speaking of the knife girl!
angrbodic
and i just realized i forgot to take one of my meds. whoops
angrbodic
it's okay, mary, all alice knows that it's financially better
angrbodic
gwen, don't climb on joric
angrbodic
then a tag to geralt
angrbodic
gwen needs to tease people more during sexy times
angrbodic
angrbodic
man. tagging gwen with joric reminds me that gwen feels abandoned (even though she wasn't)
angrbodic
and she does have some resentment to arthur. but also, gwen, baby girl...
angrbodic
i could easily go off on a mini essay about that
angrbodic
she'd talk about it to somoene if, you know, she didn't feel ashamed by those feelings and wasn't so slow to connect the emotional dots
angrbodic
fairandbright i still love this mess
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
/drapes myself across this cr
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
now he's gonna sing for her, yaaas
angrbodic
HAA
angrbodic
no that's cute
angrbodic
this is such a good dynamic: it's a celt and a viking(?)
angrbodic
kinda sorta viking
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
pseudo viking only from the mountains instead of sailing ships cuz i'm lazy
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
and it's a good aesthetic.
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
well, technically he's based on the nords of skyrim, the avvar from dragon age, and real life vikings.
angrbodic
it's okay, we still stan joric in this house
angrbodic
and this gives me an excuse to use this song for gwen, finally
King Arthur Official Soundtrack | The Politics & The...
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
hell yeah
angrbodic
i love this movie so much
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
i've never seen it! but then again, i've seen very few things, lol. i'm really picky.
angrbodic
it's okay
angrbodic
it was made by guy ritchie so it's over the top
angrbodic
but it's seriously one of my favorite versions of arthur
angrbodic
arthur is such a smart ass
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
oh nice. usually he's just sort of there... being king...
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
i've seen mists of avalon... and was the one with sam neill called merlin? i can't remember. saw that too.
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
loved me the made for tv fantasy mini series back in the day
angrbodic
the one with sam neil is literally called "merlin"
angrbodic
and... honestly, i was not a fan of mists of avalon >_>
angrbodic
and i know that's like. blasphemous to say around other arthurian fans
angrbodic
guy ritchie did a REALLY interesting take on the legend
angrbodic
arthur basically grew up not knowing he was king
angrbodic
and was doing a lot of shifty side hustles lmao
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
all i remember about mists of avalon was the lancelot/guinevere/arthur threeway, lol
angrbodic
fairandbright: RIGHT??
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
arthur was dull but that got my attention!
angrbodic
hilariously, when i saw the TV movie back in high school, it was an inspiration to what i made for gwen's story
angrbodic
like this version of gwen was just made out of the fact "wow, i don't like guinevere in that movie"
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
oh snap!
angrbodic
but i do like the take on morgan not being evil, i do like that and incorporated that into gwen's role
angrbodic
i'm sorry i just
angrbodic
i have a lot of feelings
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
well that's damn cool
stacy fakename
shout out to legend of the sword, one of my fav king arthur movies
angrbodic
angrbodic
i need more smart ass arthur
stacy fakename
the first time i watched it i was 10 hours and 5 drinks into a 14 hour flight and it sure was a wild ride
angrbodic
also another tidbit: gwen's arthur is inspired by guy ritchie's version
stacy fakename
NICE
angrbodic
he swears like a sailor, will mouth off...
angrbodic
lancelot is the only level-headed one out of this trio
stacy fakename
arthur like "i can and will fistfight anyone that looks at me sideways"
angrbodic
fuck yes
angrbodic
or when he was interacting with the mage
angrbodic
"are you falling for me like i am for you "
angrbodic
just... turns around backwards on the horse
angrbodic
then falls off
angrbodic
when they put the bag over his head, he's all like "you know i can still see, right?" i lose it
angrbodic
angrbodic
angrbodic
"i don't fight!" headbutts everyone in the nearest vicinity
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
/pushes glasses up nose. lemme give this the ol' critical analysis.
angrbodic
hahaha
angrbodic
angrbodic
arthur going out of his way to annoy her lmao
stacy fakename
i loved the mage so much
stacy fakename
im sad they never made more movies
angrbodic
:-( i know
angrbodic
it's frustrating because the only people that disliked it were the critics
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
this is a kicking soundtrack
angrbodic
fairandbright: UGH it really is
angrbodic
i have it on spotify
angrbodic
now i have a bunch of feeling over this movie
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
good! have all the feels!
angrbodic
i just love this movie so much!?
angrbodic
doesn't help i adopted thor the same day i saw it
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
oh, how sweet!
stacy fakename
yeah like every real human person i know who watched it loved it
stacy fakename
(movie critics arent real people)
angrbodic
angrbodic
fairandbright: feelings of abandonment come up gwen immediately wants to focus on joric
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
d'aww
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
i mean in his world he's all alone. family's all dead or in another clan where he'll never see her again, friends are all terrified of him because he's a rage monster, he avoids people in case he snaps.
angrbodic
ugh i love his backstory
angrbodic
she wants him to have freedom so much
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
he's my sad rage boy and i luff him.
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
sob, someday!
angrbodic
we love your rage boy
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
his story doesn't have an ending. he's forever stuck still searching for a cure. ;_;
angrbodic
noooo!
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
well, only because it's not like a novel i'm writing or anything! in rp it could happen.
angrbodic
ahhh! okay
angrbodic
i know that feeling
angrbodic
gwen is a teensy bit different in RP land
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
funny enough, i've tried multiple times to rp it out with other ocs as the one going on a journey with him to find and mage and all but one have been dropped.
angrbodic
omg
angrbodic
so you know, i am down for that
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
yup. kind of sad because i'd like to get to the end, you know?
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
oh ho ho, reeeally
angrbodic
no, absolutely, i feel this
angrbodic
yeah!!
angrbodic
my gwen is an alternate already, so
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
that would be awesome!
angrbodic
and her characterization is tweaked slightly for RP
angrbodic
but i already have her story set up separately
angrbodic
it's something i'd like to turn into a web comic because i cannot write well as i draw
angrbodic
but yeah dude, i'm open for that
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
so are you talking about a separate psl?
angrbodic
i mean. it can be a thing in a PSL
angrbodic
but also in noctium
angrbodic
story-wise, that's the whole comic thing i have
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
i'm unsure if i want him to be cured permanently in noctium since that's a big drive for his character
angrbodic
oh, dude, i feel you
angrbodic
but hey, if that's something that can be out of noctium that's cool, too!
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
but if you wanted an alternate take, even in the noctium verse, we could do that. or a separate world. whichever.
angrbodic
but she'll still support him, regardless
angrbodic
yeah, that's fine by me!
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
woohoo! very fun
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
did you want to keep talking about it here, or we could do a private plurk so i'm not clogging your tag one.
angrbodic
hey, whichever works! i don't mind if people spam my plurks, honestly
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
okay, cool! did you prefer noctium verse for this? or what to do another location?
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
*want
angrbodic
i'm cool with noctium-verse... why not both?
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
hm, i'm thinking we tweak it somehow so we aren't crossing the streams too much in what we'll be playing out in game canon and what's psl canon
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
like maybe they start in noctium and get zapped someplace else?
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
and he's like "oh, shit, i don't have my magical shield over my rage anymore."
angrbodic
oohhh that sounds fun
angrbodic
and i understand
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
angrbodic
this also works because i have not decided quite yet on arthur's fate, only gwen's
angrbodic
but i'm also leaning heavily into more of the welsh motif of arthur being a psychopomp
angrbodic
because no one does that and that's actually really cool
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
whoa i just googled that. hell yeah.
angrbodic
he's like... either apart of the wild hunt or the leader of the wild hunt
angrbodic
it's so interesting because the romances really divert far from that
angrbodic
but yeah, i haven't decided on that mess
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
anyway, what myself and others had planned out in those psls was a sort of quest for a cure with some dead ends along the way and time for ~romance~ to develop. i'm thinking they could run into some danger and hijinks on their journey.
angrbodic
sweet
angrbodic
i love writing action things
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
and i would always be like "okay, what does your character want to get out of the journey?" so it wasn't just hyperfocused on joric's goal.
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
but since gwen wants to help him, does she need additional motivivation?
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
motivation
angrbodic
gwen's is the same as his: she wants to control her abilities
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
oo, lovely
angrbodic
but also, silly, but gwen wants to like. not be alone and have someone to care for and be cared about. which is why she does become a mother later in the future
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
so yeah, there's some magical macguffin or wise mage at the end of it all that can help them.
angrbodic
nice
angrbodic
gwen does not want to go berserk on people
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
angrbodic
and also, another motivation for her is like she wants more of a sense of self. she's been raised in a way that she's been told what to do, who she should be, and how to think
angrbodic
and gwen as she is in noctium is on the beginning of a path of doing exactly that
angrbodic
and that's also why she's honestly so flirty and likes intimacy :X
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
nice. with her and joric traveling alone, they'll def be making plans together and he'll want her input.
angrbodic
ugh, i love it
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
me tooooo
angrbodic
that's gwen basically at her core, just trying to feel out who she is a s a person and why her wants are without someone telling her. because she's tired of being told what to do
angrbodic
this is why this is on her profile https://images.plurk.com/6hUenuQ558AWP6QtGSlEXP.png
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
rofl
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
do we want them to still have gem magic once they get zapped away?
angrbodic
UHHH (aha) honestly, i don't see a need for it? at least for gwen
angrbodic
especially since the idea of turning into something terrifies her
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
that's cool with me! joric will be like "aww, can't fly anymore."
angrbodic
adlfjsfs
angrbodic
sorry, joric
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
his clan is really, really hype over birds, lmao
angrbodic
yeah, transforming into anything just makes gwenhwyfar feel more demonic. it's also why she was freaking out at crowley turning into a snake
angrbodic
THAT'S CUTE, THO
angrbodic
gwen's family is into horses, so that works out
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
meanwhile joric's out here like "don't even know what a demon is."
angrbodic
that's okay, joric
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
d'aww they're animal people
angrbodic
someday, she'll introduce you to crowley
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
and then he'll get it
angrbodic
yeah, horses were very important during gwen's time
angrbodic
she'll just. tell joric one day... demons' true forms are beyond human comprehension
angrbodic
and no joke, that keeps her up at night
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
no doubt! they didn't use them where joric grew up. too steep.
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
oof
angrbodic
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
aww
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
that's sad
angrbodic
not sure if you ever seen the x files
angrbodic
but that moment where scully comes across that angel
angrbodic
that whole episode was about the nephilim and angels
angrbodic
wow, i nearly forgot about that until now and that episode was genuinely creepy
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
no, i never did
angrbodic
haha, it's all good!
angrbodic
i don't know where to watch it without paying for it
angrbodic
becaause i'm cheap
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
understandable
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
is there anything else we should hash out before doing or psl?
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
*our
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
it's late and spelling is beyond me, it seems
angrbodic
hmmm, i can't really think of anything at the moment, but i'm sure i will, later
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
yeah, we can revisit it tomorrow!
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
for now, i must sleep.
angrbodic
angrbodic
have a good night!!
𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂
thanks, you too!
