Urpi smiling at watching her son-in-law with the Seraphim. She smiles seeing him ruffle Gryphon's hair when he gets an answer right on his math worksheet. She smiles seeing him wipe Gabriel's nose at dinner because the little peanut always gets a runny nose when he eats curry. She smiles seeing him put Nemo to bed with his little stuffed lion.

But Crocodile feels deep guilt whenever he catches this because he couldn't do the same for Luffy and he's worried about Urpi resenting him for that.

“You seemed trouble dear, is everything alright?��

She was making that face again, the picturesque look of warm motherly concern and understanding. Crocodile didn’t know if he deserved to be looked at like that.

He had seen her with the boys, with Dragon, anyone she comes into contact with comes out the other side..better. Warmer. Loved. She understood every one of the Gabriel and Gryphon's nonsensical games. Nemo loved her immediately and refused to leave her arms once in them. He had heard story after story from Dragon about her endless kindness and genuine nature. She was the perfect parent for crying out loud!

And Crocodile….

He met her eyes now, lined with wrinkles and patience before loosing a heavy sigh.

“I was just…wondering is all.”

She smiled, crossing one leg over the other and resting her chin in the palm of her hand.

“Wonder away dear, but don’t be scared to ask either.”

Was he so blatantly obvious or was mind reading some secret Shandian talent she had never deigned to share?

“Alright you caught me. It’s just…aren’t you upset with me, Mrs Urpi?”

An owlishly expression of surprise crossed her face. Her eyes looked around the room a little, as if she was trying to find where the question had even come from.

“Dear I can assure you I am most certainly not upset with you. I apologize if I gave you that impression-“

Crocodile surged forward in his seat, his voice rising and his one good hand gesturing at nothing.“With all due respect Mrs Urpi, let us drop the niceties. I am no child, please speak your mind and be honest: you can’t possibly tell me you aren't angry when you see me with the boys acting like a perfect father when Luffy-“

Losing his steam he slumped back into his chair, staring at his lap in shame. “There’s no way you don’t see me as a failure.”

A silence blanketed them, the echoing of the grandfather clock feeling like a gong.

He stood up, shame swirling in his gut. He'll apologize and then make himself scarce until the end of her visit. He'll-

“Crocodile.”

He looked up (he felt like he did that a lot with her) to see her patting the other half of the couch she laid on pointy. The message was clear and received. He shuffled his way over. For a moment neither of them spoke.

“When I first found out I was pregnant I was terrified.”

He glanced at her in surprise. What is she..

“I hadn’t been feeling well the last couple of days but I had just it was something I ate. I went to the doctor and I’m sure you can guess what they told me. I was happy but I also felt so distant from it all. I never envisioned myself as a mother, hell there was a point in my life where I never thought I’d make it twenty.”

“The pregnancy itself was fine, it was even fun at times but every moment of quiet had terrible thoughts creeping in. I couldn’t connect with my baby, I couldn’t do the one thing I was just supposed to naturally do and I felt like a failure.”

Crocodile was astounded, he had always felt so othered by pregnancy and birth stories and how the mothers had felt such joy and love but this..

“When Dragon was born I felt blessed but also completely undeserving. Every milestone he didn’t hit on time I believed was my own failing. I could barely eat or sleep, I didn’t even shower. I was paranoid and frantic. I watched him almost obsessively but balked at times when he got too close. I thought I was ruining him, that Nika himself was trying to tell me I wasn’t fit to be a mother.”

He didn’t know who reached out, all he knew was his hand was so tightly grasping hers and he felt every word that spilled from her lips like a sucker punch. In five minutes she had made him feel more seen and understood than he had in nearly twenty years and it was as gratifying as it was overwhelming.

“I-I don’t understand..why are you..”

She turned to him, her eyes and smile equally watery. She loosed her hand from his, using it to caress his back as she pulled him close.

“My dear Crocodile, I will never blame you for making your choice then nor do I blame you for choosing differently now. To overcome what you have..I cannot imagine such strength. I just wanted you to know that you never have been alone in your fears. It does not mark you as weak. I want you to remember that I am so very proud of you.”

Oh.

They didn’t speak more than that, they didn’t need to. Her gradually wetter shoulder and back spoke volumes. Had she known he was so close to tears? Is that why she tugged him into this hug, to allow him the appearance of keeping his dignity by hiding it behind her? It definitely didn’t matter but with the doubts and worries of being secretly resenting washing he had to think of something right?

Folklore Fact - Gryphons/Griffins

Gryphons, griffins, griffons, however you prefer to spell it (I personally use gryphon) - let's talk their folklore and mythology!

(Attic pottery depicting a satyr and a griffin and an Arimaspus from around 375-350 BC, Eretria.)

You probably already know the common popular culture concept of a gryphon: a big, vicious beast that attacks people and probably eats them and/or carries people away to its nest to feed them to its babies. Not much about it has changed in legend, though in a lot of popular culture today, it has seemed to lose its divinity. Gryphons - griffins, whatever you prefer - have quite the robust history, like so many creatures of myth and folklore. Unlike some, however, they have changed very little over time.

Note that this article a general overview of concepts, not a detailed history.

Let's start with etymology, because I just love that stuff. The word "griffin" comes from the Greek word "gryps," which referred to a dragon or griffin and literally meant "curved [or] hook-nosed." Late Latin spelled it "gryphus," a misspelling of grypus, a Latinized version of the Greek (source: https://www.etymonline.com/, one of my favorite websites).

Griffins are said to have the head and wings of an eagle and body of a lion. They may or may not also have pointed ears, depending on the depiction (they more often did, overall, though the griffin of Crete is a notable exception). They were said to guard the gold in the mountains of the north, specifically the mountains of Scythia. The one-eyed Arimaspian people rode on horseback and attempted to steal the griffins' gold, causing griffins to nurture a deep hatred of and hostility toward horses.

A Scythian pectoral, thought to have been made in Greece, depicting - among other things - griffins slaughtering horses. Griffins really, really hate horses.

The famous griffin in the palace of Knossos at Crete, from the Bronze Age (restored).

Griffins appear in truly ancient civilizations, not only Greece but also ancient Egypt and civilizations to the east, including ancient Sumeria. Griffins were later said to also dwell in India and guard gold in that region, and they continued to appear in art throughout ancient Persia, Rome, Byzantium, and into the Middle Ages throughout other regions such as France; they were depicted in ancient Greece with relative frequency and occasionally of considerable importance.

Griffins appeared in many ancient Greek writings, including Aristeas in the 7th century BC. Herodotus and Aeschylus preserved and continued these writings in the 5th century BC, including lines such as,

"But in the north of Europe there is by far the most gold. In this matter again I cannot say with assurance how the gold is produced, but it is said that one-eyed men called Arimaspoi (Arimaspians) steal it from Grypes (Griffins). The most outlying lands, though, as they enclose and wholly surround all the rest of the world, are likely to have those things which we think the finest and the rarest." Herodotus, Histories 3. 116. 1 (trans. Godley) (Greek historian C5th B.C.), source: https://www.theoi.com/Thaumasios/Grypes.html (a wonderful site)

Physical descriptions of the griffin were not commonplace until some later works, and even then, their appearance wasn't always agreed upon. Even the notion of griffins having wings was sometimes disputed. Some scholars even got pretty wild, claiming griffons had no wings at all but instead skin-flaps that they used to glide. They apparently hated awesome things, so it turns out there were always boring people who thought they knew everything, wanted to explain everything "logically," and generally assume they were the smartest ever while also ruining mystique. They would make great scientists today.

Griffins were, however, often said to be holy in nature. They were referred to as the "unbarking hounds of Zeus" by Aeschylus, who warned others never to approach them. Gryphons were also considered sacred to several gods, including prominently Apollo, who was said to depart Delphi each winter, flying on a griffon (griffin, gryphon, etc, I keep swapping this around, I know; my brain spells it differently because I've read way too many sources), and he also is occasionally depicted as hitching griffins to his chariot in addition to riding one. This was particularly prominent in the cults of Hyperborean Apollo, one of the many endless and fascinating cults of ancient Greece.

Medieval bestiary depiction of a griffin slaughtering a horse.

Even by the Middle Ages, gryphons still hated and slaughtered horses and guarded gold, elements that certainly persisted throughout their legends. They also killed men and carried them away to their nests, similar to the manner in which Aeschylus warned people to stay away from gryphons even back when. We can obviously assume griffons were never cuddly, so that isn't much of a change.

Griffins also did not entirely lose their divine relations even into the Middle Ages. Christianity often used positive portrayals of griffins to represent and uphold certain positive tenets of Christian faith; likewise, they became important symbols of medieval heraldry, used to represent a Christian symbol of divine power, as well as general courage, strength, and leadership, especially in a military sense. The depiction of the griffin as a powerful and majestic creature - killing horses and men or not - throughout its history is no doubt because they are a combination of two beasts often considered noble symbols of bravery, power, and divinity: the lion and the eagle, kings of land animals and birds, respectively.

That's a general overview! As you can see, griffins aren't always so bad, at least not compared to some of the other creatures out there from folklore and myth.

please

send me asks i need content

[kvalenagle]

Spent last night chatting with James Scott Spaid, my audiobook narrator, about how challenging and rewarding it was for him to voice a character who grows up and transitions over the course of the first five GryphIns books.

("Don't you dare hurt Lei!" is a common fan mail I get.)

here's a picture of my cat before you go

ily. that's for reading through this

[vergess]

sorry if this is an odd ask to send out of nowhere but i thought your mlp post was really interesting! could you go further into detail about what you think the show does wrong in later seasons? you don't have to, i'm just curious since i really like the show and it's been one of my hyperfixations for a very long time & you have really interesting takes/meta on things in general

thank you for your time!! :3

It very much gets "less about girls" as it progresses. People's background friends/family are suddenly almost always male, for example, with Fluttershy getting a brother, Rainbow Dash's other school friends being male, her dad being more prominently played than her mom, things like that.

This isn't even a bad thing!

While I would argue, and have before, that a show almost exclusively about women is an important thing for the media landscape compared to the glut of All About Men shows?

The reality is that any artistic lens that focuses exclusively on a single gender is going to be worse for it, if for no reason other than where are the trans people.

A truly "gender neutral gaze" would be the ideal, but to be honest I don't even know what that might look like. I can at least conceptualize the female gaze out from existing, limited examples of female led production for a female audience.

But in terms of, IDK, a trans-led production for a genderqueer/neutral audience, I don't even know it that kind of thing exists. It must, because well, trans people are everywhere in the indie arts, but I have never seen it.

Certainly I've never seen it around a kid's show. And one of the things that makes kid media so easy to analyze is, the "allowed" topics are fairly limited. When sex is off the table, you can devote that time to deepening friendships. When men are off the table, you can spend that time deepening female characterization. etc etc.

So anyway, while I would say a female gaze is preferable to a male one in this male dominated society, both have their deep shortcomings. The way MLP handled male characters in S1 by either not having them, or having them be kind of the butt of the joke (Spike) isn't actually a good thing, just a very different one than is common. And there are plenty of ways that the show mistreated Spike particularly for Being A Boy that would make me hesitate to suggest season 1 to, say, trans masc viewers.

But then there are some ways that I can safely say later seasons are just worse.

The fat jokes, for example, were Not A Thing in S1 and as a fat viewer that was a huge relief at first, which became a sharp slap in the face as characters began making fun of heavy eating or using obese background ponies as gross out gags, etc.

On the other hand, the racism very much was present from the beginning, as evidenced by Over A Barrel's portrayal of native americans as literally another species. And that's before we get into the sheer racism of pony colonialism in the first place. Also Zecora the Zebra's... situation. Which was okay as a one off bit in S1, trying if not succeeding at the message of "different=/=bad."

But, like many of these early flaws, the later seasons magnify the problem, especially when the show tries to approach real world issues. Just off the top:

Zecora becomes the magical negro whose mystic knowledge transcends that of the pony gods.

Gryphons become antisemitic stereotypes, obsessed with cash hoarding and isolationism.

Yaks live in technologically inferior wastelands of Yakyakistan, where they are loud, rowdy, and even dangerous.

Dragons are... just... really fucking bad, like by nature, with rare "good ones" going to live among ponies to become civilized.

The fucking saddle arabians apparently just Not Having Perfomance Art and needing to be taught by Trixie.

The kirin being very literally silent to show how zen they are, needing Westerners to give them back their voices.

The sheer audacity to bring Little Strongheart back in the fucking finale and "assign" her as Applejack's token buffalo friend (not even RD???) after AJ and her family nearly wiped the buffalo out and fully never fucking apologized

There's definitely more. Basically every single non-pony species shown to be sapient ends up some kind of a racist mess. At least cows are just like... white people from wisconsin so there's less racism inherent to their depiction but even then...

There are also ways in which the attempts to cater to a male audience weaken the show's overall presentation. Ponies with adult men's human meme images as cutie marks started popping up, for example, which is again not a bad thing, but weakens the overall fantastical world building.

Likewise, the attempts to modernize the setting are... um. Let's go with uneven.

In S1 technology is firmly pre-industrial Euro-Fantasy. I'd put it around 1770-1800 in the human western world.

By S2 there is an electrical grid even in "small" towns like ponyville, something which in the human world didn't take place until about150 years later, with another 50 years to roll out things like video games, which also start appearing.

But only for ponies.

Never for the other species.

I get why they did that. It's a "have your cake and eat it too" scenario where they can keep the pre-industrial fantasy tech level sometimes, but use a modern tech level at other times. It opens up more storytelling options. And it's not like the magical horse universe needs to obey our physics and timelines.

But then why only ponies.

All that does is deepen the racial division between ponies and other species. Which the later seasons LOVe to do. Deepen racial divieds.

After all, in S1 most other species (cows, gryphons, etc) were shown to live in equestria too. But in later seasons, are revealed to live in cloistered ethnostates nominally self ruling but in practical terms subservient to the equestrian state if they want basic rights like the fucking sun.

Which acts to retcon Spike's hatching and adoption from something very heartwarming into something very horrific.

Honestly, the "male gaze" is not the issue I have with late seasons of MLPFIM. It very much comes down to "this show got SO fucking racist SO fucking fast what the FUCK."

And that probably would have happened with all female writers and directors, too, if they were mostly white.

This all makes me sound like I hate MLP, but I promise you, all of this criticism comes from a place of utmost love. This show is really, REALLY good. It is charming, beautifully animated, excellently directed, with passion poured into every aspect of the visuals, the audio, the stories, the characters...

That's what makes these constant missteps so painful to encounter.

Because the highs are so high!

I mean, the movie easily constitutes the best 2D animation out of the western world in DECADES and every track on the album is a banger, and that's just the movie. Cartoon movies aren't exactly noted for their stunning quality, but MLPFIM sure as fuck stuns.

And when the highs are that high, oh man, the lows look lower by comparison.

I've been turning around concepts and ideas for anthro gryphons in my head for YEARRRRSSS but finally felt I had enough of a clear image in my minds eye to give it a shot! Here are Lapis and Azalea! (Azalea is a trans girl btw! She's a cardinal!)

[shadowsofmefilm]

Hello everyone!

My Name is Gryphon Vorbach (She/Her)! I am so excited to be directing one of the 8 films in this years Maine Mayhem Film Festival! It means so much to me to be able to represent my community and I feel so honored to have been chosen. This story is very personal to me as a Trans person and simply as a person who also struggles with anxiety.

Shadows of Me is a short film about a Nonbinary person named Chloe struggling with anxiety and a lack of confidence represented through conversations with a darker version of themselves. Chloe has never been shown true kindness or support in their life, least of all from their unsupportive mother. This all changes though when they meet a new person, Farrah. Farrah is a lesbian woman who through her kind nature and growing love for Chloe shows them their true worth... But will this be enough to save Chloe from the shadow within.

The entire preproduction process so far has been a treat to work on! I have gathered an amazing crew, cast and locations. This week we worked on revamping our shoot schedule, as well as picking new dates for filming. Principle Photography will be taking place in March and (as of right now) is looking to be about 5 days of filming.

We have an amazing cast for this film, in fact Chloe and Farrah are being played by the wonderful Gianna Codega and Emily Rose! The two of them were actually costars in last years Mayhem so they have already proven their chemistry on screen. Chloe's Mom is being played by Kayla Newmeyer.

For locations we are going to be filming on campus, the CNMS studio as well as two local businesses! Cia Cafe and Evie's Ferry Village Watering Hole. All party's have been very gracious with our production and we can't wait to film in them!

If you are unaware of the pipline for Mayhem, in order to get your film greenlit you must go through the Preproduction class here at SMCC. Personally I really enjoyed this class. Working through making budgets, schedules, and most importantly the pitching process.

We are so excited to share our creation with you all! We will be updating this blog every week with updates on production and BTS info, so keep on the look out!

NORMALIZE DRAWING TRANSFEMS W NO BOOBS AND TRANS MASCS W BIG BOOBS.

[crazylittlejester]

okay so that one ask Gryphon sent reminded me of my idea of Pre-BotW/AoC Link being called Fauna, which I have done for my Linx AU. It’s just such a good name

also going to steal the color coding idea. because I am about to ramble about my linx au. And also wish you a nice day, have a nice week actually since it’s Sunday somewhere.

Quick thing about the AU: A bunch of the Links are Fairies and they each have titles based on their powers, Pre-BotW/AoC Link is the Fairy of Fauna, so he has control over animals. He actually has control over more nature stuff but doesn’t know that, but BotW/TotK Link does and is called the Fairy of the Wild. I literally only made it so AoC Link doesn’t know he also has more control over nature specifically so I could call him Fauna.

Here’s more Linx thoughts because I like to share:

This AU is based on the show Winx, which has too much lore to explain right now, but just know that the main characters are all fairies. Side note but I think HW Link in any universe would love the show, fairy lover he is. But all the fairies are depicted as women. There are no guy fairies as far as I could tell. So I’m left with two options: 1) have them all be guys anyway, I do what I want or 2) make them all transmasc, I do what I want.

Guess which one I chose :)

So SkSw Link commonly has a “god-killer” moniker because he killed Demise, right? Well TotK Link quite literally has a god’s arm stapled onto him. People already have the idea of the Fierce Deity being scared of Sky, but what about Wild? I characterize Wild(in this AU at least)as having the worst god complex, mainly because of his literal god-given powers.

But I don’t think Wild would be scared of Sky, no, he would be taunting Sky because his ego is just that big. He might’ve killed a god before, but he never killed specifically a Zonai, has he? And what about an extremely durable Hylian, with Zonai powers? Checkmate “““god-killer.”””

I have a list of what kind of fashion each main Link has, among other notes. Why? Because Winx is also a doll line, and doll lines like to have their doll have different aesthetics to appeal to more people. Here’s what I’ve written down as their fashion, which are honestly a bit weird lol:

Wild: Final Fantasy Vibes - Belts

Spirit: Militant Train Conductor

Apo/Apocalypse(HW): Party Gentlemen

Wind: Sleep/Loungewear

Ori(LoZ1+2): Athleisure

Alt(AlttP): Moderate Regal

Time: Forest Boho

Ani(TP): Patchwork Farmer

Hope you enjoyed my rambling, and hope you feel better! I know the feeling of finally not writing and wanting to do other things…and then end up writing. I go to draw-whoops! writing motivation. I go to write-whoops! drawing motivation. Like I’m glad I got the motivation, but can I do it later? Thanks.

THE COLOR CODING IS GENUINELY SO NICE FOR ME IT MAKES IT MUCH EASIER TO FOCUS ON THINGS AND READ. And I hope you have a nice day/week as well

ooooh thats cool!!

i hope you hit em all with the transgenderification beam alkjslkssjl, they deserve to be trans, as a lil treat

i have this mental image of Wild being like ‘hehe haha you cant get me’ doing all sorts of tricks and flips and using the zonai powers while Sky just stands there unamused 😭

OOOOOH THATS COOL, THOSE FIT THEM VERY WELL

i definitely enjoyed your rambling, and i’ve decided to touch up an ‘older’ work i posted on ao3 as a sort of middle ground between taking a break and writing because it’s not as much mental work, I genuinely hate the fic, and I get to write without exhausting myself :) (i say older just because it was one of the first fics i posted for this fandom, it was only from january it aint that old😭)
