Stephen Rooney deserves to feel pride in how he wrote Astarion's climactic scene. Every single option of dialogue is just gut-wrenching. What an amazing writer 🩷
Perhaps it had nothing to do with her knowledge of the issue. Snakes, for example, enjoyed devouring poultry with loosened jaws. The sting of stomach acid was the last thing your beautiful tiny beak would welcome before burning the mask of flesh from your bone and shitting you out.
You were much more attractive as a skeleton, in any case... Back in certain decades, you could always fashion the pieces into a lovely pleasuring device. This was child's play; you should see what happens to the macho auras around the she-beast. Feel fortunate, would you?!
It was a system thing, you know? She simply needed to get it out. The other was so fucking bitchy, it was surprising that no one else shanked her. Her claws dug so deeply that blood flowed from where her hands clutched. " You have been extremely obnoxious recently, and I feel the need to remind you of your stance. "
The panic was like a sugary dessert that caused cavities. Rotting the teeth with pressure as your nerves screamed for help.
Nobody can hear you. Who on Earth would care enough to put a stop to this? Everyone assumed you were a fucking joke regardless. " And do not seek to summon the barbarian. I doubt he would honestly oppose me. They claim that men never get over their first spouses. "
Now she would chuckle, the full lunacy spilling through with the piercing of the pen. A classic, no? Martha Stewart would have been pleased when the golden blood paint fluttered around, coating everything it could.
" Don't be such an INFANT. Sinners have greater dignity. I honestly anticipated better from you, LUTE ! Why can't you act like a true, powerful woman? "
Was not she just a deranged fuck? She would twist the writing instrument harshly before releasing her grip. " Just shut up. It will mend."
She would release once she was delighted with the reaction, lurking over the bird, ready to swallow her whole if she crossed the boundary.
Había ocasiones en que la tensión podía cortarse con un cuchillo en ese comedor, un claro ejemplo era ese momento donde su pareja había llamado a todos sus hijos para una "reunión". Esperó a que todos estuviesen sentados frente a Sakwon para posicionarse detrás de sus hijos, liberando una suave carga de feromonas para aligerar el ambiente y que la tensión en los hombros de los tres menores menguara lentamente "—entonces... ¿la reunión matutina con el abuelo no salió tan bien?—" Consultó en un intento de darle pie al discurso que seguro vendría ¿Cómo suponía que por ahí se dirigían los tiros? Sencillamente porque Sakwon había llegado con el rostro contraído en una mueca apenas había regresado de la casa del anciano.
i’ll make this my last eclipse post but i’m thinking ab my own culture’s beliefs about the eclipse, what it symbolizes, our traditions surrounding what we do for it, and tying that to maybe what different clans on pandora probably would think about the eclipses they regularly experience… so i’m gonna rant ab my thoughts a little below
this has made me think about the differences skorakstxey would note in traditions and beliefs towards eclipses among the omatikaya, anurai, tawkami, metkayina, and also would he even remember what the sarentu believed about them? would he have to connect to a tarsyu so entu, his direct ancestor, could give him the answers he seeks?
would maybe a clan like the anurai take the time during eclipses to perform certain rituals regarding their worship and reverence of thanators? im getting this idea from the fact in the events that led entu to become the first toruk makto, he spent the night in the anurai clan’s territory, and during the night, the clan performed their ritual of constructing a thanator totem. so perhaps the moments of ‘darkness’ (not truly darkness as we experienced it, due to pandora’s luminescence) would be more meaningful?
i’m sure the clans tie the eclipses back to eywa as well, i’m just also sure that they must be very meaningful in different ways to na’vi and i feel like these experiences especially would stick with skora while telling his stories of traveling around pandora
❝ oh, uh, i'll have to pass on karaoke, thanks for the offer though. ❞
yu waves his hands mercifully at rise, pleading for her to take pity on him after the embarrassment that was the king's game. he was surprised that they were even allowed to be here still, rise's influence or not. if dojima knew what they were doing... he shivers at the thought. shaking the thought away from his mind, yu looked back up at the idol.
❝ maybe we should just go back to the hotel, you know, get some shut eye... ❞
Congratulations all your muses are now 100% forklift certified 👍
Give the man who cannot see a certification to operate a forklift.. a stunning development surely. Should he consider this a feat of stupidity at its peak or a mere prank played on him for no better reason than having nothing else to do this day?
⥊ " If you insist.. "
-----------------------------
He didn't even use the forklift than his own tremendous power but no one saw him do it. Either way, he was bored enough to perform a 'earth job' for the hell of it.
-----------------------------
Who gives a falcon a forklift certificate.
-----------------------------
Stacks everything like a massive stack of cards.
-----------------------------
So long as it pays the damn bills.
-----------------------------
14 casualties, 23 injured.
-----------------------------
Easily the most boring job she's had to do but could be worse. She could absolutely have done it by herself with her brawn but apparently the lowly creatures of Earth seem to possess very little strength and have to rely on these machines to do the work for them.
-----------------------------
A necessary part to open the door to heaven.
-----------------------------
Meticulously trying to make everything be as perfect as possible while trying not to think about the many times he tried to win the crane game and kept coming up shorthanded with nothing but an empty claw.
-----------------------------
A worthless piece of paper. This world will bow down to the power of a new Saiyan empire and know to submit to its masters.
-----------------------------
In a matter of minutes, the full extent of his plot will unfold and it'll all look like a tragic accident while the master behind the strings remains in plain view. A treasure to obtain, the cure to his itch for a delightful slaughter burned beneath the composure of meticulous fingertips, laying the proverbial dominoes up to be knocked down at his own behest when the moment arrived to the slow ticking of the clock.
-----------------------------
This is not part of his usual duties but there could be some use to be had should the circumstance ever arise.
