Okay no I need to talk about the book version of Howl's Moving Castle. I love the movie but the book has such a different vibe and you, yes you, should read it.
Movie Howl is a soulful and quiet. Book Howl is a drama queen and Causing Problems and has a long string of jilted exes and couldn't shut up if you paid him.
Sophie and Howl drive each other up the wall at the beginning and it's really funny. Sophie and Howl are (despite themselves) very much in love by the end and they still drive each other up the wall and it's even funnier.
In the movie, Howl has been ordered by the king to participate in The War, and Howl is avoiding it because he is a brave conscientious objector. In the book, Howl has been ordered by the king to rescue his lost brother from the Witch of the Wastes, and Howl is avoiding it by any means necessary because he is a cowardly weasel who wants to stay as far from the Witch as possible.
In the movie, the Witch cursed Sophie because she was jealous about Howl speaking to Sophie for five minutes. In the book, the Witch cursed Sophie because Sophie had been doing surprisingly powerful magic for years without knowing it and it was actually starting to cut into the Witch's plans. (Sophie does not discover any of this until nearly the end of the book, but the reader can start to pick it up much earlier and the way Sophie's magic works is pretty darn cool.)
In the movie, there's a rumor that Howl eats the hearts of maidens, but this is implied to be nothing but nasty fearmongering. In the book, there's a rumor that Howl eats the hearts of maidens because Howl started the rumor so people would stop asking him to do wizard junk all the time.
The book lightly parodies a couple of tropes from Western fairy tales. In particular Sophie has internalized that, as the eldest of three sisters, her "destiny" is to fail so that her younger sisters will look cooler when they succeed, which is why she's so resigned to the hat shop at the beginning. (Sidebar: Sophie's sisters come up much more in the book and they're great.) There's also a really funny bit where Sophie attempts to operate a pair of seven-league boots.
In the movie, the fourth and final location that the magic door connects to is some sort of black void / mindscape / time portal dealy. In the book the fourth location is Wales, in the UK, on Earth, so that Howl can visit his family, because from Howl's perspective this is an isekai story.
#also there are two sequels#sophie and howl aren't the focus but they're still very good#howl's moving castle#howls moving castle#howl's moving castle the book my beloved#diana wynne jones#<- also read everything else she's ever written#me#my text post

Several weeks ago one of my coworkers called me over into her cubicle and gave me a very unexpected gift. Her mother passed away recently, and she'd been packing stuff up at her condo to give to relatives and sell, so the home could be sold. The mother was an avid knitter and crocheter, and when my coworker came upon her stash of equipment, she told me, she "immediately thought of me as someone who might get some use out of it."
So, I have inherited a varied collection of knitting needles and crochet hooks, cable needles, sewing needles, and, best of all, now-out-of-print pattern books, mostly for blankets, because that was what this lady loved to make most. Plus, I also have a bunch of gauge swatches she made, pinned to little bits of card covered in perfect schoolteacher handwriting setting out the patterns they were made to test.
And also...
My coworker brought another bag, full of yarn and...knitted blanket squares. Her mother's last started project, before she got too sick to continue. And she asked if there was anything I could do with it.
It turned out, there are twelve completed squares, and I quickly located the pattern book they are from amid those given to me. It's a book of 60 patterns, meant to be put together however the maker wishes into blankets of 20 squares. I figured out which of the numbered patterns were already made, and selected eight more that I thought might go well with them.
So now! I am working on completing! My coworker's mother's last knitting project!
And I really am feeling very good about doing it.
#kidk says stuff#knit#i love making blankets anyway and these patterns are honestly cool#i already have most of the equipment i'd ever need but i still feel warm and fuzzy having this old gal's stuff too#my coworker thought of me ;__; she's seen my scarves and the table runners and stuff i have in my cubicle#she gave me precious things from her mother's beloved hobby because she 'knew i wouldn't let them go to waste'!#i feel very much like a human being and a member of a community because of this idk it's just nice all right?#crafts#blanket completion project

Having a "I've connected the dots" moment on why Zeus is so affectionate with Apollo, and I don't know why I'd never considered it before that Apollo's youth could be a reason.
Iamblichus, The Life Of Pythagoras (trans. Guthrie)
So there was this sentiment that young boys are the dearest to the gods, and the gods are especially attentive towards their requests. And since Apollo is a perpetual young boy himself, with Zeus being the one to grant him this gift in one version, it makes sense that Zeus has granted so many of Apollo's wishes. He spared Prometheus and Periphas upon Apollo's request even though he was personally offended by them. He agreed to suppress Gaia and Athena upon Apollo's request when it came to the oracular business. He even revived Asclepius to console Apollo despite Apollo's frankly disrespectful reaction to Asclepius' death.
Apollo might be fearsome, powerful, and even reckless at times but when he kneels down in supplication, all Zeus sees is his little boy that he loves so much, and he can't help but give in to his requests (well, most of his requests at least). And as far as the text is concerned, and if I'm interpreting this correcltly, Apollo's youth is interestingly tied to his helpful nature because besides using his own powers to help the humans, Apollo can also help them by supplicating to Zeus on their behalf, as Zeus is more likely to grant a request when it's coming from him.
#Zeus#Apollo#I'm also taking this as an explanation for why Poseidon and Hestia seem to be especially fond of Apollo#he's a very beloved god in general anyway#Apollo Greek god 🤝 Miquella Elden ring: being able to tug at people's heartstrings because of their youth#I think Apollo is very aware of this but he does not misuse it...he is very careful with the requests he makes#and that's probably another reason Zeus is fond of him#Also imagine being the lord of the universe and one of your weaknesses is “dad please 🥺” from your kid#<– this could very well apply to Artemis too as she is also an eternal adolescent and Zeus dotes on her a lot#the text itself seems to be saying that Apollo was depicted as a youth because of his philanthropic nature#and not the other way around#but from a story-telling / mythical world perspective the other way around makes sense#but anyway this was a delightful I've connected the dots moment for me#mine#apollo info#father dearest

More Agatha All Along Incorrect Quotes!
(except these ones mostly have no actual source and just came from my brain :) )
⚠️Warning for some mild sexual content and mentions of alcohol! ⚠️
Teen: So did dying and coming back ultimately make you less afraid of death?
Lilia, taking a long sip of her wine: No, but learning she sometimes calls Agatha ‘Mommy’ in bed did.
*the coven, doing some spring cleaning*
Jen, who is perfectly capable of lifting it herself: Alice, can you come move this for me?
Alice, wiping some sweat off her forehead: Sure, Jen.
Jen, watching her from across the room: Mmm. Delightful.
Agatha, whispering in her ear: Pervert.
Jen, casually watching television: I don’t understand why TV producers have to put those warnings at the beginning of the episode, telling people not to recreate what they see. I mean, this guy’s trying to parachute off his own roof so he can steal fruit from his neighbor’s yard. People aren’t really THAT stupid in real life, are they?
Alice (a former first responder), lounging in her lap with her eyes closed: Yes, they are.
Lilia, watching out the window as Teen and Agatha climb up to the roof: Yes, they are.
Agatha: Are you two seriously crying over a cartoon meant for preschoolers?
Alice, wiping her eyes: No.
Teen, rewinding their episode of Bluey: Yes.
Jen, stalking into the room: AGATHA!
Agatha, rolling her eyes: What the hell are you upset about NOW?
Jen: YOUR WIFE JUST BIT ME!
Agatha: Uh-huh. Sure.
Jen, brandishing her arm: LOOK.
Agatha, spitting out her drink: Wait, what the hell- Rio, you ACTUALLY bit her?!
Rio: Her perfume smelled tasty :3
Agatha: Kid, we need to talk.
Teen, sighing: Are you about to give me a lecture on consent and safe sex?
Agatha: Huh? How did you know?
Teen: I’m not stupid. Did you really think I didn’t notice that condoms mysteriously started appearing in the bathroom cabinets when I started bringing Eddie over?
Agatha: What makes you think the two things are related?! Those could have belonged to anyone in this household!
Teen: YOU’RE ALL LESBIANS, AGATHA! WHOSE WOULD THEY BE?!
Agatha, who’s incredibly drunk: Y’know what I love about women, Alice? Kissing’em. Loooooove it. My mom tried to beat it outta me, but she couldn’t. Still a girl kisser over here.
Alice, who’s also seriously drunk: Amen.
Agatha, wildly gesticulating: Smelling her perfume, grabbing her ass, feeling her grab MY ass…TITS…
Alice, nodding sagely: Good. All good.
Agatha: Winding your fingers through her hair, pulling her closer…
Alice: Losing me there.
Agatha: What, Jen isn’t into hair pulling?
Alice:
Agatha:
Alice:
Agatha: …I now recognize my mistake.

Mothra!!!
Here’s something more that i did for fun. When thinking about who else i should draw. I thought of Mothra. Ive already drawn her before though but i was more wanting to do her Showa design. Personally i love most of all Mothra’s previous designs especially the very first (& the more iconic) she first appeared in. i added my own small changes just to make her a bit more unique as to how id draw her. Not a whole lot though since i think she’s perfect the way she already is✨
I have some ideas as to who id draw next (that’d probably be more a surprise) but im hoping u guys my drawing of Mothra ^^:
[seems the next will be a Showa era kaiju, can anyone guess who???]
#godzilla#godzilla fanart#kaiju#toho kaiju#mothra#showa era#showa retro#showa kaiju#MOOTHHRRAAAAA!!!!#she’s so pretty aaaaa#i love Mothra#i love her design#Showa Mothra my beloved#she makes me so very happy fr#i love this a lot#fanart#digital art#artists on tumblr

The journey
#persona 3 reload#ryomina#shuyuka#aikoto#minaliz#this is basically how I interpret their relationship dynamics too!#ryoji sort of pulls the protag in his direction and leads him the way (he also goes through the same fate that's to come before he does)#with yukari you go side by side-she wishes to stick around with you and spend time together and she is really is there for you.#and aigis personally felt like a successor/pupil-like figure to me#she learns from you and gains her own life from it.. she felt like a daughter or a younger sibling in terms of you being the one that gives#as for elizabeth she's a surprise that barges in#she's very goofy and silly and I love that#I personally feel these four are the ones that the mc left the greatest impact on in terms of their identity as a character#the rest of the group were also greatly influenced by him but these four - he changed their lives so much and became their most beloved#doodle#persona 3#persona#minayuka

Beautiful promethea moth I managed to untangle some cobwebs from last night :) she stuck around where I put her for a while to rest and recover, and was sent on her way just now! At first I mistook her for a cecropia, but after a little more digging (and the help of some sunlight) I found that she more closely resembles a promethea :D I love her and I hope she enjoys the rest of her little buggy life <3
#shes so pretty!!!#my sister called me out to see her last night after dnd#shes afraid of most forms of bugs and the little lady was chilling on the door#so she didnt want her to fly into the house#when I went to relocate her I noticed some webbing on her leg and very carefully removed it#my sister noticed she was still on the window I put her on and I went out to check on her#i got to watch her regain her strength and fly off into the sky :D#bug#bugblr#insects#entomology#lepidopterology#moths#silk moths#promethea moth#Callosamia promethea#bugs my beloved <3

Someone asked why my cat guy was in a bikini, and the answer is: Men and them can wear bikini’s too!
To demonstrate, here’s Lan Wangji and his brunch friend Elle Woods at their weekly summer hangout.
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#lan wangji#elle woods#not posting the ask for Reasons.#I personally do not and will not wear a bikini but it is very fun and silly to draw my sona in one.#It is also important that I introduce the Regal Legal Lawyer Elle Woods Into pd-mdzs canon.#Planting the seeds now so when she returns…there was some foreshadowing.#Do you guys think lwj would be a brunch person?#I can see wwx drinking 10 am mimosas. Maybe having a runny benny coated in hot sauce.#Lwj could make a good brunch spread. I think that would be the only reason he would attend.#To study. To learn. To immerse himself in the brunch culture. To make a nice brunch for his beloved.#Now…LXC…JGY….the bunchiest kings to ever order a cloud egg at 11am. That is *their* outing.#This is all extremely anachronical and me being a silly jester again. Jingle jingle jingle.
