skiesovergideon:

I’ve got some friends who are MASSIVE Kaidan/Shepard shippers, and I give them an awful lot of crap for it because I enjoy mocking those who are different than me. It’s personality flaws like this that give my music its heart. I’m a guilty person by nature, though, so I wrote a song about Kaidan in an effort to show them how much I care. I didn’t even make fun of his hair. Not one time.

This has a terrible synth bass track, and the vocals aren’t mixed properly, but I’m trying. And learning! Hopefully eventually I’ll record something that sounds nice. this isn’t me singing. I can’t sing. it is however the incomparable arch4ngel

Oh man, I love you so much. <3

When I heard that voice over, I knew my life had changed forever. The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind was the first game to truly immerse me in an alternate world, to give me that sense of now living in a completely alien universe. It is the game that ignited my passion for hardcore gaming: spending hours playing, digging into the lore, and learning languages.

skiesovergideon:

You know what makes me uncomfortable, fandom? The fact that we can’t stop complaining about Thane dying.

Do you know what that makes me uncomfortable, fandom? Because I will probably die of a disease that will never be cured. I relate to Thane on a profound level. He was my Shepard’s love…

skiesovergideon:

Imagine for a minute that you’re 19. You’re in your second year at college, three states away from home. It’s a week before midterms. Your roommate wakes you up sometime around two in the morning and says, “You just had a seizure, are you okay?” You’re disoriented, you’re confused. You feel strange. It takes a moment to realize you’re covered in sweat, your body is exhausted, and you can’t move anything on your left side - not your arms, not your legs. Your left eye is still closed. When you try to tell your roommate that, no, you’re not okay, you can barely talk.

Thankfully, your roommate is a nursing student. She helps you up, makes sure you can breathe and that you’re as comfortable as possible, and then hurries down the hall to the RA’s room, leaving the door open in case something goes wrong and you need to shout - inarticulately because your brain isn’t functioning well enough to form words - that something is wrong. You feel trapped in your own body. You’re terrified and scared, and no matter how much you think move, you can’t do a damn thing with your left hand. Even though it’s freezing, you don’t get dressed. Your roommate and your RA help you into shoes and a coat, and they all but carry you to your car, which your roommate has to drive because you physically can’t. No one is there to see you, and under all your fear of why can’t I move, why is breathing hard and I’m dying, I must be dying is a horrible embarrassment that someone might see your ass being carted to the dorm lobby.

bunnika:

I seriously just had to teach my mother some basics of parenting.

Both photos are of my daughter in October, the first in 2011, the second in 2012. I let her pick out her own clothes, shoes, haircuts, hair colors, anything superficial, really. She’s too young to understand the permanence of piercings, so she doesn’t have any. But hair grows, shoes get grown out of, clothes go threadbare. These things don’t really matter—shouldn’t really matter—but anyone raising a gender-variant child knows the world isn’t that kind.

My daughter recently requested a haircut like mine. A long flop on top, pixie-length fade on the back and sides. She’s been bugging me for weeks to color her hair again, I just haven’t had the time. But today she came to me with the same shyness she keeps developing when outside our home; she’s being pressured by peers and family to look “normal,” to grow her hair long and uncolored, to dress a certain way (she hates to match), to indulge in self-consciousness, and alter or not alter her appearance to gain the approval of others, and society at large.

THIS FUCKING INFURIATES ME.

I called my mother tonight, because my daughter had become shy again, and didn’t want to color her hair anymore, and she said it was because of what her Nana had said to her. My mother told me we should get that spray-on Halloween hair colors, so it wouldn’t be so “permanent” and my daughter could be “normal” again to avoid being bullied.

IT IS NOT THE JOB OF THE VICTIM TO STOP BEING BULLIED. IT IS THE BULLY’S JOB TO STOP BULLYING.

I know she gets teased sometimes, and we always talk about it. She stays strong and confident, so long as she has the support of those around her. But what that support falters, or pulls a 180, she’s left to crash.

She also gets teased for liking dinosaurs and not dolls. She gets teased for preferring roughhousing to playing house. She gets teased for liking Lightning McQueen and not Cinderella. Where do we draw the line?

My mother thinks this is a “minor” thing, that it’s better to just blend in. But it would plant the seed of doubt, it forms the foundation for queer kids staying in the closet, for disabled kids to feel worthless, for young girls accepting abusive partners. This is not “minor,” it is fucking MAJOR, because this is my daughter’s foundation, and it will shape her life.

Support your fucking kids. Let them be who they want to be, look how they want to look, and play how they want to play. And make sure they know that you will love them no matter what.

arch4ngel: This is the story Of a mighty forest of chest...

Sun, 10 Feb 2013 21:08:22 -0500

arch4ngel:

This is the story
Of a mighty forest of chest hair
It belonged to the sexiest dwarf
Who most will admit was beyond compare

He stood 4’3”
Had eyes that shone like lyrium
Had no beard but his chest alone
Had my heart from day one

Varric when I met you
Didn’t have a sovereign to my name
I’d met your awful brother
But you weren’t the same

It must’ve been cupid’s arrow
You shot at me that day
Introduced me to Bianca
And now all I can say

Varric! You bastard!
You wooed me with your low-cut shirt
And then you left me out to dry

And Varric, Baby
I’d drop everyone else I’ve ever known
If you’d promise to be my only guy

Who could ever choose a mage
Or a sparkly warrior?
A pirate who doesn’t wear pants
A blood mage who wears fur?

I’ll tell you what they share
Why they don’t make my heart explode
They don’t have any chest hair
So they won’t be exploring my Deep Roads

But Varric, he can
He can go spelunking any time
As long as he promises to be true

And Varric, baby,
I’ll love you till we fall into the sky
I’ll do almost anything for you

You may be married to your crossbow
But she ain’t the only one
She can never love you
Like a Champion

Varric! Darling!
Let me be a lumberjack
In the forest on your chest

And Varric, baby,
Let me get a little closer to you
And learn why Hawke’s the very best
(Even Andraste’d be impressed)
(At that thing he’s got on his chest)

“I’ve tried to forget about this side of myself. Justice is… so strong, sometimes the Wardens seem insignificant. But seeing that poor bastard brings it all back. The darkspawn taint, the call of the Archdemon… it’s inside me, as much a part of me as Justice. You should find someone else, love. You don’t want all the ugliness I’m going to bring into your life.”

This is very much W.I.P. of course, but it should give you an idea of what I have in mind :) - this is not the actual sequence, rather several bits of it put one after another. The background is just a mock-up, and the transitions will be smoother.
