michelle things

moves to Maryland (from France) in 2005 for her father’s work purposes

she eventually attends Clarion Ladies Academy with her step-sister

is definitely not a fighter; will not choose violence as much as possible. she is a great healer tho! prefers to stay in the medic tent

that being said, she does not get squemish with blood and gore. she will walk through a bloody battlefield to pick a wounded person up and drag their ass to medic tent/area to be healed

does a year of med school before dropping out to start her bakery. she is very proud of herself for that decision; it was one of those times when she “chose her happiness” or did something purely for herself. she’s very happy about it…after she got over the guilt of not doing what her dad wanted her to do (think rapunzel when she first left her tower)

i feel like she called up johnny one time when she was feeling it and johnny was like “but you’re doing something you’re happy about/love and that’s good and it’s gonna turn out great bc the food you make tastes so good….” and michelle felt better

if she stayed in med school, she would have become a trauma surgeon

her type is buff women. that’s it

at camp, she wears her hair in a lot of hairstyles (ponytail, braids, etc.). most of it are updos which involve sometimes intricate braids

she stress cooks/bakes

loves horror and thriller movies. her favorites are the psychological or cult-y or supernatural ones. gory movies like saw don’t really do much for her; she’s okay with them

#i love her and would love to do more with her #michelle belcourt

three short things

some short things i wrote featuring some demigods. my only rule was that it should start and finish with someone saying a thing~

“Michelle, Michelle! Look! I got a new tattoo! Wanna see?” Johnny, not even waiting for a reply, pulls his shirt halfway up to show the brand new tattoo on his back. Michelle plops one more strawberry into her basket before admiring it. “It looks cool, right!”

“Oh wow!” Michelle’s eyes widen. “It looks painful!”

“But, it wasn’t. It was fine!”

“Still! You have to deal with needles and things.” She squints for bit. “Oh no.”

“Oh no?”

“Johnny, I’m so sorry but...but,” Her voice wavers. “I-I think it’s misspelled. I’msosorryforpointingitoutpleasedon’tbehurt.”

“What? Really?” Johnny cranes his head, trying to see the tattoo. He tries a couple of more times after failing...and he does not look like he would stop trying.

“Oh no, please don’t do that. There’s a mirror in my cabin. I’ll show you.”

“No, it’s fine!” Johnny pulls his shirt down and beams up at her. “It’s okay. It still looks pretty cool!”

“It does, actually.”

----------

“So, can you...drink this entire bottle of vodka?”

Rodrigue takes a step back when he sees the glare Sofia gives him. He hugs the bottle of vodka close to his chest. Sofia is still glaring at him.

“What kind of stupid question is that?”

“It’s not stupid. It’s valid.”

“Is it because I’m Russian?”

Rodrigue takes another step back. “Y-yes…?”

“That is a stereotype.” She is still glaring at him.

“Okay, whatever. So...can you...do it??”

Sofia pauses for a second then grabs the bottle and twists it open. “Of course, I can. I’m Russian.”

----------

“Just one more episode, babe.” “That’s what you said 45 minutes ago!”

Ava wraps her arms around Jasper and pouts at him. But all she gets is a quick kiss on her forehead.

“It just got interesting! I promise; just one more episode.”

She groans as she sits up and pushes the blankets off the both of them. Unfortunately, Jasper still does not budge. “I wanna do something else.”

“Okay,” he says without looking at her. “What do you want to do?”

Ava pouts at him again but she grins at an idea. Her hand slides down his torso, a bit lower, under the waistband of his pants. Finally, Jasper sets his phone down. Ava smiles sweetly back at him.

Jasper’s mouth quirks at the corners as he puts his phone away. “Yeah, we could do that.”

#my writing #johnny hayes #michelle belcourt #rodrigue roux #sofia ilyenkova #ava torres #jasper salvador #i apologize for the kind of insinuating vibe in the last one???#when u have dialogue ideas but no motivation to write full blown fics #there's another one that i wanted to add but i didnt have the motivation to finish it :(((#otp: java #otp: rodrigue x sofia

Artist Feature: MJ Belcourt

MJ Belcourt is the City of Edmonton's current Indigenous Artist-in-Residence, a partnership between the Edmonton Arts Council and the City of Edmonton’s Indigenous Relations Office. Her show "Feeding My Spirit" has been turned into an online exhibit which you can view here.

MJ will also be doing a Q&A session online at 12pm today with EPL, which you can view here. We are honoured to share her words about her time in residence and a few photos of her work (photos by Brad Crowfoot).

Photo: MJ Belcourt, the City of Edmonton’s current Indigenous Artist-in-Residence, photo supplied.

“My name is Melissa-Jo Belcourt, known as MJ, my mixed Métis heritage is Mohawk, Cree and French.

My family’s ties are to the Michel Band and the Lac St Anne Métis community. This land, this territory is my home. I was born here Amiskwaciy-wâskahikan / ᐊᒥᐢᑲᐧᒋᐋᐧᐢᑲᐦᐃᑲᐣ (Edmonton), but we moved frequently, keeping within the boundaries of Alberta.

I always knew I was Métis, just felt like there was more to know about my bloodline, so in my 20’s my creative journey began.

I believe we are drawn to something through our blood memory which is the genetic connection to the teachings of our ancestors. It’s the idea that we carry ancient memories in our DNA, so naturally I was drawn to traditional arts of my ancestors.

In 1989/90 I was introduced to a program that offered everything I needed to get started in learning the art of the Nehiyawak. I learned to appreciate and honor the natural laws of this land. And through the teachings, I gained the appreciation that art is spirit, because as we are born in the creators’ image, we too are creators and as an elder once told me, “we are all walking pieces of art” ... an honor indeed.

I met my mentor and teacher, late Elsie Quintal of Square Lake, from northern AB. I spent each fall at her home for four years learning the art of tanning hides the old Cree way. This truly is where my gratitude and respect for traditional art forms stem from.

To me, hide tanning is the authentic foundation that holds all other natural art forms. Such as porcupine quill work, moose hair embroidery, caribou hair tufting, fish scale art, and bead work. These art forms adorn bags, moccasins, dresses, shirts, leggings, and much more.

Clockwise, left-right: âhpin (rawhide) bag 1, 2018; mispon, (It is snowing) 2018; Haudenosaunee Roots, 2015; osâwi-mîkis, (yellow bead) 2019. Photo by Brad Crowfoot.

We become educators through our art, because every piece communicates knowledge of our land, our language, our beliefs, our stories and ways of being. It’s been a privilege to learn and teach these traditional skills. By passing on the knowledge and teachings we mentor our youth to ensure this knowledge isn’t lost to antiquity.

Thankfully I had the opportunity to work at the Royal Alberta Museum for a number of years working in the education department delivering school programs to children. Being in the Indigenous gallery was a great inspiration, but more so was being able to visit the collections where our ancestors' works can be viewed and studied.

I gained such an appreciation for the work the curators do and for giving me opportunity to investigate. I was always being amazed by the intricate and beautiful workmanship of exquisite pieces in the collection being preserved for future generations. Hands that make are the hands that love.

An artist’s work can be very solitary and sometimes lonely, but it can also be a calming form of meditation and therapy.

As for most of us, we love what we do, and it is our passion that pushes us onward. And as ‘Art Creators’ and ‘Art Lovers’ we find in our humility the encouragement and support to keep doing what we love.

Often, we are motivated to create so we can sell our artwork to pay bills and we are very thankful to those who appreciate what we do by purchasing our work.

As the Indigenous Artist-in-Residence for the City of Edmonton, I am thankful for the opportunities such as this one and many others that have broadened my horizons in furthering my art experience. It’s been my pleasure.

And to every artist:

Keep creating. Keep telling your stories. Keep educating. Keep shining.

AiyHiy, MJ
