"Scottish Obi-wan is what we deserve"
He's already Scottish. Ewan McGregor is a Scottish actor born in Perth, Scotland.
But if you mean him being stereotype Scot with a kilt and all that, I could get behind that.
how could i watch outlander and not draw the jedi in kilts? scottish obi wan is what we deserve
#sorry the 'we need Scottish Obi-wan' just sent me#because I know he's Scottish#my favorite fact is that#Ewan McGregor was born in the highlands of Scotland#meaning he was literally born with the high ground#anyway#jedi: skywalker#jedi: kenobi#star wars#obi-wan kenobi#anakin skywalker#clone wars

Shez participating in Faerghus customs!! And celebrations!!
#I just think he also deserves to own a nice heavy furry and warm cloak!!#okay HCs#Faerghus to me is primarily Celtic inspired#mainly Irish/Scottish & Welsh#I know the picts were the ones who were known to wear blue woad but I think??? the welsh did it as well#I’m gonna have to brush up on that research#I also tend to blend some Norse in there as well#primarily the runes you see on Dimitri and Lambert#they’re both sporting the rune that represents the Norse god Tyr#and you can’t tell on Rodrigue but he’s also sporting a rune on his forehead#the rune algiz#which represents the elk and has various meanings but primarily protection#but other than that the markings are primarily picts#Dimitri and Lambert are more decorated because they’re the royals#I need to make a proper post about this one day#but other than that!!#have this#:: my art#fe3h#fire emblem three houses#fire emblem#lambert egitte blaiddyd#dimitri alexandre blaiddyd#rodrigue achille fraldarius#shez#shez fire emblem#fe shez

more werewolves au !
Ghost is being a responsible adult and grooming this poor weird pup he found, Price is being a thoughtful pack leader and is trying to inform Ghost that the puppy is not happy, and Gaz is trying to get the puppy to play with him to cheer him up.
This is the same Soap who will bring half of a mouse to Ghost's, Price's and Gaz's doors for them to discover in the morning. Or step on it if they weren't fully awake. And then refuses to admit to himself that it's probably him doing it and not a random stray cat. Even if he would have smelled a stray cat being on his territory. The three of them are convinced that Soap is hiding a cat somewhere because it smells like him.
#cod mw2#john soap mactavish#simon ghost riley#captain john price#kyle gaz garrick#ghostsoap#soapghost#werewolf 141 & cat soap au#i wanted to make soap a scottish fold but i looked it up and it's a very recent breed and it didn't fit my idea that soap's family were#always able to change into a certain cat breed#and there's also the fact that it's a pretty inhumane breed#so here he and his family are european wildcats#guys i had this weird idea of colouring it so obviously i did a half arsed job because i hate colouring and i gave up#but my brain was happy anyway so i win#i'm better at drawing cats than at drawing canines lmao#let's also not pay too close attention to ghost pls i know his face looks like a bear#trust me it was way worse without the colours

it really is SUCH a shame that there’s no episode of TOS where the enterprise crew time jumps to Regency-era England or goes to a planet that modeled its culture on that era or something, because it would truly slap for every single main character. Like I don’t even have to explain why this would be awesome for Spock— Mr. I’ll-smash-a-computer-with-my-bare-hands-before-I’ll-admit-I’m-horny himself, king of repression, who basically recreated the famous Pride and Prejudice Hand Flex Scene™️ with his beloved Captain that one time, who meets a blind woman with a high tech gown that helps her “see” and LITERALLY tells her to give his compliments to her dressmaker, who mislead a woman once about his affections and tenderly promised to safeguard her reputation forever about it, who has the perfect angular features to be set off by a cravat—I mean, you get it, but then you’ve also got Kirk—handsome, affable, brave Naval captain who loves his crew more than himself, who falls in like deep profound love with every woman the plot throws at him—and then McCoy—cantankerous, sure, (ever heard of a grumpy/sunshine trope??) but with impeccable, downright old school manners towards women and, yeah, a doctor’s not that prestigious in Regency times, but for like a young lady in trouble who needs the protection of a man’s name or who just wants to piss off her stuffy aristocrat family by marrying “beneath” them, who could be better? If you throw Scotty in the mix, well, he’s Scottish, which [points at a whole subgenre of regency romance novels] is all he’d really need. I’m just saying they would have CLEANED UP, okay??
#by main character I do mean like main cast/top billing#which is why I’m not including uhura and sulu and chekhov#also because they don’t go off on landing party missions that much they stay on the bridge#I included Scotty because he does go with them more often and also…because he’s Scottish literally#like….do you know how many romance novels are just like ‘Scottish men are irresistible to young English maidens’??#it’s NUTS quite frankly#why aren’t any English maidens obsessed with like….welsh guys??#extra funny to imagine this alien culture modeling itself after the Regency era and they just use like 20th and 21st century romance novels#as their guide which like yeah they are well researched in many cases but also they’re primarily designed for escapism not accuracy#so authors will just hand wave certain things#my kingdom for Spock saying ‘fascinating Captain. They seem to base their culture on the fictional though anthropological writings#of 19th century writer Jane Austen’#if they were making it now this could happen#and unfortunately people would call it a Bridgerton inspired episode#and we’d all have to pretend that wasn’t insane#also to be clear no shade at Scotty he’s great and he’s got a lot going for him but in a regency romance he’d have everybody on accent alon#star trek#tos#do I dare tag this as Jane Austen??

making my own because that other post kinda sucks
not enough room for "people pronounce & spell my name perfectly"
#i chose yes & misspelled—gender because although my (quite common i'd say) name is gender neutral there IS a feminine spelling#as well as other similar-ish names that are feminine as well#& people constantly think it's one of those to the point of ridiculousness#like i'll tell them how to spell my name & enunciate it clearly & they still can't get it until i literally spell it out for them#also my last name is common but like Irish or Scottish or something so people never know how to pronounce the gh (like a k)#everyone... except Norman Reedus. he knows how to spell my name#''hey plasma you keep bringing that up'' yeah because it's insane to me that Norman fucking Reedus can pronounce & spell my name right#but no one else can

finally caught up a wee bit with dr who, i skipped the babies one cos it sounded terrible, went with the music episode.
good things: i like the doctor and the baddy was fun and clarose (i forgot her name twice now) is fine. also a very good episode for reaction images:
less good: i think i made a few of those faces myself while watching. what i assume was foreshadowing was pretty bad (had someone decided "one word repeated every episode" wasn't enough?). i am not sure why the doctor knew exactly what was happening, i don't mind that as an occasional plot device (they do know pretty much everything, after all) but it felt over done in this. why was there a music battle? why was there a song? WHY IS MURRAY GOLD BACK, HAD WE NOT AT LAST BANISHED HIM?
#dw#negativity though D:#mostly#BUT i like the main actors and they're the only people in every episode so at least it's the good way round there right?#it took me this long because i overall don't like RTD's style of Who and this contains a lot of the things i don't enjoy about it :'(#there were moments... there were moments it felt like ten'n'rose had returned from their hellish clique-dimension (season two) to haunt me.#good fucking god i never want to go back there again.#but you know what? at least RTD let this Scottish Doctor use his own accent instead of saying it would be “a tour of the regions” if he did#so that's nice :)#i think Clarose might be northern unless i just transplanted that onto her from one of her mothers (clara and rose had a baby????)#oh wow her eyes go so big! like comically fucking huge! i love it! at least for now!#fifteenth doctor#OH YEAH AND ABOUT THE NUMBERING#rtd critical#(seems like a useful tag for me lol)#at least the doctor kissed the tardis though :) that's what really matters isn't it? the otp. their love. etc.#LOOK HE IS WEARING HER COLOUR 💙💙

#when i was first coloring him in he was gonna be golden chinchilla colored but then i was like ehhh jonah magnus should be red/orange but#elias should be gray ...so i just desaturated what i already did instead of recoloring lol but#he is now supposed to be shaded silver lol#but thats why his coat pattern is on the darker side compared to what it *should* be#og elias bouchard coming from an important/roch family and while whole thing with thinking he just *deserves* stuff bc of his upbringing.#etc. -> he is purebred and matches the breed standards etc for a scottish fold of his color#obviously the eye color doesn't matter because. ahaha#i thought elias fit the Scottish fold vibes because: Scottish folds are known for looking sort of like owls and having intense eyes#and the cat body/face type (also present in british shorthairs) to me gives off sort of... unnasumming vibes?#like ahaha yes i am a boring boss who loves paperwork look at how unnasumming i am season 1-2 elias y'know#trying to think of what cat breed jonah would be. and also jon gerry etc you know all the other characters i like#would it be boring to have multiple british shorthairs#i mean..#Michael shelley/distortion is a laperm that's all I know#i didn't particularly care with the personality attributes associated with eliascat because it didn't need to fit his personality on account#of not being his original body. but i do try to keep in mind the best personality/look/etc. cat attributes as a whole for a character#also sometimes get obsessed with jt making historical and geographical sense but then it just limits me greatly to a point im not into it#so i don't care about specific breeds in that respect lol#tma#my art#elias bouchard#the magnus archives#some notes looking back(made it 2 hours ago but still looking back ok..) on it now are that i feel like elias would never choose this breed#for his next bodyhop because of the inherent health issues in scottish folds. I saw the breed was created in like the early 1960s and#assumed that maybe the health issues wouldn't have been common knowledge until later enough for jonah to be unaware of them but actually no#there's legislation about it like 6 years later LOL so jonah would..maybe not make this choice#i guess in the future when drawing i will just make him a British shorthair#my catTMA is simultaneously 'they are just regular cats or like all show cats or something' and 'exact tma plot but as intelligent cats'#LOL its just vague in my mind idk..also maybe jon can be an Abyssinian#ALSO WHAT WAS I THINKING 'jonah may not have been aware about x thing' like did i...did i forget. me 2 hours ago was dumb as rocks

There are many reasons my interests are more geared towards mediaeval Scotland than mediaeval England, but at least one of them has to be the fact that I am completely incapable of Being Normal about the Lion in Winter and Shakespeare's second tetralogy.
#Like I simply could not remain unbiased#Not in a 'taking sides' kind of way but more in a 'the real Henry II did not entirely resemble this fictional adaptation'#I refuse to accept it and I don't really want to#I could try very hard to research and write about Henry II sensibly- and I often do when he (or Hotspur later on) impinge on Scottish histo#But fundamentally my image of Henry II is the image of the character from the Lion in Winter#It's horrible to have to admit I'm like one of those unhinged Braveheart or Philippa Gregory people but for twelfth century England#Although with all due respect the Lion in Winter and Henry IV Part 1 are obviously twenty times better than Braveheart#There are other reasons#I kind of feel England has enough people interested in it already#I like to dip in occasionally and it's interesting to read about (and often necessary from a Scottish perspective)#But yeah for many reasons mediaeval England- though fascinating- is not my number one priority#One of the pretty big reasons is though my unfortunate fan behaviour the minute Richard II sits himself down on the ground#To tell sad stories of the death of kings#And you know what that's valid and probably acts as a useful research tool for many people#Just not for me#It's weird though because other than Shakespeare and the Lion in Winter there aren't many period dramas I particularly care for#Not only am I incredibly picky about my historical media when it comes to the Middle Ages (less so for the 20th century)#But I never really understood why people assume when you say 'I like history' you mean 'I like period dramas'#To me these are two separate unrelated activities/hobbies#Not necessarily better than each other just different

The real debate:
Do we think Rowan has an Irish accent or a Scottish accent?
I think we at least are all agreed that it’s one of the two
#I vote Scottish because it’s a little harsher#and he’d just be so sexy with it#I mean he is regardless but you know#rowaelin#rowan whitethorn

i found loads of pictures of my uncle i am going 2 cry
#he looked so sweet…..he looks SO much like my dad#i found the last picture of him that my granddad took a month or so before he died it’s so sad#trying to decide if i should tell my mum that i know about him or if i should just keep it to myself#idk if somethings wrong with me maybe it’s because i was already grieving before i found out#but it’s really getting 2 me i can’t concentrate on my uni shit i just keep thinking about it#i think i rlly need to talk about it with someone but i have no idea who or how or what i’d say. but it’s weird because it’s a secret yk#like i’m not even supposed to know he existed#idk. i have a gender clinic appointment next week and i’m going to ask if they can recommend any therapists#me being very very brave and trying therapy again after being forced into it my whole life and ending up a bit traumatised#idk. i feel bad that i’m alive and i’m wasting my life when my uncle got killed when he was just a kid#it makes me feel like i should be more grateful and do more with myself.#and i am going to try but i’d rather he was here instead. same with my granddad#every time i experience something beautiful or good i wish my granddad could experience it because he deserved it more than me#and the best i can do is experience it for him and be grateful. but i would chance places instantly if i could#him and his kid deserve to be here they were so special. i know i don’t know his kid but i’ve heard they were similar#so i know he must have been special too#i found a fb comment today from a family friend i’ve never met and she was saying that she only met my granddad once#but she called him gentle and it made me cry. because he was very scottish and sweary and traditional and masculine#so everyone just assumed he was tough and scary but if you knew him he was really quiet and kind#and i’m glad someone who only met him once could see that#i’m going to be half asleep for the rest of my life i think. i’ve been dreaming since my granddad died and i don’t feel like i ever woke up#nothing has felt real since i was nine years old. everything just stopped and never started again#i’ve just been waiting. i’m waiting for him to change his mind and come back. idk. i don’t know what to do with myself#and i continuously feel fucking insane and stupid for being this way. it’s like fresh grief all the fucking time#but it was fifteen years ago. why does it still feel this way#i can’t even tell people because they won’t understand why i’m still so bothered by it#he was my parent for nine years. i lived with him he was my sole caretaker#i was nonverbal and him and my brother were the only people on the planet who knew what my voice sounded like#he’d think it was silly if i failed my exam because i was crying about him instead#he’d tell me to whisht and stick in. so i will

John McPhee getting abruptly fired before the last race of the season really sums up his WSSP career so far.
Also what is the actual fucking point of firing a rider before the last race? Not the last round, the last race. He's already showed up, practiced, qualified, competed in race one, and then you fire him?!
#and its not even like they replaced him for the last race. they fired him for the sake of firing him#let him back into moto3 i beg i know hes 30 but please#im starting to think john is secretly a shit person because how do you get fired twice in two years?#jk - this is just something that happens to scottish riders for some fucking reason#i think taz is the only one to go un-fired#anyway big up john hopefully 2025 is better for him#john mcphee#wsbk#wssp

#i dont know why two separate bars have blues nights on the same day but its appreciated#and yeah by bar crawl i mean. two bars. and none of is drank. but still.#my reading week is gonna be SOOO goated#gonna see my guitsr teacher aka my bestie for the first time in like three months#because hes coming to town to do a hank williams tribute show. for sone reason.#and then the next night im seeing some sort of scottish fiddle band#and then im going back to toronto and im gonna try to get my mom to let my friend stay with us at our house for a few days#smiles. so this is what socializing is supposed to be?

#listen listen man I don’t know what is happening to me#I asked the Boy if he wanted to call today because I didn’t want to make him feel like he always had to be the one to ask to talk and stuff#you know? because it’s always been him asking up until this point#but I was feeling really apprehensive about it for some reason and just kinda wanted to curl up in a ball and not talk to anyone until#tomorrow—idk I was having an introvert moment#but then as soon as he called me all the anxiety went away and I talked to that boy for FOUR HOURS and now my face hurts so much from#laughing I just took ibuprofen#do I know what this means? absolutely not#anyway. he referred to C.S. Lewis as ‘good ol’ Louie’ and I just about died#also this boy can do a Scottish accent??? HELLO??? he just pulled that out of his back pocket without warning???

(( Banana out here trying to rewrite his own history with his sense of humor.))
#out of the studio (ooc)#appeeling show host (dancing banana)#(( if you know your history you know that none of that last sentence makes sense and is making fun of the concept of 'lore' in general ))#((this is from Shovelware Studios Hollywood which is in early access rn))#((Is it correct? No. But it's his studio so he can write whatever he wants))#((you'd think he'd try to make himself look better but there's a reason why he insists he's worse than he is))#(( interesting to see that if he'd choose a new name that isn't Humba it would be Bonnibel. Gender fluid Banana?))#((It apparently has Scottish roots too))#((Also. Roy Banana probably being the name of the 'brother'))#(( Right there there isn't much because the irl shovel team were hit with delays but it'd be interesting to see where they go))#((and what I can 'borrow' while not breaking blog continuity))#((also a reminder that 'bootlegging' here is probably the parody stuff but that can also been the prohibition stuff))#((which again still. if you know your history doesn't make sense with the rest))
