For the uncommon asks
Oof, just one? Make this hard, why don't you? 😉 Uncommon asks here.
And my goodness, just one song. Answering for Saadrah on this one.
Let's go with "Right Where You Belong" by Blame My Youth (from the soundtrack for Bill and Ted Face the Music.
I think this is a good demonstration of Saadrah's life uprooted, on the move, from constantly traveling with her family when she was young to feeling out of place in Minrathous as a Shadow Dragon to traveling with Varric to crashing in the Lighthouse during the events of Veilguard. And the thing is that the places in her life are where she's needed to be, and she's the person she's needed to be. She's felt adrift, but she's managed to build home around her, bring it with her.
Thanks for the ask, Beasty!
I'm also going to tag @jellyeliart on this one because it could double as a Favorite Music Friday entry, so here you go Eli!

CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT QUESTIONS. // @chibitantei
For the entertainment of it, I'm picturing an interaction between modern farm Butch and OG Butch and,,, it's fucking hilarious.
Considering the fact that farm Butch takes on many traits of his fathers after having stayed on the farm and spending his whole life around him rather than running off with Darlene, main verse Butch would despise him. I think he would be horrified in fact at how much this version of himself actually looks like his father. On top of that, Farm Butch is repressed, defensive, and sheltered in many ways--in ways I think main Butch would find annoying. Not only that but farm Butch is far from the sharpest tool in the shed. Mad himbo energy.
He has the tendency to be a bit misogynistic at times as well (despite knowing any woman could probably kick his ass at the drop of a hat) courtesy of hearing his fathers shit opinions growing up and can be a bit...ignorant when it comes to lgbtq+ matters if only because he was raised by a man who enforced that he repress those parts of himself. Main Butch would find this behaviour (especially from himself) ridiculous and cowardly rather than comedic in any way. The hypocrisy would make him cringe and he would be thanking the heavens that he got trapped in that book for over a hundred years instead of turning out like that.
what’s the deal with Leon I feel like I haven’t heard anything about him
YAYYY A NEW ASK
Initially I was going to keep him kinda mysterious but since he's important to diane's plot, I've decided to include him more in my official posts about the sillies.
I'm going to give some basic information so I don't spoil anything:
He's a butler to mainly Tater tot, but generally to whomever needs his services.
He's also a cakeling like tater tot, but instead of his origins being from the sun, he's actually from the moon. (a specific branch of cakelings)
He is Diane's love interest
He's trained for this role as a butler since he was a kid, around 7 years old
His parents literally gave him to the palace as a kid because they were too poor to take care of him.
He was specifically trained to serve whomever the ruler would be, which happened to be tater tot, so they became close friends just by being around each other so much
his personality is the opposite of tater tot's. he's pretty quiet but bro will not hesitate to tell you about yourself.
