Agreed. Plus there are no details about the specific job itself. It could just be a management job. I was considered a manager when I got my first supervisor position. I highly doubt she is the store manager.

‘i wish the freshman/the sophomore was more realistic. like today’s chapter, becca’s been working at uskea for, like, what? three months, tops? and she just lands the management position just like that. realism, who? it’s her very first job and she has no prior work experience, and yet? like, i get she’s been working hard to be a good employee, but that alone isn’t going to get you a management position after only three months (at most). it’s not that i want characters to suffer unnecessarily or anything, but i would like there to be some realistic consequences within this universe of rose petals and conveniences. i feel like it would have been better for becca to not get the management job, because that’s what would have actually happened irl in most situations, and i think it would help her realize even more that sometimes life just doesn’t go the way we want it, and sometimes it’s disappointing, but that we can still carry on and do our best in spite of that. but instead it feels like becca’s life lessons ring kind of hollow because everyone in the freshman sophomore universe always gets what they want in the end, they always win, they’re always deliriously happy and never disappointed and it’s just not realistic. again, i’m not saying i want everyone to suddenly suffer or only be ravaged with pain consequence after painful consequence, but it’s a bit too perfect of a world for the tfts cast, and it reads kind of boring and trite sometimes.’

What if the fade being ripped open in da:i has nothing to do with templars and mages but everything to do with those weird side quests in da:o like activating the places of power and watch guard of the reaching and summoning sciences
I mean the warden did a bunch of weird shit in da:o without fully understanding what any of it does

Wait, hold on. Okay, I can understand if Hero is a made up thing in this universe, but that would mean Endless Summer is as well, right? Which means the Endless Summer gang doesn't go to the same Hartfeld as they do. Which means all secret hopes of Zach having a crush on his upper-classman Diego could never happen. Yo.
bitch don’t we all
That is too relatable.

Kaitlyn groans face first into her pillow as she blindly seeks out her ringing phone. After a few seconds of searching she finds it on the nightstand and turns off the alarm.
As she lies there, she can’t help but wonder why she tortures herself like this. Why she insists on waking up at this ungodly hour on the regular when she could be fast asleep. Fast asleep and having wonderful dreams.
Kaitlyn groans again. She rolls over and throws the blankets off herself, the cool morning air an unwelcome wake-up call. She gets herself up out of the bed taking a moment to stretch and yawn and then grabs the black shirt hanging on the back of the chair in her room.
After throwing on the shirt she makes her why out of her room and heads to the bathroom. Once done, Kaitlyn cautiously makes her way down the stairs with the sporadic yawn on the way. She enters the hall to come to the door to MC’s room.
She gently knocks on the door and slowly opens it. She peers in with sleepy eyes to find a sleeping MC. Quietly shutting the door behind her, kaitlyn walks up to the bed and proceeds to crawl onto it and over her sleeping beauty.
The previously sleeping MC stirs from the sudden movement on the bed. “You’re late, Liao.” She groggily says. MC slowly opens her eyes to see kaitlyn’s bright smile.
“Shush you, I had to make a pit stop.” Kaitlyn says.
“For coffee I hope?” MC asks. Kaitlyn’s hair, face, and eyes beautifully light up in the morning light now creeping itself in through the window.
“No coffee. But I can give you some sugar.” Kaitlyn flashes a mischievous smile and instantly begins showering MC’s face with kisses.
“Ahh!” MC squirms and giggles from the affection. Satisified, Kaitlyn stops and crawls under the covers next to MC.
They both settle into the comfort of the bed and the warmth of the rising sun. Kaitlyn snuggles up against MC wrapping her arms around her, letting herself fall into this blissful moment.
It is then that Kaitlyn is reminded why she wakes up so early on the regular. And she will continue to do so for nothing could convince her to do otherwise.

I was inspired by this great piece of art and headcannon to write this little thing. I hope it was okay for me to write it. I have always enjoyed your art. Thank you so much for sharing it! 😄
Headcanon: Even tho Kaitlyn is not a morning person, she wakes up an hour earlier than she has to so she can go cuddle with her girlfriend <3 (when they don’t sleep together of course)
person: oh you write? are you any good?
me: yeah I guess
also me: he furrowed his brow, his brow furrowed, brow furrowing, his brow knit together, a wrinkle creased his brow, his brow browed browingly, brow—
I had a baby with Shale in camp and I cried.
Gee, I wonder why 😅
Dragon Age Story Generator. @a-shakespearean-in-paris & @kagetsukai thought you’d find this fun!
This just warms my heart. How could this not be canon?
The idea of Cassandra and Dorian being trashy romance novel buddies delights me to no end.
(Especially if they’re the sort of people who can keep a blank face while reading smut but completely lose it over fluff)
Just like old times

After Adamant. Inspired but this post.
I love this idea! 😃
Hey guys! Starting something new here; Choices Positivity! All you have to do is send an ask (anon or not) about a fellow Choices player and we’ll post it right here to share with the whole fandom. Remember to spread kindness!
If you have any questions, send a message!
How the setting looks in my head:
How the description comes out on the page:
I love every fanfiction author on earth !!! Thank you so much for using your own time to provide us with a free(!) story to read that is 10x better than every book I have read put in one!
For long fic writers: Your detailed fics are so amazing and you amaze me every single time with the amount of research and time you have put into your beautiful works! Whether I am looking to kill time or just want something to distract me you have provided me with that, and I am so glad we have writers like you!
For short fic writers: Your fluffy/angsty/smutty/all of the above fics are so nice to read after a long day! When I just need something small because I don’t have the energy for something long, you wrote something for yourself and shared it with us, and I am so glad that we have writers like you!
If you write fluff; Thank you so much! I love reading your self-indulgent fics. They are so sweet and adorable and those characters definitely would do that.
If you write angst; Thank you so much! I love reading your painful fics. I’m always excited to see how it will end and if things will ever get better.
If you write smut; Thank you so much! I love reading your own fantasies(or realities, or just what you chose to write). They make me smile and blush.
If you write romance; Thank you so much! I love reading about my otp falling in love over and over. Even if it is cliché, it’s also unique and I’m still surprised each time.
If you write about platonic relationships; Thank you so much! I love reading about my favorite best friends and siblings. You bring something not often seen and your courage is amazing.
If you write crack; Thank you so much! I love reading your random fics. They make me laugh time and time again and even if they are weird and ooc, they are amazing too.
If you write anything else; THANK YOU SO MUCH! Whatever it is you write, it is amazing and I love it.
I know my singular opinion doesn’t mean much when there are millions of people on this earth, but I want it to be heard!
I LOVE FANFICION WRITERS. YA’LL ARE THE REAL MVPS.
Indeed it is. However I believe it would be worth it to take the time to catch up. It is a pretty fun story.

Well, we already know they are among the fandom. Personally, I hope they do also write fanfic and share it. I am sure it can be frustrating to not have complete control over the characters and the story that help create.

These are great. It is really a fun way to broaden a character. I personally have a file with bios of all of my main, reoccurring, and generally important characters. For basic side characters I document information like names, titles, skills, appearances, personality, importance to story or characters, relations, jobs, miscellaneous notes, and other mundane information.
For my mains and other important characters I go into a lot more detail. This is my current standard starting info sheet for each VIP:
Name:
Gender:
Age:
Race:
Appearance:
Time with the collective:
Relations:
Skills:
Hobbies:
Job:
Favourite food:
Weapon of choice:
Personality:
Secret:
Fear:
Pleasure:
Origin:
History:
Role in story:
Additional notes:
I will take this form and add to it additional information about the character. Not every character has information in each spot. And there are characters with information that the reader will likely never know about. I personally find it much more enjoyable to write stories around characters then simply creating characters for specific stories. After a while, they just sort of write themselves and you start discovering things about your characters that you would have never guessed. It realy creates some interesting scenes.
Does your character have siblings or family members in their age group? Which one are they closest with?
What is/was your character’s relationship with their mother like?
What is/was your character’s relationship with their father like?
Has your character ever witnessed something that fundamentally changed them? If so, does anyone else know?
On an average day, what can be found in your character’s pockets?
Does your character have recurring themes in their dreams?

Has your character ever fired a gun? If so, what was their first target?
Is your character’s current socioeconomic status different than it was when they were growing up?
Does your character feel more comfortable with more clothing, or with less clothing?
In what situation was your character the most afraid they’ve ever been?
In what situation was your character the most calm they’ve ever been?
Is your character bothered by the sight of blood? If so, in what way?

Is your character preoccupied with money or material possession? Why or why not?
Which does your character idealize most: happiness or success?
What was your character’s favorite toy as a child?
Is your character more likely to admire wisdom, or ambition in others?
What is your character’s biggest relationship flaw? Has this flaw destroyed relationships for them before?
In what ways does your character compare themselves to others? Do they do this for the sake of self-validation, or self-criticism?
If something tragic or negative happens to your character, do they believe they may have caused or deserved it, or are they quick to blame others?
What does your character like in other people?
What does your character dislike in other people?
How quick is your character to trust someone else?
How quick is your character to suspect someone else? Does this change if they are close with that person?
How does your character behave around children?
How does your character normally deal with confrontation?
How quick or slow is your character to resort to physical violence in a confrontation?
What did your character dream of being or doing as a child? Did that dream come true?
What does your character find repulsive or disgusting?
Describe a scenario in which your character feels most comfortable.
Describe a scenario in which your character feels most uncomfortable.
In the face of criticism, is your character defensive, self-deprecating, or willing to improve?
Is your character more likely to keep trying a solution/method that didn’t work the first time, or immediately move on to a different solution/method?
How does your character behave around people they like?
How does your character behave around people they dislike?
Is your character more concerned with defending their honor, or protecting their status?
Is your character more likely to remove a problem/threat, or remove themselves from a problem/threat?
Has your character ever been bitten by an animal? How were they affected (or unaffected)?
How does your character treat people in service jobs?
Does your character feel that they deserve to have what they want, whether it be material or abstract, or do they feel they must earn it first?
Has your character ever had a parental figure who was not related to them?
Has your character ever had a dependent figure who was not related to them?
How easy or difficult is it for your character to say “I love you?” Can they say it without meaning it?
What does your character believe will happen to them after they die? Does this belief scare them?
I also often feel the emotions my characters are going through.
-making the facial expression your character’s making and trying to describe it
-writing entire scenes in your head as you shower and not remembering most of it by the time you get to your computer
-deciding you can’t do something you’ve been looking forward to until you write what you told yourself you were going to write, resulting in you laying in your bed doing nothing
-having two completely different ideas for your story to go in and both seem equally good but you can’t do both and you also can’t choose
-having docs with stories you know you’ll never finish but not deleting them anyway, even if they’re only a couple sentences long
-getting random bursts of productivity that could go towards homework or cleaning your room or writing and you know you’ll only be able to do one
-getting inspiration from the most random things
-writing at inopportune times because a perfect line or dialogue just popped into your head and you have to get it down before you forget it
-“what are you writing?” “……..a story”
- “what do you want to do when you grow up?” “uunnghnnggguughhhhh”
-reveling in the embarrassment you put your characters through
