#poster gal book

[magicat1337]

ATTENTION!!! ATTENTION!!! I AM LITERALLY WRITING A NOVEL WITH A HUGO WEAVING FANGIRL AS THE PROTAGONIST!!!!!

And do you want to hear about it? Good.

The book is called Poster Gal (though I’m considering a bunch of other names for it), and it takes place between 2004-2007. We also have a few other girls that are also friends with Izzy

They fuck around, get into fights at school, and have wacky adventures at the mall. Regular stuff… *giggle*

The first girl with the red hair and snakebites is Izzy Martinez, as I said, she is obsessed with Hugo Weaving, if the grape barrette wasn’t a subtle indicator. She is also interested in emo stuff, has her own Hugo Weaving fanpage (which I might make when it comes time to market the book), and she is also one of THE snarkiest creatures ever

Roxy Hamilton, the blue haired THING, is what most people these days would call mall-goth, even though that was just a term for “poser” back when the book takes place (Roxy really hates that mall-goth is an insult), her favorite band is Korn, and the only reason she looks that cool is because Izzy gives her the clothes needed to look cool. She LOVES reading comics in her free time, especially JTHM and Hellblazer. In fact, she likes Hellblazer so much that the brain worms from the gas station pizza she ate when she was 12 decided to eat her brain in a way that she becomes John Constantine essentially

Aspen , the ginger girl, is the resident Orlando Bloom/Viggo Mortensen fangirl, because we NEED one. She appears to be an unfriendly bitch who hates everyone at first, unless you get to know her a little better. Or you’re vaguely pretty like Izzy is. Aspen is based on every single friend I had for a few months that then turned into a total bitch, down to the physical appearance. Mainly Freedom, who didn’t actually match Aspen’s appearance as much as some of the others did, but still, she had vaguely sunburnt skin

also every character represents a real person, Izzy is me, Roxy is a slurry of some of my best friends, and we all know who Aspen is based on

Maybe you’ll learn more one day

“hey, were you team jacob or team edward?”

It had been years since she last watched those romantic movies. To be frank, she’d even forgotten they existed at all. However, it’d be an outright lie to say that Chiyori hadn’t been a massive fan of the Twilight series back then.

Moving her hand up to cup her chin, the young woman mulled over the question for a bit. Her eyebrows knitted together in deep contemplation. Well, the answer used to be Jacob, but perhaps it had changed — she’d gotten older.

After a moment of consideration, her expression loosened. Offering the teenager a sheepish smile, she responded: “Uh, they were both quite attractive, but maybe... team Edward..?” Hopefully, this was a good enough answer.

While Chiyori understood the importance of the question, she couldn’t help but wonder about the relevance of it nowadays. “What do you think, Nobara-chan?”

Well, after many months- I'm happy to share my (rather ambitious) cover for our Final Fantasy Ladies zine: Lucia Sidera. I still can't believe the team trusted me with such an important cover. I decided to be insane and try and draw every main gal from each title and spin off (I ran out of time, so I didn't get everyone sadly). The mod team was already SO patient with me. I didn't have to do all this- but I legitimately had this vision since 2009 (and there were a LOT less gals back then). You can see from teh initial sketch layout, how many character were originally planned- but then...I went off the rails. (note, the first image is the poster version, and second is book variant)

Final Fantasy is kinda my life, let's be real- as corny as it sounds. It has been with me most of my time here on Earth. It set me upon the path I'm on now. I wouldn't be Allison without these characters, the music, the art, the stories. I won't mush too much, but this, to me, was a very special opportunity to show just how much I love this series. Getting to share that with other people in this community, whose life has been deeply touched by Final Fantasy meant a lot to me- and I hope people find there faves in this cover!

I have the remaining folded posters from the zine bundles coming in the mail, but will also be offering this as a 11x17 print soon! So much detail means it won't be coming in smaller sizes, apologies!

Anyway, it would be all too easy for me to talk about this cover and my thoughts overall but I suppose it's not overly necessary- it can speak for itself I guess! I hope you like it :)

[iamnmbr3]

I keep thinking about the fact that hinny is kind of the opposite of drarry in the sense that Harry really shouldn't know that much about Draco but he does, while he should know a lot about Ginny but he doesn't.

Harry and Draco aren't friends and aren't even in the same House but Harry is so attuned to him that he remembers items Draco looked at in a shop more than 4 years previously, knows every detail of his appearance down to the exact shade of his eyes and skin, and can recognize him instantly just by the sound of his footsteps or a glimpse of him from far away. He also knows a lot about Draco's interests and beliefs and can usually tell his exact mood just by a look at his face.

Conversely, Harry and Ginny are in the same House and Harry has also spent every summer since second year living with her, plus holidays during 5th and 6th year. They also start dating in the end of sixth year. Despite this fact Harry has never even been in her room till 7th year and when he goes in, he shows no sign of recognition at the posters he sees there. You'd think, for example, that he would already know that she likes the Harpies and the Weird Sisters and thus think about how of course she has that in her room, or something. Who are her friends? Who knows? Certainly not Harry! What kind of wand does she have? Harry doesn't know. (Even though he does know both of these things about Draco). What does she want to do after graduating? How did she handle the trauma of what happened with Riddle in book 2? Does she have any insights from that that could be helpful? No idea. Harry's doesn't care and isn't interested in finding out.

Honestly, when he thinks of her it's mostly about her physical features. And even then, her eye color only gets mentioned once - in book 7, and we still don't get the specific shade. I'll buy that he feels lust for her. But love? Honestly I find myself once again thinking about the parallels between hinny and ron/lavender.

Consider:

Versus:

Kinda sounds like both the relationships being described are light on the talking side of things...

Also guess what the first thing Harry does after kissing Ginny, the alleged love of his life is? If you guessed "looks lovingly into her eyes" or "says something to her" you'd be wrong. Here's what goes down:

That's right guys, gals and nonbinary pals. He looks right over the top of Ginny's head (and isn't that a metaphor for their relationship right there - he's literally overlooking her to think about other stuff) to check in with Ron. His actual priority - the person whose opinion and regard he actually cares about.

➛ IF THE ATWOW CHARACTERS HAD TUMBLR

featuring! tsireya, lo’ak, neteyam, kiri, ao’nung, rotxo!

just for fun. i couldn’t decide if i wanted to make this a human au, or keep them na’vi… so it’s a mix of both!

TSIREYA - @reefprincessreya 𓇼

she has the most beautiful, aesthetically-pleasing layout you’ll ever see.

username: “reef” because she loves the sea (duh), and “princess” because it’s really pretty + feminine, and she literally is a reef princess after all. finally, her cute nickname “reya”, where the alliteration makes her url extra catchy !

her bio would totally have some beautiful quote.. like, “the way of water has no beginning and no end.” ;)

tsireya does it alllllll. she has her personal tags that she puts on every post to keep organized, and she’ll spend hours on her new themes.

╭ @reefprincessreya

┆sooo happy! our brothers and sisters have

┆returned today, and i finally saw my spirit sister

┆again! she is healthy and well <3

╰ #reya’s life ˚୨୧⋆｡

unlike the rest, who prefer the more private feel of their blog, tsireya shared hers with all her friends who all consistently use tumblr together!

LO'AK - @yooooitsloak

username: he just typed in the first thing that came to mind. 

lo’ak literally made a tumblr account just because of tsireya. 

it’s almost a ghost blog, but he at least took the time to add a pfp (which is a photo of his fav pair of sneakers). 

lo’ak likes every single one of tsireya’s posts. even if there’s only 1 note; it’s lo’ak. 

(we love a supportive boyfriend)

NETEYAM - @burntouteclipse ✰

neteyam is the ultimate aesthetic, educated and sophisticated king for liking tumblr by himself ✊🏻 (no shade to lolo though). like ‘reya, he also has a clean, aesthetically-pleasing layout, but it’s more masculine.

username: just sounds cool, y’know? he also works his ass off and is “burnt out” after all (perfection and golden-childism ain’t easy), and eclipse is just a time of day neteyam really enjoys where he gets to relax and spend time for himself. 

neteyam doesn’t complain much in real life, or let out a lot of his feelings. tumblr is like his peaceful, personal, private corner where he can speak his mind, which he really appreciates. 

i can see him reblogging and following fashion accounts that he likes, as well as occasionally posting a little ramble. ‘teyam’s page is scattered with some little thoughts and feelings here and there between reblogs of cool streetwear clothing and artistic photos/photography (for human neteyam). 

you’ll see him and tsireya interact with each other on occasion! 

╭ @burntouteclipse

┆ accidentally hit my knee earlier today,

╰  and now i can barely run properly. shit

⠀ ╭ @reefprincessreya

⠀ ┆ oh no! i’m sorry to hear. hope you

⠀ ╰ ➤ will feel better soon, ma ‘eylan! ♥︎

⠀ ╭ @burntouteclipse ☆ Original Poster

⠀ ╰ ➤ thank you tsireya

if there’s a girl he likes, neteyam’ll try and see if she has a tumblr. he’ll eventually find it, and enjoys scrolling through her posts + loves reading her little rambles. but he does it from a distance, and doesn’t interact (you’d never know. he’s the epitome of secret admirer). . .

KIRI - @atokirina333 ❀

username: kiri’s a spiritual gal, what can i say? not to mention, she was named after the atokirina, so it’s perfect. there’s also angel numbers!! ofc!!! ps: this url was taken at first, but she tracked down the person and convinced them to give it to her. somehow. 

unlike neteyam who writes ‘n posts small things sometimes… kiri can rant here. don’t get me wrong, she’s not posting paragraphs, but she definitely lets loose when she wants to.

human kiri posts her plants, her crystals, her music vinyls, the desserts she likes baking, her books and posters, literally anything and everything you’d find in her room because it’s all pretty.

what else would you see on her page? poetry. reblogs of quotes and aesthetic photos, and especially pretty photos of nature (kiri and ‘reya’s tumblrs are similar in this sense)!

she and tsireya reblog each other very often! 

AO'NUNG

"what's tumblr?"

ROTXO - @justrotxo

username: he’s just rotxo! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ though when he first joined, his @ was originally “reefboyrotxo”, but he (jokingly) got called out for copying tsireya, so he changed it.

hm, tbh, i don’t really see him as an avid tumblr user!

i have a headcanon that human rotxo'd be a surfer though, so i feel like he’d probably have 1-2 posts of a beautiful sunset + his surfboard, and like one post of a random thought he had. that’s it. his theme would also be blue/teal. 

i feel like he would’ve gotten tumblr because of his friends, and goes on just to see all of their posts. 

he interacts with/likes the posts of everyone in his circle! :) 

. . .

AO'NUNG (continued)

“what’s tumblr?”

it’s a social media app. your sister likes using it.

“oh, ok. whatever.”

neteyam sully uses it too. oh, and his brother lo’ak.

ao’nung is already intrigued at neteyam, but when he hears lo’ak is on there? oh boy.

he immediately signs up, and then gets all of his friends to as well.

soon, lo’ak is flabbergasted at the sudden flood of random anonymous troll asks he receives on his empty blog. 

ao’nung was going to anonymously send something to ‘teyam as well (obviously not to lo’ak’s extent), but after finding and looking through it… he actually secretly likes neteyam’s blog.

after everyone find out it’s him, he still eventually just keeps his tumblr to continue messing with the sullys, and his sister. popping in with a “DELETE THIS 🔥🔥🔥” to show he’s indeed still there, once every few eclipses. 

╭ @reefprincessreya

╰ ➤ ao’nung. rä’ä.

the end!

╭ @pureforestspirits

┆heyy! thanks so much for reading <3  

┆fun fact: i started writing this in my notes

┆app one day at like 4am. the sleep

┆deprivation was worth it, i think.

I’d love to hear about your Rotfront STAR (unless I’m tweaking and thinking of a different person)!

Hello!!! Sorry it took a minute to answer this 😅

I do have a STAR who WAS on rotfront but has since been transferred to a port in the middle of bumfuck Vineta, my gal Feuerkröte! I’m not sure if this is the star you’re talkin about but I’ll yap abt her anyways :3

She was originally part of a cadre on rotfront that handled typical interrogation type things and other such protektor duties. She was a younger star in her cadre and pretty popular within the hierarchy, she had it good! That is until a major fuckup during an investigation led by her (even though she was popular in her cadre her usual assignments involved being under other units, this was her first time truly being alone in charge).

She was reckless and heavy handed, and screwed up bad enough that her options were transfer, or decommission. Feuerkröte chose to be transferred and arrived at the VVH port in Vineta, where she’s trying to adjust to an established STAR cadre and is pretty lonely but doesn’t do a lot about it (STARs who are losers <333).

Also fun fact about her but she LOVES old vinetan cars I think she has a poster of some by her bunk and she’s just. Chock full of car knowledge. She saw pictures of old cars in a book at a library in Rotfront on one of her days off once and it unlocked something in her. She’s also a bit of a prankster and loves tormenting @/rostomantologist’s kolibri Viper who she has a bit of a toxic yuri relationship with (go check out Winnie’s blog I highly recommend)

I haven’t thought a lot about her time on rotfront but this ask has had me rotating her a bit… tysm for sending it ^^

Hello, my friend, you have BOMBARDED me with these asks, I love it :]

For Sarah and Harley:

Yes, I'd say so. They're pretty young, so they haven't gone through that oh-so traumatic "everything about me is weird and awkward" phase of youth yet. Though, Harley has some self-consciousness of a few of the scars he gets on the SW quest

As of now? No, but Harley gets into punk rock and Sarah is super ride or die for basically any bad idea he has, so when they're 17 they get tattoos without telling anyone. Both their parents are livid about it

Sarah collects cool rocks and Harley collects dinosaurs :]

As said previously, Harley gets into punk rock, and Sarah has One music aesthetic and its the Crane Wives

Oh god, ummmmmm, neither of them particularly hate any music genre. Except for a few country songs that they only make fun of to annoy Steve, who does like Country, for some reason he won't ever explain

Sarah's phone background is a really blurry picture of her dog playing tug-of-war with one of Harley's raptors, and his is also a really blurry picture of the same thing but taken from a different angle

I've never thought about it, I don't really know tbh

Bubble. Wrap.

It's not professional by any means, at least, not in the mortal world--but they both get really competitive about Pyrobligst

Harley puts up tacky and overly colorful posters that don't even make sense because of how little color he grew up with. Sarah is a string lights kinda gal

They're 13 yr olds, of course they're messy

Harley: amidst a pile of raptors. Sarah: hogging all the blankets, she's the worst at sleepovers

They're both still children to me, so I'd say probably little trinkets their parents gave them when they're away from home for demigod business

Sarah is all about the Renaissance, though no one can figure out why. Harley is partial to the 1700s, mostly because a certain immortal pirate captain works for his father and likes to tell him stories of his time on the high seas

Harley can't cook and should never be trusted near a stove. Sarah is only a little bit better, but they're both chaotic and think they can bend the laws of physics to make cooking time go faster. Jim doesn't let them in the kitchen anymore

They both hate seafood. They don't like the texture, they don't like the taste. No I'm not projecting

No allergies per se, though they both get hit with seasonal stuff every spring and it kills their sinuses

Ooohhhhh, uh I will disincline to answer this because Spoilers

Any Pixar movie.

Harley will never, ever get tired of Alice in Wonderland. He relates to her way too much. Sarah doesn't read often because her dyslexia is worse than average for a demigod, but her favorite movie of all time is A Bug's Life

They both love to dance. Sarah is good at it, Harley's skill is better left unsaid, lol

Sarah's was definitely when Carter gifted her one of his knives. Very appropriate for a prepubescent girl, I know. Harley's was when Jim conscripted Leo and Nico's help to make him the infamous Raptor Resonating Chamber whistle he uses to properly communicate with his raptors

Sarah can't actually pick one because her life was pretty normal up until she met Carter. And Harley's will be the one on the island. For as sad as the situation is, they all do their best to make it fun

Chocolate all day every day

Sarah's is any pigeon ever. She found out about their past as domesticated animals and had Big Feelings about it. Harley's is the bat-eared fox. He aspires to pet one someday.

I will cut it there, and then reblog this post later, cause I don't want it to get too long all at once! Thanks for the asks!

EAH Dorm Rooms Headcanon 10

Justine & Ramona

One's a dancing princess while the other is a bad wolf.

Ramona and Justine are opposites in more than one way, but both are caring to their core.

Ramona and Justine are opposites in more than one way, but both are caring to their core.

I find it hard to believe that these two came late during the show's run, yet we saw more of their dorm than the other characters that been around since the first chapter. Well, that's life for ya.

Talk about an odd pair of roommates. One side is an actual wolfs den and the other side is a princess's dream bedroom. It's a huge mishmash of styles highlighting each girls' aesthetic.

Their dorm seems to be the smallest of the dorm layouts seeing how the divider thing is missing (animation error).

This proves my theory that it doesn't matter your destiny is the rooms are assigned at random.

Justine's side: As the twelfth daughter of 'The Twelve Dancing Princesses' story, Justine loves to dance (with tap dancing being her fave) and has made it her mission to master all forms of dance and even combine them.

Justine's room is highlighted with music and dance themes. If you look at the second image above, you can see her vanity set resembles a grand piano's lid (Besides Raven's vanity with a hidden keyboard inside I want that).

Also, she has countless posters of singers and dancers throughout her side of the dorm and ballerina decorations on her bed.

The only time the room was shown was during 'Moonlight Mystery' and it was used to find out why Justine's ballet slippers were ruined.

As already confirmed the room is so small it requires a wardrobe instead of a closet.

With the dividers missing (error) they would have pictures of Justine with her family and friends. On her dresser you can see numerous photos of her family and in the above image of the room's layout there's a portrait of Justine with her sisters.

Justine has a fainting chaise like Apple and Blondie. A gramophone and string lights (not shown look at above image).

Seeing how small the room is Justine most likely dances at the Red Shoes Dance Club, the dance classroom, or she dances on her side and the middle.

Ramona's side: Ramona is the future Bad Wolf (coughCERISEcough) and she's a villian that's killin' it.

At first glance Ramona is a tough-as-nails kind of gal with a sarcastic streak to match. But like a wolf she's loyal to her friends and family, even if she messes with her cousin, Cerise (I know they're sisters in the show I'll explain why I made them cousins later).

Romana's side of the room has an earthy-punkish style to her. Her side of the dorm doesn't feel like a room at all and has more nature to it than Ashlynn's side of the dorm (I'm kinda shocked by that).

On the base of Ramona's bed there are dream catchers, I see them as a way of expressing her culture and maybe she has bad dreams of her future or other things that weren't seen in the books or show.

Ramona's candle's a most likely wildflower or wood scented.

I love how Ramona uses the trees of the school for her bed, bookcase, and lightning! I wish all the other rooms used the tree as if it were part of the room as well.

Ramona's wardrobe wasn't seen, but I bet it's just a hollowed-out tree like her bookcase.

In the corner of the room, we can see a ton of rocks that Ramona rests on when she's in full wolf mode.

Some Merch Ideas for the folks at Gun because I'm getting desperate ♥️

More character based candles (specifically like, what characters smell like or what certain locations smell like. I NEED a candle like those book based ones on Etsy and it's fuckin ✨Johnny's Shack; empty beer bottle and spunk✨. I also desperately need to know what Johnny smells like (probably spunk) for science purposes. Also Sissy would have the BEST candle I don't wanna hear it, my gal would be floral n musky and fresh and I NEED IT PLEASE-)

Poster of the whole family (preferably having dinner with the poster as like a POV, so it looks like you're at the head of the table with them. Like Grandpa is across from you, Drayton, Bubba n Nubbins are in their spots from the movie, and we add Choptop (TRUST he will be in this game), Hands, Nancy, Johnny n Sissy)

Poster of the victims (whyyyyy is there no victim merch? We know Leland and Ana would sell like hot cakes. I bought Maria's candle the literal second it dropped and I love it, I need a poster of them just hanging out and Virginia is fucking chaperoning or something idk)

Jewellery based on what the characters wear (Don't @ me I'd wear Maria and Jules' bracelets in a heartbeat, also Maria's cute lil clip)

Clothes based on the characters (This would be hard, I get that. But like, some of the victim's shirts are so cool!! I found a few halter tops similar to what Jules wears but getting my hands on something close to Maria's blouse is really hard, and I think Leland and Ana's shirts are super cool, same with Sonny, that boy can DRESS, it'd be so cool, especially since the community has so much love for the cosplayers)

Pins! (Could be the abilities, the characters, the weapons. Could be cute stuff like Nugget or sunflowers or health bottles, I'm not picky)

Keyrings (I'd MUCH prefer pins, personally, but come onnnn so many people have made their own keyrings, I'm so surprised Gun hasn't got official ones)

Nugget plushies (I know some exist, but like... I want one 🧍 make them available to me-)

Maria's missing poster (MORBID I know but come onnnn it's iconic)

Maria's photographs from Petals as post cards

Literally ANYTHING AT ALL that has the victims, Johnny, SISSY, Nancy and Hands. Like I'm literally BEGGING

Please consider these, Gun, I know you aren't reading this ♥️ I am clawing at the bars of my enclosure for literally anything Johnny n Sissy related, and of course I want everyone's favourite character to have something. You could release a shitty A4 poster of Johnny's game model t-posing and it'd sell like hot cakes, PLEASE-

[ranposbabe]

ive just seen the released promo posters of Rhaenyra and Alicent and ik ima “book over show” typa gal 💞 but honestly im so hyped for season 2!!!

ALSOOOO me not posting hotd content since march is the true crime here… 😔

(i lowkey wanna bring back my hotd fanfics along with a traumatized y/n targaryen hehe)

[thedawningofthehour]

Galois Room Post!

I made Gale's room in the Sims! It took a ridiculous amount of time for such a tiny room. Overall I'm pretty happy with how it turned out-it's faithful to what I was picturing, and the places it's not can be blamed more on the limitations of the Sims 4. One thing I struggled with was the size. It's supposed to be a pretty small room, most of the living areas in Draxum's house are, but I definitely had trouble placing everything I wanted in there. Sizing it up 1x1 made it feel too big though. (Sims 5, please let us build walls on half or quarter tiles, I'm BEGGING you) In the end I couldn't fit in a real bookshelf, which was my only real gripe, but he still has plenty of space for books. (plus Draxum has so many bookshelves, he can offload some if he gets too cramped)

I wanted to have it mostly Galois but not 100% Galois. He's a teenager and wants to decorate his bedroom to the nines because that's what teenagers do, but I also wanted to keep in mind that this furniture was not bought for him and was mostly left over from its last occupant/bought when Draxum viewed Donnie as his new science slave and not his son.

Without further ado, here we go!

It's...yeah, it's white. Nothing else really looked good. It was Bella's room first and Draxum didn't bother to repaint. She probably had this place papered with posters and cringey 90's wall hangings when she lived here. In retrospect pale purple walls were a trend in the 90's, but whatever it's done now.

(I also forgot to paint the walls originally so I might have just gotten used to the white)

Also just imagine the ceilings are a little lower, the wall height needed to be on medium for the rest of Draxum's house to work and due to how the Sims 4 works I couldn't give just Gale's room shorter walls. The top of the cabinet should be touching the ceiling.

Other side! Gave him some nice plants, he's got some hanging ones around his bed and computer area. :) I'm not sure how I feel about the rug but I was feeling a circular rug and the colors worked. Left door is to the bathroom.

Huginn and Muninn 100% made that knitted turtle for him.

Did I give him one of those fairy light canopies every movie and sitcom character had in the 2000's? Yes. Yes I did. Look, I wasn't planning on it, but I saw it in the lighting section and I had to give it to him. I know I'm terrible to him but he is my baby and I will spoil him.

Better view of the bed. (the canopy kept fading from existence) Got the salt lamp and the lantern Cass gave him, I'm so happy I found those. I'm probably the least happy here, he needs more stuff on his shelves and more pictures under them. There's so many goddamn pictures in this room but HE IS A TEENAGED BOY and this is how they express themselves.

Also the clutter under the bed. In-fic that platform is actually storage space, so it works. Please enjoy how he's hiding his fashion magazines behind the pillow.

His little computer corner! The Draxum family stays pretty unplugged when they're not at work, (Draxum would like them to be anyway) but Gale's allowed to have all the tech he wants in his bedroom as long as it stays in this corner.

Swing back again and-

Just pretend that the vampire doll is Atomic Lass, okay?

So that bookcase thing. Is NOT a bookcase. It is a thing of evil. It drove me absolutely nuts because I wanted to fill those shelves in with clutter. Those are not snap points. But the bookcase has snap points. So I couldn't alt-move stuff there or use 9-0 keys because they'd just snap to the bottom there. So now they just look empty and stupid while he has books on the floor.

But other than that, I like this corner. He's got some binders for schoolwork in the cubby there, got some artsy stuff for relaxing and his box of vinyl records with no record player. (Draxum probably has a record player somewhere) It looks like how an actual teenager would organize his shit. I'm not sure how I feel about him leaving a stack of books on the floor, but overall Gale is a very good book owner so I'm sure he's careful.

He doesn't get a window so I gave him a nice picture with curtains so he can pretend.

On a side note, I absolutely fucking hate the curtains in this game, that was the only set that looked good and didn't cover up the whole damn picture AND THEY DIDN'T COME IN PURPLE. Really, there's such a lack of purple in this room. Blame the color swatches, because I tried. God I miss Create-A-Style.

Again, please use your imagination and imagine the bulletin board filled with pictures of him with Cass or Pax and loving notes from the goyles. There's also a watch on his dresser-before he recreated his tech gauntlet, Draxum gave him a really nice watch to wear. He doesn't wear it anymore because having his gauntlet on hand is a major source of comfort, but he still loves the watch. I also realize this looks more like a girl's bedroom, but to be fair Donnie is very gender and Galois inherited that from him.

(I was SO tempted to put that box of kleenex behind his computer)

Close-up of the clutter in his corner. I know Donnie's canonically not into geology, but this game really wants you to use rocks as decor. Also purple.

I don't know what that orb thing is supposed to be. Maybe like a mini version of the orb Draxum was looking into during the Goyles episode? That sounds like something a Yokai teenager would have in their room.

I wanted to give him a stereo too but my game glitched out and wouldn't place any, so I put a mixtape there in honor of that. We'll say Cass made it for him.

I did make his bathroom too, but it's not the most interesting because

Yeah, pretty small.

God, doors in this game look so silly when they're up against a wall.

It was looking way too white so I gave him the fishies and the plants for a splash of green. That sink is also SO not the style I was going for but everything else was clashing with the other counter. We can say this bathroom was remodeled at some point when vessel sinks were in fashion. I don't know why because no one was living here when they were. (Huginn and Muninn probably did it as a weekend project just for fun) I feel like he needs a rug and a big piece of art on the opposite wall, now that I'm looking at it.

I definitely went overboard with the bathroom clutter. I was just very excited that I was able to squeeze in a whole counter just for decoration. Seriously, I just wanted to add in that eyebrow pencil so he could draw on his eyebrows, then that evolved into the blush palette and the makeup brushes and the lotions and the nail stuff. He doesn't even fucking wear blush.

He did make his electric toothbrush, though Draxum makes him keep a backup because he's skeptical about how that works.

And that's the build! I'm also building the rest of Draxum's house, but it's taking a while due to the absolute utter ridiculousness of the layout. (I mean, it's my own fault, I'm the one that chose this layout)(and also because I need to use the curved wall tool for his mushroom house, and by god curved walls are impossible to work with) Decorating should be quicker though, the only place with this level of detail should be the lab and maybe the greenery. I'll probably revise his room a little, maybe paint his walls an actual color. I also want to do something more with the cactus he has on his counter. Maybe I'll download some more CC so I can give him purple curtains.

I also have no idea if this is actually playable. Probably not, I feel like a Sim wouldn't be able to figure out the platform bed thing. But whatever, I didn't make this to actually play in.

Anyways, here's two absolutely fucking insane things that happen in my book that have ACTUALLY happened to me at my school (it's kinda a semiautobiography lol)

A teacher getting caught reading LOTR slash on a school computer attached to the school's internet.

He was never fired btw, iof you want to know what it was, it was Legolas X Gimli, though for a long time everyone thought it was Frodo x Sam

A teacher teaching a homophobic kid a lesson

I though I'd describe this one for you because just putting it in the title would ruin the fun:

One year I had this very awesome teacher (we'll call her Miss N) who had the same music taste I did, and everyone loved her. Except for this one kid that I'll call Edgar because that's the name of the character in my book inspired by him.

Edgar was really homophobic and would start preaching the nastiest shit you've ever heard in the middle of class. One day, he straight up changed his computer wallpaper to a photo of the nazi flag. I don't now if he still does this, but I don't have many doubts that he still does

Miss N's way of dealing with misbehaving students was (and might still be) to take their computer and download My Little Pony pictures onto it. She did the regular with this kid, but then she took it one step further and changed his wallpaper to a photo of two buff men kissing eachother

I wish I could remember his exact reaction to it, but I swear at the time the picture she changed it too was a popular internet meme, or its meme status came a little while later

[osbob-the-existent]

hey! this is chance & here’s week 6’s prompt. what are your protagonist’s bedrooms like? (or equivalent) messy? neat? carefully designed? or a collection of their favorite things? you can verbally describe or use photos, whatever you think is best.

Ooh, lots to unpack!

Blanq's room is very large, big four poster bed in the middle of one wall. I'd like to imagine most of it is black, and all angular- the chairs are angular, the tables are angular, the fireplace is angular. The door is in one corner, such that you're facing one of two big windows as you come in- floor to ceiling, and flanking the fireplace. The bed is on your left, and a tall cupboard or wardrobe next to it, and a rug on the floor. Most of the furniture is white, but the rug is red. And there's a little pointy plant on the mantle piece

The Artopians... Hmm. I haven't thought about their bedding arrangements in much depth at all to be honest. Mostly because I got stuck on names for so long.

I think the rooms are all together in Artopia, in one building. I'd like to think they're at the top of a flight of stairs, two rooms in the left and two on the right, so the rooms form a square with the stairs going out the bottom edge

Pepper absolutely has a sheet of paper she tucks herself under, clipping over the top neatly like a proper paper clip. Her room is very scrapbooky, lots of notes and things to remember, and photos- so many photos of fun days out and happy memories. And she can't bring herself to stick them down because moving them around is half the fun. I can imagine pink walls, but in a sort of peach way, and buried under paper and shelving

Arin doesn't put much in his room. There's mementos from his uncle Woolbur's many jobs, a selection of school reports, a half-filled out sudoku book... And a big pile of beanbags he likes to sleep in. Being largely spherical it doesn't bother him so much, and it reminds him of home, piled up with everyone in a big heap. However, I do think he hangs a lot of stuff from the ceiling, probably model planes

Hylie leans into a very... I'd almost call it academia look for her room. Big shelves, plush dark red walls, a wooden bed, the works. At least one of her shelves has a to-do list on it, which gets swapped regularly. She also strikes me as a "billion plushies" type gal, with a routine for each. Sometimes she brings them places and takes photos

Ezra... Green, an evergreen sort of green I think. Lots of half-finished craft projects, from costumes to schoolwork, and a toolbox (the old fashioned metal ones) full of art supplies. He is trying to make his own bed, but the mattress is too heavy and he's too stubborn to ask for help, so it's just a mattress and some cardboard tubes. There are also several boxes marked "secret" that contain gifts for his friends, that he hasn't finished yet

[newbornwhumperfly]

How would each member of the team decorate their rooms, given infinite resources?

oops this answer is...years late but the lovely thoughtfulness of the question still captivates me, it was so thrilling to think about this and thank you so much for your sweet early interest in my world, @much-ado-about-whumping 💖😍💖

~

Brax - As you know, Brax is an eminently fancy human, so they’d be very stylish and luxurious in making their quarters like their old apartment. Brax’s tastes run…expensive, since they appreciate high-quality things. Silk sheets, scented candles, rich jewel-toned velvet couches and foot-stools - they would especially invest in their collection of books. Being a massive bookworm, they would prefer shelf upon shelf of finely bound books surrounding them at all times. They would invest in some dimming lights. They would also invest in a more orthopedic chair for their desk (because hours of paperwork is a bitch and a half on one’s neck), honestly, Tyrus Legion bases have poor taste in chairs, in their personal opinion. 

Cobi - His first change would be adding a nice big window you can actually open, cause he’s an outdoorsy boy and needs a lot more natural sunshine in his personal space. Cobi would add lots more goofy queer decor, banners and throw pillows and stuff. Cobi would also add little bright and colorful bits and bobs cause he’s a little magpie - souvenirs, prizes he won at fairs, photographs of pals and family, just…would like lots of room to scatter his stuff. A big space to live his big life in his big body. He would also have little things for pets since Cobi loves pets! So, towers for cats, beds for dogs, all the amenities for his furry friends. Speaking of friends, Cobi would appreciate big couches and deep-sinking-into chairs, floofy poofs to sit on, lots of surfaces for friends to sit down on and just chill. Oh, he’d also have so many mini-fridges and snack-bars, just a multitude of every kind of food-stuff a loved one would enjoy. 

Claudia - While Claud certainly is a sporty gal and a very tough butch, she is also a nerd at heart and wants her sanctum sanctorum to be a place of goofing and security. It’s harder for her to invest in creature comforts unless she’s being very indulgent, but given the resources, she’d have a real little nerd-cave! She’s extremely into video games, so when she’s not doing jock shit, Claud likes to turn off her brain by focusing on a nice little puzzle task that’s also fun. Her room would have a nice little gaming console set up, one of those cool gaming desk chairs, the whole shebang. Claud would do cool neons and interesting mood-lighting, with cool blues and greens to give a underwater glow vibe to the room. She would also buy lots of organizing furniture (like shoe racks or hat hooks) that neaten the space up but still keeps her stuff on display. She would put up a lot of posters of the video games and action films she likes best, especially the vintage dorky ones from the 80’s/90’s. 

Sarai - One thing Sarai takes very, very seriously is softness and permission to be soft. So her personal space is an area she has tried her utmost to cultivate that softness. Because of her disabilities, Sarai would prefer to make anything and everything as accessible as possible. She is still in the process of shedding shame over needing assistance, so she would have railings and grabbable-things to help with standing and walking around, plenty of room for her chair, etc. She would have one of those fancy motorized beds, a large bathtub with jets and stairs and shit. Sarai is also a very luxurious person at heart and an aesthete, so she would splurge on gorgeous silky throw blankets and tasseled pillows, painted lampshades, elaborately embroidered drapes for the windows and doorways, just every surface alight with warm, ripe-fruit colors. Deep, soft, sheepskin rugs on every surface so every step is warm and soft. Just deep indulgence to remind herself she deserves rest and softness, a refuge for when she forgets. 

Jorah - In general, Jorah is kind of…straightforward and spartan in his personal tastes, super uhhh CisHet Guy oops more like he has sunk deep into a persona of being as Normie and Unobjectionable As Possible but that is neither here nor there. He doesn’t have a lot of personal touches in his home decor, for lack of a better word, and since he’s literally on a military base, he would prefer to let his Job Aesthetic dominate his personal space (it’s to help Compartmentalize, shh, think nothing of it.) So, you will see a lot of greytone…Adidas-esque aesthetics. Plain, hotel-esque bedclothes and furniture, expensive enough to be good quality but not unique, really? He doesn’t really care, as long as none of the style hokey or faux pas. Nice, respectable, businessman chic. Jorah would maybe splurge on some bougie exercise gear, nice shoes, good selection of athleisure, etc. He isn’t much the type to decorate a room, more his body. But he would probably invest in a nice fucking shower with perks, jets and all, because, damnit, this job is stressful sometimes and hey, decompressing lets him do his job better and high water pressure sure helps him relax and gets the blood out from under his nails.

thank you again, bel, what a thoughtful and delightful ask! 💖💖💖

The Bible Says That The Messiah Will Not Come From Israel

Eli Kittim

Isaiah Declares That The Messiah Will NOT Come From Israel

In Isaiah 46:11 (KJV), God says: I will bring from a far country the Messiah who will execute my counsel (cf. Matt. 28:18; 1 Cor. 15:24-25):

Calling … the man that executeth my

counsel from a far country: yea, I have

spoken it, I will also bring it to pass; I have

purposed it, I will also do it.

For further biblical evidence concerning a Gentile Messiah, see the following paper: ⬇️

The Masoretic Text (Old Testament)

In Isaiah 46:11, the Hebrew word מֵאֶ֥רֶץ (mê·’e·reṣ) means “from the land” or “country,” while the word מֶרְחָ֖ק (mer·ḥāq) means “distant place” or “from afar.” Together they mean “from a distant place,” “from afar,” or “from a distant country.” Since God is speaking to the Israelites, it is obvious that the Messiah he has appointed to execute his counsel WILL NOT come from Palestine!

Isaiah 46:9-11 reads:

I am God, and there is none like me,

Declaring the end from the beginning, and

from ancient times the things that are not

yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand,

and I will do all my pleasure: Calling … the

man that executeth my counsel from a far

country: yea, I have spoken it, I will also

bring it to pass; I have purposed it, I will also

do it.

The Greek Old Testament (Septuagint)

This is also recorded in the Greek Old Testament of Isaiah 46:9-11. The LXX uses the word αὐτόν (autón)——which is the accusative masculine singular form of αυτός, meaning “him”——to describe the “man” who will be called “from a land afar off” to execute both God’s counsel and plans! The key word here is πόρρωθεν, which means “from a distance” or “from afar” (see Lk. 17:12; Heb. 11:13). It means that this messianic figure will come from a distant country. He is obviously not a native Israelite! Similarly, in Matt. 21:43, the literary Jesus promised that the kingdom of God will be taken away from the Jews and given to another nation. What is more, the covenant of the seed (in Genesis 12) is a reference to Christ. That is to say, the covenant is through Abraham’s seed, who **is** Christ (see Gal. 3:16). That’s why Isaiah 61:9 says that the Gentiles are the blessed posterity of God (through the messianic seed):

And their seed shall be known among the

Gentiles, and their offspring among the

people: all that see them shall acknowledge

them, that they are the [Messianic] seed

which the LORD hath blessed.

For further proof of a Greek Messianic line, see the following article: ⬇️

God is Called by a Gentile Name


Conclusion

Why is the New Testament written in Greek? It’s not because it was the lingua franca. If that was the case, we would expect the Dead Sea Scrolls to be written predominantly in Greek. Yet they were written in Hebrew for the most part. No! It has to do with the identity of the Messiah! Why does the literary Christ call himself the alpha and the omega (referring to the first and last letters of the Greek alphabet)? Why is John on the Greek island of Patmos to proclaim the testimony of Jesus on the Lord’s day? It isn’t because he is in exile. That’s an old wive’s tale… There is much much more that I obviously cannot reproduce, here, due to time constraints.

‘all the Gentiles … are called by My name,’

Says the LORD (Amos 9:12 NKJV).

Flower Child 🌸💐💃🏼🌺🌼🐝 March 1971 - when I was a free spirited little hippie gal, all of 19. My boyfriend of 8 months, George Richard Wright Bush Jr., was taking my picture in front of the house he shared with Gunnar Hansen. It was on Avenue G in Central Austin, near the UT campus. Gunnar and I were sworn enemies. He was relentless in making sure I was left out while he and George went out to hunt chicks, drink beer, and smoke pot. George was quite easily encouraged in all three cases. After 13 months with philandering George, the incessant liar, I’d had my fill. I got out the back, Jack, didn’t look in the rearview, and happily lost track of both of them. George would try to talk to me on campus, but I was done. I’d taken the cure. Ah, love. Good riddance I said. I hoped.

This was two years and four months before Gunnar’s and my paths would cross again. It was on July 18, 1973, the first day on the set where we were beginning filming what would become the cult horror classic, "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre," 1974. The TCM cast, crew, producers, et all were gathered in Quick Hill, just outside Austin, Texas, at what would be called, “The Sawyer house”. It was located across a dirt road from what we came to think of as “the old Hardesty house”.

I was in for a big surprise that morning. Unbeknownst to either Gunnar, or myself, we'd both been cast in this little non-union (aka ’scab’) local horror film, "HEADCHEESE”, a working title. I was standing outside the Sawyer house on that muggy, hot Texas morning, chit-chatting with my acting colleagues, ‘Sally’, ‘Kirk’, ‘Jerry’, and ‘Franklin’ (you know them). We were getting to know one another. We were all dressed in our costumes, all our own clothes that they’d picked out from different outfits we’d brought from home for them to choose from, for us to wear in the film, a strictly low-budget affair. Nearby, parked in the yard of the Sawyer house, was the Vortex RV/trailer/office, a no frills, no AC job, where we were soon to sign our first contracts. Everyone was pretty excited and a bit lost.

Producer-writer, Kim Henkel, stuck his head out the open RV door and excitedly called over to me, “Hey, Teri!! Come over here! I want to introduce you to 'Leatherface!” OK, I’m ready. Kim seemed thrilled, proud as punch for us to meet. As I stepped inside, I made my way down the narrow aisle, walking toward a very large figure, a man with a head full of brown curly hair, who was sitting with his back to me. He took up one of the two banquette seats. Someone was seated across from him, but I can’t remember who. As I got even with him, I noted he was almost as tall sitting down as I was standing up. This guy was big. I was feeling an eery sense of deja vu. Kim said, “Leatherface, meet Pam!” Ta-da! He turned toward me and cocked his head to look at me, both of us prepared to say, “Hey, nice to meet ya!!” Instead, we both looked at one another in sheer horror. We each jerked back with our mouths wide open. Simultaneously, we both blurted out, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE??!!!” They call them "excited utterances."

Well, we got through the moment, gathered our wits, quickly cooled our heels, and shared little with those around us. (Ai-yi-yi!! What have I gotten myself into? 😱) Toward the end of the day, on a break, we had coffee together. Turns out, George and Gunner had had a falling out. George had parted the G-Avenue house owing Gunner money, just as good ol’ George had also owed me money when we’d parted.

It would be grossly unfair to posterity not to list GRWB’s many good qualities. Gunnar would want me to do that. Over the years, they managed to reconcile. In 2012 Gunn invited me to meet him at El Mercado in South Austin, to interview me for his book. At the end, he asked if I ever talked to George, and had a few choice tidbits to tell me… but that’s a whole other story!

GB and I moved back in together after he moved from Ave G, however he never told me why he left Ave G and Gunn, or even that they’d had a falling out. He could be sneaky! All I knew was that I didn’t have to ever see my sworn mortal enemy, Gunnar Dang Hansen, ever again! Pretty sure GB moved out at the end of the spring semester of ’71, (after that picture above taken of me at their house). Then, we moved back in together (again!) to a cool house in Tarrytown in Austin.

GRWB was charming, imaginative, smart, witty, spontaneous, creative, LOVED good music, laughing, good fabric, cashmere sweaters, had style, panache, exquisite taste, was thoughtful, kind, crazy/wild, sweet, positive, complimentary, expert at apologizing, remorseful, loving, adventurous, and a true dreamer. We had tremendous chemistry and loads and loads of fun times together. We went everywhere together, went to Willie’s first picnic together in ’71. I believe we broke up 13 times in 12 months, usually getting back together within 48 hours. He was talented, witty, and, he had an absolute genius for finding new places for us live.(~_*).

As for Gunnar and I, we kicked heels, and fortunately, had a great time filming our scenes together. We buried the tired old proverbial hatchet, and the rest, my friends, is history.

Thanks for reading.

Sending love to all.

Rest In Peace 🥀🌹🥀 Gunnar Hansen 1947-2015 George R.W. Bush Jr. 1945-2017
