#kell mares

[lilyharvord]

I need people to understand that my hyperfixation ships are limited to one thing: a man who is usually in full control of himself meeting 1 woman and losing complete and utter control over absolutely everything he does.

I just like to watch when they go full feral for a woman who could literally chew them up and spit them out, but choses to let them stick around because I don't know, it's nice to have someone carrying their bag or whatever.

[thaidakar-is-hot]

Pirate Kelsier AU brewing in my brain. I already have a project, but I desperately want him as a pirate.

Dashing scoundrel raids yet another East India ship! 

[cikebabbler]

I wish Sazed wrote about Kelsier and Mare meeting Vin and Elend after everything. I need to know that Mare embraced Vin like she's the daughter she never had. I need to know that Kell smiled at El and told him he did well. I need to know that Kell hugged Vin and let her know that he's so proud of her.

Nato dalla nebbia

Prima di cominciare: questo breve racconto è SPOILER di “Mistborn, l’ultimo impero”, se non l’avete letto e non volete rovinarvi l’esperienza non continuate.

"Ma non puoi uccidermi, lord Tiranno. Io rappresento quello che tu non sei mai riuscito a uccidere, per quanto tu ci abbia provato. Io sono la speranza."

La cosa successiva di cui Kelsier fu consapevole fu l'impatto degli anelli di metallo che impreziosivano la mano del lord Reggente sulla sua guancia. Il sorriso non fece in tempo a spegnersi dal suo volto, mentre la testa si voltava dall'altra parte per la potenza dello schiaffo: il sangue schizzò intorno a lui e pezzi di carne si sollevarono. Non sentì dolore, non lo sentì nemmeno quando la lancia gli trapassò il petto, tirandogli fuori quel poco di energie che gli erano rimaste.

I suoi ultimi pensieri non furono per Mare, come aveva sempre creduto, e nemmeno per Dox o per la banda. Il suo ultimo pensiero fu per Vin. Il suo unico rimpianto era di non poter più stare al suo fianco, di non vederla crescere e diventare la donna meravigliosa che sapeva sarebbe diventata. Le augurava ogni bene e di essere felice con quel Venture che si era scelta come compagno. Sperava che per una volta lui avesse torto e gli altri avessero ragione. Era stanco, doveva chiudere gli occhi solo per qualche momento. Solo... per qualche... momen...

"Kell... è finita."

Quella voce... poteva darsi che se l'era immaginata? Guardandosi intorno, Kelsier notò che improvvisamente era calata la nebbia intorno a lui. I suoni della rivolta in piazza erano ovattati, lontani.

"Chi è?"

"Non mi riconosci?"

In un angolo della sua mente, Kelsier sapeva a chi apparteneva quel sussurro, ma gli sfuggiva. Davanti a lui iniziarono a definirsi i contorni di una sagoma che emergeva dalle nebbie.

Kelsier si tirò a sedere, ma gli girava la testa. "Stai pure seduto, figlio mio" gli disse la figura. Dietro di lui, un'altra sagoma con folti capelli e vestiti poveri lo adocchiava con curiosità. Aveva fattezze femminili, quindi era stata lei a parlare, la prima volta.

"Figlio mio, ben arrivato. Io e tua moglie ti stavamo aspettando. Vieni con noi, conosci gli altri tuoi fratelli."

"Chi sei tu?" Perché hai parlato di mia moglie?, avrebbe voluto chiedergli, ma gli parve saggio aspettare. Una domanda alla volta avrebbe risolto tutto.

"Non mi riconosci? Hai sfruttato il mio potere per gli ultimi due anni."

"Non credo di seguirti..."

"Io sono Preservazione" la figura gli tese una mano, e fu quando Kelsier si allungò per afferrarla che urlò di paura. Era fatto anche lui di nebbia. Doveva essere un brutto sogno dovuto alla perdita di sangue. Sì, doveva essere il delirio di un moribondo. "Non aver paura, figlio mio. Lascia che io e Mare ti spieghiamo: andrà tutto bene, vedrai."

"No. Mare è morta. Tanto tempo fa..."

La figura dietro Preservazione ridacchiò. "E tu allora? Sciocco, non ti ricordi nemmeno com'è fatta tua moglie?"

Ecco dove l'aveva già sentita quella voce. Prendendosi qualche momento in più per studiare quell'ammasso di nebbia dalle sembianze umane, riconobbe le fattezze di Mare. La sua Mare. Aveva passato così tanto tempo a pensare alle parole che avrebbe usato per scusarsi, se solo avesse potuto, che adesso gli sembravano tutte di troppo.

"Io... io..." si trovò a balbettare tra i singhiozzi, cercando di tirarsi in piedi.

"Non c'è bisogno che tu dica niente. So che lo sai. Sono sempre stata al tuo fianco. E ho imparato a conoscere quella ragazza che ti sei scelto come pupilla, Vin. Ti somiglia molto."

"Avrei giurato che somigliasse più a te" finalmente trovò la sua solita parlantina. "Ha la tua forza."

"E la tua intelligenza. Farà grandi cose, là fuori."

"Mi mancheranno tutti così tanto" singhiozzò Kelsier, faticando ad ammetterlo ad alta voce.

"E tu mancherai a loro: eri la loro fiaccola, la loro bussola morale" intervenne Preservazione. "Guarda" agitò una mano e si ritrovarono nel covo della banda. Stavano leggendo una lettera. Alcuni piangevano, altri cercavano di trattenere le lacrime. Sazed stava cercando di consolare Spook e Vin con uno dei suoi soliti discorsi motivazionali sulla fede. A Kelsier strinse il cuore vedendo le condizioni in cui la squadra si era ridotta per colpa sua.

"Mi vuoi spiegare chi sei?" balbettò per evitare di mettersi di nuovo a piangere.

"Una cosa alla volta. Per adesso ti basti sapere che fornisco io il potere a voialtri. Misting e Mistborn. E che a tutti loro servirà il mio aiuto se vogliono sconfiggere il lord Reggente e quello che verrà dopo. Volete venire con me per scoprire come andrà a finire?"

A Kelsier dava immensamente fastidio essere lasciato all'oscurodi tutto, ma supponeva di esserselo meritato.

Lui e Mare si guardarono, lei gli strinse la mano. Annnuirono, all'unisono. E seguirono Vin e Saze, che stavano uscendo dal covo proprio in quel momento.

"La Setta degli Elementi"

...riprendiamo con i simboli celtici

I due cigni

Questo simbolo è stato ritrovato dipinto nel Book of Kells.

La rappresentazione dei due cigni rappresenta l'unità tra due persone come un vincolo infinito (cerchio) che trascende da tutto in quanto i cigni sono animali che si accoppiano a vita.

Due che diventano una sola mente, un unico pensiero.

Il Sorgere del Sole

In questo simbolo di protezione il semicerchio rappresenta il sole.

Inoltre se il cerchio rappresenta completezza il semicerchio rappresenta la rinascita e il risveglio spirituale.

Era utilizzato dai Druidi per focalizzare il potere degli elementi.

Awen

Questo simbolo prende il nome da una parola gallese che significa “ispirazione”, anche se letteralmente vuol dire soffio, una benevola brezza capace di parlare al cuore del poeta facendo riferimento al Calderone dell'Awen che avrebbe donato sapienza e ispirazione poetica a chiunque vi avesse bevuto.

Il simbolo è diventato di uso comune nel neo druidismo, i cui membri sostengono che le tre linee contenute nel cerchio rappresentino il cielo, la terra e il mare e dunque il corpo, la mente e lo spirito così come la saggezza, l’amore e la verità.

Il simbolo consiste in tre raggi, a volte interpretati come fiamme, e sta a rappresentare l’armonia dell’universo.

Si pensa che i raggi di destra e sinistra rappresentino il maschile e il femminile, mentre quello centrale l’equilibro tra di essi, in un certo senso può essere considerato la versione celtica dello yin e yang.

La Croce di Caithlin

La Croce di Caithlin può essere chiamata anche Croce Scozzese.

È una croce a lati uguali, i quattro trifogli raffigurati sono simboli di protezione dal male proveniente dalle quattro direzioni cardinali, mente il cerchio simboleggia la continuità o crescita spirituale, quindi ciascun quadrante evoca il potere della trinità.

I Tre Leoni Celtici

I Tre Leoni Celtici forniscono protezione dalle forze del male.

Questo simbolo include trascendenza, conoscenza della vita e la capacità di lasciare andare via le cose non buone e mettersi in superiorità a queste ultime. Aiuta anche a superare le pressioni della vita di ogni giorno.

La Croce di Afsling

La Croce di Afsling simboleggia un cambiamento.

In particolare nella tradizione celtica indica un guardiano che protegge dalle forze del male.

I'm the winner!

Obscure Webcomic Tournament Bracket

Alright with our winner crowned for the fancomics, time for the main event! The bracket is separated here in to 16 subbrackets (A-P), because the full bracket is massive.

You can find the complete list can be found here. This includes links and the descriptions, exactly as given in the submissions (except when there were multiple submissions, in which case they were combined.)

The bracket was seeded by date of first publication - so the oldest comics (we've got a few from the 90s) are going up against the newest (from just the past few months!), etc. (and if anyone else is insane enough to run a seeded 512 bracket the sheet is automated and you're free to copy it).

There will be 8 polls coming out daily, starting (hopefully) Monday, May 29th, and will be tagged #obscure webcomic poll and #webcomic round 1 and like the previous the rules will be Vote for the One You Don't Know.

Watching the BBC Jane Austen adaptations and I’m just imagining a Mistborn P&P <3

Elizabeth a secret Mistborn, Darcy something cool, like a Tin-eye or thug. Lydia no Allomancy at all, but Wickam? He’s a rioter! :OOOOOOOOOO “That Zinc tongued raven STOLE OUR GIRL!” Elizabeth of course, goes and kicks ass. I mean, she’s a Mistborn, and this isn’t REALLY Regency England.

[painted-fanbird]

I guess I’m live-blogging my Mistborn experience lol. So here are my current thoughts, a bit over halfway through:

Ham is suspicious. I’m calling it now, he is UP to something. Those comments about the skaa and the Lord Ruler and wondering if the nobility has been right the entire time actually, absolutely gives me “upcoming betrayal” vibes. My running crackpot theory is that it was actually Ham who sold Kelsier and Mare out to the Lord Ruler. Because it definitely wasn’t Mare herself, the book is spending too much time insisting it could only have been her imo XD

I was going to say something about Vin’s optimism with the nobility, but that just got tempered a bit by her discussion with Dockson. So neat lol. I do still think that optimism is going to be relevant though, she’s the only one who wants to give the nobility a chance, and the only one who thinks some of them can be salvaged. Which is in direct contrast to everyone insisting they’re evil. I’m betting Vin is going to get the crew contacts in the nobility, and that’s what’s going to let the rebellion succeed.

She is probably going to it through Elend and that’s,,, hnnng. As a certified Romance Hater(tm) I do not love the romance they’ve got going on. But I do really like their dynamic and what it means for the story. I just think we could’ve made them friends instead XD

I’m also excited to see Vin back to using her Allomancy to spy on Elend and his friends in the last chapter I read. I was getting antsy for her to go do thiefy stuff again lol

And Vin and Kelsier’s entire dynamic? I am rotating them around in my mind and drawing hearts and sparkles all around them. That’s a father/daughter dynamic if I’ve ever seen one, and Kell absolutely sees Vin as a daughter. He literally said he wished he had one with Mare, that carried her “dark hair and stubbornness”. Vin’s his kid and that entire sequence in Kendrik Shaw got me alright?? Love them <3

Unwaking Dreams

Notes:

I had to make Lila suffer again. I am so sorry lol. Special thanks to @forthegenuine for betaing this :D

Work Text:

The first thing Lila felt was the heat. Death wasn’t as cold as people claimed, not at first. No, the steal burned hot as the Copper Thief thrust a blade through her chest. “This is for Kasnov,” he snarled. And then the warmth of it all spread, and then she was falling. Down...down… The sky she looked into was black. Death must really be everywhere, for now she could feel the heat of it seeping from cuts on her hands. “Let me in, let me in, let me in,” chanted the darkness. She realized then that it wasn’t the sky at all, but Osaron, dragging her off the edge of the Sanctuary Garden. She scrambled, trying to find purchase, but she couldn’t breathe from the wound in her chest. No, wait. That wasn’t correct. She hadn’t been stabbed during this brush with death, she knew this. But she still coughed, and still tasted the blood in her mouth, and still felt it running down her arms and her chest. And then she was falling again.

And then Astrid Dane stood before her, pale as ever. And Lila watched in horror as Astrid’s face became her own, and her knife was plucked out of her hand. “Now,” said the evil queen, “I think I will go help Kell.”

Her scream was lost in her throat, as darkness swallowed her again, and then she felt the world tip under her as she was falling again.

~*~

Lila shot up in bed, sweat slicking her face and sides, as she tried to register where she was. She took several deep breaths before registering that she was on a ship. In her delirious, post-nightmare haze, she thought for a brief moment that she might be on the Sea King. But then her vision cleared, and she registered the body next to her.

No. She was on the Night Spire. And Kell was lying next to her. She was surprised he was still asleep, her dreams--no, nightmares--had been so loud to her that she was sure everyone else aboard could hear them too.

She pulled her legs up to her chest and buried her face in her knees. Her uneven breathing gave way to shaky sobs. And then she felt Kell stirring next to her.

“Lila?” He asked, voice full of concern. She sniffed, and he sat up, pulling her against him. “What is it?” He whispered, as she sobbed silently against his chest.

“I had a bad dream,” she choked out after a few moments. She felt his arms tighten around her, and he rubbed his hands up and down her back soothingly.

“You wanna tell me about it?” He asked after she had calmed down some. She shook her head and sniffed again. “Okay. How can I help?”

She pulled away and rubbed at her eyes with the heels of her hands. “I don’t know. Sometimes I get quick snippets of what could have happened during our battle with Osaron, but nothing like what I just dreamed.” Kell leaned forward and pressed his lips against her forehead. “Usually when I wake up and see you next to me I can calm down and go back to sleep, and then forget about it the next day.”

She pushed him back down and buried her face in his chest. She felt his lips against the top of her head as he shifted so that she was laying on top of him. He pulled the blanket up over her and continued to rub her back. He didn’t press her to tell him what she’d seen either. He was just there with her, holding onto her as she tried to clear her mind and slow her heart. As she told herself over and over that what she’d dreamed hadn’t happened.

But it had actually happened. That was the problem. Even though her dream had shifted and blended together, and some details weren’t quite right, everything she’d just relived in that nightmare had happened.

She felt fresh tears fill her eyes and spill over, and then Kell’s arms tighten around her again as he felt them hit his chest.

“Hey,” he whispered. “Talk to me, love.”

She took a shaky breath and then looked up into his face. His blue eye was dark with concern. She slowly began to tell him.

“It started with the fight in Rosenal, when I was stabbed,” she whispered. “And then it kept shifting. Then I was in the garden of the Sanctuary, the night I had to get supplies for Tieren. There had been three afflicted people there, and after I finished dealing with them, Osaron grabbed hold of my leg and tried to pull me into the Isle.” She paused to take another shuddering breath and then went on. “And then it shifted again, until I was back in White London and Astrid had pinned me back and stolen my face so she could go kill you and take the black stone.” Lila brought her hand up to his chest and tried to distract herself by tracing where his scar was even underneath his shirt.

Instead he caught her hand and gently pressed a kiss to her knuckles. She looked up at him then, and moved up until she lightly pressed her lips against his.

He caught her face in his hands and leaned his forehead against hers. “Lila,” he whispered against her lips. There was so much love and concern in his tone that she angled her head until they were kissing.

One of his hands brushed over her hair as the other continued to cup her face. He didn’t deepen the kiss, only let her feel how much he loved her, how strong he knew she was. “Do you want to try to sleep again?” He whispered against her lips.

She shook her head. “Can we just...stay like this? For the rest of the night?” He nodded, and she laid her head against his chest. He ran his fingers through her hair and rubbed her back gently until he felt her drift off to sleep again. He wasn’t sure if it took minutes or hours, but he continued to hold her for the rest of the night and watched until just before dawn to make sure she slept through the remainder of the night.

[protectoroffaeries]

ok but that part where marsh tells kelsier that he wished kelsier had died instead of mare & kelsier just casually agrees with him

[sronti]

Nincs általános szabály erre, attól függ kik vagytok. Én Londonban nagyon szeretem a multikultit, szóval Ridley Road Market (Afrikai-karibi piac), Dalstonban van. Előtte a Top Boy, vagy a Ridley Road sorozatot érdemes megnézni, hogy a helytörténet meglegyen. Utána West African/karibi kaja, jerk chicken a mainstream, de a curry goat még jobb.

Angol reggeliből a legjobbat talán itt ettem Londonban

Whitechapel/Bethnal Green, összekötve a Brick Lane markettel és kajálni pedig ott az E Pelicci nevű százhúsz éves olasz kajálda/kávézóban kell. Ez mehet együtt a Towerrel, mert nincs messze. Bangladesi környék, bangladesi kajákkal. Gengsztertörténetileg itt vannak a Kray fívérekhez kapcsolódó kocsmák is, meg persze Hasfelmetsző Jack.

Ha több időt akartok arra tölteni:

Ez egy elég fura hely, nem kisgyerekbarát.

Barbican Estate, ha tudjátok úgy intézni, hogy a dzsungelbe bementek, az télen külön jó

A Kew Garden szintén nagyon szép, a Hyde parknál van japán kert is.

A Magnificent Seven temetői közül legalább egyet érdemes megnézni, a Highgate cemetery a legnépszerűbb, de amihez épp közel vagytok szintén jó lesz és egy kisebb is tetszeni fog. Ha egy kis gothic érzés is van valakiben, az szerelmes lesz belé.

Ha jó az idő és van kedvetek, szívesen elviszlek titeket egy belvárosi bringatúrára, de ha nincs ehhez kedvetek, csak az Enbankmenten végigbringázni a Temzeparton, sőt, a Hyde parktól a Blackfriars-ig, időnként fotózva, az elég jó és szinte csak leválasztott bringaúton is lehet menni.

Gyerekekkel Science Museum/Natural History alap.

A tömegközlekedés szenvedős tud lenni, bringával minden közel van a belvárosban, viszont minden busz városnéző, mert lassú, és az emeletről mindent alaposan meg lehet nézni, nem érdemes külön hop on hop off-ra költeni.

Az Über hajó elég jó, Greenwichtől végigmennék rajta, ameddig lehet nyugatra.

Greenwhich Observatory-tól nagyon jó a kilátás.

Camdent és a Regents Canalt úgyse tudjátok kihagyni, de nem is érdemes.

A Tate környékén elég jókat lehet sétálni.

Ha bárhol bármivel megakadtok, szóljatok és megpróbálok segíteni. Ha megírod üzenetben, merre van a szállás, megmondom mi lehet ott a jó kaja a közelben.

Bűnözés szempontból minden környék biztonságos, tolvajok viszont vannak. Hallottam olyanról, hogy kikapják a telefont turisták kezéből robogós/ebicajos emberek, amikor fényképeznek, de nincs olyan környék, amivel különösebben vigyázni kéne.

A parkok a legjobbak Londonban, a saját nem sorrend listám a legjobbakról:

Hyde

St. James

Victoria (pagoda, csatornapark)

Regents (állatkerttel)

Hackney Marshes ha közel laktok

Richmond (őzek!)

Crystal Palace (kő dínók)

Greenwich (kilátás)

Hampstead Heath (kilátás, bougie)

Tanácsot szeretnék kérni londoni turistáskodáshoz a magyar Tumblr véghetetlen bölcsességére hagyatkozva.

Ha azt mondom, hogy régi, de eddig nem teljesült vágyam eljutni Londonba, akkor az elég erős understatement: a magyaron kívül kizárólag az angolt beszélem értékelhető szinten, a brit fociban, jogban (lévén ugye jogász), politikában, irodalomban, történelemben, popkultúrában, meg persze főképpen populáris zenében évtizedek óta indokolatlan mélységekig vagyok naprakész. Ehhez képest 47 évesen most megyek majd először nemcsak Angliába, de angol nyelvterületre is. A lényeg, hogy nem ott van a baj, hogy ötletem nincs, hogy mit nézzek meg, hanem hogy a túl sok információ miatt nem nagyon tudom, hogy mi az, amit ne hagyjak ki.

Szóval ebből az alaphelyzetből kérdezném, hogy ti mit néznének mindenképpen meg a helyemben, ami belefér egy ötnapos családi városlátogatós turistaútba? Minél szubjektívabb választ adtok, annál jobb, de minden meglátásnak, praktikus tanácsnak örülök.
