“Julie D’Aubigny was a 17th-century bisexual French opera singer and fencing master who killed or wounded at least ten men in life-or-death duels, performed nightly shows on the biggest and most highly-respected opera stage in the world, and once took the Holy Orders just so that she could sneak into a convent and bang a nun. If nothing in that sentence at least marginally interests you, I have no idea why you’re visiting this website.”
NEVER HAS THIS GIF BEEN MORE APPROPRIATE.
i have a new role model
(via penguinsongiraffes)
Every subsequent playthrough, I feel a little sicker and angrier every time I go through The Gallows.
Everything everyone says is awful and makes me full of haterage and sadtears.
This is still ACT. FUCKING. ONE. 8| This is going to go on for six more years. And Meredith doesn’t even have the lyrium idol, yet.
THRASK: The Starkhaven mages are here without bloodshed. I wish it felt like more of a victory. Meredith ordered three Starkhaven mages executed at random. To “teach them a lesson.” I’m afraid they’ve learned all too well. Grace has been preaching to the Circle mages, telling them it is better to be dead and free. I wonder if it was a mistake to bring her here at all.
ALAIN: I can’t believe you got Grace to turn herself in. Starkhaven was never like this. The templars beat us and no one says a thing. The templars won’t let me send mail out. I found a letter to my parents that they burned in the furnace. Ser Karras said if I tell anyone he’s been in my chambers, he’ll make me Tranquil.
Jesus FUCK I missed that dialogue with Alain, but christ.
And this is why I can never side with the Templars, in any playthrough, ever.
I just don’t understand how people can argue that mages are worse than templars. Yes, mages can lose control and turn into dangerous abominations that kill people. The Templars? The Templars are in full control of themselves when they execute or Tranquil mages as an example, or beat and rape their prisoners wards. They don’t have being possessed by a demon as an excuse for acting so heinously.
