#Nimble

Frames of complex scenes woven together

To help a record not seize to exist

Numerous pages worn out, brittle much

By the time I lose conscious unwillingly

A bundle for recollection of every encounter

While I have got my Anne of the Island out, I might take some pictures of it. I bought it from a secondhand bookshop and it was already in this slightly chewed condition. The stains to the cloth binding have darkened over the last few decades.

It's one of the books I reread from time to time but I've never bothered to get a new copy. No-one else would want this, in the state it's in; it'll be good enough to see me out. 😁

Did you all know that long ago, Neil's fans posted photos from the bath?

Welcome to Tumblr, 2012. Just as adorable and quirky as Tumblr of today, and with just as much Neil Gaiman appreciation, but with fewer fans to fuel the fads:

[link] [link]

(I went looking for Good Omens clues in the time capsule that is the internet, and Tumblr decided that it knew best and instead sent me down this rabbit hole from which I may never recover. 1 point to Tumblr; please send help)

Why were people doing this?? I think it's because there's a poem, Bathing with Gaiman, by Zenobia Frost @zenfrost

And it inspired a dedicated blog, @bathbookneil-blog, featuring an entire collection of fan photos reading his books… in the bath.

Neil encouraged fans to read their books "in the bath naked, fully dressed, they can be of any gender or all, masked, alone, or in groups of as many of them as can fit into a bath." He also suggested trying to read while showering, a feat he said he's attempted, unsuccessfully.

When asked, Neil agreed to share a photo of himself reading in the bath if the donations for the free Audible release of Click-Clack the Rattle Bag reached 100,000 downloads/dollars.

He promised fans a "proper nakedy bath" with some discreet bubbles.

Alas!

I'm not about to reveal a long-lost photo of Neil in the bath.

The donations didn't reach the goal, and the bath-photo-sharing trend quietly wound down.

But maybe he gave us this glorious moment with David Tennant-as-Aziraphale-as-Crowley, to make up for it:

redesigning my headcanon for Sebek's parents, based on important new information (SCALES)

(you can't see it but they're both wearing crocs)

#art #twisted wonderland #twisted wonderland spoilers #twisted wonderland episode 7 spoilers #twisted wonderland book 7 spoilers #they are truly the most inspiring love story of our generation #though i guess he's not dr. zigvolt since zigvolt is the clan name...#unless he took her name which i absolutely could see. why would you ever not want to be called zigvolt.#this does tie nicely in with my headcanon that sebek's siblings got more of the fae features than he did #and he has a Complex about it #i get the impression that sebek's siblings are much closer in age to each other and also have more of their dad's chill #so sebek is sort of the baby of the family and he's got a Complex about that too #i think a lot about the zigvolt family for characters who have never actually appeared #on the subject of actual canon though #i do actually really appreciate that both sebek and silver each had a little moment of reassuring each other #that this is 400 years ago and also incredibly unfortunate circumstances #and present-day reality lilia and baul love them very much #(i do think sebek is secretly baul's favorite grandkid)#it was just nice to see! especially from sebek! he is sometimes a very thoughtful boy and it's always nice to see that side of him #sebek trying SO hard to get baul to like him though 😭#and lilia being like 'aw i think you're getting kind of fond of him :)'#i love.

this post goes out to sally fucking jackson

the woman who stayed in an abusive relationship for years to keep her son safe.

the woman who survived a minotaur attack and the underworld.

the woman who ate a primarily blue diet out of pure spite.

the woman who turned her abusive husband into a statue and sold him for a fortune.

the woman who was offered, by poseidon, a palace under the sea if she wished.

the woman who picked up a shotgun from a police car, used it against a laistrygonian giant, and when asked when she learned how to use it, responded “just now”.

a woman who, without notice, was met by a newly-human god and his twelve year old master and, without batting an eye, offered them food and clothing.

a woman who is a mother above all mothers.

i love sally jackson.

I finished the third book. It's been a few days already but with work and stuff... Anyway now I'm digging through the additional content Nora posted on Tumblr, took me a while to understand how it works but now I am pleased.

I cannot express the emotionnal damage these books have done to me, but I'm not finished drawing any of the foxes. Just saying.

#WHERES THE FIC AT IF SOMEONE WRITES THIS I WILL PAY THEM A HUNDRED DOLLARS😭😭#kunikida serving the country while dazai's serving cunt😔#dazai was born to malewife but forced to manipulate and i think that's the greatest tragedy of bsd #anyway some facts i would like to share abt this au thay i came up w while drawing!!#takes place in 1939 (start of wwii) and there was a mandatory draft that required one male over eighteen from each house to serve #both of them are still twenty two and had been engaged for abt two years before getting married that year #newlyweds! unfortunately kuni had to go fight and they were seperated :(#before the war kunikida was a math teacher at the local high school and dazai obviously managed the household and didn't work #he's hopeless at cooking and meal prep even w recipie books so they either get those prepackaged meals or kuni makes dinner when he gets ba #so like when he's making lunch for kunikida he normally just packs a basic sandwich w raw fruit #kunikida always appreciates the effort even tho hes probably sick of having the same thing everyday but he won't complain abt it #when kunikida joined the army he was relieved that the mess hall had better food than dazai #he was the only one in his platoon that never complained abt the food so his fellow soldiers assumed it was bc he came from a tough bg #when in reality he was just used to being poisoned on a daily basis from his dumbass husbands cooking and was hardly fazed from army ration #they write to each other although its more dazai sending and kuni receiving bc hes off fighting and doesnt have time to write back #dazai talks abt life on the homefront and how he has to grow a victory garden (everything is DYING HE CANT EVEN RAISE TOMATOES)#and kuni writes abt his fellow soldiers and how the war is going and when he thinks he'll be home and how he misses sleeping in a bed #ANYWAY yea thought i'd share sry for infodumping in the tags again #this post is for like the four ppl that care abt this specific flavor of knkdz so hopefully this gets four notes at least #bungou stray dogs #bungo stray dogs #dazai osamu #osamu dazai #kunikida doppo #doppo kunikida #kunikidazai #knkdz #lotus draws #bro sry for posting at two in the morning i couldnt sleep until i got this out of my head they have infested my brain

Can we just appreciate Six of Crows for a moment?

Like, the characters each have their own elaborate backstories and reasons for wanting the money and the whole plot line is so well put together.

Also, it's just completely bonkers because one moment they're planning a heist and how to get back at Van Eck, and the next Kaz is making a "your mum" joke.

#appreciate leigh bardugo #she is a queen #can we hype up soc #books #fangirl #reading #six of crows #shadow and bone #kaz brekker #inej ghafa #nina zenik #matthias helvar #wylan van eck #jesper fahey

I want your opinion on something. Do you think it's better to try and the the cards of the character you like or skipping some to brench out? Like, say you're a fan of Leona. Should you try to get all of his bday card and stuff or stick to one and get other characters ssr?

personally, as much as I would like every single card...I gotta ration my keys, so I focus on my favorites!

which isn't to say that I only pull for certain characters no matter what! more that I take a good long look at every card that comes out and go "do I really want this one? like...really really want it?" (the answer is usually yes, but -- look, the art in this game is very pretty, okay)

honestly, from a gameplay standpoint, I think it doesn't matter too much whether you focus on pulling for specific characters or not. there are very, very few points where actually having a good mix of characters is important (Those Two Stages in episode 6, where I think you can use retry tickets for the easy mode? and also guest room battles if you care about those) and you'll probably end up with at least one halfway decent card per character just from doing 10-pulls and events. so even if you're only pulling for Leona cards, you'll still end up getting a bajillion other characters as well. follow your heart! chase that grumpy lion bliss! ✨🦁✨

#art #twisted wonderland #twisted wonderland spoilers #twisted wonderland episode 7 spoilers #twisted wonderland book 7 spoilers #tamashina mina #lost in the book with stitch #i. THINK that's everything that's not out in eng yet?#i am proud of my sons. my beautiful grampa sons.#you do also sometimes get random ssrs even without pickup odds! most of my ssrs are from trying to pull for other characters and failing :'#i've also gotten dorm trey like four or five times and. look. trey i like you and i appreciate the limit breaks.#but you keep showing up when i'm trying to get other boys and we need to talk about this #trey: hi! i heard you were in the market for a friend! :)#me: (desperately peering over his shoulder to where dorm lilia is slowly floating away) uh-huh. yep. sure. great.#dangit trey

Defense of Jason Todd

Your honor, my client was in his reputation era.

Your honor, his brothers already took parentified child and adultified child. Problem child was all that was left at that point.

Your honor, my client has what is called "the Cain instinct."

Your honor, everyone has wanted to kick Tim Drake's ass. As I will demonstrate this with my list of witnesses: Selina Kyle, Damian Wayne, flashpoint Thomas Wayne, Harley Quinn, and future Batman Tim.

Your honor, my client was raised by Batman.

Your honor, the fandom also wants Joker dead.

Your honor, my client was standing on business.

Your honor, my client was serving cunt.

cant stop thinking about Turtle because oh heavens he's so so sad i love him, i wish everything good upon him.

i keep thinking about My Love, Mine All Mine about him because he really only felt useful and real when he had his gift, but oh my gosh. the. ending.

SPOILERS FOR BOOK 9 BELOW vvv

I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT ENDING THERE'S NO WAY, it singlehandedly made me hate Darkstalker, i dont care if he's a good character, he took the one thing away from Turtle. the whole book was so agonizing and so sad and just. oh my gosh. my heart is broken.

im struggling thru Book 10 rn bc Qibli is so annoying i really don't like him that much and everytime he says smth bad abt Turtle, i go crazy. 😭😭

no one talks abt it but Qibli is like? super self centered? idk, i might like him but it's hard.

i would destroy everything for Turtle tho.

#my art #wings of fire #wof #wof turtle #wof book 9 #this is lowkey Qibli slander ngl #but mostly Turtle love and appreciation #do you guys see my vision
