Happy birthday to noted mountaineer Aleister Crowley! Here he is during an expedition to K2 in 1902:

"On the journey, Crowley was afflicted with influenza, malaria, and snow blindness, and other expedition members were also struck with illness. They reached an altitude of 20,000 feet (6,100 m) before turning back."

Everyone is out here yelling at Aemond about manhandling Helaena as if every younger brother hasn’t done the same to his older sister since the dawn of time. I’m only surprised that Helaena didn’t bite him to get her arm free. She did follow it up with “guess what, you’re gonna die!” though so that seemed in line with the whole situation.

how are the Bad Choices effecting you this fine day, cheeto? XD

I've written like 5,000 words of brutal Wild whump, and now I have to go through and edit it. Like, Dead Dove levels of whump, perhaps. But I'm eating a muffin, and it's pretty good, so I have that going for me.

HELLO 👋 hope you don't mind me asking but I'm still new to the journey to the south thing, so Is Journey to the south canon or related to the journey to the west novel?

Hi! SO okay anon take this with a grain of salt because I have both never read Journey to the South ( I don’t think there’s ever actually been an English translation of it) & am an amateur scholar on JTTW related matters at best. So that said, and if my memory is correct, Journey to the South is a work that was written in the 1700s, is set some time after Journey to the West, and focuses on different reincarnations of an immortal named Huaguang. And as part of those adventures he gets into some shit with the Monkey King after Huaguang takes on Sun Wukong’s form & steals some immortal peaches. After this our favorite monkey is given some time to find out who the real culprit is, and that’s where we have a very brief mention of his sons in Jidu and Luohou & the introduction of his large and powerful daughter Yuebei Xing, who both accompanies her father in the search of the actual thief & who turns out to be capable of cursing even immortals to death through the use of a magic skull, as Huaguang soon discovers. @journeytothewestresearch provides a much more detailed summary about the Monkey King & assorted children parts of Journey to the South, and based off of his description I guess you could think of this text as mostly being its own thing but which does have a few sections where it’s kind of a sequel to Xiyouji, and itis in fact one of the older works to give Sun Wukong fanbabies lol. @antidotefortheawkward I believe has read at least some of the text as well, and he’s created some really lovely art starring JTTS’s simian family.

i never realized you were getting those rude comments I'm so sorry, ao3 has a newer feature that makes you able to block certain accounts from commenting, so if you're getting multiple comments from the same person you can block them

awwww I promise I’m just being sensitive & over dramatic because they really aren’t that bad! Im sure people get much worse & I truly get so many positive compliments I shouldn’t dwell on the handful I have gotten that I deem to be rude.

I did learn about that new feature on ao3!! It’s pretty cool they let you do that!

Thanks anon <3

Oh yeah, I have a question about the Cookies of Darkness, specifically who was part of the Cookies of Darkness before Kingdom? Because it seems like most of them only came in Kingdom

Was there even a Cookies of Darkness, or were there just bad guys who weren’t particularly tied with one another?

I’m just curious

My geology class is the most chaotic class I've done so far. There's no pattern to the labs and quizzes we do, they're all random and there's no warning of when there will be one or when it is due. Every week in the moodle are like 8-12 videos/articles/documents to look at but there's always a couple of them that aren't for this class at all and I have no idea why they're there. I can't even figure out what the main point is we're supposed to be learning each week. There's a textbook but he never tells us what we're supposed to be reading from it and it looks like not even a real textbook but like its random geology rambling written by some guy.

My brother moved back home so my posts are gonna be a lot less thoughtful (if possible) and a lot more of… this.

here's a fun question for my favourite artist . do you have any fic recs? tntduo in particular but any really 👁️

my attention span and adhd make it very hard for me to read anything- i read devil town because of art drawn for it and my interest in cults / abductions! im sorry i am

a fun fact is that in super robot wars J there is a secret unit for Hades Project Zeorymer; it is the most busted unit in the game if not the franchise and it is technically not canon to the source material but I believe it is implied

essentially you are fufilling the goal of the villain in zeorymer to power up zeorymer into Apocalypse Robot

zeorymer a very odd pick for the series and it was a complaint I heard a lot

why is the devil robot here and buddying up with everyone

at any rate J is fan translated and has a fun cast honestly I reccomend it

good originals too

lotta like “one time appearences” in that game

My partner has explained the Ada Wong/Leon S. Kennedy dynamic to me a bit, since I don't play the Resident Evil games (too stress). And I think she might have a very, "That Chinese lady who makes the hilarious videos where she has fancy clothes and a giant hat and gets way too deep into situations because SHE thinks she's rich and fancy, but...she is not...and she has a WALK like you wouldn't believe," vibe in that pair/situation. That lady that gets called "a female Johnny Bravo." (Please tell me her name or where to find all her videos, if you know, I love her so much.)

But I could very much see her fancy-strutting up to that little kitty man like, "Aaahhh, mister kitty man, are you lost in this scary mansion?" [Stomps a foot down in a Captain Morgan pose, right in front of where he's trying to go.] "How terribly of you." [Back bend, ballet leg in the air.] "Maybe we should..." [He turns around, bewildered. She pops up right behind him, takes him into the shade under her enormous hat and slides her opera-gloved fingers over his shoulders.] "...get out of here." [Suddenly in front of him.] "Together."

[Leon cringes and whimpers, gestures away from her with guns.] "Ada...Ada, there are zombies. And LICKERS."

[Ada licks her gloved fingers seductively, then sputters out glove fluff. Plays it off.] "What a situation..." [Shifts behind him, back to back, rubs her body up and down his, definitely touches his butt with hers.] "We should stick together..."

[Leon sighs, dies inside.] "...I...I would like to go now..." 😭

Credit where credit due (not much) given how the bastard was responsible for that stupid death trap... at least he used it himself

"Private submarine carrying several billionaire tourists goes missing while surveying the wreckage of the Titanic."

Well, it had to happen eventually. This is where big-ticket extreme tourism and shooting untrained assholes into space and such was always going to lead – frankly, it's surprising that it took this long for a major incident to crop up.

"One of the missing passengers is the president and CEO of the company that owns and operates the submarine."

Huh. Well, points for putting his money where his mouth is, I guess. I wonder if–

"The missing CEO's name is Stockton Rush."

Oh, bullshit. That's not a real person – that's the name of a guy who builds an inexplicably 1950s-themed underwater theme park and then gets eaten by a shark in a cautionary tale about the perils of libertarianism. That's the name of a guy who carries off an oceanfront real estate scam that somehow ends with Superman fighting a telepathic squid. Fucking "Stockton Rush". Unbelievable.
