The Rotunda and the Fresco

On the mural, all messere would say is, "Skyhold is her fortress. These are her actions."

#dragon age #dai gifs #solas #my gifs #this set took. forever. #basically had to play through half the game again lol #one thing I noticed while making this though.. #..is just how prominent the Black City is in his frescoes #..and the many pride demon like eyes surrounding it (!!!) #..like he's always watching it.. #interesting.. given how in the mural from the official teaser trailer the Dread Wolf seemed to break into the Black City 👀 #and I have a pretty strong guess why that is... #you know - besides the fact that *cough* the Black City is totally Arlathan where the false elven gods are imprisoned *cough* #but I actually think he needs to break in there for another reason 👀 #..involving a certain idol 👀👀👀 #anyway.. I always have to chuckle when I read the codex from this archivist calling Solas ''messere'' lol

I've seen people make human AUs and equate Winter's scavenger fascination with being like. a crazy cat person. and while that is really good and I do think Winter would and should be crazy about cats, I do think like... if you are going to give him an equivalent interest you gotta go nicher than that. Like, being a Cat PersonTM is a thing like half the population identifies at. You GOTTA go stranger. He needs to be regularly attending reptile conventions. He needs to daydream about owning a praying mantis. He needs to yell at underpayed PetSmart workers about how small the fish tanks are that they keep the bettas in. He needs to be offered the chance to hold a snake and he needs to talk to that snake like he's greeting the queen. He needs to show you photos of tarantulas please please please look at his pictures please of his tarantulas

#in my. non magic AUs I mean where the scavenger characters just kind of stop existing as opposed to like. the scavenger characters Are The #Animals because I think the ways that get handled can get pretty dicey really quickly especially depending on the like #type of animal one picks to do that with if you don't make them just The Dragons Instead which I think is more appropriate #wings of fire #wof #human wof #winter #winter wof #i don't mean to imply that fish are a weird pet to keep but i do mean to imply that like #being a cat person is not necessarily a personality trait so much as it is a like... preference of a person. but if somebody told me they #were a “fish person” the way they would identify as a dog/cat person I WOULD count that as a personality trait and I'm saying whatever that #trait is winter has it

merrill dragon age isn't The Character in terms of being the guy with the juiciest backstory details or protagonist material but she is The Person. The Heart. she was working on one of the most important researches of elven history and no one believed in her. not her keeper, her teacher and mother figure. nor her clan, the only family she's ever had. nor hawke's friends, the only people who were surrounding her for six years. the only person who can actually place their faith in her is hawke but if they don't she won't mind. she is used to it, being on her own. and, despite everything, she believes in people. she knows it matters. better than anyone.

she has never heard a nice word from fenris, but she still tries to cheer him up from time to time. she has never heard a nice word from anders either and she still feels for him. varric annoys her when he tries to distract her from the eluvian, but she appreciate it because she knows he means well. aveline refers to her work as senseless and potentially dangerous for the city, but she is still happy for her when she falls in love.

if hawke sides with mages in the last straw merrill is the first to support them. "I believe in you, hawke", she says, when everyone else is consumed by doubt. and then she's the only one who openly suggests sparing anders. so he can put things right.

she knows the feeling. when you're on your own and everyone thinks you're beyond salvation, undeserving of compassion or understanding. and this is the best she can offer for people she cares about: her unconditional faith, her sympathy, a second chance. the things she was desparately looking for and never had. she believes in people because she knows: there's no one else to believe in them

#going through my screenshots and every time i see 'i believe in you hawke' i want to explode #she's an unacknowledged genius but also she's the brightest person in kirkwall with the heart of gold #and i wish we talked about her smartness and willingness to discuss and defend her opinions more #but she's also genuinely such a good person. not in the 'haha silly pretty and clueless naive girl' way #but in the 'thoughtful and caring and compassionate woman who tries to learn from her mistakes and deepest regrets' way #her banters are full of these themes. believing and second chances and atonement and it just makes me feel things #if i were to put it all in this post it would be practically endless because i really lack the ability to shut up #spiraling back into my merrill brainrot. i love her i love her i love her so much #merrill #dragon age

scott and joel are good rivals too because they both are sort of the catalysts of their own demises (particularly in secret life) but scott moreso in a tactical self-martyring way and joel in a “unlucky and with poor risk assessment” way

#secret life spoilers #scott smajor #joel smallishbeans #secret life #life series smp #mcyt #dragon rambles #scott is too good at risk assessment someone put this guy in more situations. 3rd life it up make some enemies #them teaming up would be so funny. would joel finally take scott down or would scott aid joel in capturing success… #i also think (PURELY C! WISE) something interesting about scott presenting himself as one of the nicest players #but being a little too cold and calculated about it. vs joel (an often antagonizing heel) being pretty dang supportive when given the chance #like he’s loyal and kind in an almost clumsy way. like accidentally showing gem his secret chest and he’s just like ‘uh ignore that’ #scott plays the social game like competitive chess and joel plays it like a pvp sport. does this make sense

ok maybe i dont hate ibis paint

Pearl of the Realm [2, 1.5, 1]

Lucerys returns from his travels with new confidence and clothing that shocks nobility and the commonwealth. Fashionable members of the court swamp their tailors with demands, and the constant buzz around Lucerys the Lovely makes him Prince of the People. Coincidentally, Aemond develops chronic nosebleeds that plague him whenever his nephew is in the room.

The corset above is based off of a gold and white pearl set. This evolved into an AU about Luke gaining a sense of self + allies for Rhaenyra through scandalous clothing. He also incapacitates his Uncle Aemond, who probably has an iron deficiency from all the nosebleeds the maesters can’t explain.

A memorable incident: After offending Lucerys by insinuating his clothing is “inappropriate for a Prince”, and “looks like it was stolen from a Dornish whore”, Aemond attempts to apologize with a string of pearls. His timing is, of course, awful, and he stumbles into his chambers right when Lucerys is bathing. Misunderstandings ensue when he tries to shove the gift at him but ends up flinging it across the room; Luke assumes it’s an elaborate assassination attempt and leaps out of the bath, sprinting down the halls of the Red Keep with Aemond in hot pursuit. Aegon laughs so hard he cries.

#lucemond #aemond x lucerys #lucerys valeryon #house of the dragon #aemond targaryen #my art #Aemond must have a degregadtion kink or smt bc he is always getting humiliated in this #he is EXTREMELY obvious. that eye contact is not going anywhere and Alicent is at her wits end #i think lucerys is oblivious about some things but mostly just enjoying himself #also i used a lot of Pinterest references for this and there are so many other outfits not in this post #i think Luke in this specific shade of blue is just super pretty #and of course he has red and black accents. it just makes sense ya know #anyway if you ask Aemond the devil wears not Prada but the most delicate and intricate of outfits the Westeros cant deal with #I am very pro Aemond w a man bun btw

nishiki takes kiryu to the disco to pick up Hot Singles In Their Area and kiryu FINALLY takes an interest in someone. guess who it is lol

(click for better quality bc DAMN they got crunched)

#poor nishiki got a curveball wingmanning assignment on the first try. c'mon kyodai she's YAKUZA you couldn't've picked anyone else? #kiryu.. the political ramifications.... what if she's omi kiryu c'mon. he's still gonna cheer him on though #and hey perhaps nishiki and goromi could bond over shared love of koi no disco queen. which they have in my head #i hope to make a followup to this with them dancing and actually having fun. i just wanted to show the sitcom nature of this first though < #IF I'M A SUCKER FOR ANYTHING IT'S 80S GOROMI OKAY #she's. very pretty to me. can never say it enough #technically i drew these like. 2-3 months ago. but now they're here. refurbished #god i hope this shit's legible. anyway #rgg #ryu ga gotoku #skrunkart #yakuza #ykz #like a dragon #yakuza 0 #kazumaji #majima goro #kiryu kazuma #nishikiyama akira #goromi #goro majima #kazuma kiryu #akira nishikiyama #sagawa's there in a thought bubble but he doesn't deserve a tag. stinkman #no one's THAT in character because that's just what disco does to a mf. ups the personality (<- excuse because i thought this was funny) #nishiki really strikes me as a 'you gotta go out with women and be cool on dates' type. i feel like kiryu's slower approach to this #kinda thing would be seen as something to nudge him out of. like 'he just needs to go out more' or 'he just needs some tips/support' #well meaning but really allo/heteronormative. sorry nishiki fans i love him too dw #kiryu may be dense about some things but i think he's just Not That Compelled #but oh what goromi does to a mf

this all being said about the light dragon and how it is definitely the biggest highlight of totk (for me at least), i Do think a lot of the reaction to it Is dependent on botw and zelda's characterisation from that game... a lot of which is kind of lacking in totk because of her more passive role (e.g. you are told about her + see her actions after they have already happened)

like. if you didn't already really like zelda and were sold on her relationship with link (and not even just from a shipping zelink perspective, like. just UNDERSTANDING they have a strong bond from everything they've gone through together) then i'm not sure if any of that stuff in totk would've hit as hard as it did. the game does very little to build on what we already know about them, which i think is both a letdown to new players (which. i am not sure why they are playing the sequel before botw, but that is how totk acts most of the time lmao) and returning ones, and as time goes on it's become harder for me to blame people for not caring for it as much.

what a truly odd game

#which also makes it bizarre that totk treats itself like its Not a sequel. even though it is at the same time #ugh the names are escaping me but i am pretty sure this is a thing thats happened in other Sequel games too #just acting like the first one never happened or only when its convenient. stuff like that #i would loveeee to know how bad covid hit totks plot development or whatever. if anything. else they may have been planning #theyve gone on record saying that apparently the plan was for zelda to Always have turned into a dragon #and assumedly the beginning/ending parallel as well (eg hands and link catching her) #but i have to assume or at least HOPE that the buildup may have been stronger. idk man its so strange truly #ANYWAY SORRY FOR RAMBLING but i do find this discussion intriguing. and i LIKED totk even despite my criticisms #its genuinely some of the most fun ive had in a video game ever and creating content for it and talking about it has made me very happy #this being said. there are some choices that were made and i do not and likely will not ever understand them #because they said nah we're done now. bye <3 #like oh okay. thank you aonuma. can i at least have wind waker on switch now please #personal.txt
