Pinned

there's a bunch of people in my house that weren't here before so making a no-frills pinned post that maybe i'll make nice and pretty if i get around to it but i'm sticking to my "i'm just here to have fun" motto.

you can call me joel (he/him). this blog is just meant as a place for me to play with my blorbos and post cool pictures of them + reblog stuff that i like. i may occasionally post meta or worldbuilding headcanons if the mood strikes.

messages to my inbox are always welcome, as are replies to any of my posts. i really value discussion and generally speaking, if there's something that i just want to post into the void and not receive anything about, reblogs will probably be turned off/i'll try to remember to say so. otherwise, assume anything's up for curiosity or engagement.

i'll potentially get around to a tag navigation eventually, but if you're looking for my gposes, the tag is #*dawntread.

currently playing: 6.2 (please do not send any asks or replies that spoil anything past this patch)

vierapril day 7 -- privacy

past the swarms of chirurgeons, aetherologists and various scholars seeking to cure the warrior of light's severe aetherspurn, eyrie's small apartment in old sharlayan was always a refuge of privacy and security during the long months.

#GPOSE.#vierapril #im sitting here with my eyrie themed conspiracy board and red thread and connecting this to your prompt from .. day 6?#of eyrie and their brother. and then also a gpose of yours i saw awhile ago with zenos #the conspiracy board is titled ''eyrie and dying in people's arms'' /lh #no but. this is so. houuughhhh #something also about the lines getting blurred at the assumed slow end of eyrie's life. hOUUHHHG. it's beautiful and sad and i'm crying op

VIERAPRIL: Day 4 + 5: Duality + Shadow

Fenrisulfr seems a mostly protective presence towards Sevyn, yes, but his terms and methods sometimes differ from what others would think just, or noble...

#GPOSE.#vierapril #re: op's tags #i honestly thought it was on purpose because something about blurring the lines between the self and the other #which one of us is me and which one of us is you #protection as possession or subsumption #(because smth. smth. sevyn's eyes turning red [like fenrisulfr's] vs. fenrisulfr suddenly having no sleeves like sevyn)

"But now I know I'm not alone, not the only one for whom the flowers weep. I won't ask what you thought as you kneeled beside the Elpis or if you only did it at Meteion's insistence. Nevertheless, I thank you. To know that you, too, have experienced suffering… is a comfort."

apropos of literally nothing: i kept telling people i was gonna talk about exarch/hydaelyn & g'raha/venat parallels and i'm far too tired to make like a proper essay of it + such an essay requires me replaying both SHB and EW at the very least to gather Textual Evidence™ and i don't wanna so we're gonna go off of memory.

knowing me this is gonna go all over the place but i'll try to at least organize it into the bullet point version.
