Take my revolution 🌹

A long overdue redraw of an old old fanart from years ago. I've missed drawing my girls.

[awesomesauce-n-sassypants]

I love that a practically half-defrosted, feverish 60 years old man can emerge from a coma purely because his baby girl is under threat, and just... follow up with whatever deranged shit that was... 

That’s hot.

One completely untapped part of the Greco-Roman Riordanverse fandom, especially in fics that include the demigods getting technology is the amount of parodies of modern media Rick adds to his series, especially in TOA above all the others, and in the Senior Year Adventures.

In Wrath of the Triple Goddess, the show The Great Witch's Brew Off (a parody of The Great British Bake Off of course), is mentioned, so for the last two months I've been thinking of shows that could air on HephaestusTV. (Note, while I just reread TOA, I have a bad memory, and I know for a fact there are parody medias in that series, like I'm pretty sure there's an Instagod in TON, but there isn't a collective list and me a few months ago didn't think to write it down, something I regret already)

So, here's a list of six shows I believe have a chance of airing on HephaestusTV! I would love it if other people could make lists and add to it.

Disclaimer, I rarely watch reality TV, so some of these I haven't watched myself, and am basing my ideas off of my vague understanding of the plots. For that reason, my bolded explanations aren't in depth for any, to keep it consistant:

1) Dancing with the Gods (Dancing with the Stars) pros are probably nymphs, dryads, and satyrs

2) Keeping up the the Olympians (Keeping up with the Kardashians) note: I feel as though I've heard this before, but I don't remember where or why

3) Domain-ly Feud (Family Feud) instead of families, each team consists of gods/dieties with similar domains

4) Demigodly Ninja Warrior (American Ninja Warrior) Instead of Las Vegas, the final four stages are held in Olympus. Qualifiers are in CHB and Semis are in Camp Jupiter.

5) Say "Yes" to the Peplos (Say "Yes" to the Dress) a peplos is a garment worn by Ancient Greek woman, for those who didn't know.

6) The 100,000 ₯ Pyramid (The $100,000 Pyramid) note: I'm like 58% sure I used the symbol for drachma correctly, but if not, tell me

hello fish! what ballets do u associate w vallerina? (& if you have specific clips can u link them pls?)

Hi morgan!!! I love having excuses to talk about ballet, thank you so so much for asking :D

I think The Rite of Spring (original title: Le Sacre du Printemps) is definitely the most fitting. The music is by Igor Stravinsky and original choreography was by Vaslav Nijinsky, but his choreography has since been lost, so I'm going to link the Joffrey Ballet's recreation, with choreography by Millicent Hodson. It is set in prehistoric Russia, and is about the sacrifice of a young girl (referred to as The Chosen One) in order to bring about the spring. And well. I feel like that theme of being chosen for some sort of great honor that is actually incredibly horrifying is quite fitting for Val.

The whole ballet is only about 30 minutes, but the Chosen One is chosen at the 18:28 mark, and she begins to dance herself to death at about 24:20

I've noticed that a lot of people reference Swan Lake, when they do vallerina art, which I'd guess is probably because it's one of the tragic ballets that is firmly in the public conscious and there's that Black Swan movie, but you know what people are right for it! A person is forced into a shape that doesn't fit them, is made no longer human, and its full of drama and death. Odile has this charm to her that is so fitting for Val, and I think this variation works nicely to get that energy across:

Though I also need an Odette clip, so here's the finale where she turns into a swan:

However, even more fitting for Val, I think, is the The Dying Swan by Mikhail Fokine, set to Camille Saint-Saëns's Le Cygne from Le Carnaval des animaux. A swan song if ever there was one, a final bow for Val, trying to escape but not quite able to.

I think to close out my collection of ballet blancs I am legally obligated to also include Giselle (or, Les Wilis). A story about a girl who was wronged by her lover and dies, joining the ranks of all of the other undead women who were wronged by their lovers - the Wilis.

Paul Taylor's Esplanade I just think is fun, and the frantic vibes of it and the use of classical music are fitting for Val

Also for vibes I will share After the Rain by Christopher Wheeldon!

For the life of me I cannot find a video of Septet by Merce Cunningham, but that uses Trois morceaux en form de poire by Erik Satie, so I associate it with Val because the music that plays when she talks about wanting to be a ballerina is another Satie piece.

Anyways! That's a lot, hopefully you enjoy them, and thank you again for asking!!! If nothing else I hope more people can come to appreciate Rite of Spring as a Val ballet, because out of everything I do think that is the Most fitting

FUCK hang on im gonna throw this juliet variation in last minute this is fun too

I'm working on a fic and was like 'how in the hell do you make LINGUANG JUN the least bit redeemable?'. I mean, /Linguang jun/ who tossed a developmentally four year old Mobei Jun to a pack of humans? The kid could have died. And then I saw a translation of the extras. It describes lgj as mbj's 'young uncle', says that he 'wasn't that much older than him (mbj)'. And I just- its a hell of a lot different, a Scar type tossing his nephew to the proverbial wolves than it is for a maybe dumb, maybe petty, maybe developmentally five or six year old to shove their annoying technically-nephew-who-in-age-and-context-is-more-like-a-brother-than-lgj's-actual-brother into a situation that the text implies was more frightening than actually /dangerous/. And that- well I can work with that.

the constant temptation is to write a fic where cdream is doing Really Bad post-prison.  worse than i usually write him.  like, truly bedridden for a while.  and then get into the nitty gritty details of what it means to care for someone like that

[10ireland13]

Beginning/Previous/Next

[scoopstomyahoy]

thinking about a no upside down au steddie fic where steve and eddie run into each other years after moving away from hawkins, and eddie remembers steve and his fall from grace as king, and is kind of intrigued to see what kind of person he is now

and steve doesn’t remember him at all at first, because, look, eddie changed his hair again, and steve’s had a few head injuries (no upside down but i imagine he still went thru some shit with the party and with robin), and he didn’t really think about eddie in high school anyway, and he’s trying to forget about hawkins as much as possible (besides the kiddos, but they’re all moved out for college now, anyway) (obviously he lives with robin)

but steve is different now, happier, more open, flirts with guys, flirts with EDDIE, and eddie….. well, he wants to know more! and he tells steve he knows him from hawkins, and steve’s sunny little smile flickers a little, but he just apologizes for not remembering him and mentions he has some memory problems

and they get to know each other, and eventually as eddie tells him more (and maybe with the help of some yearbooks) steve remembers eddie. and. well. they like getting to know each other. and they like each other. and then they get together

eventually they’ve been together for a while, and eddie thinks he wants to maybe introduce steve to wayne, and he mentions he’s going to go back to hawkins for a long weekend (as he’s done a couple times) and this time he’d like steve to join him

and again steve’s sunny smile flickers a bit, but he says he’d love to meet eddie’s uncle, and… they go to hawkins. and it goes well— meeting wayne, at least, but steve seems a little on edge the whole time they’re there, tense when they drive in, fidgety when they go to the grocery store, et cetera. eddie thinks maybe steve is nervous about staying with the man who raised eddie, which is ridiculous, because wayne LOVES steve.

it’s not til they leave the town altogether that steve relaxes, and eddie realizes it wasn’t “meeting the parents” but rather going back to hawkins. and speaking of meeting the parents, steve didn’t ever bring his own up, even though eddie knew they still lived in hawkins. and the way steve glanced around whenever they went in public, like he was scared of getting recognized

and he asks about it, and steve doesn’t really want to talk about it, but he gives eddie snippets of it. people he wanted to leave behind in hawkins, memories that resurfaced, things he wants to forget

eddie goes back to see wayne sometimes, and the first time he doesn’t know whether to ask steve to come, so he just mentions he’s thinking about going to hawkins for some weekend and steve immediately starts making plans with him as if the invite is implicit. they go back to hawkins several more times, steve still tense and pent up the whole time they’re there

over time steve reveals more and more to eddie. everything that made hawkins hell for him, from the things he himself did in high school to the things people did to him. stuff tommy and carol and billy said to him. some of it is just typical high school bullshit (and oh, the nancy thing.) some of it is the tragedies steve went through, the horrors he had to protect his kids from. the injuries he sustained. more generally the homophobia that permeated the whole town, keeping steve from being himself. the lack of support in the indiana public school system for a high school senior who’s had two concussions and gone through incredible trauma.

his parents. the reason why steve’s mail is addressed to ‘steve buckley’ now, not ‘steve harrington’.

(that doesn’t come out until much, much later, and eddie is kicking himself for ever suggesting steve come back to hawkins.)

eddie, who hardly had an easy time of it in hawkins, is absolutely blown away by what steve had gone through in the same town, right under his nose. the entire persona that steve was trying to leave behind — the cool as a cucumber, unaffected, douchey mask he wore to hide all that he had endured. the head injuries. the emotional tragedies he had gone through. the way he had to be the rock for the kids even as he went through the same things as them.

he tries to tell steve they never have to go back to hawkins again, and steve is having none of it. he tells steve wayne can come visit them in their new city, and steve thinks that’s completely unfair to the man who had raised eddie, seriously, you’re going to make him come all the way up here?

and well i don’t know exactly what the ending is but steve is so stubborn about trying to love hawkins because it was eddie’s home and he wants to be able to go see wayne because wayne deserves to see his kid and eddie deserves to see his uncle and steve doesn’t want to be the problem :(

✦ Team A: Weakened build. Buzzer beater clear. Took some effort and can still be optimized better. ✦ Team B: Crit build. 1:31 kill. By far the hardest one for me this season, but also my proudest clear this season! First exclusive claymore, baby! Gotta use it! 😎 I have a lot of notes for this one so bear with me. General notes: - Basic attack combo: 3 basic attacks -> animation cancel -> 3 basic attacks. Extend to 4 basic attacks if the timing is awkward, like if it clips into preparing for a parry. - If Petro Golem does the dive attack at any point, reset the fight. - Healing up to at least 80% before entering Fury mode makes a difference. Worth to do it at the start of the golem fights, and right before shieldbreak. - Don't manually charge active skill, it's not worth it. Use parry to trigger it instead. - When not parrying, or active skill is down, perfect dodge is worth triggering for more damage and healing. - Hold off using support skill until in Fury mode for more damage. More specific notes: - First mob: 1 active skill ASAP, kill by 3-4s cooldown on the resonance timer. - For Petro Golem: 1 parried active skill out of weakness; 1 uncharged active skill and 1 support skill during weakness. - For Ignis Golem: 1 uncharged active skill ASAP; At least 1 parried active skill out of weakness; Oath and 2 active skills during weakness. - The latest that I can delay the last shieldbreak is 1:41 on the timer. The sooner the better, but not at the expense of healing up or lining up a good parry. I hope some of what's written above is helpful to any R0 AS havers! ✦ Team C: Crit build, only to match the fluctuation. I spent so much energy on Teams A and B that I overleveled this stage by a lot so I can coast. Easy clear.
