The Houses as Video Game Things

jinxy-valentine:

Hufflepuff:

Only picking the nice dialogue options. Carrying around way too much stuff because “what if it might be helpful later?”  Pausing a fight because you’re about to die and need to use a health potion. Being really good at puzzles and minigames. Balancing your skills so that you do well in a fight, regardless of the circumstances. Never wearing matching armor. Fighting the same enemy over and over again and cheering when you finally beat them. Panicking whenever dark music starts to play. Having to walk everywhere because you’re carrying too much to fast-travel.

Ravenclaw:

Spending 2+ hours on the customize character screen. Getting emotionally attached to the NPCs. Using actual strategy to plan out your quests/fights. Always having a lot of money but never having anything to spend it on. 

Spending all of your level-up points in one category.

Never getting caught when you steal things, but only taking small items because you’re afraid that someone will notice if you take something big. Wasting a lot of lockpicks on something that doesn’t even have good items in it. Placing waaay too many manual map-markers because you can never find your destination otherwise.

Slytherin: 

Spending too much time on side-quests instead of working on the main objective. Accidentally walking into a ridiculously difficult battle when you’re only level 2. Using long distance weapons to fights the enemies because you’re terrible in close combat. Forgetting what quest you were working on because you got distracted by a hunt for a random object. Actually using resistance potions/spells/e.t.c. Having conversations with companions and unlocking extra quests. Forgetting which buttons on your controller do what and having to spend a couple minutes to figure it out.

Gryffindor:

Forgetting to save and having go way back to the beginning of the quest when you die. Screaming out loud whenever something scary happens. Getting lost in a location that you’ve been to 50+times. Sneaking? What is that? You run straight into the open and hope you won’t die. Not understanding what the different stats for your weapons mean and picking the one that looks the coolest. Always forgetting that you have helpful items and never using them when you need them.

Ha!

I feel personally attacked and can’t stop laughing because it’s deserved .

The Ladies of the N7′s Graduating Class  2176 stop to have their picture taken together in Rio de Janeiro after ceremonies. The selection being small, it was  question they would become close friends. Each looking forward to their new duty assignments, they would promise to keep in touch often. They promised to meet up in 10 years at that very spot. It’d never happen. 

I was listening to the complete ME soundtrack, when working on these lovies for friends, Ladies of N7 ready to make a difference for Humanity and the Galaxy… the end song came on and I died. As I looked at “MY” Shep… her  friends would never come home. She would never come home. They would never see each other again.

Who died in the attacks in 1?
Who gave their life in 2?
Who was in London? Vancouver? 
Who looked up the moment the exact moment Shepard made the final choice? Or was there no one left of the original squad? They’re all dead?

It was with that I felt the lump in my throat, my nose started to run, and the screen when blurry. headcanon hurts the heart. I instantly hated myself. I wanted to write it but couldn’t bring myself to.

Doodle and Scene Practice.

This is a tribute piece I did for my friends that play MassEffect with me and adore their Shepard just as much as I do. I asked for screen shots and was shocked at how different we were from looks to personalities. It only made sense to me to take this next step. I dove into my tablet and a timeline. screen shots ready! I love you Ladies and Gents! ❤
