History calls the struggle between King Aegon II and his half-sister Rhaenyra the Dance of the Dragons, but only at Tumbleton did the dragons ever truly dance.
Artist: @asoiafattherite
#valyrianscrolls#fire and blood#asoiaf#the dance of the dragons#addam velaryon#daeron targaryen#addam x daeron#addaeron#seasmoke#tessarion#dragons#otp: heart of a dragon#fanart#asoiaf art#obsessed with this masterpiece 😍😍#it's so perfect!!#I just love the concept of these two dancing#and dressed in their dragons colours#to signify their position as soldiers doomed to fight in a war#they'll die. their fate is sealed.#but they must keep dancing

shoes in FMA rated on how comfortable they'd be to fight in
Edward Elric
considering Ed's uhhh very distinct taste in aesthetics, these could be a lot worse. they look relatively comfortable and don't seem like they'd be difficult to move around in. they are platforms though, which I imagine makes things more difficult. I'll be generous and give these a 7/10
Most of the Amestrian military
pretty much everyone in uniform wears the same shoes, so I'm lumping them all together. these are Roy's, if that matters. they look fine. I imagine that because it is part of a military uniform, it's designed to be moved around in and worn for hours on end, so ideally they're relatively comfortable. it doesn't look like there's much traction, but they're usually fighting on flat surfaces so whatever. 8/10
Fu and Lan Fan
these shoes fucking rule. the picture I've included is Lan Fan's, but they wear p much the same shoes. I fucking love these things. they have spikes. Edward Elric fucking wishes. considering this seems to be part of the bodyguard uniform, I'd imagine they're as easy to run around in as the military shoes, if not better since they're expected to be doing martial arts in them. but most importantly, they have spikes. 10/10, no notes.
Ling and Mei
on the topic of doing martial arts, both Ling and Mei wear these.... I'm not sure what they are. flats? slippers? it's unclear. (EDIT: they are apparently Kung Fu shoes!) they seem relatively easy to move around in I guess since they're not very cumbersome and both Ling and Mei rely on being very nimble. they look like they have absolutely no support in the soles though, which is gonna get painful after a certain point. also depending on what fabric they're made of, they could definitely start chafing. I've worn flats. I know that hell. 7/10 for the potential blisters, but at least they're designed specifically for martial arts
Greedling and Bradley
it's hard to get a good shot in this scene because neither of them stop moving, but I swear to god, they're fighting in dress shoes. I cannot stand them. this CANNOT be comfortable. I know Greed prioritizes aesthetics over function so this was probably a compromise between his and Ling's tastes but ohhh my god. he was probably wasting so much of the philosopher's stone just passively healing the million blisters on his feet from running around in these things. there's a chance Bradley is wearing the military uniform shoes but I think he was in more formal dress when he got blown the fuck up, so I don't think so. no wonder he complains about being sore, quit running around in dress shoes you fucking moron. 4/10.
Greed
THESE FUCKING THIIIIIIIINGS. WHY ARE THEY POINTY AT THE END. WHY DOES IT LOOK LIKE SOMEONE HIT HIS FOOT WITH A MALLET AND FLATTENED THEM. he's so dumb. I love him. looking at these things tells me he would probably wear goth cowboy boots if he could, and tbh that would probably look better. 3/10 for Greed's overall silly as hell fashion sense
Lust
okay. the heels make sense considering her whole vibe. however. these are part of her fucking BODY. when she gets incinerated, they grow back. can she even take them off???? I'm scared to ask. I guess if theyre part of her body, she doesn't have to worry about adjusting to balancing in them like you would normally with heels, but oh my god. she can never wear normal shoes. I would also be murderous if I had to wear heels all the time. 4/10.
Father and Izumi
guys. these are sandals. it has been four hundred years and Father is still wearing the same outfit he was wearing in the damn desert. find a new outfit man. Izumi is apparently wearing bathroom slippers (hence the WC) so idk why she's even wearing those out of the house. Father gets 0/10 and Izumi gets 1/10 because she still manages to kick everyone's asses while wearing these, so respect
Envy
PUT YOUR FUCKING TOES AWAY. -10000000/10
#fma#fmab#don't take this too seriously I'm just playing around#the main inspiration for this post was the opportunity to pick on greed and envy lmao#I love the spikes on fu and lan fan's outfits so so much#they also have them on their gauntlet things and it rules#I think lan fan should get spiked brass knuckles#I feel bad ranking izumi so low but I do not know how she's fighting in sandals. ma'am. how do you keep them on your feet.#there are some others I didn't include#scar is wearing like. loafers kinda? just normal shoes#which is impressive considering he's on his feet p much all the time#and the briggs soldiers have different boots I think#but I didn't want this post to get too long unnecessarily

If Shalamayne were a Legion artifact weapon...
#so I was thinking about it and what might happen in the quests leading up to it#and I prefer Anduin keeping it but I feel exploring what it would take for him to part from it could#be very interesting way of furthering his character and letting him stand out as his own person#Maybe in the quest he sees the warrior player fight and it reminds him of his father#he says 'this sword saved me and my kingdom long ago#i want you to use it to save our world'#aND THEN i remembered that BFA exists and what that could mean if the player character was Horde#Anduin spotting the champion at Lordaeron using his father's sword to end the lives of alliance soldiers#a sick feeling overwhelming him bile in his throat at the sight of his father's legacy#in that moment he longs to have the sword back more then anything in the world#also i imagine after hearing anduin gave shala away Velen gifts Anduin a powerful staff to help protect himself against the legion#world of warcraft#anduin wrynn

tss strikes such a good balance between having the adults in the story be responsible and competent while also letting zak be the hero and be able to be powerful and participate in the world
like the talk doc has with zak in "the kur stone pt 2" where he explains why he thinks zak might be the only person who could defeat argost, but he also acknowledges how much pressure that's putting on him. doc and drew are so dedicated to not just sheltering zak no matter how much they might want to, they're always trying to train him and help prepare him for everything and stuff
it's just. doc and drew (and doyle) are so refreshing to see. so many children's cartoons will make the adults incompetent or practically nonexistent so that kids can feel strong and powerful and i just feel like tss lets zak be strong while also letting him lean on his family
#original series grandpa max isnt bad either from what i remember#genrex is different bc like. the whole 'literal child soldier' thing feels like a more apt critique of providence#bc rex is the only child in providence#and tbh they actively make his life worse LMAO#both keeping him sheltered and making him train to fight at the same time and making him all stir crazy#six and holiday are both like. competent and usually present but theyre also... not great at the whole parenting thing?#like holidays not bad. six is

to sum up my only negative feelings on orym: compared to the rest of them he feels super disjointed as a character because he gets amazing moments with the party when they're interacting as a whole. life-changing one-on ones! but every time he gets the idea of one thing just for him he walks away every time so nobody else will see it or only react to it after the fact. we're never gonna get a "shardgate into feywild retreat into fearne titan-ing" moment from him and i really think that sucks!
which okay, sure could be intentional since he preferred to be on the sidelines his entire life and is solidly Just There but that doesn't make it any less bizarre a character choice/bit to keep white-knuckle gripping onto over 100 episodes in. like he isn't a shitty character in the slightest nor do i think liam's roleplay is boring but COMPARATIVELY. comparatively i don't get why he's dedicating himself to being so low-key in solo moments when everyone else in the party is doing the roleplay equivalent of poppers with their characters when they get the same chance
#🍃#critical role#critrole#orym of the air ashari#and like his arc is supposed to be about realizing he's more than a faceless soldier and deserves a life outside fighting#because matt keeps pressuring to get him to go against his leaders time and time again#and he DOES! he's done it so often it's practically a running gag so the seeds are there#but asides those moments everyone's like Well He's Objectively Correct Because Ludinus Sucks#and he is but they don't push him on it because of that objective correctness#and it's like turned into a Prime God Argument thing when it really should be:#'hey man throwing your life away for people who would step on you without a second thought is Fucked actually'#ep 95-96 and 102 was his best eps. there i said it.

#op#one piece#op seraphim#s mingo#s snake#all the seraphim get flower names#these two had the easiest names to give haha#when they get to stop fight and grow up and do whatever they want <3 free from being giant child soldiers#though the concept of mingo still wanting to fight is v funny to me#“we should let rose decide!” rose: i want to fight and steal#thats why hes with the Heart pirates to keep him from causing too much chaos#he has a curfew now

Alright know what here's a little Guild Wars 2 reblog game for everybody; what mounts (if any) do your characters have in their canon, do they have names? Personalities? How'd they meet??
Spill it all below, tell me about all your creatures!!
#my posts#gw2#guild wars 2#thinking about this a lot lately since mine def do!#I'll start: Pirkko has branded mounts and while I haven't named most of them. they were all branded over by Aurene#because they'd been corrupted by Kralkatorrik and they wanted to see if Aurene's magic could purify them in some way#it usually didn't work but Pirkko keeps the ones they saved#Larimar is her skyscale. his egg was tainted by the Brand before he hatched so Aurene was barely able to save him#he's a chivalrous knight type and is known to be just as noble as the Commander who raised him. brave. bold. kind of a dork.#while the Commander is fighting he circles up above and swoops down to rescue injured soldiers from the front line#Saoirse meanwhile gets the SoTo skyscale egg and that hatches into Nightshade. he's fierce and protective too#but in a much more 'loyal guard dog' sort of way as opposed to trying to help everyone else as well. he's an axejaw!#in Regrowth Ceara gets Foxglove because the Commander and Gorrik could NOT manage this little troublemaker#she's too smart for her own good and is CONSTANTLY causing problems. so basically just like Ceara HDKDHDH#Foxglove's a lunarmane! and she's very fluffy and cute and will give you the big shiny eyes to mooch all your food. evil#Ruju meanwhile has a full cast of different mounts who all were troublemakers in different ways when he found them#his griffon Windshear's a northern featherwing that was notorious for carrying off travelers in Lornar's Pass. turned out she was just bore#she's very playful and mischievous and still grabs him on a regular basis. he absolutely hates this#his fulgurite ridgeback jackal Thunderclap was a rogue jackal that the djinn had him help recapture and tame#he's imbued with Ruju's air element magic and is known to make the air spark and smell of ozone when he's annoyed#then there's Blitz his lepidote brute skyscale! he likes bloodstone magic and kept nipping everyone until it was finally provided#the rest I don't have in-game yet but I DO have concepts for the skimmer/warclaw/raptor. the 1st 2 I know what skins I want too#the skimmer will be a frosty-dyed lithosol named Frostbite. it's an ice elemental that terrorized Frostgorge Sound#the warclaw is a spinetail nian with jungle colors since it's supposed to be a smokescale-type saurian critter#and the raptor is SUPPOSED to be the jungle raptor that plointt grew to huge size and promptly tried to eat him#BUT there isn't a skin that feels close enough yet so rip. Fang is a handful tho and keeps trying to chew on Inquest HDJDGDH#ANYWAY. that's all of mine. throws this into the wind

This is my personal crossover event of the century
#one of my favorite actors and one of my favorite drivers interacting??? what???#alright whos gonna be the brave soldier and write the matt damon × mark webber rpf fic-#(i read a fic w james bond/seb so imo it really wouldnt be too far off to write Linus Caldwell/Mark LMAO)#ive known abt this event practically since i got into f1 but i feel like my thoughts abt it keep developing every time i look at them again#first time: huh okay wow brad pitt & matt damon taking w mark thats really wild. f1 drivers really do be meeting w high level celebs#after i watched fight club: wow wow!! i cant believe theres pics of brad pitt with mark thats crazy!#after i watched oceans 11: omg wait oh yeah! when mark was in jaguar he was sponsored by oceans 12!!! thats sick!!!#and then recently w my increasing love for Matt Damon: WAIT OH MY GOD MARK HAS INTERACTED WITH MATT!!!! (two worlds colliding feel ig)#but i was watching some interview w matt where they referenced this happening so its relevant in my brain again so i had to post abt it#but of course in the vid the specific pic on screen was him and mark interacting and i died. like seriously i can never escape f1 and mark#mostly im freaking out bcs its truly the crossover event of all time concerning my interests specifically#but the lore behind this is genuinely really really interesting#the fact that theyre promoting a heist movie specifically and then they put a $300k diamond in the nose of the Jaguar#and then the Jaguar crashed during the race and the diamond disappeared?????? cmon literally itself could be the plot to an Oceans movie#RBR/teams sponsored by RB were so much fun back in the day!!#they had several back to back movie promotions which all were pretty fun! just a shame neither team was good back then#it was Oceans 12->SW:ROTS->Superman right? i can't remember if there was another#such a shame that neither mark nor seb were in RBR in 2005 when RBR was promoting ROTS#i think i actually wouldve exploded if there were pics of them w hayden or ewan(my prev fandom haha)#f1#formula 1#formula one#mark webber#matt damon

Hc that stim shots (which already sounds a hell of a lot like state sanctioned heroin to me tbh) are a spice derivative product, which is why the republic constantly just has buttloads of the stuff lying around whoever every they need to pay a ransom or bribe hondo or something
#This also feels so so accurate for the horrible garbage web of corruption and hypocrisy that is the clone wars era republic#Like of course spice is a criminalised drug and we hunt down those who deal and traffic in it!#We also quietly keep massive stockpiles of the stuff to pay off said traffickers when needed!#And to refine into a cute little stimulant that we helpfully provide to the dehumanised soldiers of our army#So they can keep fighting for liberty and justice even as their bodies fall apart!#We’re the good guys!#sw tcw#star wars#the clone wars#the republic

Actually no let's set the da2 crew aside for a second. I want to take Solas and Dorian to Soldier's Peak to talk to Avernus the 220-some year old Grey Warden Blood Mage. I want to see HOW BITCHY Solas can get. I want to hear Dorian's commentary on how exactly fucking stereotypical it is that the blood mage with unnatural long life is Tevene. I want the Warden Commander to look the Inquisitor's team full in the face and tell them to lose their biases *immediately* because the *only* goal of the Wardens is to end the Blights by whatever means necessary, and then walk into Avernus's lab and start bleeding into bottles for him. I want Solas to lose his fucking composure in that fucked up laboratory. I want it so badly. So So badly.
#the solas thing is because he hates grey wardens AND blood mages AND binding spirits. ALL of which apply to Avernus#he would be so disgusted#insulted even#appalled that the Commander just fucking. LET HIM CONTINUE AS NORMAL....#dorian would also dislike the lab but like. pspspspspsps cmere necromancer i have research. pspspspsps#cassandra would hate him. iron bull would hate him. sera would hate him. vivienne would be disgusted but recognize the practical side of it#cole would HAAATE him. varric would not be pleased either. blackwall MIGHT... keep his mouth shut.. bc of the warden thing. but he might not#he might blow up on the commander for letting avernus use their comrades for research#[commander amell looking up from the bottle they're filling with blood: don't you fucking judge me]#[amell: i was fighting the Blight with TWO grey wardens ONLY. you're damn fucking right I used Avernus' research. get over yourself.]#[amell: no one but my team and now yours has any clue about this place anyways and I intend to keep it that way. So yes. He continues.]#[amell: the only people I send to Avernus anyways are volunteers. most of the time he gets blood samples alone. so shut. up.]#dragon age#soldiers peak#dragon age inquisition

dont usually post publicly about my musings of my ocs but damn
after the shit that happens in tfs i feel like chasm, for the first time, wanted to step away from guardian field work for a while
like he has been doing this work nonstop but after the events of tfs i think he'd realize he super needs to stop and process everything
but he cant
cuz teehee seasonal stuff
he can never catch a break but hey his pal failsafe is around
well she's always been around but he had been so busy with other things so...
#.txt#destiny#destiny 2#destiny oc#destiny 2 oc#like idk#he just wanted to have some time to himself to think instead of the usual where hed just distract himself by continuing to work#and anyway he needed to keep working#there was always a new crisis to fight against and after the events of tfs he really needed time#to do what? alot of things mostly for his own mental health#idk this guy is the eternal servant and soldier i think he deserved a vacation#but he wont just say no when theres trouble going down in sol#again#as per usual#its always something going on around here yknow#anyway yeah

honestly, roche is so easy sometimes bc if you give him the smallest amount of praise and comfort he’s yours bc he’s just been that affection starved for a good while
#⚡ ⸺ ❝ moghome . [ ooc ]#⚡ ⸺ ❝ moogle's cooking show . [ hc ]#roche ‘i’d bleed for anything if it held me the right way’ beaufort#i like toying around with the ways roche obtains self value tbh#also the fact he does see himself as weapon#he calls cloud his friend but doesn’t? know how to display that friendship. it’s based entirely on fighting each other#i feel like his morals are in conflict with where he is right now#but i also don’t think he greets desertion as easily as he’d like either#he’s very. ‘what else is there for me; should i survive?’#which is why he just keeps doing what he does but… paradoxically being in shinra also gives him meaning and identity#bc he never even got to explore his initially aspired avenues. he became SOLDIER at 13-14 and that was that#now he’s 25 and he’s like. ‘would i be able to live normally? what if i don’t want normal? what if this is who i am now?’#i’d love to write roche as a madman who gives no fucks but i sincerely find that boring#i want to give him inner conflict and that friction between his morals vs his identity
