#listen he can't be fixed

Happy Friday x3 I'd love to see: I still remember how you taste for Dadwc, and maybe with m Lavellan/Solas if you are in the mood for it x3 Happy creating <3

Ohhhh yissss, I'm exactly in the mood for some Solavellan angst. Thanks for the prompt and happy Friday, Spicy! Here's my villain Inquisitor and Solas meeting in the Fade, the prompt is slightly modified.

Solas x M!Lavellan Rating M for violent imagery and war

-----

“Mahanon.”

The voice stops him dead in his tracks. What was he even watching? A few quick blinks and the surroundings blur, leaving one person sharp and colourful in a sea of now-monochrome crowd. 

“Solas,” he breathes, and for once he can wrestle himself from the role of a spectator in his dreams. The frozen figures of his imagination implode into dust as he stalks through them, headed towards his love. 

Soon they stand close enough to touch, but… 

“It's been a long time, Solas,” Mahanon says, his fingers squeezing into a tight fist he pockets. Fighting the urge to hug Solas, or worse yet, kiss him. 

A sad smile curls on Solas' lips. “You've been waiting for me?”

“Of course,” Mahanon scoffs, though it's not anger. Not really. “I've waited my whole life for someone like you, and then you just…”

He throws his hands in the air. Even here, under the waxy black sky, he can't say it. 

“I still remember everything. Your touch. Your voice. Your taste.” Mahanon sighs, the oft-played memories flashing in his mind as he stares in Solas’ eyes. “How could you just… forget about me?” 

Mahanon notes the way he takes a half step back, how his brows furrow. 

With a flick of Solas’ hand, their surroundings shift from deep emptiness into a field of battle. Corpses lay on the ground, cries of desperation pierce the air. The stench of burning flesh closes in like claws, but Mahanon's attention shifts back to Solas. 

“What?”

Solas blinks a couple of times, his mouth turning downwards. He shakes his head, looks up to Mahanon. 

“Do you not see?” His hand draws an arc, gesturing at the burning field. “This is why I've had to forget about you. You and I, we do not stand for the same thing.”

Mahanon's hands flex at his sides. For once, he's silent, waiting for the inevitable blow. 

“You do this,” he points at a phantom clutching a grievous wound, “because you enjoy it. You cut through—” 

“I don't enjoy it!” Mahanon growls, teeth bared. “I have to! I have no choice!” 

Solas stays silent for a moment, a finger rising to his lips. Then, quietly, “Then what is your end goal?” 

Mahanon crosses his arms on his chest, closing his eyes. That's… a good question, one he's never quite found the answer to. 

There's one thing he knows for sure. “I'm lost without you.”

“You were already lost when you were with me.” Solas’ jaw tightens, his posture stiffening. “There's nothing I can do for you.”

Everything fades to black without a warning, and when Mahanon's eyes open, it's to stare at a ceiling he knows all too well. His castle, quickly falling back to disrepair. 

The fireplace is nothing but embers at this time of night, but he shelters by its fading warmth. Reports from the warfront already in his hands as he tries to shake the nightmare. 

To think of it as anything else would be unacceptable.

danny: i'm not going to that dark cave with you.

steve: *pouts* seriously?

danny: claustrophobia doesn't go away.

steve: you have nothing to fear while i'm here, i can be your Big Strong Protector™, baby😎

danny: that's not...how phobias work, steven

lou: 👀👀👀

Or the one where Steve's years long quest to get Danny in a tight dark space is thwarted by Danny's claustrophobia which he's sure he could defeat with The Power Of Steve™ and is confused that it hasn't worked yet.

I know everybody likes to give characters the same 10 songs on their character playlists, but I think the most egregious issue with this is that no one gives them any country songs. I am handing them out to characters like candy. You get a country song, you get a country song, you get a country song.

#this has nothing to do with the fact I think cowboys and farmers are sexy I SWEAR #it has a lot more to do with the fact I grew up around country music and rural farmers and rednecks #I JUST THINK superman should listen to a lot more country music than other people do #same with will graham. sorry you think he was listening to npr while fixing motor boats??? wrong #and I gaurantee there are transformers who would listen to it. fight me on this #every once in a while I will see johnny cash but I want to see toby keith on a playlist #or chris stapleton or the cadillac three or tim mcgraw SOMETHING fucking keith urban #get funky with it put reba on there. some dolly parton #do you know how many country songs are about murder??? you could make it work for will sooo easy #personally I enjoy the idea of clark listening to tan lines by tanner adell and bruce having a whole moment #I think will should listen to cowboy casanova and have a RealizationTM about hannibal #come on you guys. it would WORK #AND STAR WARS COME ON you can't convince me the outer rim isn't the wild west #make luke and anakin listen to save a horse just once please i'm begging i need it for my health

my boy only breaks his favorite toys hurts more as a marvey-coded song because. what if i said that when harvey was playing pretend with mike that they could pull off the fraud. that was probably when he was happiest. when i explain that mike took harvey out of his box and stole harvey's tortured heart and left all of harvey's broken parts and told him he's better off. what then!

#caroline talks #suits #no stop walking away. do you understand. do you understand. #on first listen you would think 'oh this is mike thinking about harvey' #but actually no. i argue that this is just harvey thinking about mike. #puzzle pieces in the dead of night and something. something about harvey PLAYING FOR KEEPS-- #how for harvey everything is a huge poker game and how he was betting on mike staying. #something about mike running whenever harvey asked him to stay for longer. harvey's abandonment issues. do u understand. #also. 'once i fix me. he's gonna miss me.' and cut to harvey moping for all of season 8 #also just like. 'just say when i'll play again HE WAS MY BEST FRIEND DOWN AT THE SANDLOT!!!' #'I FELT MORE WHEN WE PLAYED PRETEND THAN WITH ALL OF THESE KENS!!!' DO YOU UNDERSTAND!!! #something about harvey watching mike leave and mike going 'i can't do this anymore' . . .. GOD--

Do uou ever think. Cause I do

#feh #listen i can't just post a nice drawing. i gotta post shitty pencils sketches. gunshot. lower the rent. #anyways i can never quite parse out the peony alfonse dynamic bc i think they just avoid each other. at all costs. #peony doesn't even realize her actions have like. ripple effect consequences. she thinks everything is fixed. #esppp doesn't help that alfonse just. doesn't fuck w feelings. he would prefer to opt out. #still. i am always thinking about it. how alfonse loves sharena so dearly. how he still loves her and nothing can change that #and. then there's peony. #like do you ever think about them as estranged siblings. cause i do. #somewhere triandra slots into this. normal family tree that makes sense 👍 #fe peony #fe alfonse #my art

anons crazy 4 this one im not sorry. like truly calling it a ZERO out of TEN arc. u must be crazy im not sorry

#listen im a ctommy swords and shields and i dont Love how he's portrayed in a lot of fanon #but the idea that it made the server WORSE. and that it was a 0/10 arc is act crazy . like truly the exile arc was gen really great like i #gen think it was . so well done #also to say that it wasn't worth the discourse surrounding it. #girl its minecraft roleplay. theres gonna be stupid discourse no matter what. like truly #name one arc or even one singular at least mildly popular server that doesn't have stupid asf discourse #like OBVIOUSLY people were dumb about it. that doesnt mean it shouldnt exist. #like the idea of saying that a huge narrative arc shouldnt exist because some audience members couldnt handle it correctly. #like okay sure lets never talk abt anything even remotely nuanced ever again in media. that will fix it. #like ofc some people handled the exile arc poorly. people can't even handle rose quartz #.hellwurld #dsmp #tommyinnit #exile arc #discourse #maybe #idk #im not saying that anon is stupid btw im just saying that im smarter /JOKE. #whatever its the dsmp its fandom its fine that we have differing opinions just know that im right and youre wrong

CHANGING STATES

Lately, something has taken hold / of me—not hunger, not shame. It is like a flower / blooming in the injury. —Richie Hofmann

On the evening Jeremiah decides he’ll drive thirty hours to Maryland, the other half of his mattress is cold and Madonna’s on the radio. In his bedroom, he taps his cigarette on the windowsill, the ash scattering into rainy blue hour, and listens. Time goes by so slowly, she goes, her voice singed through his boombox’s broken speakers. He’s meant to replace it, though he’s meant to do a lot of things: check the mail, make a quiche, buy lightbulbs, call his sister, take up cross-stitch, recycle an olive jar, move his bed to the opposite side of his room. But time goes by so slowly, and Jeremiah would know—he’s twenty-one, yet feels he’s been alive for much, much longer.

#i already shared this BUT I WAS TINKERING WITH THIS PROJECT TONIGHT #(this morning I had revelations to make this autofiction-y about going to a place and before getting there someone dies) #which is loosely based off 2022 me in maryland and this is 2005 jeremiah in maryland!!!! #ANYWAY TONIGHT I WROTE A PARAGRAPH ABOUT JEREMIAH IN LOVE WITH THE WEATHERMAN #but i was sick of not having a title (the document is legit 'jeremiah book' lol) #SO I THINK THIS IS FINE???? #also it's not going to be a book it's probably going to be a short story!!! and it's like my apology to this poor man for inflicting #harrison upon him #my bad babe #i still need to fix this paragraph the phrasing is a little off!!! BUT he talked about madonna's new album in BB #AND HE'S LISTENING TO IT NOW!!!! #I'M A LIL UNWELL OVER THE CONTINUITY #also pls read that hofmann poem (linked!!!!!) I LOVE THAT COLLECTION SM I CAN'T BELIEVE I GOT IT FOR FREEEEE #changingstates

how to bring up to your dungeon master that your character might be better if she got railed

#when you're also the person in the group who's usually least interested in doing a sex scene #listen i'm not saying sex will fix everything #but my formerly-oath-of-devotion paladin who has lived in a constant miasma of anxiety and is a highly pressurized bottle of emotions #is finally letting herself make (frankly bad) choices and letting her rage out and went oathbreaker and is trying to enter her bad bitch er #this is the ariadne who fucks and she should get to fuck one time 😂 #i keep thinking about this guy back in the city where her order's main temple is #who took over the thieves' guild because the temple wasn't helping the city and he was taking matters into his own hands #and god he's been stuck in her craw because like #you're saying the thing i've devoted my life to is shit #and i'm not sure you're wrong but i can't say that #and i hate that #and i hate you #and you're doing more for the city than my entire order is #and i hate that too and i hate you so much and why do i want to make out with you a little bit #god if we run into him again later in the game now that ariadne's not quite as tied up in her order shit might get weird #also: my notes from the session where we met him read “idk who this dude is but i'm gonna fuckin kill him”

me realizing fawniel is a more openly affectionate couple than fawnric: this is fucked up and evil behavior actually

#gideon shut the hell up challenge #OKAY BUT WE DO HAVE REASONS FOR IT. okay. listen. #it relies heavily on the fact that ric has it in his mind that He Knows Fawn already. he knows how much they value their privacy #and he thinks that he can accurately judge whether or not they'll spook if he tries to be overly affectionate in public places #which like.... he's right !! to a certain degree #but daniel. does not have any of that going for him !! like he's perceptive but he also doesn't have the same hesitation that #chen and ric do when it comes to dealing w them / predicting their reactions. he just... treats them like he would any normal person !! #(we have it in mind that this is a v big Point Of Contention for him w ric bc like. stop treating them like a ghost or an echo or w/e !!! #if he can get over the fact that they're different irl from how he spent years imaging they would be then ric can come to terms w #the fact that they're different than how he knew and he should be focusing on getting to learn them all over again !!! which ric ofc #argues that he Is but. spoiler alert. he only Kinda is. listen. we can't explain it all okay we've all played the game u can see it) #so. anyway. danny is not afraid to be v touchy w them :) he also will do subtler gestures if he's getting that vibe but otherwise. #tldr they weren't socialized enough as a pupby and he's fixing it <3 #♡: fawn x daniel

Song of the Day: March 15

“Over Yet" by Hayley Williams

#song of the day #very exciting to have one of my brothers tell me entirely unprompted that he's enjoying the current playlist #a very big win #I spent most of my work day today doing what I've been thinking of as 'evil rubber-ducking' #where the IT guys throw me the especially Difficult faculty members--the ones who can't be helped because they won't listen-- #and I trick them into actually talking me through what they're doing so we can find the problem and fix it #(eternally amazed by people who request help and then refuse it. you called me bud. you submitted a service request ticket on purpose. #oh you can't do your job without connecting to the vpn? that's great we can't fix it until you tell us what's fucking stopping you) #mostly this 'tricking' takes the form of me being a sweet young butter-wouldn't-melt Southern girl in over my head with mean IT guys #bless them (derogatory) these folks who won't let IT even attempt to start working through the 'have you tried' scripts #because they know they're getting something wrong but are too angry-embarrassed to admit they don't know what #are still delighted to mansplain the idea of a remote connection to me #--that's not fair. I shouldn't mischaracterize them it's mostly not mansplaining. #the two today were yankee-splaining me. city-splaining maybe. #what would a hick like me (y'all is one person. all y'all or some'a y'all for multiple people) possibly know about enterprise networks-- #anyway they were using the wrong login credentials and were so sure of themselves they'd never even tried the other set just to see #bless. their. hearts. #(IT owes me so many little favors like this now. the latest database tweak I asked for got done live while I described it to them) #anyway anyway! love the chorus on this song #'to get out of your head yes break a sweat / baby tell yourself it ain't over yet' #makes me move my head every time

Thinking abt Taru fresh out of the Abyss, out with his siblings and spotting a rabbit or small animal. Instincts & habit kicking in ( those seldom lasted long in the Abyss, get it while he can, bring it to share with Master- ), him immediately setting to hunt and kill the creature then proudly bringing it back to his family, all smiles and blood-spattered, and being utterly thrown by the fact that he was not met with mildly disinterested praise, but sheer horror instead-

#hc; tartaglia #blood mention tw #animal death mention tw #//Happens only ONCE #//Bc ONCE was enough to really make him realize he can't HAVE what he had in the Abyss anymore #//In some ways; it's a good thing; he supposes. He now won't have to worry about what & when he'll eat next #//Won't have to worry abt being stalked and ambushed by creatures that would give most anyone nightmares (he sure as hell has them) #//But now; he's just been so Altered from how he used to be #//He's restless; body honed to attack and defend from the monstrous threats he's dealt with all that time #//He's got a battlelust no one could ever hope to match; bc those harrowing experiences truly got to the point of THRILLING him #//He MISSES the way his Master looked after him; being treated so softly is just TOO much now #//Prolly had moments where he just had a total disconnect from his family; just couldn't really bond with them again until after he enliste #//Though I like to think maybe he was able to with his younger sibs; bc they were too young to Get the rammifications of what happened #//Lil Teucer always smiling so bright like the sun; when the others look at him with hopelessness or despair; always asking for stories #//Anthon; always trying to get in his arms; whenever he starts dissociating or makes a face bc the elder family members upset him some way #//Tonia; helping fix him up when he comes home after a brawl; her scolding the only he really listens to; him pledging to be her knight #//Him damn near resigning himself that they might be the only ones who love him after everything (he doesn't realize that's not true) #until he gets enlisted & becomes a Harbinger. His more 'behaved' self in their eyes being palatble enough for things to slowly return to #'normal'; even if they can all tell (save maybe the youngest ones) that something is still Off about him. But it's FINE; all FINE; now #//'Better than before'; they would say #//Which is why he would place SUCH value and favor on a partner that GETS that part of him. Who would ENABLE him rather than restrict #//He wouldn't ask for them too; but he will NOT let them go; EVER; once he realizes

wicked game by chris isaak as a zukka song. discuss

#as THE zukka song even. ive been listening to this on loop this morning #it's also specifically very tams and taob zukka coded just bc it's got that jaded 'been through hell' vibe to it #'the world was on fire and no one could save me but you' hello... literally the war..... sokka pulling zuko out of it.... the gaang winning #'i never dreamed that id love somebody like you' GOES BOTH WAYS #also the chorus kinda reluctant to fall in love but it's happening anyway? VERY TAOB AND TAMS CODED #like i always said taob zukka's anthem was georgia particularly bc of 'if i fix you will you hate me' #and 'i dont want to fall in love with you (the world is only gonna break your heart)' gives similar vibes #and the tams angle is bc tams zuko's whole thing is that he wants NOTHING to do with the war #like he's had enough he's seen enough he's well and truly given up hope #he's lost his fight which is such a heartbreaking thing to consider for ZUKO of all people #and the gaang kind of. forcefully give him hope again and restore his faith in humanity and he's fighting it every step of the way #bc if he gets his fight back then it means he can't just be jaded and indifferent to the injustice he's seen and experienced #he has to deal with it head on and that's such a horrible scary thing and he just doesn't want to fight anymore #literally 'what a wicked game to play to make me feel this way what a wicked thing to do to let me dream of you' #in this essay i will- #twice as many stars #taob updates #<- very funny to me that i just use that tag as a taob dumping ground like it very rarely has anything to do with an update <3 #zukka
