I had made the cover art for this a bit ago. This is for an upcoming animation project of mine :3

Stay tuned?? Maybe?? It's gonna be exciting to do at least!!!

1, 4 and 5 for the "get to know your author" ask?

Thank you:D

1) is there a story you’re holding off on writing for some reason?

Hm, not as much as holding off, as not being able to gather enough spoons currently to write at any sort of acceptable speed. I want to write that "LWJ went back in time and killed JC in a moment of stupidity and then has to deal with it" but that's a bit more nuanced than what I usually write so it will require more care and skill that I currently have in stock:(

4) Favourite character you've written?

That would be Jason Todd, in my English writings. In my old Polish fic, it would be probably an inept guardian angel Saturnin.

5) Character you were most surprised to end up writing?

That would be Ra's al Ghul, 100%. I had no idea he would prove to be so fascinating as a pov and how much fun it would be to try and get into his head!

Angsty little vent through the medium of Sasha Waybright ft. Actual notes from my diary when I was fourteen.

‘Tis the season for me to get progressively more cranky about all the christmas shit everywhere

I mean, am I part of the problem? My family celebrates a holiday we call Christmas, with a tree and presents and a feast. I bake the cookies my grandmother used to bake. None of us are even remotely Christian, but we call the holiday that because it’s cultural, and a couple of my grandparents were so my folks grew up with it. I like having a winter holiday. I like passing the lights around the tree to my dad while I’m up on a stepladder. I like an excuse to sit by the fire with my sister.

But the presence of all this Christmas crap in public— every shop is full of candy cane sweaters and Tis The Season and red and green and the Grinch and that Will Ferrel movie— is so oppressive. It’s the middle of November and there’s Christmas carols on all the radios. I think my parents were pretty good at shielding me from it as a kid, but this country is so damned(ha) Christian, and the older I get the more I feel like I can’t breathe. There are always cross necklaces in the mall tween-jewelry shop. There aren’t any other religious symbols. I’m an atheist and I don’t even feel the need for there to be a symbol for me, it’d just be nice if there were options so it didn’t feel like “well of COURSE this applies to everybody”.

I’ve said before I don’t want to throw the baby out with the bathwater. I love the holiday we celebrate. But the more viscerally discomfited I become by the horde of wise men and elves and santas, the weirder I feel calling it Christmas.

I wish it didn’t have to matter to me. Other people believe in god, I don’t, that’s their business and mine separately, who cares. But with the your-body-god’s-choice bullshit coming over from conservative Christianity, the evangelical apocalypse “allow climate change so the end times will come” lunacy that’s actually working its way out of the fringe and into the mainstream, I just feel more and more afraid. The cultural assumption of Christianity feels like it’s bearing down on me from all sides.

I know, I know, cry me a river atheist white bitch. We’re pretty acceptable targets for shitting on. But on my own blog, under a cut, I can talk like I’m a person whose experience matters.

Tagged by the complete dreamboat @maruchanishere to post a selfie (ages ago I’m bad at the tagging game). So here’s a cozy one.

Tagging the following beautiful humans to share a selfie whenever they feel up to it: @sailor-egg, @palmerpink, @tim-ee-sis, @flyfella, @eeejay, @triforcekeyblades, and @imexican.

[scaryscarecrows]

Antoine: Highly praiseworthy, priceless one. Antoine is named entirely for an officer of Napoleon, though he developed his ride-or-die tendencies later.

Frank: Free. I was thinking of M*A*S*H at the time, though given that 'Frank' is a family name for him (the first Frank was the first landowner in their family!) that...fits well.

Mark: Warlike. (Many Marks I have known are dickish. Maybe that's why.) Mark is a placeholder name for me, it's just this time, it stuck.

Trent: The flooder. 'Trent' just seemed like a good name for a Big Dude.

Jimmy (James): the supplanter. Line of sight, guys. I was literally looking at my Captain America/Winter Soldier Pops at the time.

Riley: either 'woods clearing' or 'courageous/valiant'. I just liked the name, but honestly, the second one fits.

Kitty (Katrina): pure. No. Kitty's name was chosen in conjunction with Jonathan Crane's--if he's named for Ichabod, she's named for Katrina. Literary Katrina dodged a bullet, though. Ten kids and moving out west? FUCK that.

Dove: bird of peace. Dove's name was chosen for two reasons: one, to fit in with Oswald's fondness for birds and two, because 'soiled dove' is old-timey slang for 'sex worker', her old job and a massive shaping force of her life today.

Not mine, but still fun:

Jonathan: gift from God. UH-UH. He is a scourge unto your home, as is his right.

Jason: healer. Maybe? He healed Bruce, a little, from being overly angsty without Dick around. And then look what happened, so I don't know.

Tagging anyone who wants it, because I'm doing this right before work and I gotta cruise!

OC Name Meanings

I've done this before agessss ago, and I have since added some OCs so I figured I would do an updated version!

Rules: Share your OC's full name and the meaning/origins behind it. Then (if you'd like) include any insights or symbolic meanings about their name you wish to share, or just your reasons for giving them the name that you did!

Please note that I am not a name expert, and most of these origins and meanings were found through simple internet searches, so apologies if any of them are wrong!

Tagging: @cillmequick @moral-terpitude @red-riding-wood @shelbydelrey @rysko @brummiereader @peakyswritings @look-at-the-soul @runnning-outof-time @cassieuncaged @peakyltd @call-sign-shark @zablife @scaryscarecrows and anyone else who would like to participate!

Lucy Josephine Winters (Peaky Blinders)

Lucy Origin: Latin Meaning: light, light bringer

When choosing Lucy's name, I was looking for something that would fit with the time period, but also had a modernness to it, since Lucy is a very modern woman for her time. I've loved the name for a long time, so it was an easy choice. I also really loved the meaning of "light bringer," since she very much is a continued source of happiness for Tommy throughout the series, and generally has a very warm, bright presence. I also liked the little nod towards Lucifer in her name! (Had I not already had an OC named Lily, I would have considered using that as well as a reference to the demon Lilith, who Lucy in many ways parallels).

Josephine Origin: Hebrew Meaning: Jehovah increases

I'm gonna be completely honest here, I picked this name primarily because I liked the way it flowed with her first and last name, and it fit in the time period her series takes place in. It also felt like the type of name her father, a deeply religious man, would have chosen to give her. He wanted it to be her first name, but her mother convinced him to use it as a middle name since her heart was set on naming her daughter Lucy.

Winters Origin: German, Dutch Meaning: winter, cold season

I've been in love with this surname since I first started making OCs as a kid, and I was ecstatic to finally get the chance to use it. I wanted something that would connect Lucy to nature, and I particularly like the imagery that her surname invokes, and how the harsh cold of winter somewhat offsets the softness of her first name. Lucy certainly has a softness and warmth to her, but she can also be cold and incredibly merciless, particularly to her enemies. At the same time, there is a beauty to winter, despite the cold, that I think also fits Lucy and her unique, almost untouchable beauty well.

Vanessa Charlotte Sullivan (The Dark Knight Trilogy)

Vanessa Origin: English Meaning: butterfly

I love the name Vanessa so much, and she was very much the type of character who popped into my head more or less fully formed, name and all. I liked the amount of nickname options it gave me, and the symbolism of the butterfly fits very well with her transformation at the beginning of her series, from an innocent, abused child into a psychopathic serial killer.

Charlotte Origin: French Meaning: free man, petite

The symbolism of this name was just too good to pass up: Vanessa is very free and wild in her inhibitions, and also very tiny (don't tell her I said that, though; she might stab me). I also think it's very chic-sounding, and Vanessa very much cuts a classy figure, especially during her time as a psychiatrist at Arkham.

Sullivan Origin: Gaelic, Irish Meaning: hawk eyed, little dark eyed one, dark eyes

Again, the symbolism here was just perfect. Vanessa's dark eyes are a very important feature, as is the way she is able, through seemingly just a simple glance, to understand so much about a person. Her observation skills are part of what makes her such a good scientist and doctor, and such a dangerous adversary should you end up on her bad side.

Alice Claire Emerson (Inception)

Alice Origin: German, French Meaning: noble, exalted

Alice is, despite her quiet nature, very brave, but I mainly chose this name because I liked to connection to Alice in Wonderland which I felt to be very fitting considering her work in dream sharing.

Claire Origin: French Meaning: bright, clear

Like with Lucy, Alice has a very warm presence about her. She's fun and sweet and just brightens any room she enters. She's Robert's primary source of love and happiness, and I liked how the meaning of this name conveys that.

Emerson Origin: English Meaning: brave, powerful, child of Emery

Emerson just flowed well with her first and middle name. It's another one of those surnames that I just have always liked the sound of, so I jumped at the opportunity to use it.

Daisy Meredith Preston (Dunkirk)

Daisy Origin: English Meaning: daisy, day's eye

Daisy is practically the embodiment of sunlight, which daisies are strongly associated with symbolically. Her warm, calming presence is part of what makes her such a good partner for Henry (the Shivering Soldier). I also used @henry-wilson's headcanon that Henry is a botanist, and therefore wanted to give the OC I planned to pair with him a flower name to connect to him in that way.

Meredith Origin: Welsh Meaning: great ruler

This is one where I actually focused more on the origin rather than the meaning. Daisy is from Wales, and so I wanted at least one out of her first and middle names to reflect that. I also felt that it flowed well with her first and last names, and fit the time period her series takes place in.

Preston Origin: English Meaning: priest, son of priest, farmstead

I didn't take the meaning of this name all that much into account when choosing it; mainly this was all about how nicely I felt it flowed with her first name. But considering her role in helping Henry along in his recovery after the events of Dunkirk, I suppose you could consider her almost a holy or redemptive figure in some ways.

Rosemary "Rose" Eleanor Mason (In Time)

Rosemary Origin: Latin Meaning: dew of the sea

Rose's full first name was really just a way to get to the nickname Rose.

Rose Origin: Latin Meaning: rose

In case you couldn't tell already, I'm a sucker for flower names. I love them so much, and I was just dying to use the name Rose because it's one of my all time favorites. Rose is spunky and a bit more rough around the edges than some of my other OCs, so I felt the imagery of a rose with thorns fit her very well!

Eleanor Origin: French Meaning: light hearted, shining light

This was picked less for symbolic reasons, and more just for flow with the first and last name.

Mason Origin: French, English Meaning: stoneworker

Rose comes from a very poor upbringing, and I liked how this surname reflected that. It also continued to represent her work as a Timekeeper, even after her escape from poverty, as she continues hard labor that it often just as difficult as trying to carve into stone.

Lily Elizabeth Callaghan (Platoon)

Lily Origin: Greek, Latin, English Meaning: lily, pure

This is one of favorite names of all time, so of course I gave it to my first official OC. The delicacy, both in the sound of the name and the imagery it encourages, works very well with Lily. She truly is in many ways a fragile, pure flower.

Elizabeth Origin: Hebrew Meaning: God's promise, God is my oath

Elizabeth is another name I really liked, and I always thought it would make a pretty middle name. I debated making it Lily's first name, since Lily can be a nickname for Elizabeth, but I ultimately made it her middle name. I admittedly didn't pay much attention to the name's meaning when I picked it; I just thought it was pretty.

Callaghan Origin: Irish Meaning: bright headed, contention, strife

To offset the extreme softness and fragileness of Lily, I gave her the surname Callaghan which, while maintaining the theme of softness throughout the name, has a bit more bite in its meaning. I liked the contrast between the meanings of "bright headed" and "strife" which I think does a good job symbolizing Lily's opposing natures. Lily is a warm, sweet person, but she's also a little standoffish and shy to an extreme that can come across as cold. The meaning of "strife" helps to convey some of her internal struggles.

I CRAVE ARALEYN <333 im in love with the way u draw em UGHhh

[d-parade]

Bro leave Alastor be 😭

It’s impossible to explain to people how even if the “asexuals can desire sex” statement is true, normalising it is harmful to asexuals WHO DON’T DESIRE IT.

Plus, Alastor is one of the rare and only few asexual characters in media. We finally have representation YET people just have to sexualise him because they’re horny bastards, using the above statement as an excuse.

It’s frustrating. Is it so hard to want a character that just doesn’t deal with sex in any way shape or form? Sure like majority of characters are like that already, but it’s because attraction usually isn’t relevant to the story, but they feel it.

Anyways Alastor, Sir Pentious and the songs are really the only reason why I’m watching Hazmid Hotel.
