I'm so sad that both Louise Brooks and Theda Bara got knocked out in this round 😭

Only a few of the beautiful women whose photos graced my walls when I was a teenager remain, and chances get higher with every round that they will be up against one another.

:(

some romance charts that i found abandoned in my files and decided to finish up (hardest part was choosing a single song my playlists are too long send help)

[base template]

#so like. these were supposed to just be the base template and then i got possessed #thedas girlies have dao inspired sheets & the other 3 i just went wild with lol #any XXXX on the sliders is meant to block that amount off/say they're cool w anywhere on the unblocked bar #i've been staring @ these for too many hours so they're getting posted even if more typos can be found. ignore them #literally nobody zoom in on ellana's vallaslin she pissed me off #i didn't want to add it but she's not complete without it so i legally had to #i imagine she has full body writing but i'm NOT doing that. your arm is bare for today queen #graphic #ch: maeve sommers #ch: aphrodite #ch: katerina morozova #ch: valeriya de clairmont #ch: meredith cousland #ch: ellana lavellan #graphic: maeve #graphic: aphrodite #graphic: katerina #graphic: valeriya #graphic: meredith #graphic: ellana

Garahel: wait, you've not been with anyone at all after all these years? Isseya: no Garahel: really?! I thought you and Calien maybe- Isseya 'I'm too aroace for this shit': absolutely fucking not

#dragon age #the last flight #isseya #garahel #aroace warden queen of my heart #its just hands down my favourite da novel #it really captures the true horror of the blight in a way that origins doesn't #its just constant war day in and day out for years with no end in sight #origins doesn't really show just how Strange the fifth blight was because it was so short #we're told that there's a debate among scholars over whether it really was a blight #but the games never really illustrate WHY that doubt exists #the last flight nails the essence of how devastating a blight is and even then #its one of the shorter ones #like the first blight lasted nearly two centuries and the second one was 90 years #the third (15 years) and fourth blights (10 years) shows that thedas collectively got better at fighting blights #likely because the wardens got better at recognising the signs and preempting them #and the leaders of thedas learned to trust the wardens. if they said 'blight's coming' then they responded #cailan and celene both proved that in origins #i'm babbling now but last flight is so good guys

A few shots of Theda Bara playing the title role in the 1917 silent movie CLEOPATRA. I'm reading about Cleopatra at the moment in Kara Cooney's WHEN WOMEN RULED THE WORLD: 6 QUEENS OF EGYPT, so she's very much on my mind. If you're interested in the female rulers of ancient Egypt, I'd definitely recommend this book. It goes into detail about how they rose to power, the challenges they faced because of their gender and how the patriarchy usually tried to take credit for their achievements and wipe out all trace of them after they were gone. Like a lot of what you read about the ancient world, some of it's guesswork, but the arguments are convincing and seem to fit the evidence. I ❤️ this subject, so might get around to writing a proper review when I'm done. As for the movie pics, I get that Elizabeth Taylor's take on the character is better known, but I think Theda looks more iconic.

Alistair is smart; he just doesn’t want people to realize it. I want to call him king for that, but…. sgjdhdkekkd THAT’S HIS WHOLE PROBLEM.

#dragon age: origins #text post #alistair #literally just a thought i had #bc i’ve gotten in the habit of calling ppl king/queen #and then i was talking abt Alistair like that #and was like….. WAIT #i am not as funny as alistair #tho. imagine: calling him king in the slang way #maybe b4 the father reveal #the man would sweat buckets #and the idea amuses me #i wanna see it in 1 o them modern person in thedas fics #but i am not funny enough to write it

i feel so so so bad for elspeth coming back to ferelden and finding out half her fucking people went and got themselves blood sacrificed for a fucking darkspawn magister :/

#tay plays dai #oc: elsepth #she really left for 5 minutes and the whole entirety of thedas blew up huh #A PART OF ME IS LIKE OK. MAYBE FERELDEN ISNT AS EFFECTED BC HER PEOPLE LIKE... HAVE BRAINCELLS #and with nate and oghren taking over for her it cant be THAT bad. or maybe just nate idk #but god. shes going to send the fucking MEANEST letter ever penned by man to the wiesshaupt after this #ik the HoF has only been a warden for a decade but the way they are the Only bitch who knows what theyre doing at any given point #is so sad honestly. elspeth isnt even that smart like cmon guys the bar is in the deep roads #ashara does end up recruiting the wardens but like. with contempt and malice in her heart bc she thinks theyre SO fucking stupid #and wouldve exiled them if they werent so crucial.... and tbh at this point im thinking elspeth would also be like 'yeah fair'#she literally decided NOT to marry ALISTAIR FUCKING THEIRIN because of her respect for the wardens and THIS is how they repay that???#she couldve been QUEEN but instead she has to babysit these people who take the credit for her and ali ending the blight singlehandedly....#sigh. tbh at the end of the day fuck bioware bc MY wardens would never be this cringe

Potential Evi redesign sketch

#im also considering changing his name to Kialthash #Kial for short #and his title to King of all that shatters #the other 3 characters would also be getting new names for their Dreamland selves #Evan would be the Warlord of Rot Otor'Dar #Evelyn becomes the Priestess of what once was Asatess #and Evla the queen of the writhing Quothwri #but i love the goofy evi/evan/Evelyn/evla name dynamic joke #but rhis one does give them alll their own thedas style name that like #relevant to their characters instead of just #evi and evla having ones that are vague and inaccurate descriptions of them

I also think DA could be improved if Maric was the one who got to mysteriously die of mysterious illness for Reasons™ instead of Rowan but I also recognise that there would be no Alistair if this happened

#and i don't know if i could like thedas if alistair isn't in it #but also Rowan the tragically widowed queen with a young son. and her bestie/old flame/crush Loghain RIGHT THERE
