obviously rping in the medieval/fantasy space as i tend to do means tungle wants to show me all the aso.iaf blogs all the time. and i think they are super cool. but 10+ years later i still don't understand a single thing about that world 😂

[thornsyde]

something something not that i'm up to date on the lore but i imagine that wallace grey hating loghain mac tir has to be something of a wild 180 degree shift - almost out of character - bc dude fought against the orlesians and would have seen loghain as a hero like everyone else.

[thornsyde]

trying to link this back to nessa because that is fundamentally the point of this blog but from about age five she would not have heard a single nice thing said about loghain by literally anyone in the village and now i'm thinking about like if he lived and she ever met him...

[thornsyde]

no but like, i definitely killed loghain when i played dao, but i am obsessed with the idea of him surviving everything and ending up a ranked warden and then there's nessa who's only piece of usable information about him is that this guy is a piece of shit...

WHAT COLOUR IS YOUR AURA?

red — leather jackets, cherries, bruised knuckles, roses, lipstick, fast cars, rose petals. your essence is red: you are a spirit of intensity who effortlessly inspires others. you struggle to slow down; there is always another goal, another prize, to prove you are strong enough to them. you cannot stop speaking for the voiceless. you are the torch-wielder. you are the rebel. you find kinship in like-minded individuals of crimson, blush, terracotta, and fire, who share your unapologetic nature. you are also drawn to the free-spirited souls purple and yellow, who will help you grow and see that you can lighten your heart sometimes. however, you may struggle to get along with the internal personalities of blue and brown who are too methodical.

this is a reminder that i literally do not care if you reply in five minutes, five months, five years.  still owe me something and want to start something new? go for it.  still owe me something and want to answer memes or send memes instead? go for it.  just not jiving with it and want to do something with a different character? go for it.  need to disappear into the wilderness and scream at the sky for a few years? no problem.  you take any and all the time you need.  this is a hobby, it is for fun, it should not ever cause you stress.  you do what you want to do when you want to do it.  i will never be mad bc you drop something or it takes a year for you to answer it.  this is a collaborative hobby that we do for enjoyment and if it isn’t fun, if it isn’t sparking joy, do something else. you take care of you.

not exactly karma, but maybe something something does hearing about the blight in ferelden and being able to do nothing feel like a punishment for minrathous...

[thornsyde]

i'm more and more convinced that nessa would feel this way, like there's nothing more she could have done but it still feels like some type of comeuppance that she couldn't do more to save neve's city and now her homeland is being ravaged and she can't do anything to help...

[thornsyde]

ness probably needs someone else to take the leap and say i love you first, because she's convinced she's just meant to be easy-breezy and chill, and saying i love you would definitely be way too much and there's no way they feel the same, she's just meant to be here for a good time, she's just got to keep it together...
