Huh, I didn't even realize it'd been a year since BG3 came out until I opened tumblr this morning. Kinda wild. I didn't think much of the game's release: I like Larian's games, and I like the BG series. I wasn't ever going to skip the game, but I didn't think I'd play it at launch because I was busy working on a novel in 2023 and not doing well financially.
Thankfully, circumstances left me with a little bit of extra money last year just before launch and it meant I could spend on a video game. I needed a pick-me-up after said 2023 novel failed to go anywhere, and BG3 was right there. Like most CRPGs, I played it in basically every moment of free time that I had and did as much as I possibly could in one playthrough.
It's so odd how these small happenstances can snowball into coming back to fandom, finding some friends I might've never met otherwise, and writing a lot of fanfiction along the way. I'll probably have something more interesting to say/share when it's the 14th, AKA when I sat down and wrote my first fic for this fandom.
Anyways, it's been a lot of fun and I'm looking forward to more years to come 💜

deeply consumed with Pokémon au thoughts atm (cannot, I stress, can NOT start another project. have the next 39 things I need to write already lined up with 4 more wips on top can NOT) but Aaron who goes on his trainer journey as a means to escape home only to gradually learn he doesn’t have that much interest in battling and would rather work as a ranger, rather care for them and preserve habitats and help treat wild Pokémon
vs Kevin born of one of the Elite 4 (potentially even champion Kayleigh) and a powerful gym leader in his own right Wymack who has had his partners by his side since he was no age (one each a gift from his parents but also taken to catch his first while he was still in single digits) who is a battling prodigy one of the best of his age and yet he’s learned all this in the safety of the gym or under the guidance of his parents so he’s terrified of going out into the world even with his Pokémon
Kevin’s ruthless strategy in battle but his fear of the world vs Aaron’s insatiable hunger for freedom and exploration but his disenchanted exhaustion at a world that prioritises and glorifies violence over all the other relationships they could have with Pokémon

Are we gonna get any post 24 hours blurbs like 👰🏼♀️ or anything else? 👀👀👀
definitely going to get some blurbs out about them soon!! as for 👰♀️…. well, it’s certainly something that could be requested! ☺️🖤 i definitely don’t see them getting their shit together that much so for a while though haha. like years in the future maybe? reader wouldn’t even let eddie consider it until they’d both graduated with their degrees.
