SOAP MINI-UPDATE:

I'm going to go check on the version 2.0 lavender wash balls.

Will they have undergone a metamorphosis?

Or will they have succumbed to t̶͔̤̪͔̊̐̓͜ẖ̷̒̉̓̎̽̊e̸̪͈͎̓̒̚ ̸̬̖̹̥͜͝b̴̨̡͈͂͛͑̽̓͊ŗ̸̬̹̯̳̠́̏̚ò̸̡̼̼̟͎̑͌͑̑͘w̶̘͕̱͇̒͋͝n̶̹̟͊̉̓̄̓̕ ̴̧̮̘̼̖̳͐̃̚͝ḧ̸͇̩̹̣͖́o̶̖̳̭͔̐́̉ŗ̵̲̉͋̾̄͂͌r̵̨̛̳͚͓̮̐̇̆̉̚ô̴̯̟̹͇̾͒͝͝r̸͓̩̳̉̑͒̒̉̒ ?

I am filled with a terrible foreboding.

[triflesandparsnips]

!! YAY I'M SO GLAD THEY MADE IT THROUGH.

tbh every day that international customs doesn't destroy my weird packages entirely is another great day

also:

The lip balm is honestly such a good entry point to Shenanigans, I absolutely recommend it.

One of these days I'm actually going to put together some zines or chapbooks of my processes (with... maybe fully accurate modern instructions) so others can follow in my alchemical footsteps, and it's going to be an amazing disaster.

And for anyone else out there who wants to experience questionable packaging and Stede Bonnet's soft, sweet, and often-cookie-scented vibe, you too can play Russian roulette with homemade goods through my shop here:

...where there is currently historical cold cream and lip balm labeled for normies who don't know about the Gentleman Pirate, and where I soon hope to have:

variant labels for OFMD fans (where, for instance, the cold cream is absolutely going to be relabeled as, ahem, The Seaman's Friend), and

MY MISTAKES (by which I mean the ugly soaps, the weird soaps, the unfortunate soaps, and whatever other mid-process things end up coming out of my workshop, at a steep discount for your horrified enjoyment)

WOO

aaaa my @triflesandparsnips lip balm and cold cream came in the post!!! with excellent timing, as i was just digging in the bowels of my last chapstick to finish it off

everything smells so SWEET oh my god??? 😍😍 I'M SO EXCITED TO TRY THEM OUT sdlgjaldhfkjgadfh

also fun fact, the australian border force clearly thought something was terribly suspicious about the package, because they opened it for inspection, lol. nothing was removed, but they left a note and everything. huh.

[bookshelfdreams]

here I sit peacefully doing my little crafts, having finally reached an understanding with my sewing machine as the doorbell rings

who could it be at this time of day?

(the postman asking me if I will take my neighbour's teleshopping packages. or bringing me my buttinette order, if I'm lucky)

it IS the postman but he doesn't hand me anything. Instead, in an unexpected turn of events, he asks me for money.

oh? OH!

International package! for me!! Let's see what's inside 😁

a box! And in that box

oh my god

it's the Actual 18th Centruy Cosmetics from our resident self-proclaimed funky little alchemist @triflesandparsnips!!

They're so pretty :')

I open this and it suddenly smells like a whole rose garden in here. And it's shimmery! A little bit.

I kind of wish I had opened this first. It has a very nice, subtle scent (that I can't appreciate properly because ROSES) and it feels very nice and moisturizing on the lips

*immediately puts on mouth*

Thank you trifles!! What a wonderful surprise I can't thank you enough 💜💜💜💜

Thinking about Vincent and Chisha again.

I've already talked about my headcanon of Chisha enjoying cosmetics/fashion and teaching Vincent about it, and it has led me to focus on their shared hair color. Therefore, I bring you an extension of said headcanon.

Chisha seems to have had pink hair tips since he was a child. Was he born like that, or is it hair dye?

It's mentioned briefly that he'd often become the subject of mockery for his black hair, which is relatively rare in the Re:Zero world.

Perhaps he liked his natural color enough to not dye it whole, but still wanted to make things easier, so he only dyed the tips to help himself feel better or be mocked less.

Vincent, born with the same characteristic, is always described as attractive, and his hair is often portrayed as alluring or charming, precisely because of its rarity.

However, I think he might have received a similar treatment at some point by those who deemed him an easy prey, being a descendant of the feeble House of Abellux and all, before he rose to fame and earned his dreadful reputation.

Upon meeting Vincent, Chisha, still Chesha by that time, thinks about this similarity too, even if he feels foolish believing they could bond over such a trifle because of their drastically different standings.

Before meeting Vincent, how did Chesha feel when the rumors of Vincent's feats, which most likely didn't fail to mention the prince's appearance, reached his ears? When he heard about that boy being regarded as appealing for the same thing that he himself had been ridiculed for more than once?

Then he encountered Vincent, perhaps the first time Chisha saw someone with black hair in person. And there he confirms that the rumors didn't undersell the prince's majesty.

With all this in mind, imagine Vincent praising Chisha's hair, caressing it.

I have talked about Chisha doing Vincent's makeup when the latter cross-dressed, but let's say Chisha did Vincent's hair in these occasions as well. Imagine Chisha brushing and combing Vincent's hair. Even though it was a wig, it matched Vincent's natural color nonetheless.

Also, there were a few chances amidst those years when he got to touch Vincent's natural hair, moments when they both enjoyed contact with the other in quiet.

Chisha would find himself thinking it looked gorgeous on the prince... so, perhaps, it could look good on himself too?

Then all the Imperial Selection drama happened, which left Chisha with white hair. When he had finally warmed up to it, when he had started believing the one trait that'd vex him before was, maybe, beautiful, it was gone.

But even so, Chisha still had his master beside him. There would still be chances to brush and caress that black hair he had grown to love, and that could be enough.

"Winter is coming." ;; @inhcritance

winter themed sentence starters ;; accepting

She wrinkled her nose at the cold. Could you smell winter's approach? She wondered. A season didn't have a scent - but there was the overall feel and atmosphere that the season brought with it. The chill air made things smell different, and stung her eyes sometimes. There was, of course, the various holidays celebrated at this time of year. She didn't particularly celebrate anything in particular herself. Growing up travelling through Europe, her parents had practiced a few religions - and Christmas had been celebrated. And then later she had come to know her birth father, and with Erik she had celebrated Chanukah. Wanda often found herself a trifle confused about what route to go down.

But others didn't have the same thoughts. There were decorations EVERYWHERE. And Christmas music filled the air.

She was staring up at a window display of various 'gift packages' from cosmetics to toys, the whole display so over the top and elaborate...

"Winter is coming."

Wanda hadn't expected him to pipe up, but a slight smile twitched up the corners of her lips.

"Winter is already here," she said, not sure exactly how she felt about that. "I don't mind Winter as a whole. I'd prefer to be warm and inside but-- It can be beautiful." Wanda turned from the display to glance over at Harry with an amused smile. "T'is the season, but perhaps not the season of this witch."

"Are you feeling in the holiday spirit?"

👨‍👨‍👦Are you part of a family of ancients/immortals?

It was a good thing the next day was Saturday because after a horrible night spent alternately crying over her broken nail and staring at the ceiling, Madison slept late and rose, still feeling tired, her puffy eyes heavy-lidded, her movements slow. The blonde forced herself to do her routine chores, then that afternoon flopped down on the sofa, too tired and uninterested to tackle anything else. She needed to shop for new cosmetics, but simply couldn’t face the hassle. A quick mental inventory of her cabinet mirror reassured her that she wouldn’t starve for make-up, at least not for a couple of days.

But what was the point of looking beautiful when her nails kept breaking?

At Tessa's question, a feeling of despair settled on her shoulders. Why couldn’t the mutant have waited until Monday to bother her with such trifles? She’d have recovered by then and wouldn’t be at such a terrible disadvantage. She didn’t even have the comfort of being properly dressed. Her long blonde hair was loose and hanging down her back; her jeans were old, tight, and faded; and the oversized jersey she wore probably revealed the fact that she was thin...far too thin. She was thirsty for blood and Tessa was looking more and more...mouth-watering. Madison fought the urge to cross her arms protectively over her frame, clad in frilly pink socks, all the way up to her face, which was bare of even a trace of makeup.

"I didn't have a family," she mumbled, her voice faint. "The man who sired me...meant to kill me and leave me out in the trash to rot." Slowly, Madison leaned forward, blue eyes turning into a glowing sanguine as she regarded Tessa with a look of hunger. "My Sire is an Elder vampire who created a coven of males. No females. Had I been born a boy, he would have taken me home with him and I would have had an army of brothers. Imagine it...a family circlejerk full of misogynistic assholes." She scoffed and leaned back with surprising speed, observing her broken pink nails with a look of disdain. "Now, leave me. I'm hungry and baby Bluu will never forgive me if I attacked and ate her mother."

hey hey guess what it's time for

Update 4: Return of the (Soap) King

For those who haven't been following along, I've been having a nice time doing experimental archaeology and recreating cosmetics/household goods that are historically plausible for local idiot pirate Stede Bonnet to have had around.

Figure 1. Me, addressing my kitchen appliances.

So far we've had successful lip balm, yet-to-be-completed Oil of Lavender, the terrible tragedies that have so far befallen the pearl face cream, and, finally, the unending journey of the one household item actually mentioned on the dang show: the lavender soap (with updates 1-3 and several mini-updates).

Did this all secretly derive from my researching period-appropriate medical horror? Yes. Am I still going to write about it? Of course come on now I can't just keep that enema information to myself--

But TODAY IS NOT THAT DAY.

Figure 2. One very excited ship's surgeon who will unfortunately have to bide his fuckin time.

Nope, today we're on the next iteration of the lavender soap, because we're still at the "fuck around and find out" portion of this experimental process-- and so, behold:

Version 3.0 7 oz. dried soap 4 oz. ground orrisroot 1 oz. ground whole cloves 1 oz. ground benjamin 10 drops lavender essential oil oil of lavender, q.s. rosewater, q.s.

You may notice that I have, tragically, only added enough of anything lavenderish to allow myself the honesty of still calling this "lavender" soap -- as previously discussed, lavender essential oils (as we know them today) were not really a Thing, and the Oil of Lavender (...which is not an essential oil, but rather an infusion of lavender flowers and olive oil) is not quite ready for primetime scent vibes, so I genuinely don't think these are comparable to actually just grinding up and shoving in the dried flowers.

But for the sake of Science, I needed to find out if removing the flowers would help with the browning issue of previous versions, so-- out went the lavender. For now.

Figure 3. Oh no, I-- oh man, don't cry, I'm sorry, I'll put it back omg.

Other changes in this version are:

store-bought ground orrisroot (...listen, Thomas is but a wee lad, and not yet hearty enough to wreck regular orrisroot as hard as it needs);

store-bought ground benzoin (because it was cheaper to buy in bulk that the solid resin from the woo-woo shop);

increased the amount of orrisroot from 1 ounce to 4 ounces, in keeping with some other recipes, to try and bulk up the myristic acid content (i.e., the thing wot makes olive-oil based Nabulsi soap actually produce a bubbly lather)

I should at this point say that typically the scientific process recommends making only one change at a time when conducting Experiments, so that one may know what exactly affected a change in a positive, negative, or neutral manner.

Consider, however, that I have no patience. So fuck it, we ball.

Show us the soap, trifles

To get to the soap, you must first suffer through mortifying ordeal of process photos.

Figure 4. The ground orrisroot on my tiny digital scale (that actually measures grains, which itself is a holdover from apothecary measurements!)

Wait wait wait actually look at my tiny bullshit scale, I love it, look at its little one-gram calibration weight:

Figure 5. A baby.

Figures 6 and 7. An ounce of whole cloves (left) and the results of young Thomas's efforts thrown on top of the orrisroot and benjamin in the mortar (right).

I should note that rather than grinding the cloves in my granite mortar and pestle first, I put them straight into Thomas's maw-- I don't know if that led to how intensely clove-oily these grounds are, or the fact that the lavender flowers were not present to soak it up. Previously I got a grey-green powder out of grinding the both together, so this rich, wet clove-color did not bode well for my "can I stop this from being brown?" soap plans...

Figure 8. ...Or maybe it'll be fine? I added the dried soap, and now look at them all mixed together!

As a note, I had to actually use a whisk at this point rather than just rely on my pestle to do the work -- my mortar is Too Small for these shenanigans, and the four ounces' worth of orrisroot did not help matters. I won't say how much of this mix ended up outside the mortar and on my clothes, but it was... it was a non-zero amount.

Whatever, thought I. This is Science. This is me experiencing the divine art of creation across space-time with my alchemical forebears, and also this is why I should not be allowed in other people's kitchens.

Notably, the upped powder content meant that I had to add a lot more splashes of rosewater to get to a dough-y state where the soap could be hand-rolled, and I had to work significantly longer with the pestle-- while version 2.0 was, per my notes, about 8-10 minutes' worth of work, I would call this a solid 20 minutes at least of beating the ever-loving shit outta this mix until everything was incorporated.

And once it was, well--

Figure 9. Hello, brown.

As you can see, the soap mix does form up very nicely, though it still requires a spatula to clear the sides of the mortar and pestle.

At this point, remembering that the last time I hand-rolled wash balls my palms came away Very Brown, I donned some latex gloves before I commenced my rolling. However, because (and again, I cannot stress this enough) I lack patience, I threw in another change: rather than leaving them as balls, I squished them slightly between my palms to flatten them into slightly more traditional soap shapes.

Figure 10. Cookie dough or falafel: you decide.

A note regarding the scent: Whether it's the relative lack of the lavender, or the big bump to the orrisroot (or some magic alchemical combination of the two), the soaps, while still smelling strongly like spice cookies, now have an oddly-unfamiliar-but-fascinating scent profile, similar to what I found happened when I made the lip pomatum. There's no good reason why this should make me believe that I've come closer to a "real" recipe, but the feeling is there nonetheless -- and it's definitely interesting.

Finally, and because the flat sides of these soaps looked too innocent, too pure, I decided to try that octopus stamp again. For future reference, stamping immediately after making these? Not a great idea. The soap stuck to the stamp like a motherfucker, and so a lot of detail was lost. But regardless--

Figure 11. Spice cookie kraken soap cakes, holy shit.

And now, I actually do have to wait a few days before I can try them out, or they'll fall the fuck to pieces. Keep watch for mini-updates, though, as I check out how they dry and probably do more unfortunate stamp experiments on them.

TRUTH: Ixchel romanced Lace Harding

Ixchel Lavellan is a bleeding heart. The line between romance and platonic love is an odd one for her - she embodies devotion. Most of the dialogue options for the "romance" with Lace Harding are just... the kinds of things you might say to a really really really dear friend (like, sounds like my ride or dies irl). So yeah, while it does at like, one point, maybe two points, seem "flirty," she chose all of those dialogue options and "completed" the quasi romance with Lace in her play through.

TRUTH: Ixchel sacrificed the Chargers

The Ixchel I'm bringing into DA4 is the one who did not get sent back in time. The Ixchel you all know best is the one who did--and she was determined to correct all the mistakes of her past.

One of the ones that haunts her the most, from the very start of Dead Pasts and Dread Futures? Is the sight of the Chargers' bodies strewn out on the beach after she made the wrong call.

Ixchel was only 16 when she became Herald, and she deferred a lot of decisions to the advice of people she thought knew more than her... often to disastrous consequences. It was not fair to her, in hind sight, that Bull put that decision on her shoulders when it was his men, his country. She trusted him and his advice, she trusted the advice of her advisors.

There are a lot of things about her relationship to Bull that haunt her. Including how it ended: with her axe in his skull. 😭

LIE: Ixchel has a Fade arm.

No she doesn't. Ixchel does not even own a prosthetic. And after reading a lot about upper limb amputees, it just did not sit right with me to wipe away her disability by giving her a completely functional arm replacement, be it a Fade arm or a Dagna neural implant prosthetic or a mundane prosthetic. She adapts, and lacking an arm is a trifle compared to the other issues she faces after the Inquisition, personally and physically.

I would love for more Inquisition fans to hear from upper limb amputees themselves about the topic. Few use upper limb prosthetics, or at least few use them with any frequency. There's no shame to people who want to give their Inquisitors a cool arm, but you should at least honor the real life experiences of amputees by reading their stories and being at least aware of the truth.

Here is a video from an above-elbow arm amputee about their prosthesis, how it's pretty mid, and they don't wear it.

I have one of the most advanced prosthetic arms in the world — and I hate it

The Amputee Coalition, with upper limb loss resources.

Source 4:

if you’re writing a character with an upper limb prosthesis; don’t. arm amputees are unicorn level rare even compared to leg amputees, and i’ve never interacted with or even heard of an upper limb amputee that regularly uses a prosthesis, let alone relies on one. fiction has lied to you for the sake of cool aesthetics, don’t repeat the cycle.

Source 5:

All too often, a disabled character gains magic or technology that gives them the same abilities as an able-bodied person. A classic example of this is Luke Skywalker’s bio-mechanical hand in Star Wars. Like Luke, once this character gains their magic or technology, their disability no longer has a significant impact on their life. At its extreme, this pattern can result in disability being treated as a cosmetic choice that has no impact on the story, in which a character is given magical or mechanical body parts just to make them look more hard-core.

Source 6:

Other times, it looks like giving an amputee character a prosthetic so advanced that it’s basically the same as “the real thing” and that they never take off or have any issue with, or giving the character with a spinal injury an implant that bypasses the physical spine’s break, or connects to an exoskeleton that allows them to walk again. Sometimes, it can even look like giving a character some kind of magic item or power that negates the effects of the disability,
