Relative Vigor Index Explained

The Relative Vigor Index (RVI) is a momentum oscillator used in technical analysis to measure the strength of a trend. Developed by John Ehlers, the RVI is based on the concept that prices tend to close higher than they open in an uptrend and lower than they open in a downtrend. This article will delve into the RVI, explaining its calculation, interpretation, and how it can be effectively used in…

colored maudra seethi from this set of drawings, did you ever see a gelfling so beautiful you started crying

seethi headcanons under the cut :3

i imagine she inherited the maudra title young following her mother's death (she looks so young compared to the other maudras!) and, being a young gelfling surrounded by matriarchs, maybe struggled to integrate and get along with the other maudras for a while. she understood gelfling law in theory but in practice it doesn't come naturally to her, and the maudras being a sort of old ladies club didn't offer a lot of help at first.

probably she resolved this by withdrawing her personal feelings and emotions from her maudra "persona," she tries to be completely objective, plays by all the rules and waits for others to express their stances on a given matter before offering her own input. the other maudras opinions on this behavior range from annoyed to indulgent, most of them were there while she was struggling and they understand the need to separate their personal lives from the lives they lead as maudras.

gelfling autism

the shape of the dousan headdress is determined by how much hair it needs to hold--seethi has lots and lots and lots of hair, but she almost always wears it tied up or braided back to keep it off her neck in the desert heat.

the loss of her mother, which i imagine was unexpected and came at an already-fraught time in inter-clan relations/shifting skeksis policy/some other drama, had a profound effect on seethi that gelfling close to her recognized--the dousan perspective on death helped her rationalize and accept her mother's death, but she's never quite been able to move on.

the little hair charm at the end of her necklace is a lock of her mother's hair

whether in maudra-mode or not, seethi comes across like she's sort of floating through life, a bit detached from everything but still held down to thra by virtue of existing on it. she becomes more grounded in reality when a present situation or task demands her whole attention

related to above, she realizes she actually quite enjoys fighting during the outset of the garthim war, because unlike maudra work it's fast-paced, physical and decisive, and she doesn't have to worry about doing it "right" so much as just surviving to fight another way.

seethi lost a lot of her friends when she became maudra, unable to maintain relationships as the role demanded more and more of her time. :C

despite the kind of unwieldy shape seethi actually likes to wear the headdress because she thinks her ears are too big. when she wears it she has to trade big ears for a fivehead, but a big forehead is a feature of beauty among dousan (but not among stonewood, thats why they all have bangs)

since dousan aren't a part of the alliance of the crystal, seethi has only met the skeksis incidentally when some event necessitated both she and a skeksis ambassador attend. after maybe the third or fourth time this happens she decides to take a leaf out of maudra argots book and just sends a messenger with a no-show letter.

during aor seethi is the second oldest maudra, a little younger than mera (spriton maudra) and youngest of all being ethri (sifan maudra). mera became maudra not long after seethi, although at an older age, and adjusted pretty well to the position, so she and seethi get along well being closer in age than the other maudras. ethri became maudra under similar circumstances to seethi (sudden loss of a mother) so seethi and mera advise her where they can and do their best to make themselves welcoming presences for her. mera is better at this than seethi lol

related to above, this is why they all kind of cluster and make the same choice to support seladon when fara issues her challenge for the crown.

in his and davrin's banters, lucanis exhibits a certain little shit energy I don't think we see him have with anyone else other than illario and honestly I am living for this

[sukibenders]

Anthony doesn't get enough flack from this fandom if I'm being honest, like most of it is pushed onto other female characters while he gets the "he was struggling," excuse. And while he was struggling, there's definitely validity to that, he also should not have his actions (eg. playing with Kate's feelings, putting her and Edwina in a difficult situation, etc) excused because of that.

The bat family handing out little distress signal tokens to any civilians they save, just in case they run into stuff even they cant handle (because we all know Gothamites are just like that and theres very little they cant handle) and it goes so well. The Bats have always been beloved by their Gothamites, but with these new little alert signals, their popularity skyrockets. Batmans promise to protect and defend those who cannot protect themselves is finally believed after years of slaving away on Bruce’s part to convince them, and the amount of little trinkets that the people of Gotham leave out as thanks to their protectors triples. It especially helps that the Bats start wearing little key chains on their belts, with all their favorite gifts attached to them. Then one night, all of the sensors go off at once. Bruce is frantic, calling Dick in from Bludhaven,(the oldest Bat also helps out in Gotham when he can, but he was in Bludhaven for the week) and recruiting Jason and even asking some of the League to be on standby. But when they all arrive, every single Batfamily member, there are no innocent civilians in sight. Instead, there are notes. Letters and thank you notes, old/lost/discarded batarangs with fresh coats, or sharpened edges, or bedazzled and designed, heaps of food, small storable snacks, and most of all, a spray painted bat-symbol in every location where the sensors went off. Gothamites might not be able to protect the world, but they would certainly show their support and love and appreciation to those who defended theirs.

Duke is Bruce's favourite Robin solely bc of that kick in the face of Hal Jordan.

He's protective of the cave, what can he say.

[onlyifyoubadd]

I'm a poor disabled black afab trans nigga who is gay married to an immigrant, can't get a leg up because of debt, and works as a peer supporter trying to change the fucked up mental health system.

our existence is resistance. YES!

its also true that people have died and will continue to die at alarming rates from police brutality, lack of health care, being unhoused, contaminated food and water, climate change catastrophes, war, genocide, and suicide.

so its okay to focus on taking care of yourself and your mental health! its okay to feel all the anger, fear, sadness, grief, and dread that comes up. reach out if you're able to, and know you are not alone.

Sending the most love and care imaginable!

[breadandblankets]

duke thru some combo of X-ray vision and just being straight up magic can see people's facial expressions even in face covering helmets/masks

people might find it disconcerting to work with say Cass, Jason, Steph, Luke Etc, but Duke finds it as natural as having a conversation barefaced

(the funniest way this would work is if he sees their faces superimposed onto their masks like we as comic readers see it)

the kids are (not) alright.

full view + commentary under the cut:

from l to r: tristan / cei / percy / kvornan & kiernan

the finished lineup of the wormwood siblings after many hours of manic brainstorming, so here's a short description of each:

tristan wormwood (24):

the eldest of the wormwood brood, tristan was, for a lack of better words, an oops baby. while he was very bright and believed to be on the path of academic success, he was a quiet and unassuming child. tristan was very protective of his younger siblings and was prone to put their needs before his, taking his duty as the older brother and hector's helper seriously. after being traumatically separated from their parents and facing a bleak reality without them, the teenaged tristan couldn't take the pressure of being a caregiver for his siblings, so he coped by withdrawing from everyone. his grades dropped severely, and he eventually stopped going to school, instead staying locked in his room for the next 5 years. now as a young adult, tristan has a tendency to wander around or stay inside his aunt's residence, and his relationship with his siblings continue to be strained, especially with cei and percy, who take their respective anger and frustration out on him. he has an on-again, off-again romantic relationship with a girl named ysolt. tristan took after his mother elaine and her fear of commitment, so it doesn't come to a surprise that he would flake out every now and again. fun facts: 1. at 6'4, tristan is both the tallest sibling and tallest relative of the wormwood clan 2. as the firstborn son, he is the first (but not the last) male descendant of the 300-year-old matrilineal family tree 3. tristan is the Denial stage of the five stages of grief 4. tristan strongly resembles elaine, so he avoids mirrors

cei wormwood (23):

the second son of the wormwood brood, cei (pronounced as 'kay') was born in the same calendar year as tristan with the intention being that tristan wouldn't be alone and have a sibling to play with. the opposite of tristan personality-wise, cei was an energetic, boisterous, and mischievous child who often cried for elaine to come home. because he was so close in age to tristan, the two brothers were thick as thieves for the years before their younger siblings' arrivals. he always followed after tristan and relied on his instructions, even if cei would break them. left adrift after the family was torn apart, cei was lost and confused. with tristan no longer involving himself with the siblings, cei's anchor he relied heavily on was gone. for the 5 years during tristan's self-isolation, cei was no longer a happy-go-lucky boy, but instead he was full of resentment and grief, and so he had to step up to the plate to be his siblings' caregiver. cei grew up angry at the world, and that anger would be misdirected to his siblings. but everyone knew the people he was angry at the most were his parents. now as an adult, cei is a student of the studium's faculty of medicine department on the behest of his aunt, at the same time working his way through school by taking night shifts at the last stand. cei is focused on creating the perfect mix of good food and good nutrition, not just for the betterment of sharlayan society, but also wanting to capture the warm and nostalgic feelings of his mother's home-cooked meals so he and his siblings could come together and enjoy dinners like they used to. fun facts: 1. cei is the only one with brown eyes, a feature he inherited from elaine 2. cei is the only one who can cook among the siblings, based on his years of being raised by their grandmother and her 'terrible' food. he often prepares their meals and takes into account what they like or don't like 3. cei was the most affected by tristan's withdrawal from the siblings, and he likes to throw hurtful comments and insults to his brother whenever he comes around, which tends to lead to arguments between the two 4. cei is the Anger of the five stages of grief

percival wormwood (19):

the only daughter and middle child of the brood, percy was originally believed to be a boy before their birth by elaine, but hector named them percival because he liked the name so much he couldn't imagine calling them anything else. stuck between 4 brothers, percy struggled to fit in, and as a result, became more of a tomboy to not feel left out. percy was extremely close to hector as a child, often being called his shadow for how often they would cling to him, perhaps in a childlike attempt to receive more attention. despite what their brothers may feel, percy carries the most guilt over what they believe caused the fall of the family, with the physical scar to prove it. for most of their teenage years, percy was used as a scapegoat for familial disagreements, their pity, and their brothers' constant fighting, and at 19 years old, percy wants nothing more to do with them, even if it means risking splitting the fractured unit further apart. as of now, percy is at a loss of what to do next. having no love for school, percy seems to be heading in the same direction as their brother tristan, something their great-aunts seem loathe to admit out loud. after being a mediator for their older brothers for most of their young life, percy wants out. fun facts: 1. percy is the only sibling with green eyes, a recessive trait from their mother's side. they resemble hector more than the others 2. percy is the Bargaining of the five stages of grief 3. percy is the only sibling that has an innate ability for magecraft, a talent carried by the wormwood clan for generations, but they never pursued learning more beyond simple parlor tricks 4. percy's nose scar is the result of hector's mental breakdown caused by halmarut's corruption (something the siblings did not know at the time), after he lashed out at them with a knife

kvornan & kiernan wormwood (16):

with their arrival being a bit of a surprise in the midst of hector and elaine's relationship troubles, the twins are the last of the wormwood brood, with kvornan being 4 minutes older than kiernan. while they were too young to remember the troubled times of the family unit, the boys carry some measure of guilt in their own ways. kvornan tries to keep his siblings together as best as he can, while kiernan keeps himself at a distance. regardless, the twins have a decent relationship with cei and percy, the four of them being closer than their eldest brother tristan. they have vague memories of their parents, and while their older siblings envy this fact, the twins envy them in turn for having the opportunity to know their parents better than them, as they usually have nothing to add whenever cei and percy discuss the more happier times. currently, kvornan is excelling in school, but kiernan tends to fall behind his more studious twin in favor of daydreaming. they now live with their brother cei in his apartment in sharlayan, but they don't need any supervision as they learned to be independent early in life. fun facts: 1. elaine wasn't there when the twins were born, so their names are different from their siblings. their names come from the wormwood clan's amdapori heritage 2. kvornan and kiernan's grief stages are flipped: kvornan is Acceptance despite being the 4th child, and kiernan is Depression despite being the last born 3. kiernan is prone to periods of selective mutism, so kvornan often has to talk for him 4. the twins are both 5'6, but are projected to grow taller than tristan in a few years

The blood on your hands, little jackal, will haunt you for days on end.

The whispers of her voice on the wind, little jackal, will stalk until you see her again.

Different faces, different lives yet all the same- live or die. She fought for smiles with a bloodied blade If she had been different, would the result be the same?

Do you miss your little sister, little jackal? Wish it were you in her shoes?

How many deaths would you take, little jackal, Simply to keep the voices at bay?

Different memories, changing times Leave each past reset behind Chimera curled up there, quiet beside He never dares to ask why you lay there and cry

So lay down here, little jackal The sun will rise anew

and one day, maybe, she will rise too.
