kinda funny how shawmilla was actually one of the main reasons they're on the spotlight™️ and being talked left and right but at the same time the only thing that made shawn's careers stuck lmao cuz i'm like 92% sure harry's path and where he is now is what he wanted to achieve at some points

Not really funny for me though lmao the thing is they had different backgrounds. Shawn was literally a baby when he started solo and got overexposed way too soon in my opinion. Being in the band protected Harry for when he went solo, built for him a huge fanbase for when he went solo, crafted his brand image for when he went solo and anyone can argue with the wall if they want.

Shawn is still very young anyway, so I wouldn’t call him completely out of the games. I don’t think he’s stuck as you may think. I think he’s stuck because his carreer skyrocketed too early and then nothing.

Shawmila was a mess and honestly I think it did them so dirty, so dirty. I hope this shawmila 2.0 will be less cringy. If they have learned something from the previous mistakes, this could potentially be helping them lol but I have zero expectations.

While joking around with some friends about something cursed it occurred to me that there are two common genres of Clara®-brand Homosexual™: the short(er) dexterous pitcher and the tall well-muscled catcher. Also of note is that when paired, there is traditionally about one head's worth of height between them, give or take half a head

Do with this information what you will.

Oooh I'd love to know more about Rolling a Wave 👀

Hi Mo!

It's the general plot of my original story which I'm translating into English. I'm working on character studies, but it's been slow these last months. I hope I'll finish Raina's in this winter break and quickly design secondary characters. I may pick Priscilla back as a design, who knows. I can't wait to start planning actual pages. xD

First act summary under the cut, tagging also @bfire92 who asked me about this. :3

ACT I – Iceland

1907. A marine biologist, Aisling, is finally at the head of her very own arctic expeditions to study the social behaviour of sperm whales. She has to reevaluate her plans, when she saves a harponeer from the shiprwreck of the Hvalur, a whale fishing ship caught in a bad storm. She’s the only survivor, and also a woman, Naroa, from San Sebastian, who crossdresses to work on the ship, and tells her that it was a sperm whale to cause the wreck.

The expedition was born unlucky: Aisling has received very low fundings, both because nobody really trusts her in a leading position as an unmarried woman, both because her father was a former professor for the same institute that funds her. Small detail: he was stripped of his role and exiled from the Kingdom for having used public money from the university to finance the Irish rebels/Fenian society. Aisling was really able to get some money and sponsorship because she asked for years upon years, has a couple of contacts that vouched for her, and basically is a person that causes very little trouble. Her goal is to gather enough data to demonstrate that sperm whales are highly intelligent social animals, and that their hunting should be severely limited before their number drops. It’s very important to her, not only for personal satisfaction and crowning a lifelong dream of becoming a proper scientist, paid enough for a living and with prestige that female researchers in female colleges were not granted in England, but also to avenge her family. She MUST publish in Oxford because it was the institute that kicked her father out, she must reinstate the good name of the family.

So, with very little money to her name, she rented the smallest, most run-down hovel she could find, 40 minutes from the harbour, fix what she could to make it inhabitable, and hire a small sloop with a fully female crew. Ex piratesses running from the law, widows of fishermen and other figures that needs a living runs the Lusca, not for gold, but to chase whale pods.

In spite of being broke, Aisling welcomes Naroa in until she feels better. Their forced convivence is difficult at first: Aisling is over-enthusiast over whales and is actually diving with the whales to observe them better during the day (“I thought I would have drown today, but Cacciucco was absolutely adorable, you see, so it’s ok, he can bump me again.” “… Da fuq.”), Naroa had fished them for years, and after the shipwreck has not much love for the animals, of course there is only one bed. After a while, Naroa starts working, and embarks on the Lusca to help out, too, there’s some mutual pining and they slowly confess they like each other, fuck gender roles and so on and so forth.

Until one day arrives a letter from the Royal Society, informing Aisling that they’re gonna cut her fundings: the season good for sailing is ending, they’re not willing to pay her to stay another winter doing nothing. Winter that Aisling was planning to use to organize her notes and write the essay for the peer review: it must be done exceedingly well if she wants to have a chance, she doubt they’ll give her another chance if she fails now. She manages to obtain another month, but nothing more.

She quarrels with Naroa: the harponeer tells her that even if her research should fail, it won’t be the end of the world. She has a roof upon her head, a fucking university degree (in France, more open for women), she can decide to do anything else, she has brains and possibilities, what’s the problem? Plus, if her research gets published, it could hit an industry that offers work and livelihood to so many people that have not her chances and possibilities, and for whom losing the job would be much more of a problem. For Naroa it would be: her family is still in San Sebastien, she’s the first of 4 sisters, her father died, and she’s sending money home. Don’t mention she introduces herself as a man because she doesn’t fully feel herself in women clothes and canonically female roles: she can’t afford to lose the job. Plus, she’s Basque, and technically in Iceland it was legal to murder Basques until 2014 (old medieval law they forgot to abrogate). Naroa can’t understand why Aisling is so stubborn and so compliant towards a bunch of idiots that don’t consider her, and all for what? Personal pride? What if her research fail, she’ll be better off without it.

Aisling gets mad, just a little bit. She can’t tell the RS to fuck off, and chances for female biologists aren’t that many. She isn’t very sensitive for whalers, as Naroa fails to understand why an academic research is so important. They split up pretty badly, Aisling leaves for London.

ACT 2 - London

ACT 3 - Alghero (necessary quote)

Hi, I'm starving for some Heathcliff/Ishmael/Yi Sang... Maybe one where Yi Sang's feelings are one sided and he bittersweetly watches them from afar?

Here you go, anon. A friend gave me pequod ids brainrot...

The captain and the harponeer are very close to each other. It's the first thought that crosses his mind, but when he blinks, he realizes they're just Heathcliff and Ishmael. Being the first mate of the Pequod for a little longer than usual seems to be affecting his perception of things.

Yi Sang sighs, still unable to help but feel... disconnected. Of course they're close to each other, the type of suffering they had to go through has somehow united them. They can understand each other, and even desire each other. They think they're being subtle about it, but Yi Sang can see whenever their fingers briefly brush. They want to hold hands, but can't do it when others are looking.

Sometimes he will leave his room late at night and accidentally catch them in the middle of something. Ishmael will glare at Heathcliff, who will return the fiery stare in kind. Then they will lean closer and their lips will fit, like they were made for each other. Unlike Yi Sang, who is the third party intruding into their sweet moment.

It's all useless. It doesn't matter how hard he tries to understand them or to connect, he is the first mate of the Pequod, expendable and loyal to a fault. The captain and her harponeer will desire each other, and he will desire to be with them.

Many people are thinking that Africa had no history. However, historical and archeological studies have proven that Africa has a richer and greater history than ancient historians have tried to have us believe.

🎯 The human race is African descent. The oldest known skeletal remains of anatomically modern humans (or homo sapiens) have been unearthed at sites in East Africa. Human remains were discovered in Omo, Ethiopia and date back to 195,000 years, the oldest known in the world.

🎯 Prehuman skeletons were discovered in Africa between 4 and 5 million years ago. The oldest known ancestral type of mankind is thought to be Australopithecus ramidus, which lived at least 4.4 million years ago.

🎯 Africans were the first to organize fishing expeditions 90,000 years ago. In Katanda, a region in the northeastern part of Zaire (now Congo), a series of finely crafted harpon tips were recovered, all thoroughly polished and barbed. A tool, equally well designed, was also discovered, it is believed to be a dagger. The findings suggest the existence of a first aquatic or fish-based culture.

🎯 Africans were the first to start mining 43,000 years ago. In 1964, a hematite mine was discovered in Swaziland on the Bomvu ridge in the Ngwenya mountain range. Eventually, 300,000 items were recovered, including thousands of stone mining tools. Adrian Boshier, one of the archaeologists present at the site, dated the mine to an astonishing 43,200 years old.

🎯 Africans pioneered basic arithmetic 25,000 years ago. The Ishango bone is a tool handle with engraved notches found in the Ishango region of Zaire (today called Congo) near Lake Edward. The bone tool was originally thought to be over 8,000 years old

« Si Adeline a de la peine »

Sur son tapis de lèvres rouges

Elle a déposé un baiser

Pour empêcher que tes yeux bougent

Dans un moment d’éternité

Mon cœur est parti en vacances

En te laissant ces mots en l’air

Si Adeline a de la peine

Il faudra la jeter en mer

Et par son baiser, je t’ai perdu

J’ai zigzagué le long des rues

Sur mes instructions malhabiles

Elle t’a dérobé tout entier

Je le savais pas si docile

Ce loup voleur et affamé

Mon cœur a fait sa promenade

En te laissant ces mots en sang

Si Adeline a de la peine

Il me faut l’écarter pourtant

Et par son baiser, j’ai tout perdu

J’ai zigzagué le long des rues

En inspectant ton équipage

Tu as recueilli son baiser

Pour empêcher que mes yeux nagent

Dans la mer des cœurs mal aimés

Le tien a hissé la grand’ voile

En me laissant ces mots prisons

Si Adeline a de la peine

Il faudra tirer au harpon

Et par son baiser, j’ai tout perdu

J’ai zigzagué le long des rues

Sur mon tapis de larmes blanches

Je t’ai foudroyé un baiser

Pour empêcher que tes yeux dansent

Dans un moment d’éternité

Mon cœur est parti se rasseoir

En te laissant ces mots en croix

Si Adeline a de la peine

Il faudra l’amputer de toi

Et par mon baiser, tu l’as perdue

On ne la plus jamais revue

Hero Forge

Comme sur tous les autres blogs de @the-after-eight, j'ai un petit design fait avec Hero Forge. J'ai été très contente de voir avec qu'elle précision j'ai pu avoir Morri : il y a quelques erreurs, comme pour le tatouage, ou le sens de certains détails, mais honnêtement, avec ce site, je ne m'attendais pas à être aussi proche du design de base (comme pour @captain-glucose-sidekick). En plus elle a son harpon de pêche et son hachoir de cuisine ! Normalement, le côté droit de sa tête n'est pas rasé à blanc, et ses cicatrices sont à gauche de son visage. Mais là, avec cette pose, on dirait un peu un fauve enragé je trouves ! ^^

[sigarou]

Dans les yeux des femmes y a des gares

Des trains de retour, des fanfares

Des hommes qui agitent des mouchoirs de soie

Des ´je t´aime´ plein la voix

Dans les yeux des femmes y a des ´bon gré mal gré´

Des remords, des regrets

Des ´J´aurais dû´, ´si j´avais su´

La peau d´homme, quel joli tissu!

Dans les yeux des femmes y a des amants

Qui tuent leur ennui par moment

Romans d´amour à l´eau de vaisselle

Des écailles qu´elles prennent pour des ailes

Elles ont compris

Elles ont compris

Qu´elles étaient belles

Elles ont compris

Qu´elles étaient celles

Qu´on voulait à tout prix

Dans les yeux des femmes y a des Carmen

Des putains à la petite semaine

Qui ont le corps cigale où le cœur fourmi

A placer ses économies

Dans les yeux des femmes y a des erreurs

Des maquereaux, des maîtres-nageurs

Remords d´avoir mis leurs nageoires

Dans des mers qui étaient qu´des baignoires

Dans les yeux des femmes y a des chanteurs

Qui ont leur discothèque dans le cœur

Chansons harpons pour thés dansés

Qui jusqu´au sang les ont blessées

Elles ont compris

Elles ont compris

Qu´elles étaient belles

Elles ont compris

Qu´elles étaient celles

Qu´on voulait à tout prix

Dans les yeux des femmes y a des enfants

Qui poussent des cris triomphants

Enfants qui seront meilleurs en tout

Qui les vengeront de leurs époux

Dans les yeux des femmes la petite maison

L´amour sur le gaz, le gazon

Strictes et peignées, sorties de l´école

Finies les idylles, les idoles

Dans les yeux des femmes y a surtout

Ce qu´on y met quand on en est fou

Ces temps-ci si j´ai pas l´air gai

C´est que les yeux d´une femme m´ont flingué

Elle a compris

Elle a compris

Qu´elle était belle

Elle a compris

Qu´elle était celle

Que je voulais à tout prix❤️
