She was about to follow when she noticed a familiar figure standing in the shadow of the doors. Alistair was making himself busy by riffling through the pile of papers clutched in his arm, as if to give her the opportunity to walk past him without acknowledgement, if she wanted. “I see you’re keeping well,” she said instead. He looked up, caught, and cleared his throat. “Lady Rosslyn.” “Ser Alistair.” There was a pause. “I am well, thank you. Um.” He frowned. And you?” He ran a hand through his hair so it stuck up at the back, sneaking a shy look at her from the corner of his eyes. “Are you… alright?” Rosslyn snorted. “How do I look?” He looked at her properly, then, with a care that squeezed on her chest, taking in every detail of her appearance from the tangles in her hair to the bloodstains that mired in the crevices of her armour. “Honestly?” he asked. “You look exhausted. But,” he added, perhaps noticing he had taken a step closer to her, “Uh, you seem a little bit more graceful than usual.” His eyes flicked to the white flower in her hair. Her hand followed the movement before she could check the impulse. “You have a terrible sense of humour.” Alistair shrugged. “It can’t be that bad, if it’s made you smile.”

I commissioned the fantastic and amazing @allenvooreef to create a picture based on this upcoming little snippet from my AU fic, The Falcon and the Rose, and I can’t stop staring at it. It’s just so pretty. If you get a chance to commission her go do it because she is lovely, and as you can see her art is absolutely beautiful. thank  you so much!

In the DAO video We Will Rock You i was very curious about that magic fx. Is that a mod? I looked through your list of mods you use and I am not seeing it. If it is please tell me.

Oh hei, thank you for watching that video and noticing those effects! Alas, they're all done in post-editing after I watched some tutorials on how to create the Dr. Strange shield effects. I would really like to mod those into the game but I hit a wall of not knowing how!

i've started looking at weight and health the way i look at class and income and it really puts a lot of things into a new perspective.

let me explain: in america at least, the lower class have significantly worse health outcomes, even when accounting for other factors. just being poor is enough to make your overall health worse. we don't know that being fat makes your health directly worse, like the data just isn't there, but for a moment, pretend it does.

imagine going to the doctor with a health problem and the doctor looking at your chart and saying well, this problem will be less severe if you go up an income bracket. have you thought about becoming rich? it would really help. start by saving a little money every month.

ridiculous, right?? very few people successfully go from working class to rich, it just doesn't happen on a large scale in society. maybe for a time you pick up some overtime hours, spend a little beyond your means, and appear rich. but eventually you burn out, your car needs to be repaired, and you return to being working class.

we do have this data: only some people can successfully lose large amounts of weight, and only a tiny fraction of people who lose that weight actually keep it off for more than a year. telling people to lose weight for their health is just absurd because they almost certainly can't do it any more than they can double their income for their health.

and yet i see it everywhere. a little poster in my work breakroom tells me to improve my blood pressure by losing weight! a psa on the radio says you need to take care of your heart by losing weight! we can't even conclusively prove that weight is the cause rather than just correlated with a lot of these problems but here it is offered anyway: have you tried being rich?
