Well … God's punishment has descended from heaven. The winged wolf is angry that people who extract killer whale meat have injured his son. I warned you that there would be consequences.

I definitely should study the stormy sky better, but I think there is an appeal in such intuitive styling.

Hi there! Thank you for all the work you put into the infografics, they are amazing! Unfortunately, the Raw Data link doesn't seem to be working. Any chance you could bring it back? Also I was wondering what made you stop. Would you mind sharing?

Hi! Thanks very much! So, this was a project I did a while back and basically... Doctor Who just moved on without me really, a little bit. I still love it a lot but I'm not as in the fandom as I was. This project was really just intended to counteract the constant "Doctor Who never passed the Bechdel test!" posts I saw back in the day.

I do still have the raw data! Does this link work? :)

hi there! I was wondering, have you watched damsel? some scenes at the end felt like they were a direct response to GoT's awful ending. it certainly felt cathartic. sorry that this is a bit out of the blue haha, I just remembered following you back in the days of the finale airing and thought you might like it a whole lot.

I haven’t seen damsel, no! Maybe I’ll put it on my to watch list though. No worries can’t believe you followed me back then and wanted to share a better ending on another show LOL thanks! Hope you’re doing well 🤗

For the NY ask game - 1, 14, 17?

I allowed myself to assume they're all from general questions! :)

1. What emotion sums up this year for you?

I've been trying to figure out an answer for a while and I have absolutely no idea. It's been a tiring year, and a challenging year, a year of a few successes and a few memories that will be for life. Maybe the emotion to sum it all up is Quite A Lot Of Stress But Then Everything Turns Out Okay jshdkshfkdh

14. Shout out a friend (IRL or online) you made this year!

I didn't make any new friends, but I reconnected with a couple of old ones and it's been great! And I spent some amazing, fantastic moments with my closest friends, ones that will definitely go into my mental Top Life Moments compilation.

17. What would you tell the you from the beginning of this year?

(GIRL START WRITING THE FUCKING THESIS THE DEALINE IS IN 17 DAYS)

I'd tell myself how rewarding and wonderful it is when you talk about a very personal thing with a best friend and find understanding, and how much faster you learn things with others this way, and how much your own relationship with yourself can be affected by that, in the best of ways.

Thank you so much for asking! 🥰🥰

Learning to use different brushes... My dragon-drawing skills didn't get much better since I was a kid :D

[onlymyqueen]

You use AI bots? Come on now, everyone knows they steal from the artists, they suck :(

They recommended me this bot on Telegram that transforms photos in Anime style. I didn't know he stole from artists.

Thanks for telling me.

Day Two of the Loveless book club with @simuran​. My main activity today was doing my laundry and mending my clothes, but I did go in the evening to the nearby America-themed restaurant for a milkshake.

I love that place. The whole aesthetic is just so horrendous.

I got to page 156.

I don’t know. I feel like, at this point, the story itself is less interesting than what it’s doing to me emotionally. I already had a school-related nightmare tonight.

I said yesterday that these kind of realistic teenage stories always remind me of how very not normal my own experience at that age was. Today, I want to add that I am actually happy that eighteen-year-old me wasn’t in an environment like the university one in the book.

[simuran]

Day four of the book club with @oldtvandcomics!

Your castle ruins were cool as fuck. But I am not one to be one uped easily! Today I present to you — Castello D'Albertis!

I got to the break-up part, and it was sad :( But I loved the midnight discussion with Rooney and Pip, it was hilarious. "Genitals and embarrassment" skskskksksksksksks

The part I did not enjoy is where Georgia's esperiences reminded me of my own ://// If I'll have to forsake my beautiful bi dragon icon because this book makes me realize I might be on the asexual spectrum I'm going to be sooooo mad

Third in the row, for this fandom! Here is Stolas, as the Five of Pentacles.

I was not expecting to like that owl so much, but oh, well. Explanation for the choice of card under the cut!

Oh boy, not the funniest card. When the Five of Pentacles turns upright in your hand, you're going through a hard time. You have lost the sens of stability you used to have; it may be a lost home, a financial loss, or a broken family. However, you can already find hope in that the card only holds temporary effects: this shall pass. Apart from that fun start, you, little owl in your cage, feel isolated and alone. You feel as if you have been left in the cold; you feel like no one would bother to come help you in your time of need, like no one really care anyway. That's the trick: you're waiting for someone to come and help you (one person, really, one special imp), but really, you need to be proactive. Communicate with the people you need to to get out of the tough situation you're in. And don't let your fear of rejection stop you from reaching out and expressing your feelings.

Similarly, the Five of Pentacles suggests that you fear you don't have enough, you can't do enough, you are not enough. You're certain that because you can't provide what others (again, one specific other) need, you're going to lose what matters most to you. You have to train yourself not to fear for the worst, and hope for the best instead. Giving that crystal sure is a good first step, my friend, but make sure you communicate while doing so.

Reversed, the card indicates a end to difficult times. Rejoice! That stupid marriage is finally over! You may start to feel as if life is worth living again, which better be what happens in next episode I swear I'm out for blood there give those boys happiness. You might still feel as if something is missing or entirely out of place; on deeper reflection, you may come to realise that you have placed too much emphasis on your material wealth and have neglected your spiritual well-being. That might be how you've been raised- but not everything can be bought, and your worth is not determined solely by your social status. All you have to focus on is the thing that truly matters to you. The person, maybe. If you truly value something, the Reversed Five of Pentacles tells you you have the means to make it happen.

(@simuran I hope you won't mind me tagging you on this, but you did seem excited for it 👀)

And that's it for today! It seems like I'm really on a roll to draw the characters from this universe. Therefore...

Thank you so much and sorry for taking ages to respond…

Last song - One Last Song by Lord of the Lost

Favorite colors - a couple of years ago I would have said blue or black but atm I'm leaning into “every color has its merrits”. I like pink rose turning into dark purple when the night falls, but also the white clouds against a blue sky and the rich greens of nature, but also rost and wine.

Currently watching - Matrix quadrilogy. I'm not so much into shows, they do not capture my interest for long and I hate to do new things most of the time so I prefer to rewatch.

Spicy/savory/sweet - savory? Idk, depends on the mood, the food, what I had before…

Relationship status - I'm married to the bestestest, sweetest person on earth who's also a bucket of problems, but who wants it easy

Current obsessions - my job. I'm a workaholic, working in science where that's the norm. Losing the battle atm.

I'd love to hear from @simuran @king-of-kaoss @fuckyeahmhawkefenris @muse-of-gods @khalixascorner

Poison in the Blood: read the first three chapters for free!

You can now read the first three chapters of my book, Poison in the Blood, free on my website!

Read now.

"A very good book with interesting worldbuilding and a variety of intriguing (many queer) characters. Shae is Fucked Up in the best way possible always ready to surprise you. I love her sm." -@simuran

"Vivian is my wife and you are not allowed to hurt her." -@swifty-fox

Over a century ago the Plagues began and vampires emerged from the shadows of myth with an offered solution: trust them, give them control, and they’d help put a stop to the chaos. But even now, so long after, there are still those who don’t agree with the new system. --- Dustin Lockwood would give anything to find his little sister ten years after she was kidnapped while their family fled a dangerous coven that wanted them dead, or worse.   Shae Lockwood, living it up in London as a rare human actress, would give anything not to be found. Their family has been in hiding for over ten years from the coven where the Lockwood parents used to be famous and beloved actors. If the world finds out where they are, the fallout for the family could be catastrophic. But whose secrets and lies are the ones putting everyone in danger?

For the vidding ask, 2, 4, 9

Favorite fandom to vid for?

I answered favorite fandom ask over here with great detail and squee and links.

Vid you're the proudest of?

I have SO MANY that I’m so extremely proud of, but. What We Live For which is my sequel trilogy Finn/Rey/Poe vid of joy and love and adventure. I’m so proud that I've become so familiar and comfortable and excited with how I make vids. Sometimes I really can make the stars align to deliver the pure essence of the vid I see in my mind. Make it come to life so perfectly. This vid is a top example of that.

—

What are some fandoms and/or ships you'd like to vid for but haven't yet?

God that list is endless. Right now I’m really looking forward to vidding Wheel of Time (my Nynaeve vid is gonna be amazing). I also am excited to vid Syndey from The Bear and probably will be working on that this summer since season starts at the end of June, omg. I also have Black Sails and Foundation downloaded with hopes I can start my vids for that later this year, too. thank you for the asks!
