The gleeful cackling this nugget of perfection inspired.

Jiang Cheng: Why are you laying on the floor?

Wei Wuxian: I have depression.

Jiang Cheng: Ah.

Wei Wuxian: I've also been stabbed three times.

Jiang Cheng: Wei Ying, what the fu-

There's a theory that Moxxie and Striker are bros and that can still be true but Striker's royal demon issues gave me some 'personal' vibes this past episode. Maybe got ditched by a blueblood parent or something? Didn't seem like a relationship thing given how he responds to the randy demons around him.

Striker being so done with everything and his critter noises were life. XD

Almost choked on an almond trying not to lose it over this post in my work cafeteria.

Striker trying to be intimidating*

Everyone else: Aside from being sexy, what do you do for a living?

Striker: ...���‍💨

Everyone else: 😘

Striker slowly losing his sanity because no one in this damn show can take anything seriously is so funny to me im sorry😭

[lunamonium]

The dynamic if these two turn out to be brothers would be fire. Lightly reminds me of Aladdin and Mozenrath for some reason.

Meanwhile:

Moxxie: What does he look like?

Stolas: ....sexy?

Moxxie: That's Striker, sir!

Blitzo, having a sudden internal pause at the hospital: Why am I feeling a complete sense of pride and joy about Moxxie right now?

WIP Alastor cosplay from Hazbin Hotel.

Trying to tame that wig was a time and a half. XD. My half eye-glass didn't work out and I have yet to figure out how to keep the monocle in place.

I drew his mouth over mine in lieu of physical fangs and I kept forgetting not to try to mimic his grin anyway.

Waiting on his flesh tone paint but I was able to mix something similar. Props to Athena palette for being a champ.

Play Insane by Black Gryph0n on repeat cause Alastor's song is the bomb? Don't mind if I do. 🫡🥳

I feel like this eyeglass was made for a child maybe.

I had to tilt my head backwards so gravity would hold it. XD

Untamed wig alert. I feel like this could double for a lazy Nick Wilde. XD

They're adorable.

What is Ivy doing with her hands though?

THIS IS THE BEST THING I HAVE EVER SEEN

Not just Anne for examples of why not to marry.

Katherine of Aragon: Died in forced seclusion and misery, banned from seeing her own daughter.

Jane: Died from childbed complications.

Anne [Anna] of Cleves: Wisely accepted an annulment and gained independence under Henry but was ultimately at the 'mercy' of her former step-children. Basically cast aside for displeasing Henry.

Catherine Howard: Beheaded.

Katherine Parr: Survived Henry only to die from childbed fever after putting up with scheming potato Thomas Seymour, who got himself executed for treason and left their child an orphan.

Mary I: Her husband Philip couldn't be bothered with her, not a happy marital life or death. Then Philip proposed to Elizabeth.

Mary Stuart: Darnley and Hepburn. Which, that depends on what Elizabeth believed about them but it wasn't great either way.

Catherine de Medici: Was openly treated like the 'other woman' by her husband who was all about his mistress-since-boyhood. [Could go either way on how much Elizabeth took note of that].

Claude of France [Anne Boleyn served in her court]: Died possibly due to complications of childbirth or syphilis courtesy of her husband.

Juana of Castile: Her husband and father [and then her son] did her no favors to put it mildly. [Not sure what Elizabeth would have known about her.]

If Elizabeth ever eyed historical royals, Isabella of Valois and Ingeborg of Denmark had it rough.

Ivan the Terrible was a salty biscuit when Elizabeth declined his proposal.

Robert Dudley would have almost certainly tried to take the reins of monarchy and she knew it. That would not have been a desirable marriage prospect even if the court had approved.

Edward IV and Henry VIII were notably similar and Edward's late reign wasn't an admirable portrait of kingship or marital life. If Elizabeth ever looked at it that way.

Bad marriages aside, with the court pressuring her to get married and start a baby-train, John Knox and his ilk losing their minds over queen regnants, and her own likely loss of power and autonomy in a political marriage there wasn't all that much for her to look forward to.

Loki watched as the massive, golden-furred wolf chased after the stick with an enthusiatic lope.  The wolf seemed disappointed when the stick snapped in half in it's powerful jaws and looked to Loki with an expectant whine.  The very image of a discontent [giant] pup looking to its master for assistance.  Nothing unusual about the situation in the least.

Except that the giant wolf was actually his older brother due to a magical mishap. And their parents were going to confine Loki to his room for life. 

"Thor?  ...Brother?"  Loki tried again hesitantly.  As before, the wolf grew excited as Loki spoke and bounded back over with a happy yip.  The wolf must have some sense of himself if not his memories because Thor responded to his name and Loki's presence with affectionate familiarity.  The wolf nudged and licked at Loki's face and he pushed his older brother away with a grimace.  "Thor, listen to me, try to think-"

Thor the wolf pushed at Loki with his snout before he playfully crouched from side to side.

Loki had only barely begun to learn to shift the forms of others and Thor had goaded him.  He had put a challenge before Loki and laughed one of his boisterous, smug laughs and Loki just had to show his brother up.  

But now this had happened and Loki honestly didn't know how to fix it.  He didn't dare try to change Thor back until he was right-minded.

Loki suddenly found himself shoved hard against the ground as Thor pounced on him.  He groaned at the sudden force and weight as Thor showered him with wolfish affection and sought play.  Loki tried to shove Thor off as his frustration and worry mounted.  His mother had told him that it was dangerous to transform even with experience.  That it could cause strange effects but Loki had been confident [and angry] and now...

Tears welled up in his eyes as he shoved again at the wolf.  He made a little sobbing noise as his mind went to the worst case, as a child who caused an accident whose consequences he was uncertain of.  What if Thor was stuck?  What if Loki had damaged his mind somehow?  What if-

Thor whined before he made a slow, low rumbling noise and carefully backed up from Loki.  He sat beside his brother with an almost questioning whine.  The wolf looked down at himself before he looked to Loki and tried to pat Loki's chest with an awkward paw.

The intent blue eyes peering into Loki's own green ones gave Loki pause. With a sniff, he rubbed his eyes on his sleeve and asked hopefully.  "Brother?"

Thor gave a low whine and then a nod as he pawed at Loki again.

Loki exhaled in relief even as Thor lowered his head and nudged Loki's cheek in concern.  And confusion, no doubt.  He couldn't help but fling his arms around his big brother's neck as Loki hugged the furry oaf tightly and mumbled.  "I thought I hurt you.  Your memories.  I thought-"  he cut off with an involuntary whimper and then felt a gentle but warm weight as Thor carefully leaned on him.  

Thor was confused and his mind was a little muggy.  He had come to himself when he'd seen Loki's tears and he had started to take the measure of the situation.  Thor wanted to be himself again but Loki's obvious worry and the tremble of his little brother's body was more pressing.  

Thor nuzzled at Loki's face lightly and murmured reassurances that came out as quiet growls and whines.  He laid down with his head and neck on Loki's chest in his brother's embrace.

Loki stroked his fur and buried his face against Thor's with another relieved exhale.  "We should...let Mother fix this...I-I am sorry, Thor.  I did not mean to-"

Thor cut off his anxious little brother by nosing at his mouth with a huff and little rumbling growl.  He couldn't do their gesture of affection but Thor pressed their foreheads together and Loki sniffled.

Loki hugged his brother tighter as instead of seeming angry, Thor was as ever weak to seeing Loki sad or fearful.  "Thank you, brother."  he whispered.

Thor rubbed their cheeks together in reply and gave a wolfish chuckle when Loki sneezed from the tickle of his fur.  He then lolled his head over Loki's face to his little brother's spluttering, muffled protest and gave his best rendition of a wolf's smile.

Short Prompt #1098

You held the stick tightly between your hands, trying to contain the shaking of your limbs. "G-Good boy..." You muttered, staring wide-eyed at the massive werewolf.

The monster was watching you intently, their tail wagging as they barked.

Carefully, you lifted the stick over your head and then threw it.

Loki: Give me one reason, just one, I shouldn't leave you here.

Thor: ...We're brothers.

Loki: Allow me to amend: a relevant reason.

Thor: ...Who would you make mischief against if I was gone?

Loki: Hm. Fair point. Tormenting you is a favorite pasttime of mine. [Saves Thor]

Thor: [resists the urge to say he knows Loki is actually helping for the first reason because he doesn't want to be stabbed right now].

For once. Just one time. I want this cliche conversation to go like this:

Character A: tell me why i shouldn't kill/beat you up/kick you out right now.

Character B: because we're family 🥺

A: ....

A: what the FUCK does this have to do with literally anything.

Crocheted a nerdy scarf for a coworker. Captain America's shield was trying to be a dome. XD Also the scarf looks like what happens when you dribble soda on a straw wrapper and I am not sure why. 🙃 Mjolnir and Cap's shield.
