This is literally so iconic

[tojisun]

cold, distant, “i dont do romance” ghost falling so infatuated with you that his affections mimic an act of worship. something how he’d do anything you ask—he is your champion, if you so wish—just don’t ask him to leave. to go away. being with you, around you, is all he asks. please, you don’t even have to return his love—you don’t even have to know he loves you, so please. let him stay. let him come close. let him breathe you in. use him. he’s all yours to wield—tell him what he needs to do to stay. please. please.

I was asked about the decision re: Zuko's scar (on his arm) in MO, and I thought I would share my response with y'all:

Hello! I thought about the scar a lot, actually. The problem was about the blocking of the scene. In canon, Zuko gets the scar on his face because he begins that scene with his father by going to his knees. The facial scar is representative of the position they were in - Ozai standing in the position of power, Zuko on his knees requesting mercy, mercy being denied.

But I set up a situation in which Zuko would not start on his knees. Standing in front of Ozai is symbolically important to Zuko in-story and also to the narrative itself. So it didn't make sense for the injury to be to the face physically (he wouldn't start in the same position) or symbolically.

The scar being on his arm also creates a different symbol. In MO, the action behind Zuko's injury was Ozai trying to wrest him onto his knees while Zuko was trying to protect 1) himself and 2) the position of sagehood (hence the arm being up, and hence him eventually falling to his knees - he can't protect himself or the temple's status). That's the starting-place of the story when it comes to the Zuko-Ozai relationship.

Also, Zuko's place among the sages is one where he's outwardly uniform to them (with the exception of age). The scar would differentiate him too much from the offset. There are only two non-uniform aspects to his appearance, one chosen (his hair) and one inflicted (his scar). The hair is hidden behind the hat, which has its own complicated symbolism, and which he sheds throughout the story. The scar on his arm is almost hidden, based on the length of sleeves, but is never quite hidden by the uniform. It's symbolic of his rebellion being close to being covered by the uniformality of his sagehood, but never quite hidden.

Saw this post and couldn't resist because,

1.) @tesscourtes' human!Bill is a lil cutie-patootie menace that I very badly wanted to draw, and,

2.) I have a - M I G H T Y - N E E D - for any version of human!Bill to find any way he possibly can to annoy Ford a whole lot :D

Also, 3.) I like to headcanon that Bill's knowledge in The Sciences is mostly limited to 'Ways I Can Make A Really Cool Doomsday Portal', and everything else he knows is just a slapdash mix of the stuff he remembers from whatever schooling he went through on Euclydia, a whole awful lot of lucky guesses (which he WILL gaslight you about if you tell him he's wrong), and - naturally - conning all the rest of the answers he needs out of any more educated saps who are unfortunate enough to be around him at the time (answers which he will then proceed to take credit for), so as far as I'm concerned, this "outfit" is perfect for him.

Ignore the shitty backgrounds, I am sick to death of doing backgrounds, I just want to draw goofy shenanigans, okay???

Going from Vox Machina the last two and a half game sessions to Mighty Nein tonight is absolutely insane tonal whiplash.

Cause both are lvl20 parties who've done incredible things, but Vox Machina heading to battle were like: *battle plan 1000% made enough that there's pretty much nothing to discuss* "We're saving the world again!" *fully confident that they'll successfully save the world, save Vax, and come home to their kids safely* *Inspirational Leader speech to an entire army* *equally confident that even if they fail their family will be fine and able to take care of the world in their stead* *saving eachother instinctively* *successfully saving everyone on a crashing skyship while on another skyship thats being shot at without any hesitation, difficulty or injury* *looking absolutely eipcally cool while doing so*

Meanwhile at pretty much the same time the Mighty Nein are just: *genuinely discussing if charging in butt naked would be an effective plan* *mostly saving the world just cause they live there* *start randomly tattooing people* *discussing love lives and a potential threesome in front of people they met yesterday* *casually arguing about unhinged wedding plans instead of planning for battle* *fighting eachother* 'If you kill our friend I will take advantage of being the favorite uncle to make your life torture' *almost TPK while on a zipline to the battle because they're just such disasters* "YOU WIN BY DEFAULT! DONT SHOOT MY WIFE AND OUR SHARED BEST FRIEND!" *slipping on ball bearings they threw behind them*

Everything about this was just wild in the complete opposite way the last few were

This turns out to be a catastrophic mistake.
