metroid is about isolation
but metroid is also about learning to do trick jumps from random animals who celebrate when you get it right, and about saving them even as the planet shudders under your feet
and metroid is about lowering your gun when you meet the last of a species who's only just hatched, and gently holding out your hand
and metroid is about accidentally calling the name of someone you care about, who you thought you'd lost, and finding out they've been with you the whole time
and about a little scribble of a child with their parents tucked into the corner of a grand mural
and about the gifts left behind by others because they may be gone before they get to meet you, but that won't stop them from helping you
metroid is about love actually

You ever hear that old chestnut about how most people neglect the part of the story of Icarus where he also had to avoid flying too low, lest the spray of the sea soak his feathers and cause him to fall and drown? You ever think about how different the world would be if Icarus died that way instead? If the idiom was to Fly To Close To The Sea? A warning against playing it far too safe, about not stretching your wings and soaring properly? You ever think about how Icarus died because he was happy?

Sadly people got too tolerant of Christianity we need the mythical annoying atheists to make a comeback we need to make this the summer of atheism "don't talk to me about your magical book" should be rolling off the tongue way more often....

Stanley Pines as a Lord of Fortune from Dragon Age! Part of my Veil Falls AU
Design notes:
Shan'vel Aenadahl, Warrior Reaver, Member of the Lords of Fortune
Shan - Old, Vel - ship/vehicle, Aenadahl - Pine tree
Does not have Vallaslin (wishes he could have gotten it)
Wears Orlesian attire to confuse people about his true background
Took Stanford's name to keep running the "Shack" but isn't 100% trying to pretend to be him as he is well known by other lords
Uses one of Ford's elven artifacts as his cane, doesn't know what it does (currently)
Wears a necklace Ford left behind after being pushed into the Fade, unknown to him if it wields any magical properties
His brass knuckles are from his time in Rivain
Side note: I do want to do a more proper "Lord of Fortune" outfit for him later down the line, but that'll have to be when Veilguard releases and I get my grubby hands on that artbook LOL
