// I should invade people's askboxes more... When did I become so damn shy? Never used to be.

// Like this post of you're completely okay with random, unprompted (often funny) asks in the inbox!

Unwanted Hiatus

// Turns out this week is not on my side. Washing machine broke down, pulled muscles in my back/shoulder, drama with my son's school and NOW my laptop WiFi adaptor driver just refuses to work. My laptop is falling apart as is and I just can't afford a new one whilst paying off a washing machine now, credit card AND trying to pay off the wedding.

// Not sure when I'll be online properly to do replies, since I hate replying on mobile. I'll be asking around for an Ethernet cable and hope that works, until then, be back soon. Hopefully, unless the cable option doesn't work either...

// Thanks to some incredibly lovely friends inspiring me - I'm bringing this character back!

// There's been some changes but the character largely remains the same, personality wise. Now with an added splash of darkness should some muses like to find out how that plays out...

// Some notes:- - I will be scrapping all threads I had back in October. Sorry if this disappoints anyone but I think it's just been too long. I'd like to start from scratch! - Osian is now open to ships should there be chemistry but he's still extremely reserved. - Osian is more a companion then a Tav really! He's no leader. Please don't assume he'll take the lead. He's more of a team-player. - As a companion for other Tav/Durge characters, or even Origins, he has several routes he can now go down. If people are interested in these different routes (much like companions in the game have a 'good' and 'bad' ending typically) please let me know! I'll go into more detail.

// I'm sorry for disappearing. I hope you guys will be so kind as to give Osian another chance!

"Ah- Happy New Years!"

"Do hope this year will be better than before!"

"...Oi Cate, Hasn't it been long since we last took a step here?"

"I...I h-honestly forgot, maybe we shoudn't say anything about it...Probably no one will notice."

I know that realistically you can only fit so many movies into a list of approximately 100, but I cannot take that "How many of tumblr's favorite movies have you seen?" list that's been going around seriously because there are some truly egregious omissions.

Some of it is very clearly recency bias, which makes me wonder if the op truly wasn't on here in 2013 or so, but you're telling me you made a list of "tumblr's favorite movies" that doesn't include Pacific Rim or Mad Max: Fury Road? Because, like, I was there, Gandalf.

What is sparkle plotting

[iron-hearts-ablaze]

// Astarion would jump into every argument, Shadowheart will team up on the one who started it, and Karlach will just try and be the peace keeper. Until she hears what started the argument, then she joins in 😆

// I'm sorry I've been quiet and slow with replies the last few days. Not been very well and by the time the evening rolls around I'm too exhausted and just want to play games.

// Tomorrow is Dydd Gŵyl Dewi (Saint David's Day) here in Wales, so I'm going to try and get the energy to bake Welsh cakes with my little ones. Then friends are over all evening so doubt I'll have the peace and quiet to concentrate on replies.

// Fingers crossed I'll be replying soon. I'm available for chats and plots, maybe short asks, just don't have the energy for much else. Sorry!

"I do not need an embrace! To give in to the heart's whims is to give into weakness. I cannot falter, I must not- No. No what are you doing? Enough! I said-!"

Despite the augmented, rather robotic voice, there was a tinge of softness in his tone. "Your sentiment has been received. You can let go now..."

Apparently, even in the year of Our Lord Two-thousand and Twenty-four, people need this simple chart explained to them at length

[hexedevolution]

// This.

// Dumbing them down to "they want to fuck" actually seems insulting. It's reducing this unfathomable love to something so ridiculously simple. Love can exist without the need for sex and I think Jayce and Viktor (alongside the likes of Samwise and Frodo from LOTR) show this. It's beyond sexual attraction. It's beyond brotherhood. It's beyond even our perception of love.

// They don't need to kiss, they don't need to demean themselves by calling each other 'boyfriends', they just need to be.

As much as I like Jayvik, I love the idea of their feelings being platonic. That forehead touch was one of the most affectionate gestures I've seen in the show, with them being together til the end of the line. They become one and the same, surpassing the boundaries of physical realm and I don't think that kind of love is confined within the boundaries of traditional understandings.
