Erstwhile Celticist

Amongst all of David's awards, you were recently named on the DILF list. Here's the top five: 1. Pedro Pascal, 2. Oscar Isaac. 3. David Tennant. 4. Mads Mikkelsen. 5. Cillian Murphy. Oh, and Michael Sheen came in-

#Micheal Sheen silence on this is deafening

Can we just notice that David gives zero shits about #1 and #2 this is purely a competition between two candidates and he is winning.

Have you ever found yourself wanting a metric ton of DAI music? Have you ever thought to yourself, aw man, DAI’s soundtrack was 15 hours shorter than I wanted it to be? If that sounds like you, then this is a link for you.

I’ve ripped all the music from this game - that is, all the ambient snippets of music that you hear while running around in the world, and all the music that happens in cutscenes - and it turns out there’s 16 hours (1.6 gigs) of it.

(- here’s the download link -)

So if you’ve found yourself wishing you had the heaps of music that never made it to the official soundtrack, you can now roll around in hours of it.

It got worse

yes yes i love shakarian because those two just understand each other intrinsically. but i am foaming at the mouth for more cross-cultural differences that don't quite translate. i want garrus to be horrified by the idea that milk comes out of humans and babies drink it. i want shepard to be grossed out that turian parents chew up food for their babies and spit it in their mouths. i want shepard to not quite realize that when she arches her neck it's actually super suggestive and "uh babe, why are you flirting with my father like that?" "what, no, i'm just stretching." i want garrus to not 100% understand sarcasm because humans don't have subvocals and why would they ever just lie boldly like that? i want shepard to get used to the idea that turians have never once evolved to use utensils when they eat (hello? they only have three fingers?) and has to come to terms with garrus gnawing at huge chunks of blue, way too undercooked pieces of meat with his claws. i want garrus to be awestruck with the different amount of ways that humans can style their hair, and how does that not hurt? you're yanking your fringe and clipping it back? are you sure that's comfortable? i want shepard to turn her translator off every now and again so that she could hear the little chirping noises garrus makes to himself when he's concentrating. i want garrus to secretly adore watching shepard curl into chairs and twist her limbs onto couches because there's simply no way he could ever bend like that and be comfortable. i just want more.

the mountain goats make music for people who spent their entire lives convinced they would die before they were 17 except now they're 26 and they have a job and friends and hobbies and they're not sure what they're meant to do now that they've survived

“I don’t think that I accepted that I wasn’t gonna die young until I was 26 or 27. I really don’t think I fully...when I was 14, 15, 16, 17–I mean I knew as sure as I know that I am wearing green shoes that I was going to die before much happened. It was a certainty for me. And I had shaken off the directly suicidal urge by the time I was 21 or 22, but I still was pretty sure I was going to die pretty young, it really felt like an inevitability. It takes a long time to realize no, you’ve changed...if you shared those feelings with people at some point you go, ‘well, I guess we’re going to stick around.’ And it’s a funky thing to admit because there’s a part of your inner younger self that kind of judges you for that.”

Happy birthday to AO3 🎂🎉

We all know that Astarion has some of the best lines in the game but nobody - NOBODY - told me how softly Gale's VA delivers that "I forget my Goddess" line... the breathlessness? the yearning?? hello

The UESP is proud to announce we have reached 100,000 articles! There is still so much more Elder Scrolls content to document, but this is a big milestone.

ONE MORE RUN BE ENOUGH

Chapter 4 of my Sam Coe fanfic is now up on AO3.

Pairing: Player Character x Sam Coe

Summary: After countless trips through the Unity, the Spacefarer is growing weary of the Starborn life. After fruitless searching for her original Sam Coe in every iteration, she starts to see something special about the Sam in this latest universe.

Warnings: Game canon typical violence, language, spoilers for end of main mission

Chapter 1

Chapter 2

Chapter 3

Chapters will be added daily for the next few days until complete

Chapter 5 is up on AO3. We are nearing the end...

The final chapter is up on AO3. Though there maaaaay* be a little teensy epilogue coming soon**... * definitely ** tomorrow

I like to think that Gale just zones out 1/4th of the way into an evil playthrough. You kill a bunch of innocent tieflings and Shadowheart has to take over as the moral compass because Mr. Dekarios has checked out completely.

Astarion approves

Minthara approves

Lae'zel approves

Shadowheart disapproves

Gale dissociates

Gale is husbandcoded. Think about it.

You have the rest of the companions who are hot and you can see yourself fucking and having intense relationships with; and then theres Gale who is the guy you sit down at dinner with to talk about how the tax returns this year werent as high as expected, or how you need to buy more fabric softener.

Like you cant imagine going grocery shopping with Astarion. But with Gale? Its like he belongs in the cereal aisle choosing the most organic brand of breakfast oatmeal.

“He belongs in the cereal aisle choosing the most organic brand of breakfast oatmeal.”

You g e t it

He was created to be married. He was created to cuddle up to and watch tv with. He was created to yell at kids fondly about running down the stairs. He was created to stress out about tax season with you. He was created to drive a shitty family car with the politest aggressive road rage. He was created-
