#dandelion’s family

[arsenicjellyfish]

Decided to draw my oc Dandelion and their family! Harper is their dad, a hard-working fisherman who enjoys tinkering with machinery. Their mom Azalea (who’s colour palette and markings need a bit more work) is a kind but competitive person who works in a bakery and likes to dabble in woodwork with her husband.

Dahlia, Dandelion’s older sister, may seem intimidating at first but she’s one of the chillest people you’ll meet… as long as you’re not in her way. She’s a determined spirit who inherited her mother’s competitiveness and enjoys singing and making music. She also prefers to keep to herself. Daffodil, the youngest sister, is a rambunctious ball of energy who likes to keep herself busy.

Finally, Dandelion themself! A down-to-earth, happy-go-lucky, go-with-the-flow kind of guy. They’re all about having a good time and being there for their friends. They love tea and swimming, and is generally down for doing anything.

And I've heard of a love that comes once in a lifetime And I'm pretty sure that you are that love of mine

Prompt 110

Okay so we all know about how Regis told Dandelion in the books that his blood smelled nice, which was most likely about how none of his wounds were infected and whatnot, but what if it wasn't? What if Jaskier has a special type of blood, whether magically made, cursed, or perhaps just o- or some shit lmfao Either way, Vampires LOVE this shit. Their favorite delicacy when they choose to partake. This becomes a problem when Jaskier has a hurt foot and Geralt takes him to a medic. A vampire, whether the medic, the medic's assistant, or just someone lurking outside who caught a whiff of the blood, is like "Jackpot!" and tells all his little vampire friends, and now they're hosting a big feast just to drain this guy. But it's such a delicacy, the vampire decides maybe they should only drain him a little, so he can keep the human around, so the human can regain his blood, and they can drink from him AGAIN! Oh yes, marvelous! He throws the best parties! Jaskier wakes up with a horrible headache. He's dressed incredibly fancy, though he doesn't think these are his clothes- Speaking of which, he also doesn't think this is his room at the inn... Is he- Is he fucking chained to a dining table? "Let the buffet begin! I hope you're thirsty my friends!~" Fuck. He hopes Geralt gets here quick-

dandelion’s incredible reluctance, and near-fright, to mention kaer morhen by name is somewhat endearing to me. we as the fandom throw around the name so easily, and it’s also home for geralt and ciri, so its name doesn’t carry so much weight.

but in dandelion’s case, it makes sense to fear mentioning it, for it was the site of the massacre… best to not let anyone hear its name… it’s kind of nice to think that dandelion has a degree of self-awareness, when something is as important as this

and also, some part of me just thinks that dandelion with his vivid imagination listened to geralt offhandedly talk about his childhood here or there, and… whatever were mundane facts or sepia-tinted friendly memories for geralt, made dandelion’s expression drop and his innards twist. so he conceives of kaer morhen not just as “the witcher’s keep in the mountains of kaedwen” but “that place where my best friend endured child abuse for eighteen years”

thinking about the Mondstadt Siblings. they don't even call themselves that the people of Mondstadt just saw that they were all ride or die for each other and started calling them that. local rabbit lesbian and her six collected siblings (Bennett, Bianca, Kaeya, Diluc, Jean, and Barbara).

if you mess with one Mondstadt sibling, you mess with all seven Mondstadt siblings.

Randomly Selected Botanical Terms: Phyllaries

Flowers in the aster family have one of the most recognizable shapes in botany – a circle with a series of petals surrounding it. If you were asked to draw a flower, there is a good chance your drawing would look something like a sunflower, a daisy, a cosmos, or an aster. It’s one of the most basic flower shapes, and yet it isn’t a single flower; it’s a pseudanthium – a false flower. This is…

Introducing Midnight Aurora’s Family!!!

Okay, so I touched upon these guys before slightly, but I never really delved much into it, so here we are.

First is Glitter Star! She is Midnight Aurora’s birth mother, and the one who encouraged Midnight’s interest in magic. While Glitter Star did attend Celestia’s school, she was an average magic wielded overall. She took more to the stars, learning the constellations and patterns, and even teaching them to Midnight when she was a filly. She married Frostmoon after she dropped out of Celestia’s school, Frostmoon helping her realize her love for the stars and the sky. It was actually this interest in the sky that drew Frostmoon to her, as he was a Pegasus working for Cloudsdale to help maintain the skies of Canterlot. While Glitter was unable to actually change the sky herself, Frostmoon took great pride in impressing her by making special heart patterns out of clouds just for her, or even clearing away rain or snow to make sure she was safe. He almost got fired for this a good handful of times. Glitter loved her family dearly, and there was nothing more important to her than her husband and daughter.

That was, until her passing.

Glitter Star passed due to a disease that was unable to be treated in time. Midnight was a teenager at this time, and struggled greatly with her death, like her father. Frostmoon even had to ask his job for extra vacation days to help Midnight adjust to life without her mother.

Years passed, and Frostmoon did his best to help Midnight get into the school she wanted and become the pony she’d dreamed of being.

The second pony is Frostmoon himself, if you couldn’t tell. He loves his family very much, and still misses Glitter Star very dearly. But time passes. Life goes on. And Frostmoon eventually met someone else once he went back to working at Cloudsdale. A lovely mare named Butterfly (the third pony pictured above.)

Butterfly was a very sweet and excited Pegasus who took pride in her job and did her very best. She met Frostmoon while working as a secretary for the Cloudsdale Rainbow Factory. She spends her spare time collecting insects and admiring them before setting them back into the wild. Inside her house, there are plenty of pictures of the bugs she’s caught. The two fell in love after spending time together, and eventually, Frostmoon remarried.

Midnight Aurora was upset by this, and felt that Frostmoon was cheating on Glitter Star. Despite the amount of time that has passed, she thinks that Frostmoon still moved on too early, and refuses to accept Butterfly into her life. And shortly after Dandelion (the fourth pony) was born, Midnight moved out of Frostmoon’s house and into her own place. Midnight Aurora has not met Dandelion face to face, but knows of her existence and chooses to ignore them altogether.

Dandelion was born roughly a year after Butterfly and Frostmoon were married. She’s taken a great interest in gardening and insects like her mother, but she also wishes to someday meet Midnight Aurora. While Frostmoon has been taking wonderful care of Dandelion and ensuring she is not forgotten or treated like second place, Frostmoon still worries about Aurora and misses her very dearly. Dandelion hopes to one day meet her half-sister and convince her to see their father again.

'Everyone has some kind of debt,' replied Eithné. 'Such is life, Maria Barring. Debts and liabilities, obligations, gratitude, payments... Doing something for someone. Or perhaps for ourselves? For in fact we are always paying ourselves back and not someone else. Each time we are indebted we pay off the debt to ourselves. In each of us lies a creditor and a debtor at once and the art is for the reckoning to tally inside us. We enter the world as a minute part of the life we are given, and from then on we are ever paying off debts. To ourselves. For ourselves. In order for the final reckoning to tally.’

'Unbridled altruism is a huge vice of mine,' he explained. 'I simply have to do good. I am a sensible dwarf, however, and know that I'm unable to do everyone good. Were I to attempt to be good to everyone, to the entire world and to all the creatures living in it, it would be a drop of fresh water in the salt sea. In other words, a wasted effort. Thus, I decided to do specific good; good which would not go to waste. I'm good to myself and my immediate circle.'

‘A sense of guilt, as well as the need for expiation, for a cleansing baptism of fire, aren't things you can claim an exclusive right to. Life differs from banking because it has debts which are paid off by running up debts with others.'

‘For a war is raging, and disinformation is a weapon whose blade must always be kept sharp.’

‘Some say everything in the world — everything, with no exception — has a price. It's not true. There are things with no price, things that are priceless. But you realise it belatedly: when you lose them, you lose them forever and nothing can get them back for you.‘

Geralt and Yennifer: *arguing*

Geralt: hey Jaskier, isn’t it true that SpongeBob lives in a cucumber?

Jaskier: what?

Yennifer: for the last time, he lives in a fucking pineapple!

Geralt: no, it’s not. 🎵who lives in a cucumber under the sea? SpongeBob SquarePants🎶

Jaskier, internally: ah. Geralt is fucking with the witch. Excellent!

Jaskier: it’s a cucumber.

Yennifer: *looking betrayed and confused*

Geralt: Ha! Told you!

Yennifer: it fucking isn’t!

Jaskier: no. Geralt is right. It’s a cucumber. Correct number of syllables for the song and I can assure you, it’s a cucumber.

Yennifer: *stomps off*

Geralt: *leaves triumphant*

Jaskier: *goes back to his book and forgets all about it*

(Jaskier, Geralt, and Ciri are watching TV and SpongeBob comes on)

Geralt, angry: you lied to me!

Jaskier: um… about what?

Geralt: ABOUT THE CUCUMBER!

Jaskier: …

Jaskier: darling, I really don’t know what you’re talking about.

Geralt: you told me and Yen that SpongeBob lived in a cucumber under the sea. You lied!

Jaskier: *suddenly remembering and realizing what’s happened*

Jaskier: *laughs*

Geralt: hmm!

Jaskier: you… haha! You were serious?! Bahahaha!!!

Geralt: of course I was serious!

Jaskier: I thought you were fucking with Yen!!! Bahahahaha!

Geralt: hmm?

Jaskier: and I… hahaha!! I thought I was helping you with the prank!!!! *dissolves into a laughing puddle*

Geralt: I was asking for your help and you thought I was joking?

Jaskier: Everyone knows it’s a pineapple, Geralt! Except maybe Yennifer for being too old and stuffy to have watched SpongeBob!

Geralt: hmmm!

Jaskier: I assumed you knew because Ciri and I watch it and you’re there. But no! You thought it was a cucumber!

Ciri: Shhhh!!!!

Geralt: *storms away*

Jaskier: *realizes how mad Geralt is*

Jaskier: Geralt. Geralt, I’m sorry. I truly didn’t mean to mislead you! Come back!
