Tumblr Hiatus
I will be taking a hiatus from tumbl until the beginning of January. I have a lot of stuff going on IRL, and tumblr (the website) is tumblring hard and it’s making me feel extremely discourged to the point of where I’m actually debating if I’ll continue writing, or being as active as I usually am, on this blog in the future.
I do have a fic in the works that will be posted in December, and with some luck maybe a couple of others, and while I’m on my hiatus I will probably work on the requests in my inbox, and depending on how I feel in January…I will either open requests again, or I’ll only be a lurker here that quietly supports my friends.
Thank you guys so much!

making my peace with how lyra was characterised in the show vs the books because so much of it relies on her age and even dafne keen being only one year older than lyra when filming set her up to portray a different character from the very beginning. it doesn't seem like a huge difference but lyra being a child and not a teenager is of fundamental importance to her path in the books so it's inevitable that she was written more like a teenager in the show (and you can't stop child actors from ageing, you can only adapt the writing and directing to match how they mature). the show wrote lyra's arc in accordance with her maturing to the age of around 16, so they chose to have her grow out of her habit of lying and instead wield the power of truth to further her on her journey. it was a different journey from the books, but it got her to the same place: saving her friend and countless others with the power of storytelling and a silvertongue

Pokémon Timeskip Series: Champion Dawn 🌸❄️
Known as Sinnoh’s Ice Queen, Dawn is best known for her intimidating yet caring nature. She’s fierce and calculating, never leaving any room for error especially when it comes to battling. On her off days you can find her in the contest hall, a hobby she picked up from her mother, or in the Battle Frontier/Pokémon Lab to catch up with her best friends. It is said she was recently engaged to a certain johto boy (Ethan. It’s Ethan.) however they will not publicly revealed their plans for the wedding as of yet
Made a timeskip adult champion Dawn design a while back! It’s still my favorite of my timeskip series hehehe I hope you enjoy!

aside from my rice here’s a doodle dump of my timeskip johto kiddos all scribbled during classes! forgot to upload this some time ago but it's a mix of silly doodles, profile studies and outfit ideations 📝
#kagoodles#pokemon gsc#pokemon hgss#rival silver#trainer kris#trainer ethan#trainer lyra#tag wall incoming guys waHA#practicing with profiles is fun but keeping consistency at various angles? hoogh#alright time for more rambling abt these guys (specifically lyra and ethan) for a bit :D#I wanted lyra's champion dress to have a bit more inspo from filipiniana dresses but also retain parts from her sygna suit in pmex!#celebi inspired to honor her role as ilex's shrine protector when her grandparents pass that torch to her#not sure of a specific battle gimmick but it would involve hp recovery and defense/sp def buffing with a mix of lessening critical hits#and then she hits ya with the steel chair equivalent azumarill backed with huge power + belly drum!!!!!!!!! sweep em girl!!!!!!!!!!#silver and lyra would be the last guys you'd face for double battles at the battle tower but Watch Out#what else what else uhhh ETHAN#ethan's revolves around the pokeathlon so he's a bit more showy in competition compared to when he does photography work#he can jump between being a popular pokeathlete to intensely focused on taking wildlife pictures with like. several 'mons surrounding him#very dedicated to his research and study; his friends would find him in crazy phototaking positions just to take a pic of a heracross#i think it'd be funny that ethan and kris are rivals at the pokeathlon they would have some beef (they'd tally wins against each other)#I haven’t forgotten abt everyone else tho I have so much on the mind I wanna draw#maybe I’ll finish some of these doodles for when I feel like working on my neocities but website building is a whole beast in and of itself#but I’ll persevere if the results come out decent >:]

Until TGG comes out with a reason for why Ave and the gang chose Hawthorne island for the location (y'know the same island where a house exploded, two nepo babies died, all the blame was put on Hannah's sister, and it's the very thing that's been haunting Toby ever since)
I'm gonna start calling it, “Alisa Ortega's biggest PR nightmare”

LGBTQ+ HEADCANONS
Main six and more let's gooooo
Tumblr media
Twilight Sparkle
Asexual
Although homophobia and transphobia is rare in Equestria, asexuality it also not often talked about
Twilight struggles with romance in her late teen and early adult years.
She felt like there was something wrong with her, but couldn't pinpoint what it was. The idea of relationships was so strange to her, but romance seemed to appealing. She didn't get it.
One day she went to talk to Shining Armour about it
Shining is a beegg!! Ally!! But knew this was outside of his area of expertise, so asked Cadence about it
Cadence went to Twilight and they talked about it for hours. She explained it all to Twi and made her feel so loved, normal, and beautiful.
After that, the pressure of relationships went away, and she wouldn't focus on it for another few years. Putting her studdies first, and later putting her friendships first.
Rainbow Dash
A big gay is what she is
Lesbian
Uses She/He/They
Gender? I hardly know her
Gender? Take her out to dinner first
Okay I'll stop
Applejack
Another big gay
Experimented with gender but just prefers she/her
Not really confortable with labels
Pinkie Pie
Pan
She's literally pan colours what else did you expect
Uses she/they
Fluttershy
Trans
Wears tail extensions (canon)
When she was a filly, she couldn't figure out why she felt so bad about herself all the time
Rainbow Dash helped her big time, gently pushing her to explore her gender
Transitioning in Equestria is pretty easy, blablabla something with magic n stuff
Rarity
Your honour, she is bi
CANON and you can't tell me otherwise, she WILL flirt with anyone
Bit of a disaster bi
Demisexual and very confident about it
Hopeless romantic
Loves to dable in romance but ultimately loves being independent above anything else
Never really stays in long term relationships
Often the one to break up
But she does it with such grace and elegance?? Most of her ex-partners stay friends with her. People dont know how she does it
Bonbon and Lyra
Your honour, they are married
Lyra is lesbian
Bonbon is bi
Discord
Gender? I hardly kn-
Uses he/him because that's what people use and he rolls with hit but his species literally doesn't have a concept of gender
Fluttershysexual and Fluttershysexual ONLY
Cadence
Big pansexual
Anytime any media has any sort of princes of god/goddess of love I just can't see anything other than pansexual
You're telling me a PRINCESS of LOVE would only feel that love for 1 gender?
She is very confident in her identity, even though she never necessary got to experiment and explore with it since shining armour was her first big crush, and they have been together ever since
Is extremely educated about LGBTQ+ Identities and matters
Maybe I'll talk about some more later on^^

Hihi! It's been a bit since I've done one of these, running an interest check for merch in the shop for this year!
If you'd be interested in a restock for sold out items in the shop, would like to leave feedback about my works, or have any notes for me, feel free to fill this out, thank you!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Here's also some totally, absolutely not, no way, impossibly unrelated works in progress for potential shop items! (Also nothing new/previews for new merch ideas for Professor Layton or Dungeon Meshi here yet, but I would like to make something for those series so that's also a listed option for those interested).

✨GAMES UNTOLD THEORY✨
Alright so I have a theory about what the last chapter “Pain At The Right Gun” of Games Untold is about.
First of all, I’ve heard some people think that it may contain a short story about Lyra because there is a Calla Lilly on the front cover of the book and that the story might be about her father. However I don’t really think this is going to be the case because I think this is going to be the last book that focuses more on the Hawthorne family.
Furthermore, if you you were to anagram “Pain At The Right Gun” you would see that it can be rearranged to make “That Night In Prague.” Which makes me think that we might get Jameson’s pov about what happened when he met his grandmother Alice.
Why I think this is because in the few chapters of “That Night In Prague” we only seem to have Avery’s pov, which I think is a little odd since I feel like the major event that took place in Prague was Jameson meeting Alice. Although, we did only got like six chapters of “That Night In Prague” so I may be wrong there might be Jamesons pov in that story as well.
What I think might be in the “Pain At The Right Gun”story is Jameson’s pov about whatever game he solved that lead to him finding his grandmother who warns him not to say a word about her being alive. In that time I feel like she will shed some light or drop a hint about Lyra, her father’s death, or what significance Calla Lilly’s hold. I feel like this would be a perfect mysterious cliffhanger for the book to end on, which will then hopefully be resolved in Glorious Rivals.
I really don’t know if I’m right about this or if this makes any sense whatsoever p.s. I wrote this at like 4:00am. Anyway I just wanted to ramble about this theory and see what other people think. Also if you have any other theory’s let me know in the comments, I’m very interested.

what really gets me about the phrase "tell them stories" is that what humanised the harpies were childhood memories, of the days lyra and roger spent together inside an oxford college and on top of its roof. it wasn't anything grand and extraordinary (the word lyra's parents kept insisting on her) but just the happiness of being with an old friend. lyra's journey to the land of the dead was rather extraordinary, but only the simplest of stories brought her home. i think there's an important message there that while you can choose to live a life full of danger and adventure, the most mundane moments such as your friend baking you a birthday cake or a time where you stayed out in the sun until you burnt can create a life worth telling stories about... only emphasised by the serpent sharing the simple memory of falling in love

Hi lovely, so... Any thoughts on the finale? 😭 On everything but especially on what Aemond's scenes mean for him? I honestly think all his actions were because he was absolutely desperate and afraid, because his scene with Helaena on the balcony? :') it hurt to see just how much he was hurting, he just looked so alone and afraid idk, he was literally crying.
- Lyra
to preface this lmao — morale is low right now girly, i won’t lie. i may come back and edit this some tomorrow when i am less pissed off and emotional, who knows.
anyway.
i do genuinely think that him being desperate and quite frankly scared and freaking out does fit with him as a character, so i agree with you. i think the man is at his wits end for like a thousand different reasons.
aren’t we all.
i do like that ewan made the choice to cry in that last scene with helaena, i do think that added depth. although, to what end, i’m not sure anymore, to be frank.
i’m sure aemond feels quite panicked. he has vhagar yes and tessarion to at least some degree, and i suppose dreamfyre is at least present? but sunfyre is out of comission, as is the only other skilled rider the greens have. so he and daeron are effectively it and now rhaenyra has three new dragons and three new dragonriders.
i’m sure he’s shitting bricks tbqh.
i think, i hope, that deep down he does sincerely care about his family. if we’re basing it off the books, then he definitely does. show aemond though i think, at this point, is trying his best to protect his wounded pride. and then helaena tells him it doesn’t matter and he’s gonna die anyway. so.
idk man. on the whole, i’m just upset and disappointed. i am very sympathetic toward aemond because i realize that his life, along with his sibling’s, has been quite shit. he got dealt a hard hand. i’m scared about season 3.

His Dark Materials and the Divine Mechanical
The divine mechanical. A concept the lonely gays (/aff) on tumblr are quite familiar with. That angels are uncorruptable beings with wires for veins and binary for speech. Something so foreign to our vulnerable flesh, yet compatible with the very comupters we created. (I have included some of the most iconic photos/posts of this concept for reference.) It's a truely bizarre little pocket of internet culture and I love it.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(Yes one of those images may be a screenshot of a tumblr post uploaded to tiktok and then screenshot again and put onto pinterest which is where I found it, ik ik behead me if you must /nsrs /silly)
ANYWAY Another bizarre little pocket of the internet that I'm equally in love with is, the His Dark Materials fandom (hi guys <3). And in the wee hours of the morning, my big brain made a rather thrilling connection.
The Cave!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
It is quite possible one of the best (and only) depictions of the divine mechanical in popular media. A machine in our world's Oxford's Dark Matter Research Unit. Compared to Lyra's world with talking animals and witches, our world is of pure science. And yet Lyra immediately realises that the dark matter Mary is researching is, in fact, Dust. The very same magic particles that’s have spurred this whole story, but instead of fanaticising about it to a religeous degree like those in Lyra's world, our world has rationalised it as just another type of matter. And in both worlds this makes sense. Dust is both magic and science. Divine and mechanical.
And the Cave talks with Dust. It uses code and numbers and wires and circutboards and electricity to ultimately communicate with the angels themselves. The angels, which are beings of pure Dust.
Tumblr media
Also just look at the thing! A giant hulking machine of wires and pristine tubing, all kept suspended behind glass. As if to stand in front of it is to worship it.
Tumblr media
That’s all :)
(thank you for coming to my ted talk)
