#and everything is so quiet for a minute

Okay, this is a ramble, but hear me out.
I've never been a Supes girl - the goody two shoes attitude was always off putting for me. My foray into DC was mostly restricted to Christian Bale's Batman and the occasional glimpses of Wonder Woman.
But then I watched Justice League and I was like - oh, the angsty superbat fanfiction potential is strong in this one.
Then I read all the superbat fanfiction I could find, and I started appreciating Superman in a vague, he's good to associate with Batman kind of way.
Today, I finally watched Man of Steel ( I know, I'm late) and oh boy, oh boy. I get it.
Henry Cavill' Superman. He's just a man and he is so much more. The simmering rage, the barely restrained violence writ in every line of his body. The clench of his jaw and the constant spark of defiance and power in his eyes. The way he holds himself with the ease of a man who knows he's the most powerful guy in the room.
And at the heart of it all, he's still a good man. More human than most people he shares the earth with. Ready to lay his life on the line, but he'll be damned if anyone tries to tell him what to do.
I can see injustice happening. All it would take to set this Superman off is one wrong move, and all his carefully maintained control would just snap. A slow smirk, the casual tilt of his neck and a flash of those pure blue eyes would be the last thing this world would see before it all turned red.
#a twist of fate and it would be an entirely different world#the angst potential is endless#he was my friend#hes my greatest enemy#he wants me dead#hes the love of my life#he wants me for his own#the secen in MoS where the rude trucker throws his drink in Superman's face#and everything is so quiet for a minute#and you can see the clench of his fists#my mouth went dry#pretty sure i whimpered#superman#man of steel#clark kent#superbat#batman#bruce wayne#injustice

I was going to have rye maaaybe start to buy into solas' whole johnny silverhand deal a little bit more in the post-weisshaupt talk -- to Progress the Arc tm/set up the beginning softening in that relationship and heighten the effect when it eventually goes. quite another way entirely -- but the sheer spectacular cruelty in hindsight of 'at least you still have varric to talk to' is such that considering where I'm intending to end up with this narratively, the stoic 'not here to make friends you fucker gimme your intel' option is simply irresistible. gotta have that echo rattling around rye's head forever when he decides that you know what? I have had enough of being nice, actually. I do want to go ape shit. someone hold my coat for me please I have some work to do and I don't want to stain it. guess for now the ol' watcher training & instincts are still kicking in enough for them to treat solas like a tricky spirit you should treat with respect and good intentions, but also shouldn't be out there offering little fingers to unless you have a whole arm lying around to spare haha
#dragon age#dragon age: the veilguard#dragon age: the veilguard spoilers#dragon age spoilers#I LOVED weisshaupt as a mission tho. I've seen it through multiple times and still my heart was going so fucking fast haha#also bringing lucanis with you is SO funny and weirdly sweet even tho you miss the 'you call that nice and quiet??' part#(you get neve just swearing instead! a very good substitute hfdskjah sorry neve...)#it really feels like he and rook keep turning to each other as everything escalates exponentially with like...#helpless and numb but deeply companionable shrugs. we are both equally near-existentially baffled by this. but at least#we are near-existentially baffled by this *together*. thanks man. yeah I mean. she IS a cloud. i don't know what else to say here#all we can do is give it a shot right. yeah. yup. good talk dude check in with you in a minute we gotta kill some ghouls#and then the Arcs both lucanis and rye are on with davrin too especially when they're all making peace in the library...#*steeples fingers with narrative glee and excitement* yes yeeess it's all coming together#oc: Ellaryen Ingellvar#I love solas so much. but that comment is straight up so awful. he says it sooo... *smugly*. it's because he's frustrated#at his powerlessness and being denied access to rook's interior life and getting his hooks into them psychologically I realize#which is his best and only path back to agency at this point#but it's such an ugly instinct to drop something like that in there because it makes YOU feel better#that was not just a 'oh better remind rook they can always talk to their old pal varric for tactical reasons!' there was feeling in that#tho you know the reason I love solas is primarily the multiple other comments he has through that convo#that are laugh out loud hilarious to me. he's such a little SHIT!!! always and forever <3#listen man... in another life I'll come back for you and we'll be kinder to each other that time in the end huh

#would be nice if my brain could be quiet for just a few minutes#it’s like it’s against me#ever since I learned j had ocd so many things make sense and yet dealing with it….#this is why I love reading so much it distracts me from everything else#on a positive note#night coffee💕#it’ll be delicious#kit talks

The last of the rain stops dripping and for a moment the world feels too quiet and still.
#rain#rainyday#rainymood#prose#my writing#writers on tumblr#writers#writeblr#after the rain#there was a minute the other morning where it was so quiet it felt like everything stopped when the rain did#it felt unusual and unusual makes for good inspiration#i like this prose on its own but i think it could be cool to use it for a 'eye of the hurricane' moment#like maybe the rain's stopped but something else is coming and this is used to build tension towards it?#or maybe this could be a 'calm after the storm' moment#weird i think it could be used for opposite things XD#maybe i'll find something to do with it#though if someone else wants to that's ok too

TO RUSH. IM NOT MAKING SANDWICHES CARRIE. THERES LIKE 5 ALREADY OUT THERE I MADE YESTERDAY.)#srry she like implied-asked me to make some like 3 times while i was literally cleaning her mess.#i cant work in that kitchen if every surface is cluttered i will clean it before making a Bigger Mess.#anyway. she only works over here if someone is sick enough to call out w no cover which is like maybe once every 4 months so#she doesnt know how to do things. which would be fine if she recognized that. she does the hot case so wrong yall.#its usually [burritos; stick items; boat items] [corndogs; strips; (boat items or fries)] [fried chicken; (space or fries] [bakes chicken;#special of day and fries after its gone; space/special part 2 or fries] [sweet corn; mashed potato; mac n cheese; two kinds of gravy]#its mever that when she works even tho its NEVER DIFFERENT.#today it was [baked chicken; strips x2] [baked chicken 2; special;boats?] [fried chicken; fries] [corn dogs;burritos; CORN.] [STICKS.; mac#;mashed potato; gravys]#WHY DOES SHE MOVE THE CORN.

last night i booted up inquisition to see if I could finish up some stuff before starting anything new in veilguard, realized i was smack dab in the middle of the hissing wastes and promptly quit the game to just start a new datv save because who can be assed to deal with all that. anyway new rook, who dis?

this time i successfully remembered that there is a height slider in character creation, so i have a TALL elf this time. warrior has been fun (in the little i've played) but is also an adjustment that has made me indignant for multiple reasons such as "what do you MEAN my ranged attack is a completely separate button and not just right-click? AND it has a COOLDOWN???" and "you're telling me my rage depletes when i'm not actively hitting things in combat!?" iirc, momentum would just hang around until you got your ass whacked in combat, so this is truly an adjustment for me. blocking? i don't know her. i didn't deflect a single thing the entire time i was a rogue. that said, i was OVERJOYED to grab combat roll right out of the gate because combat roll my beloved <3 it's the best warrior skill in inquisition and i am pleased to be reunited with her
i have no more updates because I only played the prologue last night, but I am EXCITED to maybe go a little faster on this playthrough and. you know. grab davrin. soon. for romancing reasons. i am very much looking forward to it!
#going back to inquisition was WILD#everything was so empty. and silent. you ever fought 5 groups of venatori in complete silence? it's eerie#like where was the MUSIC even. it's too quiet in that game#i think i was dragon hunting when last i left off (my favorite sport) but i can't find the damn dragon becayse i don't know where the tomb#is and then i couldn't be bothered to FIND the tomb because all I was doing was running through empty land. in complete silence.#trying and failing to locate anything#i gave it 10 minutes and just straight up gave up LMAO#going back to veilguard honestly felt so much more...captivating i guess? absorbing? you get the idea#rosie plays games kinda okay#that dragon sure does age

Tiny round-up of TTRPG characters I played this year:
Oleander (she/her), the Wild Spirit in Wickedness
Julia North (she/her), the Secret Girlfriend in Alice Is Missing
Not pictured:
Picker (they/them), a warforged rogue in a D&D one-shot
(obligatory picrew link)
#LARP is just pedagogy for nerds#Queenie actually says something on this blog#Oleander's specialty was beast magic and she was constantly overextending herself#and constantly bickering with the Old Soul#also her bonded beast was a shrike :) normal :)#she wound up falling to being corrupted by the Underworld and uh. caused the apocalypse? oops#sometimes when you make yourself into a weapon and systematically destroy yourself someone else finds you USEFUL#Julia was just in a state of nonstop panic the whole time#was hypersensitive to anything Alice had told others that she hadn't told Julia#blamed herself for everything that was happening even when that made no sense#Picker I rolled up in like five minutes at a wedding????#a bunch of us in the bridal/groom's party decided to play D&D inexplicably#the plot of the one-shot was that we were all warforged and were tasked by our shared mechanic with rescuing his bride#anyway their main claim to fame was finding a way to completely circumvent a task by using lateral thinking and gymnastics#also being the only one who was mildly effective in the combat puzzle? baffling#also not a proper character but shout out to the violent old man who committed so many atrocities in The Quiet Year#truly a character of all time. Atrocities Georg.

Istg I actually need to sit down and write a proper bio for Riku because even I get confused af as to what his personality is sometimes.
#oc tag#“but prince he's your oc how tf did this happen” he has a mind of his own trust me#i mean this is literally one of the parts of his character he is literally so good at adapting his personality#because he felt he needed to as a kid both in school and in the business world#that barely anyone knows what he's actually like#like one minute he's a suave overconfident guy who can take on anything#but hes also the quiet dude in class who never participates is probably asleep but somehow gets everything right and is top of the grade#he loves to flirt but will absolutely blue screen if anyone flirts back because despite the fact he flaunts himself-#he doesn't think hes attractive LMAO#his biggest motivation is spite and he doesn't know when to quit#this boy has so many fucking issues istg#def one of those characters who has so many masks that he hardly knows himself#i have a fear that he's nearly too complex to the point where he's a confusing character and i personally dont think thats a good thing#so i really hope that's not the case for you guys 😬#over my break ive really spent time trying to iron out his character and just make him into soemthing im even more proud of you know#the good thing is that at least his story now has a clear arc and theme which im really proud of#so im gonna use that to build off and iron him out even more#the way i put more work into this funky dude i came up with than like my entire uni work#i love him so much sorry to be mentally ill about a guy i made because i liked a ship too much (and crossover i was having fun with too)#one day i will have a proper post for him with references and everything for him his outfits his personas the lot#one of these days

when when the health webbed sites they say tht pulsatile tinnitus is temporary in comparison with regulsr tinntius but then the the tumblr users are saying ive had it since a kid 5.5 years of pulsatile tinnitus etc etc n im crying again
#pulsatile tinnitus#originally when i was sick once i started getting gurgling sounds#idk of it went away fully but it wasnt consistent#then at some point i started getting beeping too again not consistent#sometimes loud beep will be accompanied by momentarily not being able to hear anything at all lioe everything else goes quiet#sometimes everything goes quiet but there's no beep#this latest sound is not like the gurgling it's not a beep nothing else is going quiet#it's just a fucking thumping tht wont let yp#n it's by far the most annoying#i remember the gurling being annoying the first time it came when i was sick but it went away when i got better n only comes back#periodically for a gurgle or two#the beep is usually one at a time myb a minute long if so much n probably most ive ever had is 2 in a day#it's usually at least to my memory really not very bothersome#but this thumping is abt the make me Literally bang my head into a wall#n it's been constant since at least Sunday sigh#cloud nonsense
