I'm an Astarion girl at heart, but Gale is a very, very close second. Then Wyll, Dammon, and Rolan. Halsin, though certainly attractive, is a bit much for me.

I found something DELIGHTFUL. The bear, Bosk, who is talking with Volo when you first enter the druids' sanctuary, will talk to you once Volo leaves. All the origin characters have special dialogues for him. I was not able to test this for Tav or the Dark Urge yet.

Bosk: You're curious— you've got a great many odours about you. What happened to you?

Karlach: Tell him about the horrors of the Blood War and your escape from Avernus.

[Narrator: He listens, wrapt, hanging on every word.] this line is the same for all origins

Wyll: Speak of Baldur's Gate— and tell him how your father cast you out.

Shadowheart: Speak of discipline, secrecy, reverence— fighting for the glory of your blessed goddess.

Gale: Tell him how you got involved with an angry Netherese orb.

Astarion: Tell him your tale— wealth, power, vampires, crypt...

Lae'zel: Describe the cold beauty of Crèche K'liir, orbiting high above Toril.

[duraffinity]

Tav/Durge: Tell him about your journey.

Unfortunately, he doesn't actually say anything after that.

My soundtrack for today. IYKYK

Really the whole album fits the tone of the day, the weather too.

It’s my Birthday! That’s what day it is. 👵🎉

And so it is again!

Duran Duran

This picture will forever have a certain infamy among my friends. I had it as a mini-poster back in the day, but it was fairly scratched up and torn in places... except for the part with Simon. So I cut him out, laminated him, and he became a light switch cover. ;) I may update this with a picture of it if I can find it.

[lakevida]

morally grey/evil scientist characters are always like biochemical engineers or nuclear physicists or whatever but the people want VARIETY give me a story about a fucked up geologist for once

[snowgray]

[headspace-hotel]

The thing that got me into science was completely missing my registration deadline my sophomore year of college and having to sign up for whatever was available, which happened to be a geology class. The professor was a contagiously enthusiastic woman who dressed like a mash-up between Dolly Parton and Mrs. Frizzle, who told stories like the one about the time where she was on her way to a formal dinner date with a guy (the kind of thing where you make reservations ahead of time) and saw an outcrop of garnet mica schist on the side of the road, so she had her date stop the car so she could go examine it, IN HEELS and then asked her date if she could carry samples in his car (there was no second date)

and the other time when traffic was stopped on the interstate and she was next to a road cut between high cliffs (i’ve seen the place she was talking about it’s fucking Hazardous) so she got out of her car and started CLIMBING THE CLIFFSIDE and a cop told her to get down and she was like “oh trust me im a geologist”

HELLOOO I fucking love all these that you do... may I request putting him in the labyrinth with David bowie? <3

dance, magic dance

[duraffinity]

Love this! Looks like they jumped right off my bookshelf.

One more for @putting-eddie-munson-in-places

Inspired by Eddie in the "Rio" video, I thought he'd fit in "Wild Boys" as well. He looks good in denim and leather!

(Sorry Andy, he had to replace someone, and the lead guitarist spot seemed appropriate!)

[duraffinity]

Since @putting-eddie-munson-in-places is taking a small break, I thought I'd try my hand at it. He got himself a golden ticket and made it to the freaky 'Wonkatania" ride!

[memewhore]

[duraffinity]

Certainly feels that way...

Dickensian

I just finished watching 'Dickensian', and Joseph Quinn as Arthur Havisham is phenomenal! But now I really, really want to see him get a much happier ending.

(slight spoiler to the ending of Dickensian ahead..)

I am no writer myself, but I can picture Arthur jumping off of that roof trying to end his life; but instead, the roof of a carriage breaks his fall, only to leave him with bruises and perhaps a broken ankle. Then out of the carriage pops a young handsome man, with a beautiful head of hair, to see what had landed on his ride. He introduces himself as Mr. Harrington and helps the drunken, wounded Arthur into his carriage to take him to a doctor. Perhaps he then lets Arthur stay at his home to help him recover; and things naturally progress from there...

Anyone out there, particularly in the Steddie fandom, have any similar thoughts? Also, if anyone is willing to turn this into a full-fledged fic I would incredibly thankful!

[djo]

They still need him. [insp.]

[munsonismymuse]

We need Eddie

[duraffinity]

Since Duran Duran never had dolls (other than Funko Pops) I made a thing! … and just had to share. 🙂
