#it was in fact Not A Fracture

[ourlittlebear]

Can my wrist just heal!!! I miss weightlifting!!!! And my wrist hurts ALL THE TIME

So yeah you know how a fall on your wrist (or having your wrist bent backwards when having an impact injury) is like, the cause of all bad wrist injuries but generally they go "oh ye that's a fracture" or "oh ye that's a bad sprain"

Well how about tearing a fucking ligament? A tfcc tear? It's a lil legit triangle of ligaments and cartilage in your wrist that helps stabilise the ulnar side of your wrist. I now can't hold plates. I can't rotate my wrist so my palm is facing upwards. Its a struggle to turn door handles, hold my phone, or hold anything that needs the support of my little finger and the outer side of my palm. And it is THOROUGHLY DUMB AND I DON'T LIKE IT

Woah what’s this? A drawing post that’s not like a month after the last one? Impossible

No but fr South Park’s TFBW has something in it cause it like cured my art block and now all I want to do is draw the little guys.

So here are some random drawings I did to practice rendering cause it’s been a while since I’ve properly done it.

The dude on the left is a Paul Perkins design for a Swap!The Guy Who Didn’t Like Musicals AU- I’ve had the idea for a while and I’ll probably have an actual post detailing that sooner or later. (Featuring Cringe Girlfailure Emma Mathew’s and King of the Sassyman apocalypse Paul Perkins)

Also featuring my New Kid- though I started drawing this when I was like 1/3 into the game so her design changed a bit, I’ll probably also draw more of her.

ah ok so after years of fighting Trigon’s influence, rejecting violence & prioritising the safety of others, choosing to be a decent compassionate person… her moral compass is now entirely dictated by what Gar would want for her ??

The Characters of Fractured Magic

Roman Hallisey

Roman is one of the main characters of Fractured Magic, the linchpin that connects all the others. He's cheerful and flirtatious, but it hides a darker side and a dangerous history. Despite that, and despite everything he's been through, he's relentlessly optimistic and cares deeply.

Leandros Nochdvor

Leandros is the other main character, Roman's love interest, and the first character we meet in Fractured Magic. His people encourage repressing emotions, but he's never been any good at that and is led by them instead: by his love for the hero Egil, by his anger at his uncle's kidnapping. But mostly by spite.

Dinara Condeh

Dinara is the rising star of the Webhon Players, a traveling acting troupe. she has compassion for everyone around her, but unfortunately, she also has horrendous taste in men. After a few failed flings, she discovers what's important, conquers her fears, and goes on to help lead a revolution.

Maebhe Cairn

Born to be a tiktok e-girl, forced to journey through a dangerous forest to warn her people of an oncoming war instead 😔 Maebhe is the queen of being in the wrong place at the wrong time, but damned if she won't rise to the responsibility and make the most of it.

Kieran Cairn

Kieran is the more level-headed of these identical twins while also being the more high-strung. His anxious streak is the only thing keeping him from matching his sister's chaos. He'd do anything for Maebhe or his fiance, Íde.

These two like to play a variant on the "Which of us is Hikaru?" game that I like to call "Which of us is the trans twin?"

Evelyne Corscia

Evelyne is very much an oppositional force in Fractured Magic, an old enemy of Roman's and a (mysterious) employee of the state. She keeps her motives secret, is NOT here to make friends, and will complete her mission, no matter who she has to hurt.

Indeed, no one can sway Evelyne from her mission - except for maybe Leandros, who aggressively befriends her. Or Roman, who she does actually still care a bit about. Or a very stubborn girl with long eyelashes named Thea who won't leave her alone. Or any passing stranger asking very nicely, really. Truth is, she might be kind of soft under that prickly exterior.

Mercy

Mercy IS the inciting incident of Fractured Magic. She makes a dramatic appearance in chapter one, reeking of death and using magic in a world where magic is only myth, and kidnaps a king. Only Leandros and his cousin survive the strange encounter. But who is she? Where did she come from? Where did she get her strange power?

Tellaos

The (alleged) villain of Fractured Magic, Tellaos is one of three angel-like beings created by the god of Calaidia to watch over its people. After being used as a scapegoat by the other two and getting locked in a human body on top of that, though, Tellaos is not feeling so generous.

But of course, he has more to him than that. For example, he's also #1 wife guy and would do anything for Mercy, his beloved.

Devikra Stormsong

More commonly known as the Oracle of Damael, Devikra is always flitting at the periphery of big events, and her visions predict the future - with a catch. She'll do anything to protect her people, including keeping secrets from them - and boy, does she have a lot of those.

And that's our main cast! As a reminder, you can read Fractured Magic FOR FREE on my website. Even better, if you subscribe, you'll get new chapters sent straight to your email.

hmm. magnus musings. this is a bit dense and extremely fluffy information.

• he likes havings peircings/jewelry for the weight it adds, and the feeling when he moves (on top of the cultural normalcy of it). it helps him stay focused and confident, as its a reliable consistent stimulus. he consistently keeps an eyebrow ring, at least a single large peircing on each ear, and a snug set of bangles around his neck, horns, wrists, and ankles. he is fine with rings on his fingers, but they can be a bit overwhelming and arent as commonly seen in the primarch's casual days.

• he is a very gregarious individual (when hes not deep in focus on whatever hes studying at the time), and loves to actually physically touch the people hes socializing with! its normally just a firm touch on the arm or shoulder, or a hug after a conversation has finished. he became more withdrawn post-heresy, and instead you will see him wringing his hands together in one-on-one conversation, or other self-regulating fidgets...

• self-regulation, other than the many bits of jewelery he adorns himself with, falls a lot on his hair. he busies himself by wrapping the locks between his fingers, or combing his digits through a dense part of it. he also enjoys ponytails/hair wrappings, but has had issues of it being too tight in the past, and prefers to do his own hairstylings. you will also see him popping joints regularly, his shoulders and fingers being popular targets.

• the daemon primarch, while intensely more withdrawn, still yearns intensely for the open social atmosphere he grew up surrounded by. he lacks the ability (or the guts) to voice it, and has (embarassingly, he feels) grown meek from the loss and pain. if this is brought to attention, he will rebuke the claim and insist hes grown to be strong enough to leave companionship behind. this goes poorly for him, further isolating himself from potential interpersonal relationships he needs... wait, who said he needed friendship?! no, thats an inane mockery to everything he is, he alone got himself to this power!

• being splintered into many fractures has caused a plethora of issues for magnus' psyche. memory recall is one he can be seen becoming physically distressed when faced with it, clutching at his head frustratedly and avoiding conversation as a whole. ontop of all of the loss surrounding him, it seems his fracturing has even further buried him into depression and unrest. his mood ebbs and flows to the tune of manic conviction to abysmal uncertianty.

I dont necessarily think Ka'Mort was being antagonistic? It just felt like the opinion of a rock. You know... All the folks living up top, with their shit going on, and the rocks are just... chillin

Ka'Mort et al aint about to stop whats happening, and they wont enable the happening either

Theyre just... rock/stone.... patient as the day is long... they can wait out civilization, everything will turn to dust eventually

unfortunately if ashton wanted guidance from these guys, theyd be SOL. ashton is the rock in motion, if they wants to get this avalanche going, they needs to kick everything else awake

bc quite frankly... the rocks have lifespans in the MILLIONS of years... they dont move on the same time scale (which is the most ironic for the barbarian - impetuous and impatient as ashton tends to be)

parker spending that time talking to billy and the older man being baffled by her but also getting the vibe that she deeply cares for him and knowing that his son is in good hands

she constantly mentions her boyfriend named hardison and how they do stuff with eliot all the time and eliot’s our family and he’s been with us for over a decade and don’t worry we will always take care of him and we have the robot bodies ready

and billy is like 👀👀👀🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈???

The Blue Falcon

Trust the falcon

To preserve your song

Trust it's claws

To protect your wings

You prey to amuse

Your claws leave no room

For freedom

You put me on this stage.

To prance and spin.

Your sweetest fantasies to life

You bring.

You hunt to delight

Your speed leaves no room

For hope

You made me you bait.

A dance of endurance.

You took the song,

The songbird sang.

You maim the soul

Your abuse leaves no room

For trust

Trust the falcon

To consume your song

Trust the claws

To destroy your wings

Emrys

alright so I may have lied and gone on to watch leverage: redemption after all (had time to kill). and in light of that I shall now say:

(a) the comparison to Dark Matter makes much more sense to me now. The structure of the two shows is still very different, but I can see more of a thru-line in the less forgiving world, the group dynamics (trying to build trust while still lying to each other out of shame), more of a focus on redemption and penance, uncertainty about which side you belong on and if you can make up for what you've done before- I get it! Consider my previous position null & void in light of new evidence.

(b) on an unrelated but deeply held note: as a virtual twin, I really appreciate the adoption & fostering storylines in L:R. It’s a big pet peeve of mine when media that leans hard into the ‘found family’ angle winds up pushing really reductive views of adoption experiences (e.g. lumping group homes, foster families, and kinship care together into just ‘the system’, talking about ‘orphans’ as a homogeneous stock group of Tragic Children, relying on Secret Biological Relationships to generate drama for characters who previously didn’t seem to care about genetics). that bugs me!

so it was really refreshing to see to see a found-family centric show actually explore adoptive relationships like Breanna and Hardison’s (shared foster family) without devaluing them or repeatedly calling attention to the fact that they’re non-biological. Or Astrid being consistently referred to as Sophie’s daughter, including that exchange where Arthur asks ‘you believed her?’ and Astrid replies ‘she’s family’ as if the question is ridiculous on its face- because it’s clear that despite the lack of blood relation, both of them chose to define their relationship as mother/daughter instead of focusing on the 'step' separation.

and especially I love Eliot’s family storyline where he’s just like ‘yeah this is my dad. yeah he’s a different race. why are you acting like that's weird?? get over yourself' and then the rest of the episode just proceeds as normal without it coming up again. a worse show would center Eliot’s family conflict on the adoption itself but instead it is entirely irrelevant to their father/son dynamic- which makes absolute sense for somebody adopted in infancy who has only had one family for as long as they remember. cool show! good writing.

[and if there is a later plotline where eliot discovers his Secret Biological Parents and angsts about it I'm gonna start throwing stuff]

hc that throughout the years, jude takes leaves of absences form being high queen to go spend a couple months w vivi heather n oak !!! madoc too ig while he’s still exiled lol. ( vehemently ignoring the stolen heir’s canon sorry not sorry.) family bonding time, far away from the hubbub n chaos of the folk, n also the realization that jude doesn’t mind the mortal world all that much. yes it’s not faerieland, but it’s smth alright n she finds it soothing at times. she’s less unhinged n paranoid compared to when she was younger n the ptsd from her past has decreased in its intensity thanks to heather-mandated therapy ( heather only had to hear a couple times abt the duarte sisters’ fucked up childhood for her to plead jude to go to therapy—vivi alrdy has— n jude relented after 5 yrs of honest-to-god begging. big slay heather our mental health queen 🫂) and so that’s why she can even leave faerieland in someone else’s hands. these visits aren’t too frequent but they r long in their duration. 3-4 months tops. sometimes cardan comes along bcs the bed feels empty w/o jude n— Okay he’s js lonely w/o his wife. sue him. some poor hapless councilor advisor is forced to be in charge in their place (they send letters weekly. ‘please your majesties, when will you be returning home ?’ #urgent LOL) one day jude (age:37) notices grey hairs appearing on her head n she sort of freaks out. not in an entirely vain way either. more like:. oh fuck aren’t i supposed to not age as long as im in faeirieland ?? 3 long discussions later w cardan n the royal folk-human specialist, the conclusion that is reached is that bcs of jude’s visits to the mortal word, as infrequent as they r, theyve seemed to affect the way her body ages. or more aptly put, doesn’t age lol. jude gets some grey hair n lines on her face while still technically NOT aging. n she feels less panicky abt it bcs hey she’s not aging. sort of. meanwhile, cardan finds himself deeply enamored w jude’s grey hair n the subtle creases on her face that multiply slowly. he tells jude js so n she’s like i am not susceptible to flattery cardan greenbriar. hes Serious abt it tho n tells her that he isn’t saying that bcs it’ll make her feel better or wtv but bcs her aging evidently is actually beautiful to him. cue jude sour pursed lips for a bit as she gets these days when it comes to cardan being unbearably earnest towards her but she feels less weird abt the hair n lines so :)

anyways this was a long-winded niche asf hc that appeals to exactly only 2 ppl on this site n im not even confident in THAT estimate lol
