Ansilvund

RATING: 6/10

Here we are. The place that re-ignited my passion for Skyrim’s dungeons. A long and mildly troublesome to navigate dungeon full of draugr and mages, hellish for even a high level character. It contains no puzzle doors, nor trapped chests, but instead an interesting narrative of a bereaved wife taking it out on others after her husband was killed and ‘defiled’ in the war. Some portions of it are claustrophobic; others are fairly open. It’s definitely an oddball dungeon. If you’re playing through it, the final boss might go through the floor on death- which is annoying when your way out is a key in her pocket.

In exchange for all your effort, you get the unique weapon Ghostblade. A translucent ancient Nord sword that does 3 unblockable extra damage. In hindsight, it wasn’t a very good dungeon, nor a fun one, and the reward only does a paltry 17 damage per hit without improvements.

But the thing that got me going was how no quests led into it, and it had no greater purpose. It was just there. It didn’t even have a word wall. But someone put time and thought and care into it, made a custom character with her own storyline, and used draugr in a unique way. And furthermore, it’s one of the only dungeons I can name off the top of my head to use crush traps. Not just once, but repeatedly! And it wasn’t used in anything!

I hope that, if nothing else, my ratings will make people want to discover their own version of ‘Ansilvund’.

making spot conlon and the brooklyn newsies a group of newsgirls is genuinely such an inspired choice, and i need this to be the default for every professional production from now on

love the bear claw mark beside Halsin's bed in the Elfsong Tavern- implying he fucking turned into a giant ass bear inside

[von-karmas-a-bitch]

it will never stop being insane to me that possibly the most accurate adaptation of sherlock holmes (minus any explicit mention of drugs) is from Gay Lawyer Visual Novel Spinoff Series: Let's Go To Meiji Japan and bc it wasn't public domain yet, the localised versions decided to call him fucking HERLOCK SHOLMES

Ouh. I really like how out of all the antagonists in the series, Prism's motivations (and her turning to Zoraxis) are directly influenced by Phoenix's track record. She has the most personal beef with the agent, though it's a little ironic that her TK implant helped the agent's success. If it weren't for Prism, Phoenix wouldn't be the legend that they are known for.

...Except...That's minimizing Phoenix's own ingenuity and skill with the implant, isn't it? It's a useful tool, yes! But in the end, it's just a tool. Phoenix was able to use it in unique ways, and that's not counting whatever else Phoenix has to do in the moment without TK. If it weren't for Phoenix's own efforts (and their strange ability to not Die), Prism wouldn't be forced to take revenge.

They're their own self-made people, but inevitably they left such a huge impact on each other before the third game...and if Prism wasn't the one who personally added the implant in Phoenix's head, then they haven't even interacted in person!

It could be seen as a little tragic, and it sorta is--Prism's desire for revenge is a little misplaced (and, yes, it is bolstered by Zor when she switches to their side). For all we know, Phoenix never intended to be the villain in Prism's story. But Prism's frustrated and angry and devastated about being reduced to the One Project she made. She just wanted to make something bigger than herself.

And it's really nice to see Phoenix help her once she recognizes that Zor's been using her all this time...even if it takes some time for Prism to really let them help her.

It takes the combination of their unique skills, brainpower, and their eventual trust in one another to destroy Zor's volcano kinesium base. Prism gets saved by the person she thought made her dreams impossible, and in return, Phoenix gets saved in the one IEYTD ending where they're not declared legally dead. I feel like that's something interesting? Because this is also the one finale where Phoenix has an active ally working with them close to their side (...as close as Prism and Phoenix could get, anyway).

Well. Anyway. What was I talking about? Enemies who are closely intertwined with one another's journeys end up becoming each other's most important allies? Okay, yeah. Let's go with that.

Love love love it when people draw art of ancient Romans and I can recognize the individual faces from ancient statues/texts/frescoes. Love pointing at one of them like that's his chin! That's his eyebrows! That's my guy!!

[spotsupstuff]

Let's say we hand Five Pebbles The Rot and just say "this is your beautiful future creation", how insane do you think he'd go. Also what is everyone's opinions on slugcats

he'd be scared

present a man with seemingly unstoppable slow agonizing death and he ain't gon be chillax with it

LTTM: First, I have *got* to catch you up on some basic information about those wonderful creatures! So my opinions wouldn't exist in complete vacuum, of course, haha! Here goes- and she proceeded to ramble about the "basics" for 20 hours

The frustration of KNOWING there is media out there with the very specific tone you want to write into your own stories and wanting to consume that media for inspiration/immersion/the joy of experiencing art on the same wavelength as your own but not being able to FIND it

Hard disagree the way the young justice cartoon said fuck it lets make sportsmaster into our bootleg deathstroke for absolutely no reason especially considering slade is also in the show is hilarious

More shifter au nonsense bc I'm procrastinating on making the schedule. Your shift isn't decided by genetics in this verse. I'm borrowing an idea from a published trilogy that's not a shifter thing and turning it into a shifter thing. Solely to give Jason more trauma (sorry Jason >:3c)

But this is just the beginning of a cute dick & tim & Jason batbro moment

Dick has his nose in a fresh mug of tea, inhaling the steam as deep as he can to help his clogged sinuses, when he hears the thunder of footsteps. He glances up just as Tim slams into the kitchen, eyes wide and chest heaving. Tim lights up at the sight of his brother, grinning mischievously, and shifts to scurry to a hiding spot mere seconds before Jason appears, breathing just as heavily but scowling. His cheeks are pink, his ears are bright red. Dick cackles internally, careful not to give away the game

"Where. Is. He?" he growls. "I'm gonna fucking murder him."

Dick tilts his head and takes a serene sip of his tea. "Who?"

"Playing stupid doesn't look good on you," Jason sneers, eyes roaming around the kitchen. He pauses on Dick, and they narrow. "...your sweatshirt is moving."

"It's called breathing?"

Jason stares at him for a beat, then quick as a snake, he lunges for Dick. Tim scrambles out of his hood with a chittering laugh, nails pricking the back of Dick's neck and making him wince. His two brothers are careful not to jostle him too much in the mad scramble of cat-and-mouse, so Dick continues to lean against the counter amidst the chaos, hiding his smile behind his mug.

"You little rat!" Jason grabs Tim over and over again, but he just slips through his grip like a noodle. "I swear to God, if you don't - fuck! Did you just fucking bite me?!"

Tim yawns right in his face, showing off his tiny sharp teeth. Dick gives in and laughs out loud, wheezing and snorting, and laughing even harder when Jason glares at him. Tim just flops over in Jason's hands, seemingly bored with their game now. And secure in the knowledge that Jason won't actually do anything to him.

"What did he do?" Dick asks.

"Like you don't know!"

"I don't, actually."

Because there are so many possibilities.

Jason fings Tim at him. He's gentle about it, but Tim screeches in surprise anyway. Dick catches his brother one handed and slings him over his shoulder.

"He fucking changed my modulator to - to - !" He lets out an inarticulate noise.

Tim shifts back, clinging to Dick and laughing loudly. Dick nearly ends up on the floor, staggering under the sudden weight. Tim doesn't care, wrapping his arms around his shoulders and legs around his stomach in a koala cling.

"Animalese," Tim wheezes around his laughs. Jason growls and lunges again, only to be twarted by Dick turning so he's between them.

"Yeah. That. Now hand the rat over so I can kill him."

"He's more of a weasel," Dick tells him.

"It literally doesn't matter."

Tim laughs again, and there's a hint of a chitter. Dick smiles fondly at the sound. There was a time there he was worried he'd never hear that particular laugh again. Fondness flickers over Jason's expression before he forces it into a scowl. Dick rolls his eyes, but he just feels warm all over.

the autistic urge to collect small hard objects

new idea:

two clone troopers who accidentally acquired the same name and accidentally painted their armour the same. they have existential and identity crises upon meeting each other.
