more of julia! my conductor and wife's (tmosth) fanchild. she's a 9 year old puppy that, ironically, doesn't like trains at all

i'm holding a q&a thing so i can share more context for the family! two questions i have answered below:

"what was the conductor's reaction after knowing that she doesn't like trains?" and "where do they exactly live?"

Draußen wird es immer kälter, da muss man sich auf andere Art und Weise warmhalten. Und wie ginge das besser als mit einem herzerwärmenden Buch.

Du magst es lieber kalt? Keine Sorge, in 'Staubrosen' gibt es auch einige eher frostige Momente und damit meine ich keine gemütliche Schlittenfahrt...

Liebe, Kunst und seltsame Sonderwünsche.

Klingt gut?

Dann bestell Staubrosen gleich hier:

A Spark That Won't Go Out Chapter 21

Chapter 21 is here! The final battle for Winterburg has begun. Whisper's resolve prepares to be tested. Sonic and Surge have a nice plane ride.

[supportivecircle]

i ran a sonic based dnd campaign for a year

my folders on drive and on my desktop are filled with so much crap

we didn’t get to finish it but the campaign document was sitting at around 130 slides and we still had a final stretch to go. it was post metal virus arc by a few months, sonic didn’t come back immediately (in fact he wasn’t sent to the Sol Dimension, he warped to the Twilight Cage. the players who knew Sonic expected Sol Dimension. i robbed their minds. i ROBBED them. THATS RIGHT. DARK BROTHERHOOD WAS BEING WORKED INTO IT. LOOSELY. WE CLOWN IN THIS MOTHERFATHER.) so Amy didn’t step down but Jewel did become her administrator of the Logistics branch of the Restoration, while Amy lead the Security branch. 

i made a custom warlock subclass (balance unsure) for wisps patron that had an experimental prototype variable wispon the restoration was testing based off of whisper’s

i pieced together a map of the main continent based off of: tabbing in and out of the sonic forces map screen to get the rough landmass and locations of “zones”; some work people online did to try the same thing; cream’s WRONG map (she says thats north but cuhLEARLY in forces this cannot be the case dear god help me you stYUPID CHILD); and amy’s Restoration map was of no help to me at all because it shows Central City on the coast where Seaside/Sunset would have been, and also on a northern shoreline while barricade town is on the end of an entire peninsula. so i FIXED it. i fixed ALL of it. also there is a small town named Degrassi near the snowline south of Winterburg. because we love Degrassi. make it canon Evan Stanley if you somehow stumble across this. whisper into Flynn’s ear like wormtongue and get this done for me, whatever it takes, because i know you can make it through. maybe name it like Dagrassy. idk you’re the talent not me.

we had started in 2020 and played for two months before taking a year hiatus to play a magical girl campaign in the FATE system. some highlights of the campaign:

at one point early on, a piece of the orbiting ruined Death Egg fell to the earth in an event known as a “Death Fall” and landed on Orchardville. the players got to team up with Whisper to infiltrate it and deactivate the systems onboard controlling the badniks coming out of it. mimic was also there to steal data for starline.

the Bad Guys didnt split up like in canon, instead eggman had been working real lowkey on finding where sonic warped to to finish him off, and starline became better at being a leader. mimic was still doing stealth ops. rough and tumble were given a task of leading bandit activity in the western part of the continent to keep the Restoration busy. honestly, i just didn’t want to think about what to do with the Zeti so they never came up. its a whole thing. probably not well thought out grand scheme but no one asked questions about the Zeti.

i stole the entirety of the death house from curse of strahd but toned it down to just make a spooky haunted house segment near windmill village and i played the instrumental loop of pumpkin hill for at least 30 minutes at one point as ambience.

one of the players had a truck that over time got suped up with upgrades to be a complete wrecking ball with a lightning cannon to shock badniks and an on-board AI the inventor made based off of his boss, Lanolin, named LAN who would activate with the phrase LAN-Online.

the players helped begin the healing of the Green Sand Hill Zone by uncovering the underground main hub Egg Pyramid that had been controlling the Egg Pyramids in Forces and were draining oil out from the earth. they fought Thunderbolt the Chinchilla there, who had been running the operation for Eggman while he was working on his grander plans.

one player was offered a FIST BUMP in the first session by Lanolin and refused cause the character was an old grouch. this stain on their character was never cleaned.

there were several starline’d versions of badniks that appeared the closer they got to his operations. incredibly obvious knock offs with a new color scheme. starline also freaking died by being outplayed by Eggman.

there was a recurring merchant they met in the first city and almost every major city afterwards who was actually a wizard who inherited wealth from their bastard father and decided to open up a series of pawn shops across the world called Thorne’s Tradery (her name was Juliet Thorne). she refused to use offensive magic out of an oath she took, but was doing her best to help the Restoration by supplying their agents (and civilians) with easy access to a fair place to trade and possibly get magic/advanced tech items (not for civilians).

i did what SEGdont and had Tangle and Whisper finally resolve their blatant romantic tension with the aid of the player characters. we stan these lesbian queens. tangle was a monk who had “determination” or something instead of Ki, and whisper was the same warlock subclass as the player character, but a lower level. i never got around to making an amy statblock but she was going to be a battlemaster fighter with some character feat type stuff akin to divination wizard’s portent, and would have focused around giving players advantages/extra actions in combat when not beating stuff with her hammer.

the finale was going to have the entire team go super-mode via chaos emeralds (screw the canon) and fighting a giant invasive monstrosity from the twilight cage threatening to destroy Central City, while Sonic was still dealing with REALITY SICKNESS from his time spent in the cage. they’d have had unique abilities, a theme song on their turn (Endless Possibilities Rockestrate My World version, Reach for the Stars, What I’m Made Of, and Knight of the Wind), and a one-time reaction called “We’re All Counting on You�� that would have provided them with an emergency supply of rings from notable NPCs they had bonded with during the game. it was going to be hype.

i was far FAR too lazy to draw my own characters on top of maps and writing everything, so i used a freaking ton of OCs i found online as character pieces. possibly controversial to some, but i never passed them off as my own and knew i’d never be able to draw or show artwork of them in any posts online i made about the campaign cause they aren’t my characters. so unfortunately, i cannot make or post artwork of player character Periwinkle the Pangolin making out with her witch girlfriend Rosaline the Fox. i did make this little guy though: Georgie Greenhorne, the deer, and avid child scout. he has several badges.

anyway decided to finally make use of this account to post something of substance and then probably nothing else.

i also found this old meme i made about one of my player’s Forces OC (the brown dog) and mine, who appeared in the campaign as the CANONICAL BUDDY near the end to fist bump with knuckles. i also have this cursed lanolin with no fluff in the back. check it out. tell your friends.

Fander Fic Rec Friday (#2) (Tagging these #fander fic rec friday if anyone else wants to join in to share some recs of their own.)

Three Days at Castle Winterburg by Odaigahara Fairytale AU (Intrulogical) Rating: M Logan has lived his entire life without experiencing fear. Never one content to be lacking in knowledge, he sets out on a quest to learn it. His search brings him to the haunted Castle Winterburg, and several bizarre encounters with the malicious entity within. Notes: This is basically an Intrulogical retelling of "The Story of the Youth Who Went Forth to Learn What Fear Was" (but with a much more interesting ending). One of my absolute favorites. The Touch Transcends Language series by IfFoundPleaseReturnToJanus (Bluewic) Fantasy/Modern with Magic (Anxceit) Rating: E Janus is a fae prince taken captive by hunters, Virgil is a hunter on the outs with his peers. Neither speaks the other's language, but when they wind up cornered by a common enemy they have to find some way to communicate in order to survive. Notes: I don't read a lot of smut (nor is romantic Anxceit usually to my tastes), so it speaks to the plot in this "Porn with Plot" that it managed to reel me in. A story about two individuals navigating an intense infatuation when they can't speak the other's language was pretty unique. Not to mention the all the other character interactions later on, which were extremely enjoyable. (As a slight warning, Roman takes a very antagonistic role in this series, which may not be to everyone's liking.) Coffee by HorseCrazyWriter76 Coffee shop AU* (Gen) Rating: G This is a Very Normal Coffee Shop AU. Notes: *Look, I don't know how to describe this one without giving away the fun. I can offer an unreality warning, but that's about it. The Ghost Janus AU series by SoDoRoses (FairyChess) Supernatural AU (Dukeceit, LAMP) Rating: T Remus is a ghost obsessed eccentric who has just bought his dream home (i.e. one that is definitely haunted) and Janus is his thoroughly deceased new roommate. It's a love story. Notes: One of my favorites/most re-read fics. Was inspired to re-read it once again by the next fic on the list.

WIPs You Haunt Me and I Like It by sevenstevearmy Supernatural AU (Analogical, Royality) Rating: M Logan and Roman are roommates, Virgil is the ghost haunting their apartment. After Logan and Virgil fall for one another, they proceed to fake a "long distance" relationship to keep Logan's friends from suspecting that he's dating a ghost. (Which is a lot less funny than it sounds when mental health struggles and insecurity decide to get in the way.) failed bounties and fresh bonds by delimeful Fantasy AU (Gen) Rating: T Virgil is a child giant living on his own in the woods. Remus is the hunter the villagers send after the "monster" living on their borders. Note: Adoption fic with protective Remus. Sanders sides but as centaurs by Annadekiller Modern AU/Slavery AU (Gen) Rating: Not Rated (see notes) Dystopian AU where centaurs exist and despite being sapient are treated as beasts of burden. After meeting Logan, Thomas does what he can to save the abused centaur from torment. And then it happens again. And again... Notes: Saw this one so many times before I actually gave it a look. If I were going to put a rating on it, I'd put it at an M for occasional violence and brief but frequent depictions of torture and abuse. Lots of hurt/comfort, though. The worldbuilding is interesting, and the occasional forays into crime drama were kind of an unexpected treat.

Nigeria’s Simidele Adeagbo Set To Make History In Bobsleigh

According to her, the feat is a testament to hard work, hoping it will inspire the younger generation of girls.

Simidele Adeagbo is set to make history as the first African to participate in bobsleigh at the BMW IBSF World Championship in Winterburg, Germany.

“This weekend I will make history for Nigeria🇳🇬 as the 1st African athlete to compete in bobsleigh at the BMW IBSF World Chams,” she wrote on her X account.

“This is the FIRST time ever the continent of Africa will be represented in bobsleigh at a World Champs in the 100 years since @ibsfsliding was founded.

“I want to take a moment to celebrate this significant barrier that took a century to break. Too often our historic contributions are not recognized, undervalued, and forgotten. So as we celebrate BHM, I’m honored to write another chapter in the new future of sport.”

According to her, the feat is a testament to hard work, hoping it will inspire the younger generation of girls.

“This first will be forever recorded in history, paving the way for greater access and inclusion in the primarily Eurocentric, male-dominated sport of bobsleigh. This historic moment is a testament to hard work and dreaming more than others think is practical,” Simidele wrote.

“As I break this barrier on the ice, through the work of the @simisleighsfoundation, I continue to break the barriers that limit women and girls’ opportunities to reach their full potential”.

I just love my "wtf-face" and "realy-bitch? Realy?-face" in pic 2 & 3 xD 🤷‍♀️ @hagen.photographer . Once again an insight into the fightinghour at durmstrang 🤺 . Here you can see the hardworking students learn how to hold a magic wand correctly and the basics of dueling.🤼‍♀️ Anouk is obviously not impressed by the show. . She has therefore promptly stretched the bow incorrectly, which made sure that Uhr teacher dies a little bit inside 🙈😵🤦‍♀️ But shooting - she can. . . #master #teacher #teachinglesson #arrow #arrowandbow #bow #shooting #medival #20thcentury #durmstrang #durmstranginstitute #school #schooluniform #teaching #harrypotter #harrypotterlarp #magic #rauhnächte #rauhnächtelarp #winterburg #harrypotterworld #wand #magicwand #schoolofwitchery #witcher #ciri #whitehair #grannyhair #badhairday #winterland https://www.instagram.com/p/CBvfI8gHJt1/?igshid=11u3rhc1cuhl4
