They don't even fit

So one of Isabela’s armour upgrades is called “Rigid Boning”….

JFC CARVER CAN YOU NOT BE HAPPY WITH ONE SINGLE FUCKING DECISION I MAKE

IS IT TOO HARD TO SAY “HEY MAYBE MY OLDER BROTHER IS IN KIND OF A DIFFICULT SITUATION BUT IS DOING THE BEST HE CAN WITH WHAT HE’S GOT AND OH BY THE WAY SORRY ABOUT BLAMING YOU FOR OUR SISTER’S COMPLETELY UNEXPECTED AND RANDOM DEATH”

I MEAN YOU DON’T EVEN LIKE IT WHEN I’M NICE TO PEOPLE AND YOU STILL THINK YOU’D BE A GOOD CITY GUARD

DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU NEED PEOPLE SKILLS FOR THAT ROLE?  DO YOU?

THAT’S IT YOU ASSHOLE, THAT’S THE LAST FUCKING STRAW

I AM SENDING YOU OFF TO THE GREY WARDENS THE FIRST CHANCE I GET

YOU CAN GO BROOD WITH THEM IN THE FUCKING DEEP ROADS AND BOND WITH THE DARKSPAWN OVER HOW NOONE REALLY UNDERSTANDS YOU

Fuck you spiders, how dare you give me a fucking fright like that.

Bee tee dubs, Nightingale in the hizzouse.

Those fur cloaks from the Winter is Coming mod are pretty epic, too.

Heh.  This is awesome.  Just realised one of my mods (possibly Better Followers or Big Dialogue Overhaul?) makes my companions pull out mugs of mead and start drinking and dancing when I make a request of a bard.

Skyrim Drunken Dance Parties 2k12.

Another great mod I’ve been using with Skyrim is Natural Skyrim Rain, which is just a perfect fit with Realistic Lighting.  The vanilla rain in Skyrim is depressingly ugly, but this looks and sounds great.  In particular, the thunderstorms are fantastic-the fight with the dragon pictures above (in Rorikstead) had actual thunder competing with the dragon’s shouts to see which could crush my eardrums first.

I’ve been experimenting with a few lighting mods in Skyrim, and I can safely say I’m enjoying Realistic Lighting with Customization the most (especially with mods to add light sources to cities and roads.)  

I just had a great experience with my thief/ranger character raiding Red Eagle Redoubt for the Legend of the Red Eagle quest.  A foggy night with no torches made for a whole lot of dead Forsworn, as long as I stayed out of the light radius of the campfires, but given that dawn was approaching I couldn’t wait too long before they all noticed us at once and swarmed us.

You and me both, Ruki.

I’m not sure if you guys know this already, but one way to sneak past guards in Skyrim is to, um, drop a basket over their heads so they can’t see you walk past.

No, really.

Makes the Thieves’ Guild quests much easier.

Having another playthrough of Skyrim, this time with a few more graphical mods to pretty things up.

Ilum’s quite lovely when you’re not being ganked by Sith.

I was reminded today by David Bass that Mako, the Bounty Hunter companion in SWTOR, is voiced by Lacey Chabert, who was not only Claudia on Party of Five, but also Gretchen Wieners in Mean Girls.

This is why everyone on Tumblr should roll a Bounty Hunter. 

Given that he must have been playing this character for a few days to get to level 26, I’d like to think that someone had already pointed out to him that that isn’t how you spell “Archangel”.
