"Pity me not because the light of day"
Pity me not because the light of day
At close of day no longer walks the sky;
Pity me not for beauties passed away
From field and thicket as the year goes by;
Pity me not the waning of the moon,
Nor that the ebbing tide goes out to sea,
Nor that a man’s desire is hushed so soon,
And you no longer look with love on me.
This have I known always: Love is no more
Than the wide blossom which the wind assails,
Than the great tide that treads the shifting shore,
Strewing fresh wreckage gathered in the gales:
Pity me that the heart is slow to learn
What the swift mind beholds at every turn.
Edna St. Vincent Millay

so there is this thing I've speculated over many times but I never mathed it out before so:
This tells us that Blaine was born at some point between 6/4/1980 and 5/4/1981 (I assume it's not his birthday bc I feel like he would have mentioned it but he also might not)
We also learn this:
Now this seems to slightly conflict with this -
-but I'm actually more leaning towards the first one, because Angus was actually sane then (by McDonough standards) then and it's a legal "document", while the other is a "Brother Love" doing a sermon.
Also, we can see on screen, that the will was recorded on March 4th 2012 - so minus 35 years, that actually means that she's been working for him since before Blaine was born (1977 or 1978)
Which would really mean she was there all of Blaine's life. This is also kind of supported for me by this:
Now...in present day, Blaine mostly refers to his father by his name, using words like dad or pops etc sometimes for the sake of it. But...assuming that he's actually quoting something he remembered saying at some point (which it sure sounds like in that scene), then he must have been pretty young to still have referred to his father as "daddy" - especially considering Angus' long absence and generally...low tolerance for "weakness" or sentimentality. I feel like he wouldn't have humoured that for long but that's just speculation. But my point is that Blaine would have been pretty young at that point which supports the earlier theory that Frau Bader really was there for most of his life.
The thing is, personally I always speculated that she was hired because Angus was barely home/didn't really spend time with his son and because his mother was too mentally ill/traumatised to take care of a child. but. Unless Blaine has a secret mysterious older sibling we never hear about, Bader cannot possibly have been hired as a nanny. Which kind of makes me wonder whether she was supposed to be a kind of "caretaker" for Blaine's mother before that. (Or whatever else her connection to Angus might be)

Update from Val's campaign, for the folks tuning in at home: we're trying to save this outpost town that our failed skill challenge KIND OF fucked up to hell and back, and on the way out on an errand, Val stopped to ask one of the guards we've interacted with a few times for some info. Now, he's a little younger, and a bit of a nervous guy, but APPARENTLY he's got a thing for big muscular tiefling ladies specifically because while she's talking to him, literally the ENTIRE rest of the party realizes that he's more nervous than normal and is being too-helpful to cover it up. Val, unfortunately, does not notice this, and only finds out when the rest of the party begins mercilessly teasing her. Now she's got all of them talking about how hot she is and she is just like, "CAN WE PLEASE GO KILL SOMETHING PLEASE??" while trying very hard not to let the rest of them see how embarrassed she is.
My girl has absolutely no shame, except people expressing genuine attraction to her. Then she wants to evaporate.

strengths and abilities
supernatural strength and accelerated healing - due to her age and that she was the first human turned to culebra, kisa is stronger than other culebras. as long as she keeps a steady diet of blood, she will maintain her strength and heal quickly. pouring blood directly onto a wound will heal it even more rapidly.
shapeshifting and wings - her culebra form is pretty monstrous. yellow eyes with slit, snake pupils. scales across her face and body. claws. fangs that unfold from her jaw and a forked tongue. she also has the unique ability to fly with wings that unfold from her back.
illusion casting and telepathy - if welcomed in or if a person's mind is weakened, she can communicate with them telepathically and even show visions/illusions. a closer distance and more frequently communicating with strengthen the bond. culebras can also disguise themselves as their victims, it's unclear in the show whether this is shapeshifting or a form of illusion but i've decided for canon on this blog that it is an illusion everybody except for the culebra casting will see.
invulnerability and immortality - kisa is a thousand years old and the first human to be turned into a culebra when the lords crossed over to this dimension from xibalba. unlike other culebras (who are turned when bitten and pumped with venom) she was created through a sacrificial ritual. she was thrown into a pit of snakes bit her and slithered down her throat, cursing her into what she is. for this reason, she is more invulnerable than regular culebras. there is no known method for killing her.
venom - culebra venom has the ability to turn humans and paralyse other culebras. it is a choice when biting whether venom is administered
weaknesses
sunlight - kisa will burn in the sunlight, however she will regenerate once out of the sun.
dismemberment - the only known way to put her down is to dismember her and scatter the pieces. however, if put back together and given blood she will regenerate.
snake/culebra venom - this will paralyse her for a time
cold temperatures - she is cold blooded and therefore her system will begin to shut down in cold temperatures. once she warms up she will be fine, but if kept in cold enough temps she will enter a type of hibernation state.

Her teams are here. Or.... Everyone that's left from them. It took a bit of explaining, that "no, just because someone doesn't look human in the slightest doesn't mean that they're a pokemon", but other than that, people have been settling in... Well... Of course they're homesick too. But alright, at least. And the gods and fans can't reach them here. No weather to send them up in flame. She actually knows that they're safe.

❛ A monster knows another when they meet one... ❜ Pretense must always be kept up in front of a human, but this man is not one. What is he, though? You aren't quite sure. He looks humanoid, but many of you do... even now you look as if you are a human. The village locals don't even scorn him as they would another human outsider that walked around. Though, he does not belong still. A strange creature that just wandered into this little place? ❛ Ahah~ How strange... You are rather cute, though... Ahh, it makes me want to baby you. What has brought you to this cursed little place, my dear? ❜ sc. @tokushuei (juggler)
