don't m3 me in ROULETTES

[yenich]

there was a new posters drop and I just realized what seemed odd to me

Every dragon were changed to look more realistic and I get why, but still there is toothless who looks the same

And I understand that he is the face of the move, people will go to see this big lizard kitty

But he look so much different compared to other dragons like

Why change everyone and keep him the same? Why not keeping every other dragon the way they looked in animated version...

early childhood

the middle child with an older brother (leo) and a younger sister (eden), she was always overlooked by everyone in her life. when she was in primary, her parents boasted to their friends about how amazing their sons’ below average grades were. when she was in elementary, her teachers praised her sisters’ unimpressive ballet performances.

she’s always known this too. she knows her parents have favorites that they don’t even bother to hide. it was obvious from the moment she could see.

her siblings would always get the most expensive birthday presents, tailored to their every desire. anara received impersonal stock birthday cards and china dolls that blinked. she’s always hated dolls.

her parents, despite having so much money for eden and leo, move them from a very comfortable all-american home to a small apartment complex when anara is around five years old.

it didn’t take a genius to figure out why. her mother was always drinking and spending more money than she could afford. her father spent his money on ‘business trips’ with whichever new secretary caught his eye.

pre-crash high school

freshman year, she lays low. she’s always been a part of the background — why would she make waves now? she just wants to graduate and get into a decent college. it takes at least a month longer for teachers to stop forgetting her name compared to other, more vibrant, students.

sophomore year is a little different. she sits next to a kind blonde girl in her government class. at first, anara crosses her off as another insincere christian girl who keeps a facade of an innocent lamb before turning into a snake the second someone turns around. but she’s surprised. laura lee is exactly who she acts like. a supportive, caring, and maybe a little excessive, friend. it’s the first time anara’s been seen instead of glanced at.

laura lee, an already seasoned soccer player, convinced her to join the team. anara has never played soccer for a team before. the only experience she’s had was when her father gifted her a soccer ball for her ninth birthday after she’d asked for a teddy bear. but this is a friend (a strange word, she thinks laura lee is more of a saving grace) and anara is not in a position to decline friendship.

surprisingly, she makes varsity. she starts out as a goalie but after seeing her sprint, the coaches quickly move her to midfield.

junior year and she’s making a name for herself. people see a number three jersey and either grimace at the challenge they know they’ll face or smile at the welcoming sub that’ll bring the score up.

she’s only growing closer with laura lee, their friendship considered one of the inseparable duos of the yellowjackets, challenged only by shauna and jackie.

besides laura lee, she’s made some new friends like van and jackie. unfortunately she’s also gotten sucked into a rivalry with taissa, who doesn’t appreciate the way she sides with the coaches so much, and natalie, who just doesn’t seem to like her in general.

she also has managed to gain respect from the coaches. coach martinez uses her technique as examples for the jv members. coach scott squeezes her shoulder reassuringly before every game. it’s not like she has anything to compare it to but she notices something like pride in these gestures. it reminds her of her father fawning over a drawing eden had given him in second grade.

senior year is going to be her year, she can feel it in the air. it’s her last year at this school, she’ll graduate and be able to move to college like she’s wanted to since she knew leaving her parents was an option.

despite a less-than-ideal pep rally, she manages to get through it without gagging thanks to the light jokes van mutters in her ear. she hates being stared at like some kind of animal in a circus tent and it annoys her when natalie stares at her for a lingering moment. but it’s different than the animalistic stares of the ecstatic students on the bleachers.

and the team is seemingly unstoppable, winning game after game until the next step is nationals.

the night before, anara goes to the party with laura lee to celebrate with her friends and her teammates (still weird terms to her). a fight about allie leads to her standing in front of natalie, held at what feels like gunpoint by jackie, and saying with a forced smile, “i like that you don’t care what anybody thinks. and….i like your hair.” the smile becomes a little less forced when she receives a gruff, “you’re a good listener and you play a fuckin’ mean midfield. and i like your eyes, i guess.”

the morning of nationals is quiet. her brother’s in town so he drops her off with the team with a small wave and a promise of ice cream when she gets back. excitement floods her as she boards the private plane and she lets out a giddy laugh at van’s thanks to mr. matthews. she sits next to laura lee and sighs in bliss. soon she’ll be at nationals, doing what she’s started to believe is her purpose.

but when she wakes up, it’s to the sound of screaming and all she can see is fire.

the wilderness

her only thought is “where am i?” when she wakes up. it’s only until she feels herself yanked up by a frantic laura lee that she registers something besides the ringing in her ears. that doesn’t make it easier. they’re trapped in the middle of nowhere with scrapes of food and water. and there’s smoke and blood everywhere, holy shit there’s way too much. yet one thing is ever present in her mind in the aftermath of the crash: this is not her year.

notes: so!! i feel like this was me yapping into the void abt pre-crash anara. calling you an ant colony cause all i fed you were crumbs. i swear i’ll write details abt her in the wilderness but i don’t know how to phrase/describe it fully. i might break it up between seasons. anyway meet anara officially!

Good news: temporal mistake is finished being written (outside of final edits and revisions)!!

Bad news: I have now entered the gnashing-my-teeth-and-biting stage of excitement to share it but I gotta wait

[sleeplesslark]

New pokemon game announced has me starting a new pokemon legends arceus playthrough! Maybe I'll beat it this time.

God this game is pretty.

i feel like gaz would be the best dressed out of all the 141. his style would be casually cool, he doesnt really spend much time on his apperance or outfiits, but nearly all of his clothes match so he doesnt have to. i think he'd mix sportswear with stuff like sweaters. his favorite color is blue also. if you can’t tell.

I think I woke up too early today which normally isn't bad just go to bed a bit sooner EXCEPT a new chapter dropped for a fic ive been reading g and I wanna draw the scene so bad but I am too mentally tired to mess around with perspective

[lologoinsolo]

ALRIGHY!!! Now that all cats and men are met. Dun dadda dun🎉🎉🎉🎉 I can get into the “easing reader into the polycule that is the 141” part. Yayayayayyayayayayayyaya

I’m gonna take a little break on Cats and Their Men so I can work out a really good outline while also working on Kyle’s series and a little of John’s series (separate series that are NOT attached to Cats and Their Men) and also work on the next chapter of In The Shadows. I might write some In Between Moments as a treat for Cats and Their men when I get some of Kyle’s chapters (from his own series) done.

AS ALWAYS, my inbox is open!!
