all the cool kids have pinned posts and i’m at least a year late so let’s go

about

  • aeron
  • he/him
  • raging homo and i will simply Not tolerate masc negativity here y’all went too far with that
  • dw i’n gymro, a dw i’n dysgu cymraeg 
  • old enough to have a full time job with office besties so make of that what you will
  • i cosplay sometimes, i rarely share photos but if i do it’s #aj cosplays
  • i play dnd a lot and not necessarily in any kind of logical order
  • to that point i also DM a game in a very similar manner

blog content

  • bg3 / i said i wasnt going to get involved and then i did. i rotate astarion around my brain like a microwave meal and i think we should be allowed to kiss raphael actually. dyn is my main tav who is in a mlm (monster loving monster) relationship with astarion and sometimes halsin. the rituals are complex and unknowable.
  • critrole / im a c3 ho and im not interested in reading your meta on why caleb is autistic actually bc ive decided he is anyway and that’s enough for me thank u
  • destiny / dont get it twisted i play this game for saint-14 only
  • ac origins -  valhalla / bayek and eivor have me in a chokehold and i spent about 6 months writing frenzied alexios / thaletas content in between those two protags so you could say i enjoyed this trilogy more than anything else ac has ever given me
  • dragon age - mass effect / they get to share a category like a get-along t-shirt bc these are the only two braincells in my head that will survive a nuclear winter and this is the only way i can control them. i have many ocs. i always want to talk about them. i sent shepard to andromeda, and i rewrote thedas to cope with the harrowing ordeal of facing an egg as my villain. bioware will not let me rest.
  • ocs - dnd / i play in 2 campaigns, i dm one of my own. blorbo from my dnd is usually referring to maahes, he is an acquired taste so your mileage may vary in how far u can go before u simply want to block his tag. the good news is i wholly support curated dashboard experiences. the bad news is all of my ocs are equally hot messes of morality.
  • worldbuilding / you may see mentions of myridos; this is my homebrew world and eventual setting for some novels that i’d like to publish one day.

im not above shitposts or random stuff that makes me go hehe (fruity) and i generally do not engage in tumblr activism as a rule. you’re unlikely to find Real World Stuff˜ here unless it involves cymru or annibynaeth i gymru. i tag fandoms and art, i do not tag specific characters with enough consistency to make it safe for blocked tags. i’m open to dms/asks if you want a specific tag blocked - i can’t guarantee i’ll say yes, but i’m v nice about it i promise.

Please don't judge me for the background picture x) - I worked on this for so long and I felt like if I had to put more effort in the background I would never finish it

(and based on the response on the wip I posted that was not an option lmao!!)

Similar to the C1 fans whose support of Percy was directly proportionate to how much he acted like the Punisher, I think there's a decent contingent of C3 fans whose support of Ashton is directly proportionate to how much they validate online leftism.

I think a lot of people who proclaimed to be huge fans of Ashton in the episodes leading up to this were interested in a character who would play the Tumblr Hopepunk Ideal entirely straight—a scrappy underdog angry at societal injustices who was finally being validated and would become a hero that everybody would have to respect for being right. A lot of people projected various leftist ideals and activism onto the character, and completely missed that Ashton is often selfish and arrogant and that Taliesin has spent the entire campaign either implying or outright saying that Ashton is confidently wrong about a lot of things like every other PC Taliesin has played. Like with the C1 fans who started resenting Percy, I think some C3 fans are resenting Ashton right now because they're in this photo and they don't like it.
