Study session...
Question: Do you go?
Response: Yeah. Time to learn about geography too, I guess.
In the end there's no point in staying - the only prize for winning this competition was clout. You both take up Sol on his offer, Dessa more enthusiastically than you.
It's easy enough to lead the way to the library but you fumble when it's time to find books on weather - you've only used Deema's before.
Sol pats you on the shoulder sympathetically and goes to speak with a librarian while you and Dessa find a table.
'You have a real talent for poking holes in solutions, Dessa,' he says when he returns, a small stack of books in his arms. He doesn't sound the least bit annoyed.
'I have to! Almost everything's written for you coastal folk. I make so many notes in my books I basically wrote them. You coastal folks have it easy.' She giggles behind her hand at Sol's surprise. 'It's true! I don't have the sea to moderate temperature.'
That hadn't occurred to you; you've lived by the sea all your life. You jot that down in your notebook.
'And altitude,' Sol says. 'Air gets thinner and colder the higher you go.'
'And if there's, say, valleys where cold air pools,' Dessa continues.
Sol nods along as he flips through a book. 'Rain shadow, valleys, basins... all things you look out for where you are?'
She nods confirmation.
They carry on while you flip through the book in front of you. It has more detail than you think you'll ever need, but you diligently take notes regardless. Who knows what you might need to know when finding Deema's samples?
An hour passes and the library closes. Your notebook is full of notes to go over... but you think you can also get your mittens finished tonight.
#polls#cyoa#I ripped dessa's name when I played dnd the other week#in another universe she's a 35 year old mountain dwarf with a massive axe#ultimately I ripped the name from someone I spoke to at work#I think she was a financial adviser#thanks dessa

sorry not to just kind of like crazy arkkpost again but thinking loosely about the notion of how, with greeza and chibb being dessa's former krewemates who went on to join the inquest, arkk could have feasibly encountered them later on (probably prior to thaumanova/when he was ~teenagery in age, although i guess there's a small % chance they somehow survived thaumanova which is its own whole fun drama can of worms). thinking about a slightly short, very bedraggled looking arkk being like (shaking them by the shoulders) Where Is My Mom. and then the Drama when thaumanova happens not too long after and takes them with it and thus some of his only connections/leads back to his mom with it. [rubbing hands like a fly, evilly] yessss
#some slight elaboration on some of my deranged ramblings:#arkk#my stuff#i consider arkk to be in his early 30s#or mid thirties idk he's around there though#theres a 20yr span between sylvari appearing and thaumanova happening#(and we know dessa entered the mists prior to sylvari being a Thing)#there's an additional 5yr span between thaumanova and when chaos fractal happens canonically#so that's marking dessa have been in the mists for 25! whole years as of chaos#u can generally assume she didnt like .... give birth and immediately split#so (noncommittal hand wiggle) i assume arkk was something like 6-10 when she entered the mists#this is also maybe foolishly assuming she enters the mists like right before sylvari appear#it could have been longer lawl#but thats my personal headcanon math anyway idk. thanks.#anet will never ever fill in these details and i kind of dont expect them to so it falls to ME!!! to do the math

We stand Upright Build fires At night Made on the sixth day To rest on the seventh And now we just try to survive
#今日の気分は#Rowan reminded me about this album so of course back into the hole I go#really just a series of songs to lie on the floor about. but that's like. almost Dessa's whole discography#the last chorus of this just. I am sinking my teeth into the instrumentation. it's GOOD. THANKS.#music#Dessa

"a bell to rise" as from velodrome by dessa. idk if it's meant to be referencing the pavlov experiment in the song or not but it seems like it to me, and it's also about sleeping. when i first saw the placeholder description you were using i assumed it was fluff, but all the snippets i've seen do not feel very fluffy, so to me it has the Vibes (obviously only as far as i can know so far).
Oh I am gnawing this like a bone.
First- the bells. The sleeping. I don’t believe my will’s quite free. Oh I’m having some sort of brainwave about this.
Now my initial reaction was a I’m-Not-Sure because literally every chapter title I’ve been playing with has been scraped wholesale from a variety of songs by The Wonder Years that found me at the right time. They’re angry, upset ‘what do I do with this broken piece I never asked for’ songs.
The vibe, since you asked, is a two-edged sword. As jamie settles into Richmond, his guard lowers, but with it comes most of the barriers he’d built up over the years, leading to small things triggering smaller memories that weren’t the worst of it, but he’s never had the space to process any of it, so there it fucking is. The first half of the ‘bell.’
But then there’s also Roy Kent, who’s the other bell here, because the only reason this keeps happening is there’s a stupid part in Jamie’s animal brain that associated Roy with being safe in his room with someone looking over him.
In other words I started with a cute idea (aww Jamie sleepy) and then uh. Made it sort of not fluffy at all. Oops.
Except the back half! The back half is pretty soft.
It’s like 1/3 soft!
Anyways back to the song, yes. I’m gnawing on the bone and the bone is telling me there’s something here. Something about how the back half is softer, so maybe the tempo of the music should change.
That said the lyric that jumped out at me most was I didn’t think it was contagious, which. Also fits what’s going on here with Jamie feeling like he should be immune to this by now.
#thanks for talking this out with me jack#or like asking questions while I ramble extensively#in my defense i got further on edits than I thought and this is a good brainwave to end the night#the 5+1 sleepy jamie pavlov fic#which yes I see it now. I see how that sounds fluffy#writing update#side note I love Dessa

So it's been a while. But I couldn't let James Fitzjames Finding Day pass without some celebration—thank you Doug Stenton, Stephen Fratpietro, and Robert W. Park for giving us this wonderful and terrible knowledge. I've made an emotional playlist of all of us currently experiencing whatever emotion this is:
Selected lyrics for each song included below the cut!
Strange Ships | PHILDEL
Strange ships won’t let me sail out Passed by the ice and stone now
2. I, Carrion (Icarian) | Hozier
If the wind turns, if I hit a squall Allow the ground to find its brutal way to me
3. Howling | Wild Rivers
Howling out here for the morning light I can’t sing no more
4. The Yawning Grave | Lord Huron
I tried to warn you when you were a child I told you not to get lost in the wild I sent omens and all kinds of signs I taught you melodies, poems, and rhymes
5. Sax Rohmer #1 | The Mountain Goats
Ships loose from their grins, capsize and then they’re gone Sailors with no captains watch a while and then move on
6. Long Wave | Dessa
Starve the guard dog And see what hunger does It’s easy when we’re well fed To talk of love
7. Achilles Come Down | Gang of Youths
Throw yourself into the unknown, With pace and a fury defiant Clothe yourself in beauty untold, And see life as a means to a triumph
8. Eat You Alive | The Oh Hellos
I’ve seen the true face of the things you call life The song of the siren that holds your desire Death, she is cunning and clever as hell And she’ll eat you alive
9. My Ego Dies At The End | Jensen McRae
Leave my body and my ego early Kill it kind with a surgeon’s mercy Claim I put it out of its misery
10. Who We Are | Hozier
Darling, we sacrificed We gave our time to something undefined This phantom life sharpens like an image But it sharpens like a knife
11. Devourer | Aidoneus
Beams of light, show me how to feel Light the gloam, find my Achilles heel I will welcome my mortality—let me go
12. Sound the Bells | Dessa
Go lift your sails up For one last swell Go lift yourselves up To sound the bells
13. Your Bones | Of Monsters and Men
Said goodbye to you my friend As the fire spread All that’s left are your bones That will soon sink like stones
14. Wildflower and Barley | Hozier, Allison Russell
This year, I swear it will be buried in actions This year, I swear it will be buried in words Some close to the surface, some close to the casket I feel as useful as dirt, put my body to work
15. These Bones | Azrai, Momo O’brien
It’s a savage sea we’re made to roam Every tide can turn to haunt us But the ocean reaches past these ghosts And I will always sail for more
16. By Way Of Sorrow | Cry Cry Cry
You have come by way of sorrow You have come by way of tears You’ll reach your destiny Meant to find you all these years
17. Gracestone | PHILDEL
When I open my final door I’m gonna sail much wilder seas than your ships were built for I’m turning into dust across that cove You know, I have known enough to not feel owed
18. Glowing | The Oh Hellos
You’ll rise, like land, pulled up at the sound of some strange commandment A moon alight, reflecting fully And I guess it would feel like rebirth, out of some kind of dying To see yourself so glowing
#terrorposting#the terror#the terror amc#james fitzjames#franklin expedition#stenton et al 2024#jfj finding day

» OS FILMES DE ROMANCE MENTIRAM — pedido pessoal
⟅17.08.2024 — eu sou péssimo com clean :') eu sou uma fraude, já ta na hora de mudar minha bio pq eu já estou me envergonhando a essa altura do campeonato ;_; eu não sei se deu pra notar mas tô tentando puxar uma composição mais jogada e menos reta esses últimos tempos, venho tentando sair dessa faz um bom tempo e estou praticando pra deixar as capas com aspecto mais natural. Falando sobre a capa, eu falhei em alguns fatores, principalmente com as cores e a culpa é toda minha pq eu sou uma ameba e sempre taco quase a mesma configuração para TODAS as minhas capas, dai elas ficam com esse fundo bem mais alaranjado :'') em minha defesa, laranja define meu espírito. Essa é minha primeira capa zosan, eu não esperava um pedido com eles (menos ainda que uma das minhas maiores inspirações como capista, iria aparecer pra me pedir capa) mas eu achei um amor, não parece aqueles filmes românticos que a gente assiste na sessão da tarde? Ficou fofa :3
Art by @themetalhiro, thank you very much for the permission <3

video description: clips focused on sokka and his relationships with aang and katara in early book 1, set to Children's Work by Dessa.
pray that i finish this whole amv one day 🙏 here's the sokka sneak peak. ignore the abrupt ending pls and thank you <3
#if this seems heavy on sokka mistrusting aang its bc the complete amv has an arc yk. its a whole thing#the vid parts here are still rough around the edges but the main pieces are there#I've tried a million ways to clean up the audio clip of katara at the very beginning#and it WILL NOT fucking DO IT#driving me bonkers <3 <3 <3#sokka#amv#kinda
