Jen. 33. Kentucky. Photographer. Header by @vireja. Icon by @mistysblueboxstuff Mostly a space for me to reblog things I find funny and video game content. Dragon Age, Mass Effect, Remedy Connected Universe, Dishonored, Cyberpunk, etc. This blog is my happy place and therefore is a no politics zone. I will not follow blogs back that excessively post politics, regardless of what views they hold, especially if said posts are not tagged.
This pinned post is (going to be) a handy guide to my OCs! Mostly Dragon Age focused, but others may appear as well! Links to character pages coming soon!

Might go quiet/be late on things this weekend. TW under cut
My mother in law is on her deathbed, not expected to last through the night. I'm with husband his family and we're just kind of... waiting for the inevitable.
I don't even really know what else to say. It just sucks... everything sucks. Fuck cancer.

#idk what this means or if i do this but ig i'll just hold my phone with my pinky stuck out from now on??
Good question, also no that won’t help.
shitty MS Paint 3 minutes doodle, nto entirely accurate: When you have your pinky hooked on the “bottom” edge of the phone for the extra security so it doesn’t slide out of your hand that easily, you’re wreaking damage on your hand, since the pinky is extremely askew from it’s resting position. You might have noticed that when you hold your phone like that for long time it begins to hurt, like when you are gripping a pen too tightly for example.
Green lines - the fingers are going their natural way. Red line - the pinky is way off, that’s bad.
I actually recommend everyone write for a rarepair once because it completely changes your relationship with fandom. Engagement stops being numbers and starts being names. You know who's going to show up. You recognize usernames. Someone disappears for a while and then comes back and you're like “OH MY GOD WELCOME HOME.” It's incredibly wholesome. It is also deeply inconvenient when all six of you simultaneously get writer's block-
Even after a long hot shower, there was a dull ache that Juan couldn't quite get rid of. Thankfully, they were fully stocked on pain killers and Mina, gods bless her, had cleaned up to the point one could barely tell what kind of chaos had happened that night.
They had started the kettle for themself and the coffee maker for the others. When they heard dragging, tired steps, they looked over and shook a bottle of pills. "Might help, we have a long day ahead."
"Fucking sangria," Gemma muttered, taking the pills and slouching against the counter. She looked around the clean apartment. "Did last night really happen?"
"Unfortunately."
"It was going so well until…."
"Riley."
"That."
Gemma nodded and instantly regretted it.
"He says he's going to quit. Do you believe him? I don't want to. But if he does, then why wouldn't Glad leave? And if they both leave—" they said before trailing off, glaring at the pot to boil faster. Juan took a moment. "You know this isn't about the tour, right?"
She knew better to nod again, whispering a small 'hm' instead.
"We're going to come back, and they're both going to be gone."
Gemma reached out, squeezing their arm. "No, Juan."
They put their head on her shoulder, if anything to dull the headache. "How do you know?"
"Even if they don't go, they'll still be here when we get back."
"Maybe."
"They will be." Gemma grasped for a logical argument. "They are staying for Lydia and Illario. They're both still here. This is Illario's home. Lydia has a great job and friends here. If they don't leave, Riley and Gladius won't leave, so everyone will still be here when we come home. Just less tan than us and jealous of all the trouble Gigi won't let us get into."
"Gigi is going to need a raise."
"Viago is already on it."
"As for the tour, we still have the contingency plan."
"Right. I'll make some calls after practice. Should probably loop in Dasha first—"
"DASHA!" Gemma yelped, jolting enough that Juan went crashing into the counter. "We did all of that in front of Dasha!"
Juan climbed back to their feet cursing. "Oh fuck, she probably thinks we're amateurs."
"This is so embarrassing! What if she wants to leave?!"
"We can't replace her, we'd be back to Zalan on an mp3 player!"
"Get ahold of yourself!"
Juan held up their hands and took a deep breath while they both made poor attempts to calm themselves. "Right. Sorry."
"We need to talk to her. Explain everything."
"Come on, let's head downstairs. Dasha might be up by now and we can grovel enough to make her not flee back to Rivain…" Juan opened the door, stepping aside as a half-asleep Elven woman drifted in. They blinked in surprise. "Oh, hey Mina. Uh… Money's on the counter."
Mina nodded sleepily before drifting to the sofa, flopping onto it and quickly drifting off to sleep.
Juan looked back over at Gemma, "That's normal. Let's get Dasha."
How better to astound your friends or terrify your enemies, than a bitchin tattoo? My interpretation of several favorites and one I made on my own. Not textured or shaded like the originals, and some of my own edits.
Rest are below the cut, along with clear versions - you're welcome to incorporate them into your own art if you'd like. I'd love to see if you do, so please feel free to throw me a tag.
Original PNG Files
All but the last are based on the game designs, as closely as I wanted to make them. The last is a confection of my own, a nice tidy little swear (Vishante Kaffas) with help from the Tevene Font.

I love asking people how their parents met. You always get an interesting reply. My best friend’s parents met on the relatively new internet in 1999. My other friend’s parents met at Burger King when one was the manager and the other was a regular customer. My parents met at the beach because they were neighbors in their rental houses, mom was on a church trip and dad was getting blackout drunk every night with his friends next door.
