#and i'm so so happy that i did

[aramblingjay]

a creation for every month of 2022

post your favorite or most popular post from each month this year (it’s okay to skip months).

thank you for tagging me @ughmerlin and @lamberts! ❤ it was a lot of fun to look back through everything i've made this year and see how much i've learned!

i split the list out by month from june, which is when i started using PS + HD video and making gifs in earnest. but i wanted to pick a favorite from the first half of the year, too, because i couldn't have made any of the later sets without the experience from the earlier ones!

january - may 💕 favorite: sevasey + i'm even more grateful to have you 🏅 most popular: sevasey + mi casa es tu casa part 2

june 💕: witcher core 4 + linked by destiny 🏅: geralt handling ciri with care

july 💕: geralt trying to make ciri smile 5 + 1 🏅: witcher 1x04, geralt and jaskier at the banquet

august 💕: geralt & ciri + rockabye 🏅: geralt calling everybody on the continent his friend except jaskier

september 💕: merthur's once and future love + marbles 🏅: geraskier + welly boots

october 💕: daemon's hood of hijinks 🏅: viserys & daemon in hotd 1x08

november 💕: daemon + when is a monster not a monster 🏅: doctor who 5x02, the doctor and amy hug (ik this was posted dec 1 but shhh)

december 💕: geraskier love languages + words of aggravation 🏅: translating viserys's pained daemon smiles

nothing terrifies me as much as having to pick who to tag, so i’ll just say if you’re a gifmaker who sees this and wants to do it, here’s your open invite to say i tagged you!

under the readmore, to not clog up the dash: here's one gif from each of my favorite sets from this year!

Day 15: Spark

[ash-and-starlight]

sooo so happie to launch into space the art i did for this @zukkabigbang2024 for the beautiful fic

The Mercy of Magpies

written by the wonderful showstopping @ranilla-bean and betaed by the equally iconic @faux-fires. Featuring dilves, birdies, true love, war, crazy plans, dubious plastic surgery and a galaxy far, far away. Please check out the rebloggable fic post with its special cover art here (or jump directly to the fic, I can't blame you, it is That Good)

also, some extra juicy plot relevant characters pop up in later chapters and havent been included for 👀 spoiler reasons 👀 but you can already try to guess who they are who's that pokemon style <3

So I'm leaving work and something darts in front of me, maybe 10ft away, too fast for me to see what it is. Peek around the tree blocking my path and I see this

Just like... a whole ass hawk. Dude's gotta be about 1.5ft tall. Massive fucking bird. And it's just staring me straight in my soul like this, even as I try to move ahead. It didn't budge. And there's only this path back to my car unless I want to walk on a busy highway. So I have the option of Death By Raptor or Death By Truck.

So I walk in the poison ivy filled patch off the sidewalk. Guy still isn't moving. Still staring me directly in the eyes. And I do this thing when animals are behaving strangely where I'll talk to them, so I'm just like, "Hey, man. I don't know you. You don't know me. This feels really threatening. I'm just trying to get to my car, dude. Can I get some space please? You're a big fucking bird. I see those claws. You could kill me right now, but I'd appreciate if you didn't, ok?"

It didn't move until I was about 2ft away. Again: I'm as far from it as I can be without walking into the street. It clearly wasn't going to budge. I walk past, thing flies up (silent, btw. Scary) and lands on a brick wall a little further ahead

Anyway. Weird guy. Nearly shit my pants when I noticed a bird big enough to carry off a fully grown cat was just... there, staring me in the face, unwilling to move away from me, a human, something it should see as a threat. I watched behind me the whole rest of the way to my car, just in case this bird decided to help me shed this mortal coil. 10/10 experience. Super cool guy.

Finally made a "finished version" of this sketch I did three years ago!

Better late than never, I guess

I don’t think we’ve ever seen you draw knight of dawn before 🤔 what are your thoughts about him? Or take?

I've drawn him a couple of times, just really little/in the background. but I should draw him more, I love this guy a lot! I have many, many thoughts about him and the way he parallels Silver...and also I think it is extremely funny that his ghost is stuck in a ring. especially considering where that ring has been for the last 16-ish years.
