How about one (or more) of the other fireside girls? I vote holly and/or Gretchen.
Concept: Ginger and Baljeet break up bc they both realize they are gay and had major comphet. there are zero hurt feelings or ruined relationships. they go back to being friends and help each other with their respective crushes.

Vincent and Isaac make quite the team! They work well together and win many cases in court. However, they don't know much about each other outside of work. On the way to meet their new client, Isaac questioned Vincent to try to get to know him better. He did not share much, only giving vague answers. Then they saw their client. "Isaac, meet Mr. Felix Reichmann!" Vincent exclaimed. "Reichmann." Isaac muttered under his breath, troubled by the surname.
#ts4#sims 4#ts4 gameplay#ts4 legacy#postcard legacy#postcard gen 3#vincent kingsley#isacco romano#felix reichmann#felix is still here he got scammed...#i dont wanna say goodbye to him!!!! but its coming closer to his end#if he can be part of the story then OF COURSE i will include him!!!#in my head felix is in 80s bryce late 50s and renee late 20s early 30s#and yes isaac is troubled by the reichmann surname i wonder why???#he saw vince that time with renee but he doesnt know her name or that shes a reichmann. which reichmann may he have heard of???

Do you think Tessa would ever think about how her (adoptive) son is dating her great something grandson? 😭
i keep on forgetting about this and it’s so funny every time i’m reminded :’) but tbh i think tessa would also find it funny as well, and i just know that she will adore ty as soon as she meets him :( like when she sees how happy kit is around him, how similar ty is to henry and christopher with his love for inventions and experiments and ty’s obsession with animals and mysteries will just make her love ty (her great great (x?) grandson) even more <3
#honestly that’s the irritating thing about tsc#like ur just stuck questioning whether ur ship is actually related in some way#LIKE GIVE THEM DIFFERENT SURNAMES#AND DONT GIVE EVERYONE THE SAME NAMES LIKE WE HAVE PLENTY OF JONATHANS AND CHRISTOPHERS ITS GETTING CONFUSING#but yeah when it comes to tessa & ty i don’t think i will ever understand why she hasn’t been in contact with ty all these years#just kinda strange how cassie writes the family dynamics 🥹#tessa gray#ty blackthorn#kit herondale#kit x ty#kitty#the dark artifices#the wicked powers#tda#twp#tsc#asks

I know this is not the point, but the way even as her past-self Crystal Palace still bonded with a ghost and showed her kindness to the extent that said ghost goes for help when she starts acting off.
The way a small ounce of kindness can find its way back.
#dead boy detectives#crystal palace surname von hoverkraft#crystal palace#i assume thats why the ghost like...sought help??#like ik she wasnt the best person but i dont think she was like- as horrific and she thinks she was#i mean doesnt excuse anything. and i really love the message of bettering ones self and change#just that if she didn't show this ghost some kindness. it would have been less likely she would have gotten help#i wonder what became of that little girl ghost? shes literally never mentioned again?? which is why im still a lil iffy on-#what kind of friendship she had with crystal??#thats what i get for binge watching while sleep deprived#dbda

so sad to me that most people tag john as 'john kayano' but mido never gets the kayano surname.... why not doesnt he deserve it. why is he rejected from this family
#chernikocore#'why is he rejected from this family' the actual answer is hes dadcoded and distances himself on purpose#but most people dont think of it like that. so I'll ask again. why doesnt mido get the title of kayano :<#sure he doesnt have a canon name but its not like john canonically accepts the surname of kayano#actually mikos parents are divorced do u think kayano is his fathers surname or his mothers ?#did his mother change her surname after they married? did mikoto change his surname?#oh well not rlly important. anyway accept mido as a kayano or make me sad

As landback efforts here become more successful I can't help but wonder how long it will take for indigenous reclamation to be described as the predations of settler colonists
#"They don't even look/sound/act Indian!! [they're not tobacco store Indian or tintype photos]#[they look too white/hispanic/black/clean/well off etc they dont live by the old ways that europeans made inpossible to continue]#“They don't even have Indian last names!” [The surname tradition adopted from/imposed by Europeans with a variety of sources and styles#doesn't express indigenous identity enough to me even tho they're named fucking Peltier]#“a nice local family used to own this land [generations old white or black owned business on the site of an indigenous property] until it w#taken by strangers [the original owners who were forced off] with no connection to here from Oklahoma [the reservation they were removed to#and half of them died on route to.]#like will it be 50 years? 100? Am I going to have to live through it?#we're already getting criticism for tribes getting land back and having the audacity to use it and not just turn into nature reserves#they've already turned one genocided minority into race fakers and colonialists why not natives next??

ooOOOOOoooOOOOooOOo totally anonymous ghost asking you to tell me more about roona ooOOOooOOOoOOOo so spooky ooOOOOooOOooOOooOOoo
woaaah not sure why an anonymous person, perhaps a ghost... would be contacting me... haha... ha... 0_0 soooo crazy...
anyway yes my favourite subject, Roona <3 <3
her queenly name, Nadira, is not her family name. lots of queens change it bc of tradition or to make sure their family doesn't get doxxed (lmao rip), and she's kind of leaning on the former reason. her relationship with her family is not the greatest. they weren't bad, but they weren't... good. when she moves off to Theed to become a handmaiden, she mainly cuts contact, save for holidays/birthdays/etc. Otherwise, they all forget they exist.
Uhh yeah she's an introvert and not very people-oriented. She's been that way since she was little. Later it just grew into depression--dysthymia to be exact. She's managing it--it's become so much a part of her life that it's just There. it sucks. but it's There. she knows how to deal with it.
ALSO I did mention she uses hearing aids and a cane but I did miss out on some stuff. Okay so the cane is for balance and weakness. But those two aids were thought up AFTER the first one, which i forgot to mention. The reason I'm drawing clothes less detailed and ornate than most queens is because she has a central line. she and her staff have to be able to access it easily. Sometimes she risks it for more formal events, but otherwise, she tries not to restrict herself in bulky clothes that are not easily removable. She's got a chronic illness, which is why she uses it but. I dont know what it is. Because initally i was like "oooh new space illness" but then i did NOT bother to ever expound upon that. i still haven't. i dont know what this new space illness is. maybe i never will. she has it tho xoxo
uhh yea. she's great. i love her <3
#this is just a little bit of her like i have sooo much ive thinked up and sooo much i have yet to think!!#including my own HCs about naboo queens in general!#aaah thankyou uh... ghost. that i dont know. yeah. totally dont know who this ghost is. um. cause. im not sure at all why they'd haunt me#not at all... haha... ha... ha 0-0#queen roona#mimse ocs#star wars oc#star wars#(no dont ask me what the family surname is it took me forever for her queenly surname. i'll think of it.... not now xoxo)#(its not one she ever uses again tho so its like her deadname sooo maybe if i never think of it its fiiiiine)

Medieval/fantasy au be upon ye: the gang reconvenes and discusses their next steps
Oh god, so this one requires me to get into what the hell this au is about and uhhhh I don’t… know?? Yet???
I’ve got some broad sweeps down but the details are for the most part hazy rn
(That got long fast whoopsie!!)
SO:
- The Pennykettles are the royal family, Lucy is the heir. David is not strictly related to Liz or Lucy, but he was raised in proximity to the crown and later made the equivalent to a prince in title (basically, he’s not really royalty, he can’t take the crown, and he doesn’t do anything important, but he is the court’s funny little guy and you will apologise to him rn for hurting his feelings!! He acts as a figurehead in the Pennykettles’ place for some festivals, and is generally well liked by the public despite being dumb as rocks.)
- More on David: he was raised by the monks of Avalon (pushing my Arthur & Bernard agenda on this fine evening), one of which Liz eventually married (take a wild guess).
- The royal line carries down the women, Arthur is basically arm candy. He and Liz are very queer-platonic to me. Their role is to act as ‘ambassadors’ between dragons and humankind. It’s mostly symbolic at this point, as dragons are very respected and mostly left to their own devices. Their perches are treated as holy places where offerings are left, and they don’t bother themselves with humans as long as things continue to roll smoothly.
- (To be clear, Arthur is not Lucy’s father. I may well go with canon’s egg shit because it works maddeningly well here. It is also important to me that you know Arthur is still blind. I will hold this man in my disabled arms mwah you are safe here)
- THE PENNYKETTLE DRAGONS? They’re still here baybey, but REAL ALL OF THE TIME. They’re a small species of living dragons – I haven’t worked out the exact origin story here yet, whether Liz still breathed life into them from something non-living, or if they’re just juveniles that will eventually become as big as Gawaine. We shall see, I suppose. I imagine that they act like very needy cats that attach themselves to their human and follow them about. God I wish I had a little dragon guy.
- The royal library is run by Henry Bacon (HE LIVES. FUCK YOU.) and his apprentice, Zanna Martindale. David also used to apprentice here before being adopted by the crown. It took Zanna a while to get over the boy she used to throw books at and make daisy chains for becoming effectively a prince. They are in love <3 (no Alexa yet, sorry (unless…. Hm, I will get back to you on this…) bc I see David and Zanna being Firestar ages, and Lucy being older than usual at around 16/17)
- Zanna has a vaguely middle-class upbringing (as far as the concept exists), with a doctor/dentist father and an older sister. (Ngl. Forgot zanna had a real dentist dad and just made henry her father originally. And now to fix it I’m considering marrying them. It would be funny literally only to me. But it Would be funny. Local doctor and librarian have a weird unacknowledged little gay thing going on. Good for them <3)
- I don’t know how but Melanie Cartwright is in there somewhere and she and Lucy are dating. I am right. You will understand the kettlewright agenda by the time im through with you.
- Lucy is in her teenage angst era but at least this time it’s just sort of silly instead of a result of horrific trauma. She’s just smothered by loving parents and thinks she could totally make it as an independent adult with no survival skills. She is wrong!
- (Lucy voice: God I hate my parents, they keep saying they love me every twelve seconds 🙄 I just want to do normal things like commit property damage and travel cross-country with nothing but a bag of cheese and scare old man Bacon. Instead all I can do is count my stacks of money and play fetch with my fire-breathing cat. This fucking blows!! They never let me do anything fun :/)
- Tam is a wannabe poet who becomes a knight. On his first day after a big promotion he promptly loses the crown’s only princess and decides that the best course of action is to fake his death and live in the forest. I can’t say I blame him.
- During Tam’s self-imposed exile he comes across is stalked by Bella (the catgirl). He finds her very annoying and is not at all her father now. He also hates cats and would never ever pet one and let it fall asleep in his lap. He is a man of principles and sticks to his finely tuned moral compass. By lying. And running away.
- Regarding Lucy’s disappearance – it was her way of getting away for a bit for fun only child shenanigans, but ultimately ends in her (crown princess, very recognisable, her face is on like. Everything.) getting kidnapped for real.
- Unbeknownst to Tam, David had also disappeared during official business, and Zanna is nowhere to be found. The crown is left in a precarious place, and it soon appears to be under real threat.
- Spoilers: Voss is about, and there is a lot he’s willing to take.
- On lighter notes: Gwilanna and the Chamberlain boys are absolutely still in this because I am so fucking predictable. Tootega come here I can treat you so much better mwah mwah. Well… maybe Gwilanna isn’t a lighter note. But she is there! This will have no consequences on anyone or anything, I’m sure! :3
PLEASE DEAR GOD ASK ME QUESTIONS IF YOU HAVE THEM. I swing violently between wanting to give every single plot detail rn and wanting to go write the actual fic so things can be revealed ✨mysteriously✨
#the last dragon chronicles#tldc#david rain#zanna martindale#lucy pennykettle#tam farrell#bella tldc#i swear her surname came up but i cant find it rn rip#ragnar art#fantasy au#ig?? idk i need a tag for this stuff so i dont flood the main tag all the time#<-- also like generally im gonna try to keep sketches out of the main tag i think#unless its sm i spent a long time on (like this) im gonna keep it quiet bc im just hyperaware theres not a lot of us and i want it to be#easy to ignore my self indulgent stuff lol#i mean....

check out my mouthwashing hcs : ] artist notes and explanation under the cut!!!
JIMMY - I found most of their last names in the mouthwashing reddit and as I searched up the surname Zare, it seemed to be of Iranian origin, hence why he's Iranian American to me. I like to think he was already pale and sickly looking before but during the game events he just looks. Worse. DAISUKE- Juarez is fairly a Filipino/Mexican name but I'm sticking with Filipino purely bc i believe he can do the budots. Anywho, I took his Early skintone from the official emojis in the steam page and tried to incorporate the ingame skintone with it, mixing it up a little so hes not completely washed out. ANYA- Im biased when doing her nationality HC bc ive been learning french and I learned from reddit that her last name is Japanese so thats interesting : ] now I think she and Daisuke have something to bond over at least. Anywho, I like to believe she has her particular style of makeup, and she used to have foundation that wouldve made her skin brighter bc shes really pale. Her ingame skintone is even paler than her usual bc of no sun. Also yes, she looks worse bc of fatigue bc i can only imagine the struggle and sleepless nights patching curly up. Shes still very beautiful though!!!! SWANSEA- Nothing much to write home about, just regular signs of aging, searching up his name on google (his name is a welsh town apparently), but his card shows a broken nose! Or maybe its the way the card is bent. I love to believe the former. CURLY - So we dont have a Curly ID so I made my own, freshly promoted Curly. His hair changing is a reference to my hair changing (im also blonde) and bc i think hes p neat so he has that. Hes Canadian British bc hes the whitest white man you can ever white. Maybe a sprinkle of irish but thats it. like 9% Irish from his mother's side or something. His curls stopped curling curling because I doubt he'd have too much time worrying abt them atp when the ship atmosphere fucks it up anyways.

The wild references to Finland in Honkai Star Rail
Hello, in this post I'm going to go over the various references to Finland in Honkai Star Rail (Also touching a little on HI3) and explaining them the best I can so that non-finns can understand how hilariously delightful they are.
_
Starting with a funny one: Welt Yang.
The man is canonically 1/2 finnish, 1/4th chinese and 1/4th german according to sources I dont understand.
The way this is represented in Honkai Star Rail comes in one intentional form and one that may be an accident but I love it anyway:
1.
Welt's given name is Joachim Nokianvirtanen, a name that is utterly hilarious to a finn like me. Why? Well Nokianvirtanen is not a surname anyone here would ever have. Virtanen is a real surname, but for some reason Mihoyo decided slap Nokia in the front of it??
The name translates to "Nokia's rapids." Which adds to the funniness because yes Nokia is an actual place in Finland and not just the brand, but it is also very much the brand.
(Also Joachim is not a finnish name even if many finns are christian.)
This is the equivalant of naming an american character Jesus McDonaldslake.
2.
Welt's hair colour! A lot of people imagine blond and blue eyes when imagining a finn, but that's not actually accurate to the statistics. The most common hair colour here is in fact "Maantien harmaa." Translating to country road grey. Sometimes they leave out the word grey or replace it with blond. The colour is known as dirty blond or pale brown in english speaking countries 👍 This is less funny and just a cute detail.
_
Secondly we'll be going over Sampo Koski, a man many know to have a very finnish name.
BUT FIRST Fun backround info: I didn't know Sampo was in this game when I first started playing, so when he showed up and suddenly dropped finnish words at me I was utterly jumpscared.
Finland is very rarely referenced in media outside of our country, so most of us are NOT used to hearing anything about our home in media.
Furthermore there's actually a meme about this very thing that everyone in the country knows: Torilla Tavataan. This translates to "Lets meet at the marketplace" which is referring to the idea that when something massively cool happens we should gather together and celebrate.
The finns REALLY want to be acknowledged by the wider world lol
Anyway back to Sampo. His name is actually something I could totally see a real finn having, although his first name is a little out there.
Sampo is an item from finnish* mythology that was forged by a super capable smith with the help of his whole village. The item is golden with multiple spouts that produce valuable things like flour, gold and I believe... salt? You can find more about the item online.
Koski meanwhile means a river rapid. Uhm, lotsa water themed names here, huh!
Nothing that funny going on with his references to be honest. I can even say the voice actor did an amazing job pronouncing his name correctly.
_
Yunli's companion quest!
This is the newest batch of references I've ran into, but if I or anyone else finds more I'll be updating this list :]
In Yunli's companion quest we meet... Paavo. His name is Paavo--
This NPC introduces himself as a traveler from far away who's come to deliver a sword from his homeland back to the Xianzhou where it was originally forged. Here's why he made me giggle uncontrollably every moment he was on screen.
1.
Paavo is considered kind of a joke name, very comparable to naming someone Bob in america. The way NPC's referred to him sounded like "Mr. Bob" to me. It was so funny
2.
He is from the PLANET KALEVALA?? SAFlJ LJ ???
Kalevala is the national epic of Finland* and tells stories such as the one of Sampo's creation. The title does refer to setting of the story, but it is still weird to hear it as a name of a planet lol.
3.
Our food is really repetitive u right Mr. Paavo
4.
Paavo explains the sword he has come to deliver is called Miekka Kivessä. This is the finnish translations of "The sword in the stone." he proceeds to then explain the legend of the sword in the stone, which. It's not a finnish legend. We've never had a king, yet alone chosen them with a sword-- Not even in myths. Kalevala's highest ranking guy in the mortal realm is Väinämöinen who's an old wise man.
Also he says Miekka Kivessä wrong but that's to be expected, very funny, and also I admire the effort to at least try and make it sound natural.
5.
Finally, he later reveals his last name-- Which, why are we refering to him as Mr. Paavo if he has a last name...? Oh well! Mr. Paavo's last name is Kalastaja, which translates to Fisher. This is not a real last name in Finland. The english equivalent of this man's goddang name would be something like Mr. Bob Employee.
_
Since you've made it this far I assume you won't mind me rambling a bit more. I'm personally psyched to see Finland mentioned in non-finnish media and love the wonky but genuine attempts to include us!
I think considering how many weebs there are in Finland who've come up with illogical "Asian names" to sound cool online, it's only fair we got the same treatment back :P I hope they'll keep delivering and I'd love to visit planet Kalevala one day.
_
*It's worth noting Finland is a colonizer of the Sami people, and a lot of their culture has been annexed without any care or respect towards them.
Finland was also under colonialism itself for hundreds of years, and our myths have been largely lost to time with only some information left. It's super difficult to tell what is finnish mythology and whats the Sami people's mythology.
That's a fact that's deeply important to remember when discussing things like this, and I hope that the people reading this consider looking into how to help the indigenous people of the nordic region. Thank you.
