okay tumblr’s exclusion from the twitter social media ban list is hilarious but genuinely we do not belong on there. if a real human person asks “where can i find you on social media” and your choice is a swift death or revealing your tumblr, most of us would simply expire. half of y’all change urls every week like you’re in witness protection. just imagine for one second attaching your wholeass government name to your latest two am clownposting and tell me that didn’t send a cold chill down your spine. the only place i ever want to see the words “connect with me on tumblr!” is on the ao3 profile of an author i’m actively stalking. anyone in the world can follow me except anyone i personally know. antisocial media.
Just a sketch before I sleep! Took this opportunity to study Julian Kostov's face and I think I'm getting the hang of it 👌

Am I highkey seeing Makarov as another Vampire in Halloween AU? 👀 Imagine Makarov being a much stronger vampire than Price because he's been consuming human blood non-stop without remorse. And now in order to defeat Mak, Price has to break his oath and start consuming human blood again 👁️👁️.
Here's some timelapse and hope you love it! *(੭*ˊᵕˋ)੭*ଘ
currently writing a fanfic where thalia reflects on taking zoe's place as lieutenant. and the zoe and thalia parallels in the original series are so strong. i mean. both of their deaths were caused by their fathers. both of their deaths end with them staring up at the sky. both of their deaths lead to them being a symbol of sacrifice and heroism. both of them joined the hunt because they lost faith in a boy they cared for. both of them were trapped between a rock and a hard place. how am i just now realizing this?
I know we're all wild for Astarion/Durge cause yeah the dialogue for them redeeming themselves and saving each other at the same time is dramatic, it's beautifully written, it's cinema but playing Gale/Durge has been absolutely hysterical, I have to say.
First of all? I've rolled an absolute hot streak of constant Nat 20s the whole romance route?? Which great, when I'm fighting for my life that's def where I want the Nat 20s going, but I am choosing to interpret it as Gale's type is Serial Killer
And all his lines? About how 'I love your musk', 'love your muscles', immediately pulling you aside after you slaughtered something to say he's read a book about kinks and he REALLY understands it now? Like completely unhinged, he was perfectly cordial with me first playthrough, the Durge playthrough I think I've been at 'Exceptional' approval rating from start of Act 1.
Every single instance he has pulled me aside, my character has been head to toe covered in blood.
Frankly I think he needs to be bullied more in camp, there needs to be a stern and dissapointed "Gale!" warning added to the other companions diologue for when he's just staring at you after you murdered something
Sometimes I get the feeling that people in this fandom don’t understand the meaning of an oath.
The Asoiaf world may be fantasy, but it is still based on real-life medieval setting.
In European medieval times, the values of the Church were held in high regard, and a person’s word actually meant something. When someone made a promise/an oath, especially a noble, it was expected of that person to honor it. Failure to do so resulted in dire consequences.
It’s not like it is now in modern 21st century, when everyone makes promises they end up breaking eventually and it’s like *shrug* “oh well, too bad” and no consequences follow.
So, when the Lords of the Realm swore oaths to uphold the ascension of Rhaenyra Targaryen on the Iron Throne, they were not at all “stale” or “meaningless”, as Otto Hightower tries to argue (that’s modern mentality and kind of poor writing on the part of the showrunners). It’s a pledge made in the name of a House.
And just because some of the Lords who swore those oaths died, that doesn’t mean that those oaths died with them (as the Lannisters, who have no honor whatsoever, try to argue). The oaths were made on behalf of Houses, not individuals, and therefore, the Houses as a whole were expected to respect them.
The reason Rhaenyra Targaryen had most of the Realm on her side is because the majority of Westerosi Houses understand the meaning of an oath. They also acknowledge that with the absence of an actual succession law, Rhaenyra Targaryen is the rightful Queen of the Seven Kingdoms.
{--@starsburned and I were talking about their canon-divergent AU Dazai who decided to fake his own death to leave the ADA and go back to the Port Mafia. Naturally, Ranpo and Fukuzawa aren't convinced at all that Dazai is actually dead and Fukuzawa has to get into a Dad Fight with Mori over custody of one of their kids (again). And given the nature of their Dazai and my Chuuya, who can't stop beating each other up every week... we couldn't help talking about this crack scenario.--}
