The Golden Reign of Gortash -- Day 6
Alternate Universe / Dealer's Choice
I could NOT pass up the opportunity to preach 1920's Gortash to the masses. He's a bootlegger kingpin using his illegal booze money to fund his campaign for mayor.

Honestly, I'm very excited to find out what happened to Caleb and Beau, but specifically because Ludinus's current status is WILD for Caleb's epilogue in particular. It means his boyfriend is basically free and clear of everyone who has explicit material knowledge of the deal he made. It means the goal he planned to dedicate his life to is basically complete within six years. It means that virtually no one left on the Assembly cares much what kinds of changes he makes to Soltryce from here on out.
Ludinus is on the moon and probably not coming back, given the general expectations of the heroic fantasy genre, and the rest of it is a whole lot of "not Caleb's problem".
What does this man even do with the rest of his life?

no one ever fucking talk to me about the leviathan dlc and its implications. even thinking about it made me mad again. how do you create a story about artificial intelligence that is a direct consequence of its creator’s hubris (thinking that they, unlike more “primitive” species, could create robots to fix their problems that WOULDN’T rebel and kill them. only for the robots to rebel and kill them.) and also a reflection of their beliefs uninterrogated: that there is no possibility for peace between artificial and organic life, that it must all be extinguished for the sake of “peace”. how do you have a story where one of the main (paywalled. dlc.) squad members is the remnants of an empire that conquered and controlled other species in the same way the leviathans did, and met the exact same fate because their imperial power was an illusion created by the reapers to make them weaker, to make them easier to exterminate. how do you make a story about these cycles, about how the council IS repeating these cycles, they just do it in a “kinder” way, a way with a veneer of democracy while still holding the same kind of power the protheans did over their empire, taking the same corrupted seat and continuing to rule their even after they find out, in mass effect 1, that it was a time bomb of extinction. how do you write all of that. how do you write the geth/quarian conflict and give us an ending that proves that peace and reconciliation is not only possible, but the best option. and then. star child. and you can’t even fucking argue with him that his ideology is bullshit.

high cleric of katolis: an opeli mix
(ft my head canons abt her backstory and some sneaky future sorpeli)
Some mistakes get made, that's alright, that's okay, in the end, it's better for me | They spun her around on the damp old stones, spun away all her sorrow and pain | Never got to be wild like the horses, naive like a child | Baba yetu, yetu uliye, Mbinguni yetu, yetu amina! | With censor, candle, book and sword and ringing of the altar bell | I rarely go down there, the view's just so beautiful from here and I can see everybody at their worst points | Spinning that stone uphill again like atonement for a bygone sin | Burnt me at the stake, you thought I was a witch centuries ago, now you just call me a bitch | Take your gun and run away, hide, she gave you another day! | You knew this day would come, you aren't the only one | Nothing ever lasts forever, everybody wants to rule the world | The dog days are over, the horses are coming so you better run | We could use a little female common sense down on Pennsylvania Avenue | Working nine to five, what a way to make a living | She is fast and thorough and sharp as a tack, she is touring the facility and picking up slack | Someone told me there's no such thing as bad thoughts, only your actions talk | Sweet Ophelia, when young blood escapes vows that break go up, up away | What would they do if they found us out? | I ain't got no time [...] I still got shit to run, I could make it for you | All this heaven never could describe such a feeling | Hestia, thanks for everything
