Whenever I finally get all of the Murderbot Diaries in physical book form I'm going to go through and count how many times Murderbot says "or whatever"/"or something" bc this bitch doesn't know shit and that's funny as hell, I hope nobody has already done this before

#Murderbot #The Murderbot Diaries #KUG babbles #it fr knows absolutely jack or shit about everything all the time and i love this stupid flippant little bastard

"[Resurrecting me] was the least you could do after dropping a building on me."

Buddy, you planned to leave my exsanguinated corpse lying there in the woods - if I hadn't had other people in the party that was game over. I don't think you have grounds to talk about "the least" one can do after accidentally killing people.

#*Durge* is being the nicer murderer #That's where you're at in this comparison #(I do so love this absolute rat bastard) #petty murder boyfriends #/astarion #babbling #playthrough shenanigans

So there was this really terrible review of The Borgias back in the day that complained about Jeremy Irons, of all people:

“Irons, as lean and elegant as men are made, exudes passion aplenty, but that passion burns with the steely flame of the North, not with Latin fire”

Yeah.

Anyway, when I was writing a paper on the Borgias for school, I vented about that specific sentence to my friends. In retrospect, though, I'm kind of grateful for it, because "steely flame of the North" ended up just entering our collective vocabulary for any number of occasions. It's like:

Friend: I think [other friend] hates X even more than you do.

Me, trying to sound neutral: Possibly.

Friend: Well, maybe. You do burn with the steely flame of the North.

i will spoil this much about what caused lamarr and demersa to become completely estranged until later in life: it does Not involve lamarr stinging her, or them attacking or hurting one another in any way, or an accidental perma-but-then-not-murder, or one being responsible for an accident that affected the both, and now there's a grudge, nor one of them cowarding out on the other in something, nor does it involve any kind of groanworthy or incredibly contrived misunderstanding being held for way too long despite ample opportunity for clarification.

in other words: you're probably gonna have a hard time actually predicting what it is, because it's like, it's own whole story that plays out, so best to not operate on the assumption of answers that feel a little too obvious or squintworthy

#oc babble #the 'neither of them did anything wrong to the other or even thinks the other did anything to them' level could not be higher #because i like to be a lil more creative when weaving my tragedy. situations where there really was no fucking winning. #and now we just gotta deal with it #there is one pretty focal bastard figure involved i still have to design him oh god #we will want to grind his bones into powder #demersa #lamarr

Got my hands on some good clay and made everyone's favorite grandpa (besides Pongorma) Old Wayne! I wasn't sure about how I liked him until I painted him. But the scrap of navy blue cloth sealed the deal and I'm super happy with how he came out.

I was worried he'd be top heavy with that big-ass head of his so his skull is mostly aluminium foil and armature wire with the thinnest layer of clay over it. His tail is solid clay to help weigh his butt down.

A family photo. Who knows if that Wayne will ever become Old Wayne. If not... what will he become?

I misplaced the black posterboard I usually use to take pics of my sculptures, so bear with the black sheet until I either find it or get a new one. Sorry about that!

I got 4 hours of sleep last night but my guy fucked it up last night, wish more musicians would elbow drop their keyboards mid song

#Dumb babbles #Jonny manchild and the poor bastards #My brother and I drove like 3 hours there and 3 hours back worth it #Jonny is very cool and chill. Came up to my bro and was like “Cool shirt!” (It was his merch) #Remembered us from the house show we went to in March which was really neat #Wish I had caught that elbow drop but tbh I was vibing #Last time we saw them it was just him on keys

Moss is so sweet to Astarion and he fr doesn't deserve it he literally dotes on that lil cunt like he's a poorly behaved cat

1. One of the best things that has ever happened to you?

thanks for the ask!

Testosterone. HRT. Full stop, no questions asked. It is genuinely life saving. I never thought I would want to live this much and it’s been beautiful. I remember what my face looks like now. I look in the mirror and smile. I’m hairy and happy and I did not think it could be like this. So yeah.

#worlds babbles #I remember the first time I met another trans masc person who was on t and I was like #oh I could do that #like actually #and now it’s illegal but I’m a little bastard and my parents are cool so I will not be stopped

[panda-of-the-trash]

I am such a good older sibling

Other people being concerned about my non-speaking moments when I'm trying so hard not to worry about it because I don't even know what the cause of it is half the time is very very annoying

Yes, a week of being non-speaking sounds like a long time, but I have no choice if it chooses to last that long, in the same way I have no choice when it chooses to start or how it presents itself, so please don't say things that make me feel like shit over something that I have tried (several times!) and failed (several times!) to receive help for.

#happy's babblings #i know what it is and i know that it's inconvenient but i literally have no other choice but to deal with it when it comes #same with my fibro or CFS flares #believe me i have spoken to doctors and i have researched extensively #and the likely answer is autism but no one will test me for it becauze i am functional (ish) and dont appear to meet the criteria #even though i scored very high on the prelim online tests i was give every time 🙃 #i would love to be able to give a concrete answer but i dont fucking know. alexithymia is a bastard and unless anxiety is choking me #i cant tell when its from overwhelm or overstimulation 🤷‍♂️ all i know is it's here its happening and i have to deal

Love getting that "world domination" conversation with Astarion.

Astarion: "I mean - I assume there's some device controlling these things, so we find that, murder some people, and... Look, I'm not a 'details' person, all right? But turning up and causing chaos has worked for us so far. I'm just saying that there's an opportunity before us. If we can control the tadpoles, we can keep ourselves safe and enjoy a little world domination on the side. You can't fell me that doesn't sound fun." Durge: "It does sound fun..." Astarion: "I knew I was right about you. It's so good to find a kindred spirit."

Also that bit at the start that goes "we're kindred spirits, what with our love of violence - but also maybe be a bit more subtle and stop leaving dead bodies around the house."

Durge wonders why it feels like they've had a slightly better planned version of this conversation before. Particularly the "murder and violence good, but be more subtle" bits. (And you had them at "murder some people".) And Astarion is literally conspiring with one of the people from Moonrise who controlled it all right now. I actually specialised him as an enchanter for the vampire-esque hypnotic gaze in my build-a-vampire plan, but I'm adding this to the list of coincidences that support my silly diviner headcanon.

They are ridiculous. And they'll only get worse when Minthara is in the party to join the "do crime, conquer the world" club.

#Vel's going to get to Act 3 meet Gortash; look at Astarion; look at Gortash again and go: “oh no.” #His type is bastards who think aspirations of tyranny is a valid coping mechanism - this does not reflect on him or his daddy issues At All #playthrough shenanigans #babbling #/astarion #/durge #petty murder boyfriends

There are many reasons it's difficult to explain what my original novel series is about, but one of them is that one of the core dynamics at the heart of it is driven by the underlying concept of "imagine Machiavelli's relationship with Cesare Borgia, yeah? but they're both queer teenage girls with magic powers in a fantasy world."

Am I the only one who gets skeeved when Stucky shippers put Arnie Roth in their mouths?

Like, seeing people trying to use the MCU's disregard for the source material to spin live-action white yaoi ship no. 2792919 as some celebration of Jewish queerness or w/e just.... makes me uncomfortable at best.
