I loved your drawing(and I love your style in general) with Leia in your recent post! If/when you have time can we see more of her in your style? I get so happy whenever I actually see people mention/talk about her and she’s not just forgotten because we didn’t get to see much of her. 😭

thank you! 💙💙💙 Leia/Leah/Lea/whatever is fascinating to me. she is the ultimate unknown. what was she like? how involved (or even aware of any details of the invasion) was she? Silver's basically a physical carbon copy of his biodad, so what did he get from her? like, I understand why the two of them kind of have to stay as these super vague and mysterious figures -- the whole point of them is that their story ended 400+ years ago and they're not really relevant anymore (and. well. the more that gets explained about them, the less that can just kinda be handwaved as "oh the politics were Very Messy") (we can sit here and theorize all day but let us acknowledge that, ultimately, canon gave us almost nothing about them post-Meleanor and we'd just be making things up). I do still wonder about her though! RIP Lea, we never knew you and we probably never will.

actually you know what, as long as we're here, I think I WILL go ahead and just make some stuff up about what Silver might've inherited from her instead.

Dude im eating up your transfem starscream SO HARD idk if its funnier to imagine that KO instantly clocked them with the gaydar or if they find out accidentally like "are you?" "Yeah..... And you are?" "...yeah"

Also starscream its unfair to have your doctor friend prescibe your estrogen/j

They clocked each other immediately… for better or worse! At least Screamer lets KO do her makeup (sometimes).

SPOILERS FOR MEMORIES

The asks are back!

How did you feel about Felassan? I was thinking of you the whole time.

Any idea what the Slaughter of the Pillars could be referring to?

hello! ◕‿◕ (rest of post under cut due to DA:TV spoilers)

indeed ~ヾ(＾∇＾) having completed the game now I'm no longer afraid of spoilers hhh. I hope that you enjoyed the game? tysm for writing and thinking of me, that is 🥺..

Felassan - some random reactions: [one, two, three]. I was sooo excited and shook to see Felassan in the game!! I yelped/hooted out loud like a clown (...) and then it was kind of overwhelming (in a good way). and then it took me quite some time to process or gather my thoughts about it. I was sure that there would at least be some references to him in codexes/notes etc or allusions made in passing dialogue like Cole and Solas’ lines about him in Trespasser. then when the marketing mentioned that we would see flashbacks from Solas’ past in the Crossroads, I was like aaa omg, wouldn’t that be the perfect time to actually show Felassan??, as a Fade memory or flashback or spirit echo or something. so I was hoping like🕯️🕯️ but still wasn't prepared to see him as a voiced in-game model, or for the amount of content relating to him (all those codexes and notes etc) that there was.

Slaughter of the Pillars - the Pillars of the Earth are the Titans. (���Hail Mythal, adjudicator and savior! She has struck down the pillars of the earth and rendered their demesne unto the People! Praise her name forever!”) That undead boss embodies one of Solas’ greatest regrets, what he and Mythal did to the Titans during the war with them - sundering every Titan from their spirit, severing them from their dreams, which resulted in the Blight as the dreams were driven mad. it also in a sense broke the dwarves in two and caused the fall of the fate of the dwarven people. Beyond the mural-memory that pertains to this in DA:TV, there are depictions of this time in the ancient past in the DA:TV artbook: [one, two]. Annotations there describe Solas rendering the Titans tranquil and capturing their souls; dwarves as a consequence then losing their connection to magic and fleeing into the now-Tranquil earth; and the Evanuris then building Elvhenan using the power of the captured Titan souls.

(ah- hello! Hi! I'm trying to get my TF2 oc Speedster out into the world and I have chosen YOU as the first Spy account to interact with! Because I like your vibe and hopefully you don't mind my OC being gay and stupid QwQ on the pinned post on his blog are several links u can use to know more about him, also feel free to dm me to ask more about him or just go rummaging through my main blog which all the links go to- but enough rambling from me! Time to show off my stupid idiot!)

A-ah! H- um- hello Spy! How are you?

*he nervously shifts on his feet*

- @speed1skey

//ok first of all HELLOOOO SPEEDSTER!!! (And mod!) ty for choosing me! I’m honoured haha!! Btw I do not mind any of that at all. Hell yeah I encourage it haha! Dw I’m also stupid so I relate to him ready. I read a bit through your page and it’s all really awesome!! You’ve got some great info on there!! Super cool!! Also I really liked how you actually had ideas for gameplay! The carrying mechanic is really interesting!

Spy had a charming grin on as he was approached by Joseph.

“Ah, Bonjour, Speedster. I am well now that you’ve graced me with your presence.”

Of course he had to be as charming as his smile while he gave Speedster his full attention.

“And how are you?”

SO many amazing takes and additions in my reblogs and asks, I want to reply to each and every one of them but the skeletal claws of depression and unmedicated adhd keeps my ass sat in bed where I will read manga and stare blankly at a wall for 12 hours instead.

I love your monthly reading lists! Do you have any advice as to how to organise/keep track of what you want to read, what you've read, what was worth it and what wasn't? I really struggle with that part.

I sort of have a system, but it's not the best system, so I'm not sure I'd call it advice!

I've used Listography for as long as I can remember. Whenever I come across a book I want to read, it goes on one of those lists. The lists are out of hand, and I do really need to go back through them and be sure I do actually want to read everything that's there.

I've been fundamentally anti-Goodreads since the beginning, but I have enjoyed StoryGraph in the past few years. I put any books I already own in the To-Read pile and try and roughly track when I've started and finished something.

When I've finished a book, I make any notes and quotes in a "database" of books I've read on Obsidian (I've used Notion, Roam, and documents in the past for this).

Where I fall down a bit is "what was worth it and what wasn't". I can't bring myself to give books star reviews on StoryGraph and I can't really explain why. I guess I have no concrete operationalised definition of what a 4 star book is compared to a 5 star book so I just... don't. I also spend a fair amount of time researching what books I'm going to read before I do so to be fairly I'm going to like it. That means I very rarely read a book I don't like so nearly all of my reviews would be 4+ stars, which almost defeats the point.

I sort of judge what was worth it by how many quotes and notes I made, the more the better usually, but it doesn't always hold up with fiction books (something can be not very quotable, but the overall very impactful). Mostly I just remember, and that's not a good or helpful system.

For articles: my monthly list here and the quotes I post are the entirety of the tracking. Occasionally, if I read something exceptional, I'll keep a sourced copy of it in an articles section of the book "database".

Personally I think Lottie should be allowed to do whatever she wants when Nat is high/drunk like it's what they both deserve

I agree like maybe if nat didn’t tempt her so much she wouldn’t get used like a toy whenever her mind’s cloudy and hazy. lottie’s just putting her in her place <333

So the fight is really over...my glorious four armed giant spider is gone. Yuji really was foreshadowing about the slime thingy heh. I'm so happy to see the trio back and together again like you tell me this a year ago this is what was going to happen and I'd just give you a maniacal laugh. But I still don't know how to feel about Sukuna's end like we all knew he was going to die and in perspective it does feels satisfying. Sukuna being ripped apart from Megumi and his little convo with Megumi...yeah dude really is walking contradiction. Always saying he's living to die but actually doesn't want to die. Indirectly answering Kashimo's question. But his end just seems...eh? Like at first Kenjaku's end seemed like that to me too but it made sense later on. Kenjaku came in silence and went like that but Sukuna he was never like Kenjaku or Mahito so his ending being parallel to Mahito didn't really sit right with me and i actually wanted him to get anything but a glorious death but this feels...stale somehow? Idk he's still the same untrue to himself. Wish we could get more of his thought process. Or maybe this was it to show Sukuna's denial became his defeat. I just hoped for more emotionally charged defeat of his..but it's GeGe story I'm happy they're telling it like they want to.

Also Uraume and Hakari was funny too they fought all this time bonded, praised and just dipped. Makes me think if they had a binding vow with Sukuna too? Sorry for all the yap and incoherence. I'm just feeling underwhelmed? Overwhelmed? what are your thoughts regarding this chapter and Suku's end?

"my glorious four armed giant spider is gone" took me out sksksksk he's really just a bug when you think about it lol.

anyway thank you for sending me your ask. I really liked reading your thoughts and how you called suku out for being contradictory and a hypocrite till the very end AS YOU SHOULD THANK YOU!! honestly, this fact alone makes the whole chapter all the more special to me but on this in a sec cause I'm guessing the reaction to his demise is quite... well I guess ppl are not really happy with it..??? I mean some of them probably are and by "some" I mean *cough, cough* the haters *cough, cough* but well... I wouldn't know cause ONE I'm actually (and maybe surprisingly) super pleased and satisfied with this chapter and TWO, I didn't go and check others reaction to it lol I'm planning to keep it that way for now. I'm really not a big fan of twt fandoms spaces in fact I can't stand them... too much negativity and toxicity *shudders*.

so my thoughts... to put it simply, I loved it more than loved it actually. and yeah yeah sure he turned into a slimy lil bug which probably put many people off but hey let's not forget sukuna was basically like a parasite possessing megumi's body, so it makes sense that once peeled off only curse-like residues would remain... but I can understand why some stans didn't like that part. I personally found funny but that's just me lol.

and yeah the final seemed quite underwhelming, but I think that's what makes it so good. I didn't want sukuna's death to be the most interesting thing about his character and well it's not. rather than having a big an "after life" moment like jogo, gojo or kashimo, he spent his last moments with the only person who cared about the human sukuna so stubbornly tried to burry inside him.

I actually found his conclusion to be quite beautiful and moving, cause instead of being looked down upon by yuuji as many stans thought would be the case, he was offered something else entirely. something no one ever gave him - kindness and love. yes, I'm using the "L" word here cause in the end that's what it was... yuuji showed sukuna the true value of love. he accepted him and ask him to live with him despite everything sukuna has put him through. despite all the chaos chaos and distraction he caused him, yuuji still accepted him. he not only showed sukuna genuine empathy and compassion but also recognised that sukuna is really... just like him. when yuuji looked into (blop) sukuna's eyes (my beloved) he could only see himself. he realised that under different circumstances, he could've turned out like sukuna if he didn't have his grandpa by his side. he realised that if he could have turned out like sukuna then sukuna could've turned out like him too, that if only sukuna had someone who loved him and guided him and accepted him, he most likely wouldn't have turned into a curse, which is another thing I loved and cry about in this chapter.

sukuna only saw himself as a curse :")). he acknowledged yuuji and finally called him by his full name but in the end he still only think of himself as a "curse" not as human, not even as a god or king of curses but only a curse :")).

the reason why I loved just how "underwhelming" his death felt like is because instead of framing and defining his entire character by his his final moments, gege made the rest of his moments in the manga stand out EVEN MORE. instead of having a moment of reflection and introspection in this chapter as well as in chapter 265 or 266... and oh well entire shinjiku showdown basically, his character started to trip and reveal just how contradictory he is. sukuna claimed he was satisfied with his life and doesn't care about dying, he also claimed he doesn't care about ideals and even despised them, he also claimed he doesn't feel anything and he doesn't need others to satisfy him and then you have all those small moments when you realise "wait, that is not right" and you look back and rethink everything. sukuna does feel and he NEEDS others to satisfy him, cause that's what his entire "philosophy" hinges on.

"Every human has a unique and fleeting taste... which makes devouring them a perfect way to pass time until death"

he DID get excited when maki became the first person to ever give him a role

This is a first. You're the only one who ever forced a role upon me. (while grinning like a maniac)

and then megumi lied his bs out in the open and revealed that sukuna was afraid of death too, despite believing otherwise

Even something like you fears death...

this only goes to show that sukuna convinced himself (and many other readers) that he is not human, that he is above that, that he doesn't care about the things they do... but if even "something like him" feared death, got excited to be given a role, praised and encouraged others for their talents and skills and connected to them in one way another only to "pass time" or knew about flowers and caught a crayfish then that means... he must be human too.

and even if sukuna and the rest of the world couldn't and didn't want to accept that, there was one person who did. someone sukuna hurt the most, someone who saw him at his worst and at his weakest. someone who in the end still decided to show him love, because he belived sukuna is still worthy of love, despite everyone and maybe even sukuna himself, believing that he no longer is worthy of such thing.

"Even if no one else will accept you... I'll live with you" "Itadori Yuuji... don't underestimate me. I'm... a "curse"!
