Beloved Residents of Dirtmouth (And Quirrel 👍)

#hollow knight #elderbug #bretta hollow knight #bretta hk #sly hollow knight #sly hk #zote the mighty #zote hk #hollow knight nymm #nymm hk #hollow knight quirrel #quirrel hk #confessor jiji #my art #fanart #Oh the folks Dirtmouth; how you are able to enrich hope into such a bleak setting #Also hiiiiii I'v been replaying Hollow Knight recently!! I'm already at 20+ hours pfffff #And as a result I simply must draw the characters of the humble game I cherish so much hehe #This has also filled my mind with bees of various headcanons I've just made or I've had for a awhile but never shared #Major one I've had: Quirrel has deform lower arms; he was simply born with them and they don't do harm to his person #They can get in the way and get cut easily; so they're often bandaged for safety #+ Quirrel needs a cane/leg braces to help him walk because of serve leg damage caused by his overexertion while wearing Monomon's mask #In summary; the mask made is so his mind ignored the pain rather than actually get rid of it #Resulting in Quirrel never getting the *true* rest he needed for certain expeditions #He knew that risk and warning before but he forget later after his journey away from Hallownest #And for funnies: Bretta is a hypocephalus armatus!! Finding refs of them was quite the challenge so I hope I got the overall feel down #They have funky little back legs I don't think I quite captured here but the effort was fun!#I have way more for the other characters here but for now I shall have my mouth sealed until asked

i saw this tweet and found it interesting for two reasons. one is that some people base how good cartoon network would be to toh by how it treated su, and despite the fact that su’s treatment by the network was considered poor at the time, now its thought to be exceptionally good in comparison to modern shows.

two is how exactly su got impacted by a limited budget. a common criticism is how characters like connie, peridot, and lapis are left out of missions. but balancing a lot of characters is not only hard but also costly (extra animation, extra voices—it’s been revealed that the show is limited to a set number of characters per episode otherwise they’re over budget). animation mistakes are not uncommon since retakes cost extra. the entire reason the original show got cut short was due to loss of funding!

#i don’t know if pay rates differ per networks #but a.ivi and s.urrashu have said that they needed to work outside of su in order to make sufficient funds #it only makes me wonder what other ways su suffered from a lower budget #that we as the audience never got to see #in the vein of the too-little characters complaint #another part of that is that low-stakes episodes should’ve been abt the main cast instead of the townies #like last one out of beach city and too short to ride vs restaurant wars and kiki’s pizza delivery service #i definitely see that especially since that isn’t budget related #nor would it seem to be network related (even if cn had an ‘episodic episodes’ quota it could still be abt the gems #(another side note: /would/ cn even have a requirement that the show make episodes that can be watched standalone?#this is a question for the people who were around when su was airing #what episodes often got rerun?#was it the townie eps or the lore eps?#for example i heard that su once did a ‘peridot event’ where they just reran peridot episodes #which had eps that skip around in the show #did they even care about airing the story so that it made sense anyways?#id get it if the low stakes townie episodes were the ones getting rerun))#but i have such a boring view on that which is i think it’s simply because the creators like townie eps #like in interviews r.ebecca s.ugar has said she’s the type to be really invested in background characters #answers in interviews have been crafted in ways to hide what’s really going on though tbf #prime example of this is rebecca and ian saying the wedding being interrupted was meant to follow the common trope #when later in the art book they said that it was bc cn rejected the ep bc it ‘wasn’t interesting enough’#both could simultaneously be true! it’s a psychology thing though where people make up nice-sounding explanations behind what they create #in retrospect because they want it to be thought out in such a nice way they believe in it #the bigger problem is that not matter how many episodes there are of them #it can be hard for ppl to be invested in the townies the same way they are invested in the main cast #i’m sure that a million writers have made surefire advice on how to get an audience to care about characters #but off the top of my head i think it’s because 1. most don’t have strong motivations to get truly invested in #(exception is ronaldo but people find him too annoying to care about him)#okay i had more points and explanations but i hit the tag limit and idk if anyone is actually reading this so bye

I'm too tired to gather my thoughts cohesively on this but.

The Anakt Garden bears a lot of resemblance to the Garden of Eden, right? The landscape is an ideal nature paradise and the humans kept within it are expected to live in blissful ignorance and obedience. It's not far-fetched to say that a lot of religious inspiration was taken when making the Anakt Garden considering the prevalence of "gods" and worship in the series. What's more, there is apparently a whole subject in the Anakt Garden dedicated to religion.

Through this Garden it's almost as if the aliens are attempting to recreate or rewrite the genesis of mankind now that they have established themselves as beings of power. The aliens tend to "play god", creating artificial humans and modifying existing ones in order to suit their needs.

In past official arts, Sua and Ivan (two top students of Anakt Garden who know more about the truth of the system than they let on) have been depicted with apples. The same fruit that symbolizes disobedience and forbidden knowledge.

#alnst #alien stage #alien stage ivan #alien stage sua #i think a lot about how mizi lived blissfully ignorant of suffering and the truth #while sua who knew the true extent of alien cruelty simply lived alongside mizi and kept her knowledge secret in order to maintain a facade #i think about all the knowledge ivan has at his disposal. how hes able to do things and access places hes not supposed to #they're both completely aware of what had to happen and offered themselves in order to save their beloved from that fate #the curse of knowledge #its hilarious how im drawing these conclusions from completely unrelated official arts just HEAR ME OUT #para.musing

Alright i think the coast is clear, kanako integrity duo GO‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

I think they’d have fun sharing a half melted amalgamate body and have riveting conversations

#kanako integrity duo #very much inspired by the many many other stuff ive seen relating to kanako as an amalgamate taking on a lot of integritys traits #and i saw someone say once how the other fallen humans get resurrected #but not integrity because they simply had a sever lack of a functionable body to return to #so theyre just stuck with kanako now lmao #or at least i imagine theyve been stuck with kanako in the true lab for a while already #‘hey wait a minute…isnt this just chara and frisks dynamic of troubled kids ghost attached to cinnamon roll?’#🧍‍♂️#maybe #pedia says stuff #pedias art #kanako #lilac #integrity #asks

a lot of people will play dragon age 2 and they'll be like... whoa.... anders is truly a grey character who does both good and evil......

when in actuality anders blowing up the chantry was not only good but based, sexy, and inspirational and he has never done wrong a day in his life

#dragon age #anders #i refuse to believe the non-game added lore by dave gaider - via his tumblr blog - placing several hundred orphans in the chantry #there are no fucking kids in that building in the game. if we were meant to care about a bunch of fucking exploded orphans they'd be there #if we go just by who we the player see in the church a bunch of fucking shitty pastors got blown up #and given the chantry is the nonviolent part of a military org #theyre not like blameless or innocent bystanders lol #any attempt to put children in the chantry is simply an attempt to justify the violent oppressive theocracy they represent #by adding 'innocent bystanders' for anders to additionally kill #thus making him look more violent compared 2 the banality of the true horror enacted by this military theocracy's oppressive violence

I can't believe only now am i just realizing that biased flashbacks vs real unbiased flashbacks in monkie kid are animated differently

Any biased flashback is all told with still frames, stylized art, or only the main people in the memory moving while everyone else is still in the background

Think Shadowplay, think Azure Lions narration using the scrolls, think LBD's forced flashes of the future and past to Monkey King and Macaque, think DBK's story of the Samadhi fire.

All of those are either stylized, still frames, frozen figures, or sometimes all three.

Whereas the unbiased, real flashbacks are fully animated in the usual style. The opening of New Adventures (s4 ep2,) the beginning of The Samadhi Fire episode in season 3... they're animated like usual episodes. Everyone is always moving, things are always happening, expressions are changing, all that kinda stuff.

I KNOW THIS IS OBVIOUS I DIDN'T MAKE THE CONNECTION UNTIL NOW JUST LET ME HAVE THIS

#knox rambles #Monkie Kid #LEGO Monkie Kid #Monkie kid Theories #y'know i don't even know if this is true or not i'm just grasping at straws to help me identify what to believe and what not to and i have #decided anything that is not fully animated i will simply take as a chracters opinion and not fact #LET ME HAVE THIISSSSSS

visenya had a husband and a kid meaning she clearly had sex eith him she’s bi

i do not know how to tell you this but long ago like especially in the feudalism times (where the entire paradigm revolved around using women and their potential future children as social currency between families) but even still today women have not always had control over who they married and who they had sex with and whether or not they had kids. if you’re coerced into marriage with someone because it’s your “duty” and then you have their child out of political necessity does that 100% determine who you are forever. come on now

#asoiaf #also it just simply is not that serious. i will call a fictional character a lesbian and then everyone wants to go do gold star discourse?#develop a hobby. improve your community. clean your room or something #does fucking a man once consensually mean you can’t ID as a lesbian later? i don’t even think that’s true

What do you think is the most character accurate fic you've ever read??

Ever read? That's an impossible question lmao. I have been reading fanfics since i was twelve. I have read fanfics I don't even remember 🫡

Obviously it's a subjective question to begin with but part of the fun of fanfic to me is exploring different avenues for characters according to different author's preferences and putting blorbos into incredibly un-canon Situations. But in a lot of those settings what is "in-character" is even more thrown asunder because it's so far removed from anything that would even remotely happen in canon.

I guess what I mean by that is a lot of the fics I read and love don't necessarily align with my personal ideas of/headcanons for a character, yet still remain "character accurate" in my esteem, if you will (I'm thinking, for example, of that one Gay!Roy fic which is EXCELLENT and incredibly in-character imo and yet I still don't personally think Roy The Character is gay. But even though that's generally not how I think of his sexuality I still liked exploring that alternative verse and still recognized that story's Roy as Roy. Does that make sense?)

ANYWAY. going to veer off the specific question and instead just list some miscellaneous recent(ish) favs (or at least ones I think were published after I made my last rec list):

Paperwork by @pghumfort (Roy/Jamie)

Tits Out! also by @pghumfort (Jamie/Keeley)

if anything could fall (it's the world that falls away from me) by scarlettroses (Roy/Jamie)

i came prepared for absolution (if you'd only ask) by scarlettroses (pre-relationship Roy/Jamie); I've definitely recommended this one before but it's SO good on character exploration, especially for Roy. really really complex and meaningful look into his brain. I love it.

I should know (what turns you on) by Dancey96 (Roy/Jamie/Keeley)

It's Fine With Me (if you wanna stay the night) by @shortcuts-make-long-delays (pre-relationship Roy/Jamie/Keeley)

screaming crying throwing up by @morethanslightly (Roy/Jamie/Keeley)

that four letter word by @izzyspussy (Roy/Jamie)

5 Times Phoebe Meddled in Uncle Roy's Love Life... by darkesky

An Invitation by Laurasaurus (Roy/Jamie, Roy/Jamie/Keeley, Roy/Keeley)

Not exactly Cyrano by @destinationtoast (Roy/Jamie/Keeley); I may have recommended this before but now it's finished!! go back and re-read it if you haven't finished it yet...it's so worth it!

Also the Gay Roy one I referenced earlier is so afraid that time will take it all from me by LikeAMovieIOnceSaw. Really such a lovely fic 💕

as always please read the tags and story descriptions and ratings before diving in to make sure they are right for you and your needs etc.

#royjamie #royjamiekeeley #jamiekeeley #ted lasso #fic recs #roy kent #jamie tartt #keeley jones #like. if we're being honest most post s3 r/j fics aren't perfectly in line with MY idea of 'in character' simply because keeley isn't there #in my personally decisive version of events she's literally never not going to be a major factor for both of them #similarly i read a roy/keeley fic that i enjoyed and thought was incredibly character accurate for them BUT jamie was written out entirely #which to me also felt very /out/ of character. like post s3 jamie is literally always a barrier to just rk getting back together IN MY HEAD #so its one of those multiple things can be true + different things can be true for different people + i acknowledge my own preferences #types of deals #but i do hope this helps nonetheless!

Wild how we know that Elizabeth Woodville was officially appointed to royal councils in her own right during her husband’s reign and fortified the Tower of London in preparation of a siege while 8-months pregnant and had forces gathering at Westminster “in the queen’s name” in 1483 – only for NONE of these things to be even included, let alone explored, in the vast majority of scholarship and historical novels involving her.

#lol I don't remember writing this - I found it when I was searching for something else in my drafts. But it's 100% true so I had to post it.#elizabeth woodville #my post #Imo this is mainly because Elizabeth's negative historiography has always involved both vilification and diminishment in equal measure.#and because her brand of vilification (femme fatale; intriguer) suggests more indirect/“feminine” than legitimate/forceful types of power #It's still bizarre though-you'd think these would be some of the most famous & defining aspects of Elizabeth's life. But apparently not #I guess she only matters when it comes to marrying Edward and Promoting Her Family and scheming against Richard #There is very lacking interest in her beyond those things even in her traditionally negative depictions #And most of her “reassessments” tend to do diminish her so badly she's rendered utterly irrelevant and almost pathetic by the end of it #Even when some of these things *are* mentioned they're never truly emphasized as they should be.#See: her formal appointment in royal councils. It was highly unconventional + entirely unprecedented for queens in the 14th & 15th century #You'd think this would be incredibly important and highlighted when analyzing late medieval queenship in England but apparently not #Historians are more willing to straight-up INVENT positions & roles for so many other late medieval queens/king's mothers that didn't exist #(not getting into this right now it's too long...)#But somehow acknowledging and discussing Elizabeth's ACTUAL formally appointed role is too much for them I guess #She's either subsumed into the general vilification of her family (never mind that they were known as 'the queen's kin' to actual #contemporaries; they were defined by HER not the other way around) or she's rendered utterly insignificant by historians. Often both.#But at the end of the day her individual role and identity often overlooked or downplayed in both scenarios #and ofc I've said this before but - there has literally never been a proper reassessment of Elizabeth's role in 1483-85 TILL DATE #despite the fact that it's such a sensational and well-known time period in medieval England #This isn't even a Wars of the Roses thing. Both Margaret of Anjou and Margaret Beaufort have had multiple different reassessments #of their roles and positions during their respective crises/upheavals by now;#There is simply a distinct lack of interest in reassessing Elizabeth in a similar way and I think this needs to be acknowledged.#Speaking of which - there's also a persistent habit of analyzing her through the context of Margaret of Anjou or Elizabeth of York #(either as a parallel or a foil) rather than as a historical figure in HER OWN RIGHT #that's also too long to get into I just wanted to point it out because I hate it and I think it's utterly senseless #I've so much to say about how all of this affects her portrayal in historical fiction as well but that's going into a whole other tangent #anyway- I am forever judging historical/fictional books that center around or heavily involve Elizabeth which do not highlight these things #ofc there are other things but these in particular *really* frustrate me #just felt like ranting a bit in the tags because these are all things that I want to individually discuss someday with proper posts...

To the untrained eye I may be off-putting and strange and even a loser but to the trained eye, I am a hauntingly esoteric dream girl with a poetic, mysterious aura and a hunger for knowledge.
