I’ve recently started Baldur’s Gate 3, and before when I would see posts/etc. I never got the Lae’zel hype mainly as a romance option I was always like …. Ok… she’s a bit odd looking and abbraive
And yet… almost immediately after I started my first playthrough I was obsessed with… and I think that’s beautiful character growth on my part
#looooving bg3 so far#originally was gonna romance gale first#but after seeing lae’zel#her face reminds me of a cat 🥹#and she killls me#I understand the obsession with this game now…#looking forward to Gale and Wyll’s romances too#looking forward to exploring everything really tbh

obsessed with the Helena and Irving parallel and what it says about the aspects of our identity we think are fundamental (but aren't)...
Like Outie Irving assumes his Innie is just as radically anti-Lumon as he is. He assumes his hatred of Lumon is something ingrained in his personality! That's why he stays up at night drinking coffee and making paintings, because he hopes that when his innie dreams about the testing floor, he'll say "okay bet" and start exploring. That's what Outie Irving would do, after all. But he miscalculated! His hatred of Lumon isn't inherent--- his desire for meaning and art and spirituality is inherent. That's what his hatred for Lumon is built on. But in a world where there's no meaning outside of Lumon propaganda, of COURSE his innie would become ridiculously devoted to the company.
And Helena!! She is the corporation, that's her whole identity. She presumably assumed that Helly would be just as pro-Lumon as she is. But she miscalculated too! Her devotion to the company isn't inherent, her headstrong and entitled nature is what's inherent! And in a world where she's denied any agency whatsoever, that manifests as rebellion.
It's the same dynamic flipped on its head. They both sent their innies in there with opposite intentions--- one to take down the company, one feed the company's expansion--- only to realize that rebellion and devotion aren't inherent characteristics. Their innies have become the exact opposite of their outie selves, while still being exactly the same!! Because even though your personality is inherent, the values you hold are determined circumstantially. OUGH IT'S SO GOOD.

helly r saying “she can’t just take my identity” about helena pretending to be her on the severed floor is so gutting because like. helena already has her body. helly can never change that, or exist without that being the case. so really… her identity is all she has. she came back to the severed floor to find out that helena took from her again, in a new way she didn’t realize was even possible

A collection of drawings for my inquisitor Isera Lavellan’s Atlantan Au
(inspirations and rambling below the cut)
So my initial idea came from the idea of vestal virgins in Ancient Rome and I wanted to take that idea.
So Isera was initially a spirit of devotion, and Sylaise saw her as the perfect servant and high priestess as she showed submission and deference to the ‘Goddess’. Isera initially started out as a simple priestess (see the limited Vallaslin) before being promoted after her usefulness became clear.
Isera in Arlathan operates as a hearth tender and takes confessions from the population of Elvhen, and has also taken a vow of silence to ensure that Sylaise’s followers have someone they can trust to carry their secrets, fears, and desires.
But ultimately, a tricky servant of Mythal building his rebellion seeks out Isera and convinces her to turn her devotion away from her mistress and towards their people as a whole. And for the first time in centuries, he hears her speak secrets to help the rebellion. I like to imagine through their secret partnership they fall in love and show one another what love is - not blind following or submission but mutual and caring.
For artists notes - I’m actually very pleased with how Solas turned out I think it bears at least a little resemblance. I’m also pleased with how my little portrait of Sylaise turned out.

I haven’t finished veilgaurd yet (slow I know, I’m trying to savor it) but even before it came out I would see stuff on Solas and a romanced Lavellan reuniting and think of my own interpretation.
Where’s the representation for Lavellans who are in love with Solas, but hate him more. Who cry into the night and scream into the mirror at their own Vallaslin. Who no longer trust their own kind for fear of spies or traitors - and scratch up the murals left in skyhold.
A star crossed lover reunion is good but a Lavellan coming face to face with the ghost of a lover and the face of an enemy is so good too 🙂↕️

thought they were going to make Alys some untouchable sexy witch woman and was not super interested, but she's really just silly
Obviously she's very clever too, and knows exactly how to stay in control in a world where every man is trying to grasp it from her... but the way in which she has an actually personality and she's still unnerving but feels very human too... I love it

Rhaenyra telling Jace a joe biden story while he’s holding in the my name is paul mua’dib atreides speech so hard he’s actively having an aneurysm meanwhile her huncle is doing ayahuasca with a goth girl he met at hot topic two hours ago and the woman holding 60% of their cool points on her back has just exploded into meat chunks over southern ohio. black council in shambles this week I fear. the green council’s default state is shambles so that’s not news
