#bear the stuffed bear

[horsyunicorn]

For Tav ask game, for sweet Emerald: 16 &17, 23, 41, 62 and 70: what's one favorite item in her backpack she never leaves camp without? (You may not say healing potion lol)

oh thank you!

16. Which of the companions does your Tav trust most?

Halsin. He is the one who she is comfortable flirting with as friends and also the one who she trusts to get things done independently, if left to his own devices.

17. Which of the companions does your Tav distrust most?

Astarion. He drinks blood...he had to drink Emma's blood that one time and she was dizzy for a whole day! Also he seems to steal things but also he's so bad at picking locks, Lae'zel is better at picking locks, even Shadowheart is better at picking locks

23. What is your Tav’s favorite moment they’ve had with their lover?

Probably when Shadowheart invited her to a little splash splash in the terribly cold water at night. Emma is the kind of person who is unsure of someone's intentions and feelings until they make it explicitly clear through physical actions.

41. What animal best represents your Tav?

Probably a mouse.

62. What meme describes your Tav the best?

The Pensylvanian method of working out you're in the middle of your parking spot. "Back it up" a bit until it hits the car behind, then "edge it forward" a bit until it hits the car in front. Except for picking up stuff from recently dead people. And potentially non-free crates/bags/chests.

70. What's one favorite item in her backpack she never leaves camp without?

Bear the stuffed bear.

Emma found him in the detritus and wreckage littered around the wreck of the nautiloid. Lae'zel thought he was just some random toy that belonged to a traveller and was left in a backpack on the road to Baldur's Gate.

He is not. He fell off the Nautiloid from a chest when it crashed, and he is Emma's only childhood toy from the Temple.

me and who

[reasonsforhope]

Sometimes you just have one of those moments where the progress we've made as a culture get thrown into stark relief. You look at something and go "Holy shit, that would never have happened when I was a kid."

Today, I had one of those moments when I realized that the teenage boys I'm working with are just. genuinely, openly enthusiastic about going to Build-a-Bear for their outing.

These are sixteen and seventeen year old boys! They just had a whole conversation about what to name their "cute", mostly new squishmallows! They're genuinely excited that they're going to Build-a-Bear this weekend and asking other kids to pick up specific accessories for them!!

Holy shit, that never would've happened when I was 16. None of the boys would have dared to be visibly interested - and neither would most of the girls! There would have been a million gay jokes and "Haha, you're a girl" jokes and "What are you, a baby?" jokes. Teenagers weren't even supposed to care about anything back then!

Less than 15 years later, and I'm watching three 17 year old boys treat all that as not even worthy of comment.

So let's call that a reason for hope. Even when the kids aren't alright, in some ways apparently they are alright. Go Gen Z, honestly. It's so lovely to watch you guys just openly doing and saying stuff that, when I was a teen, would've been a social death sentence.

So I've been doing this thing for months where I just start grabbing one of my plushies to have as tummy support to prevent me from leaning too far forward towards my screen (the plush pushes me back as it's against the desk).

Maybe not good advice but for now it's better than me leaning all the way forward like a dog

There is something so captivating about gaining higher ground. Teddy looked out over the braided West Matukituki River as he worked his way up a nearby ridgeline. Can you blame him for wanting to sit here watching the day drift by?
