askeladd and thorfinn have this kind of dynamic where one day askeladd decides that thorfinn is ready to make certain experiences and when they stop in some port he puts an arm around thorfinn's shoulder and goes "ahh thorfinn look around, this town has the prettiest girls in the whole country" and then hands him some money like "go buy yourself something nice" *wink* and as thorfinn scurries off askeladd pats himself on the back for a parenting job well done. when thorfinn returns HOURS LATER askeladd smirks at him; "so you found something sharp?" and next thing he knows thorfinn LAUNCHES a new dagger at him which just misses his head by a mere inch or so and hits the mast. askeladd watches the after vibrations of the throw in horror and thorfinn smirks back; "you tell me old fuck."

So...daggers.

This one couldn't cut a Silmaril out of Morgoth's crown, but it's super pretty !

Hmmm, so the Númenorians would have invented self-heating butter knives/ blades ?

Look, if we consider all the gifts the Valar and Elves have given them, and also that a self-heating blade is surely a very Fëanorian thing to invent, it might be less crazy than it sounds.

Also maybe their swords just run righteously warm ?

Treating shitposting very seriously as usual.

My fiancee and I were discussing the worst metal to use to make armor, and the obvious answers are lead and gold, but she cunningly suggested mercury. Which is a fair point, but then I wondered if solid mercury is any good. Googling told me that the melting point of mercury is -38° c (-37° f), so first you get it really fucking cold. At that point, it turns out that mercury has a tensile strength of 1900 mpa, compared to lead’s 18 and steel’s ~500-940 (depending upon the kind of steel).

Now, I know that tensile strength is not necessarily the best measure of a material’s ability to function as armor, but I’m a liberal arts major and didn’t care to actually do that much more research before going straight to, “EVIL ICE DEMONS IN MERCURY ARMOR. THE PCS CAN’T LOOT IT BECAUSE WHEN THEY PUT IT ON IT MELTS AND KILLS THEM.”

crowley used the metal tool in season 1 to start time, and we learn that he's used it first to start space. to create the stars -- he still remembers how. he still remembers all of heaven's passwords: in the book crowley is described as an optimist because he has the "utter surety... that the universe would look after him". not god, but the universe. and of course he does: he helped create it and he's looking after it, too.

think about it: aziraphale had a sword, but crowley is about to face satan who wants to destroy the world, and crowley's only weapon is a tool of creation

When it becomes part of them (Timeline)

Attempting to replicate the shows storyboards.

Technically their mystics pop up sporadically in season 1, until Leo in showdown. Then the others in season 2. Once they do, its a matter of time to master it, with some bumps in the road ofc.

Look at the little anime protagonists

And then the ending of season 2 comes along-

Edited with more 2003 markings 👆 (might keep it)

By the beauty of the algorithm, this was the first post I got when I opened Tumblr.

Kastenbrust give me Maglor vibes, Winged Hussar a very unpractical Tuor, and July Big Boy HAS TO BE Salgant.

Well, I was pondering this and then I saw your tag, and yes, of course, it MUST be Fingolfin.

Because :

a. he is heroic, and he did indeed wield his sword with valor ;

b. having that inscription etched on his sword would be SUCH A DIG at Fëanor ! Who, you know, very famously and publicly took out a sword to without reason (from Fingolfin's point) threaten his brother, and made a fool of himself in the process.

Imagine if he had the inscription etched after Fëanor abandoned him by taking the ships, on a sword that Fëanor himself made for him...

“Do not unsheath me without reason. Do not wield me without valor.”

Kroos, first piece for the Food Drive!

She won't sleep on the job! She's not sleeping, she's just relaxing

[anneapocalypse]

So, just curious how many writers and creators will have to be forcibly outed by relentless harassment before we acknowledge that "This queer characters was written by a cishet person and that's why they're bad" is not good criticism.

DPxDC #13

Sam is at a gala in Gotham, bored out of her mind. She’s snuck away from the main area. Hiding out in an alcove she’s complaining to Tuck and Danny through her earpiece. They start taking about the latest weapon Danny’s making for her. She’s getting a scythe that can be concealed as a charm on her bracelet.

(This kind of bracelet but instead of mundane charms it’s like one of those pocket multi-tools but in bracelet form that can resize each charm)

Damian also sneaks away from the gala and to the same alcove, Sam is hiding in. When he hears what's being said, he hides in the shadows.

Sam senses someone near her but doesn't even stop her conversation and continues talking about the design of her scythe. Whoever it is, she wants to freak them out.

Sam: So Danny, my scythe has to be like this:

(The scythe from RUBY, I am not about to describe this sorry, switch the red to black and the black to deep purple)

Sam: Mostly black with purple accents.

Damian: *internally* A weapon of that caliber, I have to learn everything.

Sam: My new charm will be so sweet.

Damian: *internally* Tt just a charm.

Sam: *continuing* My rents won't even know it's another weapon and not just a new charm. Ghosts won't know what hit them. No one knows I'm armed to the teeth they just see a gothic charm bracelet. Your tech is the best.

Sam is fiddling with her bracelet and pulls off a knife charm. It resizes into a small pocket knife she uses to pick her nails. Damian zeros in on it. Damian impulsively steps into the alcove.

Damian: you have weapons that resize? I would like to purchase them.

Sam clocks all his hidden weapons.

Sam: Hmm yeah alright kid. All your weapons are easy to spot. Good for a beginner but having them in plain sight fools everyone.
