This is called the “Ring of John the Fearless”, depicting Jean sans Peur, Duke of Burgundy in the late 14th century. And if I had a hat that epic I’d be fearless too. 

[ID: The top of a ring, seen from above; the band is visible on either side. In the center is a profile of a man; his shirt is represented by a large emerald, topped by a strip of agate to represent a fur collar; his face is carved in detail in ivory, with a prominent nose and heavy-lidded eyes. His large, soft, and poofy hat, in jet, is adorned at the top with a ruby.]

The Formation of the Valois Burgundian Empire - John the Fearless

New blog post: Second in a four-part series

John the Fearless, Duke of Burgundy John the Fearless, the second Valois Duke of Burgundy, was born to Margaret of Male in Dijon on May 28, 1371. When his maternal grandfather, Louis, Count of Flanders died in 1384, John received the county of Nevers and up until the death of his father was known as John of Nevers. In 1385, Philip the Bold arranged a double marriage for two of his children in an…

Remembering John the Fearless

On September 10th 1419, Duke John of Burgundy rode with a small retinue to Montereau. Hopping down from his horse he proceeded alone and trusting onto the bridge into the waiting presence of the French dauphin and his guards. The duke adjusted his sword hilt to kneel in reverence before the dauphin with whom he had made peace. Duke John had no time to rise as guards rushed upon him weapons…

Speak Now is Taylor’s most neglected child and it makes me sad. I don’t think it’s intentional, I just think that there’s a lot of heaviness attached to it that makes revisiting it a bit painful.

Don’t get me wrong it’s absolutely shitty that Arthur can’t see and John has to describe everything to him but at the same time he’s not not seeing an entire city massacred or idk AMPUTATED ARMS MOVING ON THEIR OWN

With the Fearless Year of Shadow, I've been taking advantage of all these events pretty well...

On Sonic Dash I unlocked all of the Shadow's that are currently part of the event! (Working on getting Shadow himself right now)

I recently downloaded the Sonic Forces PvP mobile app (or whatever it's called), and I'm working on getting the Shadow's on there too.

On top of all of that, I played Sonic Forces (met my standards of an okay game) + the Shadow Episode (that made me really happy).

AAAAANNNNDDDDD I preordered Sonic x Shadow Generations‼️

I'm so happy that this year is all about Shadow!!! 🖤❤️

EXTRA NOTE:

I'm also going to try to watch all of the John Wick movies in honor of Keanu Reeves 🫶

After this I'll either finish Sonic X or rewatch Sonic Prime‼️‼️

(song doesn't really have any connection I just wanted to share one of my favorite bands 💚💎)

Reading the Episode Ten script again, mainly because I had it open the other day to double-check a specific quote, and there are so many wee things that are jumping out at me all over again.

The religious connotations of Goodsir's feet being the only "clean" part of him!

The fact that Crozier manages to signal to Hodgson and Diggle specifically not to eat their own portions of Goodsir while he's eating his!

This little quote: "Circuits are frying in Crozier's head but he continues to do this unthinkable thing with blind belief in a perfectly-named man called 'Goodsir'".

And finally, something that I'm only now realising I've not thought in depth about before - the fact that Tozer is the only one we see being actively betrayed and bonked on the noggin! We don't know how the others ended up in chains, in all fairness. We don't know if they were bonked too, if they fought back, or if they went quietly, albeit likely at gunpoint. The fact that his coercion is the only one shown says something incredible about Tozer's power and about how Hickey views him at that point in time, I think. He's clearly aware, if not outright scared, of what Tozer is capable of, how unpredictable he could be, how rapidly he's coming to his senses and escaping Hickey's control. He's painfully aware of the fact that he can't let that happen, not now. Like, they could've just held a gun to his face! Lord knows they have enough guns and loyal, desperate men to wield them! But the merest idea that even that wouldn't be enough to coerce him is just making me lose my goddamn mind! The idea that you could hold a gun to Solomon Tozer's handsome goddamn face at that point and it still wouldn't be enough to get him to do something he doesn't want to do...!
