Rusty Quill Gaming - Tumblr Posts
I really want to commend Alexander j Newell and Lydia Nicholas for creating a character and story line so emotionally compelling that now every time I see a drawing or a post about Sasha Racket I start to cry.
I'm not exaggerating on that.
every time I go into her Tumblr tag I think "this is the time that I'll be okay." but I always burst into tears.
I'm thinking about her (Sasha Racket) again.
And I am crying.
NOT ZOLF,
ALEXANDER,
NOT ZOLF,
ANYONE ELSE!
(except Wilde also not Wilde)
I was going to make a post about how I tried to listen to the Mr ceiling arc of rqg after the finale but I literally got to the point where Lydia introduced her character as Sasha Racket and I started crying but then I realized that that would make three posts on my Tumblr about how I cry about Sasha Racket and that seems a bit excessive.
WHAT IS IT WITH RUSTY QUILL AND MAKING ME CRY
I had to explain to my mom that no I’m not stressed because we’re on out way to drop me off at college. I’m stressed because Oscar Wilde died for a SECOND TIME in a role playing game and his life partner was going to have to save him AGAIN. Who needs real world problems when you have this level of angst
In honor of Rusty Quill Gaming coming to an end: here’s some of my favorite out of character quotes from the cast (it’s mostly just Alex being relatable):
-I think some other people maintain actual friendships. I myself don’t, but I understand it as a life choice
-I once had to explain to my parents that they should be proud of me because I spend all my time in a padded room
-I’m here because I like forcing casual misery on all the people I know and love
-Am I the only one that found God kind of hot?
-You can treat you body like a temple... of Dionysus
-Will they make it? I suppose we’ll all find out on ao3
-Aren’t we all just meat beanbags?
-Give me a second while I check my human interaction dictionary
-Souls just get in the way
-I don’t care about the content, I care about your misery
-I realized I can achieve my aims if I set my aims to “be punished and fail”
-I don’t like that you can all see the cracked foundation upon which I am going to build this cathedral of hate
-There’s numbers and emotions and those are the two most difficult things
Literally me listening to every episode where Wilde doesn’t appear at 2x speed 😭
I'm trying to do an RQG relisten, I'm on ep 26 I predict a riot, but I keep jumping to the post-japan times, this is fine.
I love audio dramas because I can be listening to the most soul-crushing, stomach-turning, nightmarish stuff and at the same time I'm at the grocery store.
Ben “Nat20 heal check to put Sasha’s organs back in” Meredith is maintaining this statistic
"Average D&D player attempts complex surgery at least once in their gaming career" factoid actually statistical error. Lou Wilson-
You know what I think Alex just missed voicing Mr Ceiling

SASHA RACKET IS AUTISTIC AND I WILL F I G H T Y O U BUT NOT ACTUALLY CAUSE IT'S JUST AN HC AND EVEN IF YOU DON'T AGREE WITH ME I RESPECT YOU AND GO HAVE SOME WATER PLZ HYDRATION IS IMPORTANT
OKAY SO LEMME TELL YOU WHY THE FUCK SASHA IS AUTISTIC AT LEAST IN MY PERSONAL HEADCANON CAuse how you choose to interpret a character is your choice and if you don't agree with my hc i will still love and support you and I'd love to hear what yours are.
OKAY LET'S GO
She has on several occasions been shown having trouble with eye contact
Her special interest is daggers and or acrobatic sneakiness
She struggles with human interaction (her charisma is SO LOW)
She doesn't like touching or hugs
She doesn't understand alot of social rules (I know this could be explained away by her being from other London but haven't we met other other londoners who aren't like that? I don't know aND I don't care enough about my stupid hc to look it up)
She stimms using her daggers (flipping them in her hand, throeing them and then catching them)
ALSO RUSTY QUILL HAS GIVEN SO MUCH REPRESENTATION TO SO MANY COMMUNITIES AND GROUPS AND HONESTLY I THINK LYDIA WPULD AND I HAVEN'T FINISHED THE NEW EPISODE YET AND I'M REALLY SCARED PLEASE HOLD ME
oh my god i love her
Azu 7D in Sweet ride?? <3

oil pastels on yellow paper.
ID under the cut!
[ID: a traditional portrait of azu, done with oil pastels. it's a bust of her grinning at the viewer, tilting her head lightly to the left, brushing her right cheek with her right hand, winking. she has a golden set of laurels around her temples, the heart of aphrodite replica hanging around her neck, and a mantle over her left shoulder with a rose pattern, which matches the rose tattoo on her right hand. she has a shaved head, rounded cheeks, pointed ears, and a bright smile. her right tusk is broken. the piece is colored with light pink, red, warm yellow and orange. the background is colored with pink and yellow lines around her head to depict her shining, and there's little red spots around. end ID]
