Meredith...is Such A Good Villain. She's So Perfectly Nasty. She's Real But She's Just Campy Enough.

Meredith...is such a good villain. She's so perfectly nasty. She's real but she's just campy enough. She dresses herself to look like Andraste. The god complex of it all.

And Hawke by act 3 being so...not COCKY bc that implies some falsehood. Apostate Hawke, in act 3, knOWS, has PROVED time and time again, that they are Apostate Number One. There is no bigger fish to fry. Hawke knowing, with every conversation, that it will come down to them vs Meredith in the ring. And they are SALIVATING for it. And Meredith can't do anything!! Money is power. Hawke is backed by the nobility. Hawke is backed by the Fereldans. Hawke is backed by the Underworld. She can't move against them like she would any Lowtown apostate. And HAWKE KNOWS OHHHH THEY LOVE RUBBING IT IN HER FACE THEY'RE PRACTICALLY FLAUNTING IT. THE PSYCHOLOGICAL WAR FARE. The "We'll catch up at the Gallows, knight-commander, I've been eagerly awaiting a duel with you." THE FUCKER THAT KILLED THE ARISHOK IN SINGLE COMBAT??? fuck I love them. One of the tastiest rivalries in the series is Meredith vs. Mage Hawke.

(And while Meredith is too busy being pissed at Hawke for being King Bitch, Anders and Thrask are basically emptying the Gallows right under her nose. He is being a cunt for the People.)

Gamlen putting himself in charge of getting everyone in Kirkwall to leave Garrett alone to recover after the arishok scuffle and he does it just by being himself

Free my woman she did all of it but I don’t care

yeag

i think we as a culture leaned too hard on the sentiment of “if it’s not hurting anyone then it’s fine” so now people feel like if they want to complain about something they dislike they have to find or fabricate some reason why it’s actually hurting someone. the truth is you’re allowed to just dislike things and you’re allowed to say so as long as you’re not being a jerk about it

character playlists aren’t for songs a character would listen to they are for songs that remind me of the character
