#The party got split up

I feel like Sollux would be more of a league player. Karkat would try to play it but give up like a week later

HHGGH my sis frequently infodumps league to me bc she tracks the esports matches so my impression of that game is like. heavily skewed towards the glamorized big-scale competitions with dramatic live broadcasting

idk much abt the game so i tried describing the hs peeps and asked her what champions they'd play. here's what she said (my description was likely very insufficient lmaoo pls take with grain of salt) -

sollux jungler. been playing since early league days, shaco to troll, otherwise kindred (i think he'd enjoy collecting fem skins and playing girls/girl mages too. cue vc constantly trying to bait him into pronouncing 2haco LOL)

karkat would start off playing garen in top lane, then eat shit and give up. months later revisits and plays more comfortably after switching to nautilus support tank in botlane (nautilus design is so freaking cute im alr attached AAA the most perfect champ for karkat 🥺🤲!!)

terezi replaces toplane with mordekaiser, dave botlane on aphelios. not sure abt midlaner, maybe vriska as yasuo to be silly bonus :ayaya: (she's a rosemary enjoyer) - midlaner rose as orianna, jungler kanaya as evelynn

i also like sollux dota 2- not just bc there's two in the name but also because dota and league have history as genre rivals so its funny thinking of sollux being a dota og elitist that way hajaha

however in my heart the best slkt gaming headcanon wld always be mmorpgs heh. i dont play so idk how it works but i did have some old scribbs w the concept, testing dynamic

Was feeling nostalgic tonight, so here’s a redraw of my first ever D&D character! My baby boy, Diminious <3

In typical first D&D character fashion, they’re an edgy elven rogue with no parents and a tragic backstory. And of course throughout the course of the campaign (CoS), things did not get any better— hence the elk antlers !

Getting possessed does indeed do stuff to a person

Thinking, as one does for no reason, about how the Descent into Avernus campaign is a pretty significant background event for BG3 - Karlach, Wyll, Mizora, the refugees from Elturel - but due to the nature of things, BG3 has to commit its setting to following up on only one of the many possible outcomes of the campaign. Elturel is raised from the Hells, Duke Ulder Ravengard survived, Zariel remains alive and an archdevil. That's the game's canon.

Now, however, consider this. A different outcome. One where Zariel is redeemed - by the power of friendship and a really cool sword, my tabletop group did just that. And after Elturel is raised from the Hells, Zariel gives the adventuring party one of her feathers, which they can use once to call upon her for aid.

(So a redeemed, archangel-again Zariel affects Karlach and Wyll's personal quests, of course, but there's a power vacuum in Avernus with Zariel gone, and it's not hard to consider that Mizora could be making a grab for more power and want Karlach hunted down for those reasons. Anyway!)

All of this is context for this joke:

Tav who previously experienced the events of Descent into Avernus, redeemed Zariel and saved Elturel, and is the member of their adventuring party who was holding on to Zariel's feather.

And then, like two weeks after all that shit, Tav gets abducted by mindflayers and gets a tadpole stuck in their head and goes through more shit with the feather in their pocket the whole time. Meets Wyll, meets Karlach, meets Mizora, hears about how their stories intersect with Zariel and Avernus. (Hears that Duke Ravengard was captured - man, we just saved him from the Hells, are you kidding.)

And in the midst of all that, Tav can, at any point, call on Zariel for help. Funniest timing for this: Either when Mizora is re-negotiating Wyll's contract, or in the Iron Throne after Wyll has broken his pact for good.

Just imagine it. This devil is being a bitch to your friend, threatening him with his dad's death if he doesn't sign over his soul again, so you call up her former boss. Imagine being Mizora and having that happen, one of Wyll's shitty little friends just saying "oh, by the way" and revealing that they have Zariel on speed dial. Imagine being Karlach and having that happen, Tav's helped her with her heart, heard all about what Zariel did to her, Tav turned Zariel back into a celestial and has her on speed dial. Wyll in the middle of this and also also learning that Tav met and saved his dad in Avernus. Zariel, showing up to help one of the brave adventurers who saved her and then finding herself in a room with Karlach and Mizora, both of whom are super pissed at her for very different reasons. The rest of the party on the sidelines, who are all trying to remember if Tav ever mentioned anything more than "yeah, I was in Avernus when Elturel was dragged down". (They didn't. Certainly did not mention that they are one of the people responsible for saving the fucking city).

Or like, the Iron Throne, Mizora thinks she's being so funny sending in the exploding spiders to make sure Ulder dies, well Tav's about to be hilarious--

“But the sunrise…” Kenobi muttered, frowning.  His eyes were closed and he was still swaying gently, maybe even more so since he had stopped walking.  The way he tipped his face up, Rex could have believed he was basking in the warmth of the sun—except that the sunlight was cold as everything else on this blasted planet, and Kenobi was at least thirty-five degrees off track.  “The sun already rose, sir.  We’ve been walking into it for hours.”  Rex had thought the drugs were wearing off, but if Kenobi was entering some secondary stage now—he stuffed down a wave of anxious frustration.  “Hmm.”  Kenobi rubbed at his beard.  “Hmm.”  Rex shifted Ahsoka’s weight across his shoulders, checked again that her lekku weren’t pinched behind his pauldrons, and tried not to tell the High General of the 7th Systems Army to get a karking move on.  “Pardon me, Captain.”  Kenobi took another two steps forward, steadiest he’d been on his feet all day, and then spun on his heel in a quick, baffling circle. “Sir?”  Force shit, clearly, but which kind?  If Rex was going to have to carry two Jedi, he’d need a better sling.  Kenobi smiled, face tilted up again, basking in exactly the same nothing, nearly forty degrees north of the bright blue sun.  “The Force suppressants are clearing my system, it seems.  This way now.” 

If the sun is already up, I wonder what could Obi-Wan be feeling. Who can say!

No-pressure tagging: @ialpiriel, @lynne-monstr, @zahnie, @losersimonriley, @kaylithographica, anybody else who wants to join in? I know I've seen a lot of folks tagged over the last couple days but I can't remember if I'm doubling anybody up or missing anyone

[pebbledrat]

The longer I'm around the more convinced I become that Jill and Michael also had some kinda codependent-besties archetype thing going on?? they may or may not even have been aware of it, but like. they're kind of a matched set, you know? Frequently purchased together, do not separate them

There were times when a person's emotion of sheer happiness could be felt so vividly. Those moments, when one would go, oh, so you can make that sort of facial expression, too. [Kim Dokja-!!!] The current appearance of Uriel was just like that to me. She extended her arms and vigorously embraced both me and Jung Heewon, proceeding to rub her cheeks all over us for a long time. In the end, Jung Heewon had to scold her a little. "Uriel, I can't breathe." [S-sorry.] She got flustered and backed away, but her eyes continued to sparkle. Sometimes, I found it hard to fathom how such a pure-but-dumb Archangel like her ended up with a Modifier of 'Demon-like'.

She’s so precious! Our super unbelievably strong archangel who likes to curse like a sailor is back and she's ready to kick demon butt. Uriel-Heewon-Dokja team up here we go!!!

Im sorry but this trend of "stay at home girlfriend" that's being glorified is the saddest fucking thing.

First of all never let anyone control your finances and solely rely on another for that because if they leave you're stuck with nothing. If they die you are stuck with nothing. If they are abusive and you need to get outta dodge you got nothing. Never let anyone have that power over you whether man or woman or literally anyone else.

2ndly it's also sad to say you cook, you clean, you wash the literal smudged underwear of some schmup, you're doing the full time work in their place and all for nothing but to get to call yourself "girlfriend". You don't get paid, you don't have the same tax benefits that you might have from marriage, you can't hop onto their insurance, you don't get anything because you're stuck with a person who doesn't view you as anything more than a live-in bangmaid with little value outside of that because they know you got so little self worth that you allow yourself to get used as a doormat.
