So I've been digging through various dialogue things, and I came upon a devnote that is so fucking funny to me.
The idea that during the first romance scene Astarion is trying to portray sexy and confident, but then in his mind he's like "Yesss I'm so good at this." is so infinitely funny to me lol. He's so silly.
I started with succulents like everyone else but tbh orchids are rapidly becoming my plant blorbos. Everyone takes care of them wrong and it's not your FAULT because the care instructions that come with them are!! Incorrect!!! If you do what they say then your orchid will die!!!! If you give them the right environment they're SO easy. They're such easy plants to grow. They have been UNFAIRLY SLANDERED by a MISINFORMATION campaign. They don't deserve this.
the good thing is i did find the hallmark twilight eddy boi and bella goose ornament and slapped that thang on the tree front and center for peak cringe
currently: spiraling abt how its almost the holidays and i have less than half of the things i need to do done before xmas day since im hosting the fam and i !! am procrastinating by using all my free time to binge bg3 again and take 4839484823 captures on every dialogue/cut scene in my playthru...............................i want to take a crowbar to past current and future me's kneecaps right now ngl
we as writer will beat ourselves up because “oh i only wrote 300 words today.” but whenever i talk to my non writing friends/family and i tell them how many words i wrote that day/week/month they are always impressed. no matter how inadequate i feel about it.
everyone is always impressed that i wrote 200/300/500/1000 words of a story i created and you know what? we all should be impressed with ourselves.
we’re creating whole worlds and it doesn’t matter if you wrote 5 or 50 or 500 or 5000 words today. you created something and you need to be proud of yourself.
