the way Percy's friend group is literally -
4 monsters:
half-goat who's technically twice his age
one-eyed brother who's technically half his age
surprisingly lovely giant dog from hell
strangely devoted flying horse who can talk
and an odd assortment of people:
his mama
immortal lesbian who was a tree for a few years
scary buff girl who bullied him a little
autistic kid who radiates death and had a crush on him
nicest demigod ever whom he had a crush on before he... died
allegedly normal girl who now randomly tells the future
autistic girl who tried her absolute hardest to hate him then promptly fell in love with him. now they're soulmates
goddess of hearth

Hello I really Love Your art ! But Why do you not Draw Genshin Boys you would be so Much More popular If you draw Them not guys from irrelevant Games??? Also Pls don't draw BBW thx
Anon thank you but I literally drew one guy over 5000 times just because I like him, does it look like I'm a rational being. Does it look like I'm here for fame or money of any sort.
Look at him. I guarantee 99% of my followers have no idea who this guy is, and yet I draw him for the past 4 years incessantly only because it scratches the itch in my monkey brain. I just like him : D
But yeah, sorry, I won't draw something I don't really care about . And I will draw women when I want to 💃

skraelroc werewolf au
(give me an au and i'll give you five headcanons; thank you for the ask!)
we're going with "general canids" here because
bellroc is obviously a maned wolf (chrysocuon brachyurus) bc they likewise are 90% leg, have a magnificent ruff, and just generally give off an air of "you expect them to be giving off shoujo manga sparkles."
skrael is an arctic fox (vulpes lagopus) because literal years ago i sent a rp partner a picture of an arctic fox stealing an egg like "that's your boy!" and now. that boy is now my boy. egg-stealing trickster bastard but so cozy comfy in the cold (plus summertime gothmode) and soooo cute.
nari, of course, is a tanuki (nyctereutes viverrinus) because nobody remembers tanuki are technically canids AND ALSO while that's true of all three of these species, racoon dogs are more closely related to foxes than maned woofs. also also, per wikipedia: "they are reputed to be mischievous and jolly, masters of disguise and shapeshifting but somewhat gullible and absent-minded." hello.
fox!skrael showing up on the lake family doorstep because he loves causing problems. barbara coos! picks him up! jim come here look at this little man. i'm gonna have to start getting him the good food. do you think people would like him on instagram? jim, meanwhile—merlin's champion woofhunter…?—immediately calling arcadia animal control,
bellroc. gets. a king arthur squeaky toy. they deserve it.
…perhaps not the truest to the spirit of the prompt (wee crow was a vampire lad), but. bork bork. grrr. awoo!!

Alright uninformed rant time. It kind of bugs me that, when studying the Middle Ages, specifically in western Europe, it doesn’t seem to be a pre-requisite that you have to take some kind of “Basics of Mediaeval Catholic Doctrine in Everyday Practise” class.
Obviously you can’t cover everything- we don’t necessarily need to understand the ins and outs of obscure theological arguments (just as your average mediaeval churchgoer probably didn’t need to), or the inner workings of the Great Schism(s), nor how apparently simple theological disputes could be influenced by political and social factors, and of course the Official Line From The Vatican has changed over the centuries (which is why I’ve seen even modern Catholics getting mixed up about something that happened eight centuries ago). And naturally there are going to be misconceptions no matter how much you try to clarify things for people, and regional/class/temporal variations on how people’s actual everyday beliefs were influenced by the church’s rules.
But it would help if historians studying the Middle Ages, especially western Christendom, were all given a broadly similar training in a) what the official doctrine was at various points on certain important issues and b) how this might translate to what the average layman believed. Because it feels like you’re supposed to pick that up as you go along and even where there are books on the subject they’re not always entirely reliable either (for example, people citing books about how things worked specifically in England to apply to the whole of Europe) and you can’t ask a book a question if you’re confused about any particular point.
I mean I don’t expect to be spoonfed but somehow I don’t think that I’m supposed to accumulate a half-assed religious education from, say, a 15th century nobleman who was probably more interested in translating chivalric romances and rebelling against the Crown than religion; an angry 16th century Protestant; a 12th century nun from some forgotten valley in the Alps; some footnotes spread out over half a dozen modern political histories of Scotland; and an episode of ‘In Our Time’ from 2009.
But equally if you’re not a specialist in church history or theology, I’m not sure that it’s necessary to probe the murky depths of every minor theological point ever, and once you’ve started where does it end?
Anyway this entirely uninformed rant brought to you by my encounter with a sixteenth century bishop who was supposedly writing a completely orthodox book to re-evangelise his flock and tempt them away from Protestantism, but who described the baptismal rite in a way that sounds decidedly sketchy, if not heretical. And rather than being able to engage with the text properly and get what I needed from it, I was instead left sitting there like:
And frankly I didn’t have the time to go down the rabbit hole that would inevitably open up if I tried to find out

I see you got Astolfo to 120! Congratulations!
Thanks! Your message made me realize id forgotten to post about it on here. After a long struggle with bond points i have finally perfected my paladin. He is level 120. His skills are 10/10/10. His append skills are 10/10/still need more servant coins for this last one but it doesn't matter bc its just a random bit of anti rider damage. He is Np5.
It's
Your Friends Astolfo.

A take on the marauders as olympians - Remus would do something that is more about endurance than speed, but also potentially self destructive: climbing!
Snape is spot on, he’d 100% do archery.
Wait I actually can see him as a climber!!! Why does that make so much sense. Maybe it's the werewolf-caves-mountains connection. Specifically I'd go with bouldering which I think (I'm totally clueless about this so sorry) probably involves some strategy like where 2 place ur hands and feets or something. And I can see him thinking about the best/most efficient route up.
Coincidentally I did recently write a scene where Remus was clambering up some rocks lmao, so maybe that's why it seems like such a good fit.
