Wait. Does Link still cheat on Lana in the Everything Was Happy in the Past AU or does the engineer stop that from happening lol? Considering that he became his moral compass, and that Link would probably feel more inclined to talk with the engineer about his and Lana's relationship...

Yes, Wars still cheats on Lana. This time around, Spirit was vocally against this and basically forced Warriors to end things with Lana now instead of dragging things out longer

Petit message parce que j'ai vu parfois lorsque mes avatars sont utilisés sur les forums, (merci de les apprécier assez pour représenter vos personnages 🥰) il y a des crédits qui correspondent pas vraiment aux miens. Ça ne me dérange pas qu'on utilise le nom du tumblr ou mon pseudo, donc Treasure Box, treasurebox, creatreasurebox ou bien Chaussette (ça me va aussi si vous oublié un s à chaussette, j'ai moi même fais l'erreur dans le passé haha 😅). Mais je voudrais juste s'il vous plait qu'on évite d'utiliser les initiales (tb ou ctb par exemple), c'est simplement pour que celleux qui le souhaite puissent plus facilement retrouver mes créations et également pour éviter que mes avatars soient attribués à une autre personne par erreur. Vu que mon pseudo est différent du nom de mon tumblr et que j'ai jamais fais de messages à ce sujet, je me suis dis que je pouvais au moins le dire dans ce post comme ça, si certains se posent la question de quoi utiliser, vous avez la réponse ici. 🤓 Sur ces mots, je vous souhaites un bon mois de Décembre ! ❄️❄️ Chaussette

Triangle Tuesday 9: the Nagel point, alteration on a theme, running out of letters, and the sacred texts

Today we're going to use one of the most ancient methods of mathematical exploration: alteration of an established theme. Or in other words, we're going to say "Hey, I liked that thing you did. How about if we do that, but different. Is that anything?"

Earlier, we looked at the medians, which are cevians (lines drawn through a vertex) that divide the triangle's area in half. This week, we're going to alter that to look for cevians that divide the triangle's perimeter in half and see what comes of that.

These lines are called splitters, and finding where to draw them turns out to be a surprisingly simply problem. We just use the excircles. The places where they are tangent to the sides of the reference triangle are called extouch points, and those are our targets.

Theorem: a line drawn from a vertex to the extouch point on the opposite side is a splitter of the triangle.

Proof: Let Ta be the extouch point opposite A. Let U and V be points of tangency with the extensions of sides AB and AC respectively. Then because the segments AU and AV are both tangent to the same circle, they are equal. Furthermore we may divide the red segments at B and C, and then

AB + BU = AC + VC.

Tangent segments BU and BTa are also equal, and the same for segments CV and CTa. Then

AB + BTa = AC + CTa

which shows that ATa splits the perimeter in half.

And of course what we love is when three lines all cross at one point. Here are all three excircles and extouch points. If we draw in the splitters, will they all cross together?

Theorem: the splitters of a triangle coincide at a point.

To prove this, we will use Ceva's theorem. We look at the ratios that the sides are divided into by the extouch points, that is, ATc / TcB, BTa / TaC and CTb / Tba. If the product of these three ratios is 1, then the lines ATa, BTb, and CTc all cross at the same point.

Then what are those ratios? The semiperimeter of the triangle is s = (a + b + c)/2, which is the length of either the red or the blue path above. Taking the red path and removing the side c, we get

BTa = s - c

BTa = (a + b - c) /2.

Similarly for the blue path we find

TaC = (a + c - b) /2

and the ratio of the two segments of side a is

(a + b - c) / (a + c - b).

Working our way around the triangle, we get

(a + b - c) / (a + c - b) * (b + c - a) / (a + b - c) * (a + c - b) / (b + c -a)

which cancels out to 1.

Here then is the Nagel point, the intersection of the vertices joined to the extouch points, which is also the intersection of the splitters, and given the symbol X(8).

Oh yeah, I can't keep using single letters as symbols for points indefinitely. There's only so many available. From now on, I'll be referring to triangle centers by their Kimberling numbers, which are named after (and assigned by) Clark Kimberling, a professor of mathematics at the University of Evansville. He is the keeper of the Encyclopedia of Triangle Centers, the sacred texts of our cult of triangles. There are currently 65,385 listed, which I realize is quite a few. (Don't try to memorize them all at once.) Most of them are technical and not of general interest, but many of them are a lot of fun to look at. I'll be back next week with a different alteration on the idea of cutting a triangle in half.

If you found this interesting, please try drawing some of this stuff for yourself! You can use a compass and straightedge, or software such as Geogebra, which I used to make all my drawings. You can try it on the web here or download apps to run on your own computer here.

…. Oh boy

———

Story: half au/half original- CtB-Swap variation

Characters: True Main Character (Facade), King Zodiac

Seriousness: eh

Canonicity: probably canon

———

“No”

Zodiac tilted his head, blinking repeatedly at the other’s answer.

“W-what was that?”

“Nope,” the infected one shrugged, “not interested in any a’ that”

Zodiac watched as the other turned and started moving away.

“What do you mean no?!” The monarch scrambled to catch up.

“‘T means no, I won’t help with that problem o’ yours,” the man lowered himself to pick up a couple of baskets, “chances are it might be for the better”

“For the better?!” Zodiac scoffed, “The capital is overrun by those cretins by now! They’ve rigged spells all over the city! We need the help!”

He watched as the other rolled his eye, chuckling in annoyance, “Well good for ‘em! Ain’t magical proficiency one of ya guys’ core values anyways?”

Zodiac huffed, “not used like that no”

The other sighed, extra claws pushing past the king and lifting him away, “‘least y’ admit that, I’ll give ya that”

Zodiac ran after the stubborn idiot.

“You have to understand this is a serious matter, you are by far the most stable infected I’ve ever seen, your magical prowess would allow us to get the palace back”

The other harshly set the baskets down on a table, taking a deep breath before turning to face the king once again.

“I don’t think ya get how little I care ‘bout that, nor how fuckin’ insulting what ya just said to me is,” he chuckled for some odd reason, “I’m over here, doin’ my thing, helpin’ those who have no other help, and you think ya can just waltz right in an’ get me to help ya?!”

He laughed loudly at that.

“Do ya even know my name?!”

Zodiac stared at the other.

As a matter of fact, they did not.

The other sighed after his fit of laughter, a hand rubbing between his eyes.

“Look, ya’ve got your soldiers an’ your buddies, I’m sure people ‘round the coast’ll be more than happy t’ house the Crown,” he moved away from the king, “so go sort your own shit out, an’ leave me alone”

And before Zodiac could protest, the other fell down a pocket portal, teleporting somewhere else.

The king just stood there for a few minutes, wondering how something like this could ever happen.

Nearly all your life you lived on the streets. People ignored you at best and reviled you at worst. Then you got superpowers and those same people begin to lecture you about “altruism,” “duty,” and “responsibility.”

Omg!!! This is so cool! Please tell your younger sister that I love the perspective work, and how ominous Mask looks! 10/10 stars!!! Bravo!!! 💛💛💛💛

I think it's really cool that you both have an AU! I love any and all fanworks based off of CTB, and I'm totally okay with everyone doing whatever they want. I just ask that you show me :3

I'm really happy you're both enjoying the story! I'm really touched to know that you like CTB that much, it's capital-D-Dark moments and all. I hope it continues to please and delivery those character consequences

And please let your sister know that her art's really awesome!

More art from my younger sister, yay!

Mask (Baby Hero of Time) looks like that because he's worn the Fierce Deity Mask too many times for extremely long periods, and now it's started to stain/scar his skin.

I'm also putting her little doodle she made me bellow too.

Mask (Baby Hero of Time) has a/his shadow following him around. This is apparently my sister's view of their relationship.

(She was nervous about letting me post the gif and required that I clarified that it's a low effort, quick animation she only made to get a laugh out of me, lol. She was correct about making me laugh. I was in tears for, like, an hour.)

More explanations (And lack there of?) about it under the cut.

These pieces of art are both from an AU of mine that we roleplay a lot.

I'd explain more, but it's built off an alternate timeline/universe of @wutheringmights story "Call them brothers". And I'm not sure what her rules are about fanart or fanfics, mostly because I never asked or looked into it and I never intended to.

I make AUs for the fanfics I read, write fanfics for those fanfics with thousands upon thousands of words in them and then never post them or do anything other than hand them to my sister to read. She does the same with her art.

...Fandoms are messy enough without me accidentally stepping on someone's toes. (I think my sister doesn't post her art because she's too unconfident though.)

That aside, Call them brothers is literally my favorite fic I've ever read. I know we like to throw that phrase around in the fandom a lot, but I have every intention of getting that sucker printed and bound once it's finished. I've been reading Fanfiction for nearly a decade and this is the first one I've wanted to do that for.

If you're a person who enjoys darker stories and want a story line with some actual consequences for the characters, I'd totally recommend it. The last time I was this gut punched over characters and their development was Red Rising by Peirce Brown (My favorite published book series ever), and Wuthering's descriptions of a war ravaged country and all it's horrors is fucking immaculate.

I found Call them brothers through my desire to see a longer fic that had Spirit Tracks Link, and it did. not. disappoint.

Wuthering's takes on what Spirit's abilities, character traits, and game culture/lore are currently my favorite I've seen from anyone in the fandom, and I would doubly recommend the fic just for that.

That said, it's not a story for the faint of heart. It's Dark. With a capital 'd' for a reason. Wuthering doesn't add all those tag warnings for no reason. Also, if you can't stand to see one of the Link bois written as anything other than what the mainstream interpretation for them is, this isn't for you. War isn't out of character, but he's certainly a bold take. A fantastic one, but bold none the less.

Plus there's mild mentions of Links being interested in other character's that aren't their Zeldas or their typical love interests. There is NO shipping of the Jojo's characters amongst each other, but if you're the kind of person who can't stand alluding to characters having crushes that aren't Link x Zelda, it isn't for you.

I know there's some people in the fandom who don't like that kind of thing, so I thought I'd mention it. Also, you've been warned so no being mean to Wutheringmights about it!

If you're okay with the things I've listed, please, please, please give it a read. @wutheringmights deserves all the love for writing something so good.

(Anyway, I could ramble for hours about all the reasons Wutheringmights is my favorite Author in the LOZ fandom, but this was supposed to just be a post about my lil sis's art that got waaaaay away from me.)

[wutheringmights]

Do you have any thoughts on how "everything was fine" au time, spirit, and warriors would react if they somehow met their ctb canon selves?

Everything In the Past Was Happy AU, how I missed you! This is honestly such a good question. I love thinking about characters meeting alternate versions of themselves, especially when their fates are so wildly different.

For clarity's sake, classic CTB brothers are going to be referred to as Warriors, Spirit, and Time. Everything In the Past Was Happy AU will be referred to by the captain, engineer, and child.

I think the captain would be very disappointed to see how far he's capable of falling. While the captain never got as bad as Warriors did, he also never really learned his lesson. He definitely admires Warriors for all the ways he's trying to shape his life into something better, but it's marred by disappointment that he's turned out so pathetic.

Warriors would think the captain was his nightmare brought to life. He would hate the captain on sight and would call him out on so much of his bullshit. But still, everything worked out for him. He got to save the day without fucking up his relationships with Spirit and Time. Warriors would be unspeakably jealous.

The child (who despite the title would be a full blown adult in this scenario) and Time would have the least number of differences between them. Time would have had a rough childhood whether or not everything fell apart during the war. Looking at them straight on, you would think they are exactly the same. They would even think they are the same.

But there's subtle differences that they only realize in each other after a while. Time is very secretive and purposefully keeps himself isolated from others. The child is warmer and tends to lean on others far more. Time has a helplessness streak he can't quite get rid of. The child is more stable. They would be more confused by their slight differences than disturbed

The engineer... oh boy. So in the Everything In the Past Was Happy AU, the engineer and the captain stay on good and close terms throughout the war. But that resulted in the engineer being the captain's outsourced moral compass. The engineer knows the captain is kinda a piece of shit, but he accepts that in part because he knows the captain wouldn't do that shit to him.

So here's a version of himself who lost that bet. The engineer isn't as shocked by that as you would think. The captain betraying him is disturbing, but not unthinkable. Again, it was always a possibility. But what does shake him is how bitter and angry Spirit is, and how Spirit has become the worse version of himself. The engineer is very comfortable believing he has a strict moral code, so to see any version of himself stoop to Warriors's low... that's rough.

Meanwhile, Spirit would be pissed off. In his mind, the engineer is the worst version of him. What do you mean you're his best friend? What do you mean that you let him get away with doing any of that bullshit on anyone?

So they hate each other.

What about my angst fix, anon? Where will I get my angst if not from the little grey people in my inbox??

NEW and UPDATED Coffee Bean HCs/Canon Era Background *Jazz hands*

-He can pick any lock and can remove doorknobs (canon thing, see the trading card)

-So what if he got Jack out bc hes the leader and left himself behind to deal with the punishment

-And thats when Jack escaped on the back of Roosevelt's carriage

-And If you pay attention to the OBC bootleg (https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=1--vGdYc04lIAha0xwn4fn08LoVH9_JEQ) (I haven't watched all of it yet, but I watched CtB, which is a big ensemble number), you don't see him anywhere

-And if he's still in the refuge, he likely met Crutchie (or re-met)

-So they're Bros(tm)

-I'm gonna HC him as 15

-He's pretty innocent

-He came up with his original nickname (Knobs) himself, because of the doorknob thing, not knowing it can also mean, well, dicks

-They let him keep it for a bit, but when he got back from the refuge they had to tell him what it meant

-So his new nickname was Coffee Bean because he has a caffeine problem

-I still ship beanuts (Barney Peanuts and Coffee Bean)

-ADHD child

-He got kicked out/had to run away because he cut off his hair (trans)

-He tried to reason it with the fact that it was August, but it was hopeless

-And then he got caught stealing food, and that's how he got in the refuge (the first time)

-He got out, became a newsie, met Jack, and then it was his second time in (Ft. Jack this time)

-And that's when the whole "letting the leader escape because he's more important" thing happened

-Modern AU he's one of the hockey bois

-Is pretty good at baking!! Helps Mush with that sometimes

-Is also on pretty good terms with Spot (And Modern AU are like, good friends)

-One time went on a pretty severe caffeine withdrawl and felt like literal death
