Though his fifteenth nameday was still half a year away, Prince Jacaerys proved himself a man, and a worthy heir to the Iron Throne.

Why yes I am using the Silt Verses to push propaganda for some of my faves 🤭

If you like TSV for its weirdo eldritch gods and cosmic horror most of these would fit.

If you're specifically looking for capitalism-core with a dash of lovecraft type shit The Craft Sequence and The Dead Take the A Train got you.

If you're looking for the Ace/aro Mood while attempting to comprehend the horrors and being persecuted for your creepy fantasy religion try Winter Tide/The Innsmouth Legacy.

You looking for the unhinged queers who do murder in the name of their gods + a middle-aged trans MC who's just trying her best™ No Gods For Drowning might be for you.

Ya like the messed up saints?the body horror?and devastation that the gods in TSV bring? The Black Iron Legacy might do you some good.

Suppressed religions & dangerous gods 2 electric boogaloo aka The Divine Cities. Also got that sweet sweet political intrigue and commentary on colonisers/colonised dynamic among other things.

TWs:violence, death, gore, body horror for most of these. Some sexual references but nothing too graphic, In the Craft Sequence I do remember Three Parts Dead having a non-consenual kiss, can't recall any further SA atm.

I'm bad at explaining but just try them. K thx bye.

Things could have worked out

I'm sorry I couldn't save you

Obviously spoilers but the new Candela Obscura has brought to us a team that SO FAR is composed by: Candyman, The Hulk and Jack Harkness.

Remains to be seen what the old man who, despite decades working around the horrors and bleed, is not a Walking Bleed Stick has and what the very average casino owner can actually do. I accept bids on this. Part of me wants the madame to be just a lady, part of me expects something deranged from her because, after all, she owns a brothel in a city that has more bleed per capita than any other and clients are clients, bleed covered or not.

dorian: what does the qunari priesthood tell your people about losing the war?

iron bull: ehn. the usual. water comes, water goes, but eventually the tides wear away the mountain. blah, blah, blah.

in addition to quite a few instances of the iron bull putting everyone around at ease with the qun, this. literally going 🙄🙄🙄 and mocking your own priesthood in the most exasperated tone. don't worry, guys, i'm not one of these qunari. you can trust me. :)

WIP Wednesday

Tagged by @theluckywizard and @anneapocalypse. Thank you! 💕

Tagging @lilbittymonster, @ir0n-angel, @mogwaei, @serial-chillr, @fadedsweater and @fiadhaisteach. No pressure!

By now you all probably know I've been absolutely swallowed whole by a Bullmance fic. And now it's a series because I'm trying to be kind to myself in terms of trying to write epics these days. The first fic is completed and will start posting next week (June 5, in fact). So here's a bit from the second fic, which is the Inquisition era.

“This the famed brother?” he asked, laying down a card to discard and drawing a new one.

“Yes. The Iron Bull, meet Mahanon Lathdahlen Lavellan.” The two men eyed each other up for long seconds before Bull stretched his hand across the table. Mahanon took his wrist the Dalish way and they shook once.

“Pleasure,” Bull said, half his attention still seemingly on his cards. Mira wasn't buying it and snorted. His head tilted towards her, accepting the callout and he made a more visible effort to appear friendly. “So, tell me how the clan thing works. Lathdahlen is the one you were born to, right?”

“And Lavellen is my current one, yes.”

Bull turned to her. “How come you never use it?”

“I wasn't formally adopted. No right to call myself a Lathdahlen. Plus, I'm not actually Dalish.” These were all things he knew already, but having her say it aloud made it obvious that he knew her history enough to clarify. It was blatant and would have been rude in other circumstances, but she also knew that the pair of them would be testing each other. She could read the set of Mahanon's shoulders just as well as Bull. He had something to say and it was likely to be defensive. Even Varric was reading the vibe accurately. He'd shifted so he could keep all three of them in his line of sight and he'd moved his glass so it wouldn't be in the way if a fist flew.

“Go ahead and say it, kid. I won't take offense with her sitting here,” Bull said lightly, not looking at Mahanon but his cards. Mira scowled at him, even though he couldn't see it. The 'we're all friends here' act wouldn't necessarily have been her choice, but Bull generally knew what he was doing.

“I know she makes her own decisions, but you hurt her, you'll have me to contend with. She is not without kin now.”

“Noted.”

“Mahi,” Mira scolded, turning her scowl at him. Honestly, the pair of them were going to drive her to distraction, weren't they. “Play nice.”

“He is, Chestnut,” Bull interjected. He was smiling now. “I'd've been disappointed not to get a threat from him at some point. He's your brother and all he knows about me is big, horns and long history.”

“Yes, well...you're not doing much to improve that impression.”

Bull grinned wide, showing off all his teeth. “We know where we stand.”

The Amaz: men are toxic and damngerous. They all lack respect for and hate women. Especially that Rafe Gardner he gives off big male energy.

HIII DUDE good afternoon how r u how's the tokyo ghoul rewatch going!! i would. Love 2 hear ur ghostkicks and/or tg thoughts literally at any given time. taking ur joke tags absolutely dead serious because im trying 2 figure out How To Write Them currebtly & we're doin a bit of wrangling in the google doc 😭.

u know i have the brainrot so so so badly because im on episode 3 of tg and all i can think is "i can make a pd au out of this" so im feeling rlly normal abt it basically. im blaming it on unravel.

ANYWAY. ANYWAY. ANYWAY. YEAH. HI. GHOSTKICKS. they are soooooo. tired depressed introvert gets adopted by a loud bubbly extrovert trope. at least on the surface. like how they behave at school in season 1. thinkin abt jimmy going "what is UP with bro behind u" and william just ominously lurking there. and how dakota defends him later !!!!!!!! idk how much of this youve gotten to yet bc i dont remember when it actually comes up in canon bc its such an ingrained part of his character but dakota is soooooo. guard dog coded. this hits especially hard in the "what if pd were villains" oneshot but its sooooo prevalent in canon too.

they both hold each other in the highest respect. william sees dakota as the prime (ha) example of what a hero should be. hes brave hes kind he does his best to protect everyone no matter what. hes all the things that william Isnt. BUT !!!! dakota also looks up to him !!! hes so smart hes good at problem solving hes so curious about everything and asking questions and poking his nose into things that nobody else would even consider. dakota knows hes not smart so he automatically looks to william whenever he needs a plan or someone to tell him what to do when he feels lost. they complement each other and they dont even !!!!! know it !!!!!!!

also regarding williams powers. fuck dude. season 1 he was so fucking scared of himself and ashamed of the things he could do . he hid every time he had to use wisp form !!! but dakota always thought it was so cool and was not QUIET about it. boy went fucking STAR EYES the first time he saw wisp form !!!!!! i will never stop thinking abt the first rolled for season 2 where charlie goes "if dakota hadnt left, he probably wouldve been able to convince william to keep using his powers and not to completely disregard their existence like he has been" and . considering what william is like in season 2... god this wouldve been a COMPLETELY different fucking campaign. theyre so. incredibly soulmates to me. theyre so important to each other theyd do anything for each other. i cant say too much more without accidentally giving you spoilers bc i WILL keep talking and not be able to shut up but GOD fuck ghostkicks enjoyers eat so well in the latter half of s2. moirails. 2 me !!!!!!!
