I've Been Thinking About Starting To Write Fanfiction. This Post Made Me Brainstorm So Hard That I Might

I've been thinking about starting to write fanfiction. This post made me brainstorm so hard that I might actually do it...

I'm thinking a reimagining of all the first meetings with the Origin Characters.

Quick question: why doesn’t Gale land ON TOP OF ME when I pull him out of the portal?

Like if Larian can give me sexy knife time with Astarion as the first meeting, give me an awkward Gale who has just fully landed on top of me, almost nose to nose, with Gale stumbling over his very eloquent words.

I love reading Tav stories

I’m having a holiday break soon, I may or may not continue this when I come back, so here’s my work so far!

So much love for this video. It cheers me up <3

The thing that Baldur's Gate got right is that each companion is both extremely cool, tempered with an appropriate dose of cringe.

Gale is a powerful wizard. He uses the phrase 'pish posh' unironically.

Lae'zel is a badass. She asks you to fight her and then gets emotional because you're fighting even though that was her idea.

Karlach. Badass. But we've all seen her idle dance moves.

Wyll is this swashbuckling vigilante and he has a pose he does whenever he says his own superhero name.

Shadowheart. Dark backstory, still striving so hard for the light. Makes a joke about poisonous flowers that falls incredibly flat.

Astarion. Capable rogue and a dangerous vampire. He practises his one-liners ahead of time. Within earshot of the people he wants to use them on.

Hey, have you heard about the new third-party option in the Visibility tab of blog settings yet?

I HAD NOT, THANK YOU FOR THE HEADS UP!!

In this house we hate AI generation tools built on content without permission, so I'd recommend everyone out there:

go into your blog tab

click on "blog settings"

scroll allllll the way to the bottom to the "prevent third-party sharing" option, and toggle that on (it looks as if you have to do this for each individual blog right now)

I have too many hobbies, and 99% of them require my hands... This is amazeballs!

btw I’ve found these stretches from the WAK blog very helpful when knitting a lot:

Plus make sure to take breaks regularly - and stop if anything starts to hurt!

especially with gift knitting I know it can be tempting to push through it for a deadline, but it’s really not worth causing long term injury. (And anyone knit-worthy should be understanding of that, imho.) Stay well :)
