pining is 100000% the most important aspect of pre-relationship fic for me. good-natured whole-hearted pining filled with lovelorn gazing and chest aching and fluttering touches, that’s my top priority. i was put on this earth to watch characters suffer over the profundity of their love for another person. unrequited love is why god made me. characters finding out that their feelings are reciprocated after long months/years of suffering is why the universe was assembled from nothingness. amen.
Me: I wonder how many works this fandom has on AO3
Me emerging from the depths: what day is it?
Lol it's me, I'm the sister, glad to be back ^_^
I've coaxed my sister back onto tumblr, everybody be cool, okay?
After many many MANY many years, last week (or more at this point?) I rewatched the third Inuyasha movie.
an aroace, aro, or ace person saying “aro/ace people can still be in relationships and have sex”
non aro/ace person saying “aro/ace people can still be in relationships and have sex” (they’re about to use it to justify shipping/discriminating against aro/ace people)
Me: Alright I’m going to be super productive tomorrow!
Me, the second my alarm goes off:
fyi i will be extending some dark tendrils across the sky later today. just a heads up
You cannot tell me that Mythal wasn't being set up from ORIGINS to be the final enemy if they'd gotten to make all 5 games, the real puppetmaster all along, and I am so upset that we didn’t get that because she was well on her way to becoming a fantastic villain
The problem with liking Mythal as a character is...
On one hand you have the fandom hating her because she's a woman and Solas loved her, which some people for some reason thinks this somehow detracts from his capability of loving Lavellan???
On the other hand you have BioWare straight up forgetting that she was in fact a terrible person too. One minute they say the vallaslin were all slave markings, therefore meaning Mythal had slaves? Next minute you have Solas saying "she was the best of them" and then all of Veilguard acting like she was some benevolent poor woman caught in the middle of everything and not an active participant?
But alas if you really think about Mythal, she becomes incredibly interesting if you like complex female characters, which I am fully convinced is an accident on BioWare's part lmao...
Anyway I support women's wrongs, so
