I was thinking of fan-stuff I could do on commission. I can’t draw and refuse to write fanfic on commission (there are too many legal points that have me side-eyeing the whole concept), but there are other things I can do.
I do perfume blends, y’see - perfume oils, bath oils, shampoos and...

“Pretty, isn’t it?” says Aveline, trying to sound casual.
Carver shrugs sourly. “It’s just a moon.”
“Flames, Carver.” She rolls her eyes. “Is there anything you don’t loathe?”
He pretends to think for a moment. “Lectures. And being judged. Yes, that’s one of my favorites.”
“You’re not still tweaked about before, are you?” She crosses her arms and glares at him. “I won’t apologize...

Merrill: How do you do it, living in the city without picking a side? Doesn't it matter to you?
Varric: Of course it does. That's why I don't take sides.
Merrill: That doesn't make any sense.
Varric: I've got you and Aveline, Fenris and Anders. Hawke. Isabela.
Varric: I've got friends in the Circle and drinking buddies in the templars. All of them matter.
Merrill: But you're going to fight. If it comes to that, I mean.
Varric: I fought my own brother, Daisy. Nobody said this was going to be happy story.

a guide to signal boosting
subitoallegra:
People are very enthusiastic about signal boosting, and I have mixed feelings about this. On the one hand, it means that people care enough to help people they don’t know, which is great. On the other hand, it means that people don’t care enough to give an issue more than a cursory glance, without looking into it for more information.
When you see a missing person or general...

Woman: Can I have birth control?
Government: No.
Woman: I got pregnant because I didn't have birth control and I don't want the fetus. Can I have an abortion?
Government: No.
Woman: I gave birth to my child but since I wasn't expecting it, I can't afford daycare. Can I have help paying for it?
Government: No.
Woman: Well, why can't I have birth control?
Government: Because. Sex isn't for recreation. It's for procreation.
Woman: But it can help regulate my period and benefit me in other ways.
Government: Too bad.
Man: For no reason other than for recreational sex, may I have birth control?
Government: Do you have a penis?
Man: YES, YES I DO!!
Government: WELL HOWDY, VALID CITIZEN. You can buy condoms by the dozens. Here, here's a pack of special condom for "His Pleasure." Oooh, these come in different colours and flavours. Here, try these. They have ribs on them. And this one glows in the dark!! LOL OMG DICK LIGHTSABER!!
Government: But seriously, you're a man. You can do what ever you want.
Woman: But-
Government: Shut up, you sinning, freeloading hussy.

I don’t even remember writing this. But it’s pretty awesome.
I should search myself more often, because I am apparently pretty neat-o.

frederickm:
Watching The Middleman, and I’m realizing just how beautifully created the characters are.
Take a character like Lacey Thornfield, the confrontational spoken-word performance artist roommate of Wendy Watson. Her mother is Dr. Barbara Thornfield, MD. Ph.D., and after the first couple of viewings you wouldn’t understand how some artist living in an illegal sublet could be related,...
