i finished veilguard, my life has no meaning, also what yhe FUCK was that post credit scene, im afraid. and i cant wait for the next one tbh. i hope my rook gets to be a lil well remembered hero who stays ready as the veilguard but has decided to protect thedas from demons and twisted spirits using their expertise as a mourn watcher and my likely connection to the fade, ya boy would spend time learning ancient elvhen funeral practices from bellara and how they effect the fade too.

i just want my boy to have some peace with his husband, go on ...safer adventures...cause his heart nearly gave out a few times and itll take a while to put it back together again. hes always going to be looking for harding and honouring her too, i want to think she was the one he went to when he had panic attacks. i think hed be searching spirits and the fade, and hed go visit hardings mom (would probably cry more than she does too especially if she looks like lace). hed have tea with mahanon and visit the griffins, and the caretaker a lot, but when its all over and everything is mosty recovered and he visits vorgoth and myrna he gets a lecture from myrna and a begrudgingly relieved hug, and vorgoth doesnt really say much but takes him aside and pats his head like when he was child and would hide from his lessons because they made him feel dumb.

i love dragon age, i never want the series to end, i need to revisit inquisition again

#ive seen people speculate about what vorgoth is and those things kinda looked like them??#BUT UH.#PLS DONT INTRODUCE MORE GODS OR GODLIKE BEINGS #the next game is going to be so interesting if they take into account the choices made in this game with the archive #and how solas's story ended #and also the fucking CALLING.#im sorry but plot wise thats ones of the few complaints i have #they said it changed but that didnt seem to impact anything #and it wouldnt! but if it changed bevause of the gods....but might recede with solas paying penance?#what does that mean for thedas and the way the blight ebolved #and the calling #was that a ghilan'nain thing or was it soemthing else....since clearly we know now its not necessarily a death sentence #did the gods design the concept of the calling to fuel more darkspawn creation or was it soemthing that just...happened?#i did love this game a lot but i think it would have been better if it had been a tiny but more like inquisition #for the hideout at least and getting to talk to companions and learn more about them a bit #some of the game felt a little incomplete and not quite as..filled out as it could have been maybe #i think the final act should have been a bit different with the gods or at least elgar'nan #but idk it felt.....so much more depressing than da usually is in a lot of ways and id have prefered to have to make other choices #and not like...choosing what my companions lived turn out to me???#i love emmerich but i shouldnt have had to choose between lich and manfred that wasnt fair #i prefer the politics of dai and the justice of da2 #i still think origins was ass but it was fine for setting up such a good series #i just wish veilgaurd hadnt been so depressing at times and maybe it hits me harder because im an elf in every game but #if it had been less depressing i think my nick picky feelings about it would be easier to tolerate #2 was still the best but dai was my favourite too #i did really love how much being trans could be talked about for my rook tho!!! and taashs story was amazing!!!!!#and i want to see more of that!!!#but i wish the background non plot stuff had been as rounded out as dai #but this was the perfect amount of sidequests imo #dai had too many and the story was too short

so i wore a pride flag pin to work the other day and the kids were all interested (obviously) (find me a classroom of preschoolers who are not obsessed with rainbows) (i'll wait) so they crowded around to see.

"aww!" they said, "it's a flag!!"

but the thing is: they're little. a lot of them don't really have a handle on all their mouth sounds yet.

such as, notably, that tricky tricky "L" sound.

#suddenly i'm in the middle of a gaggle of kiddos and All Of Them Are Calling Me A Slur #funniest thing that's happened all month honestly #pride #early childhood education #square
