It’d just be really nice if some prevalent figures died, preferably if they were killed but I’ll take anything at this point
#I wish I had matilda powers#I wish someone else had matilda powers#like it doesn’t even have to be violent#it’s also be cool if some powerful papers mysteriously disappeared forever#why does this country act like good things happening to people in impossible and unfortunate situations is evil#bro you’re not even rich why do you care#and the cure to these selfish assholes has to be kindness#????#when they deserve to be hurt#just more proof that god doesn’t exist or is a fucking monster#do you know who does deserve kindness#everyone that pays for the privilege cishet white men receive#and 55 percent of white women voted conservative#wtf#of course I’m still choosing kindness#and even the people that voted that way should be treated fairly#I’d just like to point out that I’m not being treated fairly#my loved ones aren’t being treated fairly#those I align myself with aren’t being treated fairly#and haven’t been for centuries#and we have to fucking clean this shit up#again#I’m choosing equality and equity not role reversals#but I get to be mad about it too

Prompt 237
“Wait, so, Captain Marvel is like, three?”
Said hero pauses as he nearly passes by a cracked door, creeping slightly closer despite it being more than a little rude to eavesdrop. All of the gods were insistent, which he could say no to, but Billy was giving him the equivalent of puppy eyes, which they all knew he was weak to.
He? They? Marvel was technically an amalgamation of the past champions, currently split between six beings, though nowhere near equally. Billy was and would be the chosen champion- pure of heart to be able to resist the Gods’ bullshit- but he had chosen a team himself, which honestly Marvel approved.
“What the fuck do you mean by that, Hal?”
He didn’t move from the corner, head tilting slightly at Green Lantern’s and Green Arrow’s words. Billy, not physically there, not really, wiggled down from his shoulder, passing through the wall like a ghost invisible to all but him.
Well, him and the Gods, but Mercury’s words were muffled, nearly silenced by Solomon at the moment, so he was probably attempting to wax poetic about Flash again in a way that little ears shouldn’t hear.
“I mean, Marvel mentioned he was created three years ago, right?”
Ah. Marvel had meant that the newest Champion had been chosen, but well, he supposed that the team didn’t have all the information, as Solomon pointed out. And he was pretty sure that Billy was mostly in control at that point- it could get confusing with the hive-mind but not-hive-mind. It was hard to explain to those not apart of it.
But they had to go now, Fawcett called, and it wasn’t like Billy could leave it for long. Chances were nothing would come from this anyway.
…
Why does this feel like the intervention videos Billy showed them all.
#Shazam#Billy Batson#Captain Marvel#Prompts#DC#DCU#Divine Twitch Chat#It’s not outright stated since the past champions are better at ignoring it#And then there’s Billy who is their funky feral lil guy#Who can be bribed via powers to cause mischief#But they haven’t convinced him to curse anyone yet#The league: Is Marvel a child#Marvel (internally): Well yes but also no#They might use this to let Billy have more of a childhood actually#Why yes do show Marvel all the stuff and foods of modern day#There hasn’t been a champion after teth for centuries & they crave experiences#All the past champion hivemind at billy: Is a baby how adorable <3#The gods at billy: Look at the mischief maker who entertains us <3#Billy: Man Im glad you all & Tawny showed me how to hunt squirrels#prompts#justice league#shazamily#yes they are there too#No the rest of the league has no idea marvel has his own team back in Fawcett

oh pallas and agnes power dynamic you really are SO unbelievably fucked,,,,,
#haven’t been able to write in days so i am posting instead. forgive me.#it’s just so. like. okay pallas has all of the material power here that’s not a question they’ve got much stronger magic they#know how the library works they’re directly placed in a mentorship role at the beginning re agnes she depends on them#for everything.#but also#pallas is very much Not Doing Well mentally (<- understatement of the century) and is pathologically incapable of processing their own#emotions related to this AT ALL. and in the process of trying very very hard to get to Know pallas (so pallas will Like her so pallas will#want to keep her alive) agnes kind of comes to understand a lot of pallas’s issues even better than pallas does and pallas starts to depend#on her for emotional support in a way they NEVER have with anyone else.#and pallas’s ability to show vulnerability has been soooo wrecked beyond belief that to them doing things like sharing part#of their backstory and being visibily hurt around someone is tantamount to placing a knife in someone’s hand and#then circling all of their weak points with a giant red marker while going ‘HEY STAB HERE’#so in their mind by doing this they’re giving agnes an IMMENSE amount of power over them like enough to kill them dead even though very#little else has changed about their dynamic. so pallas believes that they’re standing on much more equal ground then they really are#and agnes partly believes it too she thinks that by seeing this much of how broken down pallas is she’s finally found the balance in their#relationship she’s finally found a way to make it stable. and yeah. to some extent this is true!#pallas DOES listen to agnes more than any other person agnes IS the first person in years to understand them this much pallas’s dependence#on her for their mental wellbeing DOES give her some measure of power over them. but that power is given out on pallas’s terms is the thing#whether they’re aware of that or not. agnes wouldn’t have anything if pallas didn’t actively choose to be vulnerable with her there’d be#no way she’d learn about anything no way she’d get to play this role in their life#they believe that this thing is much more equal much more sustainable than it really is (pallas especially) and they’re#literally all each other have#grabs your face are you listening THEYRE ALL EACH OTHER HAVE IN THIS PLACE THEYRE BOTH IN SUCH HORRIFIC SITUATIONS AND THEY R EATING#EACHOTGER TO SURVIVE!!!!#head in fucking hands#wip: ghost story#pallas and agnes

truth be known I was on Pinterest browsing Tudor-era art and this popped up. Oh my days! look at these!
Full credit goes to: ‘kirstenmariechr’ on Pinterest
(She has a few different versions so I thought I’d post a couple together)
The talent! The vision! It’s really wonderful
#I’d struggle beyond belief to do this. trying to recreate a face without having seen all of it?#v impressive#and you know#it's a weird thought. for all those people who had their portrait on an angle#no one has seen their full face in centuries.#even tho we sort of can tell what they looked like#thomas cromwell#also#I did message her to ask if she’d be ok w me reposting these. but she hasn’t been active in like 6 years#and I haven’t heard anything back in nearly a year#which is a shame because her stuff is very good#hope she’s doing well :)#tudor history#the Tudors#Wolf hall

found some some farcilles in my doodle folder that I still kinda like so here you go 💖 lesbian aragorn and arwen you will always be famous
#dungeon meshi#farcille#this may be the most self-indulgent thing I’ve ever drawn haha#how are you friends!! it’s winter where I am#which makes looking at marcille in that purple dress a bit surreal actually. I keep feeling bad that I didn’t give her a jumper haha#designing outfits for these two has been SO FUN though#bc you guys know I’m a nerd for medieval fashion#and falin’s specific sensory issues mean I get to take more inspiration from the earlier parts of the period#which is less represented in fantasy couture compared to like the late 14th and 15th centuries and that is a CRIIIIIME#(I could segue into a full essay here about how glad I am for the autism representation in this series)#(but I have already been discussing that at length on my regular blog all year haha)#(so instead I will just say GO WATCH DUNGEON MESHI if you haven’t already! go watch it again if you have! it’s so so so good you guise)

my favorite thing about dash watching iwtv is that people are talking about daniel running rings around loumand and yet as far as i can tell they walk themselves into that old man’s house every episode like babygirl(s) just break up with your therapist and you’ll be fine????
#iwtv#interview with the vampire#I’ve been dash watching shows lately#because I haven’t had the energy for anything other than house’s gay ass#iwtv and century of love were my favorites they both seem so neat#911 is just hilariously convoluted

HAMILTON HAS A GERMAN TRANSLATION????
#i have mixed feelings about hamilton don’t get me wrong#but they translated the american history musical??#i haven’t been this excited since i found out my fair lady had a german translation#ok das wichtigste zuerst:#hamilton does not siezen OR duzen washington but a secret third thing#ihrzen?#is this some sort of even MORE respectful anrede because he’s the president- no wait washington is doing it too#hang on checking something#hamilton and burr also address each other as ihr#i think ihr was just the 18th century’s sie#but wait! hamilton and burr switch to du midway through the room where it happens#was hast du dir dabei gedacht new york city an den süden zu verraten#that’s an odd place to make the switch! would’ve thought during non-stop if anywhere#actually maybe it does make sense#they still respect each other in non-stop#room where it happens is kind of the turning point in their relationship#i can’t find the german lyrics to your obedient servant but i bet they’re FASCINATING#this is so cool

I’ve seen multiple posts/heard multiple ppl say that coop will die in fallout and like….i mean. Yeah probably tbh. and i think that absolutely makes sense. This man lived an entire life before the bombs. he was ready to retire early to a ranch and raise his daughter and spend the rest of his life with his family and just. Fucking chilling tbh. he was good. He was happy. he was ready to just ride that happiness out until he died of old age.
his goals now are to find out what happened to his kid and dismantle the system/corporations that blew up everything he and everyone else had or could have had. and then he’s done.
#.ooc ( dani is an asshole )#he will happily live on longer than that should his child still be alive and he can still raise her#(lbr unlikely….)#but he has been ready to die for centuries#and is just holding out for that one possibility#even as far as taking down vault tec I’m not sure he thinks it’s his job to do that#or decide whether to do that#but he can give someone else all the information they need to make that kind of decision#and point them in the right direction#they’re the ones who are gonna have to live in whatever world will come after not him#I haven’t had coffee yet….i hope this make sense#ALSO ONCE AGAIN REMINDED HOW OUAT SHOULDVE LET RUM DIE

When you want to visit the Alhambra but mom’s like “we got the Alhambra at home”
#niche joke maybe?#unclear how many millennials and elder gen z are familiar with moorish decorative arts#but this is the theatre at New York City center#described in the show program as ‘1943 neo-moorish’#I think theatres need to start having themes again why did we stop doing that#I’m not saying we should randomly model them on landmarks of other cultures#because it’s so fucking weird#like the garde arts center in CT is vaguely Egyptian and it’s like??? that’s a choice#but new build theatres are just like neutral spaces#which I understand completely you don’t want to distract from the production happening onstage#but surely there’s some middle ground we could reach!#some kind of neo art deco revival could be lovely#especially as more and more art deco theatres are getting restored to their historic designs#I don’t know if theatres are this way in other countries but I’m assuming that the American trend at the turn of the century#was influenced by European theatrical tradition#I’ve seen color plates of concert halls and opera houses#so I’m pretty sure our heavily themed theatres built 1900-1950 are a translation of that#unfortunately I don’t really have a knowledge base for American theatres older than that because I haven’t really been to any#well wait that’s a lie I’ve been to ford’s theatre in DC#but I don’t think there was much that stood out stylistically to me I think it was just very bog standard federalist#which isn’t the period most people associate it with because of Lincoln#but I don’t know off the top of my head when it was built and that is likely a modern design choice anyway#this has been another episode of ‘I have approximate knowledge of many things’

I was NOT built for this hustle and bustle city life I was built for knitting and sewing in a rocking chair by the fire
#who allowed this#it’s been months and I still haven’t had the time to finish my 1840s dress#or sew any of the other 19th century clothes I’ve wanted to make#or knit the several projects I have planned

#╳┆ dayne speaking ┆◜ ooc ◞#fuck it. I will be adding t.gcf muses here when I inevitably switch back into rp mode#but probably by request and with plotting only. or maybe just drabbles to start.#I’m leaning towards xl and hc both of course & im currently feeling incredibly protective of them.#but mq is so tempting…#also I drafted the fucking. DMT trip coffin fic but somehow managed to make up a cultivation path to go along with it#mostly because - like everyone else - I am still trying to wrap my brain around the logistics of xl being trapped in a coffin for a century#and I’m fascinated by the theory that the brain releases DMT before death + how that coincides with -#near-death out of body experiences#plus the effects of psychedelics on the brain + spirit#especially in a sandbox where the universal flow of energy is a more tangible concept#it’s crack treated seriously#I don’t have to do angst all the time…… I do have a sense of whimsy#actually don’t look at me#im skulking around in the darkest corners of fandom#also maybe it’s just bc I haven’t read ff in like…. 7 fucking years but some of the fics in this fandom have blown my fcking mind wide open#there are things I can never repeat that have been permanently branded into my brain chemistry#and that’s saying a lot considering …. I’m me#not saying I didn’t enjoy it. only saying what the fuck (affectionate)#surprised and delighted to be out freaked#part of me is taking it as a challenge tho. unfortunately for everyone#me seeing the weirdest shit imaginable: I must step up my freak

rotating Halone in my brain case tonight fellas
#as much as she is a deity of Ishgard and has been shaped by the Dragonsong war over the centuries#there is still this deep connection to death because of war#the victorious dead. all is equal and free in death#she is called The Fury#I dunno I just. there’s something about eyrie praying to her to carry the souls of the innocent that were ravaged by the calamity#even though they are not warriors. they are not makers of war and yet they were quite often ishgardian people#there’s an element to war that includes taking care of the injustice of slaughter. the death of the innocent#even if the calamity was not a war#idk eyrie has always carried a sort of affinity to Halone#even though I haven’t nor plan to workshop much of a religious tradition for their village#it exists I know that much but it’ll be important when it is inportent#they came out worship of Halone out of an environment so saturated in it and they found comfort in the routine#of the practices and that turned to more purposeful worship#they don’t have much a thought towards religion but they are generally kindly and respectful#even being someone who has killed that which people consider to be deities#on Several Occasions#correction: they do have thoughts but they avoid thinking about it too hard bc it hurts their head#oc: eyrie kisne

Very jazzed about my shirt sewing progress. One shoulder seam binding/reinforcement is completely done and the other is pressed and pinned in place. After that’s sewn, all I have to do construction-wise are finish the underarm gusset seams, add my already pressed side slit reinforcements, do the cuffs, and hem the bottom edge of the shirt.
The shoulder binding strips really should have been completed earlier, but I had to rework things a little after mucking them up a early on. At least my slightly modified method of attachment works alright, though it won’t be quite as sturdy.
I’ve also done some experimenting with dorset wheel buttons in preparation for the final finishing bits. Considering that I started this project around the end of 2019 or 2020, it’s satisfying to see the end in sight.
#I got overwhelmed and then very busy with finishing my degree#I haven’t been actively working on it for three years straight#ego sum art#my blather#alas I need to cut new cuffs#I want to do a wider button closed late century cuff#based on a dated extant example in the v&a#and the cuffs I have cut are an earlier very narrow link closure style#it’s fine this is legitimately the first time I’ve sewn an entire garment#kitchener’s stitching a sweater notwithstanding
