Get these CLANKER LOVERS outa my DARKTIDE CHAT

[gilded socket]

She was doing photography for her football team but even at events they still text frequently

[rocky moat]

the omnissiah will not be happy with this one

[elder merlin]

Its over

[gilded socket]

Like ive sat and watched him and her go back and forth texting even if she’s like doing dishes

[misty trench]

JUST COMMUNICATE

IT'S EASY

[weak beacon]

Praise to the machine god

[arctic escarp]

are we sure hes being left on read, and not say, she's really busy or needed privacy?

[elder merlin]

What are you all, high schoolers?

[blissful kiln]

I'm pretty sure they are

[elder merlin]

Talk to somebody? Are you fuckin crazy?

[rocky moat]

for real

[gilded socket]

Yea

[elder merlin]

Probably, Maxine is a baby

[rocky moat]

that's what i do

[blissful kiln]

using darktide general chat for relationship therapy instead of posting gooner slop

smh

[arctic escarp]

this just reads a clingy expectations to me

[elder merlin]

I'll be honest, be surprised if they even stay together after high school

mfs were communicating with fucking smoke signals 30'000 years ago better than some of y'all talk with your SOs

[gilded socket]

She’s not the type to take her own time, rather share it and be personal with him about her feelings

[nocturne bloom]

Dont have a relationship, develop yourself as a person and create a successful path that can support a healthy lifestyle and relationship

[arctic escarp]

like part of romantic relationships is having trust in each other and not like texting them 24/7

[jaunty path]

This is fucked up

[arctic escarp]

like do you know how taxing it is for me to even text for hours on discord

[rocky moat]

thats what i woulda did

[jaunty path]

Absolutely fucked up

[elder merlin]

Jokes on you, i've never had a significant other

Being a social outcast your whole life, add or adhd (i forget which one), and a learning disability did not do me well in my early years and i was off putting for much of high school still too

[misty trench]

I've lived with my partner for 3 years

it's easy, you just gotta be able to fit into a wall cavity

[rocky moat]

i think it just comes down to like, the situation has to pan out naturally i don't think any of us can make a judgement call like "leave them or stay" because we literally have like a third hand experience on this

[nocturne bloom]

One of my favorite power couples broke up cause they were both bad communicaters basically

[ancient violet]

Nah relationships are extremely difficult, how the fuck am I going to let someone touch my fridge 😡

[rocky moat]

i think im too good at communicating

[elder merlin]

Its a cat, what'd you expect?

[misty trench]

Here I'll give you the best advice in the universe y'all ready?

[blissful kiln]

Saul Gayman

[arctic escarp]

Better Call Gay

[ancient violet]

You see those "dating couches" on TikTok and YouTube all the time, that also do alpha podcasts

Just do the exact opposite of what they tell you

[misty trench]

TRU

[rocky moat]

minor inconvenience arm your partner's hellbomb

[elder merlin]

I'll never forgive comic writers for breakin up Storm and T'Challa

[gilded socket]

I miss hugs and kisses ngl

[blissful kiln]

those "alpha dating couches" do have valid points
but, you need to understand what kind of relationship you'll end up having if you follow their advice

if you can pull it off, if you're wealthy, good looking, confident etc. and you use those "alpha male" strategies, you're gonna get ladies
but you'll get shallow gold diggers and\or not very smart people

[white vale]

Most people in this server haven't experienced it so we can't relate

[arctic escarp]

when in doubt, go gay

[blissful kiln]

some people are okay with that

[arctic escarp]

like you can get better dating advice from better rolemodels....or just ask women directly

[blissful kiln]

but too many just don't have the qualities to follow this "alpha" advice but still believe it like gospel and think that's the only way to get laid\find a partner

that's the real problem, imo

[weak beacon]

I’ve never experienced love I’m a warhammer fan

[nocturne bloom]

Hugs are better than kisses ngl

[gilded socket]

I can, it was one of the greatest feelings, having your partner pull you in for a loving embrace and kissing your cheek is like top 10 things of all time

[rocky moat]

instructions unclear, partner nonbinary

[white vale]

"Hey can I get advice on how to date you"

[blissful kiln]

women don't know shit about how to attract women
and men don't know shit about how to attract men

most don't

[arctic escarp]

like asking alpha males for dating advice is lready the wrong strat here

[rocky moat]

well yeah straight women and straight men arent good at attracting other straight poeple of the same gender like that because they're straight but it's actually pretty easy to be gay

[white vale]

If it feels gay then it's gay

[rocky moat]

now THIS is fact

[arctic escarp]

since a lot of their advice is mired in sexism

[misty trench]

plus a lot of these dudes aren't even in relationships, and if they are they're unhealthy af

[arctic escarp]

oh yea dont let the woman pay you dinner or split the bill or you're gay

[blissful kiln]

that doesn't mean it's not true or applicable

[arctic escarp]

oh yea if you let a woman top you youre gay

[white vale]

ALWAYS split that shit

[arctic escarp]

this is unironic things Ive read and heard from them

[nocturne bloom]

Sugar mommy always pays

[gilded socket]

I hope i can find the right person and have a healthy relationship together

[misty trench]

I'm bi so that's fine

[arctic escarp]

ONG

🤝 SOLIDARITY

[rocky moat]

admittedly this would be kinda gay of me to do

[blissful kiln]

💀

yes, if you like women you're gay, that is well known

[obtuse oak]

jealous. my partner can't stand other people being in the kitchen, she just sends me away

[obtuse oak]

as in, if you let a woman take charge during sex? that makes you gay?

[thick fog]

[rocky moat]

its gay to like women

[arctic escarp]

in their pov its being emasculated

[rocky moat]

(depending on your gender)

[gilded socket]

This is true for me

[blissful kiln]

a lot of the "alpha" talk is about power dynamics
if you cede power - you're gay

it's dumb

[arctic escarp]

like emasculation is seen as something that devaules a man greatly in their eyes

[obtuse oak]

the assocation between emasculation and homosexuality is so interesting to me.

[arctic escarp]

including letting a woman be dominant

[misty trench]

lmao the main thing that gets in the way for us is our kitchen is a bit small for 2 cooks

[white vale]

It's just stupid pushback against the safe-horny culture, AKA sexuality is okay but only if the woman is in control

[arctic escarp]

its why they say shit like men can cheat and thats fine. But a woman does it no no no

[jaunty path]

Gender double standards go very far

[misty trench]

here's the thing people suggesting that gay people aren't masculine af are forgetting:

||they fuck men||

[elder merlin]

[blissful kiln]

https://tenor.com/view/gachi-gachi-muchi-gym-gif-26208724

Cool thing about cheating: in english you use the same word as like cheating in an exam or in a game. In polish we call it treason instead

[elder merlin]

The Dave Chappelle skit

gotta keep on theme by making sure you can't have shit in the imperium

[white vale]

Fucking men or women is 50% gay. Fucking a femboy is 100% gay because you fuck a man and put up with a woman's bullshit. Fucking a tomboy is 0% gay because you fuck a woman while putting up with none of the usual bullshit

[obtuse oak]

one time i went to crete, greece for a summer with my partner to work in tourism. another dutch guy worked there. big buff wannabe alpha dude. not a bad dude but he got in his head about this stuff a lot. one evening we were all at a bar, and our boss' husband was flirting with my girlfriend and buying her drinks and shit (weird in its own way, but not my problem). i just chilled at the bar and talked to the other dutch guy. and he just kept looking between me and my girlfriend and the older man that was flirting with her and getting all worked up, saying like "I can't believe you're just sitting here so calmly, why are you letting him do that? I would be so mad bro" and I shrugged and said "she's drinking for free and at the end of the night she still comes home with me. what's the matter?" he looked at me like i'd grown two heads lol. he couldn't understand that I was comfortable letting him waste his time. in his eyes, I was accepting an intolerable level of disrespect, but I didn't care if he respected me or not. the not-caring part was beyond him.

that kind of psychology is fascinating to me.

[elder merlin]

Remember, Spartans are so badass that we still talk about them today, those dudes were gay af

[misty trench]

being real all sex is kinda gay

like I can't think of anything more gay than intimacy

[misty trench]

tbf 90% of the lore around sparta isn't real

the lore around how gay they were absolutely is real tho

[blissful kiln]

I mean, I would not be comfortable with watching my gf flirt or be flirted with

[arctic escarp]

this is why being bi nets you double positive

[blissful kiln]

I understand the dude's confusion

[white vale]

True, real men procreate through sheer aura alone

[elder merlin]

And thats all that matters

[arctic escarp]

you are unconstrained by gender aesthetics

[gilded socket]

Sleepy…

[blissful kiln]

I wouldn't just let a girl flirt with me if I was with my gf in a bar or something

[quick pendant]

just 12 more hours

[weak beacon]

My brain is rotting

[misty trench]

real alpha moves is flexing so hard you achieve mitosis

[gilded socket]

Sleep…but new book….

[elder merlin]

It is hilarious in the fgo series that Leonidas is one of the heroes in there and he totally just feels up the male protagonist for a bit

[obtuse oak]

to be clear, he was flirting with her, trying to flex that he owned a yaught and inviting her to come with him and all that dumb shit, while she was merely humouring him in a very noncommittal way because hey, free drinks.

[weak beacon]

Nurgles plague is getting to me

[blissful kiln]

yeah, I understand. I wouldn't be mad in this situation, but I wouldn't be comfortable either

just personally

[misty trench]

only downside is bi-erasure is a thing but like ehhhh that'll improve with time

[obtuse oak]

what's the source of the discomfort? what do you think is going to happen?

[arctic escarp]

omg yes this irks me so much

[blissful kiln]

even if I know nothing is going to happen

it's still weird

if someone started flirting with me - I'd shut it down immediately

[obtuse oak]

I was insecure and uncomfortable about it when I was younger because I didn't actually trust that my girlfriend wouldn't be stolen by another dude.

once I got over that mental hurdle, I stopped being uncomfortable about it.

[arctic escarp]

bi character in a same sex relationship doesnt make that bi character less bisexual

[elder merlin]

We just gotta bide our time, one day we will rise up, hold fast brother

[hasty sky]

It's 100% a maturity issue

[misty trench]

my discomfort would be bro wtf am I chopped liver? where are my free drinks?

[obtuse oak]

hahah that's the bi energy

[elder merlin]

Jealously is a hard beast to tame

[gilded socket]

Big eep calling me but im not answering

[misty trench]

yeee exactly

[obtuse oak]

for me it was, yeah.

[blissful kiln]

at least to me, if I allowed someone to flirt with me, even to humor the person, it would be:
a) disrespectful to my partner
b) disprespectful to the person trying to flirt (because I know they aren't getting anything out of this)

[misty trench]

reject melatonin, become woke

(please get sleep if you need it)

[weak beacon]

I’ve been up since 5am I don’t know why I’m still awake right now

[blissful kiln]

it's not about insecurity, just how I view the situation personally

and I think most people would view it like that

[hasty sky]

I mean in general. Those guys act like that too because they can't or won't overcome a similar hurdle

[obtuse oak]

oh it's very disrespectful to the person trying to flirt, but that was the point. that guy knew exactly who I was and he knew that I was sitting right there. he thought he was making some kind of power play.

[arctic escarp]

[white vale]

[gilded socket]

I was at a drifting event from 8 to 8

[rocky moat]

if someone's trying to flirt with me or my partner while knowing we're taken i already don't really have much respect for them personally

[obtuse oak]

there's a certain type of guy who will flirt with a girl while her boyfriend is sitting right there.

that's who we like to exploit.

it's a little game

[blissful kiln]

fair enough then

[rocky moat]

fire emoji

[blissful kiln]

yeah, you're right, in that context it's understandable

[misty trench]

drifting like as in cars?

[gilded socket]

Yes

[misty trench]

hell yea

[obtuse oak]

I should have added that context lol

[blissful kiln]

maybe I just missed it

but I get it now

[obtuse oak]

if it's some guy earnestly trying to make a move on her and he doesn't know that she's taken, then yeah I would expect her to say "hey no hard feelings but I do have a boyfriend" and then that ends the conversation 99% of the time.

[gilded socket]

Was so fun but so exhausting and hot

I'm doing a new shart romance playthrough myself

[misty trench]

ah yea for me it was in australia lol

[obtuse oak]

giving her the oath of the ancients paladin of lathander that can fix her that she deserves

one of these days I will make a sassy bard to steal gale's heart or something but not today.

[white vale]

When I come back to BG3 I'll be continuing my Dogmatic romanceless playthrough

[arctic escarp]

noice

I barely do other romances in bg3

[obtuse oak]

look how pretty he is

[white vale]

Zesty

[misty trench]

the problem for me in BG3 is I know full well every romance I do the character is gonna be looking at my brain-wormed up sithlord body without a hint of reservation

[arctic shoal]

It's not a phase mom, I'm a priestess of Shar, lady of torment and loss!

[gilded socket]

Alright its time i bed

[obtuse oak]

same lmao. i did karlach once because she's also amazing but shart has my hart

[gilded socket]

Im just gonna believe thats a selfie of you

[white vale]

I have already predicted that shart will either die or be banished at the moment she reveals her sharran roots

[misty trench]

I really enjoy Minthara and Laezel's romances, Shart would round out my top 3 I think

[arctic escarp]

my shadowheart screenshots has been noticeably better overtime since thas all I do these days

[white vale]

I know that Wyll will also die during that one scene at the end of act II, and Astarion is getting staked the moment he reveals himself

[misty trench]

actually karlach's would be up there now too with the fact they actually fixed the ending

[white vale]

I think from the origin characters, only Gale and Lae'zel will stick around in a dogmatic playthrough

[misty trench]

I really enjoy bullying astarion and gale, though with gale it's bullying (affectionate) with astarion it's bullying (bullying)

[arctic escarp]

I affectionately call him YOU BIG NERD

[misty trench]

me when I have to make the tough choice between being a god or being a car bomb

[arctic escarp]

Gale is just an IED

[misty trench]

...I may have made him do the latter in my first honour run

was about to get to the brain and was like "eh fuck it"

[rocky moat]

my cat is sleeping on my foot

[arctic escarp]

niooo he should be alive..

[misty trench]

he lives on! with Mystra or smth idk, I actually felt bad after doing it but I'd never done it before so xd

[white vale]

Using yourself as an IED to nuke a potentially multiversal threat is the biggest dick move there can possibly be

[misty trench]

I also once tried the thing where you fuck up rescuing mizora and wyll gets catapulted down to hell immediately but that was in base tactician where I was doing all the fucked up shit and reloading after because it's shit I'd never do in a serious run

[white vale]

Weep not for the fallen for their deaths were fucking badass

[misty trench]

BG3 and Rogue Trader really do let you be a fucking psycho if you wanna

[white vale]

I'm gonna do it intentionally because fuck Mizora

[misty trench]

nerd bro went out vegeta style 🔥

[misty trench]

I did also do this in another playthrough, wasn't worth at all

bullying wyll does not feel good

[white vale]

Also I'm biased, because in our D&D campaign the bard cozied up with a fiend lady and in the end it caused the second fucking Time of Troubles

[misty trench]

it's ALWAYS the bard (I am the bard usually)

[white vale]

To people not familiar with FR lore, uh

The Time of Troubles was when gods waged war on the mortal planes

it's happening again because we let the arcanaloth do her own thing instead of murdering the shit out of her

[ocean widget]

i mean tbf it is your most notable feature

i mean a bit of work with a knife on the ears and you'll be close enough

granted you'll be bloody and in pain but hey

its close enough

theres a mod that fixes that

granted if you have a decent looking character the face looks decent

just dont take their shirt off

made talion and they looked decent with it

[misty trench]

I could fix it

but I won't

talion my beloved

somehow made him the strongest member of the party despite him being a fucking ranger

uh

[misty trench]

[long sigil]

i dont know

oh it wasnt even barrelmancy properly

[misty trench]

uhhh kinda congrats! idk!

it was literally just throwing barrels at em with laezel

have they not told you?

just try to best i guess

i tried romancing laezel but accidentally skipped the salami fight cus i didnt long rest enough

[misty trench]

unfort

it's a very good romance tbh

[ocean widget]

too bad i didnt sleep enough to do it
that mod that adds the little "sleep now motherfucker" popup is helpful as fuck

found it

https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/1879

granted its a lot simpler than "sleep now motherfucker" but it gets the point across

[misty trench]

I need one of these irl tbh

[vocal pewter]

I kinda wish temp health could make a return

current gold toughness isn't the same

[misty trench]

temp health+toughness would be a little nuts

[vocal pewter]

and regular toughness has that issue of getting deleted in havoc or letting chip go through if you don't regen all of it instantly

Maybe like a zealot keystone

[stuck wasp]

Thp was an unbalanced mess for so long I'm not unhappy that we have toughness instead

[vocal pewter]

I would like to see it returned in a limited capacity

It worked on classes like zealot saltzpyre

And necromancer sienna had a very interesting way to tackle it

Verm2 still deals damage when you vent but necromancer sienna got that talent that shoots skulls that give thp on hit when you vent

it was a really cool way to loop the spell caster playstyle. Not super strong but it was a good idea

[lethal solstice]

You could also just eat your skeletons for the most effective venting method in the game

[fierce cave]

Wort wort

[blissful kiln]

i did it on my current run, i think it suffers from the same issue as most other romances

they fall in love with you way too fast

[misty trench]

tbf toughness is also an unbalanced mess

[misty trench]

yea this is an issue with all the romances for sure

[elder merlin]

Baezelgoose?

[stuck wasp]

While yes, isn't that mainly due to gold toughness

[elder merlin]

[misty trench]

saying this 3 times rn

[vocal pewter]

I didn't do any romance on my first run

or second

or any

I ran a necromancer but necromancy sucks

[misty trench]

yes and no, gold toughness is the biggest problem for sure but you look at like, arbitrator, for example, and the gen numbers are way too high

[lilac crag]

my furniture is moving

[vocal pewter]

so I pretended he had a change of heart and became a shield wizard

whatever the subclass was called

and soloed everything

[stuck wasp]

Nerfs are needed imo, sadly the community doesn't react well with nerfs

[blissful kiln]

#nerfvet

[misty trench]

toughness damage reduction and toughness gen are both kinda balancing nightmares for FS imo, they really struggle to hit the sweet spot with 'em

[vocal pewter]

I would stick all my party members in a corner and have my PC run into the room and kill everything

[misty trench]

and there's the issue of the game being powercrept in such a way where if you start dunking down toughness in a way that actually matters people will start getting melted

[vocal pewter]

they added havoc 40

which means now meta builds need to be able to handle it

so to try and fix toughness, DR etc

they would also have to rebalance havoc

[tired steeple]

Hello

[vocal pewter]

a conundrum for sure

[misty trench]

I'd like to see havoc getting rebalanced anyway since I don't much like the way DT handles endgame atm

[abstract fiber]

toughness as it exists now means high level players are basically unkillable minus whiffing a disabler

[vocal pewter]

Corruption also needs a look at

[tired steeple]

Might jump back on darktide

[misty trench]

it's far too spammy and too much audiovisual pollution, even for my ADHD ass

[lethal solstice]

That’s how any hp system would work

[eternal sail]

wazzup I’m new

[tired steeple]

Hello

[blissful kiln]

hi new

[lethal solstice]

THP would do that as well as long as you don’t get oneshot

[eternal sail]

In love with this game there need to be an enginner class

[lilac crag]

hi magos

[tired steeple]

There might be one

Hello

[eternal sail]

Like lay down turrets and stuff

[fierce cave]

No

[tired steeple]

Not yet but people are speculating we’ll get a tech priest

[fierce cave]

Just no

[vocal pewter]

I think we still need human sized shield enemies

[eternal sail]

Y not

[vocal pewter]

to make melee not just mash lmb

[misty trench]

THP at least has some risk in that it can decay but let's be real in higher difficulties there's enough enemies where that's not really a problem

toughness has the issue of being pretty much attrition immune outside chip damage bleeding through to health

[rocky moat]

thatsj ust weapon choice

[blissful kiln]

THP is much harder to generate than toughness

[tired steeple]

Yeah I try to use weapons with a mix

[lethal solstice]

Grail knight doing pa->light with brettshield for like 2 seconds and refilling and entire bar

[tired steeple]

Like power sword

[misty trench]

neither system is all that good tbh, VT1's system is the best system imo since it's green health only

the problem with VT1's system being that regaining health is tied to rng but that's a pretty easy thing to fix imo

[eternal sail]

You know what else I want to see ratkin

[tired steeple]

Cause you use everything on power sword. Even if it’s limited

Unfortunately they said they’re unlikely to do ratkins

Apparently height differences are a pain in the arse to get working

[eternal sail]

😭

[lethal solstice]

The archetypal sniper character when they can’t see over all 8000 three foot railings

[blissful kiln]

stagger thp got nerfed recently
also, against single targets, chaos warriors or bosses stagger doesn't do much

[lilac crag]

feet should be weakspots for the ratlings

[blissful kiln]

that's the inherent balance of vt2

which doesn't exist in dt

you get toughness easily from any source, you don't even need enemies sometimes to get a full bar in 5 seconds

[tired steeple]

Did any weapons get nerfs or buffs

[eternal sail]

Yes lol

[tired steeple]

I haven’t played in a few weeks

Been on hd2 cause odst

[eternal sail]

What other classes have they talked about adding

[lethal solstice]

None

[tired steeple]

People believe there might be a hive ganger at some point but that was a leak and people aren’t sure

[lethal solstice]

It wasn’t even a real leak

[eternal sail]

Sweet

[tired steeple]

I still think there’s gonna be one cause I mean

We’re on a hive city

[lethal solstice]

It was the vaguest title ever

[eternal sail]

Makes sense

[lethal solstice]

“Broker”

[tired steeple]

A hive city with a lot of crime

[misty trench]

there's no telling what a new class would be if any atm

[eternal sail]

Yep and a prison battlion

[abstract fiber]

whatever gets picked's gotta be unique in terms of weapon potential and mechanics

[misty trench]

like there's a shitload of unused assets and other stuff that isn't indicative of much of anything

[eternal sail]

Unless ur AR Bite lol

[tired steeple]

Ever think we’ll get combi weapons, anyone?

[eternal sail]

I agree

[eternal sail]

Might be a ways off too but idk with new games coming out they might try adding in some things to bring players back

[eternal sail]

Idk much on lore (haven’t read books) what’s those?

[ocean widget]

just checked talions save and realised i wore adamantine heavy armour the entire game
wild how they give you one of the best armours act 1

[tired steeple]

Two weapons put together usually

[lethal solstice]

It’s a gun that was duck taped to another gun

[tired steeple]

So a bolter with a flamer attachment

[lethal solstice]

Then given an actual case

[tired steeple]

And stuff like that

[eternal sail]

Sweet

[misty trench]

larian is hella generous with gear in that game it's kinda crazy

[lethal solstice]

It’s usually stuff marine characters get

[misty trench]

like if you nab the everburn blade that shit can last you through to endgame tbh

[tired steeple]

That the one from the ship?

Devil commander guy?

[misty trench]

titanstring bow is available in act 1 as well lmao

[tired steeple]

Yeah that one’s insane too

[misty trench]

yea, take zhalk's lunchmoney

[tired steeple]

I liked the spell stealing one

[eternal sail]

Yep hard as f to get tho

[tired steeple]

Or well, you crit and fill a spell slot

[abstract fiber]

it being singleplayer lets them lean into powerfantasy more

[ocean widget]

yup
shame only the armour is useful though

[abstract fiber]

but min max you can do ridic stuff like pumping out 1200 damage per round

[ocean widget]

nah it defo lasts you until act 2 at least

by then you'll have a better sword tho

[misty trench]

yea you can get better swords by then but it's still usable™

and yea the adamantine weapons are booty, it's a shame because they look cool

[eternal sail]

Especially if ur drow

[misty trench]

oh right yea also phalar aluve is act 1

[abstract fiber]

that undermountain dagger is act 1

[vocal pewter]

everything cool is act 1 and 2

[eternal sail]

Yep

[vocal pewter]

act 3 is uuuh

[abstract fiber]

act 3 was rushed

[vocal pewter]

it exists....

[ocean widget]

its the larian special

[lethal solstice]

Adamantine weapons are for the extremely rare case of like a golem or a tarrasque or something (you will have magic to bypass the DR)
Or breaking doors and walls down

[eternal sail]

I agree

[abstract fiber]

they were still talking about how great the upper city sections were gonna be a month before launch

[ocean widget]

good act 1
meh act 2
shit act 3

[tired steeple]

Act 3 has that rapier that’s really good

[abstract fiber]

before it all got cut and rolled what they could into lower city

[ocean widget]

the infernal rapier sucks bruh

[misty trench]

act 3 has some cool stuff but it's a big let down compared to the first 2 ofc

[tired steeple]

Not that one

[misty trench]

duelist's prerogative, it's fun af

[tired steeple]

The one from a certain side quest

[ocean widget]

oh

duelist

[tired steeple]

Gonna spoiler mark cause it’s pretty far

||you gotta kill ethel a second time for it||

[ocean widget]

oh that

[misty trench]

also nyrulna is a good grab and the staffs

[ocean widget]

yeah thats duelist

[tired steeple]

Yeah nyrulna is great

[ocean widget]

dude nyrula is fucking great especially with the giant subclass

[tired steeple]

Okay thanks. Been a long time

[eternal sail]

Anyone else just stand round in da game while chatting in discord?

[ocean widget]

imo duelists kinda sucks
i could see it being good on AA if you're going pure combat given the multiple attack + bonus attack not coming from dagger

[ocean widget]

nah ive usually got a game open

[ocean widget]

if you're not going AA tho it does suck

[eternal sail]

lol dumb question I guess u can’t game and type

[misty trench]

it's a lot of fun on swords bard

mind you swords bard is actually at its best when using a ranged weapon but we'll ignore that

[ocean widget]

[misty trench]

when the swords bard is a better ranger than the fuckin' ranger

[ocean widget]

yeah just checked and swords only has 2 fighting styles so that explains it

[ocean widget]

i mean gloomstalker no

the other rangers yeah

[eternal sail]

U folk console or pc

[ocean widget]

pc

[abstract fiber]

bg3 handing out monk more monk equipment in 1 act than most dms do over a campaign

[eternal sail]

Lucky sum b***h

[misty trench]

I mean gloomstalker is good but you do need to multiclass rogue no?

[lethal solstice]

Monks have like 2 items on tabletop

It’s the belt and uhhh

Uhhhhhhh

[abstract fiber]

thats my point

[ocean widget]

nah

went gloomstalker blade pact warlock and it worked good

[eternal sail]

I bet there some badass mods on pc

[ocean widget]

"You specialise in taking out foes swiftly and ruthlessly. You gain a +3 bonus to Initiative. On the first turn of combat, your Movement Speed increases by 3 m / 10 ft, and you can also make an extra weapon attack that deals an additional D8 Physical.png1d8 damage"

[ocean widget]

yeah theres some decent ones

[misty trench]

I could go swords bard with lvl 1 hexblade dip but that feels dirty

[ocean widget]

great for melee n ranged cus misty step you get for free with gloom

[misty trench]

yea last I ran gloomstalker is was a rogue assassin multiclass

you would end most encounters before they even began

[abstract fiber]

bg3 did mess with a lot translating thief mechanics into a 2nd bonus action

[eternal sail]

I like the werewolf mod on Xbox

[abstract fiber]

so a lot of bg3 builds revolve around weaponized bonus actions

[ocean widget]

yeah i know
shits wack

[misty trench]

the 2nd bonus action with dual hand xbows is pretty funny

become tomb raider

[ocean widget]

yeah thief AA gets 3d10 damage a turn confirmed provided no necro resist or immunity

[abstract fiber]

I went back to solasta cause 2's coming out and at first making some builds being like I'll sub thief for a 2nd bonus.... oh wait thats bg3 not TT

[blissful kiln]

getting rid of larian homebrew is the best thing you can do, imo

there's so much garbage

[eternal sail]

That game sucks ass

[ocean widget]

you cant with the thief subclass

[blissful kiln]

I'm sure there is a mod for that too

[ocean widget]

no you literally cant

[abstract fiber]

quick hands doesnt really translate well into larian ruleset

[sullen robin]

i tried to do gloomstalker once by far worse experience iv ever had in dnd

[ocean widget]

theres features for the subclass that dont exist within bg3

[blissful kiln]

an extra bonus action breaks so many things

but the list of bullshit larian homebrew is long

tavern brawler 💀

[ocean widget]

checks out given how they had to adapt the game

[eternal sail]

I mean solasta has friggen half orc behind paywall

[ocean widget]

yeah tavern brawler is nuts though thats for sure

cant exactly grapple though

or use improvised weapons

[eternal sail]

I never figured out how to do that

[ocean widget]

its an action that exists but its so shit you might as well just use sacred flame on shart

[eternal sail]

Ah

[ocean widget]

https://bg3.wiki/wiki/Improvised_Melee_Weapon

[tired steeple]

Some subclasses don’t really work in this game too

Like trickery cleric

Just doesn’t have the same freedom it does in tabletop

[ocean widget]

shame that one of the main characters damn class is trickery

[blissful kiln]

yeah, better break the entire accuracy\ac system instead

[eternal sail]

Can u melee with stuff too?

[ocean widget]

yeah

2d4 though aint worth it

[blissful kiln]

also lets give players infinite cheap 21 str potions in act 1

that last forever

mhm

[ocean widget]

nah not forever

until you long rest

[blissful kiln]

essentially forever

[ocean widget]

which depending on how much content you want

[blissful kiln]

you get 3 per long rest from ethel

for pennies

[ocean widget]

i had like 20 without using any and without buying any by the end

[eternal sail]

I always just end up forgetting about mine

[blissful kiln]

drink pot, pick tavern brawler - congrats, you CAN'T MISS and kill everything in two hits

[tired steeple]

Not for looong

Oooooh withers!!

[blissful kiln]

i tweaked it with a mod, so it's not an issue for me

[ocean widget]

yeah shart should've been a war cleric or smth

[eternal sail]

Someone say big naturals!!!

[blissful kiln]

but they changed so many things to make the game easier and I just don't understand why

[tired steeple]

I usually make her a storm cleric or light cleric

Not sure how that new domain is. Not tried much of it

[blissful kiln]

Death, it's great

[ocean widget]

appeal to a wider audience

[tired steeple]

B1-2 were pretty hard

[blissful kiln]

and even that they made stronger with homebrew

for no fucking reason

[tired steeple]

I tried them. I might try them again but I don’t think they’re for me

[blissful kiln]

as if giving clerics an actually useful damaging cantrip and letting you target two creatures standing near each other was too weak

[eternal sail]

Man what all store items u all got in dark tide I’m loving this trooper communication equipment

[misty trench]

skissue smh

[ocean widget]

"Level 6
Inescapable Destruction
Inescapable Destruction
Damage you deal ignores Resistance to Damage TypesNecrotic damage."

[misty trench]

(the skissue being you played tabletop ranger in 5e)

[eternal sail]

Bg3 I can never get my builds properly

[green shoal]

Weird (unanswerable?) question, but:
I find that I often have low offense numbers, but high revive/rescue numbers. Is that due more to build, or to player personality..

(in Darktide)

[ocean widget]

dont pay attention to it

the numbers dont matter as long as you're not doing jack shit

[ocean widget]

thats because you did it in DND and not BG3

in BG3 the ranger isnt shit

in DND the ranger is shit

[lethal solstice]

They’re

Better

Now

Not good

[eternal sail]

Well I’m off on mission ttyl

[lethal solstice]

But an improvement

[ocean widget]

sprinkling sugar on shit doesnt make it better

[lethal solstice]

Hope you like Hunters Mark

[ocean widget]

its still shit

[ocean widget]

still requires concentration

so still shit

[green shoal]

in the long run, sprinkling sugar on shit causes diabetes.
but in the short run, it makes things taste sweeter

[ocean widget]

why are you eating shit

[green shoal]

if the shit has sugar on it and is giving me diabetes, it tastes not as bad

[blissful kiln]

2014 and 2024 5e differ quite a bit

[green shoal]

That's a pretty good use of that emoji... it's not quite a laugh - it's like a neutral acknowledgement of sarcasm, so a perfectly straight mouth

[green shoal]

Magic?

[blissful kiln]

?

[green shoal]

Magic:The Gathering 5th Edition was popular for a while.. maybe even up until 2014, I'm not sure

[lethal solstice]

Context Clues

[blissful kiln]

no, I was talking about DnD

[ocean widget]

DND not MTG

[green shoal]

Ah, I still know nothing about D&D..

[green shoal]

in 2025, people no longer use context. It's not cool anymore, the cool thing is to form opinions based on nothing

[lethal solstice]

👍

[misty trench]

honestly I'm surprised there isn't a build planner on the wiki

I mean it's simple enough to just mental map it but still

[gleaming kite]

Late but yes

[green shoal]

I've never played BG3. Is there more to creating a build than just deciding which species of animal you want to have sex with?

[gleaming kite]

I hardly got any crashes until yesterday's hotfix. Now I crash after almost every round (no mods btw)

Makes havoc super fun knowing your spot will usually get filled by the time you relaunch the game

[ocean widget]

theres websites for it

does make sense though given the fact of how much stuff goes into a build compared to smth like darktide

[elder merlin]

Wake up

[inner nimbus]

eip smth, I use it

[misty trench]

(just don't choose the bear dialogue in halsin's romance scene if you're not interested in the bear scene, it's easy to avoid)

[inner nimbus]

I have some crazy builds for my BG 3

my fav is my Karlach flaming Bonk build

just cus of how effective and simple it is, and idk it kind of fits Karlach as well

[green shoal]

For the bear scene, does it matter if your own character is male or female?

[ocean widget]

i mean respeccing karlach into a monk just makes her strong as fuck since infernal coins buff unarmed amage

[misty trench]

it makes no difference afaik

[inner nimbus]

make her a Bearheart on top of that

[misty trench]

I've never done it lmao

[green shoal]

So is the bear always male... or is it not really explained

[inner nimbus]

and boom

resistant to all damage but Psychic

the bear is a druid

[misty trench]

the bear is halsin, halsin is an elf druid and he can wildshape into bear form for the scene

so it's always the same dude

[inner nimbus]

he can wildshape into bear even if you spec him out of druid btw

theres a theory that he's actually a bear spirit in human form

I believe it

[molten matrix]

The romance scene shouldnt exist in the first place

[ocean widget]

you can remove the man from the bear but you cant remove the bear from the man or smth

[green shoal]

So the bear is a male druid but he doesn't really explain if he shifted in to a male or female bear

[ocean widget]

ok so the man shifts into a bear

it is pretty obvious what gender

[inner nimbus]

reminds me of someone on the steam forums who was mad that in order to become a vampire you had to "be gay for Astarion"

[green shoal]

"beargender"

[misty trench]

it's worth it for the option to kick him in the nads, that's about it

[ocean widget]

he doesnt lose his dick norman

[ocean widget]

the romance scene is what got halsin as a companion in the first place

[ripe tangle]

wtf

[ocean widget]

its baldurs gate 3 not irish folklore
nothing to be surprised about

[inner nimbus]

1. completely ignoring Astarions entire story on why being a vampire is horrible
2. completely ignoring that Astarion can be romanced by a female character
3. if you're not prepared to get pegged for a taste of immortality and unimaginable power you don't deserve such power imho

[ripe tangle]

I fell asleep at like 20:30 last night, woke up at 3:30 in the morning

[ocean widget]

7 hours sleep
gj

[green shoal]

It's called genius discussions of philosophy and smart things, that's what's happening now

[ripe tangle]

I have to be at work in the afternoon...

[misty trench]

true let's talk about the Tuatha Dé Danann instead

[molten matrix]

Forcing someone to romance a character for vampirism is fundamentally bad game design

[ocean widget]

oof

[inner nimbus]

from what I understood that doesn't usually turn out well, even talking about them

[ocean widget]

being a vampire does jack shit bruh

[ripe tangle]

wait, if Astarion is a vampire, why doesn't the sun kill him?

[inner nimbus]

Astarions whole story is exploring why being a vampire sucks, how it's a society of victims and abusers and how degrading it is

[ripe tangle]

aren't vampires supposed to be allergic to the sun?

[inner nimbus]

spoilers, the game does explain it, same reason you don't immediately turn into mind flayers

[green shoal]

It's BG3... Why doesn't the sun have sex with him

[ocean widget]

the mindflayer tadpole makes him immune (and the artifact)

[molten matrix]

This is why skyrim sweeps

[misty trench]

his brain worm is special and makes him sun immune

[ripe tangle]

it does though

[molten matrix]

No disgusting romance options either like a troll

Or a goblin

[inner nimbus]

not just him, everyone

[green shoal]

I've never played BG3

[inner nimbus]

Karlachs infernal engine is kept relatively peaceful

[ocean widget]

oh yeah btw when you finish the game he loses his sun immunity if he isnt ascended

[ripe tangle]

everyone has sex with everyone in Baldur's Gate, it's why it's secretly called Baldur's Goon 3

[inner nimbus]

you can resist your urges cus of the taspole

[ocean widget]

gale however does not lose his urge to consume boots

[misty trench]

tbh there's no really that much sex in bg3 unless you're like, looking for it

you don't have to do jack shit if you don't wanna

[ocean widget]

i know you can fuck the drow twins but thats about as much non romance sex i could find

oh nvm the fuckin whos his face in hopes house

[inner nimbus]

Harleep

[ocean widget]

yeah him

[misty trench]

yeah but I mean you can just kill him instead

[ocean widget]

who doesnt

[inner nimbus]

true but telling Raphael he can't last long in bed is priceless

[ocean widget]

free shit is free shit

[misty trench]

and it's kinda preferable to do so unless you want that one line to fuck raphael's life up

yea that

[green shoal]

Are you allowed to masturbate in BG3, or are you forced to only have sex with random animals?

[inner nimbus]

I feel like that should count as a 3 turn Vicious Mockery

[blissful kiln]

in the wonderful world of bg3 everyone is bisexual

[misty trench]

brother this bait ain't happening

[blissful kiln]

💀

[molten matrix]

Let me tell you this

The developers are belgian

[wooden creek]

I haven't played BG3, but does the tadpole work any differently if you're a gnome? Gnomes in D&D are usually incompatible with ceremorphosis, though under rare circumstances they can become flayers who manage to retain their personality

[molten matrix]

And if you know belgian laws youd know the answer

[green shoal]

This only makes me more curious ha... it sounds like there is some sort of option to have sex with oneself

[blissful kiln]

Witcher 1 still king

[ripe tangle]

once again, chat is freaky...

I was just making a tasteless joke

-_-

[inner nimbus]

I played a Deep Gnome Ranger it's exactly the same because these tadpoles are alrerred and much different than the usual ones

[halcyon glen]

Hi

[misty trench]

plus the game takes its own liberties with lore anyway

[wooden creek]

Sounds like the devs SUCK for not adding that small detail

can't BELIEVE my EARS

[blissful kiln]

bg3 is not exactly following the lore to a letter

[halcyon glen]

Calling sister midnight

[molten matrix]

completely disregards lore from previous baldurs gate entries

[misty trench]

I don't like what they did with sarevok at all

[blissful kiln]

THERE IS NO VICONIA OR SAREVOK IN BG3 THIS IS FAKE NEWS AND LIBERAL HOAX

https://tenor.com/view/joe-emotiguy-emotiguy-butt-shake-emoji-butt-shake-joe-butt-shake-gif-14427695574209448709

[inner nimbus]

what is that link

[misty trench]

Viconia really shouldn't be in it and may as well not be

[ripe tangle]

all I remember from BG2 was Winthrop the Innkeeper referred to his own Inn as being "cleaner than an Elf's arse"

[misty trench]

Viconia's got such a fucking nothing role in the game

[inner nimbus]

I was more a Neverwinter fan

[misty trench]

plus you one shot her anyway

[abstract fiber]

act 3 strikes again

[blissful kiln]

she's there to be killed like she's a low lvl priest and not a hero of legend

at least making them join the party

[eternal sail]

I know it needs one

[blissful kiln]

they were clearly biased

[ripe tangle]

thank you

[zenith glade]

I love sob..

[blissful kiln]

also Minsc with 12 STR and 15 WIS is just wrong

[zenith glade]

SPLAT U kidde .

[zenith glade]

Im not SMAL either ,, i am Super tall Awesome

[molten matrix]

what if i shot you with a fuel rod cannon

[zenith glade]

Taller than U

[ripe tangle]

ngl I love the SoB stickers

[molten matrix]

your so small

[zenith glade]

Id deflect w my crimson Powar .

[rocky moat]

just like me for real

[molten matrix]

you barely qualified for the military's height requirement

they had to make an exception for you

sargeant mi.dget

[inner nimbus]

btw the level 20 mod for BG 3 is perfect for me

cus I love to multiclass

[ripe tangle]

what's the minimum height for Military service anyway?

[inner nimbus]

also also going Swashbuckler and any bard is funny cus you get to Vicious Mockery as an action and a bonus action

[molten matrix]

1.6m in the netherlands

[zenith glade]

@molten matrix https://youtu.be/zg1osIEMDmY?&t=25

Context

[blissful kiln]

words are like bullets

[ripe tangle]

heh, I'm 1.6m irl

[misty trench]

1.6m is lots of wiggle room

me in the trench watching the tallies get shot sooner

[misty trench]

swashbuckler the best rogue fr

[inner nimbus]

honestly Swashbuckler might be my fav Rogue

I've had my Astarion be one every single time since it came out

before that, I had him be a combination of a Gloomstalker and Assassin

[ocean widget]

use a mod that lets you get every companion and make them all bards for their unique mockery lines

[inner nimbus]

I mean again

I play Tactician with improved enemy factions, max level 20, with 6 characters

[zenith glade]

I talor than u .

[inner nimbus]

I have heard lines most haven't I reckon

[somber stream]

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/X9GYlKTQER0

Armies will fight in full plate armour, as god intended in the near future

[zenith glade]

I do actually barely qualify for the Netherlands military lmfao

Im 69 and a half inches tall

[misty trench]

me when I get hit in the head, feel fine but all my pals are now bleeding out from spalling

[blissful kiln]

I know there are lines that only trigger if you're playing the origin companion

and a mod that turns those on at all times

[somber stream]

Wouldn't happen if your pals are also wearing plate, see?

[misty trench]

now you all get to die from spalling

dice roll every time

[molten matrix]

you do get to keep your hair

[ocean widget]

is it the mod that lets non origin gale get the shadow slot?

i've seen a mod like that
cant find the damn thing tho

[obtuse oak]

I'm playing him as a swashbuckler for the first time now and it's very enjoyable.

that disarm bonus action is soooooo strong

[inner nimbus]

all of them also give you advantage on your next hit

so you can vicious mockery someone at range and rakish

its soooooo gooooood

[obtuse oak]

yea that shit is sick. I noticed that the pocket sand attack will have a very high % to hit very often

like 95%

so free adv lol

[obtuse oak]

I had to pump up his CHA for that to work somewhat reliably but that's what the gloves of dex are for I guess.

[inner nimbus]

pro tip just get a two level dip in Hexblade

[obtuse oak]

I can't

the RP forbids it

[inner nimbus]

that way his attack rolls all use Cha

[obtuse oak]

my brain won't let me multiclass the companions into things they're clearly not

Wyll is the only one with a pact, end of story.

[inner nimbus]

hmmm I wonder what you'd think of my thunder knight Laezel

it scales off dex so rogues are always gonna hit it

flick and mockery scale off charisma

so multiclass into warlock and its good

or bard

Swords Bard is better imo

for Flourishes

also double Vicious Mockery

[long sigil]

[inner nimbus]

[green shoal]

If you're not doing anything else anyway, then doing something (a random job) is maybe better than doing the nothing, maybe, if you can get the job

[obtuse oak]

cloud gaming, I can't

[halcyon glen]

Linganguli guli guli ratcha

[long sigil]

gasolin?

[obtuse oak]

it's running on a pristine virtual machine so it can't be the install.

[somber stream]

But of course, doing something is definitely better than just rotting in your bed lol

[plucky ermine]

Nurgle wants me to rot tho

[inner nimbus]

[somber stream]

Don't, nurgle is cringe

A bedrotting person might think of it like: "getting out of bed is worse than staying in bed" though

[somber stream]

Not you, you're G

[little marten]

🙏

[ripe tangle]

I destest Nurgle and it's disciples, I slaughter the lot of them.

The all happen to smell like a sewer.

[little marten]

Rough gig

[ripe tangle]

such is life in the Imperium....

[ripe tangle]

it's also the name of several historical figures, it's also the technical ethnic name for Japanese people.

[somber stream]

I have yet to notice any weird smell emitting from Nurgle here during our deployments, all good for now

Shower at least once every two days, yeah?

[little marten]

Give or take

[somber stream]

Whuh

[little marten]

Tuesday Thursdays and the Weekend

Or if I’m going out then too

[somber stream]

Nice, it's Mon-Wed-Fri for me

[little marten]

Damm that answers my question whenever I’m in the shower of “is licht in the shower rn too” .. turns out no

[ripe tangle]

I shower once a day and wash myself at least 2 or 3 times a day -_-

[somber stream]

[little marten]

A perfect Ying and Yang

[somber stream]

Too hot?

[ripe tangle]

no, I just really don't like being dirty.

[somber stream]

Ah, fair.

[ripe tangle]

I only wash my hair once every three days though, I mean really properly wash it.

[little marten]

If you’ve a day to day that means you get dirty more so then I think that’s fine

But otherwise you gotta protect tho natural oils

[somber stream]

Proper, regular hair wash can damage the thing

[ripe tangle]

but yeah, I shower daily...

[somber stream]

Some people hate it when it gets sticky, same goes for me

Also i've quit smoke for 4 days now :^D

[ripe tangle]

nice

proud of you Licht

[somber stream]

Thanks Lucia

Turns out all i need is a good sore throat

[little marten]

Basedddd that’s basically the major hurdle over

[prisma cypress]

Fuck the music is musicing

[little marten]

Now you just have to remind yourself any craving is a demon inside you and that by not giving in you are killing that demon that

[somber stream]

I can still hear the voices though
"Do it, just 1 more drag."

[little marten]

Nicotine monster

[somber stream]

Not today fiend, not today.

[ripe tangle]

when I quit smoking, I kept doing stupid things like throwing paperwork away and speeding

[prisma cypress]

Could never get into smoking or even drinking

Tried it and went this shit wack asf and never touched it since

Shit doesn’t hit like chocolate milk

[ripe tangle]

it's a bad habit, it's a good thing noone actually forces it on ya

[little marten]

I’ll run out of my duty free tobacco end of this month so should probably pack it in then

[prisma cypress]

Stop smoking and use that money for gambling

Good habit 👍

[ripe tangle]

are you travelling rn NG?

[little marten]

I despise gambling more than anything

Nah I’m home now

[ripe tangle]

ah okay

[little marten]

I just really messed up when I started smoking again, I thought it would help with some mental health issues and surprise surprise it didn’t.. but I fully suspect the little monster will make me think that again when I quit, so I must prepare my soul for the impending warp

[somber stream]

Same, it's like a cloud suddenly left my mind after just 1 day of quitting

Work crunch is a bitch, it's what got me back to the thing in the first place

[lilac crag]

[somber stream]

Ello Alex

[lilac crag]

eya buddy

[little marten]

I’d actually love a work crunch to gimme something to focus on

[prisma cypress]

Fuuuhhhhh

[little marten]

My issue is having nothing much to do during some days so I have to sit and ruminate

[prisma cypress]

This music is just

[somber stream]

Yeah! Keep your mind occupied with something worthwhile, best strategy to stay away from Smoke for a prolonged period

[little marten]

And I used to love ruminating don’t get me wrong lol

[ripe tangle]

so, in the 1800s and early 1900s, from the Napoleonic Era to the World War Era essentially, in France it was considered having body odor to be a sign of verility and good health, this was more or less an exclusively French thing that came out of the revolution from the 1790s to the 1810s, which is where the Stinky Frenchman stereotype comes from since they often bathed less than pretty much anyone else in Europe for a little over a century, that being said I have to ask.

were French people disciples of Nurgle?

[little marten]

As an Englishman.. I’m starting to think the French are actually cooler than us..

[somber stream]

Here's a few things to keep you busy:

1. Deep clean the apartment, and i mean EVERYTHING, from the tiniest speck of dust on the window frame, to every crack in the toilet

2. Draw, or learn to draw. Creative process require a lot of brain juice, you might even forget to eat

3. Go for a jog, it will make you feels so refreshed, it would feel super wrong to take a drag right after (for me at least)

[little marten]

I really want to get into running actually, running people always talk about it as if they’ve just taken heroin straight to the brain

[somber stream]

But if such is the case, then why parfume?

[ripe tangle]

this is simultaneously the least British thing you could possibly say, yet it still aligns with English Nobility's way of thinking for most of England's existence.

[somber stream]

Yeah i used to cringe at the subject whenever someone bright it up as well. Try it yourself, nothing much other than pain and suffering for the first month, but things change after that, i assure you

[ripe tangle]

it's actually the reason perfume is so associated with France, upperclass French society had a bit of an obsession.

[little marten]

• they embrace their smell
• they hold their leaders to account
• cheese

Mind you I never appreciated cheddar

[somber stream]

Move to France and change your legal name to Gustave

[ripe tangle]

my favorite cheese is Guyere.

[little marten]

Ew.. I was only ‘thinking’ they might be cooler

[somber stream]

Yes i've heard the story, they only bathe once per month or so

[little marten]

Guyere is the Swiss one?

[ripe tangle]

yes, it's Swiss.

[rocky moat]

pew

[little marten]

I like the taste but the aftertaste is almost irritating in the back of my throat

[ripe tangle]

a century ago yeah, in more contemporary times they bathe like everyone else though.

[little marten]

Melted on a French onion soup is top tier tho

[somber stream]

Brie cheese still stand undefeated

[fierce cave]

Boo

[little marten]
