There are a lot of extremely good lines from the Commander across the entire game, but I think, as it keeps coming back to me so often, my favourite line is very simply just:

'I'd save the farm.'

Out of context is such a small, nothing line. It isn't an epic hero dialogue, or a witty statement, it's just... the Commander.

Even after it all, the heroism and grand scale of what they have accomplished... they would still save that farm, because it matters. Maybe not to them on a personal level. Maybe it is just a small part of the world, and maybe it doesn't 'matter' as much as anything else. But that farm? Is someone's livelihood. Something they have put their heart and soul into. Maybe their entire life.

And the commander knows that protecting people is about more than just keeping them alive.

#Im so happy to know I’m not the only one who enjoyed this really subtle small line #it’s so effective

Wip of what I painted during the Guild Wars 2 Art Show on Twitch earlier! I got super inspired by the new artwork of Peitha for Through the Veil and I felt the need to make something similar with big boys Cerus and Deimos. Pecs don't lie. Now it joins my infinite list of WIPS. Sponsored by ArenaNet

Man I've been going through Guild Wars 1 to unlock shit for my Hall of Monuments, and I love how wildly the quality of the skill icons oscillates. Because there's like, three very distinct subcategories:

Beautiful hand-drawn or -painted symbols, vistas and such

Posed ingame models

(for the sake of my sanity, pls gloss over how supremely self-indulgent this all sounds / is written. i’m here for a good time not a long time, if you want to argue ooc characterization, i’ll have to refer you to the CEO of Ghostly Grandpas, @legendary-alliance-stance

edit; taking el’s tags for context cus i didn’t think to explain it: #also for context yes they are still ghosts. they just manifest in a semi-physical way about orion (and noriaki) during their downtime lmao)

  The muffled bustling from the floors below floated up through the hallways of the Arborstone inn, settling a low buzz to the background. Noriaki was busy watching the fledglings today, so Orion and his ancestors had the room to themselves, without Shiro grumping and grumbling about nothing and ruining the otherwise boisterous mood.

  Viktor had settled himself into a chair in the corner of the room hours ago, his attention taken by a book from the library that Orion had fetched for him. Orion himself was lounging on the bed, arms crossed underneath his head. Archemorus was leaning against the wall, arms and legs crossed casually as he and Orion chatted enthusiastically about the fishing trip they’d all taken to the Jade Sea a few days ago.

  Despite his reading, Archemorus could tell that Viktor was listening to their conversation with far more interest than he was outwardly letting on, and it was only when Orion lightly cleared his throat that Archemorus realized he’d allowed their back-and-forth to drop suddenly in favor of watching Viktor flip through book pages.

  “So…” Orion started, clearly trying to sound as casual as possible and failing spectacularly for multiple different reasons. “What’s up with you two anyway? I mean, are you guys…?”

  That prompted Viktor to finally raise his eyes up from the pages, giving Orion an uncomprehending look.“You are going to have to be a bit more specific, Orion.”

  The younger man huffed, shifting on the bed to sit up, draping his legs over the edge. He swung the limbs idly for a moment before speaking up once more. “Are you guys fucking or what?”

That’s it. That’s the entirety of GW2 summarized in eight words.

never played guild wars 1 but kuunavang was one of the most interesting characters in EoD to me. a dragon that takes on human form so as to help humans without causing any alarm but clearly loves the experience a little bit and notes that ishan would always say she spent ‘too much time’ in that form and she has her favorite little restaurants and everything and she takes you to one. also sorry to be the guy that loves comparing lines but i always thought the thing she said about soo-won was so stark considering what ankka had been saying about mortals being nothing at all to the stars and the gods and the dragons
