I've been thinking about how the Amell Warden and Hawke are related, and that house Trevelyan is technically distantly related to house Pavus, with a number of distant relations spread all across Thedas (Phillam, Lord Albrecht, Lady Osher...), and now I can't shake this feeling that I really, really want house Trevelyan to also be related to whatever the human Rook's last name is going to wind up being.

It just really tickles me to imagine my Inquisitor shrugging, like "Yeah, their family and us Trevelyans have about as much to do with one another as the Pavus and the Trevelyans. Or the Couslands and the Trevelyans. Or the Bayarts and the Trevelyans. The De Ghislain and the Trevelyans. Us Trevelyans have had fingers in a lot of metaphorical pies, so to speak."

(and then Dorian can have a cute moment, and say a little quip about how he's not surprised that his amatus comes from a long and prestigious line of heartbreakers, heyoooo)

You know I genuinely don't regret going no contact with my dad's family. Every time I think I miss them it's actually me just missing the concept of having that half of my family, not me missing them specifically. They're all such shitty awful people and I'm so much better without them.

Ananza is the wind deity, though she's not the first with that honor. Originally the elder gods selected a man as their wind deity but after he witnessed Oh and Fulj being punished he requested to relinquish his role. Basically asking them for a mortal death rather than immortality. They obliged since the deities exist to help humans and a miserable deity won't do the job properly so no need to keep a deity bound to a task they don't want to do.

So Ananza was selected as a replacement. Fulj has no recollection of the first wind deity and Ananza has already been told by the fire deities that it wasn't Fulj's fault but she was the final straw for the former wind deity. So, Ananza doesn't hold any dislike towards Fulj and actually really likes listening to her talk. Ananza loves to dance and wander around her city so when Fulj stops by to visit, she listens to Fulj's adventures while they roam the city.

Because there are two fire deities and one can stay in their city while the other wanders and because Fulj no longer has a city to be focused on, the three like to visit the other cities to check in. Ohime and Ohiwe really like to visit Ananza while Fulj prefers to visit Ymber. While Ananza likes Ohiwe, Ohime, and Fulj, she really isn't fond of the ice deity or Ymber. She doesn't like to scramble for topics and ice/Ymber don't start conversations enough so it's a bother to Ananza to try forcing friendliness. She loves light hearted stories though and Fulj and the fire deities excel at that type of story.

(Ohime and Ohiwe sometimes call her Nana and on that note it's lore in the tags time)

The HORROR of hearing your little five-year-old voice singing awkwardly along to a pristine backing track because your dad was just dying to shove you in front of a mic and produce a song as soon as you could enunciate words semi-intelligibly.

Alfonse/Lif sword enthusiast moments

I feel like there are more instances specifically of Alfonse complimenting another person's weapon?? I can't remember if I'm just making that up or like. Where or when or who it happened with. Also cannot remember if his alts talk about their weapons, I feel like they don't? Which honestly lends itself to him just being really enthusiastic about swords specifically

I don’t often think I’m upset at not having a good relationship with my parents but sometimes it really fucking hits me that I don’t have a good mom I don’t have a dad I’ll never experience having a good parent and someone I can lean on like that and I get… really upset

...i'm starting to wonder if i wasn't actually pretty often failed by the adults in my life as a young kid tbh.

It's really interesting that we actually know very little of Bruce and Dick's history and dynamic in BTAS. Dick is already a college student at the start of the show, and there's already some distance between them, although not as acrimonious as it becomes later in the series. Older Robin/Dick isn't in a majority of episodes, and the only episode we see Dick as a kid in is his origin episode. Then, between the original series and the New Adventures, it seems like something happened that left them even more distant, and yet this isn't a Dick that leaves for Bludhaven. Bruce just breaks into his apartment a lot and Dick is like "what is wrong with you."

I'm of the opinion that for the timeline to make any sense (and even then it barely does), BTAS Bruce must've been like 21-2 when he adopted Dick, and it's really interesting to think about how that would've influenced their relationship. I'm very much against "Bruce is an abusive father" readings, but I think it's very fair to characterize BTAS Bruce as a bit of a deadbeat dad when it came to Dick-- not even necessarily for lack of trying, but because a 21 year old is just not equipped to successfully parent an 8 year old, especially an emotionally unavailable one like Bruce. They love each other, but it's the complicated love of like... "our parents died and my eldest brother did my best to raise me even though he was a kid too," not really a father-son relationship. That even kind of tracks with Dick not leaving Gotham-- he doesn't feel the need to "leave the nest," so to speak, because it's not his father's city, it's just... Bruce's.

You get the sense that Bruce is a little bit more successful with the parenting aspect for Tim (although he does absolutely disavow any responsibility for him as Robin-- he's basically like, well, the small child *made me* let him fight crime, so it's not my fault), and doesn't do the weird catty stuff with him that he does with Dick. Thinking about it in terms of like, Dick is maybe around 20-21 himself at this point, and Bruce is like 31-2, it makes a lot more sense that their relationship would be Weird. You're not supposed to have a son who's only 10-12 years your junior. So Bruce is capable of being reasonably fatherly with Tim, who is actually of an appropriate age to be his child, but with Dick it's like... This uncomfortable "we are both adults but also I used to bring you to school in the morning but also you were not actually a child long enough with me for that not almost feel kind of fake so now I don't know how to relate to you" thing instead.

The moral of the story, I guess, is that BTAS Bruce probably should not have bribed whatever lawyer he bribed to let him adopt a traumatized child when he was himself still more or less a traumatized child.
