Percy figuring out Kronos is actually behind everything:
Fans wondering how the hell he made that leap:
#where did that come from???#he literally thought of it out of nowhere#honestly I love this show#but that episode was kind of a mess.#too much stuff#should have been two episodes#I just think they tried to cram too much into one episode#pjo spoilers#i miss the books a bit

thinking about Nico adjusting to letting himself miss and long for the people he loves. based on these bits from the sun and the star:
" As Nico and Will followed the trogs, he thought about how much he missed Hazel. He was learning to make peace with that feeling. It was okay for him to miss people because that meant he wanted them around in his life. That idea was *very* new for him- he was used to either pushing people away or watching them recoil from his presence." *
" That was the most surreal thing of all... Was he happy? Nico wasn't very familiar with the sensation, but he couldn't deny that he felt wonderful in Will's presence. He even longed for the son of Apollo when they were apart. A funny thing had happened as the two grew closer: Nico suddenly understood all those cheesy, sappy love songs he'd always hated."
#its just. i like that they included that in the book yk. the fact that he prepared a certain distance between everyone#and thus isnt used to missing anyone#so its strange for him#this is probably set somewhere pre tsats just because i like to think it was one of the times he found himself missing and longing.#but it was one of the first times he actually allowed himself to feel that way.#took the feeling and held it instead of banishing it away#also yes letting himself unmask a bit#i like to think he just gets wayyy more expressive with his hands the more he heals#that and he unmasks more!!! more openly stimming!! more special interest rambles!!#just oughh.#anyways this was a huge comic to colour#big fuck you to tumblr who made posting soooo much harder#fuck u and ur updates tumblr#solangelo#pjo#percy jackson and the olympians#percy jackon and the olympians#nico di angelo#will solace#the sun and the star#trials of apollo#they borrow clothes from eachother its real in my head okay#nico canonally bought will a stupid shirt as a joke tho and i love that for them

ok someone please correct me if i'm wrong but am i weird for thinking those 'audiobooks don't count as reading' posts are ableist as fuck????
#ramble#my first thought was like: how is this even a debate what about blind people. not every book comes in braille but MOST have an audiobook#or dyslexic people#you still enjoyed the book!! you still absorbed it!!! you got EXACTLY the same thing as people who read the words!!!#how does it not count????#i guess you miss out on the 'learning new vocab' you get through seeing the words but also#i don't really do audiobooks but i do a lot of podcasts esp fiction podcasts#and i have ABSOLUTELY picked up new stuff from there that helps with my writing#someone please explain how this is even an argument of COURSE it counts????#idk in my opinion finishing a book means 'i put the words in my brain and i thought about them and i enjoyed a story'#not 'i held a stack of paper in my hands for a bit'#i'm v lucky that i do have time to sit and read. and whenever i commute anywhere it's public transport so i CAN bring a book with me#but if i didn't have the free time or had to drive for hours everywhere i would be STOKED to still get to enjoy books#it's been REALLY bothering me lmao idk why i feel so strongly#for some reason it's giving the same energy as like. being told you can't take a comic or manga from the library bc it's not a 'real' book#of course it's a real book it's a story somebody wrote down#i can see this spiralling into 'if you have a kindle you aren't reading'. you have to sniff the paper. feel the papercuts

Mobei-Jun getting abandoned in the human realm by his favourite uncle and being left alone and terrified?? baby???? gonna lie awake thinking about him and Shang Qinghua meeting as children
#svsss#shang qinghua#mobei jun#moshang#sqh#mbj#that is a DELIGHTFUL twist on their canon dynamic#where sqh is justifiably scared of mbj because he's a powerful demon who could squish him like a bug#instead here we have lil mbj who's terrified of all these humans and is alone and helpless and in danger#like he was left there to die! and his father just happened to notice he was missing after ten days!#like fortunately he wasn't hurt just dirty and scared but no wonder this guy has trust issues!#any fic recs about young mbj in the human realm - or de-age fics with him being scared around humans - i would deeply appreciate#because i want to chew on this entire concept a bit#(i'm never gonna finish this book i swear every three pages i have to stop and digest a random bit of trivia mxtx throws out and then!#doesn't! fucking! expand on!!! you can't just drop this on me and expect me to be okay with it i need to lie here and think about this!)#my art

this chapter has been so absolutely nuts that I actually low-key forgot that I had a couple of new UM posters to do! wild! anyway, I gotta think about Lilia's some more, so here is my beautiful electric crocodile son in the meantime. god I hope this reads properly
(I went with Volt to go with his name, but there's a Bolt version too in the print-size folder!)
#art#twisted wonderland#twisted wonderland spoilers#twisted wonderland episode 7 spoilers#twisted wonderland book 7 spoilers#unique magic posters#sebek: i have no choice...i'm going to have to use my special secret technique...#sebek: (furiously shuffling his socks on the shag carpeting) JUPITER THUNDERCLAP ZAP#i love him so much#it turns out i had missed a couple of scenes in his hexagon map so i went back and made sure to hit everything#and i am SO glad i did#i almost missed the spoon scene! I ALMOST MISSED THE SPOON SCENE#every single bit with little sebek and silver is just such a delight#in fact every single bit with big sebek and silver is pretty delightful too#sebek going 'silver if you don't come out RIGHT NOW i'm going to tell everyone your embarrassing fishing story!' is a personal favorite#tell us the story sebek.

Underrated character growth throughout the sellswords trilogy is Artemis becoming weirdly smug about his unrequested makeover as soon as he can use it to be condescending at people he doesn't like.
#legend of drizzt#artemis entreri#jarlaxle baenre#these are both actual scenes from empty joys and road of the patriarch#that live rent free in my brain#paraphrased ofc#but yeah I’m a bit obsessed with these two clowns and their roommate era#I’m reading book 23 now (omg) and I miss it#did anyone foresee my getting consumed by this nearly 40 book long D&D novel series on their 2024 bingo??#I didn’t either! but here we are!#I still don’t quite know how to draw these characters#but I had a sudden urgent need to start making dumb art about them#arrrt#booksss#'mine'

rewatched Kurogiri's holiday story from ultra impact (not related to sketch at all)
(but it did inspire me)
on another note
finally!!
#fanart#sketch#my art#bnha#shigaraki tomura#tenko shimura#kurogiri#I cried a bit while playing it I missed the classic LoV I missed Kurogiri WITH the LoV it's been so long :(#and it feels like last chapter (423 atm) broke the seal of sketching them as anything but something static#it took me two or so days to just understand that Kurogiri is... yeah#I can't believe it took Horikoshi so long to bring him back but as I said and will say it again I glad it happened at all#after some thought I just want to sit with the chapters#anyway getting the preordered book was so much fun#it was full of LoV from Toga and Dabi talking about her house to Tenko being upset over being told that he doesn't have friends#and everything in-between basically only Compress left to join in the next volume#I think????#I actually want to get another one already they're so goodddd#and the translation sounds pretty good but I checked some pages not the whole book it'll be boring#it's actually so weird to think that I started a goal of reading the whole series ad it was now officially coming out like this back in 201#and now it's 2024 and the translation is pretty much ahead of anime and maybe it'll be faster than viz volumes too#since it's 2 in 1 basically - I think it's really great since I save some money but get LoV chapters every time#because they appear every 2 books at the start of the series and back then it was hard for me to get them#but I felt content seeing all the books that I bought when I was visiting family for holidays this month because there are so many of them#and I don't need any wi-fi or internet in general to read them back to back now with an addictional volume#they have some mistakes but I don't mind them it feels good to just hold all of them (and a bit heavy after like 8 books) and now it's 18

It seems Caul has seen the Miss Peregrine‘s movie. So I made this
#why he wasn‘t in the movie is not something i‘m wondering btw#it kinda makes sense cause we don‘t really know when the movie started to be in production and also hollow city only has a little bit of—#—caul and los was being written while the movie was still in production and came out before the movie but very much too late for burton to—#—include caul#also the movie was mostly based on the first book#even if its second half is entirely inaccurate to the book :/#i do have other ACTUAL concerns about the movie though#but that’s for another post#mphfpc#caul bentham#miss peregrines home for peculiar children#art#library of souls#mphfpc movie

I'ts like there's a rope attached to my chest and it keeps pulling me towards you. And it feels so right. - Red, White and Royal Blue (2023)
"On purpose. I love him on purpose." - Red, White and Royal Blue, chapter 13, by Casey McQuiston
#rwrb#rwrbedit#red white and royal blue#firstprince#it's a different place in the book but rewatching i felt the expressions on henry's face show this description by bea from the book so well#and yeah im a bit sad we didnt get this quote directly in the movie but all the intention alex felt was there!#he was already in love. on purpose!!#and henry is panicking bc he worries about everything but cares too much for alex too#im just rlly happy we get to see more scene's from henry's POV bc that was rlly missing in the book and we only caught glances#from people around him but now we can actually see it and it was done so well#rwrb book#rwrb spoilers#rwrb movie#prince henry fox mountchristen windsor#alex claremont diaz#henry x alex#mine#gif:rwrb#gif:movies#lgbt#lgbtedit#lgbtq

wanted 2 compare my old joffrey design w the way I draw him now...not much changed besides the fringe but I feel like he has a different vibe now idk
#my art#asoiaf#1st version is a bit more book accurate ig but I like the other one better so idc#I mean besides the fringe. ignore that#I kinda miss the fringe actually...I dont miss drawing it bc it was annoying but. it was my brand...#this feels like what the character actually looks like vs the yaoified version but in reverse#I think I drew his forehead to big here ops. I dont feel like fixing it#he has his father's receeding hairline 🥺

Now that season 2 of good omens is only about a month away and everyone waiting has already watched season 1 and read the book multiple times, may I suggest something to tide you over while waiting:
When the Angels Left the Old Country by Sacha Lamb! Featuring an angel and a demon best-friend pair going on a trip together and being very confused by humans and their weird ways! It is very good!
The general tone is pretty humorous and light-hearted, the characters are fun, the mythology is fun, it’s all very jewish and very queer but light on romance (there’s an f/f subplot though!). The plot is less apocalyptic than Good Omens (they’re looking for a missing girl, not trying to stop armageddon) but equally as engaging.
In short: read When the Angels Left the Old Country, please, I beg of you, it deserves so much love
#when the angels left the old country#good omens#this is equally a suggestion to help the wait and a desperate appeal for more people in general to read wtaltoc#its one of my favorites its so so good#hmm should i start a tag for just talking about books?#i used to have one i think but i havent used it in years#but ive been doing a bit more book talk lately#and i'm tempted to amp it up#sighs wistfully. i miss talking about books to the void#anyway if you hop on this post to complain about gaiman I'm blocking you#i like both books and this is a recomendation not a competition#nella talks books
