I kinda wanna write a fic about the Hermits being the Wild Hunt.

Xisuma as the defacto leader just because no one else wants that kind of responsibility and eyes upon themselves, but in return the other hermits (often Joe) all help with Wild Magic and all the heavy burdens that come with the leadership.

I have some thoughts about some of the hermits and wanna ramble on about it without spoiling a potential fic too much lmao.

I'm basing this Wild Hunt and the Faerie on my own work so ofc I wanna make Iskall and Keralis as both with jötunn blood, yet being different types of fae/vettir from eachother.

Joe Hills is one of the few, if not only, humans in the Wild Hunt. Yet he’s more other and have a stronger attunement to Wild Magic than most fae.

Cleo having the absolutely most terrifying reputation. All hunters heal faster than most fae, but she gets up from things that would 100% kill any other fae. Rumours say that even the Gan Ceann gave up on claiming her life, but that’s obviously ridiculous....

Cub and Scar was a part of the Vex Monarch’s court. They can still weild Vex magic, but what they actually are, their former positions, what went down before they joined the Hunt is kept mostly secret ;>

I also rlly wanna utilise the hivemind in one way or another.

They would probably eventually down the line become hunters, but I think I'd wanna keep Pearl and Gem as monarchs of their own courts. I would draw inspo from Gem’s Empire s2, but probably go more Lunar aesthetics for Pearl. OR have her court be like the biggest mystery ever (except for Grian) you only really meet her outside of it and she’s not consistant with the way she present herself or what she tells about her own court.

And thus I transition into mcyt crossover time.

Def taking some empires folks into this story as (mostly) monarchs and other courted fae. Probably a mix of s1 and s2? Joel will 100% be based on s1 and Lizzie can go either, but I'm leaning towards s1 for her because of Joel lol. Could also consider making her a jötunn. Ancient beings that are forces of nature and most of em are either gone or in deep slumber. It fits her s1 lol. Fwhip needs to be s2 obvs. Goblins are fae and the way you get goblin children was such a cool world building move I lowkey wanna steal the idea for my own.

I've thought a lot about about Empires being fae courts before and I tried making Pixlriffs as a court ruler work in many ways. And while the ideas I've had are good. None beat the idea of him being a human that's been in the Faerie for so long it has changed him a little. You often find him in ancient courts and ruins and he’s definitly the one you’d go for gossip news about the happenings in the Faerie. I would either give ZloyXP and Lyarrah the same treatment, or they vould be uncourted fae that befriended this odd human.

🕯️ Happy St Lucia’s Day! 🕯

Yuletide in many folk traditions is a huge time for different kinds of magic, and that is very very true of Nordic folk customs. And as seems appropriate for the year I’m having, this year I’m thinking about Catholic syncretism of Lussi Longnight.

This is the night when the month of Jul begins.

Lussi is a spirit who rules over this night. Her name translates to “Light,” and she is known as a mother or queen of the vettir (spirit) and Huldrefolk. She would ride around the countryside with her horse of Yule Riders and look in to homes to check that everything is ready for Yule. This was also the night when the animals would get together and pass judgment on how their humans have kept them - a vestige of animist, reciprocal relationships. It is important to celebrate Lussi Longnight to preserve your health and have a good winter.

In the Catholic tradition, a young girl dressed in a white dress, red sash, and a crown with four candles. She still parades through the streets, and Lucia’s name still means “light.” She has the power to bring back the Sun. Lucy is the patron saint of the blind.

Together, these two form a powerful image for this day of celebration: we pray to them to bring back the light and to ease the hardship of winter.

Tentative Stream Schedule for this week:

Wednesday, 5/29: Final Fantasy XIV. We should hit the Void Ark and continue on with the MSQ past the 3.0 end point, probably hitting Antitower and Lost City of Amdapor (Hard). Thursday, 5/30: Hades II. Maybe I'll pass the Sirens this time. Friday, 5/31: FFXIV. Assuming Wednesday reaches as planned, start the Warring Triad trials with Sephirot, then some more MSQ, possibly ending with Alexander, Sohr Khai, and Hullbreaker Isle.

I typically start my stream between 5 and 7pm Pacific time, and end around 11pm Pacific. Twitch link: https://www.twitch.tv/vettir

( ♛ truth serum ) : have you ever thought about bedding your sister? you targaryens are bit freaky.

[ID: they're all screenshots of tumblr tags.

the first one is a reblog by @/sybbi of @/tributary whose tags read, "#the fact that their main issue is that standing together is 'normalizing' things is so crazy #asking not to support a group of people helping to get aid past extremist protestors who would rather Palestinians starve to death #doesn't help Palestinians #and it really is tipping your hand when you act like working together with people is as good as treason #what a crock of shit #like i know no group is a monolith but jfc"

the next screenshot is a reblog by @/peterdyckmancampbell of @/sopranoentravesti whose tags read, "#BDS is stupid as fuck is this news to anyone??? I guess to antisemites"

the next screenshot is a reblog by @/vettir of @/spot-the-antisemitism whose tags read, "#standing together #BDS are idiots #leftist brainrot #i/p"

then a reblog by @/wi11owbird of @/arandomshotinthedark whose tags read, "#lmao bds is just jealous that standing together has done more for Palestinians than they ever will #standing together #i/p"

the next screenshot is a reblog by @/bene-darkmans of @/weird-ecologies whose tags read, "#standing together #the only org really worth supporting"

then a reblog by @/vettir of @/spot-the-antisemitism whose tags read, "#standing together #BDS are idiots #leftist brainrot #i/p"

the next screenshot is a reblog by @/arandomshotinthedark of @/tributary whose tags read, "#standing together #fuck BDS"

then a reblog by @/hilacopter by @/spot-the-antisemitism whose tags read, "#nah man fuck bds"

then a reblog by @/mearchuimhne by @/spot-the-antisemitism whose tags read, "#BDS org can get fucked #take that as you will"

the next screenshot is a reblog by @/arandomshotinthedark of @/tributary whose tags read, "#standing together #that 'certain org' btw is a right wing reactionary group that uses leftist verbiage to get support"]

Scrolling through a blog because I remember them being pointed out as Zionists a while back and then I found this post about standing together where the tags are FILLED with non-Palestinians calling BDS performative and shit like yeah I'm aware they fought the israelis at the border of Gaza to let aid in but by the time BDS had come out with the condemnation of standing together, they WERENT doing that. They were just talking. They didn't do SHIT when bds put out that condemnation. Now that they're finally doing something (too little too late btw) you wanna take this as a chance to yell at BDS?? Do you guys think it's appropriate to tell Palestinian orgs what they're doing correctly or incorrectly based on your own viewpoints??

"They work to deradicalize israelis so they use a specific vocabularly" I want you to know that Palestinians have been using that vocabulary for 75 years. No they're not doing something new. They're doing the same thing our elders have been doing for generations. And do you know what we learned from that? That israelis hate our guts more than you can fathom.

If standing together had FROM THE START done shit to help Palestinians in tangible ways, I wouldn't be saying anything. But they didn't. They JUST started a couple months ago with their efforts at the Gaza crossing so now you want to moralize and say "at least they're doing something"??? By all means they should continue doing this, I'm not telling them to stop but the way this post is just so rude... bds initiatives are widely supported by most Palestinians around the world (and yet we criticize it still, obviously) so you all have absolutely no reason to take this as a chance to diss it if youre not palestinian.

You guys actually need to stomp this shit out from your posts why the fuck are you all letting this happen. Bds has been around for longer than standing together and DOES help Palestine by making it clear that companies building on west bank territories (which the companies are owned by ISRAEL not Palestinians) will not be bought from or supported, meaning that they withdraw their contracts to put the israeli government in a monetary bind.

Also you all talk about "israeli deradicalization" as if we are at a point in time where deradicalization is the goal. We know people in '48 and the West Bank and Gaza. Like sorry but that is not what we are thinking about right now! Slow change might have been useful a while ago, but we literally cannot afford slow change right now.

That is to say I really don't care that much about standing together despite what it may seem. They do not occupy my mind nearly as much as i talk about them. I'm just astounded that you guys are giving them money when you can be donating to Palestinians in Gaza directly.

Also I was right, silverfox66 is a zionist so. Don't reblog them.

This is the night when the month of Yule began. And it was also the most dangerous night of the year. A female spirit, a vette, ruled this night, going by the name of Lussi (“Light”). She was the mother and/or queen of the vettir (spirits) and other Huldrefolk (otherwordly beings), as such a kin to Huldra, gnomes, trolls, and at some time in history, even to the gods (hence her relation to the Ásgardsrei – the Riders from Ásgard, who in some traditions appeared on this night, while in other traditions they are called the Julereia – the Yule Riders). People had to stay inside this night, eating and celebrating to placate and avert the anger of Lussi´s retinue, and keeping the lights on. It was also very important to take care of the animals.

El post del/la chiefpurfect està completament delulu. O sigui no sé on viu exactament, si sota terra o què, però wtf. Bàsicament, aquest comentari (irònic entenc) del @vettir ho explica bé:

No hi ha cultura a europa (i sobretot europa mediterrània, però en general el mateix), que no hagi tingut influències d'altres. Ha estat tot en moviment durant moltíssims anys --exemple clar i casolà a la banda mediterrània d'espanya i catalunya--, on han passat tantíssimes civilitzacions i hi ha hagut mescles brutals culturals.

Però a Grècia no? Come on, que hi ha hagut mil influències anteriors i posteriors. Què vol dir això que "written by non-greeks"? what the fuck? Esque puges a rússia i a tots els països eslaus i estan encara igual, només cal que miris EL PUTO ALFABET CIRÍL·LIC. Neoclassicisme anyone?

Simplement, que això passa amb totes les cultures (no només la grega, fyi), i pensava que era sentit comú, però veig que no. Take estúpida i de mentalitat més que tancada.

(i fent referència al post original, clarament estem i estan en tot el dret a criticar adaptacions de merda (perquè n'hi ha de molt, molt dolentes), però come on)

( ♛ truth serum ) : do you consider your sister a traitor for marrying a lannister whilst you are not king?

“Not at all. Rhaena was always meant to marry someone from a house with whom we have poor history. That was unavoidable—there are few houses extant today who did not wrong the Targaryens, or who were not wronged by us. A Lannister was always a possibility, one which I would never hold against her. The betrayal came at the hand of our father, who had such little faith in Rhaena that he refused to let her take the throne she was meant to have in my stead, and instead sold her off and let her husband claim what was hers.

“And if we go back further, the true betrayal was made by me in choosing to leave. Had I stayed, Rhaena would never have been put in that position.”

Honesty is a virtue.

I discovered that this quote is not from the Talmud, but in fact from Parashat Mishpatim (30:4) by Avis D'Rebbe Nosson.

I apologise for the misinformation.
