This was the kiss he’d been waiting for. It was a gunshot. It was prairie fire. It was the spin of Makker’s Wheel. Jesper felt the pounding of his heart—or was it Wylan’s?—like a stampede in his chest, and the only thought in his head was a happy, startled, Oh.

so scar's first origin was totally a witch right?
he had these distinct particles, which people thought was for an Enderian, and in the ep he was hiding from the rain, but 1.) the particles are wrong (enderian are more powdery and slowly fall down, while his sparkle and fly up) and 2.) he literally swam in water later and was fine.
but i just downloaded the modpack and got a random origin, which looked. familiar.
same particles and everything. so i looked at what i got and it turned out to be the witch,
so i think it's totally what he got. aside from the particles, if you don't use your ability or drink a potion, all it does is scare villagers. super easy to overlook. totally possible he just got it accidentally at the start and never noticed its effects before he died.

Hey! So I've been following you since you posted a lot about good omens in 2019ish? I remember you talking about wing fics vividly, but I just want to ask:
How are you doing after season 2?
Good! I enjoyed season 2, and I look forward to seeing how things resolve in season 3.
I think there are a lot of folks upset about various things, for various reasons, a lot of which boil down to "the season didn't go how I wanted it to/thought it should go" or "the season didn't end wrapped up neatly like S1 did." Neither of which, imo, are fair judgments of a season that a) isn't that person's story and b) was meant to be a bridge not an ending. Everyone is entitled to their opinions, of course, and to their feelings, but I do wonder how many have taken honest assessment of those feelings and opinions.
In my opinion, it's unfair to claim a story is bad JUST because it didn't do what you wanted it to do. It's not a bad story just because characters didn't act how you predicted or wanted, either. Some of the responses I've seen hinge almost entirely on "but canon didn't do what fanon/I decided is best" usually with the caveat of "before I even saw the season" and that's... ignoble at best. It's fair to criticize poor storytelling, but I feel like you have to have the whole story, or most of it, to do that, and we don't have that. We're actually smack in the middle of the story, by my judgment.
This season was never meant to be The Whole Story, we have known for a long time that there is a season 3 planned (whether or not it's ever able to come to fruition is a separate issue, it has been planned since a long time ago). As such, I don't think it's fair at all to the story to be angry that the season didn't stop at a nice, neat, happily-ever-after, because this isn't the end of the story.
To quote one of my favorite authors, Peter S. Beagle: "Things must happen when it is time for them to happen. Quests may not simply be abandoned; prophecies may not be left to rot like unpicked fruit; unicorns may go unrescued for a very long time, but not forever. The happy ending cannot come in the middle of the story."
They cannot have a happy ending until they've fixed the problems, and even before the end scene there, problems abounded. The unicorns are still unrescued. It's still the middle of the story.

I often see people saying there should be more fat character acceptance and appreciation but also so commonly see some of those same people only expressing that by drawing characters that aren't fat as fat but then not giving any of the actual official fat characters such as Eggman and Big any love at all in comparison. sad :(
like they've been very commonly hated, clowned on, or overlooked for being fat so maybe embracing and appreciating them for being official fat characters is a start if you wanna spread that message Idk. they're perfect examples that fat characters can be cool, lovable, strong, full fledged characters and not just punchlines and more
I know it's not everyone but sometimes I feel like the sentiment only applies to characters they find attractive/aesthetically appealing whatever for some, which kinda goes against the messaging, since you have such specific terms for it to be something you're interested in depicting. like only when you think they're cool/attractive enough

HL Incorrect Quote #81
*after Ominis and Sebastian had a fight*
Garreth: I've got an idea! I'm gonna send a note to Sebastian, and say it's from Ominis who wants to apologize. Then everyone will be friends again!
MC: I've gotta say, Garreth. You continue to impress me with your ideas.
Garreth: Eh, it's a gift!
*Garreth writes the note and sends it to Sebastian via owl*
Sebastian, one second after reading it and going over to Garreth & MC: I know this is from you, Garreth! Ominis can't write!
*Sebastian storms out*
MC: ...I can't believe we forgot Ominis can't write...
Garreth: Yup, we're idiots...
