Rant time: people have completely lost the ability to do research because “ChatGPT will tell me”. No it won’t. Or if it does, it will also make you dumber in the process. How are we supposed to feed our minds and nurture our skills if everything can be served to us on a silver plate?

so glad I left Twitter, this is so sad
Heads up to artists still using Twitter- Twitter is now adding an "Edit image" button under all images posted on the site that allows everyone to feed it into genAI and modify it as they wish with a prompt

I wasn't this productive for such a long time, I'm very glad I rediscovered my love for drawing and writing this year!

So let me celebrate a bit.
- I wrote 4 fanfics (3 still ongoing)
- I drew and doodles a lot (45 files in my folder!)
- I had the most fun I ever had with OCs
December 24, 2025 at 11:30 AM
"A Love Suicide" (archiveofourown.org/works/65383564) has to be my favorite one from this year (also the only one I 100% completed.
"The hand that feeds" (archiveofourown.org/works/73209796) comes right after, but I still gotta write the last chapter.

It seems I discovered a love for 🪦🕊️ in 2025...
Fic writers of Bsky, lets spread holiday cheer by sharing your favorite works of 2025!

Show us what you're most proud of writing, be it the works with the most kudos, or just the pieces that resonated with you emotionally!

#tavqotd

#Orlaith is kinda assertive, she gets mildly annoyed but focus on fixing things.
#AerinVrinn is passive-aggressive, but in the end still tries to solve the issue.
#Vael is like a baby that throws a tantrum, make a fuss and also doesn't fix the issue. Or solves it in the worst way possible.
#TavQOTD
How does your Tav/Durge react when something bothers them?

> Passive (expect it to solve on its own)
> Aggressive (get defensive and make a fuss about it)
> Assertive (focus on fixing the problem in a mature way and make compromises if necessary)

#tavqotd
#Orlaith is a paladin so she's not a "pure" magic user, but doesn't care about others.
#Vael doesn't really have prejudices, she just thinks of the others as losers.
Funnily enough my only non-magic user #AerinVrinn has A LOT of prejudices against magic users, wizards in particular lol.

#tavqotd I'll be completely honest, if Astarion wasn't in the game, #Orlaith would've probably followed Wyll and Karlach in Avernus and that's it. OR turn into a squid instead of having Orpheus do it maybe? Either way, she would've been on the good path with or without him.
#TavQOTD Who would I be if you weren't in my life?

Imagine that your love interest isn't in the game. What would happen to your OC? Who would he stay with? Thanks for the question @alstrodurge.bsky.social ❤️‍🔥

#Vael has this unnecessary disgusting passion of collecting severed limbs and use them as tent decor/instead of normal items (she was ecstatic during Dribble quest).
She probably was spotted while casually stashing a severed foot in her bag - that would be Shovel's new chew toy btw.
December 19, 2025 at 9:49 AM
#tavqotd #Orlaith is a cop, a detective, whatever. I watched enough Law & Order to know she and Wyll are there to serve justice. I'm still cooking the crime-drama AU...

#Vael 100% scams people on the internet. Or sells door-to-door crap and scams you in the process.
🏳️‍🌈 #TavQOTD 🏳️‍🌈

If your Tav/Durge had a job in a modern AU, what would it be?

#tavqotd I literally have two polar opposites OCs now that I think about it...

#Orlaith is lawful good, but turns neutral good at the end of the game

#Vael is chaotic evil, though sometimes she leans towards chaotic neutral when she's feeling generous enough
December 19, 2025 at 9:36 AM
#tavqotd with #Orlaith I did not plan it, but I KNEW Wyll was going to be her bff for life. They share similar morals, both have the hero complex. Wyll is kinder though, Orlaith approach can be merciless, they balance each other. Karlach joined the chat as well though, which I didn't foresee.
#TavQotD did you plan who your Tav/Durge's best friend was going to be or was it a surprise? Why are they besties with that character specifically?
December 19, 2025 at 9:29 AM
#tavqotd I noticed I am unable to write about #Vael, and I barely draw #Orlaith. Vael is my to-go character for art, Orlaith my writing muse.

For Orlaith, my favorite piece of writing has to be this one: archiveofourown.org/works/65383564 (🪦🕊️ alert!)
For Vael my favorite art is probably this one.
December 19, 2025 at 9:25 AM
#tavqotd #Orlaith has both Wyll and Karlach as her besties and biggest supporters.

#AerinVrinn bestie is Shadowheart, but Lae'zel also liked her and her strategies very much.

#Vael and Astarion are each other's biggest fan when it comes to behave in the worst way possible. And Minthara maybe.
Now, a positive spin, this is related to yesterday's qotd.

#tavqotd Who is your tav/durge's biggest fan/supporter in their canon? Cannot be their love interest.

#tavqotd For the entirety of Act 1/Act 2 #AerinVrinn and Astarion were each other's biggest hater, no doubt.

For #Orlaith I don't really know. Orin? lol

#Vael is a special case, she is very easy to hate but everyone just ignores her antics to live peacefully. #1 hater would be Zevlor though iykyk
December 18, 2025 at 1:05 PM
#tavqotd Both Lae'zel and Gale had their "crushes" on Orlaith, though Lae'zel was in for a physical thing and nothing more.
Orlaith is quite oblivious about these things and unless you clearly tell her your intentions she won't understand - which Lae'zel did and she gently refused.

#tavqotd as an Italian I realized I did not put a single italian thing in my OCs.
Now that I think about it maybe Aerin has /a bit/ of the basic italian grandma who harvests herbs everywhere and never wastes anything..?
And Vael gesticulates a lot.
🤌
#tavqotd What cultures of your own/ ones that you like did you give your tav? I'm Portuguese and Cape Verdean, so I made "G" kinda look like me x.x

I have always liked Spartan history and culture, so I applied some of that to his lore!

You know what is FREE on Steam though?

Higurashi When They Cry Hou - Ch.1 Onikakushi
A brilliant horror visual novel from Ryukishi07 (writer of Silent Hill f) that surely is not supporting a transphobic whiny b*tch business and is also a very good read.

#tavqotd

Short answer: I am too old to feel insecure about my characters.

Long answer: Durge's story is complicated enough, I didn't need a complicated design too. I purposefully made Orlaith a basic blonde elf hero with dark past. Vael is just perfect. Evil AND dumb??? Top tier character design.
#tavtoqd This one is for you, who created your pretty baby:

Have you ever felt insecure about your own OC? Because of the story or appearance, or because you're afraid they could be too simple? Any kind of insecurity before showing them to the world!
