I know Wriollette shippers are probably going feral about day 4 of the 4.4 Lantern Rite event quest, and like I can see where y'all coming from of course, but I'm wired differently and have instead been flung headfirst into the significantly funnier "actual enemies to lovers old men yaoi" that is Zhongli and Neuvillette with Hu Tao and Furina furiously wingwomaning their asses off (and also dating because I've latched on to that as well) and Wrio getting the honor of being the guy all the courtship gifts get run past and having to be like:

"I'm not gonna lie, I don't know if.... 'Cider Lake water infused with the essence of an eye of the storm' is gonna fly"

"well, technically it is merely levitating, but-"

"No, I mean, it's not exactly catering to the taste of the person receiving the gift, now is it? When giving a gift you have to keep in mind what the other person would enjoy receiving from you."

"That is insightful advice indeed. Thank you, Wriothesley. It seems I shall have to think on this matter for a while longer."

Anyway, I think Hu Tao is completely correct that Zhongli and Neuvillette would get along to an insane degree always happy to give each other mini lectures about various interests.... if not for the whole mortal enemies thing. But that makes it that much more interesting to contemplate! Nothing like some major initial tension to spice up the dynamic and make the sweet moments sweeter, right?

Also I love the idea of them being their incredibly odd strange selves in public together. Most fascinating, polite, and strangely knowledgeable couple you'll ever meet. It is said that freaks are in the sheets, but these two are being freaks in the streets by their very nature.

They go out to eat and one requests a highly specific tea and spontaneously tries to teach the staff how to make it correctly, and the other requests water and compliments the mineral deposits of the local well and suggests planting mist corrolas and mint around it for a more refreshing undertone. The bits of conversation the waiter can catch covers topics ranging from the manufacturing process of Liyue silk to the exact details of paragraph 17 article 36 of Fontanian Law to do with permitted height of buildings, airspace allowance, and the recent conflicts surrounding it.

something something hu tao embodying moving on and letting go of past pain for a brighter and more playful future meeting furina. something something furina embodying putting on a mask to hide your true feelings until the mask is all you know meeting hu tao.

I know it's probably just gonna be a gremlin off, but if they actually have a heart to heart my cardiac is going to be under arrest

I… I am sorry… Sketched… Furina… Hu Tao… frenchkissed…

I don’t even really ship them but my brain said ‘Lezgo for the fun’ ??? Like really, it was a why the duck not pulsion QvQ

Remember artists, with great powers come great responsibilities, and THIS is just a tiny fraction of what can be done (Thank lord I won’t make more).

And a friend of mine can’t unsee my art, so I made this meme for him. So just in case here, you have it :

Adios I now disappear with holy water to purify my sin 😇

Zawarldo's Ravens, House Escher

A small crew of violent gangers

This group of brutal thugs are largely known for the chems they produce, recreational and weaponised. From more commonly known chems like Ghast and Spur to their own deadly concoctions like Deathbed and Necrotia, these masters of toxins utilise their product to expand their territory with the Hive Cities.

Zawarldo, Queen of Zawarldo's Ravens

With her distinctive tattoos, off-world leather jacket and large chainaxe, she already stands out amongst her crew. Known for getting pissed off quite quickly, she has a propensity to vaporise her enemies with her meltagun or rendering them into chunks with her chainaxe. Possessed with great intelligence, she is a formidable tactician and master criminal.

Turina, second in command

Whilst it looks like the hair and feathers get in the way, this doesn't prevent her from wielding her needle rifle with deadly precision. Utilising the toxins created by their chem labs, Turina keeps a small stash on her so she many tailor the effects for her immediate needs. Should an enemy ganger get too close, her stiletto knife also be laced in toxins to great effect.

Polly, head chemist and matriarch

Polly, a furious and bright matriarch. She is incredibly prepared for most combat situations that she might find herself in, taking various grenades and chems with her wherever she goes. She is also the gangs head chemist, it is her who comes up with the mixtures and names them accordingly. Her favourite is Nervetwist, a paralysing toxin that maims its victim in ways that are too horrifying to mention.

Ferrousia

A twisted individual. She tends to cripple her opponents with her lasgun at range, before getting in close and slowly slicing her victim with a toxin laced stiletto knife. Her favourite toxin is Excrutio. Should have been born a Drukhari.

Tsarina

A reliable member of the gang, she is the most likely to try to aide fallen allies in some way. She is always modifying something, whether her lasgun or her herself. She keeps a list of upgrades that she'd like to do to... Well everything. Most likely to steal a jetbike from the dumbass nobles.

Hurina

She will try to kill you. If you aren't part of the gang, she'll likely sooner stab you or shoot you than talk to you. Quite the silent type. May spare you if you grovel for your life, but this is only temporary.

El Parque Eco Rupestre El Mantantial, ubicado a 15 kilómetros de Roboré, y donde se puede observar pinturas que datan de hace más 10 mil años, fue alcanzado por el fuego que arrasa hectáreas de bosques de la Chiquitania en Santa Cruz. La zona donde antes tenía una gran vegetación y que albergaba a tejones, hurinas, osos hormigueros y otros animales, ahora se encuentra calcinado y el agua del lugar se ha cubierto de cenizas. Los responsables y voluntarios piden ayuda para limpiar y reforestar el lugar que era selva virgen. "El fuego se nos entró y hemos perdido todo", lamentó Gleny Gallardo, encargada del lugar. Gallardo recuerda que el fuego ingresó de sus vecinos del lado Este el 17 de agosto, las llamas duraron tres días. En el lugar sólo viven cinco personas y tuvieron que combatir solas el fuego hasta que el viento avivó más las brasas y la situación empeoró. A penas salvaron la casa. No podían pedir ayuda porque los cables de la empresa telefónica fueron afectados. Los animales, que viven libres en el lugar, comenzaron a huir y varios murieron calcinados. La emergencia aún se mantiene en el lugar debido a que colindan con la reserva Tucavaca, que ahora se encuentra con fuego y temen un nuevo incendio en el parque. Gallardo manifestó que al ser un lugar privado las autoridades locales les negaron ayuda. "Fui a pedir ayuda a la Alcaldía y me dice que no nos van a ayudar porque somos un parque privado", apuntó y manifestó que no tienen ni agua. El lugar necesita ayuda con platines de limones, tajibos, semillas de pasto y plantas ornamentales. Para coordinar la ayuda se debe llamar al siguiente número de teléfono: 72132381. En Roboré las fuentes naturales de agua se llenaron de ceniza y se necesita agua potable en la comunidad. El fuego, que nació en los municipios de Roboré y San Ignacio hace más de 20 días, avanza sin tregua, y hasta ayer se había registrado 953.917 hectáreas quemadas. #SOSChiquitania #Ramsar #NoMASquemas #DesarrolloCruceño #SOSBoliva #EcoDelincuentes #PrayForPantanal #PrayFirAmazonas #Bolivia #Fire #Ecofeminismo #EcologíaPolítica https://www.instagram.com/p/B1fDYtjlulk/?igshid=1jjrt1jo572s3

Can I just say the straight line style polycule that is Hu Tao x Furina x Neuvillette x Zhongli never stops being top tier comedy to me and it feels like no one talks about it.

Like, come on guys, it's got everything you could possibly ask for!

Newly mortal girl finally getting to live her own life after centuries of playing a role meets super chill and supportive funeral parlor director who can ease any worries she may have about death as a concept and also play pranks on her, drag her fun places, and help her make up with her long term situationship Dragon Sovereign who is deeply devoted to making her happy.

Honestly this is already fantastic; Neuvillette gets Gremlin (beloved) and Gremlin (mischievous) in his life! He brings Furina flowers after her performances and has a collection of autographed photos from each in his room. Hu Tao comes by to hang out in his office and bother him about marketing her funeral parlor, and he has to explain advertisement laws in Fontaine and how several of her ideas would get her arrested and that this would make Lady Furina quite upset. She teases him for "being a simp" and it slides off him like water.

Furina has a collection of pressed flowers from each of Neuvillete's bouquets in her room. Hu Tao taught her how to press and preserve flowers after her sopping wet meowmeow of a girlfriend cried in her arms about that first bouquet starting to wither.

Hu Tao drags both of them into playing TCG with her any time she can, and is always putting in word with local and visiting theater troupes about her girlfriend's acting talent and excellent director services. She loves seeing Furina squeal at the sight of a ghost, but usually shoos them away unless she's trying to spook her on purpose. Sometimes she runs her poetry by Neuvillette before going to recite it to Furina because she finds he has a good eye for it, and sometimes is able to convince him to put his own feelings into words through poetry as well.

Fontaine is full of tabloids arguing about who Fontaine's superstar is Actually Dating, and no one is certain! She is seen on the beach walking hand in hand with the Iudex merely two days after having publicly ordering the couple's special at a renowned coffeeshop with a strange Liyue girl. She has not denied dating either of them, nor has there been any indication of a breakup??? The two suitors have been spotted out purchasing her favorite sweets together, so they don't appear to be on bad terms??? The papers have no idea what to do with this and it is hilarious.

And then Zhongli enters the picture. Mysteriously absent any time Neuvillette comes by with Furina, but always there to chat and provide wild trivia when it's just the girls hanging out. And the girls have caught on. Hu Tao has a pretty good idea of what's up, but Furina?

Furina convenes with her girlfriend and is like "I think that employee of yours, Mr. Zhongli, might have a thing for Neuvillette? I've seen many dramas in my lifetime, but this is still the most obvious crush I've seen in centuries. Any time I mention Neuvillette he gets stiff as a board, turns seven different colors, and starts avoiding eye contact like the plague! It's like he thinks someone is going to bite his head off if he so much as thinks about the man! A shame too, they seem like they'd get along so well..."

Hu Tao, fighting for her life to not fall into fits of laughter: "We should set them up on a date"

Furina gets super excited about it! This is just like in one of her favorite plays!! Hu Tao adds fuel to the fire by teasing Zhongli about his "crush" in front of Furina one time, and he politely denies having any such thoughts about the reputable and honorable Iudex. Furina just becomes further convinced she's correctly judged the situation. Hu Tao knows exactly what she is doing and is reveling in the situation she is putting her consultant into.

Furina has all the details meticulously planned out, she is vibrating with excitement to matchmake her partner with someone so well suited for him. Hu Tao helps her find a suitable location in Chenyu, (near Fontaine, excellent tea, the perfect place to set a trap- sorry, date) They talk to the staff and the staff is excited to help.

Neuvillette keeps hearing from Furina about this charming man he simply must meet and how "he's exactly your type" and "is totally crushing on you" and he's a little nervous, but agrees to try and attend this blind date because he trusts Lady Furina's judgement, and he can't deny he IS curious to meet someone who can allegedly distinguish where an ore comes from on sight and taste minute differences in the mineral concentration of the tea water the way Furina claims this man can. Neuvillette arrives to the teahouse knowing only that he is going on a date with someone who is "secretly harboring feeling for him".

As for Zhongli? He knows something is up, but can't quite tell What exactly Director Hu is planning. When he's given some pocket money and told to attend a very important meeting in her stead at the teahouse, he goes, if only out of curiosity. (And of course, who would miss out on such quality tea?)

When the Iudex of Fontaine walks in and zeroes in on him and his table with slitted eyes, Zhongli seriously considers whether or not he can get away with faking his own death a second time on such short notice.

The answer of course is No, but he discovers he doesn't Have To, at least not yet. The Hydro Dragon Sovereign power walks up to the table, looking to be on the verge of attempting to drag Morax back to Fontaine for judgement by the scruff of his neck if necessary, but then seems to pause to properly look at the other man and consider the spread of tea and appetizers peacefully sitting in front of him. He throws a glance around the room, catching the interested looks the staff is poorly hiding, then catches and holds Zhongli's gaze as if searching for something in it. Celestia only knows what he's trying to decipher, and Zhongli can only clench his teacup and pray that whatever he finds is enough to convince him to let this go for the moment. He can feel the heat climbing up the back of his neck, his tie feeling a bit too tight for comfort, but he swallows down the nerves and tries for a pacifying smile.

(He's pretty sure it comes out a bit more tense than intended)

((He's also pretty sure the Hydro Dragon Sovereign can hear the pounding of the blood rushing in his veins, probably even sense the sweat building up under his collar))

(((The way his eyes flicked to watch his throat as he swallowed gives the impression of a creature considering the ease with which that throat can be torn out with its teeth)))

"You've come all this way; would you care to try the tea, Monsieur Neuvillette? It is a local specialty of this region, meticulously hand picked and dried using traditional methods passed down for generations. I am quite confident you may find it to your liking, though the local water is also quite distinctive, and I'm sure we can get you a glass if that is what you prefer. Had I known to expect your presence I would have requested one already," He keeps his speech calm and measured, even as his heart tries to climb out of his chest from the tension. No need to worry. If it comes down to it, he's has seen his fair share of war and battle. He can take him. Or at least could have taken him... a fully fledged Dragon Sovereign is a battle he would much rather simply not engage in. There is wisdom, after all, in not picking fights where mediation and contractual obligation can suffice. And social contract is as much a form of contract as any other. Surely the esteemed Iudex understands this...

Neuvillette relieves Zhongli of his intense stare and sits down without so much as a threat. The tension leaks out of Zhongli's posture ever so slightly as Neuvillette picks up the cup of freshly brewed tea that had been presented to him. Seems whatever he found sufficed to stay his hand for now.

Neuvillette is too busy reeling, trying to come to terms with the notion that an Usurper he is determined to judge for his sins has apparently developed some kind of romantic interest in him. He will still be judged, of course, it is only right. But... that doesn't mean that such tender feelings must be cruelly rejected without even having been given a chance. Furina believes in this man's suitability, after all, whether she knows his archon nature or not. And he would be remiss to overlook her opinion. She had always held deep insights into people's natures that Neuvillette himself never could quite grasp as thoroughly. Her incredible humanity and understanding is something he values dearly, and she was technically an Archon herself at one point after all, and yet, he loves her all the same. The cup wafts with a pleasant warmth and the taste of tea infused mountain spring water lingers on his tongue, as gold eyes observe him attentively, looking for his reaction. Yes, it is only fair. He will make an honest attempt to view this man before him as more than just an Usurper, and judge his eligibility as a romantic partner as a separate case.

For the entire rest of the "date" Zhongli is stressed, making conversation like his life depends on it, throwing in some flattering comments here and there to feed the air of polite goodwill he's trying to foster, and trying his best to read Neuvillette, who remains remarkably inscrutable. In the meantime, Neuvillette is just politely allowing himself to be rizzed up.

Neuvillette goes home pleasantly surprised by the experience.

Neuvillette: "You were quite right about him Lady Furina, Mr. Zhongli is indeed a terribly charming and intelligent man with refined tastes and a dignified manner. I'm afraid you have accurately predicted that I could indeed become quite fond of him. A shame I will have to judge him someday, but as you've experienced, I do not allow myself to be biased in formally judging individuals I have feelings for. Nevertheless, it really is quite insightful of you to have me get to know the Geo Archon outside of a courtroom setting."

Furina: "...............the who"

Zhongli is dragging himself home worn out from the encounter, feeling his age in his bones and wanting nothing more than to lie down and not think about the Next Time he was assured he would be contacted about.

Hu Tao, standing at the door, grinning: "soooooooo.... how was your hot date with the Iudex?"

Zhongli: "...............my what"

Hu Tao: "Ayah~ Surely you realized it was a date? Furina has been so excited to set this up for you since you seemed like you were going to avoid it forever! She told her boyfriend aaaaall about your little crush on him and told him to give you a shot! Surely you didn't fumble him that bad?"

Zhongli, suddenly reevaluating every single thing that happened during dinner in a brand new light: "I am not sure what the best term to describe what occurred is, but he did ask to see me again."

Hu Tao: "My my, who knew my consultant could be such a rizzler! A bet lost/ A prize won/ A love found/ A heart surrendered!"

Zhongli: ".....You bet against me?"

Hu Tao smoothly avoids answering that by handing him some paperwork, leaving some instructions and skipping off to go about her business.

Heräsin päiväunilta ja naapurista kuuluu joku jatkuva tietyssä rytmissä kuuluva hurina ja tuun hulluksi

[nemorosae]

Odotus

Koko asunto tuntui elottomalta. Katjan katse seurasi seinäkellon sekuntiviisarien liikkumista, sen tikityksen lisäksi ainoat kuultavissa olevat äänet olivat jääkaapin hurina ja Katjan oma hengitys.

Puhelimessa ei ollut uusia viestejä.

Valpurin viimeisin viesti, "nousin nyt bussista", oli saapunut kahdeksan minuuttia sitten. Kulkuun pysäkiltä rappukäytävään ja rappuja toiseen kerrokseen meni seitsemän.

Katja keskittyi hengittämään syvään, yrittäen karkottaa rintakehässään tuntuvaa painetta. Sormet tuntuivat takertuvan milloin vilttiin, milloin sotkuiseen poninhäntään.

Vihdoin, vihdoin, avain kääntyi lukossa.

288) John Ronald Reuel Tolkien – “Dzieci Hurina”. Redakcja Christopher Tolkien. Ilustracje Alan Lee - dzieło, nad którym Tolkien pracował przez całe życie, doczekało się pierwszego wydania w ponad 30 lat od śmierci jednego z największych pisarzy XX wieku. Historia Túrina i jego siostry Niënor – dzieci Húrina, człowieka, który śmiał się przeciwstawić Czarnemu Władcy – toczy się na długo przed wydarzeniami „Władcy pierścieni”, w rozległej krainie za Szarymi Przystaniami, na ziemiach, po których chadzał niegdyś Drzewiec, zatopionych podczas wielkiego kataklizmu, jaki zakończył Pierwszą Erę świata. W odległych czasach, gdy na Północy wznosiła się ogromna twierdza pierwszego Czarnego Władcy. To opowieść o wojnie rozpętanej przez Morgotha przeciwko elfom i ludziom, o nienawiści i zemście, o odwadze i słabnącej nadziei, o strachu i o zmaganiu się z przeznaczeniem. O losach Túrina i Niënor, naznaczonych straszliwą klątwą Czarnego Władcy. Historia opisana w książce stanowi fragment innych dzieł J.R.R. Tolkiena. Silmarillion nakreśla tło wydarzeń opisanych w Dzieciach Húrina, a także ich szerszy sens oraz znaczenie w historii Śródziemia. W Niedokończonych opowieściach umieszczono zaś fragmenty, na podstawie których zbudowano całość Dzieci Húrina.                    John Ronald Reuel Tolkien (1892-1973), jeden z najwybitniejszych pisarzy w historii literatury, zasłynął jako twórca niepowtarzalnego gatunku literackiego i niezwykłej krainy fikcji, która od lat zachwyca kolejne pokolenia czytelników. Źródłem inspiracji dla powstania Hobbita, Władcy Pierścieni, Silmarillionu, Niedokończonych opowieści były legendy. Lecz sięgając do mitów greckich i rzymskich, celtyckich i anglosaskich, legend arturiańskich, karolińskich i germańskich, Tolkien - profesor języka staroangielskiego w Oksfordzie, jeden z najlepszych filologów swoich czasów – powołał do życia własną, na wskroś oryginalną mitologię. Rozmach tego przedsięwzięcia jest oszałamiający, a niepowtarzalny świat Śródziemia – najbardziej zwarty i drobiazgowo wymyślony świat w historii literatury zapisał się trwale we współczesnej kulturze.                    Turin urodził się w Dor-Ióminie „zimą owego roku”, jak zostało zapisane w Annals of Beleriand (Kronikach Beleriandu), „wśród zwiastunów smutku”, mniej więcej sześć i pół tysiąca lat przed Naradą u Elronda w Rivendell. Tragedii życia Turina w żaden sposób nie można tłumaczyć jedynie jego charakterem. Przyszło mu bowiem wieść życie osaczonego, nad którym ciąży przekleństwo przemożnej i tajemniczej potęgi, życie obłożonego klątwą nienawiści, rzuconą przez Morgotha na Hurina, Morwenę oraz ich dzieci za to, że Hurin mu się przeciwstawił i nie ugiął przed jego wolą. Morgoth zaś, nazywany później Czarnym Nieprzyjacielem, był pierwotnie – jak to oznajmił przyprowadzonemu przed swe oblicze pojmanemu Hurinowi – „Melkorem, pierwszym i najpotężniejszym z Valarów, który był, zanim powstał świat”. Teraz na trwałe nosił cielesną postać, występując jako olbrzym i majestatyczny, lecz straszliwy król północnego zachodu Śródziemia i fizycznie przebywając w swej ogromnej fortecy Angbandzie, Piekle Żelaza. Czarne wyziewy, które, unosząc się nad szczytami Thangorodrimu – gór, które Morgoth wypiętrzył nad Angbandem – plamiły północne niebo, widać było z daleka. Powiada się w Annals of Beleriand, że „bramy Morgotha od mostu Menegrothu dzieliło ledwie sto pięćdziesiąt staj; wiele, a zarazem o wiele za mało”. Słowa te odnoszą się do mostu prowadzącego do siedziby króla elfów Thingola, który przyjął Turina na wychowanie; siedziba ta zwała się Menegroth, Tysiąc Grot, i leżała daleko na południowy wschód od Dor-Ióminu. Jednak przybrawszy cielesną postać, Morgoth odczuwał strach. Mój ojciec napisał o nim: „W miarę jak wzrastał w złośliwość i wysyłał z siebie zło, które zasiewał w swych kłamstwach i nikczemnych stworach, jego moc przechodziła na nie i się rozpraszała, a on sam stawał się coraz bardziej związany z ziemią i niechętnie opuszczał swe mroczne twierdze”. Toteż kiedy Fingolfin, Najwyższy Król Noldorów, samotnie pojechał konno do Angbandu, by wyzwać Morgotha na pojedynek, zawołał u bram: „Wyjdź, tchórzliwy królu, i własną prawicą ujmij oręż! Ty, który gnieździsz się w jamach, władasz niewolnikami, kłamco i czatowniku, wrogu Bogów i elfów, wynijdź! Chcę bowiem ujrzeć twą bojaźliwą twarz”. Wtedy jak powiadają Morgoth wyszedł. Nie mógł bowiem odrzucić takiego wyzwania w obecności swoich dowódców. Walczył olbrzymim młotem Grondem, który każdym uderzeniem wybijał w ziemi wielką dziurę, i w końcu powalił Fingolfina, lecz umierając, król przygwoździł ogromną stopę Morgotha do ziemi „i trysnęła czarna krew, wypełniając dziury wybite przez Grond. Odtąd Morgoth już zawsze chromał”. Także kiedy Beren i Luthien pod postaciami wilka i nietoperzycy zakradli się do najgłębiej położonej sali Angbandu, w której zasiadał Morgoth, a Luthien rzuciła na niego zaklęcie, „nagle padł jak góra rozsypująca się w lawinie, runął z łoskotem ze swego tronu i legł twarzą do ziemi na dnie piekła. Żelazna korona z głośnym brzękiem stoczyła się z jego głowy”…
