Блэк энд уайт (1932)

"Black and White." From what I can gather this is a Soviet propaganda film about colonialism and the mistreatment of African workers. There is a very striking scene in which the white owner is driving down a road with palm trees which transitions the trees to dead (lynched?) men in telephone wires.

It ends on a depressing note as a lone freedom fighter is executed via electric chair.

[meirimerens]

it seems to me that the deal with pathologic 2 english dubbing is entirely dividing all of the characters into three categories: British, South Park character and Women (with intended derogation). honestly drives me insane a bit because with russian well we don't really have that distinct of accents so everyone kinda sounds the same in that manner... and it almost feels less theatrical (maybe it should. but the way english dubbing sounds theatrical To Me is. well. NAWT GOOD) in russian voice over, especially with the kids. (still thinking about british 20 y.o. oxford student that is Notkin and south park caricature voiced by an adult woman that is Khan in english dub. *[metaphorically] holding a cig in between my fingers pensively* still not dealing very well with it emotionally.) the only voice that set me absolutely fucking insane in russian voice over was Eva's – WHY DOES SHE TALK LIKE THAT!! WHAT DID THEY DO TO HER!!!!! misogyny in casual ways etc. etc. but with english dubbing every other character forced a fight or flight response out of me. idk maybe i am a bit biased but with the way it is just so different.... pathologic 2 (RUS) and pathologic 2 (ENG) are like two siblings who are mostly the same but one of them is objectively . uglier than the other. speaking of siblings, it turns out Stamatins have DIFFERENT voice actors in english. this feels like a crime....

i could talk about the voices for Hours bro i played the game russian voices/english subtitles and most of the lp's i watched also went this route except One so i discovered the english voices like second-handedly and Scared Me bro scared me... i've already talked about the kids' voices like I Know. I Know how hard it is to VA kids especially if you have to work with regulations making it harder to hire child VAs (for the better of the kid mind you, i'm not saying #bringbackunregulatedchildlabor here) and i'm sure the women who voice teenage/child boys are doing their absolute bests but man. i think the suspension of disbelief works way more when working with for ex. anime voice acting bc you can See the characters are only vague simulacra of children, but in a game that has pretty detailed 3D models and strives for a certain realism in the faces and whatnot, it is Jarring...

i think the use of British/generally Non-American english accent is like a commin trope to denote a foreignness or a different social status (because most of the anglophone players Will Be americans because. bigger country) but like. come on. look_how_they_massacred_my_boy.mp4... i'm sure there are subtleties within the russian voices that i'm not gettin because. well i'm not russian i guess that helps that would be Complicated to transpose in english but like. worarrgh.

i'm Very Glad both of these games had a release with an english voice acting cast because we like. Know. the tendency that americans have wrt Foreign Media / refusing to interact with things if they are not Dubbed in english even if they are subtitled [i think the whole Parasite movie release put that on the carpet again but i knew of it way before that] so it allowed for More People to check out the games [again. for the better and the worse...]

can we talk about eva and the twins let me talk about eva and the twins. can i talk about eva and the twins?

p2 russian eva has a light and high-pitched voice but it's kinda like. airy and hazy like she's deep in thoughts like she's daydreaming... her english voice sounds like the squeaky voices anglophone VTubers make so sound like cutesy anime girls. she sounding more like a child. and when you pair it with her neotonous face with her fit that looks like a child having dressed themselves and the general "youthening" of her personality. well i ain't saying anything but i'm making the biggest side-eye known to man rn!

p1 russian andrey has a sort of like high almost mighty and haughty attitude, kinda towering, p1 russian peter also has this sort of height with pride to it but fraying on the ends like mouth woolen (the Drink)... p1 english andrey has some of that height and restraint, kinda high in the throat like he's being above... p1 english peter is Squeaky. he's so squeaky. almost sounds giddy from time to time but also. The Drink. my man an arm on the wall drink in the other at a party telling you about shit only his drunk mind can comprehend...

p2 russian andrey has a depth and a certain Mystery but it still looks natural/like he's Deep In Thoughts... p2 russian peter is way #deeper than his p1 counterpart but it still looks natural/that's a Depressed voice if i ever heard one. scraping the floors with it.

p2 english andrey is so raspy it's kinda comical like he playin toughguy and p2 english peter while still Deep is like Theatrical to a goofy extend like IT'S NOT THAT SERIOUS. YOU SLEEP IN A BATHTUB 😭😭

while it. is normal for siblings to have different voices and would make sense for two siblings to have different voices, and as such voice actors... it doesn't for the stamatwins!! are you crazy? you SEPARATE the stamatwins? you make them into two people instead of two sides of a same coin? JAIL!! JAIL FOR THE VOICE ACTORS

Autumn, 1897

The days began to cool, and sunlight faded more swiftly; leaves fell from the trees, painting the ground in shades of orange and red. Autumn heralded its arrival, while the Ivanov boys kept growing strong and healthy, much to the joy of Mildred and Boris. Though now older and closer to Alexei, Artur still did not get along with him, despite their efforts to live in peaceful harmony.

Artur would relentlessly beckon Alexei to join his wild outdoor games—chasing chickens and tumbling in the earth—but Alexei found far greater comfort in staying inside, wrapped in the house's warmth, where the gentle notes of his violin danced by the glow of the hearth.

Storyteller Saturday! 💖 If you were to choose one or two specific colours to represent each of your major characters, what ones would you choose and why? Any symbolism there?

This is hella late but HAPPY STS! ✨

Lord Artur: Cerulean blue and amber yellow. For the water and the jewelry that his mother left behind for him.

Vlarovena Irina: White and light pink. For her rigidity and the femininity that she hides to prevent people from seeing her as a weak woman.

Vlarovena Katya: Lavender and a pale yellow. Lavender for her soft femininity that she has no problem showing off and using. Pale yellow for the beautiful yellow flowers next to her favorite bench in the courtyard.

Lord Mischa: Forest green and deep purple. Green for the safe forest surrounding his childhood home and his own envy. Purple for the royalty plunged through his veins.

Russian Nationals started today.

I did good. I hadn’t jumped until yesterday. I feel okay. No pain, which is good, so I was able to compete. I felt okay during my program. I’m trying to be realistic - I know winning would take a lot to happen since I’m competing with only triples. My only goal is getting on the European team so I have a chance at the Olympics.

I can do this.

Begin Again: Chapter 6

Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 4 Part 5 Part 7  End

Tags are at the bottom; let me know if I’ve missed you or you wanna be added! Thanks for reading along, and for all the feedback, it’s super appreciated! x

This is partially filler, I hold my hands up to that. Still some kinda fun stuff. Hope you enjoy!

‘[Y/N], don’t you think he’s got a point?’

As much purpose as you felt, you imagined you looked comically weak, walking at a slow enough pace so not to strain yourself but still serious enough. Whether it was more embarrassing or not, Bucky had slowed down from a normal speed to stay with you.

‘What do you think I’m going to do, exactly?’ you scowled. ‘I'm not an idiot.’

‘You’re just as impulsive as Stark is.’

You didn’t like the accusation in his voice. ‘Bucky, I hate to play this card but, I’m the one who got stabbed here, I think I’ve earned at least knowing who did it.’

Bucky stayed quiet.

If Bucky was going to be put off by you keeping something important from him, you weren’t going to take it lying down. You hadn’t intended on hiding it from him for the sake of his ‘fragility’ (you didn’t even think was fragile), but for the sake of Tony.

You marched into the lab, gathering the attention of everyone in the room. Tony was silently telling you to leave; the fact that he didn’t voice it meant he was being lenient. You ignored his glare and stood next to Bruce who was scrolling through several documents at the same time on different monitors.

‘What’ve we got?’

Bruce settled on what looked like a profile page. The man’s photograph on the left and information on the right, all in Russian.

‘His name’s Artur Ivanov. Born 1974. That’s all I can read from this.’

‘His mother was American,’ Natasha continued, leaning closer to the screen,  blue eyes scanning the Russian words with impressive speed. ‘Born in Norilsk, family moved here ... He’s been serving in Hydra since he was forty and formed some sub-organisation when it collapsed. Before all that ... he was a cop.’

Steve quirked an eyebrow. ‘Can we track him down?’

‘FRIDAY?’ Tony alerted.

A  hologram map of Central and North America arose across the lab bench in  the middle of the room, prompting everyone in the room to gather around  the center.

‘Scanning all cameras from Queens outwards.’ FRIDAY’s voice boomed from the speakers. The map zoomed in closer and closer on North America, until -

‘I’m sorry - Dover?’ you scowled, but not loud enough that everyone could hear you. ‘You get missions in Africa and Europe and the guy who stabs me is in Delaware?

‘Looks like was last seen here at an active base half an hour ago after being rescued. They used stolen rental cars.’ Natasha leaned away from the hologram, reading the room.

You didn’t want to admit it out loud given how strange it would sound, but the news that he was alive lightened your heart slightly. ‘Do we know what happened to the other guy?’

An image of the barista with a bullet in his skull and a pistol lying by his open fist appeared.

‘They must’ve shot him dead,’ Bucky muttered. ‘Cleared all traces.’

Wanda paled slightly at the image. ‘Why would they shoot one and save the other?’

‘That guy knew I was there and probably didn’t tell him,’ you replied. ‘I’m guessing Hydra doesn’t take too kindly to errors. Ivanov must be important if they kept him around.’

Steve was studying the image of the two men unconscious on the ground from when you had left them. ‘If these guys know Bucky is out of cryo and were in New York, then we don’t have much time before they come for us.’

'Shouldn’t you wait?’ you asked quietly, looking up at Tony for approval. You then realised you were speaking to people at a much higher qualification than you; while you were sure they hadn’t meant to look intimidating, you still took a moment to hold your own. ‘I’m just saying, I got hurt because they knew I’m close to Tony. Maybe Bucky’s not the only one they’re after. What if they’re trying to provoke you too?’

‘No.’ Bucky’s voice caught you off-guard. He looked like he had been mulling the information in his head, allowing it to settle before he had spoken. ‘If they’re after Tony, or any of you, I’m not gonna wait until they make another move,’ he continued. 'We don’t know what they want with me, but I want to lead this one.’ Despite Bucky having melted into the walls before, he spoke with an authority you hadn’t heard before.

And, as if answering an unasked but lingering question - Why do you want this so badly? - ‘I know him,’ he said curtly. ‘I worked with him, more than once.’  

You were sure you weren’t the only one drawn by the staring contest between Bucky and Tony. Although Bucky was being positive, there was still something tense about their interaction. Tony’s expression was unreadable.

‘Tony,’ you asked quietly. ‘you’re okay with them going?’

‘I’m not in charge, technically they can do what they want,’ he replied, eventually looking away.

Tony’s change in attitude took you by surprise. He could be impulsive but the severity of the situation would, under usual circumstances, cause him to approach with caution ever since Sokovia. He wouldn’t change his mind without reason.

‘I’m coming too,’ said Natasha, her eyes vacant from your conversation and heavy with her own thoughts. She looked up at everyone around her and nodded slightly, as if agreeing with her own words.

Steve didn’t seem thrown. ‘If they find out, they won’t trust you again.’

‘They already don’t,’ she said, folding her arms and shrugging lightly. ‘You guys do, though. And you’ll need what I know.’

‘So, aside from - what - the wrath of the United Nations, there’s no downside,’ Sam said nonchalantly.

‘Okay,’ said Bucky, ‘we’ll fly out in an hour.’

When you saw the others next, they had mapped their strategy out and were filing through the compound on their way to the hangar, ready to leave within the hour. With Rhodes needed elsewhere - you tended to forget he had another job - only you and Tony were the ones left. He had helped you out of the room, trying to stick to principle by not involving himself. You could tell it was killing him.

You were walking to your lab space when you saw Bucky walking towards you, and you were unsure of whether to say something or not. It was his first mission since you had arrived at the compound, and it felt odd not to, regardless if things had become rocky.

‘I know you’ve done this before,’ you said apprehensively, leaning your shoulder against the wall and folding your arms, ‘but it’s new to me, seeing you go on one of these things.’

Bucky had been making a beeline for the elevators to the main reception behind you, stopping as though he hadn’t expected you there, or was lost in his thoughts.

‘There anything I can do to ease your mind?’ he asked, recovering from his daze, hands in his pockets. His pose was a strange contrast to his tactial gear.

You shrugged half-heartedly. ‘You’ll come back in one piece, right?’ you tried to sound  nonchalant, but you heard malaise slip through. ‘You’ve  sort of got a reputation of splitting in two,’ you added, eyes  darting to his Vibranium arm and then back.

Bucky caught you looking and smiled, looking crafty. ‘I’m feeling pretty good about this one, I think it’s gonna last.’

‘As  long as the rest of you does too,’ you said before you could help it,  enjoying the banter that seemed more usual to yours and Bucky’s  conversations. ‘I kind of wish I was going. I can’t imagine I’d be of much use.’

Stop talking, you seethed at yourself.

He shook his head. ‘I’m glad you’re staying,’ he said. ‘Not because I think you’d be useless,’ he added quickly. ‘Just ... you should rest.’

After a beat, he said, ‘I shouldn’t be pissed you didn’t tell me.’

‘We don’t have to talk about that.’ You shook your head mildly. Annoyed as you were about Bucky’s reaction, it was also reasonable (to an extent) and given that he had to go and potentially risk his life at that moment, you figured it wasn’t important.

‘I just,’ he stopped, looking for the right words, one hand going to run through his hair, ‘I get why you had to. And you didn’t owe me that anyway.’

The sound of the elevator alerted you.

‘Hey!’ Sam called. ‘Jet’s ready, let’s go.’ He jerked his head towards the elevator, gesturing for Bucky to make a move. You realised he still probably had to load up on weaponry. ‘[Y/N], what are you doing standing up?’

You raised your hands in mock surrender and backed away. ‘I’m going, save your energy.’

Bucky, walking back with Sam, turned to look at you. ‘I’ll see you soon?’

HUSKY – INVISIBLE from Evgenii Bakirov on Vimeo.

The shooter tries to kill the victim, but does not see him. The victim tries to escape from the shooter, but the bracelet on his leg makes a sound.

Excerpts of the song:

Invisible one, asleep in the corner Invisible one, who paints the haze Tramp painting exploded gas Invisible one, an eyesore I wrote this rap invisible I stole a pencil, unable to bear it In someone's kitchen a stove hood was buzzing I picked words casually

A squadron of days will fade away with sails My pictures will come out of the walls’ frame You’ll enter, rifle through blindly for the light Who will follow you with a bullet? I’ll settle pale as Petersburg Doors of moans break from the hinges of the lips You merged, leaving veils of faces You asked for it, voyeur

Vladimir Verevochkin ans Artur Ivanov in the Golden Hord

HolopAU

[risusims]

The summer sunrays brought more than just new beginnings for Alexei, but also for his little brother, Artur, and the entire Ivanov family.

The little one took his first steps, now a bigger and more curious baby. With newfound freedom to roam and no longer confined to his cradle, he discovered his latest fascination: water! Every time Mildred would go to wash clothes and leave the basin unattended, Artur would rush over, eager to play with the soapy water within.

While Alexei lingered near his mother, familiar with the rhythms of helping her with household tasks, Artur’s heart danced to a different tune.

He delighted in roaming the fields with Boris, his little hands sinking into the earth, as his father watched over the cattle and the crops beneath the wide, open sky.

And there was yet another surprise—no, surprises!

New babies were born, one of them, Anya the first girl to grace the Ivanov family. Alongside her, came little Angus, the first child to bear more of Boris’s features than Mildred’s, a reflection of his father in every way.

The official introduction for my WIP Don’t Promise Spring. A novel set in a fictional Russian-Esque country filled with war-tired subjects and war-hungry nobles. Set in the capital of Nazadar, named Angavda, the novel will take place during the Festival of Spring to celebrate the end of winter. It focuses on the nobles who have the chance to make a difference but they will have to sort out their own problems first. This novel will feature four POVs: Vlarovena Irinushka Voronin, Lord Artur Faline, Vlarovena Katya Voronin, and Lord Mischa Ivanov. 

On this blog, I’ll post character introductions, excerpts, aesthetics, playlists, and anything else that has to do with this wonderful work! Below is a look at the four main POV characters but 250 characters is hardly enough to explain these babies so please follow! 

[WIP Tag]    [Don’t Promise Spring - Pinterest]

I love being a part of this world and I’d love for you to join me! The taglist is at the end of this post - please let me know if you’d like to be added!

Main Characters:

Vlarovena Irinushka “Irina” Voronin // 18 - She/Her - Nazadarian

The heiress to the Nazadarian throne is a fickle one; she is stubborn and strong-willed with a slight disposition of distrust towards men. She thinks them to be arrogant and bloodthirsty by nature. Irina wants to break tradition in her family, stray away from war and focus instead on her people, but Nazadar has always been ruled by an iron fist. Her mother is pushing her to marry and her father is getting himself into more danger every day. The throne is looming over their family and while Irina is not the first in line it would not be the first time for the second child to rule Nazadar. During the Festival of Spring, dozens of “suitable bachelors” descend onto the capitol but Irina doesn’t have time for any of them, much less the one who’s charm is only skin deep and seems to be hiding secrets.

Lord Artur Faline of Provo // 27 - He/Him - Nazadarian

Lord Artur of Provo is a kind man who leads his providence on the Western coast of Nazadar with a soft hand. Artur is a healer and a scholar who watches over his people with kind eyes and tries to make decision to help them the most. His providence has been a melting pot for the refugees of countless wars for centuries but the constant war is putting a strain on their resources and comfort. Frustrated and determined, he travels with his sister Liliya to Angavda to have an audience with the Vlarov but he finds himself entangled in petty politics and more entertwined with the heiress more than he would like to be.

Vlarovena Katya “Iya” Voronin // 16 - She/Her - Nazadarian

Katya is a young soul who thrives on fairy tales and soft words. She has a radiant smile and a golden heart but she is too self-sacrificing to show it to anyone. She does not care about the crown or the weight it holds but she cares about the people around her and only wants to see them happy. When a young Lord comes to court her sister, she has no choice but to put her budding feelings aside and help him catch her eye.

Lord Mischa Ivanov // 24 - He/Him - Nazadarian

A soldier in the Vlarov’s army who should have never been the head of his family. Ill-suited to the job and with his grandmother running thr show behind him, Mischa ventures to the capitol to attempt to catch the eye of the heiress to the Nazadarian throne. Unfortunately, he is as skilled at court as he is with women; but when the youngest Vlarovena offers to help him catch her eye, he can’t help but say yes.
