#he's so sincere and sweet

[myrkulitescourge]

the way that one line from the new epilogue in an astarion romance is going to HAUNT me

just. what a profoundly intense thing to confess to someone.

like, just these six months of newfound happiness with you exerts a force on his heart equal and in direct opposition to two centuries of endless torment, the gnawing hunger and exploitation. this flashbulb-bright fraction of his long life holds the same gravity to him as years upon years of darkness and suffering.

in all likelihood, he hasn’t even known his lover for as long as his worst memory lasted, that year sealed away to go mad from starvation and sensory deprivation, yet he still tells them this brief time has been so fundamentally and powerfully important that the weight of even that unimaginable hell is vanishingly small compared to this present he has now and the future ahead of them both.

how am i supposed to act normal about this.

#i need to lay down #just drop this in there right at the beginning why not! #that’s INTENSE. and completely sincere considering his demeanor at the party. god #he’s so… nice. in the romanced epilogue. i expected him to be a little smug and jokey #if tav told him the others weren’t doing so hot without the two of them around #but he takes it so genuinely and with visible disappointment?? literally shocked me #i thought he would say oh of course their lives have taken a turn without our impressive leadership lol! #and then redirect into something a little less flippant #but man. he just gets sad. astarion six months into a loving relationship is like a stray cat that instantly gets cuddly when you adopt it #dude went cotton candy marshmallow saccharine sweet in a HEARTBEAT #bless the others with your presence he says. i’ll always be here he says. we have forever after all he says. #head in my hands. how could they do this to me #astarion ancunin #astarion bg3 #astarion #bg3 epilogue spoilers #bg3 spoilers #baldur’s gate 3 spoilers #bg3

for science. does dan seem the type to call phil "love" unironically?

#i think hes generally SWEET #so he DOES have it in him to call phil all the cute petnames #i know he says honey & love when he's joking BUT would he say it sincerely

A NOTE, ATTACHED TO THE TALONS OF A MESSANGER BLUEBIRD.

High Druid, I remember when you told me the story of how I was found: alone in the forest, defenseless against the cold and creatures who roamed freely all around me. And yet no harm had befallen me as I slept, a mere babe who you then took in as if your own. You were always so sure it was Silvanus who protected me that night, who gave me the strength to grow up to see the beauties of this world, the wonders of nature. Now I'm sure I was blessed back then, just so that I could be here, trapped under an endless night sky, nature's song sounding discordant and wrong to my hears and yet, unafraid. I've found so much resilience in my travels, so much faith and bravery. I keep between my fingers the seedlings of a love so pure I feel almost undeserving of it. I hope the Oak Father will watch over me one more time, as I try my best to let it blossom into something as beautiful as his creations.

Thinking of you and the others, always. Yours, Nimue.

the constant mischaracterization of gale just exhausts me beyond belief

#so many ppl project onto him then take that as being his character like..... #first he's not an incel second he is not straight they are all canonically bi/pan third he just enjoys sharing his knowledge??/?? he is not #mansplaning y'all just throw around words for no reason #like if you dont like him ok i guess but don't use YOUR misinterpretation of him as canon #he's just such a beloved character to me and i'm so tired of how much ppl shit on him for no reason!!!!!!!!!!!! #even in the game like its so fucking mean to him in so many of the dialogue options and why???????? he's so tender and sweet and sincere #baldur's gate iii #baldur's gate 3 #bg3 gale #bg3 #gale x tav #gale dekarios #gale of waterdeep

there's just something different about pete in the epilogue. he seems so much more settled in his own skin, he takes the time to consider what he's hearing, what he wants to say, how he wants to touch. there's a general sense of calmness that I think can only have come from a significant amount of introspection while vegas was unconscious, after the intense emotional whirlwind of the attempted coup and his resignation.

pete said himself he tries to live in the present, and i think part of that has been a defense mechanism, trying to not self-analyse too deeply or he'll have to confront the emptiness lurking there ("no. I've always been useless."). but after the finale, after finally owning up to what he truly wants and going after it, pete has had time to look at those choices he made in a desperate situation and has had to confront himself about them.

so when vegas asks him why he's still here, he takes a moment to really think about it. and unlike when vegas asked him before at the safehouse why he came back, he actually answers. he gives an answer that could have seemed flippant, but there's nothing but sincerity in the way it's delivered. he can't go anywhere else. and then: he just wants to follow his heart.

it's not a complicated answer. but it's what he didn't understand or couldn't face up to before, and he can only do so now because he isn't hiding away from himself any more. he knows that this was a choice he made and he will stand by it, keep making it, because it's what he wants. he seems so comfortable in his own skin in a way he hasn't before because now he isn't just living in the present: he's thinking about the past and what it will take to live with that, and most importantly he's thinking about the future and the life they could build together. the life he wants to build together.

and that conviction that he wants to keep following his heart gives us a version of pete who is so much more whole than any we've seen before

#kinnporsche #vegaspete #kp orig #i think the epilogue the sex scene and the escape scene are the most maskless we see pete in the show #and none of this is to say pete is suddenly healthy and everything will be fine now or anything like that #but i do think he's so much more grounded in the epilogue and prepared to face the future even when it will be hard #and i love that for him #and yes he gets smiley and shy when macau wakes up but that is just the natural reaction to being teaed by a teen #honestly (and this is just me being me lol) i even feel like those smiles are different??? #like they feel more sincere than his big fake smiles do #he genuinely seems like he can't keep the smile off his face after the initial embarrassment and it's so sweet #especially when he cuddles up to vegas at the end he seems so CONTENT #there's something about pete's big character moments occuring in times of high emotional stress #but the last we see of him it's this state of calmness with himself #knowing what he wants and sticking by it #man i just... pete

every time I come across Content that isnt my own I get the thoughts and thinks. Too tired to do anything about it except this ig

#Coming to terms with the fact that I can share shitty dumb doodles and tag them even and it's not a crime #I'm not quite Ants In My Brain levels but the brains are scattered rn. #Anyway I love a relationship that is unlabeled and unknowable but gosh damn it is sincere and devoted #I was thinking of that 19 days bit. 'you're the strongest most badass little mo' or sth #ANYWAY! Not confident enough to tag this w my art tag so #Fuyuhiko kuzuryu #Hajime hinata #Kuzuhina #Attempting to go full ramble in the tags after the actual posting bc I just got shit to say I guess #Not valuable shit but shit nonetheless #They're good for each other they build each other up. Fuyuhiko was putting so much faith in Hajime from the get-go #Hajime is like dont give me too much credit no I dont wanna think about my talents. And Hiko is like nah man you're great (in his own way) #And Hajime encourages so much growth in Hiko which is WHY I think Hiko is so passionate in his loyalty #Hajime makes Fuyuhiko smile and laugh and reflect on his behaviour and talk about his experiences #They laugh TOGETHER in the middle of the killing game which is v sweet #Fuyuhiko is DESPERATE to prove that he's changed and that he wants to do good now and Hajime is just like 'okay you got it' #Like thassit. And then when they find out Hajime wasnt a talent student Fuyuhiko is like 'oh ok' #They accept each other very readily and they trust each other so much and idk maybe my brain is broken but #I FEEL like I feel a sincerity in their friendship #Like it's for life man they're already making plans for the future when they're friends (hiko especially) #Yeah I guess I'll save these tags. Idk I'm a little Ill of the Brain rn

Halsin's biggest muscle is his heart, and that's the only thing that matters

#BG3 Musing #Halsin Posting #Halsin #more gen stuff with halsin where he's literally just the sweetest of sweet hearts #like here - what's this - it's a baby bunny maybe hold it and you'll feel better #scratch just gravitating to him (which makes the orin thing even worse) #halsin being that endlessly kind of patient and sincere that is almost irritating #because you think it's fake but the worst part is it's just...not #so you can't ignore it or brush it off #i'm gonna make a gifset maybe because woo boy when he happy cried with oliver i was crying #i swear ill make something more than a text post someday #edit: oh dude he's the embodiment of 'what do you want to be when you grow up? kind' sound #i will also say i will never forgive larian for making intelligence his dump stat #he's not dumb he's literally just naive #and desperate and trusting and listens to his heart too much #he is emotionally driven not dumb

🌈 Free the gays from weird heteronormative top/bottom discourse 2k24!!! 🖤 (And by extension, the dom/sub associations that go with it!! Which are also a completely separate though sometimes overlapping concept!!!)

Write your violent angry murder blorbo getting railed!! Make that sweet shy angel baby a top! Make them both verse and throw the concept out altogether because it’s inherently a bit silly to start with!! ✨ And your personality in the rest of your life often has nothing to do with your bedroom preferences anyway! ✨

Or don’t! Do whatever you want because it’s fanfiction! 🥰✨ Write them with whatever dynamics or lack thereof that you want—that’s the point! And no one can tell you what is and isn’t okay to write in your own fics!! 🎊 They're fictional characters, have fun!!!!!

Happy new year fellow fandom gays!!! Go wild!

#sincerely #a real life gay who has been repeatedly mislabeled #by people who will never be in the bedroom with me to find out anyway 😌 #and who enjoys representing these kinds of internal dichotomies in my own writing #maybe my violent anger blorbo just wants someone to take care of HIM for once #maybe he wants nothing more than to be fragile and soft and never could be before now #maybe he wants someone to pin him down and fuck him silly and fuzz out his constantly over-vigilant brain #MAYBE HE JUST LIKES TAKING IT UP THE ASS #there are any number of wonderful and fun and awesome reasons #to explore unexpected dynamics in smut fics #and i encourage everyone who wants to to pursue those desires without shame!! #and without fear!! #maybe my sweet soft baby boy blorbo just wants to make his partner feel good and relax for once #maybe he loves so deeply that he can only express it through teeth and ropes #maybe he just finds the fantasy of control super sexy in a world where he otherwise has none #embrace your wildest most “ooc” smut dreams!!!! #because your fanfics are first and foremost for YOU #and don't let anyone else's opinions influence you otherwise 🖤

you guys won't believe this but y'all what a miracle..... God's grace always seems to come in floods when you least expect it. The boy problem is now resolved and at rest (well. somewhat.)

I somehow got around to talking to him yesterday about the disastrous conversation (the one where he went on at length about my age) and, God bless him, it was all ignorance rather than malice. He listened for a while, his face becoming more and more drawn and appalled as I explained how X thing came off, and at one point he just put his head on the table and was very, very upset because he hadn't thought about it from my perspective and hadn't realised the effects of his words. It was a surprisingly comfortable conversation (it is always easy to talk to him), and it was a relief to hear from his lips that he hadn't meant any of it in a hurtful way - he hadn't thought about how his words might sound at all.

#it was very sweet really and i am very glad that we are still friends. even better friends even because of this #he felt so badly that he actually wrote a long message apologizing again afterwards #anyway God bless him this is all very new to him! #and he's very conscientious and kind and thoughtful and i am glad that i was wrong about him meaning those things that way #it was a very sincere and honest conversation and i was grateful for it #God's grace abounds y'all a huge weight has been lifted off me and i am so so glad for it!!! #thank you for praying for me so much and for walking alongside me these past three months #it has not been agony the whole time! as i told him it was surprisingly joyful to fall in love with him. and i would go through it again #and i am glad that the end of this was not a careening dreadful painful agonizing end. praise God for that!!!! #the waiting room chapter

UGGGCCCKKKKKK I WANT TO DIG A HOLE AND BURY HIM IN IT,,

#this whole mini manga is so sweet but it also highlights Rengokus self doubt and the weight of his fathers lack of support #and i really love that.. he is sincerely haunted by this doubt and the fear of never being enough and it like!!! #it makes it so much more special to me that hes so cheerful and works so hard to keep everyone upbeat. he never wants anyone #to suffer with the feelings hes haunted with so he stands as an idol of positivity as best he can.. #and i adore that!!! people dont appreciate his struggles enough i think.. his kindness is a show of dedication and strength to never #giving in to the pain #its literally everything i hope i can stand by tbh.. urkkkkk.. hes so special to me man 😖 #he and senjuro just like me for real💥

[hearts-hunger]

i think if you were dating danny and you told him you were touch starved he would gesture to his whole body and say “there's a whole buffet for you right here baby what are you complaining about”

#but in a sweet way like very sincerely saying ''you can touch any part of me or be touched by any part of me you want. here you go.'' #like he's baffled that you would ever let yourself get to that point because he's so happy and so willing to be close to you any time ever #anyways danny i love u. marry me #maddie.txt

every day I think about doug eiffel being exposed to the concept of transgenderism. "her pronouns are they/them" type of guy

the contrast between him being an all around decent person vs not really getting it at least at first yk. they go into similar ideas with his character a lot in the podcast come to think of it like as a serious arc. I just think it's kind of funny

(combining your asks for clarity)

yeah. <3 he's so clueless. like you said, it's just kinda how he operates - he's well-meaning and accepting, but he's still trying to unlearn his assumption of himself as the default person, and he has chronic foot-in-mouth disease. not that he wouldn't occasionally say something incredibly boneheaded, or ask the dumbest question you've ever heard out of sheer ignorance, because... he would... but i think he'd actually be very normal about trans people. if it's not a big deal, he'd be perfectly casual about it and would have no trouble gendering you correctly. the real concern is if it becomes a big deal, at which point he will become hyperaware of his failure to fully grasp the concept, and overcompensate through loud and embarrassing performative gestures. so you know he's totally cool and supportive.

obviously i think of hera as a trans woman, but her gender identity and presentation are straightforward and understandable to eiffel. like i've said before, she needs to make friends with people who are weirder about their genders so that eiffel is put in situations where he has to make split-second decisions about whether or not calling a group of people "ladies" is the right call. i need hera to make the kind of friends on earth for whom her normalguy cis boyfriend is just an amusing novelty. for no reason except that it would be very, very funny to me.

#he would also say some very corny and cliche things i think #but he would say them so sincerely it's still kinda sweet #my cisgender boyfriend doug eiffel . also. <3 #asks
