How about something Hobbit-y about spring?

Green daggers stabbed up through the inch of snow lining Bagshot Row. Samwise checked one habitually. It was growing well enough. Crocuses could take a little cold. His destination was further on.

Burlap shielded the roots of the sapling growing where the Party Tree once stood. He’d gathered the golden leaves beneath the cloth when they came down in March, but left the cover. Good thing he did! The skinny trunk looked desolate without the golden armor it wore all winter.

The Lady was the master of sun and wind and rain in that mighty forest called Lothlorien, but spring in the Shire was a fickle thing. He hadn’t expected so much snow in April. Sam was just a hobbit with an empty box that once contained some magic. Call him three kinds of fool, thinking he could grow a magic tree.

The little sprout had grown fine that first year, when the Lady’s Gift blessed all the gardens of the Shire. This year it was all down to the weather and what work a hobbit’s hands could do. The thin, bare, silver branches were covered in snow. But there, at the tip of one twig, a golden flower bloomed.

i've always wanted to know what catra can hear melog saying to her in these scenes since she's the only one who can understand them. i know this doesn't count since it's just me making up shit i imagine is the kinda stuff melog could be saying - except kinda silly hah. but i couldn't help it. had to make it. tbh, there may be other versions of this in the future idk tho lol we'll see~

it always pisses me off when fantasy stories have a cast of conventionally attractive humanoid characters with like,, different colored hair or something. like what do you mean your story is set in this amazing fantastical world with monsters and centaurs and aliens and sentient blobs, but your main cast is just a bunch of average joes?

@venndaai tagged me in the five favorite characters/five fandoms poll! I think some others did as well, so thank you, all of you! It was a lot more fun to think about than everything else going on right now, and I figured it'd be fun to see the results :D

Tagging @ladytharen, @brynnmclean, @child-of-hurin, @kareenvorbarra, @sqbr, @squirrelwrangler, @him-e, @steinbecks, @scholarlyhobbit, and anyone else who wants to do it!

I feel like the idea of “more practical” outfits is kind of overused in ND’s Spop. I mean, come on.

A GIANT cape with wings? Not practical.

Same goes for Glimmer. A body suit, a vest, and a cape? AND wings? It’s a hat on a hat in a hat.

No wonder her wings were so small. Those things were literally stunted.

Frosta wearing this 24/7? Not practical.

This scene. They BOTH should’ve gotten caught on branches and brambles. They’re both wearing long flowing outfits. Not practical.

Exposed tum? Great for looking good. And for stabbing. Not practical. No one living in deserts irl does this. They wear light and breezy robes for breathability and coverage. Shoutout to BFS for also not dressing appropriately.

Cutting holes in SPACE SUITS for hair and tails? Not practical.

Spinnerella’s… Armor? That hardened pink thing that’s only covering her left side and the swirls probably stabbing into her stomach and thigh? Not practical.

These bracers? Either too flimsy seeing how easily they are bent back, or if they worked properly Adora’s wrists can’t bend all the way. Not practical.

This outfit for a guard? Not practical.

Catra, Scorpia, Entrapta…. Hell, DT has TWO. All the windows windows. All the cutouts. I like them. I wear them. I think they look cool. But in this show? Not practical.

agree with all of this!

like,, i know a lot of people are just gonna say “it's a fantasy show, it doesn't have to be realistic!” and i can understand the idea of wanting your characters to have an aesthetically pleasing design but

1. that can be done while giving the characters a practical and secure armor (for example, general amaya from tdp looking hot as fuck while wearing an almost full set of armor)

OR

2. just change the characters into a proper armor when they're fighting. spop only does this ONCE in the entire show, and that was during the battle of brightmoon. and even then, they fucking erased adora's armor so that catra could scratch and injure her. what was the point of the armor then?

and catra doesn't wear an armor EVER, her outfit looks like it's made out of regular cloth but she somehow almost never gets injured while fighting. even when adora slams her into a boulder, she's completely unharmed except for a few scratches. i get that cartoons can't show blood but you can still see that catra isn't injured and exhausted the way adora is.

the main reason i have a gripe with this is because of all the fans saying that the original she-ra wasn't realistic enough. either leave the OG alone and just accept that not everything is perfect or realistic in fiction, or criticize spop the same way you criticize the original. you can't have double standards here.
