#I just thought this idea was cool

I can’t find a source for this but I remember hearing somewhere that this is sort of how the Mongol empire treated religion, with the idea that their god Tengri was specifically the god of the Mongol people, and they didn’t want non-Mongols worshipping him, and so they were exceptionally religiously tolerant (which is definitely true)
Whether it’s true or not I think it’s a really cool concept, and one I’ve decided to implement (fairly loosely) in my take on the “big homogenous human empire” in my homebrew setting
In the far reaches of the empire, citizens are actively barred from converting to the empire’s official religion, with the right to do so (and all the prestige and influence that comes with it) only granted to those who earn the emperor’s favour or rise to prominence in the imperial court
Priests of the religion spend most of their time ensuring the wrong people aren’t practising their tenets (sometimes not even able to practise them themselves) and trying to keep the secrets of the faith (sometimes knowledge as simple as the religion’s primary deity or if they even have one) from getting out
The result of this secrecy is often theological debates where non-imperial theologists argue not which religion is closer to the truth, but which religion is closer to that of the emperor, claiming their imperial majesty surely worships “my god” or practises “my way of worship”
Thus concludes yet another session of thinly-veiled-attempts-to-infodump-about-the-fantasy-world-in-my-head
Cleric who's trying to make everyone else atheists.
It's their god, not anyone else's.

Okay, but what if EoW!Zelda had to impersonate Link
#echoes of wisdom#the legend of zelda#loz#loz eow#zelda#link#josh art tag#the scenario i imagine is that nobody but zelda onows that link got got#and link presumably when on a whole quest to save zelda so people would know him or at least of him#so maybe zelda would feel the need to make everyone think everything would be okay#cuz look! links still here and taking care of things!#idk i just think its a cool idea and its one ive actually had for a while#a little while ago i wondered what the next loz game would be like and what i would want to see#and i of course thought of playable zelda#but i thought#what would cause zelda to be playable?#so i thought maybe something would happen to link and he would be unavailable so zelda would take his place#and then that idea fit so well with eow!#i think its fun seeing a zelda in the classic green. and the hat#imposter!zelda au

I get why people may insist that Fear and Anxiety have sibling vibes and not romantic ones but in that case THERE WOULDN’T BE A LITERAL “I CAN FIX HER” JOKE right in the movie, come on guys 😆
Look at the faces this mf makes while mentioning her?
I mean would they expect people to NOT ship it? I am dead sure they saw this coming. Too many hints, too many. They had test screenings with teenage girls of all people. They are real experts in stuff like this!
#like I’m not AGAINST the idea of them having a sibling-like dynamic#it’s cool#BUT for me personally they are 100% a couple#yeah#I saw people calling shippers out mentioning that Anxiety was pitched as his cousin#but AGAIN#!!!pitched!!!#this was scrapped#it’s NOT canon#+ all these hints and faces Fear makes#and a literal I cant fix her joke#checkmate??#lets stop complaining and just chill out with our comfort ships#inside out#inside out 2#inside out fear#inside out anxiety#fear x anxiety#anxiety x fear#pairing#my thoughts

“Don’t… don’t tell him you think dingbat fonts are cool.”
AUGH @forgettable-au fanart :3 been on another roll with it (in agony constantly)
theres some untranslated wingdings cause i love translating it myself, hope others do too :D
not confident on how “canon” or in-character this is but- I HAD FUN this AU has really got me in the rendering spirit, I really enjoy taking inspiration but also adding mu own silly twists on it and AAA everything looks even more tasty now
I view this as them in New Home after getting something to eat (after the last page update) and heading back the same way since Alphys’ place is on the way to The Lab. The font convo comes back up again and then yeah
Alsoooo if youre interested in behind the scenes stuff heres the speedpaint :3
also i never poster about this- but i had another forgettable dream. it didn’t make any godamn sense. I woke up and drew the only scene I could remember:
Wingdings and Sans had a fight and ig wingdings killed Sans 😭😭😭 in a stairwell for some reason
and current Sans, Papyrus brother Sans, is like watching all of this and was brought here by Lancer like a Ghost Of Christmas Past type situation. Idk why. I choose not to attempt to make sense of this anymore. But i swear this is an actual dream i had 😭
#undertale#undertale fanart#undertale au#forgettable au#forgettable au fanart#wingdings i hate you#/pos#wingdings is the bane of my existence#/aff#it doesnt look like New Home#ignore that#angst?#more funny than sad#but still sad#Cause I imagine wingdings was so bothered by the fact that he couldnt talk to anyone without Sans’ help#and he couldnt get the hang of speaking in a different font for the longest time#so he just kinda became apathetic to the idea of making any kind of connection#with anything that wasnt science#like now he ‘doesnt care’#but before DUDE WAS STRUGGLING#i have a sneaking suspicion he still is struggling#like mans is lying to himself fr fr#but also THE FUNNY#I love just thinking about the inflection on how they would say their lines#yeaaaaaaahhhhhhhh… ‘cooool’#i got this idea from how I always thought of Gaster as really cool before this au#like omg bro can speak in SYMBOLS??? THATS RAD#but then- oh yeah if you really think about it…#thats not all that cool. cause yknow#talking to people and making connections is a thing.

DC x DP Prompt
Some way, somehow (up to you), Dan, Danny, and Dani all end up living with Vlad.
Vlad is ecstatic. The three D's aren't, but it's not like they have a choice.
To push things forward, they end up begrudgingly going to a Wayne Gala with him, and like most gala kids, they were subjected to forceful, nosy, uncomfortable, and unnecessary questions from adults they don't like, and they know, don't really care.
One of the few obvious questions would be, 'How old are you?'.
Dan, despite being in a clone body of Danny, grows just a bit faster and taller than him and refuses to be the same age as that twerp. So he says that he's one year older than Danny.
Danny, who is absolutely pissed that his clone body is growing faster than him and also refuses to be the same age as that asshole, uses his actual age.
Dani, on the other hand, is having some internal struggles about being a clone and how her body and mind were basically forced to become more mature than she actually is. How she desperately wishes to be a child but will never have the opportunity to be. Or how she wants to be her own person but doesn't know how, and is simply borrowing from everyone around her.
She gets the dreaded question, 'How old are you?'. She doesn't want to be too close to Dan or Danny and 'copy' them. But she doesn't want to be too far off from them because she's really not much smaller than Danny, and also finds comfort in being close to them even if she is just 'copying' them. So she says she's a year younger than Danny.
The Gala goes on, yada yada yada. Then they go home.
A few weeks later, one of the D's (I'm thinking Dan) finds an online article about the Masters family and begins laughing their ass off.
Apparently, Irish twins were one thing. But Irish triplets? That had the general public and social elite in an uproar for weeks to come.
#dp x dc#dc x dp#dcxdp#dp x dc crossover#dpxdc#dp dc crossover#dp x dc prompt#dc x dp prompt#lol i wanted to add the batfam but didn't know how#dani must be named dani for this prompt to work#lol this is word vomit#i just thought the idea of irish twins to be cool and went#WHAT ABOUT IRISH TRIPLETS!!!!#and that's how this shit came to be#Dani angst because if i was a clone i would constantly asking myself#am i me?#or am i just someone else pretending to be me?#do yall see my vision#do you?

wanna see a magic trick? 🪄🎩
#YEAYYYY i like drawing this guy#now that i think abt it i cant remember the last time i saw a furry with tattoos.... ive decided not to think too hard about how it would#work but i think i like the idea of him getting playing card tats on his ears would be cool ^_^#apparently anthro species on furth include birds and mammals and i think fish amphibians and reptiles are non anthro#so instead of whipping out doves he would make white butterflies appear out of his hat :o)#its sort of meant to tie in with the ruffles on his shirt resembling a butterfly!!! i thought id make it close to a swallowtail so#that way its easy to see at a glance. i think that would look really cool irl#he looks a lot like joker p5 now that i look at it... it wasnt intentional but the red eyes and black messy hair is obvious huh#oh but the way his hair curls in the front isnt strictly in one direction just so that its easy to draw lol. its meant to curl around his#hat brim a little bc i thought it would look cool#my art#myart#my oc#oc#sleight#laika's comet#laika's comet oc#fan character#furry#furry art#fur

one thing about ik is that she will always reach out
#obey me#art#i had the idea for this and managed to bulldoze through drawing it all without losing motivation halfway through#but Do Not expect me to post art this frequently in future#idk how to do panels so if the middle bit with the text might be laid out weird#i added the stars and feathers and stuff because there was a bunch of empty space around the boxes#obey me satan#jtta ik#(btw the crumbling symbol next to the exploding feather is the wrath symbol from in-game)#(with the pride symbol attached upside down at the bottom)#(not so much symbolism as it is just me whacking you over the head with the point but it looks cool)#i had a lot of fun doing satan's more monstrous design so i might try my hand at some of the other demons later?#i do have some ideas for levi (deep sea creatures are just really fun)#also happy nightbringer release day!! it showed up on my homescreen like half an hour ago and i was like “wait what”#for some reason i thought it wasn't releasing til next week??#the new genshin patch is today as well so looks like i'll have plenty to do with the rest of my free time for the easter hols#(i promise i'm also working on the next chapter of jtta but i am so stuck on how to get lucifer actually Talking)#anyway. here's a gold star for making it through all my rambling in the tags for anyone who did so: ⭐

trucy: hang on polly you have a hair on you—oh, it’s long and…blonde. again.
apollo, internally: oh my god they’re all going to think i’m STRAIGHT and that i’m sleeping with a WOMAN
trucy, athena, and wright all thinking: oh that’s for sure klavier’s :/
#ace attorney#klapollo#aa incorrect quotes#apollo justice#klavier gavin#take apollo’s tone as you will#because sometimes people assuming i’m straight is like the actual worst thing you could do to me😤#but sometimes i feel like a secret agent😏 like yes😏 hello fellow straights😏😏#also i like the idea that apollo is just SO intent on minding his own business#that he doesn’t even realize that everyone he knows is gay#like he’s so smart if he thought about it he’d realize immediately but like man is too busy thinking about law for that sorry#so he’s just habitually ‘hello fellow straights’-ing them and they are ALL confused#me projecting tbh i’d rather die than let most coworkers know absolutely anything of value about my life😤#which works until one of them IS actually nice and chill and cool#and then they get blindsided when you finally reveal that you actually DO have a personality lol

my Nevarra headcanon is that they love Memento Mori rings
#(irl these rings / types of jewellery more generally are thought to have been in use in Europe from the 16th century as a way to#remember a recently deceased loved one and serve as a reminder that death is never far away)#which is a very cool concept to me and i will be stealing it for dragon age purposes#i like the idea that they buy or exchange them for special occasions. not just deaths but also milestone birthdays and weddings and such#as a culture they're big on death and also gold and also heavy ornamentation so this makes sense to me#and you know. a birthday is a step closer to death. a wedding means more heartbreak when death does come. a shared grave. etc
