#Twinsouled

[stillareakid]

what makes anti aang takes so egregious is that they insist katara stole Kataras hope/ her drive when he was HER HOPE her wide eye wonder .. all ignited meeting aang. anti aang takes feel so wrong becaues they're about him stealing her joy when he brought her joy to a joyless world.

.. Aang is the Hope of the show . Katara is the Heart.

have you read The Lost Metal yet? would you consider doing Twinsoul for an Inktober?

I have and I did. :D

27 - spores 

Since Prasanva or Twinsoul kind of fit the inktober prompt, so yeah, why not? This here obviously took some inspiration from @botanica_xu s version of him. He is a lovely and pleasant character.  His tea cup ended up looking a bit like Tress‘ ones and from that the story was spun of Hoid at a paint your ceramic thing shop, making a series of cups to present random nice people in the cosmere. And how he probably gave that to someone in the Ghostbloods because he suspected it would piss their leader off, if he knew it was a present from him. 😄 maybe there’s a cup in for every colour. I wonder who has the others.

-------------------- image description:

Charakter sketch for Prasanva or Twinsoul from the waist up, depicting him as a small, old, wiry man, with brown skin and a fluffy white beard around his mouth and chin. He as a receding hairline, but here are still, a short mane of wavy, white hair wafting of the back of his head. He wears a dress shirt, neck tied with a yellow ascot, under an orange vest with a paisley pattern. A long necklace of pink stone beads hangs around his neck. In one hand he olds a tea cup with a small pink butterfly over a pinke ocean waves. The other he holds up over his head, long, rose colored crystals jutting from his thumb and index finger holding a tiny ball of metal between them. He critically gazes at that ball through specs made form the same crystal, which have formed on his face, crystalline vines leading like veins up to the construct glasses.

Tell me about the latest AU you've got rotating around your head 🥺🥺🥺🥺 RIGHT NOW. RIIIIGHT NOW. AGOIRHHGREHORHIW GHOR GHIW 😘

I call it "Twin Souls Au" and it's mostly an exercise.

Chinese mythology has this persons called Wu (巫) which were shamans. By the late Zhou dynasty, Wu referred mostly to female shamans, while Xi refers to male ones. But for this Au I take Wu to mean a gender-neutral Shaman. As it says in the Shang oracular inscriptions:

whether the Wu is a man or a woman is not known;

it could be either the name for a function or the name of a people (or an individual) coming from a definite territory or nation;

the Wu seems to have been in charge of some divinations, (in one instance, divination is linked to a sacrifice of appeasement);

the Wu is seen as offering a sacrifice of appeasement but the inscription and the fact that this kind of sacrifice was offered by other persons (the king included) suggests that the Wu was not the person of choice to conduct all the sacrifices of appeasement;

there is only one inscription where a direct link between the king and the Wu appears. Nevertheless, the nature of the link is not known, because the status of the Wu does not appear clearly;

he follows (being brought, presumably, to Shang territory or court) the orders of other people; he is perhaps offered to the Shang as a tribute.

And yes, I copied that from Wikipedia. Another one:

"men and women possessed by spirits or gods, and consequently acting as seers and soothsayers, exorcists and physicians; invokers or conjurers bringing down gods at sacrifices, and performing other sacerdotal functions, occasionally indulging also in imprecation, and in sorcery with the help of spirits." - The Religious System of China (vol 6) 1910

It's more complicated than that but Wu are basically the jack of all trades of chinese magicians.

What I focused on are two specific Wu:

The sacrifice

They are people, usually women and disabled people, who were burned at the stake to bring about rain. They themselves are an offering to the gods. CofCofShenJiuCofCof. They are also mediums for the spirit world.

Fangxiangshi

He is referred to as "The one that sees in all four directions" and wears a mask of bearskin with four golden eyes, and carried a lance and shield.

His primary duties were orchestrating the seasonal ritual to chase out disease-causing demons from buildings, and leading a funeral procession to exorcize corpse-eating wangliang spirits away from a burial chamber. Which he did by violently getting into buildings, houses included, and energetically thrusting his spear into the air.

He is a seer, and one that can conjure visions only he can see. Like a certain nerd who read the "book of fates for PIDW"

Wu were often a pair of siblings that are referred to as a single entity. Like two souls in a single body.

To the actual story:

The day of the transmigration, just as SY's soul is getting settled into SJ's body, a pair of heavenly officials (unimportant who) comes to get them for some important thing they have to do in heaven (Because more often than not, one is born a Wu), as Wu are also bureaucrats.

Man is Yue Qingyuan confused. He was there taking care of his ailed shidi and suddenly someone comes and takes him away before he can say anything. He naturally calls for a meeting and all peak lord are on the case to get him back (some more reluctantly than others)

The Ku Xing Peak Lord or whoever is in charge of rituals and divination gets them permission to go get SQQ (As they already did the thing they had to do), but only YQY and LQG are allowed. So they go.

In the heavenly realm (Not heaven outright) they see SQQ siting calmly in a gazebo on the garden, reading. More relaxed than anyone has even seen him.

SQQ sees them and, without letting them speak, says: "I'm not dealing with this"

And he separates from the body.

The body (SQQ) is let in a sleep like state while a tiny, tiny, Shen Jiu comes out of it. He looks perhaps 10, wearing ceremonial robes that only reach his knees. Shen Jiu takes his book and screams for "A-Yuan" to come take his turn.

Then, another 10 y.o. comes out of the house the garden belongs to and immediately protest upon seeing the adult cultivators. He is identical to Shen Jiu, dressed the same, but wears short hair (angled bob) and has a mask winkwink hanging from his neck.

This A-Yuan and Shen Jiu proceed to banter for a while, ignoring both YQY and LQG.

What happened was: Time functions differently in the heavenly realm; ergo, Both Shens have spend a lot of years together and already consider the other their sibling. And their dynamic is to fight and banter... so normal siblings.

Long story short; The Shens are send back to the mortal realm to work and solve mysteries because the heavenly officials were tired of them, and fight over who uses the body.

No one want to use it. They have to be responsible when they are SQQ and it's bothersome. Also CQM keeps trying to make them come back and be a peak lord but solving mysteries is more fun.

Tenrys of the Six-Souls, the first of my slaanesh warband finished today! really fun, I love painting lots of golds and reds... i'm going to polish them a little bit when I get some gloss varnish eventually (i want the mirror and gems to be extra shiny) but for now im super happy with the whole thing

you can see my Epitome lurking in the background there which im gonna paint similar to the mirror on this dude- red with that black fade and with stars/sparkles visible within. my daemonette attendants will probably end up dark burgundy, too. anyway glad to be back to painting! ive got a nice amount of free time to spend on my warband projects so I should be posting more minis soon :)

I read to escape reality, yet even within the pages of fiction you meet me there. When even the most random book I pick up carries with it elements that point right to you— and with the eeriest of specificity— how can I not believe you’re woven into the very fabric of my existence? – R.West April 4, 2024

i have recently written down the large majority of my OC lore and have tucked it into a pastebin, which contains more pastebins...

it may be updated on occasion. in the event that happens, i will update this link with a new version of the masterlist whenever necessary.

i feel weird having this post be text-only, so heres some recent sketches of IRIDESCENCE, one of my newer main casts. in the future i may redo this in a more tumblr-specific format. i really wanted to get this out there for my tumblr following though because a lot of them dont really even know my OCs. enjoy reading some good word salad, if you want.

L looked at the ceiling, absently rubbing at the scar that had formed on his chest, it was large and twisted, it stood out from his skin and ached as if it was freshly healed, he blinked his mismatched eyes and then sighed, “Well at least I’m not waking up covered in blood all that often anymore.” He mumbled, it was still weird to share a body with another soul, one that was corrupted by the abyss beyond repair.

So is TwinSoul from Lumar then? He has to be, right? Is he a spore eater for roseite? If so why isn't it killing him? And he has great control over it, so maybe I'm way off base, but it takes water to use, and just seems really similar!

It's so funny how I used this IG platform...it's as if I recycled its vapid use to the warmth and literary l expression that resided on LiveJournal. Remember that? It's still around. Let me pour you a glass of pure 90s ageism. . "I have an extra ticket!" Snaps @hannahmaniacal . "I'm a lampshade! Come hear me sing!" . Hannah and I are exotic animals that slice through Seattle's dreariness. If I ever had a spiritual twin, she is it. Hannah: Hippy Rainbow Unicorn. Me: The Irridescent Dhali Serpent. Hannah uses color. I use pattern. Hannah sings in a acid rock band. I sing Depeche Mode and The Cure during karaoke. . She gifted me a rhinestone crown pin for my hat. Queen, she said. I gave her my purple turquoise ring. Oracle, I replied. . We both read tarot. We are both voice actors. She does corporate. I do everything but corporate. We both love fighting. She fell in love with Savate. I fell in love with Bjj...which is funny, because now we are both blue belts. . Yet, what is beautiful about us is that we are technically old, but no one would know it. In fact, Hannah is older than I am and she lives everyday as if it were her last. We have both been through horrible times and, when I feel that I've lost my way, when I feel like life is darker than it really is, she always pops up and reminds me how sweet life can be. . The Conner Byrne was the last place I visited in 2019 before my entire world fell apart for nearly 4 years. Ballard Ave held nothing but broken memories and heartache...yet, leave it to random ass Hannah to pull me out in the cold and snow and say: Hey. I love you....even as Lamp. . Thank you, Hannah. I love you, too.... even as a Snake. . #goodsouls #Seattle #ballard #connerbyrne #barculture #music #concerts #nerdgirls #twinsouls (at Conor Byrne Pub) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmVb2ZorQL6vZRX5L-DbjfNQIssh-vI9f84pMk0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
