There are worms in my head

I resent the idea that Jews are the canary in the coal mine of fascism because the canary is supposed to die

Oh so how about Scaled Herbalist!Zuko?

Miyuki sometimes carries Zuko/Spirit around like a kitten when they're still small.

It's slightly annoying when they steal her favorite sun spot. But they caught a mouse for her as an apology.

The soldiers that come to the herbalist are very concerned about the new pet, that reacts to the same name as her kid that keeps disappearing for some reason.

I hope this makes sense. Sorry for any mistakes.

"I told you," the tiny talking lizard says, "I'm a Spirit."

"Uh," says the Fire Nation solider whose chest is under his teenie-tiny claws.

"Now," it says, and it's impressive how much menace it can exude with the slow cattish undulations of its tail, or the way its little fluffy mane starts standing up hair by hair, "are you going to let me change your bandages, or will I need to burn out an infection?"

Its teeth are like needles and the soldier has a very good view of them. Its breath is very very warm and smells not unlike a coal fire.

"...Could you have opposable thumbs, first?" the man asks.

"Miyuki says thumbs are for the weak."

Teeth and claws approach the his face. The soldier whimpers, as eight ounces of baby dragon start methodically mauling his bandages off.

Everyone wants to talk about the war crimes but not the fact that Dooku's solar sailer makes him the only green energy ecofriendly villain in the Star Wars saga.

wip. gideons stupid smug face

was briefly possessed to draw some wembley art again, featuring hastily redesigned freight! notes under cut

i tried to keep the futuristic vibe and make their designs more individualized. i also kept with slade's design prompt—no train resemblance, and little/no napier design language

why is lumber green? because trees are green and he's into sustainable logging. i was aiming for a casual park ranger/forestry outfit. he wears his suspenders properly when he's working, but they're otherwise down. he has climbing gaffs (insp by @/honey-dont) and wears high top skates w/ the tongue down for ankle mobility

porter is a woman because when i first heard of her i thought she'd be female. so my version of porter has transitioned (she/her)! i intended her outfit to suggest welder or mechanic. she has lots of minor burn scars! she also wears low-cut derby skates because she likes to be FAST. she zips up her jumpsuit when working

slick is relatively unchanged because i think the bulky athletic costume fits her quite well. it's slightly modified to more resemble a hazmat suit or oil rig uniform. she & hydra are both tankers, so they share some outfit similarities

hydra is blue because 1) they swapped colors w/ lumber, and 2) they're a cryogenic tanker, and cryogenic aprons are blue. also blue just works better because he's cold. he has the tail for balance and because he thinks it looks cool. they're hi-vis because they want to show off, and for safety, because you would NOT want to crash into a hydrogen tanker. also he's nonbinary (they/he)

thank you stex artists & writers discord because thats where i got the idea for green lumber & blue hydra from!!!! it is genius!

also idk if they still have their backpacks. probably only when they're working?

I know you did coalecroux but more coalecroux please

Of course I can do more Coalecroux!

I will die on this hill that Kremy has big forearms like an actual chef would. He’s been cooking for YEARS so he was bound to develop at least a little bit of muscle. Maybe Gideon was a little starstruck the first time he saw him with his sleeves rolled up (It’s never lost its magic though).

Gid could still toss him tho…

[luna-the-cretar]

After the events of ouaw, I imagine Kremy would start Carnivale Lecroux back up (he would even promote it as “the NEW and IMPROVED Carnivale Lecroux!”, even though it’s just barely improved). He’s actually paying his employees in money now, rather than IOUs (because he would not like a repeat of last time, thank you very much). Granted, it’s not a LOT of money, maybe a gold piece or two every other week, but hey! It’s money!

As far as actual jobs around the Carnivale go, things are mostly unchanged.

Torbek’s been bumped up to helping Gideon with security, as well as the usual rescue/climbing on things. Sometimes he helps run the games, but he’s usually left alone in the shadows.

Gricko runs a miniature petting zoo, in which the animals involved are Hootsie and his spirits made corporeal. Every other hour, Gricko will pull out his ocarina, and the spirits will dance around and entertain guests while Hootsie is doing her little jig and looking cute (this is also the performance he does in the “Big Top” at the end of each night. He is by far the favorite amongst children).

Gideon’s role has been mostly unchanged. He is both the repairman and security (however if Gideon is currently busy with repairs, Torbek helps with the security aspect). He is almost never seen around the games or rides beyond either talking to whoever is running them, or repairing them. He also has a performance in the “Big Top”, which is a lot like his performance in the Witchlight Carnival (where he lights his chains on fire and makes a big show of it), and he is usually the last show of the night

Kremy is, of course, the owner, so most of his work is handled in his trailer (which is another improvement the Carnivale has made, though this only applies to each member of the Krew). He handles most of the ordering, profits, and the like. When he’s not doing that, he can be found wandering the Carnivale, talking to his friends, not-so-subtly watching his husband work, or bossing his other employees around (or being yelled at by angry customers). At the end of the night, while he does not necessarily have an act of his own, he does introduce each act before they’re performed at the “Big Top” (which, btw, is just a large ring in the dirt surrounded by cheap wooden benches. They used to have a tent, once, but, well…you have a lot of risks when your husband is a fire genasi and his main act is throwing his fire around. Coincidentally, this is also the same day where Kremy moved Gid’s act to the end, rather than the beginning)

Frost, like Kremy, works mostly behind the scenes. He helps Kremy with the legal paperwork (lawsuits and the like), since Frost seems to enjoy that sort of thing whereas it gives Kremy a headache. When Frost isn’t doing that, he is either in the local town grocery shopping, or is wandering the Carnivale and talking to Gricko or Torbek if they’re not busy. He doesn’t have an act of his own, but he will still be found by the “Big Top” by the end of the night, looking for any issues or suspicious figures, and mentally letting Kremy and/or Gideon know if he senses that something has gone awry.

As far as trailers go, only the main Krew have them. Frost, Torbek, and Gricko each have their own trailer, whereas Kremy and Gideon share a larger trailer (Kremy argued it was to save money, but considering the noises that come from that trailer throughout the night, they all knew that was a lie). There’s very little space in each trailer, but they serve their primary function (plus, it beats sleeping on the ground). There’s also a communal cooking pot in the center of the living area, though very rarely does anyone other than Kremy use it (and he usually cooks enough for just about all of the staff to eat at least one plate of food, so there’s very little complaint there).

goyish leftists will graffiti the most random-ass bathroom walls, skip classes to sit on their asses while barring Jewish students from accessing campus buildings, donate to obvious fucking scams that likely fund human trafficking, cut off their Jewish friends if they dare to have an ounce of backbone or boundaries or nuance, harass Jews and Jewish institutions, cheer on terrorist organizations that actively harm and kill both Jews and Palestinians, and even fucking rewrite historical events* before genuinely helping Palestinians, voting for the one candidate that would’ve most likely actually helped get us a ceasefire rather than fucking glassing Gaza, or even just shutting up and LISTENING to those who are most affected by this conflict.

*(remember when y’all called Oct 7th “exhilarating” and a glorious act of resistance? And now you’re all saying that no, actually, Oct 7th marks the day that Israel started genociding Palestinians, despite Israel not even responding militarily til days later? Or—wait no—this genocide has actually been happening since 1948! What’s the truth here????)

[way-too-obsessed-gamer]

Tbh if you are trying to find good irl references for Gideon's body type (at least the way i like drawing him) looking up "olympic weightlifting" or "olympic shot put" or even "strongman competition" are all good ones to look at. And avoid "body builder", since often they aren't even going for strength and instead just getting insanely low body fat percentages (cowards). Like here this is what I'm talking about;

Like you understand what I'm saying. Even with his new art on the shop he kinda already looks like this

You understand. You see my vision

[ouaw-facts-i-just-made-up]

Gideon had to relearn to ask for things, suggest things, say no to things, and even do certain things without permission or being told to do it.

After a few weeks of sitting and doing nothing whenever him and Kremy were done traveling or conning for the day, Kremy nearly begged him to do *something*, "read a book, skip rocks, I don't care, just stop staring at me for instructions!"

He started tinkering with what little tools Kremy had on him, and discovered he actually quite liked working on things. Upgraded his manacles, fixed up some of Kremy's broken items, he even liked making little paracord bracelets.

It was the beginning of his journey to relearning autonomy. He doesn't have to do anything he doesn't want to, and he can indulge in things he likes to do.

I love how your acc has just kinda went "ghosts, but what if dnd as well"

It actually went from unruly god-like human venturing the underground, a ghost boy that cause a scene unintentionally in his hometown, and dnd of a bunch of fruity men who keep making unnecessary shitty deals (poor bastards don’t got a single brain cell)

Now that I think about it, these two kids would be the ones to save his ass. How embarrassing that he has literal children bailing him and his husband Kremy out of danger

Peter Dutton's Nuclear plan is a sham, it's just an excuse to keep coal and gas going longer.

The modelling says 2 billion extra tonnes of carbon dioxide will be released into the atmosphere if Peter Dutton's Nuclear plan goes ahead.

The power won't be ready until sometime in the 2040s,

600 billion dollars is what it'll cost,

and that'll provide provide 4 percent of Australia's energy needs.

It's just a joke.

[kremy-lecroux]

isn’t the lecroux name teeeecchhhnically also your husbands…? 👀

just saying….

Well obviously us gettin' married was ironic, so it's also pretty ironic that we don't currently share a last name! Cuz it's like.... We're married, but the document never said anythin' about exchangin' names, so, legally, I'm still Kremy Lecroux and he's still Gideon Coal, so... It's almost like we aren't even married... But we are... Ahem, plus Gideon Lecroux just. Sounds wrong!

Torbek's drawing

All credit goes to the TheGreat_Andini on twitter. I just made it digital, the best I could, anyway.

I'd buy a framed print of Torbek's art if the Avantris shop sold it.
