A late contribution to @glorfindelweek : Crochet Glorfindel 🌻🏵🌼

He's based on my Glorfindel design, and the crochet work was inspired and guided by CraftyTibbles' fabulous Elf Archer crochet pattern!

Another WIP Wednesday. I really liked this one but I might rework it a bit for a different idea I had (RIP all the effort I put into getting Corvo's coat right. It will never be forgotten)

[graedari]

Just some car doodles from last week

[radjerda]

Some portraits of some fancy elves from Gondolin

Ecthelion and Glorfindel deserved some more elaborate designs than my usual, and how can I draw one without the other?

Alexandria Hypatia and Aramis Stilton are best friends send tweet

Will I ever shut up about @radjerda's Tron Fights for the Users (Children) AU? Never. We already knew that. I'm also not done talking about Clu being the boys' begrudging older brother figure. And also bringing in the possible angst potential of Jet meeting Yori if Lora's accident still happened in this AU? (She obv lives through it though. No one's allowed to die in this AU. It's all for fun)

Jethro Eugene Bradley-Baines, I haven't played your game but I absolutely love you 💖

Hey kids... Maybe don't out that Flynn took you to the grid in front of Alan. Flynn might be dead now.

Tron Fights for the User(s' Children) AU is by @radjerda I am simply reveling in it forever and for all time.

Some Whalers I redrew the other day! I never really shared the original, or wrote down much about it, but I think these were my takes on Misha (left) and Thomas (right) at the time

And for comparison, the original drawing from (I believe) 2020:

Sam and Jet thought it would be great fun to make a tank-shaped rock pile. Innocent enough, Tron thought, so why not let them do it?

Oh, how wrong he was.

Turns out, two child users have just as much power as Flynn, and this absolutely includes giving function to a tank-shaped rock pile. Tron will be having words with Flynn later for being left to deal with this.

⛲ Welcome all! ⛲

I'm Radjerda (she/her, in my 20s) and I guess I just thought I might stick an intro post here for everyone to help keep my blog organized!

About Me: Like I said, I'm Radj, and I like to draw sometimes (I also crochet)! I've got an interest in a variety of media, but at the moment I'm very into Lord of the Rings and Tolkien's other related works. Also in my frequently recurring interests are likely to be: Half-Life, Dishonored, Tron, and others. Fun fact: I recently taught myself to write English with Tengwar out of boredom.

Important: Feel free to send me asks, messages, and whatnot on anything! I'm shy when it comes to starting interactions, but I always love to talk! (Responses may occasionally be slow, but don't take that to mean I'm ever bothered by interactions!)

Favorite Characters of the Day: Glorfindel & Ecthelion & Arwen Undomiel (Tolkien), Alan Bradley & Tron (Tron), Alyx Vance & Barney Calhoun (Half-Life), ARAMIS STILTON (Dishonored)

About the Blog: I like to post art (both my own art and others'!) and that's primarily what I use this blog for. This is a side blog, so most interactions from me that aren't reblogs will be from my main @portalthief. I post art from a bit of whatever I like, so be warned that this is a multifandom blog (though it likely will go through blocks of content as I do). I'll always tag posts with their fandom and other relevant details to make filtering content easy as needed, I'll write more on that below!

Other Places to Find Me: My main blog is @portalthief

Tags and How I Use Them (Under the Keep Reading):

A List of My Frequent Non-Fandom Tags and Their Explanations for All Your Blog-Searching and Content-Filtering Needs:

#Radj Draws -- my general art tag, used for all art.

#Radj Doodles -- used for my less-finished art pieces, silly doodles and the like

#Radj Screenshots -- used for my gaming screenshots, usually done like in-game photography, but sometimes sillier

#Radj Rambles -- used for posts where I do a lot of talking (like this one!), as well as my answers to asks and the like

#of those demons of power ecthelion queue three -- my queue tag, used for things I stuck in my queue! Original quote is from The Fall of Gondolin and reads "of those demons of power Ecthelion slew three," I think I'm funny

#not my art -- this is fairly self-explanatory, this tag is for art I haven't done myself

#not radjs art -- my own specific tag for reblogged art pieces that aren't mine, this way posts from my blog alone can be filtered to just my art (or just others' art) if using tumblr's filtering settings

#art from my lovely gf -- used for art done by my lovely gf! She gets a dedicated tag just because 💞 (go look at her art @graedari)

red lawyers go brrr

[radjerda]

...just hope your Whalers actually get powers from the Arcane Bond, that would be rather key here.

Tron’s Notes on User Children: Never turn your back on a child, they will find something to get into the very moment you look away. Sensors may indicate their safety and presence nearby, just out of sight—this means nothing.

A piece in same series as my last drawing: Tron’s adventures watching Sam and Jet! The kids aren’t allowed to have discs yet, so Tron offered to show Jet how his worked. His first mistake, however, was turning his back on Sam.

(Seeing as I might do more of these, I think I’m gonna dub this series as “Tron Fights for the User(s’ children) AU” in my tags for clarity’s sake)

Some screenshots from one of my favorite levels in Dishonored 2: A Crack in the Slab! I may be a little biased though, since Aramis Stilton has quite quickly become a favorite character of mine.

[radjerda]

Please don't make fun of me (because I am your girlfriend) but I can't remember their name for sure, but I want to send an ask, the character thingy- you wanna do the empress from Dishonored?

I would love to talk about the empress from Dishonored, one Jessamine Kaldwin (and of course I wouldn’t make fun of you!) Thank you so much for the ask, love!

First Impression: I knew absolutely nothing about Jessamine going into the game, but I was immediately attached. I loved seeing her interactions with Corvo and Emily, it was obvious she genuinely loved them both. Jess’s death really is such a good driving factor for the rest of the actions in the game too--Corvo needed to set things right not only for Emily, but for her too.

Impression Now: This one hasn’t changed a lot, I still love her character. We don’t get to learn a lot about her compared to some others, but you can tell she really loved her family and she seemed to genuinely care for her people as the empress. It makes me a little sad too how Corvo and Emily had to go on without her, and then one or the other had to say goodbye yet again (after only just getting to sorta have her presence in their life) through the Heart.

Favorite Moment: While its a sad moment too, I think my favorite might be how Jess fights back when Daud comes after her. If I recall correctly, she just slaps him and/or shoves him away, I just think it was a really neat aspect of her character that she was able to do that rather than trying to run or just watching it all go down. It’s also a favorite since I think it shows how she’s so protective of Emily, trying to save her daughter at all costs.

Idea for a Story: Uh, story idea... I have lots of thoughts about Dishonored characters, but not blanking and losing all coherent thought when I need a story idea is an interesting challenge. Anyways. I’d love to see something about Jessamine and Corvo a few years after Emily was born. Just them getting a private evening to themselves where they can be a happy family without worrying. They play games and read stories with Emily and just get to be happy together. Either that, or they all get an actual free day together. I could definitely see them playing with Emily in the tower gardens, or having a tea party, and then later sitting down and drawing together. Corvo teaches a tiny Emily to climb some smaller obstacles with his help. Jess pretends to disapprove and scold them for doing so, but is honestly just happy to watch the two bond. (She would probably regret that later, however, when Emily gets a bit too good at hiding rather than attending her lessons.) I’d just like to see them be a happy family.

Unpopular Opinion: I’m bad at this unpopular opinion question... I’m sure it’s not that I don’t have any unpopular opinions, but rather, I just can’t think of anything I know to be unpopular right off hand?

Favorite Relationship: I think I’m gonna have to say CorvoJess here. Corvo and Jessamine so clearly love one another. And I love that they made their relationship work because it made them happy, they didn’t let any obstacles get in the way. Said relationship being between the empress and her bodyguard, something I imagine the nobility wouldn’t readily approve of, makes for a very interesting element as well. Though I do wish, for them, that they had been given the change to genuinely, openly, be a happy family.

Favorite Headcanon: Jessamine could always make time for Emily, no matter how busy she was. As empress, she couldn’t always just drop everything, but at the end of each day, Jess would make a point to spend time with Emily. She’d ask about Emily’s day and if she had drawn anything, always listening intently. Most of the hours spent together that way were lighthearted, but they had serious conversations too. Jess would give Emily life lessons, particularly about how to address hard decisions she might have to make in the future. Jessamine did her best to make sure Emily had a relatively normal childhood while still preparing her for the responsibilities she’d one day face.
