My sister recently announced that she’s pregnant but had been hiding the pregnancy for three months in case she lost the fetus. The whole family immediately switched things up to support her including getting a bunch of alcohol free beer and wine so she could still “drink” for Christmas and New Year’s.

But then our sister in law had a realization. Didn’t my sister drink a beer at the last family party? According to her she already knew she was pregnant by then…

That’s when my sister’s husband had a confession to make; “I’ve been drinking two beers for a while now”

So without anyone noticing he had been drinking her beers for months. We don’t force anyone to drink alcohol in our family. My brother and I rarely drink alcohol but our sister has always been more of a party girl and it would be noticeable if she suddenly declined alcohol and we’d all immediately know something was up. So this was the plan they cooked up to hide the pregnancy until she was ready.

Her husband sighed sadly “Only one beer for me again. Now I have no excuse for not driving us home tonight”

While this doesn’t account for all of them my experience is that most of the people who preach “traditional gender roles” and think women should belong to men are the same people who are really stuck up about sex. Our society would have benefited so much from them not being so fearful of exploring their own kinks and realising they’re into Dom/sub or maybe even full blown BDSM instead of making their suppressed fetishes everybody else’s problem.

As a woman who likes myself a good submissive man but isn’t into the heavy stuff with leather and chains it’s okay. There’s loads of people who are also into your specific brand of Dom/sub. You just have to come to turns with your own desires. Don’t get desperate and force people into it.

favorite pastime of the looping family is to (kindly) mess with Siffrin

Siffrin? More Like Sif is Out Masterlist.

AU where the entire party gets trapped in a time loop, except for Siffrin.

I’m incredibly bad at fashion and yet I spend an inordinate amount of time thinking about it in relation to stories and characters.

When I learned about goblincore I was immediately convinced proper folkloric Scandinavian trolls would dress like this in a modern setting, and in my opinion trollcore would be exactly this except with more gold and jewelry.

It got me wondering what other types of creatures would dress as, and hear me out, high elves would dress in high-end Scandinavian fashion.

Both because the style is characterized by an obsession with using muted natural colors as well as natural materials like cotton, wool, silk, and whatnot, but also because of the subtle I’m-better-than-you smugness that comes with it. It looks humble and is environmentally conscious but is also incredibly expensive and most people can’t afford it.

Wood elves would probably dress more like hippies in clothes that is also environmentally conscious but actually affordable.

Also, despite their otherwise gruff personalities I can’t help but think dwarfs would have aspects of crystal grunge fashion just because they love mining for stuff so much.

Martin: I know you’re deflecting by making jokes about how hot you are.

Mihael: It’s not a joke.

Mihael: *sniffles*

Mihael: I’m a legit snack.

Hey guys check out my bug loops. My bloops. My lougs

As the flash hits your eye, you feel something crashing into you from all directions. Below you is obvious, Bonbon situated themself to bump into you while the picture was taken. You look to your right, and Mirabelle’s cheek is pressed up to yours. On your left, Isabeau’s sheepishly hugged you to his side. There’s a hand in your hair, too, and it feels like Madame Odile. [...] “We need a souvenir of this trip,” Mirabelle adds. She rushes to the ground to pick up the picture and snort-laughs as she looks at it. “Oh no, Siffrin looks like we’re holding him hostage!” — Curtain Call, Chapter 9, by @openphrase123 (Link in the replies)

2024 October 22nd

Fanfic fanart fanfic fanart!! When I read the "hostage" line, it invoked such a clear image in my head of Siffrin tensed up like a startled prey animal that it got added to my list of things to maybe draw immediately.

Dooon't think about the words 'left' and 'right' in that quote too hard. I know how to read I prommy. :) (I did Not process those words and lost the coin flip in the composition phase...)

Close-up and ramblings about the cans of worms I unleashed upon myself under the cut

Time taken on this was [head in hands] 48 hours and 37 minutes.... That bloated number has two culprits:

1) I got a new tablet! My old one was 10 years old. Its plastic was melting and the electronics had ghosts in 'em, so it needed the sweet release of retirement. However, I had just gotten to the line art phase when the switch happened. Clumsily getting used to the new one during the most precise phase of the process did devastating things to my perfectionism.

2) I made a GRAVE mistake with how I chose to color this. I wanted to keep the grayscale layers for accuracy instead of just slapping a B&W filter over the colored version, so all the colors come from gradient maps, color balance layers, overlay layers, and raster layers clipped to other layers. Listen. I'm used to working with lots of layers. I like keeping things separate so I can edit them more easily. But this is the worst layer system I have ever created. Going from color to B&W requires toggling exactly 20 layers & folders on or off. There are 87 visible layers total. This file lags when you edit it. I've never wanted CSP v1.13 to have layer comps more in my life.

Not helping matters was Isabeau. I said he was the easiest to draw in my last post, but he took that as a challenge, apparently. It's a simple fist-on-hip pose, why was that so hard!?! His face gave me grief too.

Odile's lil' wave got added at the end of the line art phase. I've never added to a sketch that late in the game before, but I felt bad about how little screen area she got, haha. Girl, I tried, but this composition was not kind to you.

Giving Isa, Odile, and Siffrin skin colors felt cursed. Well... "color" is maybe a stretch for Sif. The pallor from being affection-jumpscared isn't helping. In the dev's nose reveal post, they said that Siffrin isn't white but is white-passing, so BOOM albinism headcanon. Like c'mon, they wear a big hat and have most of their skin covered because the sun is a deadly laser when you have little to no melanin and idk if sunblock exists in-universe. Heck, maybe most Islanders have it, their whole religion is about the night sky so maybe they're nocturnal. This makes perfect sense. :)
