I love the 2016-2017 Disney Princesses comics because they are very cute, quite funny and pretty, add a few cute good lore elements, and have characters bond
Notably it has Merida and her ex suitors having become friends after the movie's events which is adorable. None wanted marriage and she didn't want to put aside her tomboyish personalities they were allowed to have, so they all bonded over those as the clans made peace. That's adorable
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I also love the balance of consistency (Wee Dingwall is not stupid. He just has a resting high face especially when he is not happy to be there or doing that. And these strips understood that) and evolution (none used to understand Young MacGuffin now they do and just "translate" for us readers, they all used to be shocked and embarrassed Merida was superior to them now they gladly accept it and try to better themselves and show off to her not an unfriendly way, Wee Dingwall speaks more and even though Young MacIntosh is still proud and boasts a lot and still tries to impress the archery expert as if he would teach her anything, it no longer, he no longer seems to fit as many tantrums as before, mock or look down on others, seeing teens his age and a girl who not only is not a trophy for once in his life but a genuine friend as well as someone who had him and the others open their eyes about this arranged marriage thing, he became slightly more humble and seems to still be working on it and heading towards the right way. As for Merida herself, who used to roast and mock them with her dad, now she is more at peace now that they no longer pose a threat to her future and so became helpful, supporting and even when she makes fun it is more light hearted than anything and she aknowledges when they do good (such as no matter how shitty his desmonstration had been Young MacIntosh DID do a bullseye) and is no longer annoyed but amused or concerned about their antic
But my favorite strip is this one for everything is implies and the lore details and potential it gives, especially for how much the movie is about parent-child relationships
Tumblr media
The fact they all agreed to camp together and their parents agreed implying the clans are closer than ever and them, future clan leaders, will be closer than ever for having hunted together, fought together and camped around a fire in the middle of nowhere together in their youth
The confirmation Merida isn't/wasn't (it seems to take place after the movie but I guess even if the bond was mended and Elinor now accepts her daughter's tastes and opinions she still must expect her to keep practicing stuff essential for a Lady's future, or a compromise Merida accepts to do now they understand each other even if she doesn't like it) the only one to have to follow strict royal lessons but they all did which puts even more into perspective their roles in the movie and why they approved her choice
The implication that either the Lords are like Elinor at home being more up to the rules, serious and strict than Fergus and just being feral once together as men OR it has to do with gender and the mothers have to be like that to their daughters and so do the fathers to their sons
And the most boring tasks the dads give them have to do with their (dads' and/or sons') traits : Lord MacIntosh is very proud of his lineage and genes (he prides themselves in having the most beautiful hair) so he demands for his proud son to be proud for something useful for once such as about his own family heritage, Lord MacGuffin tries (enhance tries, that's not really how you help but he tries) to have his son more confident and more eloquent as a future leader who will have to be heard and understood by his people in his court or in battle, and then you have Lord Dingwall who just has his son do chores for him, which works with how bossy he is and how it must be his definition of making someone responsible, as well as how the Dingwalls seem to be more practical than show since whereas they are mocked for jist having a rock as sigil, it is a much better weapon than a caldron or a lyre and goes straight to the point without needless symbolism therefore chores must be more important for him in life for a leader than anything else
I am obviously overanalyzing some points, but these go perfectly with my HCs

In the future the young lords become lords of the clan after their fathers died and after a month young lords got married and had children
In memory of their fathers the young lords would tell their children tales of their grandfather's to keep the lords memory alive.

Disney brave bloopers
Merida was on the archery field and announced she is shooting for her own hand but one of the lords was missing and it was Lord Macintosh
Merida: lord dingwall Lord MacGuffin where is Lord Macintosh
Lord Dingwall: I don’t know he is supposed to be next to me
Lord MacGuffin: but he isn’t I hope he hasn’t gotten lost again
But then Young Macintosh pointed up to the clouds and there on the clouds was Lord Macintosh and everyone was shocked
Lord Dingwall: MACINTOSH what the heck
Lord MacGuffin: how did you get up there
Lord Macintosh: hi everyone I’m just watching the view and chilling on a cloud
Queen Elinor: Macintosh you can’t just go on clouds sigh why do you do this
Lord Macintosh: but why
Queen Elinor: it’s not safe Lord Macintosh what if you fall
Lord Macintosh: oh please queen Elinor I can’t handle the fall
Queen Elinor: sigh I give up you better come down or there will be consequences
Lord Macintosh: in a minute please
Lord Dingwall: sigh Macintosh I swear your going to be the death of me
Lord MacGuffin: at least he didn’t get lost
The young lords and Merida were laughing at what happened
Lord Macintosh: don’t ask how did I get up here

Something I am sad for about the fact Pixar wants us to forget Brave exists and won't do any sequel or show is how much I wanted to see how were the homes of the other 3 clans. How it looks like. Their wives (who are either as crazy as them or as done as Elinor). If they love their wives and it's mutual or they stick together because they have to. If the wiveq are alive at all or if at least one of the Lords is a widow. If they have other kids, and if so how many and what genders (Lord Dingwall must not since he presents his son as his only son, but Lord MacGuffin sure does since he presents his as his eldest ; Lord MacIntosh doesn't indicate anything so we are up to imagine for him). What kinds of dads they are at home. How they lead their clans without a rival to fight with. How their houses or castles look like. How Merida and her clan in general are like and act in theirs and towards their members. How much buddies have Merida and the boys have become as merchandise implies ; same for their old men. If Merida would ever end up with Young MacGuffin because this ship is adorable (and was meant to be canon ! And his voice actor did say his characters likes her. And she DID peek)
We were so robbed

Notes
Everybody is all smiles for the group picture, from heroes to villains and everything in-between. Even characters who were otherwise sticks in the mud like Hank genuinely smile for the picture. Villains such as Muntz, de la Cruz, Lotso, Thunderclap and his gang, Syndrome, Evelyn, Randall, Waternoose, Hopper, Skinner, and Ercole, as much of evil psychopaths they were, are seen tenderly and respectfully singing along. Even Sid, who was a massive bully to Hannah, is seen giving her a kind brotherly embrace. Also, most movies’ main cast seem to be cramped together. Even the villains stand near their respective heroes, everyone in a healthy relationship with their families and loved ones are tenderly holding each other close, and many of the larger characters offer their bodies for the smaller ones.
Forky, Heimlich, Dory, Jack-Jack, Mater, WALL-E, and one of the triplets wave at the camera.
Dim and Wee Dingwall give the camera dopey smiles.
The egg-shaped bluebirds and the gawky bird stand perched above the entrance. The bluebirds are happy to have the gawky bird with them, a far cry from how they treated him in their short.
Sulley carries Boo tenderly in his arms. Helen does the same to Jack-Jack, as do Presto with Alec, Carl and Russell with Kevin’s babies, Elinor and Fergus with their triplet sons, Embarrassment with Envy, Massimo with Machiavelli, and Izzy with Sox.
Terri attempts to dance before his other half stops him.
Hank carries Marlin, Dory, and Nemo in a coffee pot.
Voyd and Abby giddily bounce in place, clearly the most excited for the photo.
Linguini carries Remy while Colette holds Django and Emile.
WALL-E and EVE hold the umbrellas from The Blue Umbrella.
HAN-S still can’t stay still, shaking aggressively as the photo is taken.
Kevin and her babies take the time to mimic Carl once again.
Maudie and the Clan Dingwall hunk share a loving look.
Young Macintosh flexes his pecs while giving the camera a cocky smile, the same type of smile given by characters like Terry, Darby, and Clod.
The Witch has her Crow standing perched on her shoulder.
Being stationary volcanoes, Uka and Lele are unable to leave their photo. Thankfully, they have Thunderclap and his gang to hold it so they can be in the group picture.
Nostalgia sticks her head out from behind Embarrassment, clearly hiding from the other emotions.
Riley, Grace, and Bree all carry Knick together while Riley’s parents carry the Miami and Florida knick knacks, Val and the Fire Hawks carry the Egypt, Jamaica, Palm Springs, Israel, and Death Valley knick knacks, and Coach Roberts carries Sunny Atlantis in her fish bowl.
Cindy, Son’s fiancée, winks at the camera as the photo is taken.
Machiavelli gives the camera his standard bored look.
Mei has her red hair, panda ears, and panda tail, continuing to embrace her panda.
Aaron Z gives the camera a thumbs up while Tae Young makes a heart with his hands.
Izzy gives Sox a neck scratch.
Alisha and Kiko’s inclusion also counts due to their backlash following the movie’s release.

On June 5th 1592 an act of the Scottish Parliament came into force “concerning the Office of Lyoun King of Armes and his brether Heraldis”
The Lord Lyon is still in use today and an important office in all heraldic matters.
The title, Lord Lyon - King of Arms, stems from an ancient tradition of sovereign appointment. The appointee is responsible for "granting armorial bearing of the recognition of clan chiefs". The Lord Lyon, who has his own procurator fiscal, investigates abuses of heraldic law.
The position may incorporate the much older Celtic office of royal Seanchaidh or of King’s Poet with responsibility for keeping the royal genealogy and attending the inauguration (later coronation) of the King.
The Lord Lyon is the sole King of Arms in Scotland. He is Head of the Heraldic Executive and the Judge of the Court of the Lord Lyon which has jurisdiction over all heraldic business in Scotland.
On ceremonial occasions the Lord Lyon is accompanied by Her Majesty’s Officers of Arms, all of whom are members of the Royal Household. They are at present Rothesay Herald, Snawdoun Herald and Marchmont Herald, Ormond Pursuivant, Dingwall Pursuivant and Unicorn Pursuivant.
The Officers of Arms may be consulted on matters of heraldry and genealogy by members of the public and may represent their clients before the Lyon Court.
An Act of the Scottish Parliament of 1592 gave the Lord Lyon responsibility for prosecuting as a criminal offence anyone who uses unauthorised Arms. The Court has its own Procurator Fiscal an independent official prosecutor.
In 1672 a further Act of the Scottish Parliament authorised the creation of the Public Register of All Arms and Bearings in Scotland. This Register is maintained by the Lyon Clerk and Keeper of the Records and contains an official copy of every Coat of Arms granted in Scotland since 1672.
Anyone can create their own coat of arms for your family. it is the Lord Lyon, and his deputies that will do a search to verify it is unique and register your design.
Sir David Lyndsay of the Mount a poet and diplomat during the Scottish Renascence was the first official Lord Lyon from 1542–1554 but the actual office of Lord Lyon predates the year 1399, with Henry Greve recorded as the first holder during the reign of Robert III. There is an oft-repeated statement that Robert the Bruce created a Lyon King of Arms in 1318, but this is open to considerable doubt. The story seems to have been originated in the fifteenth century by a sub-prior of Arbroath Abbey, one William de Pittenweem. However, the Exchequer and other Records do not support the assertion and it is not until 1377 that the office of “Lyoun Herauld” is known to have existed.
The Rev. Canon Dr. Morrow is the present day Lord Lyon, he was appointed in 2014.
The first pic is the arms of Lord Lyon, next is Sir David Lindsay of the Mount who was Lord Lyon from 1542 to 1554. A poet and diplomat during Renaissance Scotland, then the Seal of the Lord Lyon King of Arms, created in 1673, depicting the arms of the Lord Lyon, lastly is Lord Lyon King of Arms' crown. The others are labeled

An ever after high oc?? In this economy??
Tumblr media
Guys im having so much trouble with outfits. I have a ton I could show but idk if they're good/eah enough
It is so hard to find Scottish female voices I was about to bite the bullet and make it Kelly macdonald  anywayyyyy there's a short version of their story under the cut i'm not gonna write out a whole long thing so pardon the straightforwardness
Voice claims: Lachlan—Jamie Fraser, outlander  Saoirse—Laoghaire McKenzie—outlander
Tumblr media
This story goes…a little differently. 
After the events of Brave, Clan Dunbroch continued to prosper, now in closer link than ever with the other clans. Princess Merida ascended to the throne, but she never did take a lover or have children. Hamish, Hubert and Harris, all grown up, went on to find their own partners and lead their own lives. Their eldest children—Shaun of Macguffin, Ailsa and Alec Macintosh, and Lachlan of Dingwall—are now all eligible for the Dunbroch throne
Now let’s turn back time a little bit.
The ancient kingdom is crumbling. The first prince has gone on a rampage and Isla has just watched her husband turn into a massive bear. 
She flees. 
It takes her two days to find the witch’s cottage. By then the spell had been set in stone, and the witch can tell the woman is with child. She’s not heartless, she wants to help, but all magic comes with a price. So she does the only other thing she knows how and shepherds them through the magic circle to the realm of the faeries, where no one will ever find them. 
~~~
Lachlan is certain he can win the competition for the throne. He wants it. His grandfather definitely wants it. He’s strong, skilled and fast and not afraid to knock his cousins out of the way, however close they may have been as children. Besides, he’s the Queen’s favorite—how could he lose?
The four clans have all gathered for three weeks of festivities and friendly competition before the actual games. After one too many ruthless victories, Lachlan gets in a fight with his cousins. After being scolded by his father for his behavior as well, the young prince has had enough and takes off into the woods to cool down. 
He brings back a girl.
An odd girl, to be sure; her thick braids make two strange piles on her head and she won’t ever tell him where she’s from, but there are no kingdoms or settlements around here, so a girl lost in the forest needs help! She introduces herself as Saoirse before the Queen and quickly gets welcomed to stay. 
Lachlan likes her at first. She’s fiery and mischievous and actually manages to beat him in combat. It’s just a sparring match, he tells himself, it doesn’t actually matter. Except it does matter. Because Saoirse is getting way too close to the Queen and she’s too good at everything for her- her existence to be natural. Lachlan's cousins loved her, meanwhile Lachlan himself was only growing more irritable and distant. Was she replacing him? What was more, there were rumors that the Queen wanted to let Saoirse, an outsider, compete for the throne! Too bad no one believed Lachlan when he tried to tell them. They all think he’s simply jealous. 
And then one night there’s a bear in the castle.
Understandably, Lachlan panics and draws his sword. He’s heard the stories. What happened to his father, his brothers and the late Queen Elinor. Heard about the demon bear Mor’du. If he doesn’t slay the beast then-
But just before Lachlan calls for help, the bear disappears and a wide eyed Saoirse is standing in its place. Her hair fell loose down her shoulders, revealing furry ears atop her head. 
“W-wait! It’s not- Lachlan listen-“
“Monster!”
“No!”
He had won. He had proof, right there under her hair! If he brought her before the Queen and lords, they’d probably kill her, but so what?
In a desperate flight for life, Saoirse ran through the palace as a bear to escape. The clans awoke with much clamor and the hunt was on, but the beast had disappeared into the night. 
The very next morning, the clans set out again, splitting into groups to canvas the forest more thoroughly. Lachlan set off on his own--he knew just where to go. 
He didn’t find the bear at the stone circle like before. He did find a wisp. A will-o-the wisp! Here to lead him to his fate, undoubtedly. 
Lachlan followed the little spirits eagerly, ignoring the way the trees grew thick and dark, and stone jutted further from the ground. At first, he thought the stone archway was a cave. Inside lay the bear, curled up by a pile of rubble, asleep.
“Wake up.” Lachlan kicked it. He had more honor than to kill a sleeping enemy. 
She transformed back as she startled awake. That was fine, a human was easier to drag back anyway. She was clutching a bow, a sword lay on the stone steps behind her. 
“Did you steal these from the castle?!”
“No, I made them you brute!”
Lachlan scoffed. “You made them?” 
“Yes. Did you think your weapons just popped out of thin air, your highness?”
“I- w- no. But you’re a beast, what the devil do you need weapons for?”
“I'm a human,” she hissed. It was then that Lachlan noticed. Stairs?? And were those carvings? 
“Is this the ancient kingdom? Do you live here?”
“No. I just…come here sometimes.”
“Why?”
The look on her face made him think she might snap at him, but she kept herself in check. Instead, she said, “becoming the kingdom hero won’t make you loved, you know.”
“What? I’m loved, what are you talking about?”
She raised an eyebrow. “Really? Because you don’t act like it. Are we sure I’m the monster here?”
“Yes!”
The girl huffed. “Well, I hope you figure yourself out soon, before it’s too late. You’re really lucky you know. You have so many people who care about you. Four whole clans at your fingertips.” Her own fingers traced a withered carving on cracked stone. She muttered something about “mum told me not to come back here” and stood. Lachlan readied his weapon again, not realizing he had ever lowered it. She didn’t attack him. She simply hefted another massive rock over to her spot from the other side of the cave and laid back down. “Do it then. Go on, I’m ready.”
“What?” 
Saoirse actually managed to look annoyed. “You’re planning to kill me right? For ‘attacking your castle’?” Her voice ridiculed him, yet she seemed completely serious. “Go on then.”
Lachlan actually dropped his weapon then. “What is wrong with you?” What was so important about the stone then that she wanted it close? “Don’t you- I mean okay, I understand being suicidal, but don’t you have someone who would miss you?”
“Nope.”
Lachlan’s heart fell. He dropped down beside her. Surely she couldn’t be serious. “Where do you live?”
A mournful frown pushed her bottom lip out like she was about to cry. “Right here. I was supposed to live here. Ages ago. But it- it got destroyed.” As if an afterthought, she added, “I was never going to hurt you, you know.”
Lachlan finally took a look at the carvings she had rolled over to lean against. The four brothers, he could recognize easily enough. He had heard the story more than enough times for a lifetime from his father and aunt. There were people with them. The king, he assumed, was one, standing in the middle with the crown. The others were three women—the fourth brother didn’t have one, but he held a little boy in front of him. All of the brothers had a family, Lachlan realized. Even the eldest, though he didn’t seem to have a child yet. 
“We never learned about them,” the prince murmured.
“No, you wouldn’t have. They all died.”
“But- but this is all ancient.” She must be crazy. “You can’t live here.”
“Time moves a lot slower in the realm of the faeries.”
Now Lachlan looked at Saoirse like she was in fact crazy. Then it clicked. “The circle…”
Well, that's...kind of sad... “You’re another victim of the witch,” he surmised. He hadn’t thought they could turn into humans again but maybe she had gotten a different spell?
Saoirse snorted. “No, the witch is married to my mum now. She’s lovely, really. I’m-“
“A victim of Mor’du then? Did he kill your family?” 
Saoirse cut him off with a roll of her eyes. “Mor’du was my family ya gommy nyaff.”
“Oh.”

All in all, they returned to the castle. Lachlan apologized and made up with his family. Saoirse, with some trials of trust, was welcomed back as well. Eventually, Lachlan does take the throne. Except there were never any competitive games. Or rather, the lead up was the competition, in a sense. The Queen wanted to test the heirs' genuine traits and familial bonds. With the ability to admit he was wrong and put family above himself, Lachlan passed with flying colors.

biography:
In a land of legends and lessons, there was a great kingdom nestled in the thick woodlands of DunBroch. A great king and queen ruled this kingdom, a great legacy formed around changing ones fate shortly after. The great kingdom, once on the brink of war between its four clans now forged into one. The lords of MacGuffin, Dingwall, Macintosh flying under the banner of DunBorch, keeping peace within the realm.
As time went on, the queen had a child. And after some more time they had another, which became a trio of anothers. Triplets. Harris, being the youngest one. Being born a prince had it's perks as Harris, along with his triplet brothers, would often play pranks and cause chaos throughout the castle in his youth. As time went on, the princeling's careless behavior provided consequences as peace between the four clans was growing uncertain.
His older sibling not taking well to a suitor from the other clans growing the air of uncertainty, Harris attempts to take fate into his own hands as well, offering to aide their older sibling in whatever was needed to maintain peace. As a result of changing their fate, Harris along with the rest of the triplets were cursed to be werefolk, with the oldest of the three gaining the largest and strongest of the bear's strength and size.
Harris, being the youngest of the triplets, gained the smallest size of the bears. Shortly after, he was taken into hiding by his older sibling where he would attempt to master the werebear's skills until they were just right. As the three remained in exile, they happened upon a golden haired man by the moniker of Goldie Locks. Harris had thought of him as a thief, seeing as their first interaction together left the three bears' home nearly in shambles and porridge eaten. Despite their tumultuous start, Harris enjoys the company of Goldie Locks and now journeys throughout the realm, hoping to gain better control of his shifting each full moon.

La verdadera posesión de un hombre es su memoria. En nada más es rico, en nada más es pobre"
John Alexander Smith
Tumblr media
Fue un filósofo, economista y académico inglés, nacido en Dingwall en abril de 1863, profesor de moral y metafísica en Waynflete, y académico en Balliol College en Oxford.
Su educación inicial fue en la Inverness Academy de la Universidad de Oxford, en la que fue admitido como expositor de Warner y erudito honorario en 1884. 
Desempeñó un papel innovador en la institución de la carrera de Filosofía, Política y economía de la Universidad de Oxford.
Elaboró una especie de filosofía neocraciana, en la que incluyó algunos elementos de la Gentile y que fue expuesta en su libro “Knowing and acting” en 1910.
Los puntos centrales de su doctrina son la afirmación de la historicidad de lo real, absorbida en una eternidad supratemporal y la afirmación de que lo real no es la naturaleza o la materia, sino únicamente el espíritu, que en su forma más alta, se realiza como autoconciencia y se despliega como filosofía.
Con lo anterior, Smith combate por una parte la teoría del absoluto acuñada por el filósofo inglés Francis Herbert Bradley, cuya metafísica es de un monismo radical, en donde, dado que la verdad se encuentra únicamente en la unidad del todo, toda afirmación de una multiplicidad de sustancias está en contraste con la realidad.
Para Smith, el pragmatismo es considerada “la no filosofía”, aunque curiosamente la influencia de este tendencia se llega a apreciar en algunos aspectos de su doctrina.
Sus logros visibles fueron sus trabajos con William David Ross el filósofo escocés reconocido por su trabajo en la ética y por su obra “The right and the good” (publicada en 1930).
Smith realizó junto con David Ross una traducción de 12 volúmenes de Aristóteles.
Smith contribuyó en las Conferencias Gifford, una serie anual de conferencias establecidas en 1887 por el testamento de Lord Gifford y cuyo propósito es difundir el estudio de la teología natural.
John Alexander Smith murió en diciembre de 1939 en Oxford a la edad de 76 años.

I watched Mr. Peabody and Sherman for the first time a few months ago, and the "Biting" hoopla instantly reminded me of The Boxtrolls. That eventually led to me filling out this meme.
Cu Sidhe are fairy dogs from Gaelic folklore, said to be harbingers of death. I figure if trolls and vampires can be made sympathetic, so can other fantasy creatures. So here you go; the story of a little boy, raised by talking dogs, must fight to protect his found family from an overly ambitious errant knight.
Starring...
Sherman Peabody from Mr. Peabody and Sherman as Eggs.
Young Merida from Brave as Winnie (Because Penny and her parents can all suck a lemon)
Queen Elenor as Lady Portly-Rind (only other female character, and she only has two lines, bleahhhh)
King Fergus as Lord Portly-Rind.
King Magnifico from Wish as Snatcher (almost sympathetic, but not quite)
Queen Amaya as Madame Frou-Frou (because evil husband-wife team for the win)
Collete from Ratatouille as Mister Trout.
Alfredo Linguini as Mister Pickles.
Turbo from Wreak-It Ralph as Mister Gristle.
Lord MacGuffin, Lord Macintosh, and Lord Dingwall as the White Hats.
And now the title characters-
Mr. Peabody himself as Shoe (the one who raises Eggs)
Dug from Up as Wheels.
Nougat from Over the Hedge as Bucket.
Krypto the Super Dog as Fish (Mr. Peabody's husband)
Luiz from Rio as Sparky.
Perito from The Last Wish as Oil Can.
PolterPup from Luigi's Mansion as Knickers.
Pops from Secret Life of Pets as Fragile.
Duke as Sweets.
Max as Clocks.
Gidget as Specs (because I wanted to include at least one female)
