the labyrinth as defined by the american heritage dictionary of the english language is “the maze in which the minotaur was confined��. minotaur, as defined by wikipedia, is the unnatural offspring of a woman and a beast. among other things.
a demigod is the unnatural offspring of a mortal and a god. of all the profane and blasphemous things you could do, knocking up yours or someone else’s creation is up there. therefore if one is to be born, it must be killed or otherwise punished. yes, we’ve established all of this.
cinder is the child of daksari. not profane or blasphemous enough to have a child with a mortal, but enough to get her sorry ass imprisoned under miles and miles of what was just begging to be called a labyrinth. the only thing it was missing was the minotaur, of course. so when the youngest child of cadaver had a rather surprising run in with a very godless mortal on the moon of cassandra…. it all seems rather planned out, doesnt it? i cant help myself when it comes to references to mythology and video games.
a labyrinth and its minotaur.
what a terrible fate
#my art#demiking#promethea#if i was any good at environment art id draw a part of the labyrinth itself.... as of right now just envision any video game dungeon#thats close enough#though this labyrinth was not created by a mortal. daksari made it specifically to make getting to cinder impossible#you could spend forever down there. if youre jack you did spend forever down there#all of this specifically because tumblr user night8 said oh whats that in tags. imagine if i showed this initiative during job interviews#or home life

An odd meeting in the Night
Started here and here in case someone is into reading role-play I guess?
@zrii-the-orc
The unusuals manuscripts of the conversation between Elleth and Orc
I shall continue to write in my old tongue after all how many can read Quenya still?
I traveled far and wide, met wizards and Hobbits,saw the Sun come up for the first time after years of darkness and ice.
Grieved over Kings and Queens.
But yet I never met a Orc that doesn't go for the kill the moment it's beady eyes see me.
Would this just be me,I might not think about that much.
The Valar blessed me with luck and a silver tongue.
But it Zrii has another Elleth. A young naive girl,that thought traveling alone is safe.As if the shadows are gone!But I know there are not gone. Evil will preserve the same way as we do. Hiding
Oh Eru Ilúvatar is this a test? To see how far my kindness go?
Elven fairer, wiser and stronger told me many times that just Death can give those poor creatures Peace.
But as long as Zrii is kind I will be-
There are some rustling and shuffling in the bushes that stops the elven-lady in her writings.
But she didn't worry as she knew from the pungent Odor that whiffed over that it is her Guest of the night.
Greetings frie-Zrii !
Glad to see that my second bird survived your War-sibling.
I thought alot about you and your kin in the past days but I like to answer your questions first if you don't mind.
And to give you something to fill your belly and keep your mind at rest, I brought you some blood sausage and sautéed liver!
It goes well with this "black bread" that's what the race of men call it.
Give it a try! For me it is too tart and metallic tasting so it should be to your liking.
Now listen closely.
You will find nor here nor there a Elve of any kin that marks you different because of your gender.
*The elven women stares directly in your eyes,the silver light making you squint*
We are all Eru Ilúvatars children.
*She looked away and sighted heavy*
The race of men have some different beliefs depending where you look.
Why?
I don't understand either.
But they are short lived and marred by Morgoth since the beginning. The big black what your grandmother called him.
She must be powerful. None of my birds remembered anything specific even though they did found you.
There is great and powerful witchcraft going on in the misty mountains.
I never thought it would be a old Uruk but oh well...
It seems to be going both ways, as you come here alone and I don't think that has something to do with your kindness
*there is a knowing smirk on the elven face*
Do you know how to do magic perhaps?
Regardless!
My condolences to the passing of your brother. May he find peace in Mandos Halls.
Or where do you think he will go?
As you mentioned before that the Elleth would like to bath. Your right and that is very thoughtful of you.
For touching her hair...it is commonly known as rude to touch a Elve without permission. And we take much pride in our hair.
There are of course exceptions like if you are secretly a King, but that doesn't happen often.
Maybe show her that you mean well and let her touch your hair first?
After a good thorough wash please
Place the...bone charms next to her and let her choose. The same with the clothes your willing to give her. Before I forget!
Please take my cloak with you as a gratitude of mine.
*you receive a dark grey cloak with no adornments but the softest material you ever touched,so light ; warmth is spreading to your fingertips*
This will compensate any Clothes you might give the young girl.
You might want to hide it so that your Leader can't steal from you but the cloak should be unassuming looking enough!
*The Elven women soft smile wanes and she looks sadly over to you*
If you mind can you ask the Elleth what her name is again?
She should be calmer by now and I know of a few missing Elleths...
I also would like you to d-
*a small birds comes flying through the bushes its chirping sound aggravated in you ears, but what do you know? you are a orc all birds sound the same to you*
It is time for you to leave Zrii.
Go forth and go swiftly with the twilight of the night.
Until we meet again.
#Zrii the orc#lotr rp#this is role-play#dont like it dont read it !!#i had tons of fun writing this and drawing this picture#I'm going to color this one in the unforseen future#aka when my markes arrived#i never role-played before#but i played Baldurs gate#thats close enough#hope you like it zrii if not write me a message and I stop :)#i cant do this so often because English is not my first language ao this kind of post take a while#but if you don't mind waiting Zrii we can have a fun role-playing time!!

Summarizing the Sky Seasons, but I barely know what I'm talking about
Pt. 2.
Season of Abyss - a band of Scavengers/Pirates look for dark stones. While doing so, they accidentally discovered the ancient facilities where Vault members did experiments. Experiments where things went very wrong. The band of Scavengers accidentally unleash the horrors under the water. This leads to their deaths, and the leviathan escapes the facilities containment
Season of Performance - TWINSIESS MOMENT!! Season of Rhythm part two (2) BUT THIS TIME ITS CLASSICAL THEATREEEE!!!
Season of Shattering - HELL. HELL BREAKS LOSE. EDEN IS F■■■ING EXPLODING. WE ARE ALL GOING TO DIE. GLASS IS RAINING FROM THE SKY. WE'RE GONNA DIE. THIS IS HOW EVERYONE ELSE DIED THE FIRST TIME.
oh and BONUS POINTS it turns out the creatures of light who got absorbed by the shard ARE INFINITELY TRAPPED IN IT PURGATORY VOID STYLE. HELL NAHH!!!
Season of Remembrance - Things end poorly for the resistance against King Resh. Relive memories of civilians' final moments before they are arrested or killed for their disobedience.
Season of Passage - Coming of Age ritual where ancestor children earn their masks and learn the basics of elements.
There's theories that your success during the Right of Passage determines if you're a candidate for the Trials or not. But that's just a theory
Season of Moments - Old Man Yaoi
Season of Revival - Yayyyy new home base time, Aviary Village!!!!-- wait is that a sky kid?
Set up for Two Embers TV Show
Season of Nesting - Sky beat Splatoon in the "which game will have apartments first" race.
Anyways, its micro lore for Hidden Forest. It solidifies that Forest was the region based around Production, Fabrication, and Construction.
The guide seems extremely close to the elder- even appearing in photos together. Friends? Family? Lovers? Not sure.
But its finally revealed that Teth tolerates someone else's existence besides her own.
Season of Duet (speculation) - I miss my Wife Tails.
Also seems to imply that aviary village was wiped out from the shards
Summarizing the Sky Seasons, but I barely know what I'm talking about
Part 1
Season of Gratitude - Inspired off of the Festival of Buhtan! Just a season where they celebrate to give thanks and prayers.
Season of Lightseekers - A family of spirits try to collect the dwindling resource - light - so they don't fade away. It doesn't work.
Season of Belonging - A family gets separated before visiting their grandmother. They perish and their souls are scattered. By ringing a (dinner) bell, you remind them of who they are. The family gets to have one final meal together before moving on. (Thanksgiving themed)
Season of Rythm - Dude, we're getting the band back together!!!!!!
If you ask about the elder bird tgc takes you behind a shed and you're never heard from again.
Season of Enchantment - Spellcasters try to save the land using spells and the Lightseekers light, but ultimately their vessel crashes and they tragically die in the wastelands.
Season of Sanctuary - Not everything is canon in this season according to the devs.
The important takeaway is that they killed too many light creatures, had a sanctuary to try and raise the population, but then the sanctuary got corrupted too.
Season of Prophecy - To keep it short:
Essentially, it's the story of how a Sky Kid became the evil king.
There once was a prophecy where a child would complete ancient death trials and gain 4 elemental powers.
This ended up being Prince Alef, who then became King Resh. Lots of children died, and Prince Alef becomes all powerful. Krill get brought up here for the first time.
Season of Dreams - HELL YEAHH I LOVE FIGURE SKATINGGGG !!!!
Season of Abyss - a band of Scavengers/Pirates look for dark stones. While doing so, they accidentally discovered the ancient facilities where Vault members did experiments. Experiments where things went very wrong. The band of Scavengers accidentally unleash the horrors under the water. This leads to their deaths, and the leviathan escapes the facilities containment.
Season of Performance - TWINSIESS MOMENT!! Season of Rhythm part two (2) BUT THIS TIME ITS CLASSICAL THEATREEEE!!!
#thats close enough#probably#maybe#(not)#Whatever ITS FINEEEEE#sky children of the light#sky cotl#coatl rambles#text#spoiler#spoilers#i forgot assembly and flight so be sure to click on the first part INDIVIDUALLY if you wanna read about them#youre not missing much tho

love a character where anything bad happens to him and he's immediately like 'im gonna fucking kill myself i've had enough. this life is pain and agony and misery and i am so weary and tired i just want it to be over' and he's literally 15 years old. and every adult looks at him like 'what are you talking about you can't possibly be this miserable all the time' because that's literally how it felt for me to be 15
#im reading royal assassin now#thats how it felt to be 10-12 actually but close enough#i also love that he has to be constantly reminded that hes not a dog. also how it feels

self indulgent post canon papa au. don't mind me!!!
#mp100#metukikart#mob psycho 100#teruki hanazawa#hugging and snuggling mtkk compilation#comic#sorry im bad with names idk!!!#fuyuka stays most of the time with her mama and dad but visits and stays with teru about a thrid-fourth of the time and plenty of times#on holidays. yukito really likes him cuz hes psychic and wants to visit him with his sister often#fuyuka is showing sings of psychic powers. currently she can only see spirits and exorcise ones small enough to fit into her palm#and unmalicious enough that teru would let her near. if hes in the area.#anyways#hes not the perfect dad but damn does he want to be and thats one thing hes got going for him#hes glad he doesnt have to take care of her 247 but he would if he had to he loves her more than anything#and he loves yukito too but isnt close to him

10pm is a dangerous time to have adhd. You will be sitting watching a random youtube video essay and then u black out and are attempting a new craft youve never heard of before. The craft is completely unrelated to the video and you have no idea how or why you stumbled across it. You are filled with hubris. You have work tomorrow
#i dont have quite the right tool for it but i have something thats close enough until i go to joanns tomorrow#if ur curious. it is nålbinding#which was kind of the precursor to knitting#so. thats where im at with my life right now#bel speaks#i have embroidery projects i need to be working on....

DO YA THINGKU
for a twitter trend of redrawing miku as album covers!! i wanted to do one of my favorite single from gorillaz. Cover-accurate ver + closeups:
this was definitely the biggest thing ive drawn this year!! and a good chunk of it on stream. thank you everyone who tuned in!! it was loads more fun to make in company :]
#gorillaz#vocaloid#hatsune miku#doyathing#do ya thing#andre3000#andre3k#album miku#miku albums#jamie hewlett#admin draws#fanart#phew alright finally#i finished this late yesterday#it ended up kind of being a style study! i did heavily reference the body lineart for this bc it was gonna take long enough#without reinventing the wheel. but i did colors from scratch#im a very impatient person artwise but this was very satisfying to do and finally finish#i would say my reason for this was that i saw several demon dayz mikus since this trend started#but gorillaz has so much cool art! album and otherwise. so i COULD say that this was made with that in mind#but no. that only came later fkdgslgh. my initial idea came from overlistening to the 13min version#and really wanting to draw miku in a fake muscle shirt. and then it got out of control#hope you enjoy. and maybe not compare the texutures too closely i really had to frankenstein some shit here#phase 3 to 4 is when hewlett really starts going hard on the soft airbrushing in favor of cel and thats a MAJOR weak area of mine#so this was definitely a learning experience

mira !!! :]
#isat#in stars and time#isat mirabelle#isat spoilers#<- due to act 3 optional content !#the img might be being chewed due to weird canvas size oops ah well#one of these miras is not like the other#one of these miras doesnt belong ASFASFSDAFA#a majority of these are based on things mentioned / that happen in the house cuz i thought itd be fun to draw :D#so like the wilting plant is from gardening room dialogue#the poster with ppl holding hands and sparkly eyes is (i think??) from some SAPSAPSAAP dialogue in one of the first rooms#i tried looking around ISAT to see if it's also in there too but couldnt find it so uh correct me if im wrong if thats NOT an exclusive LOL#side note the 2 in the poster are some old nuz ocs isatified ASDFASFA#funnily enough tho they are from 2 different games if they actually ever met they would hate each others guts i think. hmm...#however both are also the most qualified to help with promotional stuff so theres that ASDFAFA#mira looking at her bonding proposals is sorta on the tin but#the fact that she has like right next to her while she sleeps in her dresser makes me :(#cuz to me it potrays how much theyve been weighing over her cuz of how close shes been keeping them with her vs putting them on a bookshelf#or something idk if that makes sense i dont have proper words atm#but uhhh moving on chalkboard is from one of the optional events#which i think is! important!!! i dont think ive seen many ppl talk about it but!! yeah!#however i too do not have words on it atm but!!! yeah!!!! moving on for now!#the 'mira' that is really just the change god is ofc from the change god event :]#aaand ofc the iconic finish from mira towards the king#and then some misc miras with swords for funsies tbh ASFAFA#but yeah! i like mira a lot actually but as with many things i do not currently have many words to properly articulate *why*#all i know in my heart of hearts is that she is near and dear and special to me personally#one day. one day i will be able to gather my thoughts in a cohesive manner but that day. is not today!#anyway tag talk over :]

if i was making the "disco elysium but its a young witch in the alps" game i'd have like only two endings where you actually find the cat and bring it back. ending one is you lean fully in to "dont question things, dont step outside of your comfort zone, dont ask why the village has no black people or jewish people or nobody darker than lightly tanned, just focus on the cute cottagecore vibes" where you trap the cat in a cage and bring it back to the neighbor and the neighbor goes "thank you! she gets out ALL the time, it's such a pain to bring her back!" and cat portrait is sad. the other ending is where you actually fully interrogate the setting and why the village is so isolated and white and why everyone is just accepting of this. in this ending the cat trots up to you while youre talking to the neighbor and willingly goes back inside. and the cat portrait is happy.
#disco elysium#young witch in the alps#de#like if youre the type of person who wants to play ''de but youre a young witch in the alps'' then clearly subtlety doesnt work on you#so the endings r meant to hammer in the idea you can either ignore systemic problems and be miserable#or fight against them and make a difference#but you cant have both#you cant have the cat both free to roam and in the cage#in all the other endings the cat just cant be found#or you find a cat thats close *enough* but not the actual cat and the neighbor gets mad at you for trying to trick them#anyways yeah those r my thoughts
