nothing (besides everyone ignoring Orym's deal) has made me angrier than watching Dorian keep up this facade. Dorian Storm has always been a type of mask he's worn. At first he called himself a liar because of it. The happy go lucky bard was a way of escaping for him. He was escaping Brontë so he created Dorian. He didn't believe he was Dorian. Until the Crown Keepers made Dorian real. And for a while, he really believed he was Dorian. That he has this new family and new life and he could be who he truly wanted to be.
And then his brother came back and made his problems Dorian's problems. Until he had to put Brontë back on. Because even if the Crown Keepers + Cyrus called him Dorian, he was Brontë. He had to be who his brother thought he was.
When Cyrus dies, the thread to Brontë had snapped. He was going to see Orym, back to the Bells Hells, back to Dorian Storm. But the foundation of Dorian had shattered. Dorian was created in order to run from his place in life, family, Cyrus. Now he was gone. The Crown Keepers had fallen apart. His friends fell through his fingers and he couldn't do anything to stop it. He was once ready to side with a betrayer god for these people and now they're in the wind.
So Dorian shows back up to Bells Hella and he's completely broken. The foundation of both of his lives has been thoroughly rocked. No brother. No Crown Keepers. The two things that forged Dorian Storm. He wears that mask so fucking well. Because he still wants to believe in it. He said it live on stage that he should "believe his own backstory". The one he made up. The one where he was a bard.
He wants to be Dorian so bad. He spends all his money on Orym, he spins the bottle so he can kiss his friends, he flirts, he blushes and giggles at compliments. Exactly how Dorian would, should.
But he wears the gold of the heir. He has a festering animosity inside his chest. He doesn't sleep. He's thinner than he was. He doesn't sleep. He sicks abominations after their creators. He talks to God's without an ounce of self preservation, daring them to strike him down. He does not acknowledge them as they taunt him.
The god of beauty and magic calls him beautiful and he does not smile.
#silver sending stones#cr spoilers#cr 3 e 107#dorian storm#got carried away in both the post and the tags again#this was supposed to be an add on from those tags yesterday#but i went off the fucking rails so hard im gonna have to make another post#and listen.#i know people are ✨ multifaceted ✨#but i think its interesting to peel apart the layers of dorian storm.#because i do think all of this is just dorian.#like the rest of us he would not be here if not for his family. his brother. the crown keepers. bells hella.#he is informed by the things that happened in the past. none of these identities could have happened on their own#but if we're looking at the arch as a whole#theres the bronte era. the dorian era. and then era where they got very muddy. and the era now.#i dont feel like he's suddenly a secret third person now#but you know how we all look at the past versions of ourselves and wonder how theyd feel about us now?#dorian just has names for them#and because there was a mixing of both his lives i think dorian is having a hard time reconciling into one#he tries very hard to be both himselves#the man contains multitudes for sure#and idk i just keep picturing him as a little bronte. and exu dorian is smiling and singing with him. he tells him all about their friends#and current dorian looking at them. afraid to approach. afraid theyll ask about their future. afraid to tell them.#but theyd probably figure it out. hes wearing gold after all.

read up on natlan just now (since i quit gnshn since ~4.4 and am out of the loop, lit only watched that teaser yesterday w no info bc anon mentioned capitano)
and what it and some characters are actually based on/taking inspiration from (deities etc from different cultures) its really really bad now that i fully realize the story/info behind in connection with the characters i saw yesterday. we already mentioned how pale everyone is (again) and i didnt dare mentioning im disappointed w the archons design (not what i expected) to not attract unwanted arguments but the whole deity borrowing and blatant disrespect... sumeru was already a mess and they still havent learned a bit at all. dont steal or take insp of a culture and exclude the people, its the same thing all over again. sorry to the affected ppl, i hope they realize they really messed up (again) and make changes
#again like i said yesterday im not surprised at all and its tiring#if they dont wanna rep a culture properly or accurately then why do it....its sumeru again#iwasnt entirely surprised bc they did that before but i did expect smth different than what i saw#disappointing bc i liked two but the rest was nothing what i expected#i currently quit bc of lack of interest and time and energy but now i rlly dont know if i wanna return now that i#read up and informed myself abt the things behind it and its eugh#tbd#babbles

"I was laughing but at the same time I really wanted to give El a hug, I felt so bad for her"
Edelgard: Thank you for your concern but I am quite alright now.
Um, what's going on with this?
Byleth: Hey, I'm not complaining. Ever since we got together my squat game has been insane. My ass has never looked so good.

Sunless Sea is a great background-of-a-party game to play bc I put it on the TV and occasionally yell "~oh peanut gallery~!" when a plot choice is available and everyone gets so excited to make a decision with no information whatsoever
Also, when it comes to Pigmote Island, the rats have a 100% favor rate over the cavies which is hilarious. Below: real flier in my neighborhood rn and apparently the prevailing sentiment of Bostonians
#fallen london#sunless sea#if someone asks i do give a brief explanation. most people have more fun making decisions with no information though#qr code leads to a local band#feel free to use that photo in your FL moodboards#roommate hosted a boardgame party yesterday but i have precisely 1 boardgame per day in me

salvaged from the office fire in 1998
#my art#the x files#dana scully#fox mulder#alex krycek#i was talking about this on twitter yesterday but#i have a LOTTTTTT a lot of thought about this part of season two#mainly because i think that while scully probably realized she was never going to find peace ever again after emily#i do believe that the last time mulder ever thought everything would be okay was right before scully’s abduction#which is also kind of why i think mulder was closer to killing himself in ascension than in gethsemane#at the end of season four mulder is kind of resigned to his and scully’s lives unravelling#he’s more suspicious and slower to trust then he ever was#while ascension was the first time he was like. Oh okay. It’s over for us forever and ever#and the fact that he was still open and still kind of okay before that just kind of makes it worse#that he was just betrayed and left hanging and lost everyone he thought he had in one fell swoop#ascension jades the fuck out of him and you can see it. like through the whole series there are threads of it#his tendency to rely on skinner regresses for a while. he becomes even less functional when scully is gone.#he has far less patience for his informants and he refuses to rely on anyone the way he tried to on krycek#like it’s just. such an obvious shift in his character that you can tell his mindset about his and scully’s life has changed#and that’s a huge part of the show’s tragedy i think. there is no peace. there is no rest. it’s never going to be okay

when louis threw the blood at the stolen painting, he also should have done that to marius' ugly painting or set it on fire
the thing about that scene is that I think it isn’t any coincidence that he nearly gets armand in the head when he tosses the bowl violently. louis is really upset about the fact that armand facilitated his daughter’s murder. but I agree with the sentiment that he feels protective of armand - I just think the show didn’t go those places because they intend to tackle armand’s history later and they didn’t want to detract from louis’s and claudia’s story. besides if the museum scene was any indication armand has very complicated feelings about his maker so he might have had as much a hand in its placement in the dining room as louis who seems interested in collecting art and understanding vampire history. sorry I made this post more serious than you probably meant it to be.
#but.#I just saw a good post yesterday-ish that mentioned how louis is the most empathetic character on the show. when claudia tells him about#being sexually assaulted he offers to kill her abuser for her. when lestat tells him about his traumatic turning he chooses to believe him#despite lestat previously choosing to withold a lot of information from him.#I’m sure he was also very careful about handling armand’s history. when he calls him arun on the bench he’s essentially offering to take#care of armand.#asks#anonymous#loumand#interview with the vampire

I adore the mom in Poltergeist. When the chairs start moving she's cancelling dinner plans and marking the floor to test it and get repeated results. When the family is trying to stay calm in the aftermath when their youngest daughter Carol-Ann is missing, she's very matter-of-fact with the paranormal researchers. This woman adapts and gets things done, but she also has her moments of fear and gets emotional when she makes contact with the specter of Carol-Ann. I love the dad too, he is demonstrably soft with his kids - being the one to go comfort them during the storm - and he's silly when he's having fun, but also strong and action-oriented when he climbs the tree and dives into the pool to protect them. Like I know this is a classic horror film lauded for many other reasons but man what lovely and layered portrayals? It was really the first thing that registered for me, the genuine feel of the characters and the emotional connections between them, and it's a great foundation for the rest of it to build on. It feels like a family of real people who care about each other and that's why it matters when upsetting things happen.
#for context I watched The Happening yesterday and this is informing some appreciation for layered character portrayals and connections 😂#movies#poltergeist#op#sidenote I also appreciate they didn't pick some nagging conflict between the couple when there is plenty of good tension to be had elsewhe#like trying to be normal when there is a room in your house that is full of Entities and also your disembodied daughter probably#while trying to pretend everything is fine for visitors#like 'ah shit the piano is moving i gotta shove him out the door'

#yesterday i had to apply to the biggest local convention#which i am doing badge art for and have been unofficially assured i was attending for months#and they fucked up their website so badly it literally beamed every vendor's personal information to everyone else applying#150 people were editing the same cart live it was a fucking nightmare#i had to pay them 300 dollars for the privilege of hoping their show helps me make rent that month#i have to pay this printer even more than that so i can get no communication about a whole box of books that might be unsellable#i want. anybody to fucking do their job#why do i worry so much about trying to run a tight ship if the only places i can take it are Like This lmfao

You versus the guy she tells you not to worry about
#i did look this up a few hours after i reblogged that post yesterday(? or was it the other day) I DO BELIEVE IT'S SHELLEY#if only for the fact that it was for most of a century being identified as LEIGH HUNT instead! yeah right#that is not leigh hunt in 1822#i recommend googling the uva library article about it. it shows the full portrait which the telegraph does not in its preview#and that one is also behind a paywall so i couldn't even reeeead it#thank you university of virginia <3#it is not slacking for information btw. there's a forthcoming article by the person who propisitioned that this is shelley#i look forward to it#percy shelley#art#william edward west#romanticism#portraits#sorry amelia curran. your painting is still better than i could do#but i am feral at the thought of having such a professional likeness#THAT IS A REAL MAN BEFORE US#with such believable and realistic features#i want to believe#i know without a proper title given by the painter we'll never really know#but i a million times will accept this is shelley before i accept that the cobbe portrait is shakespeare lol#whenever i see that being published as shakespeare im like. sir. that's clearly thomas overbury#chandos portrait stans rise#sorry i dont often post about it but i am obsessed with likenesses of famous ppl especially disputed ones#especially disputed ones before the innovation or proliferation of photography!!! cuz wow!!!!

love to see the phf build something incredible from the ground up, work their asses off to improve player conditions and salaries and expand, all just for them to be fucked over by a league that has constantly disrespected and belittled them — and is acting the same way in the absolutely despicable nature of this buyout. pwhpa players getting priority contracts, phf players finding out at the same time as the public, and there being less teams than the phf so there is inevitably job loss for players and staff alike … just fucking shitty. a united league is fine, but so far, this does not seem like unity. this seems like a coup.
#i’m not pleased lmfao#i got the email about six season tickets YESTERDAY. like this came out of NOWHERE.#phf#i want this post to sound stupid with more information! i want to be wrong!#but i am not hopeful!#update: with more information i am just also pissed at the phf board

just finished the second season of black sails and i gotta say i understand why it makes queers go feral
#i’m frothing at the mouth#black sails#i watched the first season yesterday and didn’t really enjoy it much#the pacing is really weird the characterisation was shallow at best and the whole thing stank of game of thrones levels of forced edgyness#but man the second season slapped so hard full 180 turnaround#the flashbacks were expertly crafted all major characters have relatable motives and they pull through ruthlessly#their fatal flaws are right there and like a greek tradgedy it all happens exactly how it must#in revealing it’s nature as a character study of flint and of what broke him so utterly the pacing actually becomes so poignant and perfect#with each new bit of information we’re given we understand his urgency his ruthlessness his unwavering calm hatred#he’s turned himself into a proper fucking monster and it’s tragic because it could only have ever gone this way#there’s no way out and the show being a prequel we know he lives we know he can’t win#actually doomed by the narrative in the worst/best way#but by god i just want his to set the world aflame

I DIDNT . REALISE YOU HAVE OCS. GIVE
[crawls out of a hole wiht dirt caked up under my nails, covered in blood and coughing up violently] I'm a mentally ill queer on tumblr, of course I have OCs!
i also want to preface this by saying im writing it while watching a show and listening to a song on repeat. dunno how coherent this'll be
Okay, so! There are, like. An endless number of little guys is living in my brain. So. The one I'll present here is the 'verse I've been doodling obsessively for two days and which got beamed into my head during a six hours nap literally yesterday.
So, literally the base for this is that They Have Wings, but, um. Make it complicated.
The first recorded mutations have no really known date, but they've been around for long enough that we had centuries worth of data surrounding them, and so we can observe their evolution. The most common mutation is simply winged individuals, following the schemas of birds found in nature. Therefore, there are multiple categories of individuals based on which species they're the closest to, but they're also categorized by the type of mutations they're affected by, eg if they only have the usual wings, the size and function of said wings, the presence or absence of a tail, having more than one pair of wings, etc.
Mutations are visible since birth, except for some rare ones that develop later in life, although there has been a slight increase of those in the latest years.
Not all winged individuals are capable of flight. It greatly depends on the size, anatomy and placement of the wings. Some mutations also bring out disabilities, like when wings replace the individual's arms, or when a small pair of wings replace the ears and render the individual deaf (regarding this, a modified sign language is available to those people where then can use their wings for punctuation, intonation and such, for which people without this additional feature have to use their face only. This addition makes it easier for people who struggle with facial expressions to communicate).
Regarding wings' sizes, there are MANY existing possibilities. Some individuals have proportioned wings that allow them to fly just fine, those sort of common. Some have small wings that do not allow them to fly, and they are still a major part of the population. Some are subject to gigantoalastia, a pathology that causes a GREAT disproportion, making the wings gigantic. These individuals are capable of flight, which requires a lot of effort, but need to do a lot of stretching and back muscular reinforcement because it causes lots of back pain.
The fashion industry is hell, btw. Like if you have gigantoalastia or if wings replaced your arms, your clothing options are quite limited.
Non-winged humans still exist! Around 12-13% of world population is not affected by any kind of mutation. But! That number is actually decreasing, slowly. We might be looking at an all-winged population in a few days or centuries. Mutations are also starting to make individuals more and more birdlike, with characteristics like tails or bird feet. Some beaked individuals have also started to make their appearance, with characteristics developing after birth. Scientists are wondering what this means for the future of our species, and also begs the question of our ancestors!
Both these questions greatly distress people btw. Religious groups primarily. They're divided in different factions, some think at the beginning we were all non-winged humans and that we're evolving towards something holy, some think that at the beginning we were something Other and we lost our whatever-privileges along the way and are only able to reclaim them now. Ofc then there's also exclusion, thinking that non-winged individuals should all be killed, that certain mutations should be wiped out, yk. All that. Which is not even especially religious but can also just be bigotry/eugenics. YK.
OH YEAH ALSO MALFORMATIONS!!!! Disability has of course been Thought About. Some people are born with malformed wings and so fundamentally unable to fly. Other mobility aids are more or less equal to those we have today but flight ones are harder to come by and also hard to design.
Also also sometimes people like to customize their wings with piercings and such :3 dyes are also a thing but temporary because of. Well. Shedding.
(theres supposed to be like. two main guys but actually i thought about the whole entire world before even finding their names. so all you get to know is that they're gay and in a toxic relationship . because thats my brand)
#mine#rambling!!#a gets an ask???#additional information: ive got something drawn for most of those things :3#idk this is still very rough. as i said. this got beamed into my brain during a six hours nap yesterday.
