You know if I had to pick someone to ship Cayde with besides the YW, it would probably be Zavala or Crow. In the former case, it’s simple: Opposites attract, and I think serious man in love with clown is cute. As for Cayde and Crow? Admitedly that only comes from like one fanfic I read by KadiaShade on A03 (good read btw, check it out: https://archiveofourown.org/works/33228232/chapters/82501873) but I kind find it cute. On the other hand, while I do like Crow/Cayde, I prefer them as buddies or mentor and teacher.

I have been thinking about Victoria's interactions with the main cast and I have a lot to ramble about

Customary deadlands campaign spoiler warning

First, just how much more Victoria knows about the main cast than she lets on? Croyd's Wrath is established as a very small town, there's no way she missed everyone's shenanigans there unless she put active effort into ignoring those – in particular, Delacy shooting No Security Deposit Bill in the knee and Silas scaring Arlo into cutting down the bribe(also the bartender from the town saloon to the lesser extent - he got away unharmed, just terrified beyond reasoning). Like, those people live right there, in town, and the gang stayed there for at least a week and a half, most likely a little more – between Silas having a messed up shoulder after a sasquatch fight, Delacy getting non-fatally shot in Dead Man's Worth and Edie resting and healing after both her bounty hunting trips. General store visits would've gotten pretty awkward. Imagine Victoria politely, but firmly establishing house rules on things like not casting Infest or checking if the Coup is working inside of her house.

I know the packed lunch bit was mostly for laughs, but rewatching it with the ending(and the Q&A) in mind turns it genuinely heartbreaking. On one hand, Victoria at that point is established as unfailingly polite, if a bit distant - so, her making packed lunch for her tenants/hired bounty hunters when they ask for it sounds like her being polite. On the other hand - Edie mentions that she expected to receive snacks, not a full-on packed lunch, and Silas goes straight to polishing off the pot of homemade hummus that he was given: Victoria clearly given them more than what they've expected to receive. Also, Silas sounded like he was joking around when he asked for packed lunches - implying that he either expected snacks, like Edie, or didn't expect anything at all(which isn't illogical; most people in such circumstances would either make their own packed lunches or skip a lunch altogether, not ask someone to make one for them), and then Victoria went ahead and made packed lunches for them both anyway without saying much about it. This hits very different after both "I came to consider you my friends" and "The other Horsemen were her family": this bit reads like a genuine moment of kindness to me, because Victoria already gave the gang one hell of a motivator to work with her at that point(2000$ for each bounty), she didn't really need to keep convincing them. Also, note that the second person who asked for packed lunch is Edie – who has shown compassion to Victoria when she shared her backstory. Think about it: from Victoria's point of view, she's reliving the greatest failure of her entire existence – failing to properly start the Apocalypse, getting betrayed by people she considered her family(as much as such concept can be applied to them) and having her powers sealed away; then, Edie, at the moment basically a stranger, swoops in and says "you say you aren't strong, but for surviving all this, I think you are pretty strong". I am unwell about this scene.

And when (almost)all is said and done, during the final confrontation, Nate drops this line: "Never make friends with people you're paying; they will not respect you". I know, Delacy's "We already killed four horsemen. We can kill a fifth" while making eye contact with Victoria is iconic, but I think it was Nate's line that emotionally destroyed Victoria, though Edie's monster hunter speech and "She wants you to become [a monster] as well" "That's even worse!" are close contenders. Think about it: she thougt she finally found strong, capable candidates to replace the original Horsemen(who had betrayed her), she considered them friends, and one of them just up and said that it never was the relationship she assumed it was. That it had no chances of becoming that relationship from the start.

tell me abt,,,,, ur fursoner

Hooo howdy did you open the floodgates:

The fursona depicted in the icon is my werechicken, Perdue. She claims she was cursed by Baba Yaga in a Krogers parking lot but actually she got that way by making a party drink out of werewolf blood and Nesquik which interacted with all the hot wings in her stomach and now she’s a werechicken and can’t change back. She can’t run very good, but she can punch really hard, jump really high, and lay lots of eggs every now and then, also a healing factor. Eating one gives the imbiber some of her healing factor for an hour as well. She has a set of different hoodies that have words that telegraph her mood, and she’s banned from most grocery stores because she tried to sell her own eggs without a commercial liscence. The eggs always seem to carry an eerie warmth.

Other fursonas include:

Cannabun: Croyd, a rabbit who got in a car accident and the presiding surgeon was a wolf who, as a joke, replaced their GI tract, lower jaw, left eye, and left adrenal gland of a cat. The poor thing is strung on immunosuppressants while being forced to eat live meals, and doesn’t have a good, long life after.

Gutslut: a calico rabbit named Narcisse who crushed on pred types and thinks of them as walking embodiments of transcendentalist poetry. Gets flustered when a pred opens their mouth near her faaaace, and may have a death wish.

Azra: a dull gold freshwater mermaid that lives in lakes and devours swimmers, but is very polite and has to reset her jaw to speak when being rudely interrupted. Will often abandon eating someone if they can interrupt her by speaking to them enough, forcing her to reset her jaw one time too many and making her mouth sore. (Screaming does not count, be calm and ask questions).

Esther Bonnie: a human turned into a rabbit like fairy by a cadre of faerie hunters who ate her name and flensed her skin off in chunks, sewing the pelt of her predecessor to her steaming meat and turning her into a rabbit girl, and forcing her to be Quarry for their hunting ritual. After a decade of being chased, killed, and revived and chased again. she tricked them into letting her go and “giving her a year and a days head start” as a means of making the most challenging Hunt. Now she’s back on Earth and trying to is absolutely lazy to make up for being made to run for ten long-ass years. She has vague memories of being a drummer in a band and her favorite video game was the missle command cabinet at the pizza place she frequented. Is absolutely clueless of all technological advances from the last 40 years (abducted in 1987, faerie time stretched ten years over 40).

There are others, including a werewolf named The Blue Devil whose fur is that comic book blackish blue coloration, and a vampire who just casually eats people as friendly as you please.
