#somethin’ bout the fleshy innards of moonrise towers#…….#tooth talks#bg3#like it’s about the flesh and blood and bones and…something….#you never have autonomy. volo is going to pluck out your eye. someone placed a bomb in your chest and you had no say in it#someone forced you to grow horns and gave you a forked tongue#someone created you to be consumed and then literally carved a deed of ownership into your skin#you belong to vlaakith or shar and your memories are ours to take and your own people will think you disgusting for what has been put inside#your head#there is now a tadpole in your brain and it allows others to peer into your mind and it will eventually consume you body and soul from the#inside out. it will melt your flesh off your bones and turn our insides to goo and it will literally obliterate You entirely#but it will keep your memories. it will keep the metaphysical shape of you.#but You are gone. you are consumed. you were destroyed in a horrific body horror fleshy pain ritual#and you never had a choice about what was going to happen#WHAT IF I LOST MY MIND#bg3 spoilers#im rambling cus im reading for class and understanding nothing the adhd is in full force nr#rn*#by aesthetic I mean like. environment designs n stuff#like the nautiloid etc being made of organic material and such#like mind flayers are alien creatures that literally obliterate your physical form but all their technology is made of flesh. of the very#thing they consume#their designs themselves are incredibly Organic (exposed brain)#god. godddd.#this fucking game.#haven’t felt this way abt a game since botw#goddddddd#I think I maybe used the word metaphysical wrong but. hum
