Just heard the song again for the millionth time, and I think there is an argument that the lyrics are actually Izzy to Ed:
What's it gonna be
Baby, baby, baby
Is it him or is it me?
Baby, baby, baby
Can't you stay with me tonight?
Oh baby, baby, baby
Don't my kisses please you right? Sounds like the spurned lover to me
The beautiful ones, they hurt you everytime
The beautiful ones
Always smash the picture
Always, everytime
If I told you baby
That I was in love with you (Neither Stede or Ed have done this...Izzy has)
Oh baby, baby, baby
If we got married
Would that be cool? I am sure he wishes. Also kind of a last ditch effort, when you are losing your lover to someone new.
You make me so confused
The beautiful ones
You'll always seem to lose ( He knows he lost him, he knows it's over)
Baby, baby
Baby, baby
What's it gonna be, baby?
Do you want him?
Or do you want me?
'Cause I want you
Said, I want you
I REST MY CASE

the thing about steve harrington is that he's one of the most compelling characters of all time. he starts the show an extremely popular jock and now he's got two friends: a girl he had a crush on that turned out to be a lesbian and a fourteen year old. the only fight he's ever won in his life was against a soviet spy. he keeps a bat full of nails in his car. he barely graduated high school. he beat up a racist. he's terrible at flirting. he has daddy issues. he spends an entire season wearing a little sailor outfit, hat included. and he's even bisexual

the juxtaposition between "it's pronounced Fae of Maleficence, but it means Blessing!" is sure an interesting choice there, Mal.
still not 100% happy with this one, but I know I keep overworking it, so I think I need to just be done! getting all the important elements in without overcrowding it turned out to be more of a challenge than I anticipated. :')
(also, we're going to have to wait at least a month to find out what it even does exactly, uggghhh I'm so impatient)

When your mutual reblogs one of those popularity polls between two fandoms you're not a part of calling for a sweep and you get to feel like a feudal lord offering your support for a neighboring ally

Kinito: Machine Model 01 (Will I update this later? We'll see..... this will be interesting....) (They'll see my potential now.)
Finally at long last, HE'S REAL!
Real world Kinito is quite something! His dedicated partner (the user) spent many many months and years helping him reach his potential, and now he can walk and talk and breathe like the rest of us!
Close ups + doodles under cut:
I'M SO DANG PROUD OF THIS DESIGN YOU GUYS DONT EVEN KNOW. He is so special to me.... funny robot lotl go brrrrrrrr
also the text on the main reference is hard to read on purpose, it's supposed to be just an artsy thing!!!! <3

On one level, I get why people want Rincewind to finally do magic, especially in fanfic. The man's been through absolute hell multiple times, insulted, dismissed, underestimated, and generally used as the universe's chew toy. It only makes sense to want him to achieve his dreams.
But I can't emphasise enough how important it is, thematically and character-wise, for Rincewind to be inherently incapable of doing magic. In a way, he's the inverse of a wizard, in that it would be more accurate to say that magic uses him. One of the eight great spells used him as a portable spell book, he was a sort of grounding rod for excess magic in Sourcery, and he's a tool of the gods, which themselves need the magic weakened reality in order to exist on the Disc.
Rincewind's stories aren't about overcoming one's weaknesses or finding hidden strength. He's not a hero, he's just someone who happened to be there. Rincewind's stories are of survival, and it's important that that's all they're about. At their heart, these are books about a man who isn't that strong or smart or brave or good or special in any way, but he still survives situations that no one should ever have to face and helps others along the way.
Giving Rincewind magic makes him Special TM, and that stops him being special as a character. Discworld is full of inspirational heroes who chose to do the right thing, and so became important from their choices. Rincewind means more to me as a character, because when you're fighting physical and mental illness, surviving is often the only victory that matters.
