Don't mind me, I just needed to share this photo of Vavassori carrying a cardboard cut-out of Bolelli at the Super Tennis awards

Thinking about the new Pope being elected and everybody being delighted about it and moving forward and it's scary and daunting and exhausting but things are happening! There is hope in renewal and change!

So it takes a few days before Ray sits bolt upright in the middle of the night because where is Archbishop Woźniak?

His things are still in his office. He's supposed to be handing over to his successor. Consulting on arrangements being made for papal audiences from here, what will be required, what options are available for their new Pope in how he wishes to conduct his meetings and audiences and retreats. It's a lot to get their head around but... Woźniak never came back.

(or rather, they left him behind)

Ok so like we all agree that was Kickin in the tape with Hoppy, right?

Just very curious if there is a reason you drew Caesar's expression differently when he looks at the diadem between your more recent comic and the October one?

against my will, Caesar has become a fully formed character in my mind since I posted the original one, which means that he’s got thoughts and motivations when I have to include him in a scene

Gachalings!

My tablet came in, so I drew more Ling merch! I also got holographic tape, so the Gachaling stickers can come in sparkle flavor!

(Also the circle puncher can't punch through tape, so I had to show off my intricate and professional circle cutting skills. ✂️)

Book Daemon, at least, appeared to have genuine feelings for both Laena and Rhaenyra. If she said she would marry him after winning the throne, I don't think he would have left her. Show Daemon though seems to care less for anyone except Viserys.

WEll.......while I do agree it's very obvious in the books that Daemon loved both Laena and Rhaenyra, and I kinda roll my eyes when people insist he only loved one of them, and yeah, I definitely agree book Daemon would agree to hold off on marrying if she promised a Specific Date (ie after I get the throne/after Jace and Baela have a kid). BUT. I don't agree he doesn't care about anyone but Viserys in the show. I think a) erasing his love for Laena is just point blank nonsensical and stupid and i will fight and die on that hill against anyone who wants to argue that stupid ass "well what relationship does it make sense to make the emotional base of the show, rhaenicent and daemyra or laenyra and daemyra" because none of those things are actually in opposition to each other but also b) again, like most of the blacks in the second half of the show, daemon seems to not have many very close relationships outside of Viserys and Rhaenyra because they just cut all the relevant scenes. We barely see him interact with Baela, Rhaena, or Jacaerys, and they don't really make Steffon Darklyn stand out, he doesn't live on Driftmark with Laenor, Rhaenys, Laena, and Corlys, so Daemon is just like, being a weirdo all over Westeros without any real emotional ties.

BUT. I do think the fact that Daemon doesn't have as many clear cut emotional ties also does make his more erratic or goofy ass behavior in show canon make more sense. Because he's constantly waiting for (imo) Viserys or Rhaenyra to make the first move here, he isolates himself, but he also never quite explains that he feels discarded/jerked around outside of moments where he's just straight up arguing with Viserys. I also think show Daemon has a few more....scruples? shall we say? When it comes to his seductions of both Rhaenyra and Laena than book Daemon does. Book Daemon clearly does not care about the age differences between him and the women he's involved with (or, well, if he does care, he doesn't show it very much) whereas show Daemon is (rightly) wrestling with the appropriateness of eloping with a teenager. IMO, that's why he stays in Pentos instead of writing to come home to Viserys; he can't really tell Rhaenyra "you were too young" when he's shacked up with someone even younger than her, whereas in the book, he never "abandons" Rhaenyra nor does he keep Laena from her home for very long, so he just doesn't have that emotional issue with them.

So like yes, while I do think his attraction to Rhaenyra is completely tied up in his attraction to Viserys, I think it's also very clear he is attracted to Rhaenyra, and he craves emotional validation from her in the exact same way he does from Viserys. It's why he's so weird at Driftmark with the both of them when he first comes back; he's once again panicking, feeling both that they don't want him there, they're just placating him and they'll reject him again soon, he's third wheeling this dynamic, etc., while also feeling extremely guilty over not fulfilling his "role" of protecting them, of once again taking advantage of Rhaenyra when she's emotionally vulnerable, of being able to ~see clearly~ that Viserys is surrounded by vipers and doing nothing to stop it, etc etc.

Honestly, for me, one of the more ... uninspired and a little bit grating takes on problématique characters with sad backstories is: "well this other character experienced this and worse and they're not out there killing people!"

i mean, good for them, but I don't think we need a "best practice" approach to trauma

I'm so tired and listened to so much rq gaming over the last 24 hours Alex doesn't sound real anymore. Who is this boy? Why does he sound not real?!

it sucks that shitty fans have made it impossible to celebrate canon queer relationships that they don't like and seem to have an influence on which ones get attention on social media. it sucks that it seems like no matter how much tim says he ignores fandom, it stills get to him. it sucks that oliver refuses to stand up for his costars when they're being harassed. it sucks that antis feel like they have the power to ruin good things for other people because they don't gain anything from it. it sucks that we all already knew this would happen because this show never changes no matter what network it's on.

just out of curiosity have you read the howls moving castle book? cause i also did not like howl in the movie but found him and his relationship ship w sophie much more entertaining when i read it but i also know some people dislike book howl even more

No i havent read it myself but ive seen some snippets here and there and from that i think i could probably get behind finding him more entertaining in the book. Something about the way hes animated and portrayed in the movie makes him very lacking in personality to me, so when his pathetic drama queen scenes happen it genuinely just makes me uncomfortable rather finding it entertaining.

Cuz like when describing those scenes i feel like i WOULD like Howl in a "hes so pathetic and ridiculous" way but when i actually Watch Them im just left feeling like "wow this guys the worst in like a Bad Way i dont want to be here anymore"
