The Masquerade is almost here! Thank you @saturnnutcracker for helping me with this lovely image!

You all have 20 days to send your part for the orginally planned deadline. With that said, I wanted to check if you are okay with that date, or if I should moved it to December 20th,so you have 10 extra days

Can´t wait to see what you all make!

NEW NUTCRACKER OC JUST DROPPED!!!

His name is Jack! i love him :DDD Also he can glow :DDD Funky Reindeer boy for the holidays ehehe He'd probably relate to Koda a lot. Description: ------

The Noble-hearted Hero

Jack may not have been active for very long, but he aims to do his best to better the world around him by helping as many as he can. Unaware of the fate of his species, he has taken great lengths to discover why he was created and who he is meant to truly be.

He tends to be a bit blunt and also quite oblivious to the true intentions of those around him- good or bad. He is very awkward at times due to this. He also isn't quite hip to how figures of speech work either. what do you mean a shrimp fried this rice??

He may be a hard worker and loves to keep himself busy- but often tends to overexert himself to the point of exhaustion. don't be surprised if you see him sleeping in odd positions or even sleeping standing up from time to time.. the boy needs his rest. Even though he's a bit silly at times with his unusual demeanor- if you befriend him he's loyal to a fault and will diligently protect and defend those he cares about.

[ariflorarts]

Nutcracker season once more! I had to do these two for @artsynoova 2024 nutcracker season masquerade ball!

Had so much fun revisiting my neglected babies, I needed to see them again

Clara always having a problem dressing up and not feeling self conscious, Hans is used to social events but I think he enjoys this one because he’s with her.

Your honour, let them kiss. quick surprise smooches fluster Riddley, but gallant princely kisses fluster Kronya also, there is indeed a height difference, and so Kronya has to tiptoe on Riddley at times to reach

The Top Female Vaganova Graduates of the Past Ten Years: Then and Now (Part I)

2015 - Renata Shakirova (Mariinsky Principal)

This was actually a tough one since 2015 was such an amazing year for graduates, especially considering that both the ninth year and eighth years graduated together. But in the end, Shakirova just seemed to me the most professional and technically strong in 2015! A star then and now!

Role I'd love to see her début: The Sylph

Special Mentions: Anastasia Lukina, Nika Tsvikhtaria, Elena Solomyanko

2015 (Laurencia at Graduation):

2024 (Dulcinea Variation in Don Quixote) :

2016 - Alyona Kovalyova (Bolshoi Principal)

This one was a no-brainer. While Maria Ilyushkina is a rising star now, her technique and strength in her Vaganova days were still developing while Kovalyova was the clear featured star graduate. After being rejected from Mariinsky for being too tall, she was offered a contract with the Bolshoi and quickly rose through the ranks, including spending only one year in the corps de ballet!

Role I'd love to see her début: Anna Karenina

Special Mentions: Maria Ilyushkina, Laura Fernandez-Gromova

2016 (Raymonda in Grand Pas shortly after graduating):

2024 (Nikiya in La Bayadère):

2017 - Eleonora Sevenard (Bolshoi Principal):

Another obvious choice, Sevenard was the clear stand-out. She was accepted into both the Mariinsky and the Bolshoi, before choosing the Bolshoi! She spent two years in the corps but was given soloist and principal opportunities right off the bat, including debuting as Masha in the Nutcracker in her first season. She was promoted to principal in 2023!

Role I'd love to see her début: Aurora

Special Mentions: Vlada Borodulina

2017 (Fairy Doll during graduate year):

2024 (Kitri in Don Quixote):

2018 - Maria Khoreva (Mariinsky First Soloist)

2018 was another year like 2015 with tons of amazing graduates. However, the graduate who garnered the most attention before and after graduation and who finished at the top of the class is Maria Khoreva. At only eighteen her technique was shockingly close to flawless and only two months into her first season she was promoted to first soloist! Khoreva has not be dancing for most of the past two seasons due to injury, but she is finally returning to the Mariinsky stage at the start of this season!

Role I'd love to see her début: Parasha (Bronze Horseman)

Special mentions: Maria Bulanova, Anastasia Nuikina, Daria Ionova, Anastasia Petushkova, Biborka Lendvai, Anita Voroshilova

2018 (Paquita shortly after her graduation):

2023 (Odile in Swan Lake last year):

2019 - Alexandra Khiteyeva (Mariinsky First Soloist)

Alexandra Khiteyeva was by far the strongest graduate of 2019. She had been featured in Vaganova graduation performances since her sixth year. After joining the Mariinsky, her initial progress was slowed due to COVID, but after four years in the Corps she was promoted, first to Second Soloist and just recently to First Soloist!

Role I'd love to see her début: Juliet

Special mentions: Svetlana Savelieva, Yulia Spiridonova

2019 (Paquita at graduation):

2023 (Cristina in Paquita):

December 2024 Reading Wrap Up

This is it folks! Last wrap up of the year! I read 8 books in December and had 1 dnf. I was able to complete the two series I wanted to before the end of the year, and finished my on-going goals.

1.Seer of Sevenwaters by Juliet Mariller, 4/5 stars. This is the 5th book in the series, and a solid installment. Not my favorite of the series, but not bad. I just didn't love it as much as the other books, and things felt very slow at times.

2.Conrad's Fate (Chrestomanci 5) by Diana Wynne Jones, 4/5 stars. I enjoyed this one more than the previous two I read, and really liked being with Christopher and Millie again on a new adventure.

3.The Pinhoe Egg (Chrestomanci 6) by Diana Wynne Jones, 3.5/5 stars. I finished this series-yay! This was a fun installment, and it was nice to catch up with Cat. I'm glad I was able to read some new DJW this year.

4.The Bright Ages: A New History of Medieval Europe by Matthew Gabriele. My nonfiction book for the month, and one of my Random TBR picks. I thought this was a good overview of the middle ages, debunking the "dark ages" stereotype around this time period.

5.Midnight In Everwood by Maria Kuzinar, 2/5 stars. This was my other Random TBR pick for the month. I was actually very happy I got this, as it is a christmas-y book and nutcracker retelling. I love the nutcracker fairy tale, so I was interested in this retelling, but this book was so bad. The writing was bad, the plot was bad, the ending was bad 😂

6. Flame of Sevenwaters (Sevenwaters 6) by Juliet Marillier, 4.5/5 stars. This was a good conclusion to this series and the second story arc. I liked Maeve a lot as a character and her journey. This one reminded me a bit of Heir to Sevenwaters. The romance in this book was the only thing that was a little weird to me.

7.The Fur Person by May Sarton, 5/5 stars. This is a novella from the perspective of Sarton's cat. It's one of the best representations of a cat's pov in my opinion, and follows Tom Jones as he goes from being a 'Cat About Town' to a housecat. It was a lovely little read.

8. A Sand County Almanac by Aldo Leopold, 4/5 stars. This is a collection of essays about land conservation from Leopold's farm in Wisconsin. This is a foundational piece of nature writing that I wanted to read.

DNF: At the beginning of December I picked up The Virgin in the Garden by AS Byatt, as I've been wanting to read more Byatt books. I read about 20%, but I could just not get into it. Maybe one day I'll pick it back up.

Audio 🎧 from Instagram 9 September 2024

EXCLUSIVE: Apple and Skydance‘s youth empowerment tale Way of the Warrior Kid, based on the 2017 novel by Jocko Willink, has tapped 14-year-old Belfast breakout Jude Hill for its lead role, also bringing on three-time Emmy nominee Linda Cardellini (Dead to Me) for a role.

Hill plays Marc, a self-doubting boy who gets bullied and is hard-pressed to complete a single pull-up, with Cardellini as Marc’s mother, Sarah. As we were first to report, Chris Pratt also stars in the film directed by McG.

In Way of the Warrior Kid, Marc’s uncle, Jake (Pratt), an elite Navy SEAL, is injured on a mission and moves in with his sister for rehab. When he discovers his 13-year-old nephew is struggling academically, socially and physically, Jake takes on a new mission: using his SEAL Team training over three months of summer to help the youth find his inner warrior.

We were first to report on the package out of Cannes, as Pratt and McG came aboard, also sharing word of the $80M-$85M global deal Skydance locked in with Apple, where the company has a first-look deal. The film will be produced by Skydance’s David Ellison, Dana Goldberg and Don Granger, alongside McG and Mary Viola for Wonderland Sound, and Pratt for Indivisible Productions. Additional producers include Ben Everard for Everard Entertainment, and Willink. Will Staples (Without Remorse) adapted the screenplay.

Cardellini is coming off her starring role opposite Christina Applegate on Liz Feldman’s acclaimed dark comedy Dead to Me, which ran for three seasons, bringing her a pair of Emmy nominations, among other accolades. Also a producer on that series, she’s set to reteam with Feldman on No Good Deed, a new dark comedy from Feldman first announced in 2022, which also stars Ray Romano, Lisa Kudrow, and Luke Wilson. Soon, Cardellini will be seen starring opposite Ben Stiller in David Gordon Green’s comedy Nutcrackers, a project we first reported on, which is set to open this year’s Toronto Film Festival. She’s also the female lead opposite Vince Vaughn in Nonnas, Stephen Chbosky’s forthcoming comedy for Fifth Season and 1Community, which we announced.

Hill made his theatrical debut as Buddy, the young lead of Kenneth Branagh’s Academy-Award nominated and BAFTA winning Belfast — a coming-of-age drama examining a boy’s experience coming of age in late ’60s Northern Ireland amid the conflict known as The Troubles. For his performance opposite Judi Dench, Jamie Dornan, Ciaran Hinds, and Caitríona Balfe, he earned numerous awards, including Best Young Actor at the Critics Choice Awards and Best Newcomer at the Hollywood Critics Association Awards. Reteaming with Branagh since then on his Agatha Christie adaptation A Haunting in Venice, Hill will next be seen starring opposite Nicole Kidman, Gael García Bernal and Matthew Macfadyen in Amazon MGM Studios’ thriller Holland, Michigan.

Other upcoming Apple Original Films produced by Skydance Media include genre-bender The Gorge starring Miles Teller and Anya Taylor-Joy; Guy Ritchie’s Fountain of Youth, starring Natalie Portman and John Krasinksi; and the action-adventure film pic May Day with Ryan Reynolds and Kenneth Branagh in the lead.

Cardellini is repped by CAA and Jackoway Austen Tyerman; Hill by Berwick & Kovacik, UTA, and Markham, Froggatt and Irwin.

Sneak peak for this years nutcracker month!

WIP Game!

I’ve been tagged in this a bunch and wanted to actually post before the new year, but lmao to think I would actually reach that goal.

Rules: Make a new post with the names of all the files in your WIP folder, regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous. Tag as many people as you have WIPs. People send you an ask with the title that most intrigues them, then post a little snippet or tell them something about it!

LoZ:

Zelink Ashes - longfic - y’all know what this one is but I am happy to yap about it!

Gloom sickness - longfic. Post-totk, puppet Zelda horror

Light Dragon/Last Unicorn AU - longfic. Exactly what it sounds like but also this may go so off the rails it’s not an AU and becomes an original work

Zelda Sonia time - one-shot

Champion’s ballad fic idea - one shot

Kass - one shot

Recipe - one shot

Queenbosa letters - one shot

Adult timeline Zelda - one shot (for now but honestly this project is half formed so who honestly knows what it will turn into)

Nutcracker AU designs - inspired by a discord conversation, would be an art project instead of writing

FFVIII:

Small town witch - longfic (this is the Irvine vampire one fyi)

Dissolve* - longfic

Squall is Dead AU* - longfic

Knighting - one shot. Was supposed to be for @ffviiibingo but despite making progress on it the last couple of months of 2024 kicked my ass so sadly it’s still a WIP

Ellone TC - one shot

(*Putting these on here even though both of these projects are all but abandoned, in the hope that maybe if I still consider them WIPs I might one day have the motivation to go back and work on them again)

Original Writing

Ghost Story - novel. Set largely in Northern California and based on actual ghost stories told to me by my parents

Second Face - novel. First draft of this is actually finished. One big metaphor for postpartum depression.

Skysilver - short story

Survivors - short story

Since SO MANY of y’all have already done this, there is no way I can tag someone for every WIP and not have duplicates.

@angelosearch @suleikashideaway @aleheartilly @siobhann @irishais @msstarlight @fan-girls-r-us @raccoonfiend95 @aegon-targaryen @raurusthirdeye @mailrebel @hurricane105

If I didn’t tag you it’s because either you tagged me or I am pretty sure I have seen you post this game already or have seen you already tagged a bunch. If I did tag you and actually interacted with your post already, it’s because I have the attention span of a squirrel on caffeine
