"Alchemical Ascension" Event

In spite of the whole bonkers thing of TP Ganon wielding his own execution sword, I find it fascinating that he is using a weapon of Light to fight you --a weapon originally conceived for purposes of justice, and that light still steeps through him through the wound.

And, to top it all off, Link uses tools more aligned with darkness to fight him back (turning into a wolf, Midna becoming a eldritch horror...)

Symbolically this combo of reverse mirroring AND literal mirroring is very interesting I think

Wait did both Alice and Zane record Alan when he was at his lowest point? Didn't Alice make her exhibition to show the world what she sees? To show Alan the truth about himself? That it never was Scratch visiting and terrorizing her, but Alan himself? Did she depict his "self" and Zane depicted his "persona"? The two sides of him that he wishes he can eliminate bc they brought him into trouble (Scratch representing anger and the fallouts with paparazzi and stuff, Zane representing his self-destructive behavior with alcohol and drugs and the party nights)? The both sides that caused his marriage to start falling apart? Was that the reason Zane made that video of Alan when they were on that booze and drug-fueled bender while working on the Return manuscript? Is this party video the companion piece?? Alan's downward spiral, same as Alice's photos? Do they fucking work together aasdffjfjfkfk

With the Doomed Polycule AU how are the rest of the peak Lords affected after SY gets put under house arrest, and also after he disappears during the immortal alliance conference. I would imagine that SJ and YQY's relationship with deteriorate further and after the disappearance, YQY probably wouldn't be able to look SJ in the eyes, and SJ I could I can probably see him either telling YQY that if he ever comes to Qing Jing peak he's going to kill him or he could just leave without a word a go search for his brother.

Shen yuan in doomed poly is way more active than you would think. The Qiu household hardened him to where he doesnt take anyone's shit. He wants control just like his brother, but he is willing to use his hands to do so. He often fights with Qi Qingqi and Liu Qingge when they talk shit about his brother which leaves him with not a lot of friends outside of his disciples, Shang Qinghua and Mu Qingfang who he frequency goes on scavenging hunts for.

By the time the trial occurs no one is really Shocked or revolted. Sure they prefer him to his brother but they dont try to defend him. They're more surprised with the favoritism YQY shows by preventing him from being executed.

When it gets to immortal conference, YQY tries, but SXY lobs the palace master's decapitated head at him and asks if he wants to be next. So he drops it, he knows he failed again. But this time with the other shen brother. YQY favors SJ over SY even if he doesn't want to acknowledge it. When SJ comes to him saying he saw SY colluding with demons, he takes him at his word, and even spies on SY himself. Neither of them question SY to get an explanation and instead stick with this narrative in their head. After the first 2 years of isolation SJ never visits again because he is disgusted with his brother and how he is a traitor just like he suspected. And YQY visited but SY tells him to leave and never return, which he follows. Neither of them want to acknowledge or think about being wrong because that means confronting that they put their brother in complete isolation for 10+ years. YQY is guilty, but unlike with SJ there is no way to explain his way out of it. They left their brother to rot. To an outsider they look the same, but internally they are rotting. The people who are most vocal in their disgust is MQF and SQH who always rebelled against the idea and snuck in to visit SY when they can, but it is never frequent enough.

My exchange partner is @olyollyoxenfree!

I noticed Benno in the fav characters list, who I immediately chose for being one of the OG father figures and Myne's support. That and he hasn't had much screen time towards the end of the novel.

It's a parody of the "Y dis X look so mad" meme. Benno's the angry face of the team, but Mark is the one who will ruin your business from the shadows if you get in Benno's way.

Wish I could have spent more time on this, but lots of events happened towards the middle of July until now

Gossiping about Sigiswald backstage with Rozemyne and Ferdinand!

I love that Rozemyne's thought bubble is an actual quote from the book.

*dying laughing-

Yes. You're definitely playing into his 'evil, evil hands'

*strangled laughter-

And the end scene of this book? (spoilers if you haven't read it, but if you know what this is from then you probably have-)

I loved it so much!

*intense fangirling in my little corner over here-

Especially seeing it from Lutz' pov where Rozemyne is just blushing all over the place?!

*more intense fangirling/manic grinning-

It was just so- so-

Yeah. It was cool. I liked it a lot.

I didn't end up doing the shading on this purely because I just don't have as much time as I used to, and I'm probably gonna be pretty busy for the next week with midterm tests prep- *sigh...

I did want to do the colouring though, since I absolutely love the fact that Ferdinand's outfit matches Rozemyne's hair and that Rozemyne's outfit matches Ferdinand's hair-

*internal screaming-

I love this entire series. It is kind of sad that it's pretty much finished, but that's what fanfiction and fanart is for, amiright?

(glances over at the various au ideas and animatics that I still have in the 'in progress/drafts' pile-)

Anyway. I'm definitely still gonna be doing fanart for this series for a long time. Just so you guys are aware~

:D

(and maybe actually finish the fanfic which I got like 57,000 words in and left un-updated for over a year- *cough - Myne working for Police Superintendent Ferdinand au anyone? Can't believe I started that like, last year- it's been so long... Drawing is... More my forte when it comes to committing to things, but I am planning on finishing it, university got in the way - *cough)

Reading Thrawn Ascendancy: what a nice young man :) surely he isn't still marked by a giant hole in his soul that affects his ability to process or even acknowledge his own inherent loneliness. World's funniest delivery of war crimes.

The flap of a bird’s wing is divine, the rain is divine, the breeze is divine, walking is divine, writhing in agony is divine, bleeding is divine, crying is divine, electricity is divine, humming is divine, rocks are divine, trees are divine, clouds are divine, and I speak on this not as a human but as a fragment of a much larger cosmic consciousness of god-like gospel and of unreligous yet holy nature.

things I was expecting the Shadow of the Erdtree final boss to be:

we get to the divine gate and find that Miquella is being puppeted by a gross black deathblight slug (kinda like what happened to Gwyndolin in DS3). he tried to bring Godwyn back. Godwyn came back wrong (if it was even truly him at all). now we get a Saint of the Deep shout-out fight.

we get to the divine gate and find out that Miquella has been dead the entire time AND NOW WE GET TO FIGHT A JUICED-UP NEEDLE KNIGHT LEDA BECAUSE SHE WAS USING US TO GET TO THE DIVINE GATE AND BECOME A GOD HERSELF THE ENTIRE TIME.

things I was not expecting the Shadow of the Erdtree final boss to be:

the final boss of Wattpad.

Concept: elf tav who is just under 300, all of her children died as adventurers or guards. Her husband and her became vastly different people in the wake of all the grief. They havent spoken in years, incapable of existing around each other before breaking down. The journey after the crash she keeps seeing shadows her kids in the various party members and as such she desperately wants to help them. Save them in ways she couldn't for her own children. A pillar of love and guidance because her children may be gone, but she will always be a mother.
