When people get a little too gung-ho about-
wait. cancel post. gung-ho cannot be English. where did that phrase come from? China?
ok, yes. gōnghé, which is…an abbreviation for “industrial cooperative”? Like it was just a term for a worker-run organization? A specific U.S. marine stationed in China interpreted it as a motivational slogan about teamwork, and as a commander he got his whole battalion using it, and other U.S. marines found those guys so exhausting that it migrated into English slang with the meaning “overly enthusiastic”.
That’s…wild. What was I talking about?

"Finally, this nightmare of a thousand years is at its end.
Inheritor of my Crest... if this body is to decay, then the sword...
I leave it to you."

Paper Lady Amalthea from The Last Unicorn! The previous time I made her, I used one of my favorite papers on her hair, and was veeery tempted to use it again this time. But ultimately, I went with this paper - the cresting white waves seemed very fitting to evoke the sea into which the unicorns were driven, and from which they emerge.
