#maybe this time it'll be different

[kaatrina]

the last 5 years or so have really developed me into a bit of a bitch. idk how to feel abt it bc at my core i have always been pathetically soft but people really are so disappointing in so many ways and it's taken almost 3 whole decades to realise it

Law novel sequel's title will be "Novel Law: The Hour of Kikoku" (Kikoku no Toki).

... or 'The Time of Kikoku', 'Hour' just sounded catchier.

It's going to be a multichaptered spinoff, the upcoming magazine doesn't conclude the story. Here's an update from the official website.

Seems it's the story behind Law acquiring his sword? Sakagami Shusei (Novel Law author) has shared some initial thoughts (the first tweet was before the title revelation).

Felt the last one 🤝

Once again, Oda's involvement is expected to be minimum. It's almost entirely written by Sakagami Shusei, like its prequel.

Let's hope we finally get to know the names of the other members of the Heart pirates!

Nishimura Kinu's sketch seems to hint at Law's interaction with Hakugan, maybe we'll get to know how he got recruited.

the brainworms got me unfortunately

in my head they're like vaguely rivals and lovers where asura is trying really hard to be serious and not let nika get to him and nika is devoting every fiber of focused energy he contains to getting to asura. they're married

new headdress I'm working on for my shop. Lambkin, the pet name varré gives us in elden ring, is such a cute word. The pink yarn is very light against the cream, it's hard to capture but it "blushes" in light, almost disappearing under certain angles and light! Accented with antique lace, and it'll have a gorgeous matching ribbon and bows.

I haven't posted any personal work in a while so here's something I'm taking time on for myself ^-^

Hey everybody, sorry to have been so quiet lately! Nothing too horrible going on, I assure you but between cleaning an entire house from top to bottom, starting overnight shifts early, setting up a biiiig snake vivarium and getting a new baby to love and care for, it didn't leave much time for writing but now things are settling down! Officially starting overnights tonight and not... you know, Tuesday, but things are as good as they are busy! Hoping to start somewhere tomorrow inbox-wise after a GOOD sleep now that the nerve-wracking part of installing a gigantic vivarium is done for now!

I'd been thinking i wanted to rewatch jessica jones for like maybe years at this point so i finally did on a whim and got through season 1. and like let alone the fact that it's extremely good tv, at a level of earnestness of which i miss, and amazingly of its own identity away from the greater mcu, i had totally forgotten how great david tennant's performance as kilgrave was. like he's one of the most evil and terrifying villains I've ever seen, they do not trivialize the crimes he's committed, don't excuse any of his behaviors, and are very blatant about making sure you know he is very evil... he is still an enjoyable character to watch. yes, plenty of that is the writing, but genuinely, knowing how David Tennant acts and being able to tell what is acting choices vs the writing/directing (both of which are amazing), i do not think there are many actors that could've put the level of charisma he was able to inject into the character. not only was kilgrave written perfectly, and directed very very well, his performance was just top notch. perfect for the part, no notes

[daretobeking]

do you think after isles tom adn jordan wound back up in s1 and wag, sonja, and tucker were nowhere to be found. do you think he looked up at the stars and told them that he won. team dianite was the last team standing. do you think it was more a quiet, desperate challenge than an exclamation of victory. because surely if the others heard it they'd come home to prove them wrong.

how long do you think he waited. staring at the sky as if it'd answer all his unasked questions. as if itd crack into a broken jagged grin and shimmer and spit out the people he wanted to see most in the world. or as if it'd eat him whole for daring to try and declare such a victory.

do you think he was hostile toward Alyssa and Jeriah. do you think he held some small vain hope that if they went back to ruxomar that then his friends would return home.

do you think he took to wearing something to remember his friends by. maybe little things he intended to give them but never got the chance to, maybe just something that reminded him of them. or maybe he started stealing what few of their belongings remained untouched after the alternates were there for so long. so if they did show up then they'd come looking for their shit and he'd see them again.

do you think he knows it's all in vain and its to cope but he does it anyway because he has to. if theyre gone then he doesnt know what hell do.
