I hope every writer who sees this writes LOADS the next few months. Like freetime opens up, no writers block, the ability to focus, etc etc you're able to write loads & make lots of progress <3
Passing along for all the writers out there!
Something that I get chills about is the fact that the oldest story told made by the oldest civilization opens with "In those days, in those distant days, in those ancient nights."
This confirms that there is a civilization older than the Sumerians that we have yet to find
Some people get existential dread from this
Me? I think it's fucking awesome it shows just how much of this world we have yet to discover and that is just fascinating
@makaeru peer review cos this made me check when the Sumerians happened and I forget how recent history is for every other continent. 7000 - 8000 years ago just isn't that long when you're in Australia, and the amount of detailed history we have access to here is wonderful and should be recognised more internationally
Source (non Aboriginal)
And a quote I picked out from a longer interview with an Aboriginal local elder about the area where he touched on the history
Source (the rest of the interview is really interesting and all transcribed, have a look if you're curious)
This is part of my Ancient Civilizations class that I teach, which does a whole week about Australia and the Torres Strait Islands because I was sick of never seeing them represented in USAmerican history contexts. With the help of @micewithknives and @acearchaeologist I've learned so many incredible things about Australia's past and it's been incredibly rewarding to share them with students.
My favorite fact about Aboriginal oral history is the fact that we pretty recently discovered that the Aboriginal myth of the 7 Sisters, an origin story for the Pleiades star cluster, accurately reflects a point TEN THOUSAND YEARS AGO when two stars in the constellation got close enough together to no longer be distinguishable by the naked eye.
The story? 6 sisters running from something that took their 7th sister.
as a gilgar gunditj woman, i was not expecting to see my culture on my dash.
thank you for spreading our words and treating our culture with respect.
i get asked regularly for photos of jpeg and it honestly feels like this every time
i have been informed of how foolish it was to post this without an actual photo of her. my apologies. i present: miss jpeg 🤲
“people won’t be friends with you if you’re mean to them” is something you have GOT to learn in adulthood if you never learned it as a shut-in internet-socialized youth. you can’t just go up and say to ppl to shut the fuck up and kill themselves all the time and then expect people to genuinely care for you.

Baldur's Gate 3 (2023) dev. Larian Studios Meeting the main companions
because @robotslenderman enabled me, I drafted up an Antivan Crow Rook.
Alessia 'Rook' de Riva, Viago's half-sister and personal headache, Teia's favourite sister-in-law up-and-coming assassin, and the one who's gonna commit a lil oopsie doopsie while trying to stop Solas 😜
I'm honestly kind of amazed at how true Alessia stayed to this design and concept, like I think she's genuinely the first pre-designed OC to survive contact with a game o.o
Moss, lilac, dandelion
Thank you Dusty!!! <3
Moss: Does Rook remember their mother?
Oh yeah, Alessia lived with her mother until she was twelve, which is when she was given her choice between living in exile or becoming a Crow. Their following reunion was also their last when Mirabelle was killed by a rogue Crow during a botched contract, specifically to spite Alessia, and she ended up dying in her arms.
Mirabelle had a big influence on Alessia, being the source of her love of art and Antiva, but she was very opposed to her becoming a Crow. She was terrified of it making a monster of her daughter, or that she would be killed as a result of political intrigue between the Talons, especially so far as Viago was concerned, but in the end she inspired Alessia to cling to her desire to be a protector of Antiva and that memory carried her even in the fight against Elgar'nan.
Lilac: What is one of Rook’s happiest memories?
The night of her graduation into being a full-fledged Crow; she spent the entire evening drinking and partying with her friends until she was sick and Viago had to drag her home. It was pretty much the last night everything was normal before the Antaam invaded and changed everything.
Dandelion: What type of parent is rook?
The kind who is somehow the most loving and caring and gentle person in the world, but is still very capable of the same kinds of casual cruelty and abuse that was inflicted on her if it means improving their odds of survival. She's a step up from the likes of Caterina as she draws a hard line over the cruelty being restricted exclusively to training and never following them outside of those designated times and places, and she prefers to encourage unity among Crows rather than rivalries and division...
But that doesn't change the fact that she would put any child of her's through those 'necessary' cruelties if she thought it would help them. She's still a Crow at the end of the day and she believes that she genuinely benefitted from being tortured and traumatised, both as a Crow and when fighting the Evanuris. Given that she's met all of her predecessor protagonists, she knows better than to assume that the world will just stay fixed and she and Lucanis would agree that their children would need to be prepared for any eventuality.
friend is trying to convince me this is a common experience and I do not believe her, so
Do you expect to be paid back if you pay for something for your friend while you’re hanging out? (I.E. a ride, a meal, a trinket.)
Yes, always
Yes, but only if it’s above a limit of money
No, never
I don’t buy things for my friends.

For a more illustrative example, say you go to the movies with a friend and you buy them popcorn, do you expect them at some point to send you money back via cash or through an app of some kind? Will you be upset if they don’t?

Iris, Rosemary, and Holly for Alessia?
Thank you lovely!!
Iris: Is Rook religious? Are there any moments in their past that made them come to this decision?
She is though it's more a product of her upbringing in Antiva and the heavy Chantry presence in the country rather than personal experiences or moments of religious poignancy, so it's not something she ever put serious thought into so much as it was a fact of life; the Maker is real, Andraste was his prophet, you know. It wasn't until certain revelations came about that she was forced to re-examine what it all meant for the Chant of Light and what had previously been unshakable realities.
Rosemary: What is Rook’s earliest memory?
I feel like it would have been an interaction with a cat; probably something big with a lot of fur and the personality of a stern governess who would have battered the shit out of her (without using claws) when she crossed a line. Probably just playing a bit too rough or being annoying and overstimulating the cat who decided that she was gonna find this lil shit's off button one way or another.
Holly: How do Rook and their partner(s) split up chores?
Depends. In the Lighthouse, Lucanis does his share of the cooking and Alessia keeps the team in order. Whenever they're home in Antiva, they don't do chores. They have servants for that.
Language of Flowers Rook asks
I don’t know why, but it never occurred to me that I could actually make one of these myself. Here are some Rook asks vaguely centered around Floriography.
(NSFW below the cut)
Actions and Views
Iris: Is Rook religious? Are there any moments in their past that made them come to this decision?
Monkshood: Does Rook ever think about their own death?
Black-eyed Susan: Does Rook believe justice exists? (The act/concept, not the character) Would they ever take justice into their own hands?
Snapdragon: What’s the most selfish thing they’ve ever done?
Marigold: Is Rook capable of cruelty?
Memories
Moss: Does Rook remember their mother?
Lilac: What is one of Rook’s happiest memories?
Forget-me-nots: What haunts Rook the most?
Rosemary: What is Rook’s earliest memory?
Rhododendron: Who was Rooks first kill? How do they feel about it?
Hellebore: What are some of their triggers? Would anyone notice if Rook was exposed to one?
Domesticity
Morning Glory: What is something Rook’s partners could do to make them melt romantically?
Wisteria: Write a scene where Rook dances with their partner.
Mistletoe: Describe a kiss that meant a lot to Rook.
Holly: How do Rook and their partner(s) split up chores?
Myrtle: How does Rook’s life (and potentially their partner’s life) change if they have children and/or get married?
Babies Breath: Would Rook want children? Do they ever have any?
Dandelion: What type of parent is rook?
It's genuinely funny that Reaver has enough beef with Theresa that he started Bowerstone's Anti Theresa Society and has its members infiltrate the Theresa Fan Club, like my guy, you were around her for all of ten minutes at best, why are you hating???
