Michael's up on the wall. I have to look at this picture everyday to remember it wasn't just some wonderful dream. Can't wait to see Nye again next month!

Lots of fellow GO fans waiting at the stage door. CLK.ig made these fab stickers and gave them out to everyone 💜 And MS was so adorable.. he did a little jump of surprise when he walked out to find all of us waiting to meet him, even though it happens every night 🤭

(Pics by the lovely Courtney, whose camera was far superior to mine own)

But how long did they think we could walk, we could sing

Before our voices gave out and our limbs gave in

Necromancy is the funniest subclass to give Gale cuz you just know the party is just giving him the massive side eye after they meet Balthazar and Gale would have to defend himself by saying his mother is very much alive and that he has absolutely no intentions of putting her head in a jar.

So you'd kill to take that power from him? The others bound to the ritual? Ha, what's a handful of wretched servants? If they were anything like me when I was enslaved, they would be begging for death anyway.

Cannot stop thinking about how much Gortash would probably enjoy theatre/opera since he seems to enjoy all aspects of high society except the other people in high society.

Kaidos hates anything like that. However, he either attends a show either because he cannot resist Gortash’s manipulative puppy eyes or because he said no but Gortash does not accept the word ‘no’ and simply whittled him down.

Naturally, they have a box to themselves. Gortash uses it as ample opportunity to have his hand idly resting on his partner’s thigh the entire time.

Gortash is enthralled with the performance; Kaidos is much more concerned with watching the crowd and scoping out possible targets for later.

If Gortash used those opera glasses, Kaidos is definitely telling him how stupid he looks using them.

Kaidos is doing every petty thing he can to make sure Gortash does not invite him again.

"Eventually, it was between Cheryl and another actress, two very different ladies. We were still unclear about who and what we were looking for, but as she came back, she got simpler, which was nice, and that is probably what won us; that it became simpler and truer.

It was very easy in that role, especially when you see that strange language on the page, to get mannered or to get into a lot of game playing without substance. Cheryl started getting to the heart of what was going on between those two people when she came back."

something something come what may from moulin rouge has big halsin x tav energy something something

just READ the lyrics and you'll get what im saying here.... but also if you're too lazy to look them up im just gna drop the ones that make me the most insane in this context under the cut

"Never knew I could feel like this, like I've never seen the sky before"

"Listen to my heart, can you hear it sing? Telling me to give you everything. Seasons may change, winter to spring, but I love you until the end of time"

"Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place. Suddenly it moves with such a perfect grace. Suddenly my life doesn't seem such a waste"

"There's no moutain too high, no river too wide. Sing out this song, and I'll be there by your side. Storm clouds may gather and stars may colliade. But I love you, until the end of time"

Like, yes all the nature imagery in these specific lyrics are great and right up Halsins ally. But I dunno I think theres something in the devotion in these lyrics (and the rest of the song for that matter) that suits him.

The line Halsin has in game, the "My heart does not stir lightly. But it does now" resonates so much for me with this song. There's something about finding someone who lifts the fog for you (another one of his lines I believe) that I think this song captures very well

Especially talking about when Halsin and Tav split ways? This idea of no matter the distance, or for how long we are away from eachother I love you and that will not change. I go crazy insane about them wow

So Orin from Little Shop of Horrors is a sadistic dentist that takes pleasure in other people’s pain. And Orin from Baldurs Gate is a sadistic bhallspawn who takes pleasure in other people’s pain. Why is Orin such an evil name?

So I was thinking about that modern AU, trying to figure out how to incorporate FCG because robot (literally he's just a pastors son. Duh)

but for some reason my brain said "Ashton's service dog" first. Then I thought about Ashton needing a service dog because of brain stuff. THEN I thought about Ashton needing a service animal AND a mobility aid.

So I'm just living for Ashton in a wheelchair rolling through school. They've got the key to the elevator. They've obviously got a whole dog at school that people try desperately not to pet.

When someone decides to bully FCG (Francis Charles Grady) or Laudna, they get out of their chair to their full height. People freak because they didn't know he could walk or stand. Ashton just shrugs because "you know what they say about assuming"

And when Dorian shows up and asks about it not as tactfully as he probably meant to Ashton pops a wheely and is just like "what's sadder than an orphan with a wheelchair and a service dog? Unfortunately it didn't get me adopted. People just don't want their inspiration porn in house anymore I guess."

And they try to be chill. They try to avoid those harsh topics with their friends because they don't wanna be a bummer. It'd bring down the mood to say "sure I can walk but sometimes my spine is on fire and my calves are full of knives so I don't." It'd suck to say "I can walk fine until I can't." It's not relatable to say "my whole body hurts all the time and if I want to be able to do other things like think, I should probably be sitting."

Slowly their friends get them to understand that they don't have to put on a brave face for them. They don't have to pretend like it doesn't hurt. They don't have to pretend like it doesn't bother them. Their friends care about them. Hell they're even down to help if they can. Anything to make Ashton feel like they are wanted, that they're not a burden.

If I had a nickel for every time I associated a tragic female antagonist in a piece of fantasy media on which prom certainly does not exist with the song the ballad of Sara berry from 35mm I’d have two nickels
