Hey, don’t cry. Free online database of Japanese folk lore

i had a dream that time travel was invented and too many people choose to travel back in time to save the titanic from sinking (the question of whether unsinking of the titanic deserved so much attention in the face of human history was the subject of both heavy academic and online discourse), which caused a rift in the space-time-continuum that led to the titanic showing up indiscriminately all over the world’s oceans and sea in various states of sinking.

this caused a lot of issues both in terms of fixing said space-time-continuum and in terms of nautical navigation, and after a long and heavy battle in the international maritime organization it was decided that the bureaucratic burden of dealing with this was to be upon Ireland, much to their dismay. the Irish Government then released an app for all sailors and seafarers so they could report titanic sightings during their journeys, even though they heavily dissuaded you from reporting them given the paperwork it caused.

anyway i woke up with a clear image of the app in my head and needed to recreate it for all of you:

Gwaine: Arthur asked me to pretend to be his boyfriend because his father is homophobic and wants him to date a noble but he ended up hating me so much that he was relieved when he found out Arthur was actually dating Merlin

Lancelot: Task failed successfully

Leon: Congratulations on being so awful you destroyed century old prejudices

I know it’s 2020 but Merlin AU where Uther notices a bunch of problems that could only be solved by magic ~spontaneously~ getting solved around Arthur, and concludes that this must be a side effect of Arthur only existing due to magical intervention. An intense bigotry-versus-parental-love internal conflict commences, followed by some that’s-pretty-hypocritcal-of-you-isn’t-it-dad screaming external conflict, generally upending everything. Merlin is standing in the corner the entire time holding a serving jug of mead and sweating.

This piece is Fanart I did for a fic I recently read called "Dig Up the Dandelions" by ImSorREY on AO3. It's a fantastic Snarriet fic still in progress and it had such a marvelous take on soulmates that I felt inspired so you all get art!

Enjoy! Link to the fic is on the title if you're interested 💚 Dig Up the Dandelions💚

A list of canonical (to me) things Gale did while pining for Tav.

- Trying to subtly set up dinner seating to encourage them to sit next to him. i.e Notices Tav prefers logs to stools so he sits next to a log everytime. (Annoyed when it doesn't work/Someone else takes the seat).

- Pretends not to hear the first few times he's called, so Tav says his name again (he is conflicted about this habit, he doesnt want to come across as rude).

- Staring (this is all but stated), my heart says specifically with his chin resting in his hand, watching Tav from across the camp a book open in his lap for plausible deniability.

- Mentioning (more than he already does) how much Tav would like Waterdeep. Oh you like plays/food/magic well in Waterdeep... He's determined to at least get them to visit.

- Minor magical improvements to camp, raising the ambient temp slightly, improving the smell of camp. Spells that are too small to really brag about, but he wants credit for doing, but people don't tend to notice. (another source of annoyance for him)

- Bragging to other companions, if he and Tav have a pleasant exchange or moment. "You know I told a very humorous tale earlier, Tav seemed to enjoy it quite a bit would you like to hear it?"

i love how halsin is all like "well i don't really have many friends. i am kind of a loner you see. i mean there's thaniel and oliver. and you (?) but other than that" bc there is something extremely comedic about a man that for a while you only knew by reputation, a reputation which was "incredibly kind man, talented, will definitely help you," very earnestly be like "yeah people don't really like me :/ i don't really fit in anywhere" like OHHHH i finally get what your deal is. you are insecure
