".......Phoebus, shoot Malik."

Without a second thought, Phoebus picks up his flintlock and shoots Malik.

I did the majority of my pc build today but I can’t even use it because the stupid gpu doesn’t come until this weekend. being dramatic and laying on the floor about it

I actually enjoy him a normal amount.

i would be sorry about my activity here being so slow but...i'm not? i'm mostly playing rdo a lot and loving it and i'm way past apologising for activity or lack thereof (a version of my pc IS incoming tho her name's mairéad and i love her so much)

so ive been playing with the rockstar editor in gta, and it’s been quite fun

New girly dropped

Ah yes, made a new character, viking inspired Norwegian Ivar Jørgensson.

Not exactly a new character, just changed my old character’s looks so he’s already rank 100+.

hi there :3 as a fellow sean stan i'd like to recommend a song that (personally) reminds me a lot of him! the name is i will be back someday by lord huronヾ(•ω•`)o

its kinda popular tho, so im sending this ask more to finally get this off my system since i never saw anyone comment on how much this fits sean(or maybe im just so obsessed w him that im making connections where they dont exist, but heyy)😭😭

Hi darling anon (i am SO SORRY I couldn't get to this sooner but I am here now!!!)

I agree with you BIG TIME about this song fitting Sean!! Lord Huron is one of those bands I got introduced to through a friend a couple years ago, and while I often forget abt them when making my playlists, I very much enjoy their music GREATLY, and finding songs which fits Sean is ALWAYS a joy so you can bet this one is on my Sean playlist now!!

I mean, obviously the song hits for Sean's sense of homesickness and love for where he's from, but ALSO the wistfulness and nostalgia of the song paired with the lyrics really makes me think of his connections to the gang & his propensity of getting lost. He's lost in RDO but he will be back, he gets caught by Ike Skelding but he will be back, and he will find the people he'll always return to!!! There's also a shippy on-off take - he will always return to his partner, even when they tell him not to return!!

OBSESSED w this one anon, thank u for the recommendation!!!!

Sometimes it makes me really sad that my RDO character has found more happiness than me lmfao. Also I tried to make them match for like the billionth time (last pic), actually kinda like this one tho ngl

hello-hello, I have come to shamelessly speak of my favourite modded follower... disclaimer for potentially bad taste 😅

I'm not sure why but I have quite a liking for followers built off of the vanilla system (i.e. no custom voice, complex ai and so on). maybe it's because I can flesh them out further the way I wish, similar to actual vanilla npc's. doubly-so since the majority of them don't have much of a backstory in their nexus pages...

anyway, about the specific guy I'm obsessed with... his name is Talerion, and he is a Thalmor. but wait! before you judge me, he is quite interesting! to my knowledge he's the only vanilla-style modded follower who uses the Altmer voice (so pretty...), with follower functionality thanks to RDO. also, he has a rather unconventional fighting style for an Altmer, forgoing magic in favour of dual wielding daggers (daedric ones, to boot! personally I tweak it so it's something less OP)

I am positively obsessed with him and he is practically my oc at this point with all of the backstory/lore I have made up for him. he will a quite important character in my planned fanfic, as an ally (and maybe more) of one of the main characters. also, I've drawn him quite a bit (examples here and here) and plan to make a replacer that makes his in-game look closer to how I draw him. (I probably cannot post it publicly tho bc of permission issues, mod author has not been active in a long time)

100% understand if he ain't your cup of tea but I consider him my-not-mine specialest little guy <3

Oh cool! I had heard of him, but I didn't realize he used a vanilla voice. I love your art! his ears poking out his hood 😭

I love when you can build on characters like that though, making your own stories about your special little guys is a cornerstone of the Elder Scrolls!!

Saw someone else do it and I think I've done this before too, but the list has grown since then a bit so here's my current lineup of read dead wips that I'm working on!! :D Minus the stuff that's already posted on AO3 cuz I see no point in doing a synopsis for things that have left my google drive and you can go and read ahah.

Turned out loooooong so lookie under the cut if you're interested in knowing what I'm up to.

Morston Soulmate AU (title tba, multichapter, around 20-30k when finished) - An AU where you can feel all the injuries your soulmate gets, both minor and major ones. There's no soul marks, seeing your soulmate get hurt and connecting the dots is the only way to find out. Has a lot of time skips and focuses more on feelings than events, but starts out pre-canon when John almost gets lynched and works its way towards the end of the canon story. Chapters alternate between Arthur's and John's POV. Canon compliant :)

RDR2 "Modern AU" (title tba, multichapter, long as shit) - I only call it a modern AU for the sake of simplicity... I'm not sure if it counts as one. Set in 1999 and focuses on the case of Arthur Matthews -- a 36 year old adoptive son of the infamous criminal defence lawyer Hosea Matthews, who went missing without a trace for six months and then reappeared miles from his hometown, seemingly unharmed, but also... not quite right. Delusional, confused, suffering from some sort of memory impairment. The story is about Arthur struggling to adapt to being back home in a reality that is apparently foreign to him. Outsider's/John's POV, but not really shippy. It can be read as pre-slash, though.

My Self-Indulgent Jesse/Arthur fic (another title tba lol, it's too early to tell but I'm thinking multichapter? A collection of scenes from 1878 to 1899) - This one is for me and me only, though I will eventually post it 😂 Written in second person, like a reader-insert and can be read as one if someone wants to, but I am including Jesse's backstory and feelings that are way too specific to be immersive for anyone but myself... I'm working real hard to write it in a way that portrays growing up queer in that time somewhat realistically, so it's not always pretty, but I do try to keep it not that depressing. Features: Jesse's early-life backstory, the story of the scar, his first Gay Experience, how his brothers died, the ups and downs of his relationship with Arthur, why they eventually broke up for what felt like last time, how he got arrested (altered RDO storyline bit) and how he got back up with the gang. I'm planning to do a rough rewrite/fix-it of the canon story with him in it too, but that's... an "one day" thing ajsddjfk

Morston Omegaverse (title tba, one shot, around 10-15k probably? I can't keep things short, sorry) - Young-ish and freshly presented Alpha John, "Closeted" Omega Arthur. Ngl this one is smutty as hell... but! I think my take on omegaverse is rather fun (very transgendered) and it's porn WITH not without plot so something for everyone there lol. John's POV again + lotsa feelings, misunderstandings and some angst :) Just the way I like it.

Vandermatthews Daemon AU (had a title but ao3 yeeted my draft and I forgot what it was, oops)- I say Vandermatthews, but it's more of a "curious couple, unruly son" genfic than real slashfic 😅 This is supposed to be the beginning a series of oneshots from different characters' POV. This one is maybe a 1/3 done (needs a serious rewrite tho) and written from Hosea's POV. It's about him and Dutch finding and taking in young Arthur -- a very traumatised child who has undergone intercision and therefore lost his daemon. More of a collection of vignettes from that moment to when they take in John than a real coherent fic tho. The next one is going to be John's POV coming of age thing and we'll see where my brain will go from there. I want to do a separate big ass post about this one later because I have Opinions on the gang members' daemons that I need either challenged or validated...

1907!John/Isaac fic (title tba... a two parter, one set in the epilogue and the second is a RDR1 fix-it) - NOW HEAR ME OUT!!!!!! PUT DOWN THE GODDAMN PITCHFORKS FOR A SECOND PLS This is a plot bunny that Refused To Fucking Die. Isaac is obviously an adult in this (22), they have never met before, and the story begins in the months where Abigail and Jack were gone and John worked alone on Pronghorn ranch. It's not so much a romance (despite the slash) but more two people dealing with different types of grief in Very Unhealthy ways, okay. It's supposed to be a bit iffy because of that and the... 12 years of difference between them in this universe. I'm not trying to make this shit uwu or anything. It's also a bit of a daddy issues vent piece for me and I've been working it for MONTHS because I want to write this one right. This is the the fic I redacted in my last WIP showcase, but now decided that... fuck it. Here you go.

(Doubt anyone has made it this far, but if you did ily.. please lemme know what you think? My ask box is open for questions too... I love talking about the stuff I'm working on even if it's not posted yet ❤)

Roger had a brief AMA on his Twitter page prior to leaving for his appearance at the Montreal Comic Con. These are some of the more interesting ones

I still smh at those who ask who would be a good Arthur in a movie. 🤦

He talks, walks and sounds like Arthur because he is Arthur. There is no one else.

I thought the same too. His father would have to be a huge Pos for Arthur to be happy about him not being around anymore.

That is one hell of a research then 😳

Peeps expecting Roger to get his hands dirty on this RDO stuff. Sorry guys, I feel everyone's pain but he's not going to come out swinging at Rockstar when they have practically put him dead center in the map... 🤦

Yep, there it is. If it wasn't for Rockstar, he would still be a "no-name" actor (tho perhaps still every bit as wonderful). So he's not about to throw that away and risk getting blacklisted by Rockstar for speaking bad about them

This is actually a shocker. He's not willing to do a Young Arthur?? 😳😳

IMO this is part of what makes the character work. So I don't want Arthur to live?? Ofc I do. But I believe that Arthur's demise is what cemented him so deep into the gamers' hearts. Arthur living would be great but his death made the character even better

Maude Jedlička, 1891

sounds backwards maybe but i think allowing myself to get fixated on media and hobbies properly and not fight it has been good for my mental health

i will never understand why so many ppl write for and love micah. his character is absolutely disgusting and he isn’t even attractive.

inexplicable

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and I like to think the one thing we can all agree on is that Micah has some shitty qualities and views. Whether or not you find him or any other character physically attractive is completely personal to you.

Something kinda similar to this but also not similar in the slightest is that the majority of ppl I know like cheese but I really do not get the hype around cheese

Like you ever see those videos of people cooking and out of nowhere they dump a CRIMINAL amount of cheese on it?!?! I will never understand that but that’s just my opinion *finger guns*
