Why? Did you think Tiax would post an image of a nug with Mary riding it? He'll probably do that anyway.
Actually, I was thinking of a hollowed out nug used to keep beverages warm.

On-topic: I have a concept for DVT tomorrow but it's unrelated to creepy 70s science videos.
Tomorrow is Wednesday?

Now I can't help but think of a Nug Tea Cozy (which Mary probably has as it is necessary to drink tea to warm up after experiencing one of Darth Gaider's withering gazes!)

And since many of you are Nutella/Cheesecake fans, I "stole" this recipe from my friend's newsfeed today and thought you all may want to have it. The recipe makes a Peanut Butter Nutella Cheesecake:
Leo's friend wrote...
The recipe called for:
16 oz cream cheese (softened) -------- I used 8 oz of cream cheese and tried to estimate the difference with whipped cream, as per the hubby's request after making the Nutella cheesecake over the summer
1/2 cup granulated sugar -------- I used Splenda
1 (13 oz) jar of Nutella -------- I had approximately half a jar left, and so I used the remains there and made up the difference in JIF peanut butter (which was going to be the plan even if I had a whole jar of Nutella-- just use half)
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 (9-inch) prepared graham ****** crust -------- I used Oreo crust
So I mixed the 8 oz of cream cheese with the whipped cream (I used a spray of it rather than a plastic container-- I don't know how to approximate flying whipped cream, but let's say I went with six teaspoons) and the 1/2 cup of granulated Splenda. I then scooped out the half a jar of Nutella. Then I realized I'd used the only clean tablespoon for this job, and it was covered in Nutella. So I used a teaspoon for the peanut butter, and I think I got my math right. I went under the assumption that three teaspoons equals one tablespoon. And two tablespoons is one serving. And four servings was about what I needed. I think. Who knows? That's what I did though. So I had 12 teaspoons of JIF in the mix.
And that was a workout. I wonder if Julia Child could benchpress a bus. Anyway. I stirred for what felt like forever (sure, put that in your directions), and then I nuked two servings worth of Ghirardelli chocolate chips (a serving, according to the bag, is 32 chips. 32 chips is not a lot when you pour it in a cereal bowl and think, "This is supposed to be in a cheesecake." So I opted to double it.) for about a minute and poured that into the mix.
I stirred for another eternity. I wasn't pleased with the consistency, so I added more whipped cream (let's say 4-6 teaspoons) and stirred some more. Still wasn't happy with the cut of its jib, but I stirred as the recipe indicated, which was until no streaks remained. It was all one happy color of some kind of brown.
I poured it in the Oreo pie shell and tried to improve the appearance with more whipped cream. But I'm bad at that, so it still looked funny.
But it tasted wonderfully.

Yay, an actual character with chest hair (I have that, and it annoys me that characters usually don't)
AND, he's not whiny! YAY FOR MY FEMHAWKE!!!
Now I just hope Aveline is as awesome as I hope. Lovely, nordic, redhaired Aveline... I wonder if she's a natural redhead...

Well, Cassandra (the other person on the other side of the frame) is interrogating Varric because he spent time with Hawke, so the assumption is that he is a playable party member for part (most?) of the game...We have also seen screenshots of him in action.

I am ashamed that even as the OP of 2.0 (Anarya is the OP of the now locked 1.0) I was COMPLETELY NINJA'D by someone else regarding the OVER 9000 posts (somebody shoot me;or the other guy) due to RL getting in the way.

Well, at least puppies are awesome.
@leonia: I gotta get on this. I wonder if I should wait until I go home or make it while I'm still living in my apartment. Decisions, decisions...

This may or may not be a repeat performance of a certain Oghren pic I drew. Also I was heavily under the influence of meds at the time of sketching...

He is covering one of his nipples from fangirls. He heard about the tweaking under the shirt.
And in reality, he's so much disturbed about the idea, he's not covering them at all >

This is true, there's a smirk. I cannot draw Varric without a smirk.
