I think my favorite baldurs gate 3 fanfic trope so far is everybody coming up with full names for their pc’s that can be abbreviated or shortened into the “Tav” we all know and love.

Unnnnnnfortunately I haven't actually added anything to a WIP for a hot second so you're getting a bit from my brainstorming/outlining doc.
I want this to feel like a Ghibli movie, really. Much quiet. Very vibes. Nature as a third character in the scene.
I don't yet have a plot to go with the desired vibes, but hopefully inspiration will strike soon. 🤞
I’m writing again, I swear. From a fun TavStarion fic I’m working on:
He did remember. He hadn’t thought he did. The discussion with the mirrors, and she’d listened to him, and then teased him in that unflapping, deadpan way of hers. She’d complimented his vanity, and it had been oddly thrilling to hear her describe elements of his body that he knew, technically, existed, but could never truly confirm for himself.
He hadn’t been sure she’d understood at the time. What it meant that he simply hadn’t seen himself in two hundred years, hadn’t seen whatever it was about himself that worked in all the ways Cazador had had him work. Surely he had no idea what worked about it for Ishi. He’d barely been trying with her, after all. They just sort of fell in together, and slowly made a habit of it. She didn’t count, but she must have been able to tell. Petty vanity kept him alive. Useful, even. Shouldn’t he know his own damned tools?
“It’s a good idea,” he said softly. “You thought of me? Of doing this, I mean. For me.”
“Not immediately,” she admitted. “But I did eventually.”
no one has commented on the Bill Seacaster offering to be Pok Gukgak’s informant (for a price), and then having a pre-scheduled, possibly regular phone call for this sort of thing.

i am. so sorry if i have ever used the phrase “i have an au where—” and led you to believe that there is an actual fic out there for you to read rather than, at best, a post where i explain the concept, and at worst it is simply something that lives in my brain
if it helps i also wish there was a fic
I’m not sorry

I think it would be very funny if after Obi-Wan kills Maul in Rebels, an entire small army of Mandalorians turned up in the desert (led by Sabine, who got tipped off by Ezra) to harass him into becoming the rightful leader of their government
Ezra: Hey Sabine? You know what would make Bo Katan absolutely HATE you?
Sabine: I'm all ears.
Later
Obi Wan: I DON'T WANNA!
Sabine: YES YOU DO! IT WOULD BE SO FUNNY!
Vader, presenting his Space PowerPoint to Emperor Palpatine: And thats why Obi-Wan is secretly leading the Mandalorians and I must confront him.
Palpatine, having heard that name 5641 too many times since becoming emperor: Not to sound like the Jedi I worked very hard to destroy, but have you ever considered…letting go?
Meanwhile Obi has been made Leader of the Mandalorians and somehow Luke is his heir and son now and SOMEHOW, SOMEWHERE he just KNOWS Qui Gon is laughing his butt off!
Bail starts to hear rumors and then those rumors turn into something more substantial and. Is this it? This hadn’t been the plan, but then again nothing ever quite goes according to plan when it comes to Obi-Wan so.
Obi-Wan wakes up to the entire rebellion on his involuntarily obtained front porch.
Obi needs a snack, to be a blanket burrito, and some cuddles ASAP at this rate.
Vader sends the chipped 212th after Obi Wan only for them to get snagged and dechipped by Rex's operation and now they are on their way to rescue their poor General. How did he get into this mess in the first place!?
Obi-Wan trying and failing to get someone to fight him so he can pass off this job that he absolutely did not apply for. Cody standing there threatening anyone who so much as looks like they’re considering it. Their ideas of what a rescue entails are maybe slightly different.
Obi Wan keeps accidentally becoming more and more popular as the Mandalore and at this rate, he's going down in history as one of the greatest of all time. And he declared war on the Empire by accident when he told one of his Mandalorian Advisors what he had seen at the Temple. Dead Children are an EXCELLENT motivator for Mandalorians.
Getting rid of the anti-clone sentiment was on purpose. Starting a competition among all former death watch members to see who can successfully bring the most clones to Mandalore was not on purpose but was welcomed just the same. Stealing a good chunk of the Empire’s army was a great added bonus. The chips coming out of so many clones brought him more joy than Obi-Wan had known in years.
However. The plan was most definitely not to take over the Empire.
Cody just tells him, "For what it's worth, I always thought you would make a better Chancellor than the one we had."
Obi Wan just sighs.
Bail thinks the whole thing is hilarious.
Neither takes Obi-Wan up on any of his very generous offers to replace him. Obi-Wan is most put out.
Of course not! Why would they? He's doing a great job! Everyone's happier! Vader has been literally eating the drywall over this and going insane! Why would they take over?
Everyone is happier, including Obi-Wan, he’s just not about to give in and also will never, ever believe he’s the right one for this job.
They've even rescued surviving Jedi! Yoda is back! Luke and Leia are friends now! Reva is there! But Obi Wan is still convinced he's not the best person for the job, but like all he does, he does his best.
Maybe his title is "Mandalore the Doubtful"? History books 0hrase it as him being skeptical of the Empire and their promises.
These books start to appear about three years after the former Emperor Palpatine’s timely demise. Yoda has the entire collection stashed away somewhere, Obi-Wan just knows it.
Yoda: Education the Younglings, we must, Doubtful Mandalore.
Obi Wan: Not you too.
Bo-Katan started the name and it backfired spectacularly. She may work hard, but the 212th works harder.
212th: Oh? Gonna make our Jedi sound incompetent? WELL NOW HE WAS SKEPTICAL OF THE EMPIRE AND RIGHTFULLY SO!
I feel like this an excellent time for Quinlan Vos to show up. Just right in the middle of all of this.
And no Obi, he's not taking the job either. He's here to swear ALLEGIANCE to you! Mostly because he knows it's going to drive Obi Wan INSANE. This is better than the time they snuck out of the Temple to go play Illegal Sabbac Games! (Not that playing Sabbac was illegal, but the people running it sure were!)
He has also somehow already gotten himself officially titled “First Minion.” It’s on his ID and everything. And since his slicing skills are sufficiently above Obi’s, it’s going to be staying that way. Cody is mad that he didn’t think of that first. Rex mentions that the title of consort is still open because he hasn’t had enough opportunities to be a little shit recently.
Cody: THEN I'LL BE CONSORT THAN! TAKE THAT QUINLAN!
Rex: (dying of laughter)
Now, Ahsoka shows up and thinks the whole thing is hilarious and swears herself to service as well. She's Minion 2.
This is the “Emperor Han Solo” post, The Obi-wan Edition.
So I’ve been playing Baldur’s Gate 3 (as one does).
I was always gonna eventually, but one of my Real Life Friends is a Real Gamer, Bro, and was so excited for me to play that I got it a little earlier than I’d planned. We are loosely planning a debrief session after I finish Act 1, so he can have his opportunity to Fanboy while I try to go TOO hard on the fangirling—he’s delightful, but not really ready for anything that comes out of Tumblr.com.
Anyways. He’s been very vocal about really not liking Astarion at all, and LOVING Karlach (understandable, of course) but I still don’t know how to explain to him that while I agree Astarion is 100% *that bitch*, I also romanced him the SECOND I hit that “medium approval” threshold.
I am looking forward to our talk 😇

if shes your girl then why have i slowly been replacing her parts until there’s nothing left of her original body? is she then still your girl?
They ship of theseus’d my girl
Can’t have shit in Detroit
this actually perfectly demonstrates the transitive property of memes: you can replace a meme piece by piece until it only structurally resembles the original, and it is, in fact, the same meme.
call that the meme of theseus thesis
tumblrites can have a little intertextuality as a treat
my naym is ship and when i’m broke the broken part from me they toke
replace the part had been the plan but in the morn hand door car man
*me shoving transitive properties into my purse* sorry, I have to go
We owe the reddit refugees an apology for making them see posts like this
no we don’t this shit is enrichment in their new enclosure
*slaps roof of Tumblr* This baby can fit so many rare vintages, you just have to go deep enough, there are some great memes in the cellar, come see
Hold on, I have to go look something up
Okay, yeah, this is funny.

What was suggested: dick grayson/kate bishop
What is being written: Kate gets stranded in the Nolan Dark knight universe and through luck and sheer bloody-mindedness becomes Bruce Wayne's personal assistant. To do this, she thinks about the most take-no-bullshit-from-idiot-genius-billionaires she knows, and creates what she calls her "pepperpottsona"
whenever anyone from Kate's universe finds out about this, their first response is "oh, yeah, that makes sense" followed immediately by "so is he in love with you yet?" Tony and Pepper and Rhodey think this is the funniest thing btw
Bruce: wh. What. Why would I? Why would I be in love with--
Tony: if it truly is a pepperpottsona the billionaire genius playboy philanthropist boss that she takes no shit from will fall in love with her. Obviously.
Bruce: excuse me?
Tony: unless of course you are NOT a genius but are actually a billionaire dumbass playboy philanthropist.
Bruce:
Tony: that's the final form of a pepperpottsona. The billionaire falls in love with her, he starts dying, puts her in charge of his company--
Bruce: you know, I wouldn't mind seeing that
Tony: RIGHT?!?!?
Tony: anyway
Tony: you in love with her yet?
No I'm sorry this AU is so funny to me
So Kate's like, pretty sure Bruce Wayne is the Batman. It feels like the dumbest fucking thought to have, but here she is, thinking it.
It's important to know that Kate loves spending That Wayne Cash™ and that Bruce is unaware or doesn't care, depending on the purchase. So once Kate is FAIRLY certain he's that caped weirdo with the gravelly voice, she starts commissioning art. She follows a lot of artists on social media, professional and not professional, digital and physical, soft sculpture and cartoons, everything. And she starts finding the Real People artists and has them do a piece of Batman, any pose, any location, just has to be workplace appropriate. She'll pay double (with Bruce Wayne's money), what? No, no rush, I'm just paying you double.
Bruce doesn't pay attention to the first piece that goes up by her desk, or the second piece, but by the fourth he's getting mildly concerned. Ms. Bishop has never shown any interest in Batman that was out of the ordinary, and certainly not so focused or. well. Slightly obsessive?
The day she sets out the handmade Batman plushie (it's more like a bat in a Batman costume, it's actually kind of cute) he breaks and asks her what the deal is. She looks him DEAD in the eye and says "I just think he's sort of interesting! Can't imagine the kind of person who would do that, though" and Bruce think she HAS to know, she HAS to be fucking with him, it's too absurd. But she doesn't say anything, she doesn't confront him, nobody comes to arrest him and nobody breaks the story of him being Batman...maybe he's just paranoid?
Anyway Kate's Batman Art Gallery starts to hit the office rumor mill and sometimes people from other floors will come to look at it and Bruce has to listen to Kate say things like "I'm kind of a fan" (absolutely no inflection) or "I can't imagine what he would be like to work for lolol!!! :)"
Lucius Fox comes to see it (he and Kate are buds) and he tells Alfred (Kate hasn't told him because she doesn't think she can keep it together) so the next time Bruce works from home and Kate is over (she's his personal assistant of course she has to be there) Alfred tells her what a LOVELY thing she's doing, supporting all of these artists, has she found any in Gotham? She has? Oh lovely! You know, I've just had a splendid idea! (Bruce is filled with dread) Batman is Gotham's protector, people seem to like him well enough (Bruce got shot at five times last week, not including Hawkeye shooting him in what he assumes was pure irritation), what if you put together an art show at a local gallery, featuring local artists' Batman-themed works? (Bruce is disowning Alfred) Proceeds from sales would go to the artists, of course, creatives need to eat, too, but perhaps Bruce could match the amount sold and donate it to an after school arts program aimed at keeping at risk youth off the streets, that seems like something Batman would approve of since he fights crime, don't you think, Bruce?
Bruce doesn't kill people but he is starting to warm up to the idea.
Kate's like OMG ALFRED GENIUS clearly the brains of the operation, gives him a kiss on the cheek and leaves to go make some calls and Bruce is NOT pouting OR sulking. Go away, Alfred.
Ok but (1) is he in love with her yet, and (2) has she roasted the absolute SHIT out Green Arrow to Oliver Queen’s face yet?
