glamtober #08 - ilsabard

this glam has been on my mind since i started leveling sage, and i just got the ravel keeper's wings to finish the look! i love how breezy and vibrant it feels. io's time in thavnair means so much to her, and this chest piece is one she'd treasure.

items used:

head: emperor's new hat body: palaka vest of healing (blood red) hands: isle vacationer's wrist torques (snow white | N/A) legs: astral silk bottoms of healing (snow white) feet: isle shepherd's sandals (undyed)

crazy to imagine tails building inhibitor rings for sonic after he and shadow get back from the void. obviously they wouldn't be exactly the same since they'd be for paradox prism energy instead of chaos energy, but oh my god he would haaate them

at some point in disability you stop wanting to "get better" and this is just really hard for able bodied people to understand for some reason

I think everyone's gotten theirs by now, so please enjoy the linocut I designed, carved, printed on cards and sent out for February's International Correspondence Writing Month :)

[Image Description 1: A black linocut print featuring a moth with sparkling star eye patterns on its six wings and surrounded by a starburst of lines and small stars. End description.]

Some process and more details under the cut - including the other stamps I carved to go on the envelopes and inside the cards!

Please enjoy my chaotic printing station and my beautiful stack of shelves, baskets, and my baking racks being used as a place for all the prints to dry (well, most of them)

I also carved individual stamps of the starry eyeballs based off the eye shapes in the moth's wings. I love love love love how they came out, and also had a lot of fun with the variety of little star stamps I made to embellish things with.

[Image ID 2: A photo of my kitchen table overtaken by a precarious stack of wire shelves and racks that are covered in drying prints. In front of the drying prints is my printing surface where the ink, roller, and the linocut are visible. Image ID 3-4: Photos of the envelopes used to send the cards, they've got stars stamped on the front and a large starry eye stamped on the flap. The eyes are two different variations of a similar design and match the eye pattern on the moth's wings. End Description.]

For funsies, please also enjoy how gorgeous this design came out on brown paper

Thor, about Loki: I can fix him Tony: We're all hoping for that. But the attempts don't seem to be working Thor: As long as we keep trying-- Tony: If our careers fail as a villain redemption crew can we go back to trying to imprison him Thor: no.

can i ask why ur getting the surgery? /gen curious /no hate

i am getting a bi(lateral)salp(ingectomy) bc i never want to be pregnant or be a parent!

Even if i do change my mind later about the parent thing (not super likely but things can change, sure) theres noooo shortage of single parents lmao

And even if I never End Up In The Circumstance(s) Where I COULD Become Pregnant in my life, I'd want the peace of mind anyway...

I've always felt disgusted that this is something my body is capable of. I want it to be MY body and not a site and vessel for potential tragedy in any direction. And I want it to be something permanent and not dependent on access to services/medicines or even laws!!! Dis is a gender affirming surgery for me honestly...

Reflecting on it and I think the coin plan would've bought them even less time than the "Aaravos' mortal form is destroyed and he returns in seven years" tbh. Claudia is familiar with the coins as both her father's daughter and upon seeing the trapped elves within. She also knows the exact spell in which to restore the body and how to perform it (with love) that nobody else explicitly knows, and most of the other mages on team good guy are dead. Rather than knowing she had to wait seven years, Claudia would've been able to escape Lux Aurea (most likely) and then immediately setting about figuring out where the last quasar diamond was. From there, it would've been a matter of stealing it + the coin (which would possibly be in the same location)...

Now, if Claudia didn't escape Lux Aurea and/or died, or they found a way to destroy the last quasar diamond, that'd be another matter. But barring those two things, I could see Claudia getting Aaravos out of that coin within 2-3 years, nevermind seven

guess who's managed to solve a historicity/continuity problem by (checks notes) inventing another relative for jamie who gets killed off

Kind of want to see a panel or fic where the League shows up and helps Aquaman and Mera get a pod of stranded whales back into the sea. Between their powers and Aquaman's abilities, the whales actually make it to sea and survive.

thoughts on Ginny and Harry as a couple?

There are a lot of people who find their romance in HBP forced. I don't think it's forced so much as underwritten, and the books don't get the chemistry quite right (though the movies certainly don't, either). There's potential, but they just don't get enough actual scenes of substance (besides Harry thinking she's pretty or feeling jealous of Dean) for a lot of readers to buy that they're not only in love, but deeply enough in love to break up, get back together, and wind up married.

That's not to say I don't see the appeal. There's a very cool scene in Book 5 where Harry's doing a woe-is-me-Chosen-One act, and Ginny effortlessly puts him in his place about it by reminding him that she was possessed by Voldemort at eleven, which is a rare glimpse into her character and also a great synecdoche for their relationship — Ginny is a grounding presence who, like Ron and Hermione, isn't going to be awed by his past adventures because she knew him before they happened. In that respect, Ginny's probably one of the few women Harry could feasibly wind up with, because he only ever seems comfortable around people (let alone girls) who can see past the Chosen-One schtick and treat him like a normo (see: Ron, Hermione, the Weasleys, Luna, Hagrid). True to type, he doesn't get interested in Ginny at all until she's ditched her celebrity crush and ceased to view him as an idol, because in his heart of hearts, Harry wants to be a normal boy, and it's stressed over and over that part of what he likes about his relationship with Ginny is how normal it feels. He kind of has a horribly supercharged version the celebrity dating problem: after the Battle of Hogwarts, anyone he meets is going to know him first as Harry Potter, Chosen One, Boy Who Lived, and Actually Fucking Resurrected Messiah of the Wizarding World, which is... I mean, it's possible that there are witches out there who could get over that, but Harry's not an extroverted guy, and I'm not sure how he'd go about finding them. Ginny's the one who's been there since the beginning, doesn't need anything about him or his past explained to her, and actually likes him for who he is.

When you look at it that way, it's not surprising he married his high school girlfriend. She's one of the few people still alive who doesn't see him as a demigod.

so this video is currently sitting on my YouTube homepage, and i cannot help but be like

here’s an idea: what if the “anti-aging” device that kuusuke made was originally an attempt at finding a way to slow down or even reverse the uncontrollable growth of kusuo’s powers?

AVA-M Early Bird: Regeneration Potions

To be clear:

TSC lied to Blue about their chronic pain issues by saying it’s only muscle pain, simply because they don’t want their friends to worry about them.

TSC said ow because they jerked their arm up too fast and it worsens the pain.

And I’m borrowing the idea of regeneration potions being a temporary solution for chronic pain from @tulipsempai.

In the second picture, Blue was explaining to TSC on how to make regeneration potions.

Just a Pride Month pic I had really wanted to do with them!! I saw that shirt and knew I needed to put him in it lol These are just based on my HCs for Jayce and Lucy, but I'd like to think they aren't the only ones!

It’s a modern fantasy setting where magic is hidden and whatever, but I honestly don’t think anybody at a NYC Pride would give a shit about a demon showing up lol They’d probably be thrilled even.

I am renting out my body to any demons, ghosts, and ghouls who would be interested in human possession for the duration of this summer. Serious inquiries only.
