"Make sure you're where less trouble is rife

Woes are fleeting

Blows are glancing

When you're dancing

Through life"

Since Avatar The Last Airbender got remade in live action so it could be more like Game of Thrones, they should remake Game of Thrones in animation so it can be more like Avatar The Last Airbender.

#avatar the last airbender #atla #game of thrones #a song of ice and fire #asoiaf #avatar #the last airbender #netflix avatar #do thrones as an anime with nothing but filler until grrm finish the books #so about forever

ok so this is Extremely specific but it's the middle of the night and i can't stop thinking about it: anyone who was/is involved in the les mis fandom, did i hallucinate the enjolras cosplayer who made a fan novel and also a fan film and then later was exposed for cheating on his partner, divorcing them and abandoning his child with cancer to go and become a jewish lawyer or was that something that actually happened

#ramble #pLEASE this is bugging me so much i remember him from my theatre kid teen years and i cannot for the life of me remember his name #i've been on some cold medicine that's basically a horse tranquiliser for the past couple of days and it turns my brain to soup #i'm on a 'can't remember the name of the song' type google trip rn except nothing is working bc this is something like 5 people know about #is this COMMON KNOWLEDGE pls help #i think it was a short film i know for a fact he wrote a book bc i remember wanting to get it at the time #he was blonde that's all i remember #edIT I CAN'T REMEMBER IT BUT HE HAD A SUPER FANCYPANTS SURNAME AND I'M P SURE HIS MUM WAS QUITE FAMOUS???#that's not a dig btw my surname is pendragon i can't say anything

this is how that scene went right

#tsoa patrochilles #tsoa achilles #tsoa patroclus #tsoa #patrochilles #briseis #tsoa briseis #the song of achilles #all of achilles’s stats are cracked except for self perception #accidentally drew a really twinky Patroclus #I can only post lighthearted things about this book #otherwise the angst will kill me

"Have you no more memories?"

I am made of memories.

"Speak, then."

#qsmp fanart #that quote is from The Song Of Achilles #beautiful book #HUGE spoiler warning #in the last scene of the book patroclus and thetis are sitting together at achilles' grave watching the sunset #patroclus has just finished recounting the entirety of his life with achilles to thetis #and despite how much the two hated each other; and despite how much disdain thetis had for patroclus for being a human #for the first time in her life thetis understands how much those two meant to each other and how much achilles loved patroclus #and so she lets patroclus travel to the next world to be with him; she sends him off so they can be together #“go” she says. “he waits for you.”#that's basically what I'm thinking of here #an AU wherein which Fit and Madagio find themselves in each others' paths again and Madagio sees that Fit's grief hasn't swallowed him whol #Madagio is curios because he has never understood how to deal with grief in a way that isn't revenge #and asks about it #he asks about the rosebushes and the goggles #and after the two sit for days in a far-out reach of the wasteland; fit talking and madagio listening #madagio decides maybe he can spare the time and effort. maybe he can find a way to reunite fit with pac and ramon;#even if it's just for a minute #qsmp #fitmc #fitpac #madagio #qsmp madagio #54625art #holy shit sorry for yappin so much #mcyt #mcytblr

My favorite scenes from The Odyssey (books 18 to 21)

Odysseus fighting a random beggar being its own book was not something I expected to enjoy this much when reading The Odyssey, but here we are.

#the odyssey #odysseus #penelope #odypen #telemachus #athena #eurymachus #antinous #irus #aka the beggar #eurycleia #anyway I've read the odyssey three times now (Emily Wilson's translation twice) it's become a hyperfixation #there are so many scenes I like that I'd probably have to draw the entire story #like I have several in book 1 alone #examples being the olympain gods waiting for poseidon to go to some party in ethiopia just so they can make a decision without him #telemachus telling his mom not to stop their bard (aka personal dj) from singing a song about his father's death #keep in mind he says that the bard is free to sing about whatever he wants while in a previously it was mentioned that the bard was forced #in book two (in think) Telemachus calls the nobles for a meeting and then throws the “speaking staff” to the floor #and proceeds to trauma dump #back to book one: Athena making some long excuse of how she is totally a human man and immediately transforms into a bird #in front of Telemachus' face #all of this and its not even halfway through the Telemachy

“I could recognize him by touch alone, by smell; I would know him blind, by the way his breaths came and his feet struck the earth. I would know him in death, at the end of the world.”

#i want madeline miller to write a book about them #i would be traumatized for life #they are the biggest tragic love story of all time #merthur #song of achilles #bbc merlin #merlin #merlin fandom #arthur pendragon #bradley james #colin morgan #the once and future fandom

As much as I adore conlangs, I really like how the Imperial Radch books handle language. The book is entirely in English but you're constantly aware that you're reading a "translation," both of the Radchaai language Breq speaks as default, and also the various other languages she encounters. We don't hear the words but we hear her fretting about terms of address (the beloathed gendering on Nilt) and concepts that do or don't translate (Awn switching out of Radchaai when she needs a language where "citizen," "civilized," and "Radchaai person" aren't all the same word) and noting people's registers and accents. The snatches of lyrics we hear don't scan or rhyme--even, and this is what sells it to me, the real-world songs with English lyrics, which get the same "literal translation" style as everything else--because we aren't hearing the actual words, we're hearing Breq's understanding of what they mean. I think it's a cool way to acknowledge linguistic complexity and some of the difficulties of multilingual/multicultural communication, which of course becomes a larger theme when we get to the plot with the Presgar Translators.
