favor to her good pal Bruce from medical school #(she never ends up as Harley Quinn but probably ends up dating Poison Ivy regardless)#literally Any rogue accidentally acquiring Tim and trying to hand him off because he’s deranged #Tim still ends up a Robin btw and rocks up to beat his rogue parent’s ass on the regular #(they are Very proud)#Duke meeting Ivy during We Are Robin and getting support from her in exchange for a little help committing ecoterrorism #because Harley thinks he’s got spunk and Bud and Lou seem to like him too #idk. consider it

Rita being caught with Moffun by other team members not named Himeno. She promptly shoots a death glare that says “tell or you’re in the snowman”

I'll do you one better: Yanma walks into their office during "Moffun and Me" and forgot that Rita has to open the door after knocking 🤣

He's learned to just never go to Rita's office after that and stop Gira from doing so to avoid the same fate.

Will Dipper always have almost no magic of his own, even after being reincarnated? He obviously has a talent for life magic but he can’t really train to get better at it, because he’s using Bill’s magic for it (and we know the latter hates it lol). I just don’t want my guy to be sad and miserable forever🥺 He deserves to become a cool and independent magician! And prove his bullies wrong once and for all!

A reincarnation of Dipper could definitely have more magic of his own! And as clever as he is, there's a bright future ahead of him. Perhaps even one where he's excellent at life magic and healing, and getting a little cocky about his own talents.

Bill, of course, upsets all the plans he had for his life. Again.

The good news is that it's a life where Dipper could use more life magic. Theoretically. The problem there is going to be hashing out how he can use it once they're bonded again.

#answers #It'd be pretty fun to see a Dipper who's managed to get a few neat achievements under his belt magically. Perhaps even... smug about it?#Suddenly faced with a guy who knows even more than him by miles #A Dipper with ideas about how to break this 'bond' and cast Bill out. Only to get increasingly stressed out as all of his efforts fail #I mean c'mon. It's Dipper. The big walls of 'I'm Great' he built were only to protect the anxiety-ridden core of himself #Bill is amused. You put up a pretty great fight kid!! You mighta made a dent if this thing didn't have centuries of weight behind it #Even then it's pretty rock-solid construction; bet you'd *hate* to meet the guy who forged it #Though in all honesty. Dipper wasn't trying *quite* as hard as he could have to break the thing #Something kept holding him back #Alternately: Healer/Doctor Dipper who's now Very Annoyed that Bill's getting in the way of his chosen practice #So what if it makes Bill sick? Screw him. If they're stuck together then what's the magical equivalent of separate bank accounts #No way he's giving up his awesome talent. He's great at it. It helps people. Bill can go kick rocks #Alternate of the alternate: Dipper insisting *Bill* learn a few life tricks even if it's uncomfortable for him #Goading him into it by declaring that well. His knowledge isn't *really* infinite without *That* area of magic. Is it.#Good job Dipper! You truly know how to needle your husband into doing stuff he normally wouldn't no matter the lifetime #Probably comes in handy when Dipper gets Very Hurt that lifetime! Bill'd rather stumble off to be sick in the bushes than lose him again
