it's still like crazy to me that jiang yanli and wen qing never actually speak to each other. they are in the same room at the same time, in a scene that suggests wen qing has been tending to her, and jiang yanli still only speaks Of Her even though she's right there. and wen qing just goes :) help

every time i see a screenshot of two women from the untamed on screen together they are a) never speaking to each other and b) facing away from each other completely with their eyes cast to the ground. like why do they look like they're in a hostage situation lmao

Sweating reading this book wondering if Kris kept all the canon deaths. I half hope not and half hope yes lmao I’ll cry but like if she didn’t I feel like it would compromise the themes

nic ✨ @comefeedtherainn.bsky.social · 1d

Truly can’t imagine the stress of my debut being a gatsby retelling, I’d be shitting lmao Kris is stronger than me

bioshock fic is becoming about cult mentality and the balance between collectivism and individualism yeah a likely thing for it to be doing

why is adonis down by hephaestus...in what world

nic ✨ @comefeedtherainn.bsky.social · 2d

realizing that the fanmade map of rapture i've been using this whole time has adonis luxury resort in the complete wrong place and struggling not to crash out bc the rest of it might ALSO BE INACCURATE...it's fine it's fine it's literally fine

her har//ding honestly sounds like she has over-corrected on her poor inflection and now does so much inflection she sounds like an after school special

this has been dragon age hour with nic

this compared to someone with obvious suicidal tendencies like davrin is really interesting. like davrin is the perfect example of someone who was manipulated/taken advantage of by the wardens. his specific personality could be the poster child of the org tbh lol a reckless guy who wants to be dead

nic ✨ @comefeedtherainn.bsky.social · 3d

i always thought the fact that he warden canonically searches for a cure for the taint is sooo interesting bc it speaks to some level of rejection of the martyrdom that is so inherent to being a warden. like surely there is a better way than poisoning ppl, killing most of them, to deal w darkspawn

theron's relationship with being a warden/the wardens as an organization is very like. im sorry this happened to all of us and many of us weren't given a choice. he feels little pride in the idea of like. just being a machine to kill darkspawn and one day die doing it. voluntarily

nic ✨ @comefeedtherainn.bsky.social · 3d

my vision is that my warden has been extremely polarizing bc he's not only an elf in a high position who is also looking for a cure for the taint, he's now out here like "first warden. there is a blight." and when the first warden is like no there isnt. theron just starts telling ppl directly lmfao

theron like fight me dog i might be 46 but you are older and your mustache is stupid. my husband will assassinate you and make it look like an accident and also really embarrassing

really enjoying imagining how my warden is doing 23 years out from origins. despite my track record with previous military-esque characters i do think he is still warden-commander and i think he is a huge pain the ass. he and the first warden are sworn enemies but like in an office rivalry way

the evanuris deigning to learn common while trapped in the fade is really funny. is it funnier if they're too proud to bother or if they do it while throwing up in their mouths so they can bamboozle more people
