#Strange Static

[meticulouslymindlessart]

Thetis with the arms of Achilles

I saw several mosaics depicting this motive and decided to try my hand at it as well.

Also, I just find Thetis to be quite interesting as a character. There’s gotta be something fundamentally Tragic about raising a child, knowing that he will most likely die very young.

#There is this strange (culturally catholic I think) thought to draw parallels between her and the virgin Mary #but I don’t know how to properly articulate or build on this idea… #Also #sidenote #but I’m cursing Homer for having the ekphrases in the iliad be more living scene than static image #thus making it very difficult to draw them #art #digital art #digital painting #greek mythology #greek mythology art #tagamemnon #the iliad #Thetis

THE MADMAN DID IT

#jay-reid #submission #now in color #bus au #kokichi oma #chihiro fujisaki #insane work ethic hghgd #i appreciate the noise/static when he's fainting because that is exactly what it looks like #for someone who's passed the fuck out 10293 times it's strange i didn't think of it asdkfn #but it looks super cool #i also love the pink on his bandages #i imagine he's always losing his balance even with his cane #so his knees and elbows get the brunt

I’ve returned from my sketchbook quest , and here’s a drawing for dauntless-daffodil , who came up with the idea for the spear baby au.

AWWWWWW~

oh gods looking at that cute little innocent face i can just FEEEEEEL baby spear watching as chaggie and the hotel all stand around them hotly debating What Food Is Even Healthy For A Baby Spear Spawn Child To Be Eating

Charlie: "A cookie??"

Angel Dust: "They don' need cookies, ya useless gays, they need milk!"

Charlie: "We had cookies in the hotel??"

Vaggie: "Why would they need milk? They've got teeth already! Fangs, even!"

Angel Dust: "That ain't how nutrition an' shit WORKS toots!"

Niffty: (shakes jar full of money) "SWEAR JAR!"

Angel Dust: "Fuck. Shit." (hands over three dollars)

Charlie: "Since when are there cookies in the hotel that I don't know know about???"

Cherri: "If they've got fangs and like chewing stuff, maybe they need meat or something?"

Niffty: "OR BLOOD!!!"

Vaggie: "We are NOT-"

Angel Dust: "Ain't no baby under my watch gettin' fed steaks and BLOOD!"

Charlie: "Where did the cookie even COME from?!"

Husk: (coughs)

Charlie: "Husk! You gave them-?"

Husk: "....bar's always got snacks. And they were just. Staring at me."

Angel Dust: "Husky noooooo....!"

Vaggie: "How? I did a double sweep for undeclared cookies just two days ago- you KNOW what Charlie does to your bar if she goes snack hunting in the middle of night and actually finds something. She's like an adorable cookie gremlin."

Charlie: "Heheh!"

Husk: "Yeah well, she's not the only one allowed to like f- fffffffudging cookies. And your kid seems to take after her, so whatever."

Angel Dust: "Baby cat, that's no reason ta- oh for cryin' out loud, now what Vaggot?"

Vaggie: "...what? I didn't say anything."

Charlie: "Vaggieee, you're smiling~"

Vaggie: "Huh?"

Husk: "Like a dumb... dumb."

Niffty: "Beaming! Grinning! AS WIDE AS A SLIT THROAT-"

Cherri: "-fuck fuck fuck, shit shit, damn crap hell- here, take my money and don't fucking talk like THAT in front of the kid either, what the fuck."

Angel Dust: "Sickening."

Niffty: "Thanks!"

Angel Dust: "I meant Darth Vaggie getting all googey eye'd over her an' Charlie chip having a kid."

Charlie: "Oh so you think they're my kid too, huh?"

Angel Dust: "Are ya gonna let Vaggie raise 'em without ya?"

Charlie: "No~pe~!!!"

Angel Dust: "Then congrats on parenthood ta both of ya, it's already going to hell."

Vaggie: "Okay, uh-"

Husk: "You're gonna fffffeathering cry again."

Vaggie: "-no I'm not, I'm just glad the... my kid isn't still crying. Our kid. They, really are pretty happy with the cookie aren't they?"

Charlie: "Of course they are! It's CHOCOLATE CHIP!!"

Angel Dust: "It's not. Baby food."

Charlie: "It is if it's my baby, and they get milk to go with the cookie!"

Angel Dust: "V-gal, stop her! Use ya dang mom veto!!"

Vaggie: "Eh. Charlie was a hellborn kid and she grew up fine. I trust her."

Charlie: "AWww!!!"

Angel Dust: "Unbelievable."

Husk: "Whipped."

Vaggie: "Yeah? My kid didn't even have to say anything to get a cookie out of you, fluff boy."

Cherri: "Uh, guys.... gays...?"

Husk: "What."

Charlie & Vaggie: "What?"

Angel Dust: "Both and speaking, baby."

Cherri: "Where did..... the baby go...?"

Hotel crew: "....."

Place where baby was: (empty except for crumbs)

Spear Baby: (gone)

Vaggie: (wings bristling) "The-"

Charlie: "OUR!"

Vaggie: "Our-"

Demon Charlie: "-BABY!?"

Niffty: "MOTHER OF FUCK." (throws down swear jar) (tries throwing herself onto the broken shards but angel dust and husk grab her)

-meanwhile, elsewhere in the hotel-

Alastor: (walking quickly)

Spear Baby: (crawling after him)

Alastor: "....shoo."

Spear Baby: "Guh!"

Alastor: (nervous sweating) (walks FASTER)

I realize it has been approximately 800 years and I am sorry for that (though I am very excited about the new novel!), but I am pleased to report that I am finally working on chapter 10 of the unknown and static strange (Dreamling/The Sandman) and chapter 9 of in the land of snow and shadow (Fivan/Shadow and Bone season 3). The latter is closer to completion and might be posted this weekend, but yes. Maybe the fic muse will (slowly) return to me. We will see.

#hilary for ts #dreamling #the unknown and static strange #fivan #in the land of snow and shadow #i have not been on here much for the last week or so and i also have a bunch of asks etc #i can't promise that i will have the willpower to answer them #(trying to take a break from politics because /waves hand/ you know. The Horrors) #but i can at least present you with long overdue fic chapters #like a cat carrying a dead mouse #so yes

[secondbeatsongs]

okay, look. I can put up with my mic getting turned off when my mini fridge runs. I can even deal with my controller turning off when I plug in a space heater, or my computer monitor turning to static whenever I stand up from my desk (even though I don't really understand it).

but what I cannot put up with, is the fact that when my mini fridge turned off just now, my firefox color scheme reset, which is something that has never happened before

what the fuck is wrong with my wiring?

#personal #electricity #just #help me #this is so fucking strange #what is going on? #like #the space heater thing makes sense #the fridge thing and the mic _can_ make sense #the standing up from the desk thing. I dunno. static electricity? no idea #probably something #but the fucking firefox color scheme? #what the fuck is going on? #did I like...anger a ghost or something? #is this me being haunted?

An offer:

They spoke for a time, she praised his deeds and strength, offering him a place in her world, where he would be respected and feared. A world where he would be loved as he was before his destruction

Sexiest Podcast Character — Scripted Bracket — Round 3

Propaganda

Frankly, Everyone. Take Ur Pick (The Strange Case of Starship Iris):

too much for my bisexual heart

Static Man (Archive 81):

Everyone knows the sexiest possible man is a frat boy made entirely of teeth

I've never heard of this Dracula podcast but if you choose a classic vampire over the amorphous cloud of radio/tv static and teeth then you're monsterfucking game is weak and you are a coward.

Don’t forget that our boy Static Man is made out of static as well as teeth, loves Popeye’s fried chicken, and is quite the Pokémon fan!

(Finished!) Fan art for the fic “The Unknown And Static Strange” by @qqueenofhades

Link - https://archiveofourown.org/works/45673276/chapters/114935725

it is /amazing/. Go read if you like ““I’m going to write my fav doing my job” in the best way possible. Deeply academic ( and amnesiac?) Hob hunts down missing-and-presumed-dead Dream though magically appearing medieval artworks?! It’s so rich and vibrant, many, many heart emojis worthy.

do people not understand how time works?

Arena happens *after* snw. i.e. the crew of the starship enterprise realize the reasoning/personhood of the gorn in TOS, not before. that was a big breakthrough, praised by the weird angel aliens. Kirk did a good, novel, thing. I dont understand why people are demanding pike and crew realize the true nature of the gorn, now. that isnt how time works. let them be wrong. let the federation suck. pike isn't perfect, that is the point.

similarly the federation in snw times will be more flawed than in ds9 or tos. they havent made that progress, yet. let the characters go on a journey. this is still baby federation created in living memory. they think they have no flaws, but we, the audience, can see them. that is the point.

#let kirk and spock be examples of empathy #you dont need to erase the good things that happened in tos #just to make sure snw shows an unblemished version of the federation #the interesting things about stories about utopia is the journey #how they deal or dont deal with difficult issues #and how they are blind to their flaws #star trek isnt a static thing #snw #star trek strange new worlds #strange new worlds #star trek tos

"The delightful question in place of a statement." "Tristan always did love to pose questions as statements to evoke a deeper thought or threat." My writing style for Tristan felt remarkably called out after reading these. @noblehcart

#Noblehcart #In my defense: This isn't baseless. #Tristan definitely does this once during the show. #Arguably twice. #Arguably. #If I push the limits of my interpretation of Oliver's intonation. #I might have turned it into much more of a present element with the passage of time. #One more obligatory allusion to the strange consequences of exploring a character with limited appearances for an extended period of time. #And the equilibrium between fidelity to their voice and the necessity to allow it to grow and not keeping it static. #In any case #It was very entertaining to see someone noticing one of Tristan's quirks.

Summary: It’s a full-page illumination, beautifully inked and bordered with gilt, sparkling as if the paint was mixed with gems – and apparently, completely misfiled. It’s not unthinkable; curators are human, mistakes are made, manuscripts get incorrectly categorized or put in the wrong box for years and then there’s some big drama when someone finally looks at it and realizes what it actually is. But this doesn’t look a thing like the rest of the Speculum, and Hob’s hands shake as he snatches it up. What the fuck?

He smooths it out on the desk and stares at it. It’s clear at a glance that this is a rare and probably priceless treasure, but he can’t place it as any standard-issue Bible scene. Indeed, the illustration features only one person: a strange, slender man, dark-haired and pale-faced and unearthly beautiful, with eyes that seem to stare directly out of the vellum and into Hob’s soul. He is dressed all in black, a huge ruby hangs around his neck, and a raven perches on his shoulder. The Latin inscription beneath, in an elegant late-Gothic hand, reads Regis Somnorum. In other words, King of Sleep, or perhaps also King of Dreams. What the fuck?!
