I know I'm late to the party for patch 5 and that God!Gale isn't a good ending for him but his new God dialogue and devnotes just have me alksdjflk:
Player: What can I say, Gale? I'm impressed.
Gale: I thought you would be.
Gale: Now, divine as my company undoubtedly is, I've an eternity to catch up with you - a luxury few others at this party possess.
Gale: Don't let me deprive them of your company. Or mine, for that matter.
Gale: It's not every day a new-born god shows up to the reunion.
devnote:
[hint of smugness - thinks he's a hotshot now]
_________
Gale: There are already several shrines in my honour scattered across the outer reaches of Thay, and rumours of a very prominent temple under construction in Amn.
devnote:
[Very proud of this]
_________
Gale: I am ambition incarnate. As indistinguishable from that most potent sensation as Mystra herself is from the Weave. And word is spreading.
devnote:
[Palpable, almost unsettling excitement from him - hint of megalomania]

I think this line from the description of the file sums it up perfectly:
I will forever be sad that Durge can’t bring Orin to camp with them and have her join as they both work to redeem themselves.
i feel like ppl who are against kids transitioning don’t understand the degree to which pediatrics are fine with medical intervention for kids. like really? this is where you draw the line?
remembering the time I called american psycho (a satirical film about toxic masculinity) a dark comedy and the overwhelming response was 'oh so u think men killing sex workers is funny? u think THAT'S funny?' like no I find a patrick batemen listening to 'i'm walking on sunshine', killing jared leto while wearing a clear raincoat and giving a dissertation on huey lewis n the news, using 'I need to return some video tapes' to get out of awkward situations, throwing a hissy fit about business cards, dropping a chainsaw down a flight of stairs, thinking an atm is telling him to feed it cats, and crying hysterically under a desk is funny. but thank u for ur wonderful insight
a crumb of demo thoughts perhaps
Demo is like the one of the handful of tf2 characters that I will let myself psychoanalyze without feeling like I’m going too insane for doing it. His birth parents gave him up. He was adopted. He blew up his adoptive parents. His birth parents showed up and said “psyche we see now that you have talent and use we’ll take you back now”. He works to meet literal impossible standards. He’s an alcoholic. He loves his friends. He loves his friends so much. Ok? Ok. It’s just so much. (also there’s the wizard thing. Also the identity issues. the cyclops complex.) like brother if I grew up like that I would day drink and blow things up too! Good fucking god!
idk also just sort of thinking how he’s kind of the most outwardly nice and friendly merc, at least as far as the official comics are concerned. He makes sure to assure soldier that he’ll recognize him in disguise, he’s the one to grab onto sniper after he’s shot, he’s got the big dumb smile in the “we’re team fortress, and you’re DEAD” lineup. I don’t even know where I’m GOING with any of this. I’m just sort of fascinated by him. He’s a guy with so much going on and he’s dealing with it but no he’s not (alcoholic) but yes he is (cares for his friends) but no he’s not (hinged his happiness on his one job he cared about and crumbled after he lost it) but also yes he is (gestures fucking wildly)
I was wondering if you have the masky or Tim plushy?
yeah
dream almost calling tubbo tommy oh he’s never beating the obsessed allegations
THIS!!! THIS!!!! Durge and Wyll are so cute and so poetic anD IT NEEDS TO BE SAID MORE!!!
aside from everything else about durgewyll I am loving how it highlights wyll and gortash as narrative foils. both their upbringings lead them to interact with demoniac entities, both can only become archdukes and join baldurian high society through uldred, both are swaying the dark urge from simply following bhaal (and arguably the dark urge sways them from simply pursuing an ideal and the dark urge can recognise both as their equal) and by playing your card right in act 3 wyll just...gets everything gortash was trying to get? wyll really is a hero saving baldur's gate from the legion of the absolute. wyll influences gortash's favourite assassin into becoming someone they can defeat the netehrbrain together. they can even become archdukes together! ...or they can turn it down and then they can go to he hells to sneak around and have adventures (like gortash and durge used to) and save karlach's life (the same life that is at risk because gortash mindlessly threw it away).
like. it's a lot, wyll and durge can even murder raphael.
the fear I felt with the blurred pink mass in my inbox under the harried confession of mistakes
How could Azul look at this little face and go “yeah make her homeless”
