Something Something The Reason Varric Struggles To See The Inquisitior As A Person (repeatedly Calling

Something something the reason Varric struggles to see the inquisitior as a person (repeatedly calling them a symbol and expressing how it's hard to remember that they're not at both the end of the wicked grace scene and in one of his own one on one scenes) is actually not about The Inquisitor or What They Are To The People or The Singing at all.

But it is an internalised coping method for himself so that he doesn't get super attached and burnt just like he did with the da2 gang. I mean. Look no further to how Sera calls him out on this one.

Like it's kinda crazy the roles Varric fulfills in DAI all the way to WARNING LOVE INTERESTS THE INQUISITOR IS A BAD IDEA just like Wynne does in dao. He's literally so damaged and the ghosts of Kirkwall follow him everywhere and he's SO aware of what it means to follow a hero and let yourself care about them and their friends.

Anyway.

the 2 most traumatized and deranged dudes in the world both think they can fix each other 50 million dead 80 million injured

grashofinsanity, this is for you. A story of bridges and moranth munitions.

I love the concept of Tooks. "Everybody in the Shire is very very businesslike and respectable and has no use for adventures except for this one entire family of mad lads who also run the municipal government"

Aro and Ace Recommended

By the way- I haven't seen people talk about it much. But do my aro/ace folks know about the existence of the aro recommended and ace recommended sites?

Basically they're websites where ace and aro folks can submit recommendations for healthcare- both mental and physical- that is aspec friendly! I think its such a great resource- especially as somebody who had their gp pretty much hold a prescription hostage until I was forced to out myself (and then treated with disdain).

It would be great for people to contribute to if they have had good experiences so that aspec folks can stay safe (we do have one of the highest rate of being offered conversion therapy after all)
