Ok I'm heading to class rn and im sure ive said this before but I don't believe not a single person except for Gaige and the bl3 vault hunters showed up to Wainwright and Hammerlocks wedding. Like. I get some people (tannis I feel you that planet did not look warm and weddings make me wanna vomit sometimes) but Clay???? Tina??? Fuck off gearbox

Did I do this meme right

Sometimes while i was trying to get dialogue out of npcs a different one says something I wasn't expecting and this was one of those

Shut the fuck up I'm petting your weird cat

Hello! Niche post but I cannot tell you how similar The Guy Who Didn't Like Musicals, Black Friday the Musical, and Guns, Love, and Tentacles are (more gl+t and the musicals, both the musicals are starkid so obviously they are similar), as both a gamer and a little theater kid they are the Same Picture

Like here's some pics of each

No wonder I want a GL+T musical SMH

Can you imagine how well the GL+T wedding would have gone if not for the will of two piece of shit immortals and their dead octopus god

The Borderlands series includes so much representation in all of the games, and its all extremely casual. Because they didn't have to base the planets off earth, they pretty much deleted homophobia, transphobia, ablesim, etc.

I mean, one of the DLCs is about 2 guys (who are also both disabled in one way or another) getting married. The only kind of joke about them being gay specifically is that one line where Hammerlock says his family won't like him marrying someone without a monocle, WHICH even if he WAS joking, the joke only works in a meta perspective because, again, homophobia really isn't that much of a thing (or a thing at all, I dont think)

And the sad reality of life is that such a good game for representation is commonly looked down upon for that very reason, and that a DLC is regarded as "extremely good" but "too gay"

There are many aspects that we definitely shouldn't carry over from Borderlands (murder and stuff) but the understanding and acknowledgement of other people as humans deserving of rights, no matter who they are or what they look like, is something that we desperately need on Earth

Happy one year anniversary babies 🥰

Curses, Technicalities, and Giving A Middle Finger To Death On Accident

Technically speaking, you don't kill the Heart at the end of GL+T, because revisiting the boss fight area shows it still moving and beating, just a less active beat. Perhaps i am just overthinking but overthinking is my middle name

So consider the following;

The curse isn't dead, just simply passed on to the new owners of the rings, aka our two favourite husbands (side note: who are coming up on their one year anniversary too!)

Or maybe, the curse is only activated consciously. So, simply put, if they were to want to be immortals (more than they already are, being Mr and Mr "I got shot but like its just really mildly annoying"), they could.

You'd think that maybe the "curses" on the townsfolk are merely put in place to keep the residents stuck on the planet, a fail-safe provided by the Olmsteads. But the people are clearly still suffering from said curses by the time you rid the place of Eleanor and Vincent, something you can see by just attending the reception afterwards, or even just helping Burton after completing the main missions. They seem to be persistent little things.

And please, one "curse" directly targeted at two individuals at a time, which has the ability to hold one person's entire being (personality, thoughts, etc) in a ring until they are passed onto a new vessel and reborn as themselves again, taken DIRECTLY from the heart of the IMMORTAL GIANT MONSTER, you are telling me some vault hunters just killed the couple who made it and it went "yeah ok bye bye"??? The rings are still made from the heart, and I am doubtful that killing the people attached to it would harm it (since it is, again, seemingly still alive).

Wainwright may have called them "just some fancy piece of jewelry" but odds are they got an immortal tool on their fingers right there. He said "til death do us part" but I think that is farther away than he realizes

Or you know...The rings are just...useless jewelry now and I overthought this whole thing. That is probably it

Here it is! Enjoy, my friends
