[tolkien-meta-library]

Hi everyone! Unfortunately, it seems that the wiki for organizing posts isn't getting enough traction to be feasible. So here are potential alternative options that I'm (@fortuitousraven) proposing for your input:

Use an Ao3 collection.

My thought is to create external bookmarks (these allow linking to works posted outside of Ao3) of posts to include in a Ao3 meta library collection. Using bookmarker's tags and subcollections would be an effective way to organize posts by topics.

This would naturally include internal bookmarks of meta works posted on Ao3 itself, and ideally most of them would be. Friendly reminder that fannish non-fiction (such as meta) is allowed on Ao3, you can absolutely cross-post any of your own meta-works on Ao3.

Pros: Large platform that contributors are familiar with using. Safe external archiving (albeit only for cross-posts).

Cons: Less convenient indexing than on a wiki.

Work around tumblr.

This would basically leave this blog the same, but add more index pages to allow specific tags to be looked up more easily.

Pros: Large platform. Easy to manage copyrights of the original posts.

Cons: Tumblr's search functions are glitchy. Can't wrangle tags, unlike Ao3 or the wiki.

Add your own suggestions ;)

With the Who Laughs Last release, a bunch of folks are coming in to the Lord Huron universe with no prior knowledge of it - or are returning and are curious about the characters and stories in the universe, of which the band's music is just one part!

The Way Out There Wiki team have now completed their media guide for anyone who has always wondered about the whole extended universe but didn't know where to start. This guide walks you through, album by album, giving a short synopsis of the story and links to related media (music videos, the Vide Noir movie, the World Ender comic book and more).

If you're new to the lore, new to the band, or just want to brush up on info, this is a great new resource and a perfect place to start!

My life series piece is finished! Only took several days and 9 total hours but it’s done! Very proud of myself for mostly rendering the hands and the Dogwarts Banners…It’s the favorite child. I am happy for this experience since I actually drew something serious for once. It’s purely Third Life based, each heart goes to a certain player death! I’m going to collapse now…

APOLOGIES FOR QUALITY BLAME TUMBLR

I forgot to mention that it’s a school project! I just didn’t put the poem on there that we needed to do. Mostly because I ain’t letting the world see my poem, I hate poems >:[

Tsukasa is heavily associated with the number 88, beginning with his second commissioned song, 88☆彡. The song itself has the number 88 as a recurring motif, with some of this symbolism connecting to Tsukasa.

The following is a (hopefully) complete list of the connections the song and Tsukasa have to the number 88:

The song is exactly 88 measures long.

The song has a BPM of 176, which is 88 in half-time.

The note count for the songs chart on every difficulty ends in 88 (increasing: 388, 588, 688, 1088, 1188, 1388).

The append chart also has 88 stars in total appear on hold notes throughout the song.

There are 88 keys on the piano. Tsukasa's connection to the piano was explored within the On the stage of dazzling light event, the event that 88☆彡 was commissioned for.

When written in English, Wonderlands contains 11 letters, and Showtime contains 8. If the "x" in WonderlandsxShowtime is used as a multiplication sign, 11 multiplied by 8 is equal to 88.

The 8th chapter of this event happens to be the 88th chapter of WonderlandsxShowtime's story altogether (counting all the main story, Virtual Singer main story, and event stories). This doesn't apply to the EN server due to the omission of Revival my dream.

There are 88 known constellations. Another piece of recurring imagery with Tsukasa is a star, which is included in the song's title. Some constellations can also be seen on his trained Star Melody banner 4* card.

The Tenma siblings (including Toya as their honourary sibling) have birthdays that are 8 days apart (Saki is May 9th, Tsukasa is May 17th, and Toya is May 25th). Tsukasa has the middle birthday of the three, meaning that 88 (or 8 and another 8) connects him to the people he considers most important to him. All three of them are also connected to the piano.

Tsukasa smiles in the 2DMV at the end of the bridge, which is also 88 seconds into the song.

In addition to this, Tsukasa's third unit banner, Towards the Phoenix at the Sky's Edge, was the game's 88th event. Again this does not apply to the EN server.

Hey do you think there's a deeper meaning or reason Spite looks just like Lucanis...

There's the scene by the fireplace and I picked up on how Lucanis closes his eyes as he turns his head to avoid looking at Spite...

It's like looking in a mirror, right, and your reflection is staring back as you deliberately hurt yourself with your words.

Lucanis, I think, is stuck in a cycle of 'It’s all I know.' 'It's what I'm good at.' But there's cracks there that hint this isn't who he wants to be...

"Death is my calling."

I don't think he actually believes that, but he has to tell himself that, right?

I don't think he's ever been given the chance to explore who he wants to be, he's just been told this is who he is...

Demons are bound when you 'tell' them what they are so loudly that it's all they can hear. They have to be what you want." But a spirit who evolves to become more of a "real person" is less malleable than a spirit and if they have the certainty of who they are and who they desire to be, they can resist binding entirely.

Did someone else bind the spirit to him by force? Corrupt its nature so fit the needs of the user?

If Spite was originally Love (as I've seen some people comment Love being the opposite of Spite) and they were forcibly bound to Lucanis for whatever reason, did that cause Love to twist into Spite?

I think we're going to have to heal both Lucanis and Spite from whatever grief or trauma they've been through, make him come to terms and accept whatever fucked up thing happened, so it sticks, and he stops just "wiping the slate clean".

He comes across to me as a guy who's just like going through the motions, and needs more of a push to change, for himself.

Nevertheless, it is not unheard of for spirits to evolve and become more "human" by coming to terms with grief, heal from being emotionally hurt, and thus be able to learn from what they endured. By coming to terms with grief, a spirit is able to grow as a person and not "wash clean" like a spirit."

Then I was reading up on spirit healers, and again, there's that same theme of trust here, the spirit trusting the 'mage' and also the loss of trust when being tricked by a benevolent spirit...

To gain the services of such benevolent and righteous beings requires that the mage earn their trust. Often this requires a series of trials to prove that the mage's goals are as noble as the spirit demands, though some mages have claimed to command the compliance of such spirits through sheer force of charisma.

So if Spite was Love, imagine if the trust was broken from the get-go, by whoever brought them over from the fade, that surely would cause Love to twist into Spite?

More than one tale exists of a spirit healer being fooled by a demon masquerading as a benevolent spirit, and inadvertently bringing them across the Veil... or being tricked into letting down their guard, and possessed.

On the flip side, Lucanis is not a mage(?) but if he needed help or something idk- and he was tricked and possessed that way - tricked by 'Love'? Owch, the loss of trust there...

Oh and if Spite just a spirit of Love that was corrupted by Lucanis' own feelings? Like how Justice twisted into Vengeance(?)

We know Lucanis is relearning how to trust, and he's a romantic.

How can you trust others If you don't trust yourself? Spite feels like intrusive thoughts made manifest... And how can you Love others if you have no Love left for yourself? Spite seems to be chipping away at Lucanis slowly... he looks so tired.

What exactly happened to him, I wonder, I can't wait to find out cause it's gonna hurt...

Hello, sfth fandom! I present to you a project that me and the lovely @i-may-be-an-emu have been working on for quite a while now: a shoot from the hip fandom wiki!

It's still very bare-bones and there's a lot of work to be done, but I feel like it's now at a place where it would be really easy for people to make changes to the wiki even if they're unfamiliar with web design and HTML.

If you want to create a new page (notably of a longform) please try to follow the naming conventions that have been set in place. The Grape Depression is a great place to go for reference, as it's the only longform wiki page that is fully complete (so far).

Feel free to ask me via ask box or DMs if you have any questions!!
