I never realized it before until recently but it’s so crazy how much and how often ponyboy babies johnny in the book….. always talking about him being the pet of the group (which is true but he really does talk about him like he was a dog or a cat like chill out girl 😭), how much hero worship he has for everyone around him, his stature and soft spoken-ness, pony really seems to preserve him by making him seem like 10 years old even though he describes many situations in which johnny is taking care of him especially in windrixville like staying awake for him on the train letting him sleep on him, his own jacket as a blanket when he goes to buy them food, etc lol I hope you get what I mean I don’t have the book with me rn so I can’t really give off exact examples off the top of my head but—

also maybe that’s why people are often soooo turned off by the concept of J and D being a ship because of how PB describes him, I’ve seen people think that J was the same age or younger than him and so they think of a big brother/little brother dynamic for jally when they actually seem more on equal ground than pony and dally (who in a kind of mentor/mentee relationship) and even pony and johnny (who I’d say are in more of a brother relationship… controversial opinion I know but I’m sticking with it!) in fact I’d say they’re the Most on equal ground in the whole story even more than soda and darry…. but I’ll let you guys figure that out on your own… even though JD only have a 1.5 age difference

okayyyyy so I definitely didn’t mean to make this about the ship dynamics of the book but I guess I can’t not be gay for five fucking minutes 😭😭😭 but it’s relevant to the point !!! idk I just felt like rambling to someone about it because pony really does talk about him like he’s so little and I think that really muddles the perception of johnny even though he’s trying to honor his memory because of the delicate ways he’s trying to protect him after he died :(

johnny cade they will never make me hate you </3

Oh yeah, I definitely think a lot of it is Pony’s recognition of himself as the youngest, as a “baby” and sort of projecting it off onto someone else. However, we know the gang doesn’t just see pony as “the kid brother” so it’s sort of his own issue to work out- as well as I think a bit of a lack of understanding? Or lack of a way to properly explain the way the gang treats Johnny, they take it a little easy on him as he’d been shaken pretty bad (they wouldn’t known/use ‘traumatized’ but they would know he changed a little) but they never really talk down to him.

No but yes I agree! Pony sort of washes over a lot of senecios where Johnny is clearly the older/more mature of the two of them. He’s the second youngest but he’s still 16. He’s still protecting and helping Pony like the rest of the guys and the whole “my fault for dragging a 13 year old kid along” detail…

No you’re right honestly. It’s weird to me as Johnny’s described as soft and close to Ponyboy but he never came across as 14 or that young to me in the book or movie— like there was always that knowledge to him that revealed his age. And I agree… he and Dally are on equal footing and trust. They have something going on whatever way you interpret it…. Personally I find “little brother” INSANE. As where people baby Johnny they over age Dallas… he’s 17 it’s a years age difference. If a friend barely older than me tried to pull that I’d throat punch them 😭 it’s ? They’re trying to make it cute but it feels a little demeaning? Putting the “little” in there. Dal doesn’t talk down to Johnny… honestly he talks up to him, gets mad expecting him to know better etc — trusts him with the gun, money etc everything and taking responsibility.

But no that’s also so sweet that in a way, even if Pony is being a bit off in how Johnny was treated that he’s trying to sort of protect him within his story. Honor him in a strange way. Ough. He was his best friend, you’d want to sweeten that image. Absolve.

#the outsiders #outsiders #thanks for the ask! send more 🧍‍♂️#asks #outsiders book #ponyboy curtis #johnny cade #dallas winston #tried to keep neutral as even if I do ship it— irregardless of how you view them they do have some equality/respect

slowly offers you my pjo ocs.... accept? all the info you could ever want (/j) about them below cut

in order of the images, l to r, up and down: 1) THE ONE, THE ONLY... JADE SINCLAIR!!! "she, daughter of witchcraft, will reap" ive got a lot to say about her.... 1. shes like the percy of my ocs, the new plaything of the gods after percy becomes an adult. she/they, 14 (12 at the time of her main quest), daughter of hecate, bi. REALLY good at magic and controlling the mist. i mean... shes a hecate kid, shes great at magic and can do almost anything

the little gem on her athame (the weapon) was given to her by her dad, which was given to him by hecate. it kind of forms paths for her while shes fighting, resembling the whole crossroads hecate thing... shes able to call upon hellhounds by whistling!!! her strongest magic is related to night/the moon, so dark magic, you could say. her fatal flaw is kindness, which might be surprising based on her looks and abilites. shes too trsuting, kind, and isnt a big fan of killing. also, alexeis gf!!! btw all of her super cool magic stuff (the paths, whistling, etc) has cooldowns

part of the quest trio also i wrote something for the first prophecy but technically its not a poem so??? does it count?? idk: When night falls, the child of magic must seek out a key. With a child of tricks and a child of sleep, She, daughter of witchcraft, will reap. Lunionem* in hand, a stone to guide, Follow the moonlight through the night, Down to Hades, and with friends to help set her right, She'll find the key and seal the fight. * her athame, which is a knife used in rituals!! 2) "a child of tricks" NATHAN "NATE" TRICKER!!! hermes kid, obvi... he/him, 15 (13 at time of main quest), bi. really good at manipulation, pranking, and tricking people (who wouldve thought?) gets compared to luke a LOT, as hes kind of a big brother to all the campers who are younger than him (he is basically a better luke tbh) he hates the comparison though (he didnt even know the guy!!!). nate's fatal flaw is feelings of inferiority. his sword is meant to represent hermes' caduceus and i probably spelt that wrong but whateva. part of the quest trio. 3) kiki, the latest one i made. she has no last name for now lol. dionysus kid, can instill madness into people. she/they/xe, 17, pan. not much to say about them tbh. fatal flaw is not taking things seriously lol 4) MY SON ALEXEI ARKWRIGHT!! hephaestus kid, got burnt lol SKILL ISSUE!! a nerd... he/him. hes 14, demiboy, ace, and omni. good at forgery, a bit skilled at sewing though thats probably not a hephaestus thing. jades bf (his failboy swagger captivated her). autistic and has ocd. everyone has adhd and dyslexia tho obvi. fatal flaw is hesitation. 5) "a child of sleep" PHOEBE DREMA!! hypnos kid, 13 (11 at time of mian quest), aroace, sapphic, she/her. can control dreams, hypnotize ppl, and can cause people to become eepy. narcoleptic, falls asleep super easily and isnt the best at fighting. HOWEVER, her fatal flaw is ambition/recklessness, as she loves a good challenge/fight. ALSO FUNFACT: her arrows are dipped in water from the river lethe, so when someone gets hit with them, they are both injured AND they forget where they are for about 10 seconds. part of quest trio

#percy jackson #percy jackson and the olympians #percy jackon and the olympians #pjo #riordanverse #pjo hoo toa #pjo oc #pjo ocs #pjo oc art #percy jackson oc #ocs #my ocs #bleh #art #ophii #ophii draws things

why it ourple

ok.

i'm going to tell you the story of how purple became my favourite colour. and then, where the name vylet pony came from.

———————————————————

ch.1 the mace windu incident

once upon a time. I really liked star wars. i kind of still like star wars i guess. but when i was a kid, i REALLY liked star wars.

in my room, i had a mace windu poster.

i still can't find the exact poster. it looked something like this

mace windu was my fav star wars character for an inconceivably long time. with that, i also became fascinated with his purple lightsaber. nobody else had a purple lightsaber. i loved it. staring at that poster constantly made me really like the colour purple. ever since the poster started exerting its technicolour pressures and whimsies upon me, i became fixated on the colour purple. forever.

"hai!~ im mace windu and i loveee Videos!" - mace windu, star wars episode iii: revenge of the sith

———————————————————

ch. 2 the viny scratch era

fast forward like 7 years. i am in the my little pony fandom now. i am 13 years old. i really like vinyl scratch. she is pictured here:

my first online presence in the mlp community was as a vinyl scratch / dj pon3 roleplay account. for a good year, people called me vinyl and "vy".

however when it came time to start releasing music in the fandom, i couldn't go by vinyl scratch at the time. this name was already being used by the artist who currently goes by Scraton!

this is still one of my favourite songs by them:

youtube

anyway. i actually held a really insane, irrational grudge against scraton for being named "vinyl scratch" as a music artist before me. i got past that after a while, because i had to stop being 13 first. i stopped being 13 and eventually fell in love with their music and we became friends later after!

but it's 2013 and i can't be vinyl scratch anymore. people already called me "vy" because of being a vinyl scratch persona.

so.

———————————————————

ch. 3 it's vylet time-wait is that can opener? CANNI?

it started on december 28, 2012. i posted to my then-instagram account this image:

you may recognize this as my oc canni. here's their reworked look in the 2022 album (10 years later) can opener's notebook: fish whisperer (illustrated by @astroeden):

can opener's original name was "ultra vylet". their colour scheme was originally intended to be the inverse of vinyl scratch's, as a sort of strange protest to not being able to be vinyl scratch. i was like ok. well if i cant be vinyl scratch, i am going to make a character that swaps the main colours. within a few months of "ultra vylet" existing, i discarded the design in favour of a completely different one:

this would be the only time vylet consistently had purple in her design until 2018 or so.. lol.

then. on april 15, 2013, i posted this to my instagram:

i had essentially combined three things:

The fact the people called me "vy'

The fact that my favourite colour is purple (violet)

The fact that I wanted to be vinyl scratch (dj pon3) before

———————————————————

ch. 4 vylet pony ≠ vinyl scratch

that is to say, i never really put a lot of thought into "vylet pony" as a name. i just made it when i was 14 and now i am going to be 25 soon. will i keep vylet pony as a name forever? not sure. do i take great pride in its insanely snarky origin? absolutely.

after i had decided firmly on "vylet pony" as a name — after dropping the "3" from it — i made a new instagram account. the very first thing i posted to it was this:

illustrated by my friend, shade.

now that looks slightly vylet-like, design-wise, oc-wise. oh. but now she is grey and black? ok.

she stopped being purple from 2013-2018.

here is how her design progressed through the years:

the first one is by my then-partner sara. this is when vylet's cutiemark was still an upside down music note, reflected from "ultra vylet" / can opener's original design. i'll show how it became a puzzle piece next.

the second one is by shade

the third one is by chibadeer

the fourth one is by astroeden

———————————————————

ch. 5 the puzzle piece

to this day, i still cannot find the fanart in question. but over instagram, someone asked to draw fanart of my pony. in doing so, they misconstrued the shape of the upside down music note as a puzzle piece, like this:

i've been looking forever for the original fanart/fanartist that made this mistake. because ever since that art, i just stuck with it anyway. i like puzzles and puzzle games. i'm also a puzzling and enigmatic person. and the puzzle piece can go into so many different things. all sorts of problem solving is like a puzzle. music fits neatly into that category in my opinion. so because of its intrigue and ability to mean so many different things, i just went with it. i never looked back.

———————————————————

ch. 6 that is the history of the colour purple and vylet pony character design

i hope this answers the question "why it ourple"!

Paul McCartney Discography Album Cover Ranking

Because I Feel Like It!

25. What was the vision here. I'm genuinely baffled. That pink feels so out of place. Why am I thinking of that one Narnia book.

24. C'mon, man.

23. Denny literally looks like he's about to sneeze. Linda's slaying tho. Why is the contrast so high. You can't even tell they actually took these pics on location.

22. It should probably be lower than London Town but I'm too much of a sucker for red/blue contrasts. It emphasizes his asymmetry way too much.

21. It's kind of a neat picture but it doesn't match the album At All. (Linda I Love Youuuuuuu)

20. The squished artist name and feet upset me. Nice picture though.

19. Striking. I really love the font. The reflection feels like too much.

18. Inoffensive. The colours are lovely.

17. Not super ambitious but a well executed concept.

16. Very cute and cool composition!!!

15. Neat concept. I prefer the cooler tones of the deluxe edition.

14. Love the copper here and the delicate touches of purple.

13. Integrating the album title into the actual subject is always inspired. I wish the tracklist could be found on it too though!!

12. Again: big red/blue contrast fan here. I just find myself wishing the picture (which is good!) was better integrated into the background somehow. Really like the font and the tetris-like blocks though, it feels very in character with the production.

11. Beautiful composition. Just lovely, possibly the most underrated one.

10. Love the handwritten title, the little pie detail, the colour palette, the fact the picture is slightly blurred. this is like if the Driving Rain cover was thought-through.

9. Unapologetically quirky like the album itself. I go back and forth on the blue frame but the portrait itself is so goddamned inspired I have to give it a spot in the top ten.

8. Gorgeous picture. The birds in motion are amazing. I wish Paul's haircut was better but what can you do.

7. This is amazing to me. This cover TELLS a story (I know it's basically a screengrab from some TV special lol). In connection with the title it makes me think "the egg" is earth itself. The way the lighting creates a natural frame. It's just so cool and unique.

6. I cannot decide if the concept of Mike McCartney happening to see his brother through the kitchen curtains and snapping a picture of it or having a specific vision for this image and getting Paul to pose for him is more impressive. This is the stuff of legends. He was fucking 18 or something. Though a part of me wonders if it really works as an album cover. I'd need to look at a physical copy more closely.

5. Back at it again with the blue/red. It works so well with the album's mood as a whole and it's a lovely picture to boot.

4. I just love getting lost in all the details of this one. There's so much to look at without the whole thing feeling over-crowded or overwhelming. I can see the brushstrokes and I love that.

3. The funky af font matched with the super super simple motif. Nothing to add. Having the title vertical and horizontal was inspired.

2. Iconic. Christopher Lee is literally on it.

Sorrrrry but the way it combines black and white with colour and it's VISIBLY homedrawn marker and the yellow is so iconic. This shit goes crazy, I don't tire looking at it.

2. That one time Meatlug became magnetic and almost died

12. Ryker has had enough

3. THIS SHOW LOVES TO FORCE ROMANCES, DOESN'T IT?

4. Fishlegs can't believe that his ancestors were Dragon Hunters as if he wasn't once enrolled in Dragon Killing School

5. Nothing solves a sibling rivalry like teaming up to kill the annoying cousin

6. THIS EPISODE GOT AGE RESTRICTED ON NETFLIX BECAUSE ASTRID SHOOK HER TITS AT HICCUP AND DAGUR AND MALA HAVE A MUTUAL PAIN KINK

7. The twins are just. So ride or die for each other it's not even funny.

8. Viggo confesses his love for Hiccup and then fucking dies for real this time (Viggo fans start sobbing as The Winner Takes It All by ABBA starts playing in the distance)

9. Snotlout writes a book

10. What if the gang had never left Berk? What if Hiccup never shot down Toothless at the start of HTTYD 1? What if Spitelout actually loved his son?

11. Protecting an island filled with a bunch of dead dragons

12. The satisfied smirk on my face knowing what the characters don't

13. The most satisfying death in the history of mankind.

HTTYD 2:

Way to straight up ruin Hiccup's life, am I right?

HTTYD 3:

Ruining every character and spitting in the face of all that I love

Homecoming:

20 minutes of my life that I'll never get back

Snoggletog Log:

Half an hour of a fireplace and the wrong voice actors. This shit plays like a DVD menu.

2024 jp trip report (food edition)

i had originally planned to visit tokyo in 2020, but covid happened and...finally this year i managed to go on the trip! ;w; i rarely go overseas but it was really fun just walking around and stumbling upon things. i want to save up for the next japan trip already...

i'm making the post mostly to remember where i've been! i'm splitting up the food and the sights because of tumblr's image limit per post 🙄 will be posting the food here!

(sights edition here)

Day 1 (13/5/2024)

we arrived at night so pretty much everything was closed, but before i went to bed i had some cold haikara udon...i love cold udon so much and wish there was a way to get it cheap back home 😭 i also added some chilli oil with garlic, but it wasn't spicy..only the first day in and i miss singapore's spicy food 😂

Nakau なか卯 (chain store, multiple outlets)

Day 2 (14/5/2024)

we spent day 2 at ikebukuro and nakano...mostly browsing weeb shit 😭

started the day with some breakfast at komeda's coffee, they have a morning set and auugfhjhghh the bread used in japan cafes' toast is always so soft and fluffy..obsessed

Komeda's Coffee コメダ珈琲店 (chain store, multiple outlets)

at nakano broadway, the basement had some supermarkets/grocery stores and one of them sold sashimi. i didn't end up buying from here, but...LOOK at this sashimi, for 580jpy?? omg 😭😭😭 i want

we had lunch at a hayashi rice place near nakano broadway! i had curry omurice myself while my friend got the hayashi omurice. the omelette was sooo good...society if i could cook an egg like this on my own

Monjaya Mon もんじゃや紋 170-0013 Tokyo, Toshima City, Higashiikebukuro, 1 Chome−12−10 ヤンズビル 3F

Day 3 (15/5/2024)

on my morning walk i decided to try a canned drink from a vending machine. satsuma-imo milk! so in singapore, there was recently a 'nutri-grade' rating introduced mandatory for all drinks to indicate the sugar level in the drink. i didn't think i would miss it in japan LOL i'm sorry but drinking this drink was like drinking sugar syrup T_TT i think as i got older my sugar tolerance has drastically dropped..

we started at akihabara, and had brunch at niku no mansei (yes the well-known building with like 10 floors of meat before it closed, i think it split into a couple of places?) we went to the akiba place branch for their hemborger hamburg steak...how am i supposed to go back to eating it in singapore after this?? 🫠 IT'S SO GOOD (i'm also laughing at the token broccoli though)

Niku no Mansei Akiba Place 肉の万世アキバプレイス店 101-0021 Tokyo, Chiyoda City, Sotokanda, 3 Chome−15−1, Akiba Place, 3F

after akiba we went to asakusa, and since it's asakusa we had to have some tendon..we just went into one of the tendon places we spotted but i didn't realise it was akimitsu!? we have akimitsu in singapore too 😂 but loved the tempura eel!

Akimitsu 秋光 111-0032 Tokyo, Taito City, Asakusa, 1 Chome-29-11

Day 4 (16/5/2024)

i got some plum onigiri from famima for breakfast on my morning walk. oughgkhghjh i already miss conbini onigiri so much...affordable yet tasty! i really love onigiri, but our convenience store onigiri in singapore is a bit overpriced, which wouldn't be so bad if the onigiri itself wasn't also terrible with cold hard rice :')

we started the day at tsukiji outer market. SEAFOOD..... we finally got some sashimi today, my beloved,,, we had engawa truffle salt sushi and also a sashimi bowl of the day. and also it was my first time trying shiokara! apparently it's squid in a kind of sauce made from fermented fish/sea animal innards. i'm not sure if it might be an acquired taste, but for a seafood lover like me it was so good 🥺 the lady serving us food was also really nice and we had a little chat even with our terrible spoken japanese lol.

Taneichi たねいち 104-0045 Tokyo, Chuo City, Tsukiji, 4 Chome-9-5

i also found shirako in the market! it was my first time eating it (i think it can be found in singapore? but not particularly common). other than the shiso leaf it was served plain though, while i like the taste i kinda wish i had rice or something to go with it.

also we got some matcha latte from the market before leaving! i got the 'less sweet' which was perfect, when a lot of times the least sweet (without being zero sugar) option from drink stores are too sweet for me..

Matcha Stand Maruni マッチャスタンドマルニ 104-0045 Tokyo, Chuo City, Tsukiji, 4 Chome−14−18

some ramen for dinner at ryogoku! admittedly i'm not a super into ramen person 😅 but butter in noodles is always such a nice combo!

Tadokoro Shoten 田所商店 (chain store, multiple outlets)

and some parfait for supper. look at their logo!! so cute 🥹🥹🥹

Mayonaka Farm (Ryogoku Yokozuna Yokocho outlet) 真夜中牧場両国横綱横丁店 130-0026 Tokyo, Sumida City, Ryogoku, 3 Chome-22-8

Day 5 (17/5/2024)

started the day with some zaru soba. it was nice but cold soba was kind of a mistake because it was raining that morning and so COLD lol

Yudetaro ゆで太郎 (chain store, multiple outlets)

we started at shinjuku today and walked our way down to shibuya. with my friend's recommendation we tried blue bottle coffee? the latte was nice and even had this natural sweetness(?) to it despite not adding sugar.

Blue Bottle Coffee ブルーボトルコーヒー (chain store, multiple outlets)

and then we went to takeshita street. i think marion crepes is the most well-known one, but the queue..??? so we ended up going to another crepe store. it's still a treat and has a variety of flavours! i got the regular strawberry whipped cream.

Santa Monica Crepes サンタモニカクレープ 150-0001 Tokyo, Shibuya City, Jingumae, 1 Chome-16-16-8

late lunch at yomenya goemon! i had the tarako butter one and i really liked it...i think i could try buying some mentaiko from donki back home and trying it out myself..

Yomenya Goemon 洋麵屋五右衛門 (chain store, multiple outlets)

Day 6 (18/5/2024)

conbini haul for the morning. i would like to shoutout to famima's pudding in particular; i feel a lot of store-bought pudding tend to be closer to the jelly-like consistency, but i prefer my pudding to be closer to the creamy? eggy? like consistency and famima's pudding is perfect for the price ;w;

we went to miura peninsula in kanagawa for the day using the misaki maguro ticket (it's so worth!! highly recommend if you want a day trip from tokyo). for breakfast we had some coffee and toast at coffee house poem. their signature blend (kaigan blend) in particular was really unique and nice..kinda regret not ordering that for myself 😂 love the rustic interior too!

Coffee House Poem (Miurakaigan outlet) ぽえむ三浦海岸駅前店 238-0101 Kanagawa, Miura, Minamishitauramachi, Kamimiyada-3130

nearby there's a souvenir shop selling mainly jams, and pickles (including daikon, one of miura's specialties). did you know that i hated eating radish until japanese daikon changed my life 🤣 i also got some persimmon jam to try since i'd never really heard of it! and also some honey+daikon candy.

Temiyage Iroiro Miura Store 手土産いろいろ三浦ストア 238-0101 Kanagawa, Miura, Minamishitauramachi, Kamimiyada-3255

and finally we got SUSHI...i could cry the maguro here is so good 😭😭😭😭😭 the place is called 'kaitenzushi kaisen', but the sushi does not actually 'kaiten'/revolve, the chefs just serve it 😂 we used the maguro ticket on this so we got some maguro and some local catch!

Kaitenzushi Kaisen 廻転寿司海鮮 238-0101 Kanagawa, Miura, Minamishitauramachi, Kamimiyada-3372-18

we then took the train to misakiguchi station, and the bus to misaki port. there's a market there called urari marche, which sells seafood and veggies mainly. we got some skewer hotate (scallop) and maguro karaage there! i was not a big fan of the maguro karaage though..i still think maguro is best as sashimi lol

Urari Marché うらりマルシェ 238-0243 Kanagawa, Miura, Misaki, 5 Chome-3-1

right next to the port was a cafe i used my ticket on, for some danish loaf with pistachio ice cream and a coffee drink. the ice cream goes so well with the fruity loaf!

3204 bread&gelato 238-0243 Kanagawa, Miura, Misaki, 3 Chome-12-10

Day 7 (19/5/2024)

went for a short walk at ueno park in the morning. there were some food stalls there! we tried some of the freshly roasted hojicha, and also some mitarashi dango. there's some skewered fish that looked good but i didn't try because i was scared of the bones 😅 and other kinda matsuri-like foods such as kakigori and yakisoba, a bit higher priced i guess because of the tourists there but i'm not a fan of yakisoba so 😆

also there was an asian food festival going on near shinobazu pond! i didn't try the food (it seemed largely SEAsian food, we can get cheaper thai, viet food etc in singapore anyway), but also for some reason there is a food truck for US food? and the representative food is 'american long potato' 😂 is that a thing in US? (ok but i know US is huge)

i met up with a friend for lunch at akiba and they recommended ootoya! a restaurant chain for teishoku. i got the recommended fried fish and veg in sweet vinegar sauce and 🥺 the taste mix is so good! i also wanted to randomly bring up something i'll miss about japan: pretty much every eatery, whether cafe or restaurant, serves free water, or even green tea! you rarely get free water in singapore eateries even though we have friggin drinkable tap water here 🙄 (except in japanese chains like saizeriya or sukiya..lol) you'll have to buy overpriced bottled mineral water or something even if you just want water to go with your meal.

Ootoya 大戸屋 (chain store, multiple outlets)

after some walking around akiba (i.e. combing weeb stores), we stopped for some thick fluffy toast and drink (mine was cinnamon toast and almond cafe latte) at vault coffee. true it was a sunday, but we were surprised that it was some random cafe hidden in third floor of what looked otherwise like a normal commercial building on the outside, and it was still soo crowded, we had to wait a little while to be seated!

VAULT COFFEE 101-0021 Tokyo, Chiyoda City, Sotokanda, 4 Chome−5−1 3F

and this marks the end of our week-long food journey in japan 😆 i had to save a lot of funds for my splurging on weeb and stationery stuff LOL, but i hope the next time i come i can focus more on sightseeing and food maybe! but for now it's back to capitalism to save up first 🏃

Ps.If you enjoy my work, please reblog it. Just liking the post won’t help others discover it.

Special OS : Phantom Thread

[Episodes 8] Try looking into that place where you dare not look! You'll find me there, staring out at you.

Arrakis—Dune—Desert Planet

The words surfaced from nowhere as your mind sank into slumber.

In the space between sleep and waking, you saw a dim stone cavern illuminated by the faint glow of glowglobes. Every shadowy corner was filled with people—the people of the desert, whose blue eyes mirrored your own.

“Look outside,” a mysterious voice echoed, resonating throughout the cavern. It was a crackling sound, a blend of many voices, young and old at once.

You did as the voice commanded. looking out from the mouth of the cave. Beyond, a vast desert stretches endlessly. a barren and desolate expanse, yet radiant under the faint iridescent haze of pre-dawn mist.

For a moment, a long-forgotten poem your mother once recited came to mind:

My lungs taste the air of time.

blown past falling sands.

The pale white sun began its slow ascent over the edge of the cliff. Its milky light touches the dust suspended over the sands, casting a dazzling blend of yellow and blue sparkles.

A warm desert breeze stirs, carrying with it the faint scent of cinnamon, dust drifting into the cave and filling your senses. Your awareness sharpens.

The dust drifting over the desert—it's spice, you realized. And this was Arrakis, without a doubt.

Suddenly, a wave of longing and sorrow overwhelms you, so intense that tears well up in your eyes, and you begin to sob.

Arrakis—a forgotten planet, long erased from the annals of history. This place was the homeland of the Fremen. It is a past that can never be reclaimed, a place that was both the origin and the final chapter of your people.

At that instant, you hear a low murmur from deep within the cave. It sounds like a prayer, an entreaty, echoing the same phrase over and over: “Lisan al-Gaib.” The name of the prophesied one, the man who once led Arrakis to its greatest glory, and the one who ultimately destroyed everything.

It is said that when Paul Atreides first heard the Fremen call him Lisan al-Gaib, he felt the stirrings of a dark will buried deep within himself.

And that was exactly what you felt now—the seed of a familiar darkness, blooming somewhere in the vision, as if it had always been a part of you.

As you blinked again, the image of Arrakis faded, dissolving into memories of a future yet to come. You found yourself on Tatooine, standing before a young boy with golden hair, dressed in tattered clothes. Deep in your subconscious, a whisper told you this was your descendant, born centuries from now—the second Kwisatz Haderach, another man of prophecy believed to bring balance to the Force, rising above both Sith and Jedi.

You watched his life unfold, each moment passing like sand falling through an hourglass. From a small boy, he grew into a Padawan, then a Jedi Knight, before being consumed by the Dark Side. He forsook the Jedi way and transformed into a Sith, becoming a powerful and ruthless Dark Lord of the Sith, waging war across the galaxy. He laid waste to planets, extinguishing millions of lives—a catastrophe no different from the Jihad ignited by the first Kwisatz Haderach.

In the stream of visions, the name of Paul Atreides had been replaced by a new tyrant’s name—Anakin Skywalker.

"The only way you'll know is if you drink it," the same collective voice echoed once more in your mind. This time, it sounded exactly like your mother’s voice.

You remembered a moment five years ago—the last time you spoke with your mother. Her image remained vividly imprinted in your memory, as clear as if it had happened only yesterday. You saw her sitting across from you at the old, weathered table, her hand offering you a glass filled with a clear, blue liquid.

It wasn’t just any poison—it was what the Fremen call the ‘Water of Life’, a sacred substance distilled from the death of a sandworm. The ultimate test for a Sayyadina[1] and Bene Gesserit seeking to ascend to the rank of Reverend Mother. A trial with only two possible outcomes: pass the test or perish.

What your mother did wasn’t a deliberate attempt at suicide. It was a gamble—a risk she took to prove herself. Over the millennia, countless others had attempted this feat, but they all failed and died. Your mother was one of them. And you might face the same fate if you choose to take on this trial.

There was only a ten percent chance of success.

"Drink it."

The mysterious voice from your dream still haunts you as you wake at dawn.

You jolt awake, cold sweat beading on your forehead. Everything from the dream leaves you shaken, terrified by the future that lies ahead—a fate beyond your control. Your descendant will become a calamity to the galaxy, a tyrant whose name will be spoken with fear—Darth Vader.

That morning, you tell Qimir that you’re not feeling well. The pallor of your face, a result of your nightmares, makes the lie all the more convincing. He allows you to rest while he takes over managing the pharmacy. Once Qimir leaves the house, you return to your bed, sitting cross-legged, closing your eyes, and focusing on your breath. entering the Bene Gesserit meditation state. You probe through the opaque veil of time, stepping into the murky streams of the future that swirl all around you.

There must be a path, you think. A path to avoid catastrophe, a path where there is no second Kwisatz Haderach.

Your mind aches from the strain of using your prescient power, as if you've been staring at a bright light for too long. But what's different is that in your vision, there is no light—only darkness, a suffocating void that consumes every possible path, leaving no trace of the future in sight.

Anxiety grips you tighter. You push deeper, delving as far as your weakened powers allow. Yet, no matter what you attempt, everything remains unchanged—you can no longer perceive what lies ahead

How is this possible? you wonder. It's not that your power has disappeared; it's still there in your body, an inseparable part of you. But why can’t you see anything?

Then the realization strikes. This is an omen, a sign of impending disaster—of evil and death obscured from sight. A forbidden zone in the stream of time, one only a Reverend Mother or a Kwisatz Haderach can break through.

You snap out of your trance, fear swelling in your chest as you remember the cryptic words whispered in your dream:

"The only way you'll know is if you drink it."

You know what you have to do next, but you are too afraid to do it. Not because you fear death, but because you're well aware of the consequences that would follow if you succeeded.

In that case, you would rather die.

“I have no choice,” you murmur, letting yourself sink into a moment of despair. Suddenly, a profound loneliness envelops you—one you’ve never felt before. Deep within your soul, you sense that Paul Atreides experienced the same when he first accepted the name Lisan al-Gaib, fully aware of the terrible fate awaiting him.

Even the Kwisatz Haderach cannot escape the dreadful destiny they foresee.

You can only hope—hope that you won't end up like Paul, hope that there is still a chance to change something before everything spirals into a darkness far worse than you can imagine.

You rise to your feet and step toward the chest of clothes at the foot of the bed, nestled against the wall. Slowly, you lift its wooden lid, a soft creak breaking the silence. Reaching deep beneath the pile of clothes, your fingers brush against something cool, hidden underneath. You pull it out, revealing a gleaming, clear glass bottle containing a bright blue liquid—the poison your mother gave you five years ago. You didn’t drink it then but kept it sealed, hidden away, never once thinking to use it. Until today.

You pull out the wooden stopper, inhaling the scent of cinnamon wafting into your nose. As you raise the bottle to your lips, you recite your mother's teachings in your mind over and over, fighting to quell the rising fear and hesitation.

I must not fear.

Fear is the mindkiller.

Fear is the little death that brings total obliteration.

I will face my fear.

I will permit it to pass over me and through me.

And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path.

Where the fear has gone, there will be nothing.

Only I will remain.

The litany washes over you, bringing a sense of calm. With eyes closed and a steady breath, you focus your mind. In one swift motion, you drink the poison down in a single gulp.

The sweet, effervescent taste of the Water of Life spreads from your tongue down to your stomach. Every cell in your body rapidly absorbs the strange substance. You feel a wave of heat from head to toe, surging through your veins and flowing into every nerve. The poison takes over completely, overwhelming your consciousness, while your white blood cells frantically scramble to keep you alive.

You now find yourself teetering on the fragile threshold between life and death.

Your senses begin to falter. The images in your eyes flicker between clarity and blurriness. Your entire body feels weightless and numb. You don’t even feel the pain when your face crashes hard onto the wooden floor.

And suddenly, everything falls into utter silence, as if time has abruptly frozen.

Your mind and body have completely detached. You are now nothing more than a speck of dust floating aimlessly through the vast, infinite expanse of space. You can feel and perceive everything—everything happening in the present, the past, and the future—all layered upon one another like a grand library. Your essence drifts, brushing against the spines of each book, books bearing your name, the names of your ancestors, and the names of the Reverend Mothers who came before. As you touch them, you see their memories—the vivid images of every one of them standing in a long line across the desert of time, stretching out as far as the eye can see.

A voice rings out from nowhere, gravelly and harsh, belonging to a man. What have you done? The Water of Life will kill you! He barks, his voice sharp with fury, making you jolt and tremble. You’re dying. You’re not ready for this trial!

In the shared awareness, you sense the authority behind his voice, a power that fills you with awe and trepidation. Still, you argue back, There’s no time... you know why I had to drink it. Your voice is so weak, barely a whisper. I need to see it. Please let me see it.

Silence follows, and you feel his concern and tension. Whoever this man is, he genuinely cares for you. His mind races to find a way to save you as your life force flickers, fading with every passing second, and could extinguish at any time.

He’s right—you’re dying. You're too weak to bear the weight of full awakening all at once.

There’s only one way, he says quickly. You must let me in. Let me become one with you. But if you do, you may be consumed. You will never be the same again. Will you accept me?

You know well that you have no other choice left. I accept you answer.

In that moment, your eyes perceive a brilliant light. The dust of another essence is floating towards you, sparkling like stars in the night sky.

Slowly and gently, that dust gradually moves closer until it touches yours, merging with you and blending into one harmonious being.

A warmth spreads through your body, enveloping you in a soft embrace and comforting you like a father holding his beloved daughter. It is a feeling of familiarity and safety you have long yearned for.

You absorb his essence, just as he absorbs yours, sharing your very being with each other. This process allows you to access his experiences. You witness it all through your own eyes—his memories, his life, his love, his losses, his death. All floods into you at once.

You’re utterly astounded when you realize who this mysterious man is.

But there’s no time for questions. Your consciousness is now being pulled toward a massive black hole, driven there by his will. The knowledge unlocked by the Water of Life makes you realize that this is the core of the prophecy you have been searching for: ‘Alam al-Mithal,’[2] the hidden truth of the universe, the mysterious place of time that only the Kwisatz Haderach can access.

The strange gravitational force from the bottomless void pulls you in, drawing you closer and closer until every part of you is engulfed by the darkness

And then, in an instant, you comprehend everything—every moment, everywhere in every universe—laid bare before you.

A torrent of infinite information floods into you, threatening to tear you apart piece by piece. Overwhelmed beyond all limits, your perception is crushed mercilessly. Your mind twists and compresses, teetering on the brink of shattering, pulling you toward the abyss of madness.

In the physical realm, your body convulses violently, internally ravaged by unseen wounds. Crimson blood trickles from your eyes, ears, nose, and quivering lips.

You are on the verge of losing your sanity, and your life hangs by a thread. But at that critical moment, another presence gently envelops you, shielding you. A faint, raspy whisper echoes in your mind. Don't worry. Stay calm. You'll be alright.

The voice is soft yet imbued with immense power, like a cool breeze sweeping across a scorching desert.

Your body begins to relax. Your mind returns to equilibrium, smoothing out all your thoughts into a unified calm.

You become like an enlightened being, observing the endless cycle of all life. Familiar stories and characters swirl in a scene that has shifted from what you once knew.

Amidst the beginning and end of all things, you witness your own tale: before you were just a small life in your mother's womb. Your mother, driven by fierce determination, attempted to create a new Kwisatz Haderach. She consumed vast amounts of spice while pregnant, hoping to birth a son who would be a male Bene Gesserit like Paul Atreides. However, the poison claimed the life of the male child before he could be born, leaving only a daughter to survive.

You—the daughter who was branded as an abomination from birth, the one who drank the Water of Life and rose to become the last Reverend Mother, destined to give birth to a daughter, continuing the bloodline of women through generation after generation, until the first man is born into the family—Anakin Skywalker, the chosen one, the second Kwisatz Haderach.

But on the path leading to the brutal war a century from now, you will face countless deaths along the way. You foresee a vision of Jedi corpses scattered across the ground and a Sith in a black cloak, wearing a cracked metal helmet, towering before you, holding a crimson lightsaber in his hand. You instinctively recognize him as the same man who has haunted your dreams and the same assassin who murdered the Jedi on Orega.

You can feel it in your soul. You and he are destined to meet soon.

This is a script written from the very beginning. Your birth and the story that follows were fated to be thus, like threads intricately woven seamlessly into the grand tapestry of the universe.

The stream of time, past and future, merges into one before splitting into two main paths. It reveals the beginning that leads to the ultimate end, where you will face a pivotal decision that will determine the fate of all life.

To stop it, or to let it happen

The immense weight of responsibility presses down on your shoulders, as if carrying the burden of the entire universe. You cry, but it is a silent weeping, without tears, in the void of your own consciousness.

You and I—we all have our roles to play.

The same voice of the man speaks to you. Now, his memories and essence have become part of you. You aren’t even sure who you are anymore. Are you him, or is he you?

Before you can respond, you feel a pull from the real world, intruding into your thoughts. A voice shouting your name, broken and intermittently, like a radio signal disrupted by interference. It is followed by a flood of emotions—grief, confusion, and anger—from someone else that ripples through your awareness.

Qimir His name comes to you, and you know it is time to wake up.

Slowly, you open your eyes. Your blurred vision finally focuses on the weathered, worn-out wooden ceiling above. Black rings of mold mottle the wood in patches. You find yourself lying on a bed, your clothes having been changed. You try to move, but your body feels completely drained of all strength. The poison has dulled every sensation—no heat, no cold, no pain—until the sound of a familiar voice calls your name.

“Hara. Look at me.”

Hara You mull over the name through the fog of your mind. In Chakobsa,[3] it means 'destruction'.

Finally, you understand why your mother gave you this name. Because my bloodline is that of a destroyer

You blink and turn your gaze to Qimir, who sits beside your bed. His face is much more gaunt than before, and the lines of his bones are clearly visible. His bloodshot eyes are filled with strain, dark circles forming underneath as though he hasn’t slept in days. His large hand grips yours tightly, his intense eyes never wavering from you.

“What the hell were you thinking?” he rasps, his voice shaking with the effort to control his rising anger. “Three weeks—three weeks you’ve been unconscious because of that damn poison. What were you trying to do? Were you trying to kill yourself?”

You shut your eyes, unable to bear looking at him for even a second longer. Not because of hatred, but because of what you have seen in the mysterious realm of Alam al-Mithal.

You feel a gentle touch on your cheek, Qimir's rough hand caressing your face carefully. "Is it because of me? Am I the reason you did this to yourself?”

At last, you open your eyes again, meeting his gaze. You want so badly to tell him it isn’t his fault and that he has no part in this terrible chain of events. But you know that would be a lie, and Qimir would surely see right through you.

“I’m sorry,” you whisper, seeing the pain in Qimir’s weary eyes, the many tears he has shed for you during those long, silent three weeks. Weeks in which he barely ate or slept, searching desperately for a way to keep you breathing.

The Water of Life has expanded your perceptions, transforming what were once fleeting glimpses into a clear understanding. Now, you can see and know everything. But even without this heightened awareness, it takes no special insight to recognize the depth of Qimir's feelings for you. His love is profound, silent, and undeniable—a truth you instantly perceive from the emotional bond between you and him.

Your heart clenches with the conflict that tears at you. You love him as he loves you, but you are also terrified of the truth that this love will become the spark of catastrophe, bringing destruction to both of you and many others.

You bury your sorrow for the future that hasn’t yet arrived. You lift your hand, placing it over Qimir’s hand, still resting on your cheek. “I love you,” you whisper, the words coming from the deepest part of your heart.

Qimir gazes at you, and you can see the flicker of emotion in his eyes. He nods slightly before responding, “I know.” Then he leans down and places a gentle kiss on your forehead.

You swallow the sob that is lodged in your throat, guilt rising in your chest. You know there is no other choice. You have to do what is necessary to protect something far greater, even if it means destroying the trust and love he has for you.

You can only pray that he will still be able to forgive you for the decision you're about to make.

Footnotes:

[1] Sayyadina (meaning ‘friend of God’ in Chakobsa) was used by the Fremen to describe their lower-ranking priestesses who had not yet transformed the Water of Life and become Reverend Mothers. Their position is comparable to the Bene Gesserit Sisters, as both come from the same religious roots

[2] Alam al-Mithal from the Dune novels is a mystical realm in religious belief where physical limitations vanish and the minds of some deceased individuals reside. This world connects God with His creations, offering communion, revelation, and prophecy to messengers and prophets. Only the Kwisatz Haderach can access this realm.

[3] Chakobsa is a fictional language from the Dune series, used primarily by the Fremen people.

I just now cleaned these up, but I made some fankids for Al & Mei

[Image ID in alt text]

They don’t have names yet, cus im currently trying to research chinese names and information about them!!

If any of yall have info on Chinese names and like, the culture surrounding them then please send it to me!

I have some of the basics, but I mostly just need to figure out how to structure a name that actually works, especially for a group of siblings!

Anyways, as far as info about these four go, they’re two sets of twins!

fraternal (top left and bottom left), and identical (top right and bottom right)!

The top left one is also the only boy.

I had to draw the kiddos as adults (or at least not babies) so I could actually get their faces down first, but here’s this actual kid versions!!

[Image ID in alt text]

Bam!! a family portrait I made (in weird gold tones for some reason) !!

Also, more rambling under the cut

As far as how I went about “distributing” mei and Al’s features, I did make a list of who got what lol but that’s boring

I mostly just tried to stick with the golden eyes being a dominant trait, though none of the kids’ eyes are as bright as Al or Ed’s

I imagine that they would all learn a little bit of alchemy, alchehestry (??) or whatever combination Al comes up with!

Also, a note here, I was trying to think about how old mei actually is when I first came up with this idea, and it seems like during the canon she’s 13? And I think Al is 14 or 15.

Anyway they wouldn’t get together til a bit later, when Al is in xing, so that’s not a problem as far as I can tell

That’s all though!!! Thanks for reading through this mess, if you did :]

I'm feeling sad today, so FLUFFY COLE X VANIA HEADCANONS TIME!

FEAST YOUR EYES UPON MY HALFBAKED SHIPPING IDEAS!!!🤣🤣🤣 Lol. I need something to cheer me up. These or Pixane usually does the trick. Also, I wrote most of these well past my bedtime. So you KNOW it's gonna be fun! Lol! And I have a little post-series stuff thrown in too. So these headcanons aren't canon to Dragons Rising. Just wanted to make that clear. Anyhoo, let's go!

1: Vania fell first. Cole fell harder.

2: They like to go hiking and spelunking ALL the time. They're the cutest little adventure duo ever! They've discovered all sorts of secret places in Shintaro's mountains. And even some ancient artifacts and cave paintings from Shintaro's past!

3: Whenever Cole visits Shintaro, Vania just lights up. She's happiest when she has her bestie with her.❤️

4: Vania once tried to teach Cole how to use the Shintarians Flight Packs. He was absolutely terrified at first. (Falling off of stuff trauma.😭) But Vania told him to focus on something nice so he wouldn't look down too much. He ended up looking at her. Cue mutual blushing and shy downward glances.🤣

5: Cole taught her some new dance moves. (She had been brought up on more refined forms of dance. Like waltz and such.) She wanted to try something different.

6: At first, they are both quite shy around each other. Not quite sure how close to get. But eventually once they got comfortable around each other, they became very snuggly and affectionate. Especially Cole.😊🧡🧡🧡

7: Everyone in the Ninja fam were super happy when Cole finally admitted to liking Vania. He'd always been so supportive of their own relationships. So they were happy he'd finally have a partner of his own to love.

8: Vise versa, the Geckle and Munce were very excited that the Skyfolk Queen was interested in the Son of Gilly/Milly.

9: Vania loves to chatter about her interests and Cole is always happy to listen. (Chatty Extrovert x Good Listener!😁) Vania sometimes secretly worries she's talking his ear off. She doesn't know that Cole loves just hearing her voice.🥹❤️

10: Vania is very protective of Cole. She loves him dearly. Even before they started their relationship. She wasn't kidding when she said she would bring her entire army to his aid. (As seen in Crystalized.) That being said, I think she would do anything in her power to help keep him safe.

Okay, post series ones now!

11: Cole had this perfect plan for proposing to her. Except he wasn't expecting one thing. When it finally came time to propose, Vania proposed at the same time. 🤣 They laughed about it more a good ten minutes before exchanging rings.

12: Cole ends up becoming King Consort of Shintaro. At first, the Shintarian people are a bit apprehensive to the idea of having some who isn't a Shintarian on the throne. But this changes quickly after seeing what a good ruler he is. And he quickly becomes popular with the people.

13: They have three kids. Their names are Valkyrie, Zephyr, and Collette. AKA Cole Jr.✨ More on that later.

14: Val and Zephie here are twins. But, they're aren't identical twins. Val looks more human and is the spitting image of Lilly. Except with streaks of gold in her black hair. Meanwhile, Zephyr looks more like a Shintarian. And he has the opposite. Gold hair with black streaks.

15: Cole was unbelievably excited about finally becoming a father. He'd always wanted kids of his own. When Val and Zephyr were born, he actually cried when he got to hold them. He couldn't believe him and Vania could make something so beautiful.

16: Collette is the baby of the family. She's adorable and definitely a daddy's girl. Also, this happened;👉

Jay: Hey Cole! I guess you missed out on naming one of your kids Cole Jr again, huh?

Cole: *smirks* Oh? Meet your niece, Collette.

Jay: A- *Jay EXE. has stopped*

Cole: *Dabs in victory*

Kai: Son of a gun. He did it.

And FINALLY, this funky quick doodle I did of them. It's kinda "Meh" but I tried.😅 (Vania is a nightmare for me to draw. Lol.)

On a side note, I'll probably do something like this for each of my favorite Ninjago ships. That should be fun!

(Tagging @only-lonely-stars because I know she like these two. Hope you don't mind!)
