So here's a thought: griffons have a natural, inborn hatred of the Blight that is so overwhelming that they can't be put through the Joining. They will tear themselves apart before they accept it. Even Isseya's modified Joining couldn't make them accept it - the griffons simply became hyper aggressive and would fight to the death, no matter how badly wounded they became. They cared only to kill darkspawn, even at the expense of their riders.

Griffons are also hybrid creatures of cat and bird. You know who loved to create hybrid creatures? Who's whole deal is creating beasts and monsters? You see where I'm going with this.

So what if the griffons were created specifically for the purpose of fighting darkspawn? Like a sort of frontline defense to fight the physical symptom of the Blight, and their rejection of the Taint was a means to ensure that they wouldn't then be corrupted in favour of the Blight.

Wait, hold on a second.

Griffons; related to the Blight

Hormok was activating on darkspawn and grey wardens; related to the Blight

Qunari (possibly); also related to the Blight

Was she researching how to cure Andruil?

would have been 1000x more interesting if she had been doing that instead of being evil just because

Tarte Robespierre

I found a recipe for a Carvin fruit tart that has been re-named in the honour of Robespierre. Here it is (translated from French):

Carvin tart, also called Robespierre tart

The Incorruptible was fond of this recipe, which is however no reason not to bake it anymore [Ha, ha, yeah… OR it is a reason to bake it!]

For 10 to 12 persons [indications in European measurement]

For the dough

250 gr flour

60 gr castor sugar

125 gr butter

2 eggs

20 gr fresh baker’s yeast

3 soup spoons of milk

1 pinch of salt

topping

½ liter of milk

14 pieces of sugar

½ pod of vanilla or something similar as extract

40 gr flour

1 egg

1 egg yolk

30 gr butter

500 to 700 gr non-pitted plums [prunes?]

½ liter weak tea

1 soup spoon of brandy

Begin with preparing the dough.

Heat the milk and crunch up the yeast in it.

Put the flour in a salad bowl that has been heated under warm water and dried previously. Make a hole in the middle and add the sugar, the salt, the mixed eggs, the soft butter and the milk-yeast mixture (when risen).

Mix the ingredients with a wooden spoon.

When the mixture becomes thick, continue with your hands.

When the dough is even, form a ball of it and let it rest in the covered bowl.

Let it rise about 2 hours, until it has doubled its scope.

Take up the dough again and knead it, then place it into a big cake-pan of at least 35 cm or two smaller pans.

Spread it out within the pan by using the back of your hand until it completely covers the bottom and the borders.

Let it rise for one hour.

Meanwhile, prepare the plums, water them in boiling tea flavoured with brandy (rum would also do). When the plums are soaked, pit them. If you have used previously pitted plums, you must take less fruits, but do not skip this step..

Prepare the mousse.

Cook the milk with the sugar and the vanilla.

Put the filtered flour, the egg and the egg yolk in a salad bowl. Mix it and take care it does not grain up.

Add bit by bit the warm milk.

Let the mousse thicken on low heat. Keep stirring until the mousse is thick. Take it off the heath as soon as it starts boiling. The mousse mustn’t boil.

Add the butter and let it cool down.

Spread the mousse over the dough and put the plums on that.

Let it bake in the heated oven (230°C) for about 40 min.

Dark Urge Choice Percentage

Spoiler related (specifically for The Dark Urge ) bafflement below!

I cannot BELIEVE that only 2% of all Steam Baldur's Gate 3 players have attained the Slayer form. That has to be wrong, right?

I recall that they fixed the issue with the achievement percentages, but this makes me wonder. Is it that so few people have gone that hard into embracing the Dark Urge ? 🤔 I know people generally can't bring themselves to be evil in video games, but surely there are more out there willing to be villainous and vile?

[bytalos-thiscantbehappening]

the slayer form isn’t worth it in act 2 because moonrise towers is a really hard battle without the harpers.

i’m obsessed with aziraphale’s ending. how can someone as clever as you be so stupid. because the clutches of good are so much more dangerous than the clutches of evil. being too attached to a good ideology can so easily push you to do evil to uphold it. belief in your own goodness can so easily blind you to the evil you’re doing. aziraphale wasn’t drugged and he doesn’t love heaven more than crowley, he simply values goodness over evil and believes his idealistic view of goodness to be innocent. he’s been indoctrinated by heaven into this black and white view of it. he thinks goodness is this perfect ideal that can be fought for and achieved. he will turn into fucking robespierre. he will become so obsessed with his goodness and so convinced that he’s right that he will guillotine anyone who tries to stop him. he already is robespierre. he guillotined crowley. not because he didn’t love him but because he’s blinded by an obsession to goodness that isn’t goodness. he can’t bare to see someone he loves go against what he believes is the point of the universe. it’s a mercy killing. and he doubted it so strongly. because subconsciously he knows it all. but he believes he’s good and he wants to be so he will do anything to prove it. it’s so difficult for him to abandon the primary principle of his universe. and i think only when he realises that goodness as he believes it does not exist that he’ll realise. at the guillotine himself he’ll understand. goodness can be just as evil as evil. if heaven destroys the earth it will be just as dead as if hell did it. i highly doubt the moral nuance of this will be continued into season three but boy would i love to see it

[bytalos-thiscantbehappening]

robespierre never killed 17000 people nor was he that black and white but i can definitely see aziraphale fitting that depiction of robespierre quite well.

so what is frev tumblr's opinion of the 2022 soulslike videogame Steelrising?

[bytalos-thiscantbehappening]

honestly, i really like it but the gameplay is kind of hard. i’m still gonna do another play through though. i was expecting it to be like detroit become human for some reason, but it was not.it would have been really cool if Aegis did become deviant similar to the androids in dbh. robespierre was surprisingly not propagandized. you can humiliate lafayette with marat’s help. i fucking hate lafayette so i had the time of my life doing that quest. it’s a good game but it could use some improvements. like adding a robot dragon and making it a little longer. 10/10 would recommend

AITA for not killing my boyfriend?

I [32M] have been with my boyfriend [39M] for three years now. I really, truly love him and vice versa.

However, recently he blew up a religious building (long story) and killed a bunch of people. Another friend of mine [39?M] used to be a Brother there and was close with the Revered Mother who died in the explosion.

That friend told me that my boyfriend needed to die. I said no, Im not going to do that, because I like him and also the people who died kinda had it coming? My friend then got really mad and said he was going to go to his hometown to reclaim the throne (he's royalty too, forgot to mention that) and then use his armies to annex my city and kill my boyfriend.

Personally I think this is a bit of an overreaction, I mean, it was just a little terrorism? But some of my other friends said I was being "too extreme" and agreed that maybe I should have killed my boyfriend. AITA?

have I ever told you about the danton curse I think you guys would get a laugh out of the danton curse.

[antigonehappy]

the danton curse is a rule in my daily life that every time I insult french politician georges-jacques danton, I run the risk of incurring said curse. there have been three incidents of the danton curse that I can remember happening off the top of my head

I was watching la revolution francaise. danton came on screen and I started booing him. a second later, I choked on my popcorn.

I was microwaving soup and complaining about a book I was reading's positive depiction of danton. when I opened the microwave, my soup had exploded.

I was eating a burrito and talking to someone about the french revolution. I mentioned that danton was a corrupt asshole, and immediately inhaled burrito, causing me to cough loudly and uncomfortably.

granted, there are many times I have insulted danton and not incurred the curse, however, once is a coincidence, twice is a correlation, three times is a pattern.

all I'm saying is something out in the universe really doesn't want me talking shit about danton. at least when it's paying attention.

[bytalos-thiscantbehappening]

just sounds like you were enjoying booing and hissing danton so much you forgot to to pay attention to your food.

[1789saint-deactivated20231206]

i took 54/100 on my history exam about the french revolution, and after 3 months i am obsessed with it and i would have done a pretty good exam as of now. why is timing in my life always so wrong

[1789saint-deactivated20231206]

i'm still thinking abt this but you know what i'm thinking about now? the fact that before the exam, our professor said "watch these movies to help you understand frev"

and the movies were:

- a very normal documentary, which i didn't watch

- DANTON 1983

- MARIE ANTOINETTE 2006

MY TEACHER WATCHED THOSE TWO MOVIES. and especially marie antoinette😭 like yasss king slay with the sofia coppola pink aesthetic coquette movies!!!💅💅💅
