#but it's a MYTHICAL creature

[astrugglingacademic]

Guys. Listen. Zhongli angst?? Or whump? Somebody just straight up saw off his horns.

#dragons have horns okay #technically they don't need them because horns only exist on prey animals #but it's a MYTHICAL creature #brought to life #and it's a status symbol i feel like #so take them away and it would be shameful and EMBARRASSING #also permanent #because antlers grow back #but not horns #never horns #zhongli #genshin impact #arlo's #zhongli angst #zhongli whump #rex lapis

The funniest thing in the world to me is when people write mermaids that are bothered by humans eating fish. Like do you think fish don’t eat each other? The ocean is full of little freaks that will eat whatever or whoever the fuck will fit in their mouths. If the mermaids haven’t been eating fish this whole time what do you think they’ve been eating? If the answer is humans, that doesn’t make it any less funny. They’ll eat the species that looks like the top half of them but won’t eat a species that looks like the bottom half? Peak comedy.

#mermaids #mythical creatures #edit: #okay a lot of you have had good ideas about why mermaids possibly would be bothered by humans eating fish #so i will amend my original statement to say it’s funny and it doesn’t make any sense #unless you outright in-universe explain it #like don’t just fall back on the excuse of bUT tHeIR OUr unDERsEa BrOTherS #make it a part of their culture or physiology #if they haven’t been eating fish explain what they HAVE been eating and why #make it interesting

Sea dragons are a gentle breed, and rarely come into conflict with humans - they will, however, absolutely wreck your sandcastles.

I MEAN but wouldn't that be an incredible isekai series??

a modern princess whose job is basically just being a beautiful figurehead

grows bored with her vapid role in life and withdraws from society, riddled with ennui

only to fall into a fantasy realm where princesses have real political power

as well as important responsibilities that her subjects depend upon

and at first it's a comedy of errors as she realizes that none of her training prepared her for this

but then she grows as a person and applies herself to learning how to guide and guard this kingdom

and becomes the powerful and just princess she was always meant to be

...so I guess apparently my new favorite conspiracy theory is that kate's shoujo manga just underwent a MASSIVE genre switch.

#realistic royal meet-cutes are OUT fantasy realms in need of strong leadership are IN #I don't know what the hell is in WOW I've never played it I just made up a fantasy realm in my head #I'm an American so being anti-monarchist is in my blood #but along with the magic and mythical creatures part of the fantasy is that monarchies are cool here #so that's all right #kategate #kate middleton

Happy #AniMonday ! While on a Blue Sky studios project, this test proposed how our mythical creature Astaria would look while flying. We wanted something visually fun and different, so we went with a flatworm.

Mew but- but god.

General concept for this "redesign":

Mew is like a forgotten creation God, sure there are references here and there about them but they're never directly mentioned. They're implied to exist but no one's really sure ya know?

Nowadays they just wander about, playing little pranks and messing around for the most part.

Arceus had shaped the universe with it's thousand arms and Mew gave the universe life by scattering it's soul.
