I don't think there's anything more quintessentially me than playing Baldur's Gate 3 both very well:
-fully seducing and romancing Lae'zel by pure accident and fucking a few other characters along the way
-beating Cazador while being three levels below the recommended "you might make it out of this alive" level (and I was freshly level 9 at that)
-cheesing the apparently awful fight against Shadowheart's Mother Superior by just getting the church to stand behind her in a few dialogue options and gaining a huge asset for the endgame
-making it past the Bhaal trial with the biggest brained tactical move I've ever come up with after shooting awake at 1 am
-and then beating Orin to claim my birthright in about two turns
...and extremely incorrectly:
-backtracking and deleting hours of play time because I can't take out a few goblins
-screwing up the Astarion romance arc around this same time and thereby being unable to complete one of the three goals I set for myself for this run
-doing literally almost everything out of order and breaking the game several times
-running around like a chicken with its head cut off back and forth over and over again for hours trying to do the required Solve the Murders quest and spending at least 45 minutes trying to do something that should have taken less than 10 seconds (what the fuck do you mean I can swap out Shadowheart's spells whenever I want to get Talk To Undead??)
-and stubbornly avoiding combat and sidequests that would give me essential xp because I just hate sidequests for some reason
...I'm simultaneously a god at this game and the biggest idiot you've ever met

It's funny how some people believe that if El agreed to escape with One after the massacre, he'd straight up go and destroy the whole town.
Like idk maybe they would've just tried to find some food and shelter before Brenner, the police and/or other government organisations find them.

It's past midnight forgive me for this.
I saw this Twilight tiktok recently joking about how when vampires kiss it sounds like porcelain clinking together because idk their weird skin is like porcelain.
And now I can't help but think of Emily and Caius... making clinking sound effects 😭💀
A horrible image that you're unfortunately correct about. Apparently vampire skin is just like... super strong porcelain, that's why it cracks the way it does:

(Please excuse the traumatizing example used)
The novella "The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner" goes into it in a bit more detail since Bree is incredibly blunt about the exact nature of newborn vampirism, noting how two of her companions make clinking sounds when they kiss.
But in general this is one of those bits of canon that, for the most part, the fandom largely selectively ignores or outright disregards. The skin can be super resistant and strong, but maaaaaybe vampires banging shouldn't sound like... banging.
Although maybe in Necrosis that's how Caius and Emily got found in the act so often. Everyone could hear the clinking and decided that's the appropriate time to bother them. 🤷‍♀️

“If you have time to watch Netflix you have time for a side hustle” my side hustle is relaxing so that my body and brain can heal from by this nose-to-the-grindstone bullshit. I refuse to feel guilty for being a human with the need to relax sometimes. my side hustle is no.
