i believe her

[astralcrash]

how have I not heard anyone talk about the fact that, on the cover of story and song, in the spot where griffin would be, lucretia is there instead. griffin is gone and it’s lucretia telling the story now, and so she takes his place on the cover. I’m going to throw up whoever came up with that idea owes me financial compensation

[dndshakes]

As obsessed with her as I’ve always been

Occtis when he has to explain to Thaisha why Dame Seremai is a zombie

[star-h0pper]

i'm finally getting caught up on cr4 e31 and man. the clear influences of the player's real life culture in their characters (and in the worldbuilding in brennan's case) is amazing and adds such a richness. like thaisha is so clearly influenced by like. black american folk culture Especially with the orcish revolutionaries. idk if liam is irish but he's at least running with a lot of the irish american working class stuff brennan injected into the world in terms of the hal and the culture of the round. and azune's whole bit about not having anyone to speak his native language to and his disconnect to his own identity (diaspora narrative). i Love when real world cultures are reflected in fiction it's so good.

#and what Robbie is doing with Katt seems to be very much exploring the unchecked violence against native women and children in the USA

Hello there. Guess how much money I made last year? $28. I’m an investment banking analyst at a boutique firm, in M&A. I have my undergrad from the University of Chicago, one of the top schools in the country. With bonuses, sometimes I make even more. Are you jealous of that? Most people on Tumblr are usually jobless or they decided to major in the humanities and are poor.

$28?

you have a disgusting storytelling addiction

It’s true. It goes back a long way, too. It all started when…

chopping vegetables and laughing to myself as I imagine someone writing a fanfic about their new oc, the long-lost McElroy sister

[chaumas-deactivated20240115]

she has deep purple eyes and long wavy black hair and they have to put her on the podcast and the title of the fic is my brother my brother my sister and me

[playwrongs]

She walked confidently into the podcasting studio. She looked at the three brothers sitting there and smiled, tossing her shiny raven tresses and looking at them.

"It's nice to meet you all," she murmured and her violet orbs shone while she looked at them. "My name is Carmellia Sofia Azura McElroy. And I am your sister."

"But you are too beautiful to be our sister" said Justin looking at her with astonishment.

"I don't know how this could happen" said Griffin who was also astonished.

"Your eyes are as purple as my hair" said Travis (he was still dyeying his hair purple)

"It's true boys" said Clint. "Your mother and I had another child but she was lost when she was one year old. We never told you about her because we didn't want you to be sad that she was lost. But now after many years she has grown up into a beautiful young woman, and you can hear how amazing her voice is. Plus, she is so funny and hilarious. If we put her on the podcast everyone will want to listen."

"I don't want another person on the podcast" said Justin. But then Carmellia said "You mean you don't want another horse in the stable" and it was so funny that everyone busted out laughing hard.

"Okay it's true you are funny and your voice is so rich and good to listen to" said Griffin. "We will change the name of the podcast and make it so that you are on with us every week. It will be called My brother my bRother my SISTER and me!"

"That is all I ever wanted" said Carmellia as she cried happy tears. She took out a big handkerchief so the tears wouldn't fall on the beautiful pink gown she was wearing that had white lace on it and trailed down to the floor. "I'm finally reuinted with my family and I get to make jokes with them." Everyone hugged.

[chaumas-deactivated20240115]

I think Carmellia dies tragically by sacrificing herself to save her brothers in chapter 12. There are four chapters of everyone grieving her before Sydnee McElroy (in the only appearance of another woman in the fic) resurrects her with medical science. She is the eldest sibling but she was kept in cryogenic sleep for like 30 years so she didn’t age and is only 18.

Lucretia is the most fun character in the world because she is set up exactly like the guy who has been a villain all along, but instead the big reveal is that she's your best friend. And she loves you and thinks you're hilarious.
