People have written a lot of touchy-feely pieces on this subject but I thought I’d get right to the heart of the matter

neither “that’s not canon” nor “fuck canon we made this all up” but a secret third thing (canon shouldn’t be taken as gospel but is useful as a reference point for building upon and recontextualizing characters and details. if you worship the source material as unchangeable then fandom in general probably isn’t for you. if you have complete disdain for the source material you would probably enjoy yourself more in a different fandom)

i love making characters because it’s so often like I’m going to give you bits and pieces of myself. like my love of the color yellow. and the religious trauma

Mystra showed him the secrets beneath the veils. The gossamer veils first, draped across the Weave. The delicate veils next, draped across her body. 'Chosen One' she whispered, as she slipped them off completely.

poor gale :'(

- the dialogue is from ea gale's explanation about his folly

- i kinda like that she ended up looking like a mother-of-pearl inlay lacquerware!

- oh this was a subconscious choice, but Gale is sitting in seiza which is a posture for showing respect especially to elders. it's also known to be a painful position to sit in for extended periods of time, which is why it was sometimes used as a method of (morally dubious) punishment. however, experienced people can maintain this posture for much longer. food for thought :-)

- (idk how credible this is but i think this position also leaves the person sitting pretty vulnerable to attacks compared to a cross legged sit? in that sense it would be an even greater show of deference)

omw to write a story consisting solely of my favorite tropes and characters i think are cool

[athkatla]

people reducing a character to a single trait and exaggerating it

when said character happens to be your favorite

[athkatla]

How do you feel? GALE: Relieved. Drained. Proud of myself, for summoning the courage to go to her in the first place.
