#Anius

[amiti-art]

I was reading about Apollo's lovers and why is no one here talking about Rhoeo/Rhoio?

Like come on

"I'm so sorry your dad is so terrible, honey. Wanna live on my sacred Island instead?"

And he saved her sisters too???? And turned them into goddesses????

And he was rising their son himself???

And apparently Apollo had no problem with Rhoeo marrying his apprentice??? And Zarex adopted Anius??? And they had 2 more childern??? (I saw the 2 extra children only being mentioned on Wikipedia tho, so if anyone have other source talking about them please share with me 🙏🏻)

Also, Zarex was grandson of Chiron and Chariclo who is said to be Apollo's daughter (in some versions of the myth at least) which makes Apollo Zarex's great grandfather.

And Anius later become the king of Delos (you know the same island where Apollo WAS BORN) and also his father's priest 🥺🥺🥺

Why is no one talking about this??? Look I love Hyacinthus, Cyrene and Admetus, but we're sleeping on some good stories.

Anyway, Rhoeo is now on my top 5 Apollo's lovers list. Slay queen

Edit: I drew them -> Rhoeo, Anius Zarex

please tell me about the headcannons for the First Ninja 🙏

!!! ;D Since you asked so nicely! ;3 uuuuhhhhhh lets see...some of my personal headcanons for First are:

He is baby of Norisu Clan, aka the Youngest child.

He barely remembers his parents, for they died when he was young (courtesy to Sorcerer and thus one of the many reasons Norisu Clan sought to defeat him), so he was mostly raised by his Oldest Siblings.

When he was younger (toddler-ish age), he was dotted upon by his older siblings, so he was kind of a brat, since he was used to being center of attention and being taken care of (tho he grew out of it pretty fast).

When he was younger (more teenager years) his hair used to be longer and he wore it in topknot (think Samurai Jack style).

And all of his Siblings were gone, he cut his hair off to honor their sacrifice and make a promise to finally defeat the Sorcerer (think sorta that Zuko scene from ATLA lol).

So, when we see First in Flashback of Ultimate Lesson, with his tiny ponytail, its (canonically i think?) several years after inprisonment of Sorcerer, that little tuft is what managed to grow back. (cause i think its interesting that we never see First out of the Ninja Suit in 13th Century Ninja episode)

Speaking of 13th Century Ninja episode(I both love and hate that episode so much man): I headcanon that most of First's behaviour can be explained by stress and despair he started to feel after loosing his siblings (also probably mild sleep deprivation from nightmares and ptsd). Which was why he seemingly 'gave up' so easily (like ??? ugh).

The other contributing factor is First being confronted by unrelenting dumb optimism/hope of Randy and suddenly strongly reminded First of himself, when he was younger and still believed his clan could defeat the Sorcerer and how he was that same ray of hope for his older siblings who were becoming weary from the battles. But he is older now, and no optimism or hope helped to save his siblings from the ultimate sacrifice, so he understands that darkness his family tried to protect him from much better now.

So basically I like to think younger First was a lot like Randy in many ways, especially in that assurance/confidence that any mistake can be fixed.

First is a great sea farer! Canonically, Norisu clan followed Sorcerer across the sea (according to Secrets of the 9 i think?), so they would have spent months/if not years at sea. And if First was young, it would have left a great impression on him, that expierence and time on the open waters.

That man can not cook to save his life, and he lost most of his appetite after his family's sacrifice, that's why he is rather scrawny.

First is not the best Ninja of Norisu Clan. He grew up in the protective shadow of his more talented and powerful Older Siblings, who in turn taught him everything they knew. So he might not be the most powerful of his Norisu Siblings, but he is the most rounded in his abilities and the most balanced one. ;)

hmmm i think im done for now ;D ask me later for more, maybe i'll have some more concrete ideas ;)

#que? #rc9gn first ninja #first ninja #rc9gn #i also have a couple headcanons for norisu clan in general. plop plop and etc. but i decided not to overload the post haha #maybe will write it out later #note: Aniue (japanese) is an archaic version of respectful address to an older sibling (typicaly brother) #i thought it would be more fitting than Aniki or Onii-sama

The old design of the White Wolf

Okay, let's talk about this beautiful character. The official novel described the White Wolf as a male, Simon Wells (the director of the original Balto) described the White Wolf as a male and as a symbolic character. Let's look at how this character looked in early versions.

This is how it looks in the script. Pretty simple design.

This design clearly was based on the script's version. Still looks masculine.

Here you also can see awesome storyboards by Harald Siepermann, and there already those epic moments we can see in the final film, but there also were interesting moments. How the White Wolf gently comforts Balto, how there's symbolic moment — in the beginning the White Wolf howls in the blizzard among tiny sunrises (or light of lantern) before interaction with despaired Balto, while in the end of this scene Balto embraces his wolf ancestory and howls in the same pose after the White Wolf disapperas in the wind, but among calm snowstorm and under the sun. Yep, more hints that the White Wolf wasn't real, but a metaphor of Balto's wolf half, his true self. And another design by Harald Siepermann. The White Wolf looks pretty old and severe for sure.

And probably exactly this design became the base for this one in storyboards.

So, yes, the White Wolf from the original Balto was always a male. And a metaphor.

P.s. By the way, you can notice that in both the movie, the script and in the novel Balto feels and shows fear and shame during his first meet with the White Wolf. So, this one fact immediately debunks the idea of the White Wolf being Balto's parent. Balto doesn't know this wolf. Not to mention, how the White Wolf is absolutely silent, and that Simon Wells himself joked in interview "If it was really his dad, why didn't the old man help him drag the antitoxin up the cliff?". The script also confirms the White Wolf being a male.

TW: incest

Anon sent:

codependency..is so very tasty..🫠..i can just imagine jing yuan trying his best to be the only one who reader needs. he only needs you, so you don’t need anyone but him.

You usually seek any kind of validation from your brother, until you realize you have physical needs that your brother cannot ever tend to. You look for intimacy from someone else, someone who is LIKE big brother, and jing yuan helps you understand (truly just gaslighting) that you don’t want someone who is like him, BUT HIM.

——

(I’ve changed the formatting in your ask, I’m very sorry —- I love this idea and picturing it but I’m in a mood where I don’t really want to address feminine pronouns right now for inserts)

Exactly!! I love big brothers who manipulate their younger sibling into reciprocating their feelings 😔 and Jing Yuan would be perfect for that role. He’s got such a way with words, with subtly maneuvering everything in such a way that you always play right into his hands.

You grew up much like Jing Yuan in the realm-keeping division, so you are not without your own cunning and smarts. But Jing Yuan has realized that your biggest fault is your trust- your trust makes you blindsighted, letting your brother get away with things that no one else would because you never second guess his intentions.

You’re naive. You haven’t lived nearly as long as Jing Yuan, so you are temptingly innocent in a way that he takes full advantage of. You want someone to get physical with someone…? Tell your gege, he is the only person you can trust with this sort of thing, you know!

He’d try to sway you off the path of outer help at first. He isn’t shy at all as he boldly buys you toys, tells you that this should help with your urges. And he rests uneasily knowing that you’re using such filthy things, but this is the best method. Keeps him away from you and keeps you away from others.

But what about someone to hold hands with? Someone to hold? Just anyone at all to touch, to have an intimacy with. Of course you’re beginning to yearn for such things- he yearns for them too. More than you know. So trust your gege and come to him when you have such innocent urges. There’s no harm in being close! He loves to hold you, and he knows that you love to hold him, too. What’s better than being in the arms of someone you trust wholeheartedly?

(…and yet, it’s these innocent gestures that Jing Yuan would use to segue into more inappropriate touches. Ones that you never push away from. You must know by now that you can trust gege with anything…)

Commissions like this are available starting at $200 for single character (includes painted background)

.

You'll notice that while I used the same poses, I fixed the anatomy. I use realistic anatomy and whoever threw this scene together in the film didnt pay attention to the placement of each characters leg 🤣 When I was redrawing it, I had to use photos of real wolves howling because the cartoon was THAT off/weird anatomy.

.

I'll have to find new brushes for the next one I do because this didnt have the texture I wanted despite me trying to use stock paper textures to enhance the paint brush effect. Krita is also a pill to work with so because the program is only half functional, I spent 4 days of 8-12 hours of work on the full image including trying to make it look like oil/acrylic paint on paper rather than digital art. That failed so its overly obvious that its not painted on paper 😭 I need "paint brushes" that actually look like a swath of paint brushed on a piece of paper. Photoshop has them! Krita just doesnt play nice no matter how many mods I shove into it :( and I cant make old PS work with my Pixelbook/ChromeOS. Yes I installed it via Linux, however all the UI is super tiny and it wont register pen pressure. I hate how Adobe split old PS into a dozen different apps and requires a subscription to use them these days. I miss PS from 20 years ago.

“Yushiro said this was a really good one,” Senjuro whispered. “He said he would taste really good, because he’s rich.”  Kyojuro squeezed his eye shut and tilted his head back. He didn’t want to know about the victim. Somehow, it made it worse, knowing that Tamayo and Yushiro specifically chose certain humans for this, that they didn’t just kill and eat the first ones they stumbled across.  “He says it’s because rich people are better taken care of. They eat better food and more often, so they taste better,” Senjuro continued.  “Just like livestock,” Kyojuro rasped before he could stop himself.  Senjuro’s eyes lit up as he nodded. “Yeah! Just like that!” 

I know this is super traumatic for Kyojuro, but it's so amusing to me. Making Senjuro a demon while Kyojuro stays human for a couple years in the role swap AU is so fucking funny

#senjuro: aniue do you want to come hunting with me??? :D #kyojuro *desperately trying not to cry because he made his brother a monster*: y-yeah sure :') #it's okay kyo!!! thanks to tamayo's manipulation you end up hating all of humanity soon enough so it'll be fine :D #kimetsu no yaiba #kyojuro rengoku #senjuro rengoku #au: everyone bleeds red #kaz rambles

Here they are!!!

Their myth is super underrated so for those of you who never heard about them I made a post talking about their story -> Rhoeo's Myth

Quick summary: Rhoeo was Apollo's lover, he saved her life when her father wanted to kill her. Anius was their son, he was raised by Apollo and later became king of Delos and Apollo's priest. Zarex was Apollo's apprentice and he later married Rhoeo and adopted Anius

Those Rhoeo and Zarex's designs are showing them at the begining of the story, around the time Rhoeo was pregnant, I see them being in their early 20s back then. Zarex would 100% grow a beard as he got older (maybe I'll draw them older one day)

Anius is 15 yo here.

And now the headcanons!

• Rhoeo was a great musician, she had a beautiful voice and could play many instruments. It's the reason Apollo fell for her.

• Anius was born prematurely, that's why Rhoeo prayed to Apollo to save him.

• When Apollo was taking care of baby Anius, Zarex was making sure Rhoeo was doing allright and feeling comfortable on Delos, they bonded over their love for music.

• After almost dying when she was thrown to the sea in a wooden chest, Rhoeo was afraid of both water and small spaces, which made her avoid coming to the beach (which was a nightmer since Delos is a small island). Sometimes she would have nightmers about being traped in a chest again, it would cause her to wake up in the middle of the night and even tho her room was quite big she would feel trapped and go sleep rest of the night outside. Apollo and Zarex would try their best two help her overcome her traumas.

• One source claimed Rhoeo and Zarex had 2 childern together but their gender were not specified so I propose: twins, a boy and a girl. Can you imagine? Them having twins, when they were living on Delos? The same island Apollo and Artemis was born? Perfection

Puppy Balto with his mother and father.

Out of the blue I just got the idea for this. As for my headcanons about how his parents met, how they fell in love and what ended up happening to them? Idk. I don't have any. This was mainly done because I wanted to try designing Balto's father (his name is Nanook btw).

For Aniu I used the design of the white wolf from the original instead of the Balto 2 design (and yes I know there's been a lot of debate about wether the white wolf in the first one actually was Aniu or not but I always liked to think it was).

For Nanook, well as you can see he's almost the spitting image of his son. I basically took Balto and redesigned him to be more husky-like.

The White Wolf was a male in Balto (1995): CASE CLOSED

Let's again talk about the White Wolf from "Balto". The official novel described the White Wolf as a male, Simon Wells confirms the White Wolf being a male in interview, all storyboards and concept arts depicted the White Wolf as a male.

So, what's about the scripts? Well, the script reveals that the White Wolf was a male as well.

Hence, the White Wolf was always a male and a symbol of Balto's wolf side and his self-acceptance.

Finally, case closed. The truth about this character is finally revealed.
