I hate the trope of “I refuse to hit women!! [Gets decked]” cause it’s boring but I do like the trope of someone in an RPG going “hey I don’t wanna hit a kid that’s kinda fucked up” and the kid just obliterates them
“i refuse to hit a woman!” = Sexist, overdone, does nothing to actually empower the woman or make the guy seem nice
“I refuse to hit a kid” = valid, even funnier when the kid whips absolutely ass in one go
not related to unnamed but i did have a realization. being powerful necromancers, edward an lydia would no doubt have access to true resurrection. That means theres no reason they wouldnt be able to resurrect their dead brother unless... Unless keets didnt WANT to be resurrected. My proposal, keets is ashamed of how his siblings turned out but cant bring himself to confront them any time they try to contact or resurrect him.
When your sibs have committed so many death crimes maybe it’s better to just stay away for a little while until they calm down.
Makes those Candlenights dinners a little awkward when you’re resurrected by your family only to find that they’ve gone and tortured a bunch of people and have literally eaten their bad vibes.
Some rando: You should think about stopping your prescription
Me: My pills make me not want to die tho
They: You shouldn’t want to die, that’s not normal
Me: Yeah that’s why I’m taking my pills
Again: But you aren’t the *real* you when you’re on your pills
Me: I’m the alive version of me
An actual doctor, once: “Relying On A Chemical Crutch For A Hormonal Imbalance Denies The Fortitude Of The Human Soul”
Me: Cool so like I’m agnostic
They: “But you might be on pills the rest of your life!”
Me: “So?”
Good! That means that I have a “rest of” my life to continue living!
Thanks to the pills.
Meanwhile, no person ever: “You should think about giving up your insulin/antiretrovirals/beta blockers/anti-rejection drugs/prosthetic legs/daily multivitamin, because using those your whole life is bad for some reason”
Oh no, they do that too.
I have a kidney transplant. A woman once told me she didn’t believe in organ transplants and that people should just die when they’re meant to.
Sounds like a great set-up for a murder
People who are fully healthy, fit and neurotypical seem to think they are that way because they’re doing something right that the rest of us haven’t thought of, and not just because they got lucky
