Cheval De Frise - Fresques sur les parois secrètes du crâne LP (Computer Students)

If you paid close attention to our pages last year, you probably noticed an article about Cheval De Frise, a fascinating French math rock duo. Computer Students reissued their tremendous self-titled album back then, and now they’re back with “Fresques sur les parois secrètes du crâne,” another excellent reissue of their 2002 album. This record label never ceases to amaze with their reissues. Once…

It's interesting to see the differences in the various camps scattered across Athia's landscape.

Most of the time, one gets the impression that they belong to standard civilians. They contain little more than firewood and packs of supplies. Broken wagons and carts. Cups, bowls... you get the idea.

This little site in Avoalet, on the other hand, features skeletons accompanied by weapons. Spears and swords, specifically. And the perimeter of the site is bordered by multiple cheval de frise. It gives the sense of a military site, or at least one involving civilians with some combat knowledge.

I wonder who these people were, to have these weapons. And why they ultimately failed to escape their fate despite them.

The Brother Thieves officially won my last poll for a name for the Second One for All holder/Third One for All holder ship. All for One is proud of everyone for picking his name. However, a lot of people suggested other great ideas for a ship name, so I'm holding a second vote between the last winner and the new suggestions. May the best name win!

Mot valise

Petite, j’ai souvent écouté Dorothée me seriner ce qu’elle avait mis dans sa valise : sa belle jupe grise, quelques chemises, et les fameuses chaussettes rouges et jaunes à petits pois... ad nauseam. La valise de Dorothée ne m’a jamais inspirée. Une accumulation d’objets dont elle n’aurait finalement que peu l’utilité en vacances… Qui emmène une perruque qui frise, un kilo de poires pour la soif, sérieusement ?

Personnellement, j’aurais bien vu dans la valise quelques haïkus, une pivoine pourpre, la douceur du museau d’un cheval, une photo de mes parents jeunes, la tirade de Cyrano, le chant du merle, un disque de Nina Simone, un dessin d’enfant, l’Elsa d’Aragon, le vent chaud dans les pins, une plume bleue et de l’encre rouge, un carnet fleuri et surtout... des mots pour le remplir !

Je suis venu de loin Je suis venu te voir Sans peur de regarder Ce qui me fait pleurer En plein cœur du désir Il n’y a pas plus loin Et je ne connais rien Qui fasse autant souffrir

Que d’être seul pour soi

Sans peur de faire pleuvoir Des pierres sous mon toit Et autant que je sache J’ai banni le pouvoir Que je pouvais sur toi Si encore je me cache, viens accompagne-moi Sans peur de t’y trouver, je serai là pour toi

De bien encore plus loin Et quoi que tu en dises Bien sûr tu m’attendais Sur un cheval de frise Tu en avais besoin Je sais je le connais

Nous revenons de loin Sans compter chaque fois Où l’on ne se sent rien Personne ne le voit

À parler comme ça À sentir tout de toi La mort nous fait le beau Sachant qu’elle n’aura Jamais mon dernier mot

Je suis venu de loin Je suis venu te voir

13. what themes/motifs do you hope other people notice most about your character?

Questions for the mun || @lightwithinthenightsky

Shiet, I was hoping this wouldn’t get asked in all honesty, lmao

Honestly I don’t think there are really any deep themes/motifs to Millicent, at least not that I’m aware of (which feels weird to write considering I created her, but-)

I think, if I had to really say something, one thing would be her excelling with magic. Obviously she has her own magic that she doesn’t need the king’s blessing for, but in general she has exceptional magic stamina and can handle a lot more use than other glaives. She also has exceptional control and caught on rather quickly (very much due to her experience with using magic prior) She can control it on such a major or minor scale

And something else with it; she’s crafty with it. A small burst of electrical magic to short circuit an electronic door lock, icing a door to keep it open and in place, angling crystal points to be makeshift cheval de frise. She uses her magical skill set to it’s full potential and beyond, on and off the field.

The Complaint: or, Night-Thoughts on Life, Death, & Immortality is a poem by Edward Young and the source of the often quoted but seldom attributed line "procrastination is the thief of time." A meditation, in part, on how quickly life and opportunities can slip away.

Nuit du Loup-Garou, Night of the Werewolf. An undertaking of extermination by a lumberjack-boucanier frontiersman. Cheval de frise in place, rifle with socket bayonet set  and bracer of pistols loaded. The Moon is full and howls fill the air.

Cheval de Frise

Meaning Frisian Horses in French originally because Frisian defense was low on man power so used defenses like this. Popular through World War 2.

Also seen as defense in front of communities in The Walking Dead series.

I love all the thought you've put into this! Cheval de Frise is a badass ship name.

I also want to give an audience to some other neat suggestions:

Everyone, we need a fic name for Second/Third before Three Weeks of Trioholders. Duoholders is already Yoichi/Second, and Trioholders is Yoichi/Second/Third. I've also seen the ship for Yoichi/Second tagged as ichinii in Japanese (the words for one and two.) The problem is, Japanese for Second and Third would be niisan, which also means big brother, so it doesn't work as a tag. Let's put this to popular vote:
