so like… this has been on my mind for a while. before we knew what allergies and anaphylaxis were, people would just like, eat a nut and DIE, and everyone just had to go with that, like, “yeah every now and someone eats a pistachio and dies” holy shit, how scary. especially when the person didn’t even eat it. we found out my brother’s severely allergic to tree nuts when he so much as touched a pistachio as a toddler. allergies fascinate and freak me out so much, I’m so glad I have none…

anyway, I’ve been thinking, how do they deal with severe allergies in Thedas? what potion or spell is the equivalent of epinephrin??? show me characters having to CONSTANTLY ask what’s in the food they’re being given, “does this have almonds in it, I can’t eat this if there’s almonds in it” 

a young Circle mage getting annoyed because the dessert in the commissary today has fucking walnuts on it and their fellow apprentices tell ‘em “just pick them off!” as if their issue is that they’re just picky, and they’re like “that is not the solution to the problem I have” 

Creators have mercy if you’re Dalish, because that shit is a dietary staple 

imagine a Hawke, who knows they cannot eat tree nuts, but is so tired of not getting to eat the oil roasted cashews the Hanged Man lays out, about to shove a handful of them into their mouth, like “Anders get ready” 

“Anders get ready” omfg XD
