#etc etc but let me cook

[the-cat-at-the-theatre-door]

I know you enjoyed the game, so I wanted to ask here: which BG3 companions would have which cats as their pets?

We're cooking with gas and putting two hyperfixations into the large hadron collider, eh?

Okay, I can tell you right now that I have several off the top of my head, not only in that would have them as "pets" (or to the extent that Halsin would consider an animal a "pet" which is more of a companion) but that they align from a character personality standpoint:

Astarion - Black and White Alonzo (Vain with courage issues) and - stay with me - The Rum Tum Tugger. Little chaotic shit with a showboat streak who holds a grudge with underlying emotional depth? Astarion. Tugger.

Lae'zel - If she could be persuaded into having a pet, I just can't help but see her with the haughty, disdainful and lonely Cassandra.

Wyll - Munkustrap and Victoria (The protector, the courageous and the loving and the romantic little princess)

Shadowheart - Demeter and Bombalurina (Both gals are both sides of Shadowheart's personality and I feel like she'd get on well with the two of them). She's also a potential Jemima weird girl.

Karlach - I can see Karlach with any of the kittens or adolescents tbh, but Tumblebrutus/Bill Bailey and Etcetera are coming to the forefront of my mind.

Gale - you think I'm going to say Magical Mr. Mistoffelees or maybe Coricopat and Tantomile (though I can absolutely see those), but it's obviously Jennyanydots and/or Jellylorum. Jenny and Jelly are essentially Tara. It makes the most sense. I would even throw Skimbleshanks in there for good measure. Gale is a cat dad - he can have 3+ as a treat.

Minthara - Grizabella (Proud to a fault and indomitable? Minthara. Hurt? Also Minthara. This one just makes a lot of sense to me, particularly if you trace who Grizabella used to be along with who Minthara used to be pre-tadpole and brainwashing.)

Halsin - Deuteronomy (Wise, loving and a commanding presence, Old Deuteronomy belongs to no one and is beloved by all - generally even tempered and protective. Oldest cat with dad lore. He also gets kidnapped, waxes the occasional poetic, and canonically *redacted*)

made ugly little churros but i didn't expect how many churros one recipe could possibly yield

[altschmerzes]

looking at my body of work is very funny sometimes because of the recurring trends bc it’s like gee i sure do love a story about somebody Going All The Way Through It and somebody who cares about them being like damn that sucks you should come live with me for a while about it

[bleue-flora]

yeah that makes sense, like in Minecraft it's difficult to have subtle body languaje so You have to go for more direct ways to show it. Also that cdream being the type of person who is always moving fits well with his ex speedruner reputation he has on the lore as well too

[context]

Exactly. Not that I think cc!Dream was like intentionally giving his character ADHD (it’s actually probably a result of his own ADHD :D), more of just how I interpret it… and yea it does fit well with the speed running, but to be fair I’m not sure I know any neurotypical athletes or runners who behave in a similar way -> hence ADHD. :)

the fact that tōsen can cook might be my favorite part of his canon

[fruityumbrella]

hardest part about writing sanji is that i dont know shit about recipes or cooking

[du-hjarta-skulblaka]

Stuck on the first few eps of Farscape after finishing up Fantasy High s2 and maybe its the whole most recently consumed bias but I'm really struck by how much it feels like a dnd game??? Bunch of weird lil renegades slapped together and put in weird situations, honestly it would make a really interesting starting point for a game

Anyway John Crichton is a bard/wizard; he does a lot of persuasion as performance and that scene of him collapsing to the floor to write slingshot equations is THE most wizard shit- perhaps Artificer would be more accurate to him but it's not a class I'm familiar with.

t swift releasing a new album this year further fuels my belief that harry won't make a comeback until 2025

(remembers seeing the yosuke au blog's post about merfolk yosuke) Oh No

Like honestly when he moves out to inaba he's like "hey at least i wont be invited out to the pool or to the beach or something" (not that he doesn't reject those invites)

probably during the camping spiel he doesnt bring any swimming costumes cuz ya know. Gotta stay dry and theyre saved from morooka's puke! Hooray!!

Maybe he used to sing a lil bit back when he was more relaxed about it, and he might've accidentally nearly lured a small child into the deeper parts of the ocean, so now he's more strict on himself. He does miss singing, but it's better to blend in. Safer to (pretend to) be normal. For everyone. No more songs, no matter how much it hurts him because he'd rather hurt himself than to hurt someone else.

But perhaps he misses it too much, and it's like a part of himself that's locked away and the last connection to the sea that he so desperately wants, so he buys himself a pair of headphones. To at least be able to hear someone do what he cannot.

(And even in Inaba, it still is in use. Just for more reasons than for what it was bought for.)

And honestly yeah he REALLY would not be happy to go to the beach. Maybe he's excited to see Yu Rise in a swimsuit or something, but beyond that he's kind of terrified. Maybe because he doesn't know if he has enough willpower to prevent himself from jumping into the waves and swimming far away to another place where he isn't the plague of Inaba's shopping districts, where he's more than JUNES and people sweep past him cuz he's only a face in the crowd.

And also because. Yknow. If ya go to the beach he's expected to hop inside the water, and he absolutely can't do that.

Either ways, when they get to the beach, he's staying firmly on the sand. No water for this (mer)guy!

@infinitexmuses for a starter between Kunikida and Maika

Today was his day off. He didn’t want to take the day off as he still had many things to finish at the office, however, his coworkers had pointed out that it had been a while since he last took time off for himself. The president even forced him to take the day off so he had no choice but to listen. If he couldn’t do any work in the office, he was still going to take advantage of this time and get other things done in his personal time. He created a schedule and was ready to follow it to the T.

He had already finished the first part of his schedule and now he was shopping for groceries. The vegetables and meats were on sale and he had to get the best deal and had successfully purchased what he needed. The only thing left were some treats and chocolate for Ranpo. He spotted one of Ranpo’s favourite chocolates. It was the last one. He was about to reach for it when someone had already taken it. He was surprised to see who it was.

“Maika?” He didn’t expect to see her here, however, this was the grocery store. “How have you been?”
