a writing competition i was going to participate in again this year has announced that they now allow AI generated content to be submitted
their reasoning being that "we couldn't ban it even if we wanted to, every writer already uses it anyway"
"Every writer"?
come on
al-an has the personality of sheldon cooper
I keep coming back to this FUCKING FANART!!!! Like you are so fucking real for this dude I’m absolutely bewitched I love the idea of Astarion healing and slowly getting healthier as the game progresses I’m just GHRBBRHRHHBBRHRHGGRGRRRRHGRRG
Doodle of Astarion going from starved and newly freed to eating better and getting chubbier
Controversial, but i'm six-pack hater. Out of romanceable male companions only Wyll should be allowed to have defined abs. Thank you for coming to my ted talk
[pspsps i yapped about it here]
A removed conversation between Robin and AL-AN that remains in the games audio files.
It’s a very interesting interaction, but I do see why they opted to leave it out. Though it is nice to see a longer conversation between them. Especially one where they talk out their reasonings for differing views, and one where Robin ends up expressing empathy for AL-AN.
Transcript under the cut
AL-AN: Thank you for undertaking the quest for an alternative storage medium.
Robin: I would really love it if you could stop referring to me as a storage medium.
A: Not you. Your body.
R: My body is a significant part of who I am and how I experience life.
A: It is different for us.
R: Clearly. Or you wouldn’t have been hanging out in that sanctuary waiting to hitch a ride with me.
R: How did you get in there anyway?
A: We came here in search of a cure for the Kharaa bacterium.
R: What? Thousands of years ago?
A: I do not experience time as you do, but yes, that is technically correct.
A: My body was infected before a vaccine could be developed. I uploaded my consciousness to the sanctuary for storage.
R: What happened to the others?
A: Some left, others perished. Over time my connection to them grew weaker… I cannot sense them now.
R: AL-AN… I—
[missing piece of dialogue]
R: Yes okay, but— what I was going to say was… I’m sorry.
A: …Why? You have done nothing wrong.
R: Not sorry like an apology. Sorry like I feel empathy.
A: Are all your human languages so… confusing?
R: All the ones I know are.
so i got volume 30 of aoex and im reminded how much i fucking love Lewin "WHAT THE FUCK IS A KILOMETER💥🦅‼️‼️" Light because honestly hes the most American american ive ever seen in anime and i would not trust him to be within 100 washing machines of a school (because he would actively try traumatizing the kids)
i got project hail mary yesterday so everybody better be ready for YAPPING!!!!!!!!
I had a dream like a month ago where a super skinny, black figure with four eyes that was taller than my doorway was standing slightly hunched over in front of said doorway. In response, dream me asked him if he wanted to sleep in my bed. He then came to my bed, climbed the ladder... and proceeded to cuddle me. So I guess it works sometimes?
question: what happens when monsterfuckers try to seduce their sleep paralysis demon? does that ever work out for yall?

If you see this you are OBLIGATED to reblog w/ the song currently stuck in your head :)
your days are numbered and i cant fucking count
I'm still obsessed with the idea that Vellioth and Astarion look eerily similar and that's why Cazador is more obsessed with Astarion than the other spawn.
THIS IS FOR ALL MY DELULU BABYS AND GRILLS
