Whenever people are like "but have you ever considered that the gods of Exandria came to the planet when there were already primordials and this makes them bad" it's like. Gee. I wonder if perhaps almost every real-world culture's creation myths feature in some part their respective deities, spirits, or legends taming the chaos of pure nature so that the world could be liveable for humanity.

#look. i understand in retrospect i had the benefit of an excellent education #but some of you fully act like your entire education was tumblr university and like. it's embarrassing #also everyone forgets the luxon's role in this but honestly let's start with world religion 101 #cr tag

#just saw a post that was like 'if you have religious or moral objections that stop you from providing certain types of medical care maybe #you shouldn't work in healthcare' (paraphrased) and... #what a way to look at the world tbh #like. they're talking about me i think - i am a conscientious objector when it comes to euthanasia #(which granted has come up exactly twice and both cases in a theoretical capacity only this is not a frequent request to me) #and... i am also a good doctor #last week i told someone that her weight doesn't matter to her health with receipts to prove it and she cried #no one had ever told her that before #and that was something that came from me specifically. that was something i would not trust all of the GPs in my practice - a practice of #excellent and compassionate GPs! - to say #i am verifiably doing good in my job that is coming from specifically who i am as a person #i cannot put that down when it comes to issues i care deeply about #fundamentally the fact that i cannot put it down is what makes me a good doctor #i think that's what i'm trying to get at #the reason that i do well by my patients is that i practice out of my values and my ethics #if i did not stand on that core i would not stand at all #so you can't have it both ways. you can't have engaged and active and compassionate healthcare providers without sometimes those engaged an #active providers having things they do not feel comfortable doing #and it is to everyone's service if they are up front about it and do not try to hide (i am suspicious of people who try to hide this) #i am literally figuring this all out as i type hence the v long tag ramble and also being nowhere near the post that started this train #(honestly in med school we talked so much about ethics as like. abortion! euthanasia! trans rights! and the ethics in practice is the littl #things. do you apologise when you mess up. how do you manage a consult with your patient with paranoid dementia and her child in the same #room at one time - or one by one bc that's fraught too. (that one's on top i had one of those today.) how do you act with grace when #you're a bit stressed and your patient is a bit stressed and the nurse wants to add five more things to your book. the day to day ethics is #SUCH a bigger thing when you come to actual practice.) #this is obviously entirely about me and leans on the fact that i largely do think i am doing a good job i am really feeling my own way #to a Thought. but i think to a certain extent it is generalisable

Fandom: check out this great representation character!

The Character: literally every hateful stereotype about bisexuals available in the early 2000's, except for being explicitly willing to do animals, which they give to his ex (also bisexual)

Fandom, limpwristing: slay gayboss ❤️!

#and then they never stop shoving him down your throat #biphobia #same era of the same thing also produced 'Transphobia! Condensed Edition (but hitting all the marks because we Aim To Excel)' #all from the pen of a Cis White Gay Man who's a 'hates everyone equally' cynic #generally misogynistic and explicitly said 'no lesbians' to the EU comics crew #casually ableist and fatphobic too #i'm not tagging the thing directly but I think anyone who looks at this post can make a Pretty Good Guess #i am salty #vaguing venting with nvz

3 Random Facts About Me

Thank you for tagging me @ghuleh-recs!! (Also wtf you're so cool??? Hairspray was one of my favorite movies growing up!) 💜💜💜

Let's see...

I used to make YouTube videos when I was in college with the hopes of being a paid YouTuber one day. Unfortunately, I lost motivation for it once some personal life stuff happened, but I still get views and comments on some of my videos. My most popular one has 132k views which I think is pretty neat!

Twins seem to run in my family. My youngest sisters are twins, and I have 6 cousins on my dad's side that are twins (2 sets of which being in the same immediate family!)

My elementary school used to have required swim lessons for a few weeks every year. One year I went from not being able to swim at all, and the next I was placed in the highest proficiency group and I could swim faster than even the most athletic boys in my grade. This was all thanks to joining my local gym's swim team over the summer.

I'm not sure who all to tag 😅 But if anyone feels like sharing a bit about themselves, feel free to add on! ☺️

#tumblr tag #tag game #if anyone feels like searching up my old videos they are extremely cringe #you have been warned lol #also nothing feels better than excelling in something athletic when you're a quiet book nerd lol #i still think fondly of everyone's shocked faces

Frederica Aesfrost or Cordelia Glenbrook for the ask game?

Oh, I'll do both, they're both great!

First impression: For Frederica, it was something along the lines of "Oh, she seems cool, I bet I'll like her" when I was watching the early trailers. For Cordelia, after meeting her for the first time in the game I didn't...actually have much of an impression of her, she seemed very bland "youngest sister, most gentle-hearted princess" and nothing more (I was very wrong).

Impression now: Love them both lots! Frederica went well beyond whatever I was expecting of her characterization, she's really interesting and I love how she comes into her own and really starts standing up for herself and her ideals as the story progresses. And I was SO wrong about Cordelia, she's literally one of the most interesting and complex characters in a "royalty" role I've ever come across in fiction, and I love her so much for it. She's got an incredibly strong will, she's very intelligent, and she was actually shaping up to be a really extraordinary leader. I'm sad she gets sidelined in the story as soon as Roland's able to reclaim Glenbrook Castle, because she had all this budding potential to be one hell of a powerhouse of a character.

Favorite moment: Hmm, it's been a hot minute since I played TriStrat, so my memory of the story isn't as sharp, but I really enjoyed the scenes where Frederica fights against Thalas and Erika (in her route of Ch13, "Born of Strife and Sadness" specifically, although her battle dialogue with them in Roland's version "Time to Say Goodbye" is good as well). It marks an interesting turning point in her character growth, and it was really nice to see her finally oppose them without fear.

For Cordelia, I'd...have a harder time combing the wiki for the specific chapter, but all of her cutscenes from her father's death to Ch13, where we get to see how she starts to come up with a plan to retake Glenbrook, and how she's able to inspire Avlora to her side, those were really interesting scenes, and I had a new appreciation for her character after watching them because I simply wasn't expecting her to deal with the grief of loosing her entire family (as she didn't know Roland was still alive at this time) to be "well, I'm the only one left and I am Not going to take this lying down, I will be queen of my people in my own right". Just, mm, really interesting character growth, I would have loved to see the type of leader she would have become if things had gone differently.

Idea for a story: Well, I'm always interesting in post-game type narratives that explore how the characters and world begin to heal after all is said and done, and I think that type of story would be really interesting to explore for both Frederica and Cordelia, but in different ways. For Frederica, exploring how her life as the official Lady Wolffort is, and what work she does to help the Rosellen people after the war while also balancing her new married life would be really interesting.

For Cordelia, I think there's a lot of potential to explore the intricacies and power dynamics behind the scenes of Glenbrook's restoration, as I'm sure she ends up doing a lot of work to help Roland even if she isn't the official ruler (again, all that potential she showed as a leader, you can't tell me she doesn't take up some sort of important position in helping to lead the country)--all this while she also settles in to learning that Serenoa is her half-brother (I like to think she learns that at some point), and her life with Avlora as her knight, and just, stuff in general for her since she has a lot to recover from and grieving she can finally go through.

Unpopular opinion: I don't think I have any wildly unpopular opinions about Frederica. For Cordelia, I guess I'm not keen on the Cordelia x Avlora ship, I just...can't see it as romantic (and the age gap doesn't work for me, I'm fairly certain Avlora is in her thirties at the youngest due to in-game dialogue about when Svarog took her in), although I am partial the idea of the platonic knight-liege friendship between the two, but platonic stuff isn't as popular in most fandom spaces.

Favorite relationship: I'm really fond of Frederica's canon romance with Serenoa, like, normally I'm kinda neutral on canon romances, but the way this one was written was so, so good, and I loved seeing her interactions with the other House Wolffort members. I also like her friendship with Geela a lot.

For Cordelia, her familial relationship with Roland is very interesting (somewhat bittersweet at times), and I would have loved to see and know more about her relationship with Frani and their dad. As I mentioned above, I really like her friendship with Avlora, because it was so unexpected but it makes a sort of weird sense. Would have loved to see more of her interactions with the House Wolffort members, and also would have loved to see how she reacts to learning Serenoa is her half-brother and how that shapes her relationship with him and Frederica after the game's events.

Favorite headcanon: Hmmm, I don't have as many headcanons for TriStrat in general but, I guess for Frederica that in Benedict's ending she eventually ends up breaking away from and opposing Serenoa so she can take up defending the Roselle (probably sometime shortly after Benedict's death), and that in the Golden Ending she grows into an excellent leader for both the Wolffort Demense and Roselle people alongside Serenoa, and the two are fondly remembered by their people in histories later on.

For Cordelia, it would be that her capability and tact for government makes her vital to ensuring Roland's rule is successful in the Golden Ending, and also that she eventually becomes very close with Frederica and Serenoa after learning she's related to Serenoa (catching up on family time), enough that if the two ever had kids she'd be the favorite aunt (she'd be their only aunt technically, but she probably spoils them more than Roland would).

#reply's a bit late bc I got Very Sleepy partway through #to be fair I started writing this all Very Late At Night after I got up Very Early for a morning shift at work #so I'm probably forgetting a lot of details from the game so uh...yeah sorry 'bout that #ALSO I STILL HAVEN'T PLAYED THE SPECIAL CHAPTER THING THAT GOT ADDED #so I know I am missing some post-game details #but anyhow I love these two a whole lot #TriStrat was a really excellent game and I loved all the characters so much but god do I love these two #whenever I do replay the game I think I'm gonna pay extra attention to things so I can figure out how Cordelia would like #interact with all the other characters #I think it would be neat to explore how she gets along with everyone actually #anyhow yeah I love TriStrat a lot #kelbunny #ask game #I still don't have an ask tag

I feel like I as an author need to know my place in The Fandom Ecosystem and that's as the b-team. Fics u read while waiting for JanetBaby99 or Thethirdmanthethird or Selvish to post.

#oh and a crackfic writer that too #I'm not upset about this I like being indie. but sometimes It kind of hurts when other authors get a ton of attention and I don't #but also I'm just being jealous so. there's that. and generally the other authors in this fandom have higher quality longer works #like 6-7k instead of my measly 2k and also their works are closer to proper RPF and not my fantasy AUs #but like at the same time it hurts my feeling a little to never have my works on those “fic recommendations” lists or the announcement post #getting more then 7 reblogs. NOT THAT I'M COMPLAINING SEVEN REBLOGS IS EXCELLENT AND I LOVE EVERYONE WHO DOES #but I guess I get jealous because I feel ignored? #Idk maybe I'd make more author friends if I posted on twt? Leyton said TWT is better for spreading fics around but it also scares the LIVIN #shit out of me. I don't want Dream/Sapnap/George seeing my stuff that's weird. But at the same time I want to be friends with the other coo #multiship authors sometimes. I mean I KNOW my fics are lower quality then theirs but. but I still liked making them and I like sharing them #whatever this post is getting really long and is mostly me whining si I'm going to tag it as a vent and move on lmao #vent

apparently we as a fandom are doing “what if your minecraft oc got dropped into a traffic server”, so:

this weird little chunk of void gets plucked up by the great hand of the universe and plonked down in a server they’ve never been on, with a bunch of people they’ve never met. they immediately set about doing the only reasonable thing one could do in such circumstances - building an antiques shop. they’ve always wanted to build an antiques shop to sell antiques out of! and now they are on a world that has materials with which one could construct an antiques shop, and also many strange and interesting items to sell as antiques. oh, happy day!

a player stops by the shop once it’s built. “what,” they say, “are you doing.”

“i’m here to sell antiques!” says luki.

“you. you are aware you’re in a death game, right? like, we’re all here to kill each other? three of us are on yellow already. the nether portal’s been trapped. no one knows where the enchanter is. i’d put a diamond on it that we’re less than a week away from our first red.”

“oh. we are? that’s unfortunate. would you like an antique to help you, given all the killing and things?”

“...how is an antique going to help?”

“well. some of them are quite heavy?”

“okay,” says the other player, with an air of deep, bewildered resignation. “fine. yes, i’d like an antique. sure. ”

“great!” says luki, plopping an item into their hand. “that’ll be one diamond, please.”

the antique is an egg.

“it’s faberge,” says luki.

it’s just an egg.

#luki #ocs #trafficblr #life smp tag #i love luki they fucking suck so much #little antiques-selling idiot #they would be Such besties with scar tho ldsjghskdjgf #scar's busy manipulating ppl and luki's just like. friendship points! yes. an excellent human currency. #improvement over luc tho. #luc would try to stay the fuck away from everyone and then when push came to shove would slaughter them all #and then have a ptsd episode about it #idek what lucrezia would do she's Too Refined for this sort of shit #and also a vampire and blood mage and botanica practitioner so like. hmmm. would Not go well on a vanilla server

girlfriend finally finished the last case in the third ace attorney game aka every day i’m reminded that this series is why i’m obsessed with character-driven writing aka the closure for mia’s arc as a character was tangentially diego but primarily putting this bitch in the ground A THIRD TIME

#shut up me #ace attorney #the fiendship tag #mia fey said ‘as long as your incorporeal form inhabits this plane you will look like a LOSER BITCH’ #anyways the third case being entirely centered around mia as an inversion of the ‘fridge the mentor/woman’ trope is chefs kiss #gf: ‘WHY IS EVERYONE LYING TO ME TO PROTECT PEOPLE’ me who knows: ‘maybe some people deserve it…..’ #good series would recommend it’s very much some anime bullshit but it’s also excellent character writing excellent replay value
