Ok so technically Summit won but i have no self control so u get Steppe Prowl as well, bc she has already has a ref from her debut >:3

Ice Fangs have both a given name and a surname, which are passed from mother to daughter and father to son (trans individuals can decide which parent they prefer to take after, or which children are given theirs, ie: Summit took his father's) This will be explained in comic too but it's not a spoiler so i have decided you are allowed to know as part of the teaser cx

Important: No, these two having refs does not mean they will inherently be joining the Kindred! As you can imagine that would cause quite a stir XD

Enjoy this meme i made months ago while drawing Moon 6 X'D

I mentioned in my last reblog that as she escaped Hermaeus Mora with a dying Miraak in tow, Elentari burned a hole in Apocrypha—this supernova-like burst of bright silver light that scarred the Summit beyond repair as if a star had ripped right through it.

the Summit, and the Summit alone, becomes a strange place after that. in my 'verse, Apocrypha's corruption only begins to take hold once a person starts to lose hope of returning, which is why Miraak has held out for so long and has only fairly recently begun to see ink staining his skin, blackening his eyes, and sharpening his fingernails into claws. all seekers (once mortals, corrupted over the course of decades or centuries) who enter find themselves cleansed. they remember who they are; they regain their hope of escaping, and perhaps they even manage it, no matter how many years have passed since they left the world.

Mora hates it, but he'll never be able to return it to how it once was, only hide it and bury it like a best-kept secret...

Isn't it wonderful to read the manga and know that Kakashi served such a big role in the story.

Teaching Sasuke his Chidori which Sasuke ultimately took and made even stronger and extended into other styles of Chidori (like the Chidori stream)

Helping Naruto create his Rasenshuriken and teaching him to use his Shadow clones to improve his learning speed because Naruto may not learn particularly fast but he had the perfect fix for that and Kakashi made sure he knew that.

He was the strong leader and tactical mind of team seven even into the last fight, where he supported and protected his student and ultimately came up with the plan that allowed them to defeat Kaguya and seal her away.

being the one to turn his back to the rules any time his students needed him more because, at the end of the day, his precious people were more important to him than the village. (Going after Naruto and Sasuke in the Sasuke retrieval arc, taking Naruto to speak with A during the Kage summit)

being the one to ultimately pull Obito back to their side and work beside him against Madara (yes Naruto made Obito rethink himself and quit fighting, but it was Kakashi's words that got Obito back into the fight on their side)

supporting his friends in their fights (kamuing away a piece of Madara's truth seeker orb shield so Gai could get through him and give him that epic bone-shattering kick, protecting Ino-shika-cho from Kakuzu's lightning attack)

being the only reason that fans knew about or even cared about the big reveal of 'tobi'/'madara' because it was through his eyes that we learned about Uchiha Obito.

being the first Hokage since the creation of Konoha to make some genuine changes to konoha that improved it not just economically, but connected it to the other villages through trade agreements rather than reliance on alliances in case of war, as well as being the Hokage to make a 'no kill order' for shinobi so that they would take enemies prisoner and only kill if there was no other choice.

it's wonderful that Kakashi plays such a huge role in the story, even as a secondary main who should not be contributing as much as the three main characters

Probably a dumb ask but, are icefangs prehistoric cave bears? (Idk the proper name or term for them😔😔)

Nope, they're Smilodon fatalis!

If you're talking about Moon 7's silhouette's lack of saber teeth, may I direct you to this excellent summary of several papers? >:3

And (mild spoilers if you wanted to put things together on your own but)-

You should really look at this ref sheet quite closely...

Based on some of the comments on The Kintsugi Kid, and, I think, the surprise at the amount of denial and self-denial in it, here's a very brief and incomplete history of homosexuality in association football (soccer, we can call it soccer). I know the story is fiction but anyway, this is my rant into the void, basically.

Justin Fashanu was the first professional footballer to come out publicly and be openly gay in 1990. After coming out, he transferred clubs yearly, sometimes multiple times a year, until his suicide in 1998 amidst media allegations surrounding his sexuality. His brother continued to give interviews stating that Justin wasn't gay, but merely an attention seeker.

Unsurprisingly, the tragedy and hostility that struck his life after publicly coming out persuaded other gay footballers that coming out would not be a good idea. 

Some minor league players come in the early 2000s, mostly after their retirement, some during their active career - for example Messi (not the Messi) who's the first Brazilian football player to come out in 2010. After coming out, he transferred clubs yearly, sometimes multiple times a year. What a coincidence!

Also in the early 2000s, Luis Felipe Scolari (ex-Chelsea manager) goes on record to say he would have thrown out of the team a player whom he found to be gay. 

In 2005, former manager Alan Smith speaks of "the last taboo in football": "I've had players over the years who were single and read books and so others [other players] said they must be gay... I think being openly gay would be something very difficult to live with in football... You can get drunk and beat up your wife and that's quite acceptable, but if someone were to say 'I'm gay', it's considered awful. It's ridiculous."

Also in 2005, the Football Association held a summit aimed at tackling homophobia in football. In that same year, when the BBC asked all of the twenty Premiership managers their opinions on the issue as part of an investigation, all twenty refused.

Many heterosexual players are victims of homophobic abuse - both on and off the pitch, sometimes due to their "unladdish hobbies". Rio Ferdinand gets away with calling someone faggot live on air.

In 2010, Max Clifford says he would and has advised gay players to stay closeted: "It's a very sad state of affairs. But it's a fact that homophobia in football is as strong now as it was 10 years ago. If you'd asked me in 2000 whether I thought we'd have a famous, openly gay footballer by 2010 I would have said yes.

Robbie Rogers, an American football player, played for second-tier English football club Leeds united when he came out in 2013 - and announced his retirement almost in the same breath. He later returned from retirement to play for LA Galaxy, and become the first gay football player in the MLS. In 2013. He did play internationally for the United States, though was not called back for international games after his coming out. What a coincidence!

The first international player to come out as gay is Thomas Hitzlsperger who was a German national team player. He came out in 2014, one year after his retirement. During his active career, he had a long-term girlfriend.

So we're in 2014, and there's no openly gay football player in any major teams or with an international career. Most players who have come out since 2014 either came out after their retirement, or play for very very very minor leagues.

In June 2021, at the delayed UEFA Euro 2020 tournament, Germany national football team captain Manuel Neuer was investigated by UEFA for wearing a rainbow captain's armband and risked potential fines - they investigated it being a political statement.

The next major league player and first international player to come out whilst actively playing is Jakub Jankto, he came out in 2023 (yes, last year) and currently plays for a Series A team in Italy. He used to play for the Czech Republic but has not been called back for international games after coming out. What a coincidence!

In June 2022, it was revealed that homophobia made up the majority of online abuse aimed at footballers.
