good morning. neuvillette with a dragon!child!reader who, once everything blows over in fontaine, goes to find furina and gives her the biggest hug. they've known her for a very long time. and many times, perhaps she almost, almost cracked to them... but her resolve stood strong every time, and she would backtrack with a laugh and some dramatic flair.

while they can't understand how badly she must have suffered, because they aren't human and their mind is not so fragile, they can at least imagine it. and they can't help but think that maybe she doesn't want to be alone right now; she's been alone for five hundred years. if she wants to be left alone... that's fine, and they know she'll tell them that, but at the very least, as one of her best friends (perhaps her very best one), should they not go check on her?

idk i'm going to play her story quest today probably so i will return with more thoughts!

#aphelion speaks 🌸 #this post is not about neuvi i am sorry for leading you all on like that 🙏🙏🙏 /lh #EVERYONE. GO APOLOGIZE TO FURINA. RIGJT FUCKING NOW. APOLOGIZE TO HER. #LIKE. HOLY SHIT. #i felt so bad for her that i almost CRIED and i am not even exaggerating #i know we are all so enamored by neuvillette and how he genuinely loves the people of fontaine #but can we PLEASE take a moment to talk about *furina* and her love for her people? #because holy shit. holy shit dude. #she must have been so so so lonely for so long #but she KEPT ON. RELENTLESSLY. FOR FIVE HUNDRED YEARS. #yknow #i know the whole point was to destroy the throne and the position of “archon” #but.... man. furina is fontaine's archon and she always was. as far as i'm concerned. #she persevered out of love for those like her and even went as far as to relentlessly + #+ do her own research into what was causing the disaster #she tried so hard. and fucking NO ONE apologized to her yet. #FURINA LIKER AND DEFENDER APHELION REAL 🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣

how are you doing? ❤️ i missed your art!

idk how to answer that question anymore lol, i guess the most neutral thing i can say is that i remain unchanged – which is a bad thing, really, i guess, but ehhh it is what it is

i miss my art too. or rather, i miss making it

#i bought some more painting supplies a while back so i'm hoping i'll have the spoons to do something with those #it probably won't be anything anyone online wants to see bc it's gonna be just some non-fandom self-indulgent bullshit #but hey there's one good thing about not having drawn almost anything in five years: i no longer give a shit about engagement #so that's neat #i can just do whatever and if you like it that's cool but if not idgaf

Excerpt from Tradewinds, coming January 31st:

A sudden, heavy flapping sound; distressed wing-beats. Matan looked up, alarmed, to see Udir in true-form, winging low towards the caravans at speed. Matan saw dark flecks of liquid shaken off Udir’s body with every stroke of his wings. He was bleeding. He’d been wounded. Pale yellow eyes barely took him in, a beak open and sharp tongue panting. Instead of executing a neat landing, Udir slammed straight into the second caravan, leaving a smear of blood on the tarp. He fell in a flutter of wings as Matan rushed towards him. ‘Udir! Are you all right?’ The great, injured bird said nothing. A patch of ivory-cream feathers on Udir’s chest were stained dark with blood. Udir wasn’t shifting back into hybrid or human-form because he was in too much pain. Everyone knew that when a shifter wouldn’t change back, they were trying to use their true-form to handle the worst of an injury. ‘Hey,’ Matan said, making his voice soothing. ‘Hey it’s okay. It’s going to be all right.’ He had no idea what he was talking about. He stiffened and looked around for any signs of birds or fae approaching, anyone who wanted to do them harm. There was no one around. He carefully tried to reach for Udir, wanting to pull him out of the churned up dirt at least, but Udir’s hooked beak went for him, snapping weakly. Then he stumbled, a wing stretching out to stop him from falling sideways. Matan clambered up the second caravan, ready to wake Biani and Mara, when Red and Kaulo arrived – huge shadows in the sky that made Matan cringe and feel a terrible, primitive fear. They landed, changing into human-form immediately. ‘Pack up! We’re leaving now!’ Kaulo shouted, and he disappeared into the second caravan. ‘Come here, Udir,’ Red said, approaching Udir, a stern look on his face. Udir wasn’t listening to any of them, eyes wild. Red didn’t flinch when he took a nasty beak slash to the arm. His movements were steady as he firmly grasped Udir in his hands. ‘That’s it,’ Red said softly, arm bleeding as Udir struggled in his grip. ‘We’re getting out of here, Udir. Calm down.’

Hurt/comfort in a Fae Tales story? It's more likely than you'd think!

It's so hard to be a Sports Fan when there are Bros out there who are also Sports Fans, and they just open their fucking mouths and type with their lil keyboard fingers and you're suddenly punched in the face like the physical manifestation of rancid sweat and dirty socks in a gym's locker room

Mick hadn’t thought anything of it, weeks ago, when Mats made the group chat and sent a PDF with two tickets for a Dortmund game. Now that he’s been watching Mats shift closer and closer to Seb on the couch, it’s dawning on him that he should have.

this could not exist without @andreagrimes who is also deeply unwell about our favorite almost 2m tall bumblebee. special thank you to @janinaduszejko and @prettydangrotten for betaing and fixing the plot and encouraging me to let that [redacted] [redacted] that old man (men).

1 . On The Other Side of Mahal's Halls: They walked a-ways before Gimli noticed that Legolas's fingers were trembling in his grip.

2 . And In The Darkness To Unmake Them: Upon the ringing of the bell, Frodo fell into step beside Bilbo and together the two Hobbits followed Gandalf out to the porch where Frodo had spoken with his friends the evening before.

3 . Dead Faces In The Water; Dead Faces Everywhere: It started, at least in Mirkwood, when the king came home.

4 . To Live In Undying Lands: Gulls wheeled overhead and for once their cries did not pierce through Legolas’s heart like the blades of cold knives.

5 . The Last Temptation of Narvi of Khazad-dûm: Narvi flings the whole mess—sketches, gemstones, glittering metal bands, sheafs of scrap-paper covered in tiny terrible runes—down on the workbench and glowers.

6 . Within A Lonely Mountain Dark With Cold And Shadow: So this was how it ended.

7 . Will the Waves Carry Me Away? Thirty-five years, and Gimli still disliked riding horseback.

8. No Living Dwarf: When the Fellowship passed through the Doors of Durin, they found themselves walking in a tomb.

9 . Dream In Colors Borrowed From The Sea: My name is Aximili-Esgarrouth-Isthill.

10 . Blows Uncounted: Legolas lost count.

Okay but somebody has to talk about the way Brennan including an in-world storyteller at the top of the first scene in the first episode of main campaign, vaguely name-dropping world geography and some of the lore on the different casters, is MASTERFUL exposition.

I also can't get what seem to be Umora's version of sorcerers and warlocks out of my brain. Warlocks, okay, making a deal with a spirit makes sense makes sense.

BUT.

SORCERERS BEING THE CHILD/DESCENDANT OF HUMANS AND SPIRITS??

I want. Give me. Give me nowwww. I want a character (NPC or Guest PC) who is the child of a human and a Wild One like Eursulon who lost their spirit nature. I want the product of star-crossed lovers and MORE TRAPPED SPIRITS. The mechanics of that whole process [as explained in the Children's Adventure, Episode 5, not specified here so I don't have to tag spoilers] is so fascinating.

The mark of excellent fantasy/speculative fiction worldbuilding for me? When I can start speculating at the possibilities. When there are so many possibilities that your brain starts to populate the world with unfathomable diversity without that ever being spelled out to you.

#worlds beyond number #no but seriously using the diegetic fascination of children (and Eursulon) to give your worldbuilding a sense of wonder #like it's cool even to the people of Umora #And then the peddler being A BAD GUY??? #And the way I should have known he was bad because of how much he glorified the origin of wizards #People aren't talking about this opener nearly enough #Especially since it's the only Wild One content we got in the whole episode #AND I'M SORRY THE FIVE YEAR TIME JUMP? #Those who listened to WO preview knew that this was in the past #The moment I knew he still had Wave Breaker #But FIVE YEARSSS??? #Not cool Brennan Lee Mulligan #the wizard the witch and the wild one #eursulon #the wild one #queerlyvictorian posts

[fruit-colored-ninja]

I think for me the thing about ninjago that’s its defining trait is that like. there’s always going to be more villains. like yeah there’s literally always going to be more villains because this show just won’t fucking end, but also, the central theme of the show is that there’s always going to be more villains. they’ve acknowledged numerous times that the balance between good and evil is a balance, that every time they defeat the newest big bad there’s going to eventually be something new and terrible that fills the void left behind, and that nothing they do is ever going to change this, but that doesn’t make the victories they do win any less meaningful. It’s about finding hope in the darkest moments, it’s about just barely making it through some of the darkest shit ever and still knowing that there’s probably something even worse somewhere on the horizon and still choosing to celebrate because even if there’s no way to truly win, to secure a permanent happily-ever-after, they still won this time around. and that’s still something worth celebrating.

#i'm ignoring crystallized and also the fact that this show has maybe actually ended for the sake of this post so just go with it pls #i shotgunned all of seasons 8 and 9 last night instead of sleeping and those seasons are so insanely good and i am full of emotions and #i can't think about anything else and That is what this post is about #not whatever happened in the newest season. i actually dont really remember but i think i'm directly contradicting it at least a little here #i have like five variations of this essay in my drafts right now lmao but i think this one is the most coherent #ninjago #jdgjsfhsfgjdfjgdg i've lost my mind guys truly

Why are so many people on Tumblr/Twitter claiming Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss are bad shows??? "They're not mid shows guys they're just bad" can y'all give me one concrete reason they're bad besides debunked "controversies" or things that other people told you were bad about em?

Like I'm halfway convinced all of these people claiming these are such bad shows and are annoyed about em haven't actually watched them - "I don't need to watch a show to know it's bad" pretty sure you do if you want to have an informed opinion, that goes for everything actually.

If you're annoyed by the hype and the fan culture?? That's fine we all got our things but that doesn't make the shows themselves bad I think y'all just like having someone to poke fun of without feeling like a bully and honestly?? That seems like a miserable way to live.

#This is specifically about that mid shows post going around #What other people like and consider good/bad/mid is none of your business and not a reason to make fun of them #Y'all think you're being SO progressive and kind when you're still being cruel to people online for the smallest shit #You don't like it?? Don't interact with it just block and move on #You curate your own internet experience it's not that hard #I don't like rwby or one piece and those come up on my dash all the time it's so easy to ignore and move on #I don't call those shows bad because surprise! I've never seen them so I don't know! #hazbin hotel #helluva boss #Y'all claim cringe culture is dead but still mock people who like “cringy” stuff like any of this is gonna matter in five years #And mark my words I'm gonna get called cringe or some shit for this post #When y'all should be thinking about why you take joy from calling people shit on the internet like it's gonna make you happy #Years long mutuals of mine are even jumping on the mockery bandwagon!! I've followed y'all for almost a decade what is going on
