What We Do When We're Alone, Part 2 (Spoilers)

I wanted to show off my Hawke and Lavellan. Because I am kind of happy with how they turned out. And because I love creating "My Own" characters.
At first, in Dragon Age 2, I thought we HAD to have this pre-decided character and wouldn't have a say of my own, but no! Joyous times! I love creating characters. It's so much fun. It's probably why I enjoyed the Sims so much.
That, and controlling their every move...
Need to go potty? Oh too bad...
Want to go swimming? Oh I am afraid the ladders suddenly dissappeared....
Would you like to eat? Oh dear what is that little house-box that appeared in the middle of the sitting room trapping the last remaining sim good for?
Errm, I digressed a little. I would never do that by the way.
I am a Nice person.
Regardless of being Nice there are these amazing options in Dragon Age 2 where you can either be helpful, sassy or aggressive. Which is the best thing in the world. My Hawke is sassing everyone. She keeps getting told off for it as well, which makes it even better. I can't stop. It's a condition. The sass is strong in this one. I wish I dared sassing more in real life. Sarcasm is just the best thing to ever having been invented.

Right. As you can tell I tend to go for the redheads... I like red hair... I am jealous of people with naturally red hair and I kind of hate them a little bit for it.
Jokes. I don't hate them... I just want to scalp them and wear them.
Perfectly all right hanging out with me, by the way, I don't tend to scalp people the first time I meet them. Maybe the 2nd or 3rd time... But no, not the first.

Elfy looks grumpy when she's not in a cutscene. So at first I was going to give you this really unflattering picture of her.
But then it bugged me so much I had to go to The Black Emporium to the Mirror of Transformation just to get a normal-looking relaxed face off of her.
Bless her. She's probably thinking about stabbing a certain double-crosser in the face... I am really happy with her. I LOVE her big giant ear-things! Big ears are adorable. And of course the red hair.
Orange as a carrot. Love it. Love red hair. I think I've mentioned that enough now, though. Suspecting I've made my point come quite clearly across.
The Origin character also had red hair. However she looked like she had poo smeared under her nose, so I won't post a picture of her. Not happy with her. All though the romance with Alistair's nose was quite good. I enjoyed that. Thoroughly. Alistair even got to join sometimes. It was lovely.

Right. Wrapping this up now, if I know what's good for me. Got some funny/amazing things in store though. Found this whilst falling through Skyhold, played me a lovely little tune as well, it did. Don't think I can post that directly in here, but will try. I Frapsed it for Malene once. Because I have been _SPAMMING_ her with Dragon Age related woes. She is a trooper that Malene. Holy shit. I would have told myself off ages ago had I been anyone but myself.

She has properly been there for me, that trooper of mine.
(SPOILERS AHEAD, MATES.)
When Dorian broke my heart, she was there, telling me he was just a useless pixel (don't listen to her Dorian. (Iloveyouuuu!!) You are the only person with a moustache I could ever fancy. Majestic bastard.), or when Solas brutally left (that bastard. I love him too.) us to our own devices (YOU KNOW HOW MUCH OF A MISTAKE THAT IS YOU ELFY TWIG, SOLAS!)... She was there. Malene is glorious. I would have imploded without her. Truly.
(SPOILERS OVER-ISH!)

So I took a picture for her once, that I would like to share here. Because I do not believe being selfish in this depraved world is the way to go about things.
Please, let me show you Solas.
Solas showing skin.
Solas in a crop-top of sorts. (I had to google that term. No idea what "a piece of fabric that does not cover your entire upper body" is even good for. I guess "crop top" is nice and short for that though. Whatever it is good for. Who in their right mind would choose to be cold on their bellies and sweat on their arms? I suppose Reverse T-Shirts would also have been a good nickname. Truly. Think about it. T-shirts are for us knobbers who don't like to be cold on our bellies and not be all sweaty arm-pit.)

I may have trailed off a little again. Solas in a crop-top.
Looking fucking fabulous I might add.
I need to go to sleep... Too much Dragon Age.

What We Do When We're Alone (Spoilers)


I have been playing so much (So. Much) Dragon Age lately. I am worried for myself.
That's right. Worried for myself.
I have been playing and replaying Inquisition, started Origins, continuing with Awakening... It is SO GOOD! I can't stop! It's impossible! Send help!
I am running around with my ... Loves. Alistair... Cully-Wully... Sera.... Dorian... Iron Bull... Solas... You know... An appropriate amount of people methinks.
They are so well written! It is so fucking hard to pick a favourite. Allthough Sera, Solas and Dorian... And Alistair... And Cullen.... And Iron Bull....
No, it's too hard! (Haha! Not got the proper equipment. Wasted.)
It's impossible. They are too well written!

The music is AMAZING, listening to the bard songs all the time. Can't stop.
Dragon Age everywhere. No end.

The choices are too hard! The game is torturing me!
Should I sacrifice a fleet of unknowns or the crew of kickass awesome-people of doom?
Should I let the kind person be king and let the economy crumble or the asshole-tyrant that will boost surface-trading?
Should I let a creepy (she's awesome, really, not really creepy.) lady have her way with my man-lover to let us both live?
Should I cut a lying bugger loose for lying and owning up to his crimes or save him and risk the wrath of the people?
Should I make man-lover king or not? ALL THE CHOICES ARE SO HARD!
I hate these games so much!
I love them.
Brilliant, brilliant games.

I feel like I've sold my soul...

The Ghost of New Year's Past

It's New Year's Eve! A whole year of whatever it was the year before! Well not really, but mostly. I lead an interesting life. Speaking of lives, my life is lost to Dragon Age: Inquisition. I am a little bit addicted. It is so good. I want to spend my life playing it. Actually, playing games in general. I would love to have that as a job. I am hireable! Please hire me!
Uh.. Yeah.
Not really. But it would be awesome.

Right, back on-topic, New Year's Eve! Woohoo! New year, new possibilities! Hopefully we will get our Youtube series actually on Youtube this year! We have been working together for almost a year now, this summer. Which is good! We've had our ups and downs like most groups do at times, but I am really hoping we'll get back into action after new year!
I really like those dudes. Wonderful people.

I really hope everyone I know have the best year to come! And get amazing opportunities! And meet amazing new people! Or old people. One must not discriminate.
It would also be nice if Trump doesn't get elected.
As a side note.
I feel like that is side-note-worthy.

Future self insight: You can stick those hopes up your arse, Past Self.

Peace, love, tolerance, respect and solidarity! And all those good words to you! 💛🎉

4th Sunday of Advent

Yeah... Ok. So I forgot to make a post on the day. #Fail and all that.
So Christmas was nice! Was nice having some time away from Oslo and away from everything. Been quite nice. What HASN'T been nice, however, is cleaning up pee from Cat most of it. She has been extreme. Extreme. 3-4 times wetting the sofa on Christmas Eve alone. I will repeat that, 3-4 times on Christmas Eve alone. I would strangle her if I didn't love the little shit.

3rd Sunday of Advent

Kitty is gone!
I sent her to my sister so she could take her with her to my aunt who will drive back to Søgne. It's only 5 days, but it will be torture! I miss my little baby allready! My darling little diva.

She is such a little brat.  Here's some pictures of her. The two on the table is taken by Erika.
The one on the bottom was taken by me. You can clearly see who is the most skilled photographer. (Hint: It's me. :P)


You can probably see why I keep calling her a diva. She is one.

Anyway, I am going back to Søgne on Friday, I am looking very much forward to that. Will be nice with a little time off as I have been sick for a week now. Well been having this cold since October, I am kind of sick of it (no pun intended, but was a rather happy accident).

It will be so nice to see family and friends again. Not seen them since July now. Well family at least. Had Carina, Frank and Malene here a couple of times, so has been very nice. Carina and Frank also got a dog called Loke, which is awesome. I can't wait to meet him! Apparently he's a freaking tornado, taking example from the Tasmanian Devil from the Looney Tunes. Nice.
I am looking so much forward to meet the little devil (again, pun not intended).



I hate that I posted this too late for it being Sunday. #Fail. I hate it. I want to turn back time 2 minutes. My OCD (disclaimer: I don't actually have OCD. I do not know the very real struggles of OCD nor will I (hopefully) ever. I apologise to the afflicted for using your.. Affliction as attempted humour) is revving up and getting in to the highest gear. Holy shit. It is crazy up in here.
Seriously though. It's bugging me above average.
With that I wish you a Merry Christmas. Have a great week!
