#odette is smol

[dancerdiaries]

I've been thinking about the swan hierarchy in Swan Lake. For some reason it's just really funny to me that there's a pecking order (pun, lol) in this sad, sad lake.

Clearly Odette is the leader. Okay, I'll accept it, even though I don't know why these swan maidens would pick her in particular. And it's evident she was chosen, judging by how the swans always put her in the center of all their formations. Why, though?

And what about the big swans and the four little swans? They're clearly more important than the normal swans. What makes them so special? What's their story? All we know about them are some are big and some are smol and for some reason that makes them important.

I think most of the swans are the "middle children" of the bunch while the eldest and youngest get special treatment.

Do Bradley and Fe go on a honeymoon after their wedding?

Smol boi honeymoon. Like a week. And they don’t take Odette so they spend the entire honeymoon week missing her.

[the-snake-and-the-steel]

Because Myau is SMOL- She nods respectfully.

“Th-thank you-“

She glances at the door.

“I…I need to get home, apparently. B-bye.”

Aaaand OFF SHE GOES!

*Odette stands there, watching as she goes. There's a sad, defeated pain in their eyes as she disappears from their sight.*

[deerboy]

     The swan lets out a small giggle. She had half expected him to be too embarrassed to indulge her teasing nature. Many of the boys at Shade ( Vacuoan men in general ) were far too macho; too insecure with their masculinity that they couldn’t laugh at themselves once in a while.

     “I’d say it’s working out for you,” Odette pokes fun with a smile. With a toss of one her braids, she extends her hand out to him. If he wasn’t too tough to make light of his clumsiness, he wasn’t too tough to accept a helping hand. “You got my attention. Now, you wanna try that again or do you wanna just cut to the chase?”

[gaysonlyocean]

“I will fight for you.”

       there’s a certain finality to his tone that brings comfort to her, hands reaching out to gently rest against his arm. a gesture of appreciation and adoration both, really.  “  of that, i have no doubt.  ”  she knew he’d fight for her,  (  she can always rely on him  ——  )  that he’d do anything for her, go above and beyond for her. that’s just the kind of person he is  —  a burning embodiment of kindness and warmth, someone that she and everyone else around them could rely upon. he is a giver and protector through and through, and while she may not be a delicate flower that needs such protection often…from him, she will always accept it. a smile tugs at the corners of her lips,  (  filled with love and so much affection  ——  )  her grip on his arm tightening ever so slightly.

                             “  you know that i’ll fight for you too, don’t you?  ”

       royalty starters  |  accepting.

bp and i were looking at this card and wondering why the hell it lists sharena as the eldest princess of askr if alfonse is supposed to be older... which led to me wondering if there’s a second princess of askr... which led to a total loss of impulse control and a new muse oops. i still need to figure out a full-body outfit but here’s her hair and eyes at least :3c

so anyways, here’s princess odette of askr. she’s much younger than alfonse and sharena, being only 13 years old, and therefore not in the order of heroes-- she tried to follow them and join, though. multiple times. both alfonse and anna had to shut her down. she thinks the world of alfonse and sharena, and is really unhappy about the conflict within their family between dad and her brother as it means neither of the elder sibs are around often. 

while cheerful and sweet, she’s also a little spitfire and possesses a rebellious streak, going as far as to sneak out of askr castle to visit alfonse and sharena as often as she can-- because if she can’t join them on the battlefield, she’s definitely going to at least SEE them more often. while well-behaved in book 1, as the story continues on she grows more and more anxious to be of use to her siblings in some way as the stakes rise...

she’s an infantry healer-- and a dancer, currently impassioned by her lessons. while she wouldn’t dance as a healer, should she pick up a weapon she definitely would-- and would be a green tome unit.

I have been reading stucky fics for a couple years now, and 2020 gave me the opportunity to read even more. Plus, I got back on tumblr and got to see the many great things the fandom has to offer. So I want to celebrate some of my favorites of the year!

Over 8000 stucky fics were published on ao3 this year, so I am obviously leaving out some great fics (I still have literally hundreds on my to read list I just haven’t gotten to yet). But even if I didn’t get to read all of the fics, I read some great ones and want to share.

Hey, dudes, dudettes and dudles!

After much deliberation, this is my PERSONAL final cast of (non)Disney characters as the six wives of Henry the 8th (100% inspired solely by the musical)

A few days ago, I asked you guys here on tumblr for advice and opinions on who (non)Disney women would work as casting choices for SIX aka the six wives of Henry the 8th. I got a lot of thoughts and responses and have decided on which I personally prefer. It’s important to note that my choices are based mostly on two things;

1, the musical. I don’t know ANYTHING about the Tudors beyond what the musical tells us.

2, whether their footage or personalities would fit their solo songs, NOT whether they look like the original women nor the actresses portraying them in the musical.

For those interested, click on the keep reading tab to see why I chose these characters and who else was suggested by others :)

Catherine of Aragon

Chel: Too little footage of her in general.

Cinderella: Catherine of Aragon comes off as a very confident, strong-headed woman. I just don’t see that in Cinderella. Not that she’s a push-over, but she has very little footage of her looking tough, smug or angry.

Tiana: Too little human footage.

Tzipporah: Too little footage of her in general.

Anya: Honestly, Anya is a really good fit for Catherine of Aragon as well. The main reason I chose Jasmine is, probably, due to her having more suitable footage for the song “No way” than I think Anya does. But both would probably have worked, I just prefer Jasmine to Anya for this cast :)

Anne Boleyn

Chel: Too little footage of her in general.

Ariel: As much as I love Ariel, she has two major problems; She’s usually a mermaid and she doesn’t talk through most of the movie. I know some editors don’t care about, for example, Ariel’s floating hair during scenes where she’s supposed to be, well, NOT in water, but that has always bothered me. It ruins the illusion of her being a “normal” person and it puts me off of using her a lot.

Jane Seymour

No one. Odette immediately sprung to mind and people seemed to agree with me. She was the easiest choice by far because, not only does a lot of her footage match “Heart of Stone”, but her looks resemble the actress portraying Jane as well.

Anne of Cleves

Anastasia Tremaine: Anne is portrayed as tomboyish, confident and “not prim and proper”. Anastasia, on the other hand, is cute, clumsy and with big funny expressions. Her footage simply doesn’t fit the “Get down” song at all.

Holli Would: Holli would stand out too much next to the other women in my opinion. And despite her having the same cocky confidence as Anne, she’s most definitely NOT tomboyish.

Marina: Gotta be honest here... my main gripe is that the few times I’ve edited with Marina, I’ve hated masking her. Yeah, I don’t have a better reason than that, truthfully xD

Anya: Despite Anya having somewhat of the same personality, she isn’t really what I’d call a “tomboy”. Not in the footage at least. I don’t think she has as many suitable scenes as Pocahontas does.

Chel: Too little footage of her in general.

Catherine Howard

Ariel: As much as I love Ariel, she has two major problems; She’s usually a mermaid and she doesn’t talk through most of the movie. I know some editors don’t care about, for example, Ariel’s floating hair during scenes where she’s supposed to be, well, NOT in water, but that has always bothered me. It ruins the illusion of her being a “normal” person and it puts me off of using her a lot.

Belle: I thought Belle fit Parr more than Howard.

Cinderella: Honestly, Cinderella could probably have made a very suitable Howard. The main reason I chose Lina over Cindy is that Lina has more of a “naive” innocence to her than Cindy does, probably due to her being such a smol bean. She looks like she’d be more likely to consistently fall for the same shitty men over and over again.

Megara: Despite the musical kinda playing up the “sex kitten” part about her character, honestly, when I first heard the song (not knowing where it was from or what it was about etc.) I thought it was about this young, sweet, naive, maybe a bit air-headed girl who just really wanted to be loved and was willing to go very far to feel loved. Megara, despite her backstory, doesn’t fit those characteristics in my opinion.

Catherine Parr

Mrs. Anna: “The king and I” move doesn’t exist in HD, and I think she’d look too old next to the other women. I’m fully aware that  the real women were, obviously, of varying ages, but having just ONE of them look much older than the others would bother me.

Pocahontas: Pocahontas fit Anne so much more, that’s really the only reason I can think of.

Esmeralda: ALMOST chose Esmeralda for a few of these women actually. Parr wasn’t one of them though.

Kida: Kida has, in my opinion, really not that much footage. Moreso than Chel for example, but she spends a good part of the movie either not having been introduced yet, or be a humanized crystal.

Tiana: Too little human footage.

1, 3, 4, 9, 12, 15-18 for the Barbie asks!

1. Favorite Barbie film?

Princess and the Pauper hands down.

Free from PATP is my absolute favorite Barbie song, such a strong introduction to the movie. I Need to Know from the Island Princess is a very close second though.

4. Favorite Barbie film dance scene?

That scene in Swan Lake where the fairy queen is teaching Odette how to dance and there’s little floating lights around them. I love the dancing and the music in that particular scene!

9. Favorite Barbie Villian.

Preminger from PATP and Laverna from Fairytopia. Dangerous, but hospitable ahaha

12. Favorite Barbie Film quote?

I honestly have SO many that I like it’s almost impossible to choose just one. But the two that I always keep in mind are:

“You’re braver than you think” -Swan Lake

“No one can make you feel inferior, not without your consent.” -Princess Charm School

15. (I did this one earlier!)

16. Most romantic Barbie film scene?

The whole entire If You Love Me for Me scene in PATP. I’m jealous of their date aha

17. Funniest Barbie film scene?

I quote from Princess Charm School:

“OWW! You stepped on eight of my toes, I only have four left.”

“Two. You have two left.”

“That’s even WORSE.”

I’m sorry it’s funnier if you actually watch it :’)

18. Favorite Barbie film blooper.

Do you even have to ask? JULIAN DOING THE HIPPITY HOP. HAD ME ON THE FLOOR LAUGHING FOR HOURS WHEN I WAS SMOL

[the-snake-and-the-steel]

Yume is….very, very mildly surprised. She gives Hebi a few lil waves and really wishes she could give the smol snek a hug.

*Hebi glances back at Slyn, who stops talking for a moment.*

....... what flavor of tea is that.

........ lavender.

*Slyn looks around as if making sure no one is watching.* .... may I have a cup?

*Odette pauses and blinks in shock.* I- are you alright?

DON'T question me. Pour me a cup of tea.

............. *Odette pours him the tea and slides the saucer to him, keeping a good distance away from him.*

*He drinks about half of it in a couple gulps, Hebi seeming very satisfied and grateful.*

[penelopepark13]

Seeing Jeremy Jordan back for a couple of episodes on Supergirl and knowing Chris Wood and Odette Annable will be returning briefly as well, my question is ‘WHY NOT BRING BACK MAGGIE??????’

I miss me smol gay detective

BACKGROUND.

trigger(s). mention of exorcism, mentions of murder, & mentions of death. 

born and raised in london, the tate family seemed picture-perfect. though, underneath, the story was very different from how it seemed. while ophelia and her younger sister were showered with love and affection, their parents remained mostly absent albeit for fleeting moments in time. it wasn’t until ophelia grew older that she became more curious about what led her parents astray for weeks at a time. under the illusion that her parents were simply important figures, perhaps lawyers or detectives, a childish ophelia had never considered that their lives had been tainted by a much more corrupt presence. 

eventually, it transpired that her parents were hunters. more specifically, people who hunted down supernatural creatures and put an end to their existence. or, tried, at least. how ophelia stumbled across this fact was by pure chance. her grandfather had been visiting and she had walked into the basement where she witnessed her father and his father attempting to exorcise what she then described as a ‘man with black eyes.’ nowadays, she’d refer to said man and his kind as demonic bastards. 

of course, with their sights elsewhere, the demon managed to free himself only to murder her father and grandfather in the process. if it hadn’t been for her mother, ophelia would have ceased to exist that night also. it was that night that her mother shipped them off to live with their aunt for a while but eventually, after a week or so, her mother returned.

seemingly, everything had been fine until one night when their home was attacked by a pair of vampires. these vampires having been survivors of their mothers attack on their nest, thus they tailed her and laid low until the most opportune moment where they attacked. how ophelia managed to escape that night was anybody’s guess. though the rest of the household hadn’t been so lucky.

having lost her parents, sister and aunt to supernatural creatures, ophelia grew up with a deep rooted hatred for every creature of the night. it had taken her many years to learn of each creature, their weaknesses, strengths and, most importantly, how to kill them. but once she had mastered the art, she set out on a mission to hunt like her parents before her. admittedly, in the beginning, she’d had some near misses, brushing with death many times. but with more hunts under her belt, the better she became.

eventually, ophelia decided to leave london behind in search of the states where she was certain there would be ample supernatural beings endangering the lives of innocents. she moved around for a few years until she settled in hazelgrove where she soon learned that the town harboured an abundance of things that went bump in the night. it was this fact alone that she opted for staying put where she also works as a librarian; constantly researching and reading up on various creatures.

becoming a hunter hadn’t been something that had ever crossed her mind until she’d lost everything. in fact, it had been a path that she should have never stumbled across if it hadn’t been for her witnessing the demon that night. still, nevertheless, it was the road she’d travelled down now and with resentment deep in her bones, there would be no stopping her.

PERSONALITY.

to all who encounter her, ophelia can appear on the surface an extremely reckless and careless woman with a huge tendency to adopt a sardonic tongue during almost all occasions. given her demeanour and attitude, it would be fair to assess that all the blonde is, is a satirical mouthpiece with a permanent simper corroded into the corner of her lips. despite this all, the shell of ophelia does contain much more substance. regardless of her blasé attitude, a passionate, whimsical girl remains deep within the high walls of her persona. it’s almost safe to say that the facade she paints over herself every day is nothing more than a basic ruse; a temporary fixture to aid in slowly but permanently fixing the broken fractions of her mind. it goes without saying that ophelia is constantly shrouded in mystery, concealing her true emotions and feigning any feelings whatsoever. although a sensitive, vulnerable aspect of her persona remains, it seldom prevails against her impulsive, sarcastic, intelligent nature. the problem with being clever is already knowing the things others try so desperately to hide from you. ophelia knows how others view her, she sees how they look at her. everybody assumes she’s too difficult to reason with and believe she’s even tougher to understand. it is this that enables ophelia to flirt with danger, use her words as a weapon and also a bargaining chip. it is this that gives ophelia an overwhelming sense of adrenaline, swimming through her veins and fuelling the fire that lies within the pit of her stomach.

QUICK FACTS.
