Archive of Our Own, name is also Nenalata (new fics not always on FF, updated more)

WHO IS SHE

[guyofyear]

ALONDRA DE LA PARRA

[theunimpairedcondition]

[counterpunches]

#a warning to anyone out there attracted to women#she looks great in a tux

[missmarionmac]

Have some more photos of her in action, because I love her:

And my all-time favorite:

[houseofgriffons]

She looks like she’s casting spells

[fuckyeahmexico]

Alondra de la Parra is a Mexican conductor and the current Music Director of the Queensland Symphony Orchestra, She has gained widespread attention for her spellbinding and vibrant performances and her commitment to Latin American composers. She frequently works with some of the world’s most prestigious orchestras including Orchestre de Paris, London Philharmonic Orchestra, Tonhalle-Orchester Zurich, Swedish Radio Orchestra, São Paulo Symphony Orchestra, Berlin Radio Symphony Orchestra and Orchestra dell’Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia. In 2017 she began her term as Music Director of the Queensland Symphony Orchestra, making her the first ever Music Director of an Australian orchestra. She holds the distinction of being the first Mexican woman to conduct in New York City and is an official Cultural Ambassador of Mexico.

Random Headcanon: Link’s androgyny isn’t just an artefact of the Zelda franchise’s art direction - and neither is it particularly unusual. Sexual dimorphism among Hylians is legitimately much lower than among real-world humans; if Link and Zelda swapped clothes, you’d never be able to tell who was the girl and who was the boy.

Consequently, Hylian society depends heavily on clothing to establish gender roles, to the extent that it’s a severe faux pas to question someone’s gender presentation. If they’re dressed like a girl, then they’re a girl - even if they were dressed like a boy yesterday. That’s why nobody ever remarks upon the fact that Zelda and her heroic alter-ego Sheik are different genders; it’d be gauche at best to bring it up.

Good post op

[parpatarts]

explains why i can be banned from gerudo town, change clothes in front of the guards, and then be welcomed with open arms

[quantumghosts]

shit, this absolutely provides an explanation for it that isn’t just “lazy game mechanism” and is honestly such a solid demonstration of how people should approach genderfluidity. 

doesn’t matter if the first time you met the person they presented as male, if they present as female now that means they’re a woman and they’re welcome into gerudo town no questions asked

[wombatking]

Also, Link and Zelda 100% do swap places often and you can’t tell me otherwise.

“Princess Zelda, Ganon has made his way into the kingdom! What should we do?!”

Holy shit this is a good fucking post and additions thank you OP and company

[hungwy]

Poe isn’t scary I think but he’s a good writer. Thanks

[moistcardboard]

That bitch from starwars got a book?

[hungwy]

Yes, I keep it in my wine cellar. Come with me while I retrieve it…

[moistcardboard]

Sure! What could go wrong?

[oncelerfucker69-deactivated2019]

I’m losing my mind over this

[eazzy--pink]

How Fenris confessed to Hawke in the game: “I cannot exactly put to words how strongly I feel about you, but I do. And it scares me. It has been so long since I’ve allowed myself to be vulnerable with anyone yet, here I am, wanting to share part of myself with you. You are terrifying and sincere. But I care deeply for you and there’s nowhere else I’d rather be.”

How fandom portrays Fenris: “god Hawke ur an annoying piece of shit but I guess I love and tolerate you or whatever,,,,,here’s a bloody and beating heart,,,,,,,,,,”

[eazzy--pink]

The most angry or aggressive that Fenris ever gets is when dealing with situations that directly relate to his trauma. He is angry when dealing with slavers, frustrated when talking of his memories, agitated when he learns of Varania, infuriated when he finally gets his hands on both Danarius and Hadriana who perpetrated his suffering.

But in every other situation he is thoughtful yet not overbearing. Gives his opinion and is assertive but not forceful.

He is actually rather soft in his delivery and the point of this post is that I tire of people taking a few emotionally charged moments directly relating to him responding to circumstances that remind him of his trauma and using that as a basis of his entire personality.

And it be his own fans…..

[dgcatanisiri]

Fenris will openly cut off his own laughter after one of Hawke’s earliest flirts, in a “that was funny- WAIT NO, I AM SERIOUS BROODY… Aw crap, there goes my mystique’ kind of way. Fenris is a thoughtful and observant dork who will laugh at Hawke “stepping in the poopy” (ACTUAL. QUOTE. from Mark of the Assassin). He just has a traumatic trigger that prompts him to get violent, and that kind of violence actually SCARES HIM.

“Won’t” is the boldest fucking contraction like it really Did That. Just went for it, no shame.

Will Not took one look at Don’t and thought yeah baby need me some of that

Hawke: Fenris, please keep an eye on Anders today. He's gonna say something to the wrong person and get himself punched.

Fenris: Sure, I'd love to see Anders get punched.

Hawke: Try again.

Fenris: I will... Stop Anders from getting punched?

Hawke: Correct.

[tallmansions]

Templar: *sneezes*

Cullen: Good night.

[After joining the Inquisition]

Cullen: So anyways, that's why I can never go back to the Templar Order.

[tallmansions]

Solas: Stop saying "I wish" and start saying "I will"

Dorian: I will my parents still loved me

[tallmansions]

Varric: The Hawke I know isn't fit to be responsible for anyone, including and especially himself. I once saw him drink an entire jar of marinara sauce for dinner. Cassandra, he opened up a new jar of marinara sauce and drank it like it was a thing normal people do. It was unholy. And then I asked him what the hell he was doing, and he said, and I quote, "It's basically a smoothie, bro."
