Sefa Expresses Regret To The South African High Commissioner For "Disrespecting" Her
Sefa Expresses Regret To The South African High Commissioner For “Disrespecting” Her
Some social media users saw Sefa’s behaviour at the 23rd Vodafone Ghana Music Awards as disrespectful when she forgot to receive her trophy for receiving the ‘Popular Afrobeats Song of the Year’ award before stepping nearer the microphone to deliver her remarks.
In a fresh development, Sefa apologised to and handed flowers to South Africa’s High Commissioner to Ghana, H.E Grace Jeanet Mason.

A while back I commissioned some art from @cadhla182 and it came out very well! The idea was that Nico and Laura had infiltrated an underground fighting ring before teaming up to take it down. A comment on the post of this on twitter about how mismatched the fight would be got me thinking... and thinking...
And I overthought it.
I ended up working out an entire powers-free MMA AU for the women of the Marvel Universe, complete with taking into account first appearances 'prime fighting' ages, and the like.
I've got SPREADSHEETS for this thing.
So, it turned out Nico and Laura are in different weight divisions. Nico's a Strawweight. Laura Kinney ended up in Flyweight.
So, I got to thinking -- who should Nico and Laura be matched against?
I managed to work out a list of top contenders in the various weight classes. Some would utterly trounce Nico even in an MMA AU, but others might be better matches. I can't decide myself, who do you think would be a good match for her?
Yes, I plan on commissioning this once the poll is over!
There are others in the division, but what I'm looking for is someone on her level, not someone who would overwhelm her. Specifically, Kate Pryde, Jeanet Foucault, Nadia Van Dyne, and Daisy Johnson round out the "Top 16" in that division.
"But what about--"
Probably not in that division, or you're thinking of a very obscure character,
"What about Janet Van Dyne?!"
Retired Champion, currently mentoring Nadia, but might be coaxed out of retirement for one more match...
If I can ever really round down a Top 8 from this list!
(What about Laura and her opponent? Well, that I've narrowed down to 4: Kate Bishop, Illyana Rasputina, Mantis, and Squirrel Girl -- but that's hopefully going to be easier to figure out...)
A new fairy tale in which friendship is the truest love of all.
Prince Nicolas rules the winter of the Northern Realm with a frosty attitude that chills all who look upon him, until the day a warm human woman enters his life unannounced. Lost and without memories to find her way home, Ann finds herself sharing the ice palace with the prickly prince. However, her visit has a time limit written into faerie law, and a deadly consequence should Nicolas allow her to stay beyond it.
All Ann wanted was to find her way home; all Nicolas wanted was to be left alone. Though circumstance brings them together, a shared longing to be seen and understood soon ties them to each other, and it is that bond which will decide their fates.

Reviews Say:
"Like Falling Stars made me wish I could go back to childhood and do it all over again, that I ... could pick up every fairytale on the shelf of my local library, and then add this one to the mix." - A. N. Casey
"Like Falling Stars is a sweet, fun read! It perfectly captures the mood of the season, and it mixes fairy tale elements with a more character-focused narrative with ease." - Jillian Maria
"[T]his is everything I think a modern take on old fairytale vibes and conventions needed and it's so good that I wish Disney would do a 2D adaptation of it." - Jeanet Henning

Hi, would you consider doing YouTube memberships (like jeanet does) for people who have difficulty joining patreon so that they can get the benefits?
Unfortunately, Youtube is verrry touchy about linking to things that violate their TOS, and that's almost entirely how my Patreon functions. And given how hard they side with the big copyright holders, hosting a bunch of violations under their nose makes me nervous. I'll have to ask how Jeanet runs hers though, she probably knows something I don't.
"Tão absurda e fugaz é a nossa passagem por esse mundo,que só em saber que fui autêntica,e que consegui ser o mais próximo de mim mesma me deixa tranquila."
