(COUNT)DOWN TO DAWNTRAIL — day four: shadowbringers

atlas my old friend I found some people want to lend a hand carrying the weight of the world

#ALWAYS crying about d'alia and thancred but especially over their growth in SHB #ha ha what if we were both stubborn people who always try to be a pillar for others to lean on and hide behind a façade of strength #and both internalizing guilt over the same woman we love; sister to one and (former) lover to the other #because she died to save a world and now it's on us to finish what she started #except now the warrior of light/darkness is a heap on the floor and perilously close to transforming into a monster in her efforts #with all the brunt of responsibility to take on the light and fresh guilt of losing the battle with it on her shoulders #and all you can do is carry her half-conscious mumbling body down the mountain and swear she'll see her family (sid + rielle) again #because she never left you alone in all her needling to support *you* and you will return the support even this much #learning to rely on each other……..#(count)down to dawntrail #dani plays ffxiv #game: ffxiv #oc: d'alia liveq #ch: thancred waters #lavampira poses #ffxiv gpose #gposers #miqo'te #shadowbringers spoilers

more side character designs now to the tune of the Kil sisters

#original #ocs #character design #art #artists on tumblr #Ciara Kil #Naomi Kil #you know what's fucked up? never heard the name ciara until a few months ago. it's pronounced with a hard c. like keera. that's fucked up #anyway her name isn't pronounced like that cause i said so. it's a soft c and you pronounce the i. see-are-ah #hard-c ciara doesn't fit her. soft-c ciara does. it's fantasy i do what i want. i makea the rules #anyway. needless to say im in love with them both #naomi especially im sorryyy she's so intricate. she's got so much little shit going on I heart her crazy style #shes very good at Doing Things Right but it is an active choice to do so. unlike Ciara who is just really naturally personable and likeable #and so even when she's a bit unkempt or pushy. she gets away with a lot because she's so damn easy to like #wheras naomi is A Choice. she Is Right not because she's likeable but because she puts effort into it #shes obsessed with her image (who else does that sound like? almost like they're products of the same environment or something)#shes Neat and Put Together and very formal. very traditional #and not just because of that but not helped by it she's very distant. just enough to be noticeable but not enough to alienate her #because since she's so curated elsewhere. everyone she's distant to assume that they're just not privy to whatever else is going on #they assume that SOMEONE is. and that someone just isnt them because they arent good enough. naomi has a way of putting herself in a place #where she is an unattainable goal. and that's all in her pursuit of Doing Things Right #i could talk about her for hours also. fucking love naomi #naomi and ciara and julian are all fun because they're all. So Different. but similar enough that if you look closely youre like...#yeah. yeah those three all came from the same place and you can TELL #even ciara who is generally more easygoing than the others. you can still Tell sometimes #case in point: she's stubborn as hell and not afraid to pick a fight to get what she wants #love her.

I'll admit Pâté's introduction as a familiar was a lot, but I think that's the point. Laudna was able to bring him to life...but by the time she could do so, she had real friends - friends who traveled across the world to resurrect her. So now she's grappling with the fact that he's extremely useful, but when he's not scouting or helping her in combat, she can't just stop him from talking about how horny he is to random strangers anymore. His original purpose as a companion no longer makes sense, but the vestiges of it, some of which are, well, a lot, can get really grating. I think that's why she's come off recently as a little irritated with him.

It's funny, because earlier Laudna was portrayed very much (and said as much by Marisha) as having somewhat arrested development and ever since her resurrection she's sort of speedrun that and is acting much more like an adult. I don't think she's played with her dolls in the same way since, and I wonder if Pâté being real is part of it: she got the living puppet she'd dreamed of, but that means she doesn't totally control what he's saying anymore. I mean, he's a familiar, she can dismiss him or give him commands, and she still clearly cares about him, but bringing him to life was probably something that, years ago, she dreamed about. And now she has it, and it's got its drawbacks. And when you consider it in the context of her having the rest of Bells Hells to lean on, it's just something she's started to outgrow a bit.

It's also interesting because Laudna tends to swallow her irritation and perform for the audience - even many of the members of Bells Hells. This is a woman who, upon being brought back to life after several days trapped in the afterlife, tried to deflect the focus from herself as much as possible, and who as we're seeing now isn't letting herself cry no matter how scared and worried she feels. Letting herself be openly annoyed with aspects of Pâté is a small step, but it's an important one.

I also wonder - and this is more of a long-shot - if Pâté reflects some of Laudna's own worries. The thing is, he is more annoying now, but he's also more useful. I wonder if she asks herself if that's the case for her. It's not, but she has felt a bit like a burden as of late. Which in turn would complicate things with Pâté, if he serves as a reminder of some of her own (unfounded! but possibly very real to her!) insecurities.

#critical role #critical role spoilers #laudna #thinking about familiars like #the frumpkin parallels here are obvious - an emotional crutch that one day you might not need in the same way #but i'm also thinking about wbn and witch's familiars especially since laudna's colloquially called a witch/has witch aspects #and how the familiars for witches in wbn embody the witch's own more difficult traits (taro as stubborn and obnoxious/fox as argumentative)#and so the idea of Pâté as embodying not laudna's flaws but her fears about herself is an interesting twist on that

I really love hope is a thing with feathers and I also really LOVE the hope as a sewer rat poem too but I wish it was not explicity written as "well actually" against Dickinson asgvsjnk. The imagery is SO GOOD but this whole vibe of "my metaphor is better than your metaphor" kinda sours it for me

#i dont like the patronizing usage of ''Emily'' like theyre explaining something to a child #admittedly dickinson has been dead for over a century so its probably huge deal to talk about her flippantly in terms of poetry #this is just me personally. how i feel about it #i dont like her being namedropped like that #it has this energy of ''haha lemme school this bitch''#when the poem itself was never supposed to see the light of day. she never consented to it being published. girl was 5 years in the grave #it feels like making fun of somebodys diary #i also dont like how it kinda makes fun of dickinson's imagery of hope as something ''beautiful delicate'' thing #i always interpreted as it is told. a little bird. i pictured a fat fluffy thing like the ones i see outside my window #ive known them to be stubborn and mischivious #when we leave out seeds on the lawn the little ones are always bullied away by the crows and magpies #but they keep trying. theyll attempt to sneak over and peck away before the crows notice them #they ARE optimistic and resilient little things. tougher than they look #so i always found the metaphor apt #sewer rat also fits just as well. but i think it depends on the angle from how youre looking at it #so i dont like this vibe of ''it should be more RAW it should be UGLIER'' cuz even tho i love that style of writing #it just feels like unnecessary one-upping here #especially considering dickinson was severely depressed and tons of her poems reflect it #god forbid she dabble around with the occasional light hearted poem about seeing hope as a silly little bird #asgsjsnk sorry im not trying to make a statement or anything. ill delete this later probably

Holt’s vision was basically the first thing to go as she became infected with the corruption happening in Sierpinski-23 and it absolutely wrecks me

#I WISH I WAS BETTER AT STORYBOARDING AND DOING COMICS #bc I think about that moment between her and sieben #Holt’s eyes are visibly cloudy and the most she can make out is light/shadow and rough shapes #she can’t make out any of her old lover’s features and relies completely on her voice and touch #Holt can be pretty stubborn/prideful for a eule (the more I think about her she’s probably degraded some but is reliable/quiet enough abt it #but yeah she’s especially stubborn about Sieben. but at that moment she’s also so so scared and in pain #and she’s trying to have good humor she’s trying to be brave for Wanze at least #I think there’s a certain amount of vulnerability she can have with Sieben though due to their history #they both know Holt’s going to die #and so Holt doesn’t mind stopping the act for a second #if it means she can ask Sieben to hold her hand for a bit #and she does. it’s nice for a while.#Sieben doesn’t really want to look at Holt (her face is falling off she’s gross and seeing her like that also makes Sieben want to cry)#there is a lot of bitterness and regret between them and there’s a lot either of them could say #I think abt them and that particular moment A Lot #Wanze also :((((#Sieben only visits her earlier on but Wanze sees Holt as her mind starts to go #it’s hard for both of them. Holt doesn’t know who she is and can’t recognize her #so a lot of their time together is Wanze trying to comfort her and let her know everything’s alright #she can’t save her she’ll never be able to it’s not her fault #but Wanze will never stop blaming herself for it #she could’ve done more Holt did so so much and they were right. Wanze IS just a Fehler. a bug an error a mistake #she can’t help the person who thought the world of her. the person she loved more than anything #Anyway idk where I was going with this not anywhere in particular just Thinkin about them #blorbo tag #holt

god i fucking hate my dad

#he came home today from a bike trip he went on and he's been arguing with me about honeybee the whole fucking day #he keeps saying just let her out let her run around! every time i put her in her pen to nap #and he refuses to stop her from biting him #and he got mad at her for playing with his socks when she'd just been playing with mine and he threw them on the floor of the living room #which first of all stop being such a fucking slob #and second of all what the fuck did you expect to happen? it's a soft new toy on the floor where she spends most of her time. where all her #toys are. very similar to the two soft items she's allowed to play with (my socks)#she's fucking 3 months old she doesn't understand the difference between my socks and his socks #and i keep telling him i know what im doing i was doing all the research while he went to buttfuck nowhere on his midlife crisis motorcycle #but he just wont fucking listen to me #and hes like oh youre at that age where you think youre right about everything and are so stubborn like fuck you actually #first of all im stubborn about this because its a living breathing puppy and his actions will affect her behaviour as an adult #and bc i know what im fucking doing. ive been an animal person my entire life. i did all the research. i did this exact same thing with #parrots for five years.#and hes like you cant just put her in her pen every time shes being a dog like no i fucking dont. i only put her in her pen when it's time #for a nap and she's getting overtired. you can't just let her run around until she collapses bc for one she never fucking will #second that's only going to make her energy threshold higher and then she'll be absolutely impossible to handle #and i told him that and that i read that on like every professional dog training source i read #and he said that might be true or might not be #like it fucking is bitch omfg #and then he tried to one up me like um i actually raised you guys for a long time i know what im doing #like a child is not a fucking dog. also my mom raised us lets be fucking serious. and look how well adjusted i turned out #and he told me to relax and calm down like i wasnt even arguing with him but i sure as hell will now #like dont tell me to fucking relax. when has telling anyone to relax ever made anything better. especially a teenager. especially a (for #simplicity's sake) woman.#and i told him dont tell me to relax and he got all pissy and stormed off #like literally fuck you #im my fathers daughter. im just as stubborn as he is.#rambles

why is it that jade had to die to birth the baby

can warframes not... "create" new life force like humans can?

i'm sitting here ready with the string and tacks to somehow connect it to the sentients becoming barren when they traveled back to the origin system

#warframe spoilers #jade shadows #jade shadows spoilers #rift noises #rift lore #especially on the point of creating new life force this feeds almost perfectly into my own headcanons #about how yes they are powerful but they give up plasticity of pretty much everything in return #and in that sense jade breaks every law just by being full of love and very stubborn which is cool of her #she found the single solution and paid the price no one suspected she could or would

A week stuck as a kid-Gehenna (Evie)

Since Gehenna is where Evie (and Eden) have settled in Hell, this is where the impish Balam had sent her back in time to a ten year old. Evie:... Evie: Now this is a fucking headache. Of course since Leviathan had sent Foras to shadow Evie, he would be the first to notice her transformation. He had found her tending to her first daughter, Maia in Gehenna's devil creche. She looked far more ghostly, her normal tanned visage was on the lighter side now, and with her small devil horns poking through her blond hair. He says nothing but the now three year old demi-devil could see him clearly, even if Evie couldn't. Foras watches like a hawk as Evie cleaned up after her rambunctious spawn, light on her feet and even in this younger form able to keep up. Though she is surprised to see Maia stare at nothin like an owl. The other attendants of the creche arrive and while they question about her current form, she assumes it was an angels doing. Evie: I'm fine. Nothings all that wrong. Devil 1: Do you wish for us to tell Lord Satan? Evie: You might as well, I haven't seen him. When Leviathan hears of this, he is quick to check what happened, but Balam is conveniantly not answering his calls. If he was one of his men he would hang- but alas he is of Nifliem. Belphegor thinks its funny that Leviathan cares enough for Evie that he allows Balam to continue his little game. The chatter in the King Group Chat alerts Satan before the devils could tell him and he comes back to Gehenna to protect his wife and daughter. Satan: Eve? Evie: Sitting at her desk, barely looking over her normal adult desk, furiously finishing her university papers that seem to have made it to her in hell Did the others tell you? Satan: yes. Why aren't you more weirded out? Evie: Well you get used to messed up things happening here. I just assumed its someones doin She said nonchalantly Satan: ... Well it could be worse? Evie: Yeah, it could be. Satan:... You are something else. Evie: Thanks. But really I'm fine. Maia's sleeping and the twins are napping. Its all good Satan: Having a mild panic attack. Evie: Stops working and helps wrapping Satan in a blanket with a bottle of water for hydration.

#what in hell is bad #whb #地獄のどこが悪い #prettybusy what in “hell” is bad?#whatinhellisbad #evelyn #whb satan #whb leviathan #whb foras #foras is freaked out #how Evie looks so angelic #yet she still has that stubborn independant attitude towards everything #especially when shes dealing with her children #and her university papers #shes not going to lose out on her education even if shes in hell #shes a conjoint in Ethnobiology and Astrobiology

i need fgo to acknowledge servants horses more

#achilles isn't enough i need to know how each servant is around their horse(s)#i think that duryodhana has two main steeds and would have a hard time controlling them for when he's being petulant #highest ranking older mare (12-16) + her offspring (4-8) the older one would have a stubborn and calm temperament who doesn't respect duryo #and her daughter would have the same kind of chill but would be more playful and curious. dur is talking with his brothers & she trots over #starts nuzzling and sniffing his clothes because she's bored. duryo keeps talking but starts petting her #i also think duryodhana has instinctively good balance and he's good at multitasking so showmanship-like riding comes to him easily #but he's shit at all horse maintenance. especially hoof care; he's convinced his girls are going to kick him and doesn't want to even try i #but he wants good care for his horses so he watches over the servants tending to them. bossy yet incompetent duryodhana 🥰#we know georgios is a good owner but i think he likes rein maintenance & spends a fair amount of time making sure bayards armor is spotless #lalter gives out snacks more easily than her counterpart (going after the wild hunt takes energy! llamrei is a good girl!)#percival is great with horses in general and he enjoys taking care of them and will help out any other knights if they're having trouble #ashvatthaman is (un)surprisingly really good with young stallions. he's not afraid of them at all and will scold them for their mean deeds #horse tries to eat his clothes or nibble his hair and he's like. oi stop that you bastard. and the horse listens (will eat his hair later)#prince of lanling is very thorough with horses getting enough feed and water and will make sure they're well rested #arjuna is like. the main character of a horse movie. he's emotionally sensitive with them & bonds with horses easily (who sense his worries #works really really hard to be good at riding and wants to leave no room for mistakes. really aware of his posture at all times #we had dogy event please give me hors event... horses cute and underrated<-most biased man talking

Concept: Ben 10 Alien Force AU where everything is the same except Kevin is just insanely passive-aggressive towards Ben for the entire duration of the series

“No worries Tennyson, I buried the hatchet ages ago! That bad blood between us? Water under the bridge! I mean, it’s not like you got me stranded in a prison dimension for five years and never bothered to try and rescue me or even check up on me or anything like that! Of course I’ll help you save your grandpa! After all, what kind of hero just leaves someone for dead in the hands of vicious aliens that proceed to inflict them with severe psychological damage that will take decades to fully heal?”

I feel as though that would be a whole lot more realistic of a thing to happen, especially as the Tennysons realistically react to Kevin's passive-aggression with their own Tennyson brand passive-aggressiveness, though it might not be the most enjoyable trio to watch, which would be basically the complete opposite of the previous trio of Ben, Gwen, and Grandpa Max-

Ben and Kevin would have more personal beef (something about stealing a way too high security unreleased but already boxed game vs making two trains crash into each other for free money), but Gwen never particularly liked Kevin in the first place way back when, so even if Ben and Kevin settle their differences with admitting what they had actually done wrong (probably fighting over the more petty shit or arguing about the worse shit they did), Gwen doesn't have much basis to forgive Kevin because ultimately she did not get involved. Which I mean I don't think would be that great to watch nor that great to create a team around, especially in the earlier more mystery focused side of AF-

And this is the obligatory mention of @kariachi for introducing the idea of the Ben, Gwen, and Argit trio- you can have passive-aggressive Kevin (and the Tennyson's appropriate responses to him) all you like if Kevin takes Argit's role and Argit fills in that missing main trio slot in his stead. Depending on where and how he's introduced you could totally have a fake-out trio of the Tennysons and Magister Labrid, you know, with the assumption that someone's filling out Max's 'experienced plumber' slot. Not sure how convincing that might be but oops, I did a little ramble lmao-

#ask #anonymous #kevin levin #ben tennyson #gwen tennyson #ben 10 #don't mind me just thinking about argit- not a whole lot but it's something #i do realise that i kinda maybe vaguely forget to think about any form of team ben lmao #since a lot of my first thoughts about ben 10 are either my petrosapien ocs (they grow in number)#or the andromeda 5 of whom i like to pair with xenobiology and other worldbuilding #so i guess i'm sorry for going off topic but lmao if you've sent in an ask to ME i bet you already know that i ramble #gwen's stubborn and would probably either never come around to kevin on her team or take too much time to do so #and ben might be ultimately more forgiving as a teen than as a 10y/o but kevin's kevin #there might be a little sympathy there for the general 'sorry you got amalgamed that one time'#but like kevin dragged his 'not actually known' name through the dirt when it was just 1 to 1 transformations #let alone actually working with/for vilgax that one time #not that kevin doesn't have his own beefs of course- the null void is a horrible place to send folks as punishment #especially a distressed 11y/o who's not very human at the moment if he ever was (depends what floats your boat)#ultimately... though realistic- probably not the best working environment for a highbreed investigation

sometimes, in the midst of all of her dynamics that foster healing, i forget that seph was literally built from the ground up for toxic relationships. my god. (putting my almost-tags under the cut for cw reasons!)

#>> OUT.#toxic relationship cw #abuse discussion cw #exploring the Worse side of izuseph had me thinkin about it #as well as. yk. gestures to canon sukuna and whatever the fuck is going on with them #when i started this blog i was fully expecting any ships seph DID develop to be fucked up and toxic honestly. LMAO #bc of how firmly she pushes good people away; especially in present-day verses after her longass disappearance #but yalls muses were so stubborn about reaching past the thorns and teeth and traps and pulling out the curled-up little thing underneath #it was just. oops all soft #now we're getting into my freak era so things are getting darker <3 BUT MAN!!!!! UVE ALSO BEEN MAKING ME CRYYYYYY IN THE BEST WAYYYY

Me: I need to be very careful with Scream Queen's costume design because I need it to be very clear that she's working on a tight budget and is very inexperienced compared to other vigilantes in Gotham. It needs to actually be practical as well as intimidating.

Also Me: I should put claws on her gloves because it looks dope as fuck and it'd be really cool for climbing on buildings and shit. No, I absolutely won't think about the logistics about where she managed to afford a strong enough material to let her actually climb walls.

#shiversverse #oc: clarice keeny #yeah i've mentioned it before but Clarice goes vigilante #she's a very loose adaptation of Scream Queen from BATB #i should specify that she's a VERY loose adaptation in that she mostly just shares the name and the association with Scarecrow #i'm going with her role being the character foil/rival for stephanie brown because they share a lot of similar story beats #both being relatives of supervillains who started their vigilante careers in order to stop said relatives #both having a strained relationship with the rest of the Batfamily and especially Batman himself #both being extremely stubborn blonde teenage girls #they mostly differ due to having very different temperaments and feelings towards their supervillain relatives #stephanie and cluemaster have a VERY hostile relationship considering the neglect and abuse he put her through #whereas clarice's hostility towards scarecrow is due to being left in foster care #as well as her being ostracized by others due to being related to him (as well as being visibly mentally ill)#her feelings towards him also tend to vary between extreme hostility and a longing for his approval #clarice is also VERY pessimistic towards people and tends to have long periods of hopelessness #whereas stephanie is on the more optimistic side

John, a bitter widower, finds himself to be the caretaker of a lighthouse— which the residents of the coastal town have nicknamed “White Star”, due to its luminosity and habitual scintillation.

#babylon 5 #b5 #for once it's not an incorrect quote #lighthouse au #source: @therighthandofvengeance #moodboard monday #babylon 5 moodboard #john sheridan #fyi: the dog in the top left image is a Great Pyrenees #aka: as stubborn as it is big and fluffy #the dog’s name is Beckett because sometimes its bark sounds like “Boims! Boims!”#when Susan (a lifeguard) introduces herself to John— Beckett takes to her immediately (thus immediately proving Ivanova’s trustworthiness)#but also:#the heiress taking her yacht out always gets John’s attention: Miss Mir #he wants to introduce himself but doesn’t want to meet a new person (especially when Beckett refuses to leave his side around her)#of course Beckett is only staying there because of a need to try to comfort John #but still #it’s a bit of a catch-22

Okay so hear me out.

What if? The Riley's just lived? They survived and Ghost still has his family? What if man.

Anyways here's the them because I absolutely needed to give him a little bit of comfort

(I didn't 100% go with canon design wise, but considering they're alive in the first place I feel as if it's obvious canon is silly 🧎‍♂️)

They're all extremely close and Ghost visits as often as he can, his nephew demands it and who is he to say no to him.

I live for Ghost being a family man who just gushes about how cool his Sister-in-law is while simultaneously just not mentioning the fact he HAS a family.

Just look at them living their lives happily,,
