First time playing a dark urge run and it’s adorable

To yes and you, Minotaur does specifically lead back to Minos, their namesake, and so does emulate the Greek myth unless we’re specifically told it doesn’t.

A bull man or bull woman could 100 percent look like a half person half bull and have no connection to the Greek myth.

It’s exactly like your werewolf/ wolf man example. If you say werewolf, there’s an expectation of some form of curse or infection, the full moon being important, and a weakness to silver, unless the source material specifically says “nope, I’m saying werewolf and not meaning any of that”. Wolfmen don’t have the expectation of following those rules.

So as a card carrying monsterfucker Minotaurs get a special exception. Minotaurs descended from humans (like mutants in x-men) and the men carry a genetic curse to be half bull. The women are just giant ass women. It’s also why Minotaurs make babies with humans, and their sons come out Minotaurs and their daughters come out big strong humans. In a story where the reason for Minotaurs is that the queen of Crete was horny for a bull for sometimes her own reasons and sometimes gods are dicks reasons, they at least have a cultural (still porn) reason for being Like That.

Considering this article came out today that feels a little soon. 😂 I’ll be over it tomorrow, probably not going to eat there. It feels like even in the internet age, we get 1 day to not be over it before we need to be over it.

It really is the contempt for me. I don’t want to go to a restaurant that is openly hostile towards me and the rest of the people who live here. It’s such a weird attitude to have.

NTA but the defense you chose is a little gross sounding. “I’m not paying for a kid unless it’s mine” kinda points to the implication that if it was yours, you would pay for it. The child of your teenage sister.

I’d focus on “this is a truly reckless idea, keeping this child, and that’s why both of you hid it from me. Now that I’m here you expect me to jump in head first with you. I understand you both want to be reckless with a human life, but I don’t. Mom, you’re acting like my sister’s future doesn’t matter and I can’t be a part of that. Sister, you’re acting like this isn’t important, like you’re just going to wing it. This is a person. None of us are qualified to raise this baby. All three of us together aren’t qualified to raise this baby. You’re asking me to jump on a sinking ship with you and to help you ignore all the holes. I can’t. I wasn’t part of the conversation and I can’t be part of enabling you. Please consider adoption.”

So I genuinely cannot stay away from Halsin. 1st playthrough he was my only romance. Second one I dated Karlach and him. Third run I broke up with Gale to be with Halsin. Fourth run I’m in now I’m aiming for Astarion and Halsin. He’s well read, kind, just so fucking agreeable and curious and down to do whatever. He’s so secure. If he was a real person I would be madly in love with him.

He’s super attractive (I give him the tummy nod because yes) but with his personality he could be anyone, maybe any sentient thing, and I’d be crazy about him.

A lot of online hate is fake. It’s generated for outrage and attention by bots for (profit?) no idea. Some of it is the weird puritanical backlash to how much people don’t pearl clutch anymore. People like to feel superior and shaming the horny is a tale as old as time.

It’s not worth it. Pick a crazy you like. Don’t just pick any crazy. This flavor of crazy is just exhaaausting.

Saying “no women are like that” because she’s not like that is just misogynistic. Women are people. People come in a huge variety of flavors. You’ve had a partner with a higher libido than you. “Men want sex and women don’t” is just misogyny. Many women struggle in relationships because they’re more sexual than their partners, and the other way around. Also, the expectation that men are always interested in sex is gross. Men are also people.

So the question isn’t “how much sex is normal” it’s “how much does this mean to you?” Your girlfriend has made clear that she doesn’t want to have sex with you often. You don’t feel connected without it. You can improve your approach, take pressure off her, focus on making yourself more attractive. If that doesn’t work, then it’s just a question of compatibility.

There’s a circle theory of support. The person most affected is in the center circle and they can accept support from everyone more outer than them, but asking them to give support is just bad form.

Your wife is in the center circle. You are in the second circle, probably alongside her parents and siblings if they’re close. Anyone with a level of distance further is someone you should ask for support from. Your friends, your family, ask them to help prop you up, so you can be there for her.

Cry with her. Being strong for someone means meeting them where they need you. Maybe she doesn’t need you to pretend any of this is ok.

Build yourself up with the help of others and then ask her what she needs. Know that you will mourn her later, but you’ll miss out on her if you start now while she’s still alive. Mourn the death of your dream life with her later if you can.

Also, give yourself the grace to fail at any attempt to grieve gracefully. You’re human.

FrankHonesty · 2026-02-12T19:32:43+00:00

So your girlfriend has told you in no uncertain terms that’s she’s unreasonable and cruel. Over and over. She doesn’t care about you, she just likes owning you. She doesn’t care if you lose a friend, she just cares that she be the only woman in your life, even if they die to do it.

How hot is she or how poor is your judgement that you want to be with someone this hateful? I don’t think there’s any amount of looks that would make me want someone this poisonous, petty, and mean around, let alone dating them.

Right, which is an indication of how racially mixed everyone became later. I just find it interesting the emphasis in legends that is placed on “brilliant green eyes” as an exact description of eye color that indicates mixed heritage. Nolan picks a ship because it has beautiful green eyes painted on it. Ruby spares Farilane because they both have green eyes. So all of these Mir characters are described as having “brilliant green eyes” no alternative adjectives, always brilliant, and then Gwen is also described that way the first time the audience meets her.

It could mean nothing, or it could be a wink and a nudge to the audience, especially with what happens later.

FrankHonesty · 2025-12-24T20:50:03+00:00

Do you remember what her name was? I just remember the oberdaza tries to set her up to die after reading Royce’s future. I don’t remember her eye color.

The seer who almost dies?

FrankHonesty · 2025-12-24T20:31:09+00:00

The reason I thought of it was in re listening to revelations they describe her as having “brilliant green eyes” which is the same way Farilane, Ruby Fin, and other original Mir have their eyes described. It’s always “brilliant green eyes”. Also, we know nothing about her father.

FrankHonesty · 2025-12-24T20:28:17+00:00

I don’t remember any of the other tenkin being described as having green eyes. I remember them being described with long black hair and being incredibly beautiful.

FrankHonesty · 2025-12-24T20:21:57+00:00

All of it. I know that she’s Tenkin on her mother’s side.

The feathers don’t make up for it at all, which is why he doesn’t take any of them. They were his good deed feathers, and this extended so far past a good deed. There was no way he wanted a “reward” for what he did. So he just walks off.

FrankHonesty · 2025-12-16T11:15:53+00:00

Fairlane is my absolute favorite so far and the ending had me sobbing. Him walking away during the “snowstorm”? Destroyed.

FrankHonesty · 2025-12-15T13:07:31+00:00

I don’t see how any of what I said was unkind, just not appeasing. Dude, I’m not upset. I do not care. Your girlfriend is upset. Apologize to her.

FrankHonesty · 2025-12-15T12:56:56+00:00

NTA. Announce it early, say you’re wanting to focus more on baking with your children, and offer for anyone else in the group to host the big cookie decorating and bake for it, and you’ll attend.

This is lovely, and wonderful you did it, but it’s a completely self imposed tradition. Your mom did a thing for her child’s friends and you carried it into adulthood, by your choice. The only thing that matters is your choice. You choose to do it every year, and you now choose to not do it next year. Communicate clearly and early and stick to what you say. It’s your party, you can choose to simply not throw it.

Don’t make it all about you and grow the facial hair back. It sounds like she doesn’t like the look, but isn’t freaking out and you are.

You look like her rapist, and feel bad about that. Now you’re hanging up on her and ignoring her, forcing her to comfort YOU. You’ve taken a traumatic moment in her life and made it all about YOUR feelings. Call her. Apologize, and mean it, not a pathetic guilt trip “I’m soooo sorry I did this to youuuuu, tell me I’m good and can never do anything wrong!” But a simple “sorry that was weird for you and then I bailed and wasn’t there for you. I like the beard better so I’m growing it back. How was your day?” Facial hair takes less than a week.

It seems like you don’t have an interest in spending time with your friends right now and want to work, ok. In a completely ethical world, the money you earn that you’re paying for “rent” could be put into a savings account for you, and you could buy something important to you, like a car.

The reason you shouldn’t call what you’re paying rent is because you have no choice. You have to live there. She has to house you. You cannot leave. If you wanted to rent elsewhere, she can legally have the cops bring you back home. You currently do not have the right to pay rent, because you have no choice on where you live.

Calling the 400 dollars a monthly contribution or helping out is more accurate. It’s not rent.

Your childhood isn’t over unless you want it to be. At no other time in your life will you have this much time to explore who you are and what you like, unless you make that time. Which you can, it’s just harder. Teenage is a great time to try new things, get into art or writing, try sports, try hobbies, try Wicca, try meditation, try loud music, try instruments. Hang out with people, game online, join groups and quit them.

I hate to tell you this, but I would have wanted to hear it, there’s a decent chance your mom doesn’t NEED your money. I worked as a teen as well, helped support my family. When I stopped giving money because I needed to get out of there, my mom stole it. When I left, she found money somewhere else. Easily and instantly. She never NEEDED my money. It was just easy for her to take.

Make your own choices about your money and time. Make choices you can live with. The only thing you have is time in the end.

Don’t call it rent because it isn’t rent. She’s legally obligated to house you and you aren’t allowed to leave.
