Vi

From Arcane Season 2 ; EP5 & EP6

Thinking about this.

[rikemika]

the caitvi scene is my favorite just because its actually so genuine and just ugh. it’s not just them having sex you can genuinely tell how much they love and want each other. the little giggles and the way they look at each other is so adorable. and the way vi literally stops just to hug caitlyn?? the intimacy of the whole scene is so gorgeous and i’ll never get over it.

[rikemika]

holy shit the sex scene is even more intimate without the music

Escape from Divinity Ref Masterpost

These can also be found in the Info Doc, but for everyone’s convenience I thought I’d collate them here as well.  Disclaimer–there may be inconsistencies between drawings, and there may be more changes in the future depending on where I take the designs, so don’t sweat the small details too much.  I’ve also just…never drawn ref for some characters, which means for now their color schemes are up in the air a;sldkfj

Also, before baby Ash is marked in Part 1, he would have had blue eyes!  And their natural color would return after he disrupted the brand in Part 4.

Here are the photos of my first cardinal pattern’s test plush and then the revised pattern based off the edits. Then there is the test cardinal using correct colored fabric. You can find the full blog post with detailed explanations of all the photos on my website. Next I’m going to go over how I clean up my patterns, how I take my process photos, and how I write the instructions so that you can learn a bit of how to clean up your patterns once you’ve made them. I find it really important, even if you aren’t planning on selling or sharing your patterns online. If you come back to the pattern in a year, you might not remember what your thought process was for putting it together. Also, you never know when a family member or friend might want to borrow the pattern and wont be able to follow what you did. (My mom is always raiding my pattern book to make presents)

Crimes of Grindelwald on set visit: Katherine Waterston talks about Tina's Achilles' Heels, her view of MACUSA and magical creatures, Ilvermony school days and her capabilities as an Auror

FILMSTARTS: First of all, tell us a little bit what has changed for your character Tina Goldstein in the six months that lie between the storyline of the first and the second film ...

Katherine Waterston :Tina has gotten back her old job and has been working as an Auror for a while now. She has found her way back, and in the first film it looked quite different. At the beginning she was quite haunted by bad luck, but now everything has settled again and so she also has a little more self-confidence. She is in Paris, where we meet her at the beginning of the film. And what else has changed? She is wearing a really cool coat now!

FILMSTARTS: In "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them", Tina had a very special relationship with Credence, played by Ezra Miller. Will that be the same in the second movie?

Katherine Waterston : Yes, their special relationship continues. Tina is enthusiastic about her work and does it very thoroughly, but she has, as we already know from the first film, an Achilles heel: If she sees someone, especially a young person, in need, she just has to help. She throws all the rules overboard. Maybe that's because she had to take care of her sister Queenie early on as a kind of parent replacement. This has made her receptive to the concerns and needs of young people. And in the second film this comes to fruition, which is almost a kind of obsession with credence. She feels responsible for him.

FILMSTARTS: In the first movie we did not learn much about Tina and Queenie's background story. We know that her parents died early and they are very close. Will we now learn more about the history of the Goldsteins and the school days of the sisters in Ilvermorny?

Katherine Waterston: Oh, I know so much about it! I know so much and I can not tell you! Only so much: Yes, at some point you will learn more, but it may not be in this movie. But the relationship between the sisters will be important in this film as well, and there will be some surprising new elements that play a role in this particular relationship. And at some point, you may also see a young Tina, just as there will be a young Newt in "Fantastic Beasts 2".

FILMSTARTS: Hm, so it does not go so well with you and children. How about Tina and animals? Does she get on with the magical beasts a little better than in the first part?

Katherine Waterston: Newt really opened Tina's eyes to the beauty of these beasts in the first movie. So far, as an Auror, she has not had much to do with them, especially in America, where contact with these creatures is strictly regulated. They are considered dangerous. So when Tina discovers how intriguing these animals are in reality, she begins to realize she may need to question the authorities a bit more than before. At the beginning of the first film, she deals with them in a completely different way, she is simply scared, intimidated by their presence. Now that's really different, there's so much to discover about these animals, it's such great beings. It's fun to play someone who likes to surround themselves with the beasts.

FILMSTARTS: In the first part, Tina was obviously the character who adhered the most to the rules. But in the end she had to watch an authority figure who she had trusted turn into a masked Grindelwald. What after effects does it have on her that she found out?

Katherine Waterston: This is very similar to the beasts where she realizes that they are not as dangerous as they would have her believe. And somehow she also felt betrayed by the Aurors, who attacked Credence in the end, although of course they could not have known better. But they did not listen to her. All these things have led to her feeling that the system can have its faults. She is of course still a civil servant and she appreciates the work she does and considers it important. But maybe now she often questions the executives and makes her own decisions. This is an interesting aspect of her: On the one hand, she loves her work, but on the other hand, she is willing to become apostate when it's worth it.

FILMSTARTS: So did it feel like you were playing another character this time?

Katherine Waterston : No, the difference is not that drastic. That was all in her, even in the first part. We met her in the first movie when she was having a difficult phase in her life. But before that she was already a capable Auror and you can not become an Auror without being a really good witch. You have to be smart and strong and prudent. So these things have always been in her and in the first movie there were also brief moments where one got an idea of all her abilities, but then someone misunderstood her again or something went awry and she promptly became unsure. But even if she sometimes did not believe in herself, she always had those strengths. And that's why it does not feel schizophrenic to me that she's so different in the sequel. The figure is just developing and growing and that's something great. I've never had the experience to return to a character, I've never starred in a television series or anything. So it's fascinating to spend so much time with a character, get to know her better and see her grow. It's almost like being a real person [laughs].

FILMSTARTS: You could design your own wands? How cool is that!

Katherine Waterston : Yes, so we could at least choose from a few options. And then we did the finetuning. I chose the simplest and then asked to make it heavier. They then used a metal rod. Before that, it just did not feel real enough.

FILMSTARTS: And what would you change if you had the opportunity again?

Katherine Waterston: Hm, that would be kind of interesting if the design of the wand evolved with its owner. But maybe it's a good thing that it always stays the same and reminds you where you're from and who you really are. And mine is just plain and practical and robust, I like that. Tina is just not a dazzling, flashy, girlish woman and a good, solid wand without frills fits her. 

FILMSTARTS: But not only Tina herself has changed in the second film, her environment is different: she is now traveling in Europe. How does that affect you? Because in the first part she was in New York, yes on home territory. Is it difficult for her to be in another country and to get in contact with other magical communities?

Katherine Waterston : I think because she has now regained her self-confidence, she does not find that too difficult. She is, so to speak, "fully functional" and copes well. Actually, it would be interesting if she would get the just punishment for her bossy behavior towards Newt in New York and step into Paris in some faux pas by perhaps doing something insulting to the French by mistake. But I think you will not see that. And that the action takes place in different places with different cultures, but has a wonderful message. We are more connected than we are.

FILMSTARTS: And maybe in the city of love, will she relax a little? In the first part she was a very stiff person, only in the scene with Gnarlark, when she attended a bar in evening wear, she seemed to thaw a bit. Does she even have a little free time in Paris?

Katherine Waterston : Oh yes, she just chills, she chills all the time in a Parisian cafe ... [laughs] No, the situation is pretty serious in this movie, so she does not have time to put her feet up. But J.K. Rowling writes so many wonderful facets for her characters, so we'll see Tina in very different ways: we see her self-confidently and how she takes command. We see her overwhelmed and bumping around to get everything done. We see her vulnerable and generous. So there is a lot to do for me. But she will not chill ...
