I know I've mentioned Bolo being cake in Portuguese (and the mispronounced Bola being Ball) but Idk if people know Porco, from Patia's surname, means Pig in Portuguese (and other romantic languages that use it as an alternative word for it) and I wish Marisha had talked more about it, if it was intentional or not.

Hi! Can I ask you a question about France? How common or uncommon or weird is the use of coucou as a greeting? Especially between adults. Would it be super weird if I went to France and greeted someone like that?
I don't trust the click-baity articles that show up when I google this (I'm not even sure all of them were written by humans), so I'd rather ask someone that, you know, actually lives over there.
Thanks, have a nice day
Hi! Coucou is a pretty common greeting including between adults (though it's more often used by women as it does sound a bit cutesy), but I think it implies pre-established friendly relations, unlike the neutral Bonjour or Salut. I only use it with family and friends. Friendly acquaintances too—okay now that I think about it, it's hard to say where I draw the coucou line. I use it as a greeting when I enter the library if there's no one in there but the librarian because I know her well, but if there are other people in the room I say bonjour even if they're children. And of course if I knew the librarian very well but didn't like her she wouldn't get a coucou. You kind of have to follow your heart with this greeting.
But definitely don't use it to greet people in a shop or formal context or anyone you don't know well because that would be weird (in my view!) Coucou sounds affectionate, I often use it in writing to set the tone ("Hi I am an informal unthreatening email !") (also if a French person sends you a text that starts with Cc, that's textspeak for coucou)
To me "Salut !" is "Hi!" while "Coucou" is Hi :) <3

♪ miles's [ ds nightmare's ] & vick's [ ds cross's ] themes - the Few

these two are the smallest batch, mainly because I never really latched onto either of their themes, or felt like they were as suited to them as the others. I feel like there might have been some other attempts at variations, but I can't find them anywhere.

Why does pretty much every game except the one that takes place in Cyrodiil lean into Ancient Roman aesthetics for Cyrodiil and the Empire? Why are the only Roman aesthetics in Oblivion shit built by the Ayleids? Why is the one game where I could've been in fantasy Rome generic fantasy Europe??? Where is my fantasy Rome DAMMIT!!!!!

So I was drawing Red being a little kid along side Rubert and I thought "Hey what if i made a silly au were they are little kids and siblings?" And then I remember how I fell down a rabbit hole for dad Mango content so–
Tumblr media
Mango becomes Papa luchon! >:]
(And Gold is alive too and Purple is Mango adopted child)
Tumblr media
idk how Red found Rubert cause Minecraft doesn't really exits but he's here! Let's say they live in stickcity with a few changes
Tumblr media
I'm gonna keep some of my hc's of the sticks in the au but they're siblings here so NO shipping, also they're like 8 so– no
Tumblr media Tumblr media
In conclusion, just a silly au with family fluff like, there's no big angsty lore behind it ;)
Tumblr media
And you know, if you had a little question then you can– you can ask -twirl hair-

new life plan for the forthcoming administration:
become an expert in sortes Sapphōnis rhapsodomancy from the Carson translation. At this point, making decisions based on random fragments of Sappho makes as much sense as anything else in this world.

First time in months that I just doodle fanart for the fun of it and it’s because I’m obsessed??? with A Ballad of Scarlet and Wine and in the new chapter the wonderful author did some awesome art for Gato and Lobo’s designs and I fell in love!!!!!!! If it’s your thing you have to read it! 
So... I had to doodle them!
Also I’ve been playing Bloodborne daily and my hunter has the Cainhurst Knights attire and... I love side capes. In all cultures, I love side capes. Love them.

"Well, well, look at you," you laughed, "I can't say I've had the pleasure of being caught before, charmed Batman. I'm a bit disappointed to see you're not a demon; I thought we might hit it off."
The Batman doesn't speak at first, then holds you up against the wall, “The Upper East End. Tuesday night.���
“Hmm, doesn’t ring a bell,” you shrug and he presses his arm harder against your throat, “Now, now, batboy, I need my vocal cords for later, I’ve got a couple men’s names to scream in the bedroom.” He throws you to the ground, you roll a few meters and laugh, “Oh, I love a man who plays rough.”
You prop yourself up on your elbow, grabbing his leg before he can press it on your chest, twisting your body just enough to unbalance him. The Batman stumbles, almost tripping over you as you pull him over yourself. As he’s busy trying to stabilize himself, you get up, shaking your shoulders, “Dimittis,” you mutter and the cuffs fall to the ground, and you blow him a kiss before running off. Batman squints his eyes and pursues, much to your delight.
