#authentic tears

the way they both sidled up to each other. the way they kissed under the moonlight. the way they set and respected each other's boundaries. the hand holding, the thumb war, the gentle smile, the "you won." this is the queer representation i needed. queer people being unapologetically queer in all the gentle, sweet ways we know.

I know Lezah is dead. I KNOW. But her last name is Sllew and she SLAYS. I want to give her apple juice and trail mix with extra raisins in it as a snack break from breaking convention regulations

People who have read Dry Your Tears to Perfect Your Aim before it's out seem to like it. All the more reason to preorder:

(Goodreads is not something authors should be looking at.)

it's been so many years since i've used tumblr to actually connect with people and make friends that i don't even know what the etiquette is anymore? do we still do asks or is it all messaging now? should i be making more silly little text posts so that my mutuals have something to reply to? should i be replying to more of my mutual's silly little text posts? or is that considered annoying these days?

「ああ…こぼれ落ちる涙はお別れの言葉

何も聞かず、ただ僕の胸に手を当て微笑みを浮かべ

君の頬に口づけを…僕は君を忘れない もっと強く抱き締めて僕が空に帰るまでー 君の細く透き通る声が僕を離さない もっと強く抱き締めて僕が消えないように…

僕が消えないように…」

Thank you for the translations! I have extra fun with them since my solavellan inquisitor was born in the Anders and then her family moved to her father’s clan when she developed magic. So Anders aka fantasy German is her first language. It’s super interesting reading about the different meanings and theories that come with it!

Ah, you’re welcome!! <3333 😁 I really enjoy making these posts, partially because it’s just so fun and interesting to compare translations, voices and voice acting to me! :D But I love this idea of the Inquisitor having another first language!

In general, I love how DA has implemented both real and fictional languages (and accents in the English version) in its worldbuilding, like aside from the obvious French, German, Spanish, Pseudo Latin in Orlais, Anderfels, Antiva and Tevinter, I love how you’ll hear the bard in Val Royeaux sing in French regardless of what version you play, or how the last verses of the original Grey Warden song are also sung in German, given that the Grey Wardens were founded in the Anderfels too (and fun fact, the song was actually performed by a German band called Corvus Corax!). And according to the World of Thedas book, the other verses are also in Dwarven, English and Elven, much in the spirit of the Grey Wardens uniting against the Blight regardless of race or origin. 😁

I wonder though if we’ll get to hear some more German phrases, if we get to visit Weisshaupt in DA4! 👀

(Also, I don’t know if I’ve mentioned it before, but even though I love Alix Wilton Regan too, the German female Inquisitor‘s VA, Manja Doering, is like one of my all time favorite VAs and I practically created my Lavellan with her voice in mind, so even now, it’s still a bit weird to me whenever I play in English or French and hear her talk with a different voice. lol)

ohhhhh, this quote from sam's gq interview really cuts to the center of something

"we confuse darkness for authenticity but often find genuine sincerity difficult to look in the eye"
