What if! AU!
What if... Baron 1898 was sold to Alton Towers by Efteling?
- She would be the newest Secret Weapon, probably Secret Weapon 10 OR 11.
- She would be placed in X-Sector, where Oblivion and The Smiler are also placed.
- Baron does NOT want to do ANYTHING with the Ministery of Joy, since she knows all of their schemes.
- In the Alton Towers lore, she uses her Witte Wieven singing voice to lure X-Sector workers into her mine. That voice is so beautiful, that X-Sector workers wonder where it comes from. When the workers are in the mine (or in this case, the drop tunnel), Baron brutally unalives them. This was mostly seen as a myth, but some guards managed to ACTUALLY escape. This also causes Baron to gain the nickname the "Mine Siren".
- Oblivion and Smiler are aware of X-Sector workers going missing, but they don't who did it. (In the Alton Towers lore.)
- Rita: Queen of Speed first would be envious and jealous of Baron's high theming.
- TH13TEEN will be Baron's bestie.

so a bit ago I had the silly idea of the Efteling engines somehow being dragged to sodor for a good ol little narrow gauge hangout [ft the culdee fell, cuz my gf loves them] so here's some random shenanigans from that scenario cuz its entertaining to me -since the concept of mountains and hills are not a thing here, I think the Efteling group would be absolutely starstruck at the idea of going up and down hills. -also also, them being baffled that the culdee group can CLIMB hills [aagje firmly believes this is magic] -since irl neefje can't actually drive, he's carried around on a wagon by the others so he doesn't miss out -the older engines hang out while culdee gets stuck with the younger ones -rheneas and moortje r gay now no one can stop me -the ghost engine trio is watching this go on in pure confusion -dieseltje and rusty, diesel solidarity -culdee got stuck babysitting all the non-grandpa engines [he suffers] -moortje is just complimenting everyone for their paint colours -while TATMR is not canon in this au, I find the idea of agape rambling about magic funny cuz I just imagine the sodor crew looking back at eachother like ''…..oh she doesn't know'' -then again, they don't think like wizard magic is real[there's a certain limit] but moortje tells them to play along cuz it stresses aagje out.

As teased a few weeks (?!) ago, a few additions to my "coasterverse":
The Alton towers inspired "Secret Weapons Special Strike Force" is part of the larger "Watchtower Society", a multi national secret organization with many departments that don't necessarily know what most of the others are doing. For example, the existence of other super powerd (roller coaster inspired) team that even Hex as part of SW administration didn't know about. This is the efteling team.
Much like my secret weapons and defunct holiday park team, was founded by a Vekoma, an older cousin of the Corkscrews twins,who is still the leader of the team (Python). Much like my other two Vekoma OCs, she's a slender and very swift female but to represent the phytons re-track, her right arm is robotic.
Another one that mirrors the SWs team, Baron 1898, is Orson's "twin" (I will not stop being cryptic about Orson's origin) with a different set of powers (I am strongly considering that he can turn incorporeal and fly, much like the white women in the rides story). He's much more confident and controlled then Orson but doesn't know about their origin either.
I don't have a lot more on the efteling inspired team yet other then them being much more of a coherent team as opposed to the thrown together bunch of crazies that's the secret weapons 😅
To finish things off, some thoughts on the remaining efteling coasters:
Max & Moritz will definitely not be included in this. I liked the coasters but I know the story it's themed after just too well...
Joris/George and the Dragon might not be included for a similar reason. Considering that the coasters are two dragons, making the character a dragon trainer seems a little too OP for my taste.
Vogel Rok has me stumped on character ideas so far, maybe I'll come up with something at some point but it's not likely.
The flying Dutchman is one I'd love to include but I am still lacking character ideas.. Ghost pirate would be much to obvious but maybe I'll go for water or weather powers (inspired by the 2nd and 3rd dark ride scenes of the coaster)
Bonus: after how important Hex became as a handler and administrator of the secret weapons and how much I loved Villa Volta, I might try to include them in a similar capacity, I just might not take much from the rides story (it's really not for me)
Anyway, ramble is over. I'm open for questions and inspirations, be it for Alton, Efteling or my overarching themepark inspired super hero universe

DnDads live show TILBURG!!
I made SO many notes during the absolute chaos of the QnA and show and here are some of my favorite parts / quotes!!:
At the start of the QnA, Anthony was lying on the floor next to the service dog at the front [1st image]
"If God loved us, humans would have blowholes" ~ Anthony
Beth described Anthony's sitting position during the QnA as: "like a broken spider" [3rd image]
"Glenn-splaining"
Glenn's Tilburg dad fact is that he, of course, has been to the Efteling (the most popular entertainment park in the Netherlands)
Ron's Tilburg dad fact is that he speaks a 2nd language which is the language of love and then proceeded to let Google Translate say "je moeder is sexy"
We got a 2nd inspiration because we knew the song Old McDonald had a farm lol
Glenn: "I want a gun. I roll for gun. 8" Anthony: "no guns." Either Darryl or Henry: "I roll for gun. 4" Anthony: "no guns." The audience made disagreeing noises. Anthony: "Do you really want to give the Americans guns?!"
Glenn still managed to get a gun.
We used our 1st inspiration to make the giant elephant cum
Steve.
"How much of semen is water? 2%? Just how I like my milk" ~ Will
Someone in the audience said "Cum gun" and was very close to one of the audience microphones, so Will went like "God?"
I've also heard someone say that the people of the venue thought almost no one was going to show up to this weird show called "dungeons and daddies" and were very surprised by the huge crowd
Beth showed off her card throwing skills and almost hit me in the face. I feel honored
And some pictures (there are better pictures of this show, but I'm only sharing the ones I made myself)

Mannetje van Willemstad
Last year I wrote a post about the belief in gnomes. Gnomes are an important aspect of Germanic spirituality. They are found all over Europe, in all the Germanic countries and in other cultures like the Celtic and Slavic culture. Gnomes are believed to be tiny beings who like to live close to humans, preferably inside a human's home.
Gnomes in most traditions act like guardian spirits who protect your house or family if you act kindly towards these guardian spirits. They can however also be quite malicious in some traditions. The Scandinavians know them as: the Nisse, Jólasveinar, Húsvaettir. The Dutch know them as: Kobolds, Dwergen, Aardmannetjes, Alvermannen, Aardgeesten and Kabouters, derived from the proto-Germanic words kubô-Walda meaning house/shed ruler/friend.
The English people have many names for different kinds of gnomes like the Hobs. The Hob is the main inspiration of the house elves you find in the Harry Potter books. To get rid of a Hob in your home, you had to present a piece of clothing to it, just like in the Harry Potter books. (I had to mention this as a huge Harry Potter nerd)
The German people know them as Kobolds, Kaukis and the Heinzelmännchen. Like the Dutch counterparts, these beings are helpful and sensitive but will leave you forever if you look for them. The Slavs know them as the: Šotek, Domovoj and Kikimora. The Kikimora can be spotted in the Witcher 3 game.
The Irish people know them as Leprechauns, Greeks as the Kallikantzaros, The Swiss as the Barbegazi, the French as the Nain Rouge and the Spanish/Portuguese know them as the Duende. As you can see, the belief in these little household guardians is widespread. In my previous post I made the suggestion that the belief in gnomes was brought to Europe by the Proto-indo European people but there is possible evidence that gnomes were already known by the ancient European people because of the 'Mannetje van Willemstad'.
Gnomes are especially important creatures in Dutch mythology. The belief in these little guys has been woven strongly into local folklore and every modern day Dutch person knows the Kabouter Spillebeen song. (the age of this song is unknown but it has been passed on by oral tradition so it could very well be a Pre-Christian song) During the construction of the Deltawerken, an important Dutch defense line against the sea, a construction worker found a very special little wooden man on 21st April 1966.
8 meters below sealevel, a little wooden statue was found which was deliberately placed between the roots of an oak tree. The little statue is about 12,5 centimeters tall. Its age was determined to be around 7500 years old with the help of c-14 dating. This makes the statue very unique.
Some historians believe that this little statue could be a portrayal of a gnome. The fact that it was deliberately placed between the roots of an oak tree suggests this was no mere toy but an object most likely used by a shaman or priest in a shamanic ritual. Keep in mind that this statue was buried around the year 5400BC, centuries before polytheistic religions were introduced in western Europe.
We know that hunter-and-gatherer tribes in Western and Northern Europe used rituals to bury their dead and that they had shamans who used objects like this little statue to keep in contact with the spirit world. If this statue is really a portrayal of a gnome, then the belief in gnomes is much older than previously believed. This statue was buried 2500 years before the arrival of the Proto-Indo-Europeans.
If you follow the continental Germanic pagan path, or basically any other European pagan path, don't just worship the Gods and your ancestors. Keep in mind that these little beings still guard your homes after thousands of years and you could try to show them your appreciation by giving them an offering like a small dish of milk.
You can visit the statue of Willemstad in the Rijksmuseum van Oudheden in Leiden, the Netherlands.
Here are pictures of: Mannetje van Willemstad, Kabouter Spillebeen painting, Gnomes in the Efteling, the Netherlands, picture taken by me,

After i humanized Baron 1898 (whom i headcanon as a she/her/they woman), i thought it was time for Python to be humanized! :>
So here is Python! Her actual name is Petra Velden and shes half human, half python. Her tail is droopy because it's magical. She and Byron (Baron 1898) are besties!
I decided to give her a pixie cut and a tomboy femme outfit. Yes, shes black because i said so. Plus, shes a bisexual kenyan dutch woman.
I made this with the monster girl creator by @Waffalet♡ so credits to them!

The 30th fairytale in Fairytale Forest, Efteling, is "The Six Swans".
----
A King gets lost in a forest, and an old woman helps him, on the condition that he marry her beautiful daughter. The King has a bad feeling about this but accepts anyway. He has six sons and a daughter from his first marriage, however, and fears that the children will be targeted by his new wife; so he sends them away and visits them in secret.
The new queen and now stepmother, who has learned witchcraft from her mother, finds out about her six stepsons and decides to get them out of her way. She sews six magical shirts and goes to the hidden castle where the children are hidden for safety, then tosses the shirts over the boys and transforms them into swans.
The brothers can only take their human forms for fifteen minutes every evening. They tell their still human younger sister that they have heard of a way to break such curses: she must make six shirts out of asters (or nettles, depending on the retelling) and can't make a sound or shed a tear for six years or the spell will never be broken. The girl agrees to do this, dedicating herself solely to gathering the asters and sewing in silence.

On one hand, I am trying to distance my secret weapon OCs from Alton Towers itself (going from "humanized coasters" to "inspired by rollercoasters") but on the other hand, I really want to do a bit more work on my extended "coaster verse" like more background on the SWs, their missions, their foundation, the sorry of the failed team created by Super Whirl... And maybe also add a certain other park... Because I've recently been to Efteling and WOW

Do I need a HRM degree to work in Human Resources?
"It is exceptionally suitable, pertinent and helpful to have a HRM degree, yet it is positively not unconquerable on the off chance that you don't have one. Different degrees are likewise possible that can interface well with the alluring HR calling.
For instance, consider Psychology or Business Administration degrees. It's more essential to have certain abilities and abilities than to have a particular degree. However, exhaustive and focused on instruction normally helps in learning and rehearsing the applicable abilities and abilities."

Christmas, boxing day
DECEMBER POSITIVITYtag someone who has become a personal friend to you.
i think i need to start this off with the wonderful, amazing, talented, showstopping, breathtaking @caediteos / @pravvus / @draconicn !!! also known as bubbles, also known as my partner in dutch shitposting crime. can you believe that one upon a lonely day i was lonely and had the great craving to go to the efteling, and i was foolish enough to post on here asking if someone who wanted to go along with me. turns out that was the best fucking idea i've ever had !! a day later we met up and i have to say that it was the best day i've ever had in my life. bubbles is a gem, an absolute pleasure to hang around with. i've never laughed so hard as i did that day. we're only a few hours away from one another, and it's great to know that such a lovely human being is only a train ride away, meeting bubbles restored my faith in humanity and the fact that we're going to see one another again and spend new years together is ??? surreal tbh and i've never looked forward to that day as much as this year.
tag someone whose writing style you love
since i'm already gushing about the dutch loves of my life, this one is another dutch darling i've actually met out in the real world ; the wonderful, kind, adorable, sweet, funny @proditora / @puerluunae !!! sometimes i forget that dana speaks dutch and i ?? am shooketh when i read her works. poets tremble in fear before her, playwriters bow at her feet. i can't believe how talented she is, her writing absolutely takes me away each time i get the pleasure to read it. it leaves me wanting more, always craving more and more words until she hits the post button on yet another work of art. she's the bep to my nel, and i can't wait for sixty years down the line, when we'll both put a turbo on our scooters and travel to the local cigarette shop on the corner ( but lets be real, why we do so, we'll still be crying about how much we admire the work of the other. )

The Power of Representation
This morning I opened youtube and even though had almost forgotten about it, it was hard to miss. The new Disney Descendants movie had it’s TV premiere yesterday evening. Although I wasn’t really invested in the making off, I’ve read the first two books and watched the first movie, about ten times, I think. So, my curiosity quickly got the best of me and I opened the first video clip I saw, which was clearly the final scene of the movie. (I’m not spoiling anyone, I guess, if I say that it ends happily ever after?)
Without realizing it my eyes were scanning the crowd. Of course, if I had been a few years younger I’d have a hopeless crush on Mitchell Hope, but I wasn’t looking for him. I was looking for the girl in the wheelchair, the unknown princess attending Auradon Prep and being involved in each and every group choreography. I just wanted to know if she was still there and the moment I found her, my lips curled up into a smile.
It’s weird. I have my illness ever since I was ten years old. I had better periods and worse periods. I’ve been in good place and bad places, but the illness was always there. I had to be careful during gym class, had to watch myself whenever I had fallen and then it went wrong because I misstepped while stepping out of the car. During most of those years I have never been looking for representation. It’s hard to say if it was because it was simply not there or because I didn’t feel part of the spoonie- and wheelchaircommunity yet.
But lately, during the last 5 years, that has changed. I’m part of the spoonie community. I’m part of the wheelchair community. It doesn’t matter that I don’t use the wheelchair on a daily basis. It doesn’t matter that nowadays I go to work without my crutch. My disability is the reason I work four days a week and not five. It’s the reason why I often have to say no when people invited me to do something. It’s the reason why I need quiet days on the couch with nothing but my laptop and Netflix. It’s the reason why I need a solid eight hours of sleep a day and why I’m terrified to go to the Efteling, because there is hardly anything left I’m still allowed or able to do.
And ever since I started to feel part of the community, I also noticed that there was so little representation of something that happens to so many people. 20% of the people in Europe lives with chronic pain. In the Netherlands 32% of the people lives with at least one chronic disease. (Either mental or physical or a combination of both) I don’t think it will be different anywhere in the world. And still you hardly see characters in wheelchair, with crutches, with mental illnesses, with illnesses in whatever form in general.
During the first few years I created my own representation. Of course, there were a few characters in wheelchairs, but most of them were cliché, were unoriginal, were following the image healthy people had (the sad, depressed girl that didn’t come outside anymore) or wanted to have (the happy, always smiling sidekick). So, one of the reasons why I love Matt Donovan more than I possibly should is that he has become my representation of a disability. He is human, only human, in a magical world with vampires, witches and werewolves. He’s only human in a world where every has superpowers, superspeed, superstrength or supersomething. And not once has he allowed it be his weakness. He didn’t allow himself to wish to be one of them. He even got as far as to chose the opposite side of the friends he had grown up with.
But it’s not the same thing. Symbolic representation and true representation don’t feel the same, are not the same. I realized that when I started watching the 100 and was introduced to Raven Reyes. During season 1 Raven Reyes gets shot in her back. The bullet hits a nerve and she ends up with a reduced functionality of her leg. On top of that she has pain, chronic pain. Her journey was everything I could have wished for. Raven got a surgery that was almost the same as the surgery I had (and my anesthesia wore off too, so that scream she screamed? I recognized that too) and a lot emotional phases she had to go through are part of my story too. But Raven isn’t just her disability. She’s smart. She safes the asses of her friends more than once. She’s a vital part of the gang and without her, let’s be honest, they’d all be dead.
It was Raven who inspired me to write my own fantasy book, a story about a girl in a wheelchair and the guardian angel who just wants to make her smile. It’s a story I used, years ago, to soothe myself to sleep when the pain kept me up. My book is in Wattpad. No one reads it. I hope it’s simply because people don’t know it exists. I hope it’s not because people don’t want to read about Melody, the girl in pain who is hopefully so much more than just a patient.
But ever since I found Raven, I became more and more aware of the lack of diversity in the media we consume. I repeat. 1 in 5 people have chronic pain. 1 in 3 people have a chronic disease. And yet, you hardly see characters with chronic pain or chronic diseases in series, in movies or books, unless the story is about their illness. Unless it’s usually the story of how they either die or get better.
Don’t get me wrong. I want those stories to be told. But I also want to feel like people like me can be more than sad hero stories about fighting an illness. I want characters like Kaz Brekker, from Leigh Bardugo’s “Six of Crows”, who walks with a cane, but who is also a master thief and one of the main characters. I want characters like Elide Lochan, from Sarah J. Maas’ Throne of Glass series, who’s leg is permanently damaged, but who is still traveling across an entire Kingdom to pledge her loyalty to her Queen. I want characters like Jaime Lannister, who lost his hand, but is still fighting a big and important war in Westeros. (If anyone has recommendations, hit me up!)
I understand that not every series has this possibility. It doesn’t need to be in every series anyway and I’m for sure not asking for disabled mains in everything I watch or read. Still, I’d be happy if there were more people with crutches and in wheelchairs in the background. I’d be happy with people like me just being there and being seen. I’m happy with Disney Descendants because they did exactly that. The princess in the wheelchair doesn’t have a name. I’m not sure if we even know who her parents are. (I think rumors say she’s Ariel’s daughter, which makes sense, but there are also rumors mentioning a lesser known Disney Mermaid as her mother.) I don’t care. She’s there. And that’s for the moment all I ask. That’s what I’d want to see in more modern media.

A Tag of Things
I was tagged by @sepp-graywolf to do a tag thingie yay! Thanks for tagging me I love doing these~!
Relationship status: Single pringle, though I am trying, and failing, to date myself. What can I say, I’m not the easiest to love.
Favorite color: Green, and I must say I really like deep rich purples and pastel lilacs as well.
Lipstick or chapstick: Isn’t lipstick just chapstick but with color? I don’t really use either, but if I’d had to choose I think lipstick.
Last song I listened to: I haven’t listened to anything in a while, but the song that’s currently stuck in my head is Si Veriash la Rana by Yasmin Levy, a song we use during bellydancing.
Last movie I watched: The Craft, I liked it. I don’t want to talk about the last movie I saw in the cinema though. It was horrible, not a bad movie, and not badly written, but it was just... Infuriating.
Top 3 TV shows: Ohboy, I have watched so many but not a lot of them stuck out to me to be honest. I guess I really liked Penny Dreadful, Misfits and Parks and Rec. Oh and if Cartoons count it’s definitely Steven Universe, Gravity Falls and Rick and Morty!
Top 3 characters: Papa Emeritus III, Robbie Rotten and Spike from Buffy the Vampire slayer. And because this is a male dominated list I’m also making a top 3 for women: Peridot from Steven Universe, Mabel Pines and Lucy from Dracula.
