Flare Signal (by @queenangst/achievingelysium on AO3) Fic Binding Update #6

I LIVE AGAIN

For most people, one bind does not take this long. However I am a) a beginner and b) the physical embodiment of ADHD (so motivation is a lil hard to come by) (my poor friend has been waiting on her birthday gift for over a month now) (but it's fine)

Edge trimming did take ages as I predicted last time but it's DONE and it looks pretty decent considering I did it by hand with a wood chisel and a homemade press. Also finished reinforcing the spine & added headbands and bookmark!

AND I made the case today! First time using the foil quill pen I bought months ago (thanks to the good folks in the @renegadeguild discord server for the recommendation!) I kept the cover design very simple and didn't do anything on the spine or back, mostly because I didn't quite know how the pen worked yet and this was my last bit of red bookcloth so I was Very Scared of Messing Up

The phoenix design definitely isn't as perfect as it would be if I used a cricut, but for hand-drawn I think it looks p good so I'm happy with it

Making sure the case fits, not glued in yet (that's a job for tomorrow)

I always think how funny that the fact of Damian likes shoujo manga makes sense, because it makes sense

This boy was raised by a cult of assassin and then he travels to Gotham and there he becomes one of Batman soldier Robin

And then, years later, he started like anime, but - for everyone surprised - Damian doesn't get impressed by shounen violence by violence, vengeance stories are boring to him. He saw this so many times before. "There is no way to bleed this much blood in that simple cut" and shit like that

But now shoujo, where the heroine believes in love and tries her best to be a good person? Oooohhh this impressed him, the stability of the slice of life

This is something he has never seen before and this somehow reminds him what dick told about some hope and justice

Also I’ve said it before about Ezran&Zym and Rayla&Callum being two halves of the show’s narrative centre but it truly is funny to contrast and compare Zym and Callum accordingly bc

Both Callum and Zym are separated from their biological fathers (dead) and mothers and stowed away in Katolis castle

In the S2 finale, Zym learns to fly due to his bond and love with Ezran. In the S3 finale, Callum learns how to fly due to his bond and love with Rayla.

Both have an equal hand in removing Rayla’s binding; Callum shatters the primal stone, allowing for Zym to be hatched, 

“It feels the way it did when I used the fulminus spell. See? Zym feels it too.”

Attached to the same arcanum (which, I’d imagine the Draconic Royal family’s arcanum was chosen in the creative process to both set up Callum’s arc with Sky, but also the irony of them being the ones to imprison Aaravos and thereby take away his freedom)

Harrow’s final goodbye to Callum is “Take care of your brother,” just as Ezran’s goodbye to Zym (novelization wise) is “Take care of him” to Zym, speaking about Callum

“His destiny will be the destruction of humanity” (3x06) / “The human mage, already tainted by darkness, and destined to play right into my hands” (4x04)

my favorite work memory from this store will always be “hey remember when the subway inside the store closed down and they let me take a bunch of their shit for free and now it lives inside my house?”

my life is a joke

Book 2 au with Zuko and Katara Lee and Huamei

Katara is separated from her friends, and so she's left to travel the earth kingdom on her own. She stumbles across Zuko, who is similarly travelling on his own. They decide that pairing up and travelling together would be best

i've been waiting for gravity falls to become relevant again so i could share one of my favorite underrated bits from the entire show. like it's only episode 2 but this whole segment just makes me lose my shit. i think jason ritter's exasperated line delivery is what makes it

my favorite flavor of steddie is like, eddie who is on the cusp of unhealthily obsessed with steve like if you angle it a certain way it would be Toxic™ but it's like a true and sweet enough love that it just falls short like he's not controlling and manipulative and he can do his own thing without steve but his brain is just STEVE STEVE STEVE in the background the whole time. and then you have steve who is looking at eddie like he's the coolest thing in the world, and LOVES eddie, but like in such a lovely mundane way like he daydreams about holding eddie's hand and cooking him breakfast and picking out curtains and planning a fall wedding for them kind of love.

just steve who deserves to be someone's first choice no matter what and eddie who deserves someone who looks at him like he's a regular person who deserves a normal life and chooses every single day to love eddie no matter what

I know we like writing fics where Jason is all "I'm not the kid you lost" and "he died and I'm all the worst parts of him that came back" and whatever. but lately I've been thinking about a Jason that's angry bc everyone thinks he came back wrong, because to him, he's the same as he's always been. sure, he's more upset and angry and traumatized, but he's still Jason.

I've been thinking about a Jason that spent most of the time since his death underground and then catatonic. to him, hardly any time has passed at all. to his family, three years have gone by. and Jason knows he looks different than he did, and he knows he's sharper around the edges, now, but he's still Jason. he's the same kid that died and now he's back and why doesn't anyone see that?

they're the ones that changed, not him
