#Sampson's Stone

Resting after a job well done? by National Library of Ireland on The Commons Via Flickr: When you can fill a gap in one fell swoop, why not take the opportunity? Mr. Sampson of Downpatrick, while building a drystone wall, pulled this rock out of the ground and filled a great big gap, saving him a whole lot of digging and lifting!! Well, he probably built the wall up on either side of the rock and used it in situ, but now he can rest after his labours!

It’s done. I CAN FINALLY BE EUTHANIZED!!!!

I said in that one long text post that I would draw something based around a specific event. This is that. Also so so sorry if you read the whole thing.

Believe it or not I did most of this today. I think somewhere recently I suffered a traumatic brain injury that makes me draw weird shit.

ANYWAYS

@lesbiansupavillain thanks for signing the unbreakable“rexbalistidae can use any of your cosplays in drawings” contract. You will never regret it.

@autistic-haven I have no reason to be tagging you but I am. You started it.

This will be a detrimental nuclear bomb to my tumblr page.

📖 PREVIOUS CHAPTER | START HERE | ToC (under construction!)

UNDER THE CUT creator’s commentary, ancient citations, whatever else seems relevant. ideally, this is optional! you shouldn’t need the citations for it to make sense as it unfolds since it’s a comic and a story first and foremost, but it’s here if you’re curious about something or want to see where the inspiration is coming from!

I'm so fucking normal about Crassus and his family (<<< this is a lie)

Marcus Crassus was the son of a man who had been censor and had enjoyed a triumph; but he was reared in a small house with two brothers. His brothers were married while their parents were still alive, and all shared the same table, which seems to have been the chief reason why Crassus was temperate and moderate in his manner of life. When one of his brothers died, Crassus took the widow to wife, and had his children by her, and in these relations also he lived as well-ordered a life as any Roman.

Plutarch, Crassus

like, it actively fucks me up that this is something that's survived about him for over 2,000 years. they all ate together at the same table. Jesus Christ.

so! Crassus' dad! Publius Licinius Crassus (consul 97) fought on the side of Cn. Octavius (consul 87) in the Bellum Octavianum, and it didn't go great for him.

Crassus: A Political Biography, B.A. Marshall

also. currently, if you look Publius Licinius Crassus up on wikipedia for an overview, his page lists his son (and also my main character for this comic) with the cognomen Dives, which is in-fucking-correct.

Marcus Crassus and the Late Roman Republic, Allen Mason Ward

and to circle back to houses and meals shared with family, some citations that made me feel some kind of way when I read them

Marcus Crassus and the Late Roman Republic, Allen Mason Ward

finally, there is discourse or whatever on the placement of the sons of Publius Licinius Crassus. Crassus is the baby brother here simply because I'm writing this story and I get to pick the themes, but also because no one has provided a solid enough argument for him being the second eldest son that I'm willing to buy into with enthusiasm, and I'm more inclined towards G. Sampson's conclusion on the matter.

Thu, Apr 11, 2024 (2 a.m.)

When Paige Overton sang with the cowpunk quartet The Clydesdale, she performed at Brooklyn Bowl and during the Neon Reverb fest, and seemingly every other local venue and event. She has played her share of stages, but few compare to the setup of Blake Shelton’s new country bar and restaurant Ole Red.

“This is definitely different from anything I’ve experienced in this town,” says Overton, who fronts outlaw country band Paige and the Overtones and duo Opal and Turq. “I feel like we’re all kids again. It’s this new, buzzy, fun place and there’s a lot of camaraderie there.”

Overton is one of several local musicians who’ve been invited to play the Strip venue, and the feedback has been resoundingly positive. From the professionally staffed sound and lighting teams to the sprawling stage and lightning-fast stage breakdowns, she regards Ole Red as a true concert venue.

This new, high-profile home for live performance at the heart of the Strip should impact the local country music community, which, despite the popularity of the genre, only plays in a few local venues. Stoney’s Rockin’ Country at Town Square, Gilley’s at Treasure Island and Losers Bar at MGM Grand are among Vegas’ most prominent country bars and lounges.

“I don’t even know if it’s the lack of country bands, but sometimes I think it’s the lack of places that they fit,” Overton says. “I know bands that there’s only a few and far places that really embrace [country] so they have to drive all the way out to Pioneer Saloon to play, or the LeDoux that’s all the way over by Lake Las Vegas.

“I think it may encourage people to step out a little bit, but also it’s a breath of fresh air for people who already play this type of music and have their own little spot in the sun now.”

Ole Red senior talent buyer Marc Feldman says that’s precisely what this venue has set out to do here.

“We’re really giving the opportunity to plant a flag and give country music a home, and give some of the folks who live here, who truly are authentically country, a place to shine,” he says.

A big part of that has been encouraging musicians to play original music rather than what may be popular with Strip crowds. To Feldman, Ole Red is “the proudest stepping stone anyone could have in their career,” and artists are taking that seriously.

Local musician Zach Ryan, who spent eight years in Nashville before returning to Vegas, can attest to that. He often performs his twangy brand of ’60s and ’90s country at Ole Red.

“They treat you there like you’re the talent,” says Ryan. “Some places I’ve played, they’re herding me around and don’t give any breaks. In Nashville, we played about three hours and 45 minutes with no breaks, so someone would have to jump on the drums, which was usually me, while the drummer went to the bathroom.”

Transitioning from the shotgun bars of Nashville to Ole Red has been a “real treat,” he says. “A place like that is a place where you can come as a casual music country fan or a real country fan. It felt a step above Nashville.”

Ryan views Ole Red’s arrival as a sign of the times. He points to Beyoncé releasing Cowboy Carter—“Country music is becoming relevant again, and it’s not your grandpa’s music anymore,” he says. “It’s something young people identify with because so much of it just is talking about everyday problems.”

It’s also incredibly versatile. At Ole Red, Overton can lay on the Waylon Jennings and the Loretta Lynn.

“Sometimes if I’m feeling crazy I’ll even do ‘Stand By Your Man’ from Tammy Wynette, which is sometimes a show suicide because it’s slow, but I don’t give a sh*t,” she says. “It’s fun, and people are usually really into it.

“I hope we see this as a step in the right direction to really embrace more of our musicians in this town,” Overton says. “Let’s get the people paid to play and let them do what they love.”

Chapter 3: The Parish of Patrinis

Aine's lady's maid, Braelyn, has many complaints come morning. All of which go through one indisposed ear and out the other. Aine glares into the mirror as if her reflection is her sworn enemy, whilst Braelyn flaps around her. 

"Lady Sampson, I wish you would care more for your hair. It is ever so knotty. It is such a beautiful colour. If I had hair as beautiful as yours, I would do everything to ensure it was well-kept." Braelyn compliments, but Aine sees it for what it is: a chide. Stop horse riding, archery and sword fighting as they are not lady-like. And they make her hair harder to brush.

What am I supposed to do? I am defending both you and this entire realm! I would sacrifice a few knots to ensure Nocriam is protected. Aine bites her tongue before these thoughts leave her lips, knowing Braelyn is only trying to do her job. Besides, after partaking in all three activities subsequent to finding out who had called the Parish of Patrinis yesterday, Braelyn had to somehow transform a tired mess of a girl into a lady. 

She is doing a good job. Aine's red hair cascades down her shoulders in smooth waves that reach the small of her back. The front sections of hair are expertly twisted to meet at the crown of her head, elegantly framing a gold mistletoe-shaped tiara. Aine is jolted out of her stupor when Braelyn attempts to attach an emerald necklace around her neck.

"What is this?!" Aine demands, swerving out of the maid's way the best she can in her heavy attire. Emeralds. Never emeralds.

"A-accessories, my lady. They match your eyes perfectly. I'm sorry, is it not to your liking?" Braelyn looks confounded, genuine confusion lacing her features and tone. 

Aine lets out a shaky breath. "We never use emeralds, Braelyn. They are Vulstis's stone. Use something white or gold." 

The realisation sinks in, and Braelyn immediately disposes of the emerald jewellery, fishing around for some pearls instead. 

"I do apologise. I just wanted to accentuate your eyes. They are so much like-"

"My mother's?" Aine finishes the sentence, having heard the sentiment many times before from her father, "I know. Now, Braelyn, explain to me how I am supposed to move in this thing." 

Aine motions to the multi-layered, embroidered gold dress she had been wrestled into with its corseted waist, excessively long train, flared sleeves that reach the floor, and white fur trimmings that are likely to match with her father. What she detests most is that the corset pushes her bosom far too much into the public eye, and the pearl necklace Braelyn added does not help disguise this. She is just thanking the Sun God that she is not being forced to wear heeled slippers.

Aine and Braelyn exchange a playful smirk, knowing any tension about emerald necklaces is long gone. 

"Well..."

✼　 ҉ 　✼　 ҉ 　✼　 ҉ 　✼　 ҉ 　✼　 ҉ 　✼

Unfortunately for Aine and King Caylus, the Kingdom of Vulstis's party is the first to arrive for the Parish of Patrinis. Although all the kingdoms border Nocriam for easy passage to the Hall of Witnesses, Vulstis Keep is still the closest. Considering King Min Yoongi called the Parish of Patrinis, it would be doubtful he would be late. 

"His royal majesty, King Min Yoongi of Kingdom Vulstis." proclaims King Caylus's usher as the guards swing open the grand entrance doors to the Hall of Witnesses and reveal a sea of black and gold. The sight is familiar yet dangerous to Aine. 

Bannermen proudly march the sigil of the fox into the room, closely flanked by armed soldiers who stand vigil as their king sweeps haughtily over the threshold: his most trusted advisor, Mr Hwang, a few paces behind him. 

King Caylus and Aine receive their guest through gritted teeth. 

"King Min." King Caylus greets, taking him by the hand. 

"Your Grace." Aine acknowledges, curtseying before the man she hates most. 

He surveys the both of them, dark eyes lingering on Aine but never divulging anything more than that: looks. His skin is as pale as the marble behind him, and if he did not have a grotesque scar over his right eye, Aine would have mistaken him for a statue. He certainly acts as such: cold and unfeeling with eyes like two black holes- you would perish before you found any life in there. 

Mr Hwang, however, offers a smile that is almost as bright as the room. Keyword: almost. Aine notices that the smile doesn't reach his eyes, making her feel uneasy as the cold king's advisor gleams down at her. 

"Caylus." King Min finally addresses, solemn, uninterested. 

Rude, thinks Aine, he's a king. Oh, how she wishes she could swap this ridiculously constricting dress for her bow and arrow right now.

"Yoongi." King Caylus politely claps back, an irked smile playing on his lips.

King Min is completely unfazed by this and glides past King Caylus and Aine towards his wooden throne beneath the marble fox, Mr Hwang tottering off after him like a loyal dog. Aine and her father exchange displeased looks and prepare to greet three more parties, none of which they are particularly fond of. 

King Jungkook of Belltoria acts like an arrogant child wearing a grown man's armour, putting on a show of swordsmanship in an attempt to put King Caylus 'in his place'. Aine is sure one duel with him would cut his ego down to size.  

King Seokjin of Nalentus is boastful and unserious, cracking the most awful jokes at Nocriam and Vulstis's expense, showing both his ignorance and terrible sense of humour. His step-brothers' encouraging laughter only enrages Aine more, knowing how intelligent High Prince Namjoon is. Aine wonders if King Seokjin would be making the same jokes if Vulstis declared war on Nalentus instead and their precious crops began dying. 

King Jimin of Verectias is as elusive as ever. He ignores everyone and makes an immediate beeline for his wooden throne as if this whole event is beneath him. Infuriating. 

Aine breathes a sigh of relief once she finally takes a seat, registering too late that the man beside her is Grand Duke Taehyung of Nalentus—a renowned flirt who shares the same boastful tendencies as his older brother, King Seokjin. Whilst trying to subtly angle herself away from the man to avoid engaging with him, someone else enthusiastically plops themselves down next to her. Aine recognises that darned smile- Advisor Hwang. 

She can't blank him; she's practically facing him due to her Grand Duke evasion tactics. Because the man is, for some reason, still smiling widely, Aine offers her best grimace in response. 

"Lady Sampson, I must say, you are looking absolutely radiant today." he accolades, bowing his head in appreciation. 

"Thank you, Advisor Hwang." Aine replies stiffly. This is weird. Why is he being so nice, especially when his king called this Parish? Her eyes dance over the five men on their thrones, willing her father to stand and commence the Parish as quickly as possible. 

"Yes, I am rather impressed. From what I have heard, Lady Sampson, you are usually covered in dirt and mud like some peasant girl. And for what? Arrows and a sword?" It takes no genius to guess who threatened Aine's hot temper with such a wisecrack. 

Aine narrows her eyes, hoping her father can feel her gaze on him. Not even bothering to glance at the Grand Duke, she states calmly, "I was led to believe people in Nalentus love the dirt and mud, Your Grace. It is, after all, where Patrinis's precious crops grow from. Your use of it as an insult tells me you lack the skills needed in both Nalentus and the warfare here in Nocriam." 

This is met with a mocking chuckle from behind, which Aine deduces can only be one of King Jungkook's subordinates. Grand Duke Taehyung cowers into silence, not daring to fan the flames further. 

"My good people!" King Caylus bellows, his voice carrying to all corners of the hall as he stands to address everyone, "Thank you all for gathering here today. King Min Yoongi of the Vulstis Kingdom has summoned us here as a matter of utmost importance. By the God of the Sun and the God of the Moon, we shall hear what he has to say with candour and benignity." 

King Caylus extends a hand to the chair in the centre, atop the floor painting of the Sun and Moon Gods. All eyes follow the King of Vulstis as he rises from his wooden throne and coasts towards the speaker's chair, the black robes billowing behind him starkly contrasting with the white marble. He is like a haunting shadow. His long, silky, platinum blonde hair flows freely behind him, creating an unsettling contradiction to the steely expression on his face and the exceptionally pointy gold and emerald crown atop his head. 

Finally, Aine hears the subject of her loathing speak more than a sentence. She compares his voice to the rumbling of thunder. It is low and grumbly yet commands attention without needing to yell. 

"Preacher Nocriam and his holy kingdom have taught us for many years that there are only two Gods: The God of the Sun and The God of the Moon," he begins, "however, I am led to believe there is another God living among us. Benefiting Nocriam's newest ruler, Caylus Sampson." 

This declaration is met with a chorus of gasps and murmurs. This man dares to come to the holy kingdom and challenge the religion, its king, and its history.

"I am certain I do not know what you mean, King Min." King Caylus comments, followed by a chortle from King Seokjin, who observes the King of Vulstis as if he has gone insane. 

"You would deny it when you are disguising the Goddess of the Land as your daughter, wouldn't you?" King Min challenges calmly, his long, veiny finger pointing out Aine in the crowd. 

What? Goddess of what? Aine furrows her eyebrows, her lips forming a scowl. Is this all a political ploy to defame the Sampson name so that Nocriam falls?

"King Min, what is this nonsense?" King Jungkook spits from a lounged position on his wooden throne. He looks bored, fed up, ready to be anywhere but here.  

"King Caylus has been harbouring the Celtic Goddess of the Land, Aine, as an advantage over Vulstis. Aine's powers allow whichever land she favours to flourish and the ones she does not to feel her wrath." King Min Yoongi rolls up one of his sleeves to unveil a recognisable scar. Two months ago, Aine had caught him off-guard during battle and sliced the skin off his forearm with her sword. Eyes widen, some cover their mouths and court ladies gag at the sight before the king finally readjusts his sleeve. "If that were not enough evidence for you all, she looks exactly as the legends describe. Hair as red as flame and eyes as green as the emeralds I wear on my head. They even have the same name. Who else in Nocriam looks this way? Her father certainly does not." 

Aine's eyes dart desperately around the hall as the murmurs and whispers become louder and more intense. King Min seems to successfully be riling everyone up. Are they buying into this? The people Aine fights tooth and nail to protect day in and day out, and they believe the enemy because it is an exciting piece of gossip. The God of the Moon sure is working his magic. 

"Skill with a bow and arrow and a sword is completely different to having divine powers!" Aine's father reasons, but to no avail. All watch the red-haired girl as she rises from her seat, staring down the King of Vulstis with wild eyes. 

"Let's test that, then. Have her live in Vulstis for a period of time and see if you still have your military prowess." the cold king states simply, dark eyes flitting to each of the three other kings for their verdict since Nocriam's answer would obviously be no.

As King Caylus, the largest and strongest man of the five, pleads with watery eyes for the safety of his only child, he is met with an aloof silence. When Aine hears King Jungkook's spiteful snigger at her father's predicament, she knows her fate. None of these outlying kings care about the conflict between Nocriam and Vulstis in the first place, so what does it matter if Aine Sampson has to live in Vusltis instead of Nocriam? It's all part of a war they have nothing to do with. King Min's stone-like nature and his advisor's persistent smile adds up in Aine's mind: they knew the other kingdoms' lack of concern about this matter would amount to their agreement with Vulstis on this matter and there would be nothing Nocriam could do about it. No one can go against the ruling of the Parish of Patrinis. After this morbid realisation, Aine runs. Like hell is she going back to live in that dark, insipid kingdom. 

"Seize her." King Min sighs, unamused but unsurprised that Aine is not coming quietly.

Aine tries to run, she really does, but her heavy dress combined with Advisor Hwang latching onto her as soon as she attempts to, results in her being captured by the guards of Vulstis. King Caylus is chomping at the bit to get to his daughter's aid, but a mixture of guards from different kingdoms hold him back. The ruling of the Parish of Patrinis does not stop him from hollering after Aine like a wild boar. Aine screams back with the same ferocity. 

Aine would be more frightened of the men restraining her if she did not glance at King Min Yoongi's face. He no longer looks like an expressionless statue but something much more sinister. He is wearing a cruel smirk on his lips.

Aine does not like that. She does not like that at all. 

✼　 ҉ 　✼　 ҉ 　✼　 ҉ 　✼　 ҉ 　✼　 ҉ 　✼

A/N: The Hall of Witnesses and the Parish of Patrinis may be a place and meeting of neutrality, but neutrality does not always equal peace. Especially not when the Kings making the final verdict don't care about issues that do not affect them or their kingdoms personally.

Wow, this was a long one. (For me, anyway, as this is something I am doing for fun alongside work!) I hope you enjoyed it! 

I wonder why Yoongi has been reading about Celtic Gods and Goddesses? 🤔

Which King do you think is the best at ruling? Who do think is the worst? Let me know!

Rex balistidae EXECUTION April 20th 8 am EST. Be there on time.

Sneaking out of a board meeting to make out with ur coworker for about five minutes until you have to pull your dumbass lizard out of a vending machine (a common occurrence)

@autistic-haven cannot remember what you said but this is COMPLETELY and UTTERLY your fault

@lesbiansupavillain idk it’s probably your fault too

[auspex]

🙈🌎🎤👖(lol)☄️

i love it when i know the person asking already has an idea of the answer but its Fun to answer so its sent On Purpose :D

-

🙈 SEE-NO-EVIL - whats a side of your oc that they don't want to show other people?

Both before and after embrace: His romantic side . Teehee. That's a short answer so lemme expand: He really is romantic and believes in true love and stuff but that goes against his Professor Persona and is not Cool so unless u actually are that person who is romantically into, u aint gonna waterboard this one out of him.

After embrace: He doesn't want to show his sympathy for ghouls to most, out of fear they would start questioning him about his own. He's a bit more open about some of his other kindness but NOT that.

-

🌏 EARTH - will they give up the world for someone they love? is this decision easy for them?

This feels like an autistic-ass answer but... it depends. If it's someone he loves romantically and who he believes is his soul mate, he would, and it would be an easy decision. But this hasn't happened since he's become an adult.

For other people he loves deeply: The whole world? It would be a very hard decision. I think he would do it for Sampson. And that's it, at the moment. And after Sampson exits his life and/or dies, it would be very rare for someone else to get to that level.

For those who Know: I think JP would get to this level, whether or not Mark ends up being with him romantically. But that won't happen for awhile.

-

🎤 MICROPHONE - are they good at singing? what is their go-to karaoke song?

Fuck no he's not good at singing.

He would sing "Waiting on a Friend" by the Rolling Stones if he had to sing karaoke in public. Read the lyrics. It's funny cause he's gay.

He wouldn't be good at it though.

-

👖 JEANS - what is their go-to outfit?

if weather permits? Brown Slacks. White Undershirt. Sweater Vest.

He got cursed to wear this often because ppl kept drawing him in this so the ST made it canon that he wears it all the time. And then i Expanded it to make it his Autistic Go-To Outfit.

☄️ COMET - what do people assume about them? are they right?

-That he's a nerd: Yes -That he is a neonate: yes in the sense he is independent from his sire, but certainly not in age. He seems older due to his sire making him Politically Safe but he's a baby. -That he has Many Secrets: Yeah but not the type they think for sure -That he has someone powerful protecting him: Yeah <3

There are prob other things that I'm not myself aware of cause im bad at recognizing such things but... those are some!

Had to create a cento, or a poem made of lines from other poems. This is what I made. There's a lot of tabbing so I reflected this in the alt text by adding [tab] for each tab of spacing. Please let me know if there's a better way to reflect the spacing in the alt text. Sources listed under the cut

Good evening Europe!

It's that magical time of the year again when we all come together to trash each others' musical tastes!

The point system has changed many times over the years, and as various countries have come and gone, it is hard to determine who did "the best" based on the points they got alone as, since the maximum available points doubled with the jury and televote scores no longer being combined, post 2016 entries would have an obvious advantage and, likewise, the contests with 40+ participants would also have more maximum available points to give so a country getting 200 points in 2004 is not the same as another getting 200 points in 2009 or 2016.

But if we divide the points each entry got by the maximum available points for the respective year it competed, we get a percentage score that can easily be measured against entries from years with differing point systems.

So, for example, in 2009 42 countries participated. The maximum points each country can award is of course 12 and you can't vote for yourself. So 41 × 12 = 492. Let's then take Norway's total of 387 points and divide it by the 492 total of maximum available points. We get 78.6, meaning Norway and Alexander Rybak amassed 78.6% of the total points in 2009!

In the case of tie breaks the entry that placed higher in its respective year wins the tie break and if there's still a tie I used rules similar to the actual contest; the winner of a tie is the entry that received more points from televoting. If there are no split results available to the public, the entry that received points from more countries, then the country that received more 12 points, then 10 points all the way down to 1. If the tie cannot be broken in this way, the entry that performed earlier wins the tie break.

I've set 2004 as the "beginning of time", if you will, because that's when I started watching Eurovision and because there also had to be some sort of limit to how far back I would go with this 🤣

With that very long-winded explanation of my measuring tactics out of the way, shall we see our current Top 100 before new entries are added after the 2023 Grand Final is over?
