I didn’t want to sillypost on @eternityboxes’ earthsea quotes post but i immediately need to share this mental image of a fantasy SPCA sticker that came to me fully formed. Completely different vibe than Tenar’s line, sorry

#mt #earthsea #uklg #tehanu #tenar doesn’t have a minivan so it has to be a boatper sticker for ged’s boat #I forgot to draw therru so let’s pretend she took the photo #also if anyone knows how to rig a catboat sail correctly DON’T tell me #pretend the boat strings are not stressing you out

[benjhawkins]

My toxic trait is I want to own a catboat so badly but Pentecost keeps reminding me I don’t actually know how to sail

#I NEED it #been obsessed with catboats since we sailed on this one at mystic seaport

[zekk0kat]

constantly thinking about this drawing mal drew on gartic once

#he is so pathetic #i want to throw him #yes this is catboat #gartic phone

Introducing Spathi Eleftheriou (spah-th-ee eh-leh-f-theh-ree-oo), a Fire Emblem Three Houses OC for @fe-oc-week! It's been a hot minute since I tried to design an OC, and this is my first time for a Fire Emblem game (pls be nice im bby) (pls clap). It's been a lot of fun! They're def not a self-insert by any means, but they do share some aspects of my personality and ethnic background.

I know I'm super late to this, I felt so inspired by everyone's wonderful characters this year (esp @peachiehambo's Yoona and @wild-moss-art's Moss). Couldn't resist!!

More about Spathi after the cut!

Spathi hails from the seaside city of Alatisitou (ah-lah-tee-see-too) in southwestern Almyra, on windswept plains where wheat flows in golden waves, and scents of sage and marjoram carry forever on the wind.

They're the only child of a warm, close-knit family of farmers situated on the city outskirts, among the tumbling cliffs and endless highland valleys that eventually cascade down to the ocean. It's a fitting home for a kid born with dreams in their feet and salt spray in their hair; infinite possibilities and a wide, sun-soaked sky always offering new opportunities.

Growing up, they'd often be found spending their free time exploring the arcadian landscape, climbing through old ruins and cyprus groves, and occasionally ambling around the city proper to watch the sleek trading ships ply wares from far-flung lands.

They tend to be quiet and observant in public, but are extremely energetic, talkative, and personable with their friends, who would readily attest that Spathi is an indispensable one-person hype squad. You couldn't ask for someone better to gas you up when you're feeling down.

Their family grows wheat and olives in their humble fields and orchards for export and local sale. Spathi devotes themself to their family's well-being and works hard to ensure good harvests.

That's kinda all I've got so far, lol. Might add more to this later as other ideas come to mind! Some other broad stats for Spathi, in no particular order:

Their name translates to 'Sword of Freedom'

They're non-binary, their preferred pronouns are they/them and sometimes she/they

They're 19 years old when they enroll at Garreg Mach

They're 6'2" tall and are somewhat clumsy

They're passionate about breadmaking and all things bread-related

Their favorite flower is marigold

Their favorite spice is basil

Their favorite treat is mastic, a chewable resin from native trees with a bitter flavor that gives way to refreshing notes of pine and cedar (also delicious steeping into a cup of cool water!)

Their favorite tea is chamomile with a splash of wild honey and vanilla

They love to play the mandolin and pan flute, and they love to sing

They have a soft and sometimes raspy voice

They're a good sailor, though the family could never afford a ship larger than a catboat.

They fucking love boardgames dude!!!

At the academy, they have strong proficiencies with Sword, Faith, and Reason, and weak proficiency with Authority.

Anyway hope you like them!!

#no clue how they end up at the Academy so if anyone has ideas please lmk lolll #my art #my oc art #moonlightleafs art #fire emblem oc #fe3h oc #fe oc week #fire emblem 3 houses #fe3h #fe3h spathi

Hii, I was wondering if I could request a one shot of Jacob being saved from drowning by a reader who is a mermaid and spelt they begin to fall in love with him? If that’s okay? 💕

Blue waves were supposed to be beautiful and calming in the sea, a never ending serene view to the endless wonders and mysteries that hide below the surface.

How quickly that could change in a matter of minutes. The once sunny skies was unequivocally turned into a terrible storm, the large waves literally coming out of nowhere and there no time to act.

A broken piece of wood was the only thing keeping the man afloat, as he splutters out the water. His wet hair sticking to his eyes, the salty drops of water was altering his vision to his surroundings.

Jacob Holland had wanted to go on a small fishing trip, a bit of wanting to get away from the land life for a couple of days and some much needed relaxation time.

He promised Maisie that he would only be gone for three days and wouldn’t be too far off from the coast of where they lived. He made a catboat with his own hands and Maisie even drew a picture of her and Blue on the side, a way to show ownership if someone were to take it.

Two months of carving, shaving, and hammering all went down the drain when he encountered this storm.

He was beginning to get a bit nauseous from the violent rocking of the waves and laid his head on the piece of wood for a moment to catch his bearings.

Lightning and thundering was the only thing he could hear at the moment and it was growing the already agitated waves. Another wave crashed into Jacob and he held on tightly to the wood as he was suddenly under water then breaks the surface to breath.

Seeing that there was no end to the storm, Jacob kept up his search for a nearby ship, or some kind of help. It didn’t come fast enough for him, unfortunately, as another large wave, much more larger and much heavier than the last curling towards him.

The dark skies made the wave look as though it had razor sharp teeth and eyes as red as the devil’s. Jacob gulped in anticipation and gripped the plank much tighter.

“Bloody hell!” He curses and the wave hits him like a ton of bricks, instantly making everything go black.

Jacob’s body tosses and turns in the moving water as he floated slowly down further in the violent sea.

In the darkness of the sea, a silver fishtail swims through the quiet waters, smartly they steered clear of the terrible storm above surface.

(H/c) floated prettily behind the woman’s head and the sudden interest in the dark mass floating down made her tilt her head.

Y/n swam closer to the mass and jumped back when she realized that it was a human. Moving a bit closer, she could see bubbles leaving his parted lips and Y/n understood the situation in that second.

Grabbing around his waist, Y/n pulled him up to the surface with as much strength she had and grunted at how heavy he was.

Breaking the surface, Y/n pulls the man’s body up so that his head was at least above the water. She looks around to see where there would be any source of land and gasped when the shadow of a large wave appeared in front of her.

Diving under the surface again, Y/n moves the man away from the most violent part of the storm and is met with a dolphin.

They rub against Y/n playfully and swirls in a circle in happiness of finding their friend. Y/n shakes her head at the mammal and points to the human in her hold.

The dolphin chatters at her and is quick to place Jacob over it’s back, swimming above the surface again and taking him to the nearby coast.

Y/n looks down at the man, his golden hair laid damp over his eyes and she moved them to the side to see his face more clearly.

He was indeed handsome, but he didn’t need to be out here. That storm had been brewing for weeks and getting caught in it was basically signing over your death.

Once they reached the coast, Y/n takes the human from her dolphin friend and brings him onto the sandy beach, literally dragging herself and him as far as she could so he wouldn’t be taken by the current of the sea.

Leaning in close to his face, Y/n tilts her head to the side in confusion and then pinches his nose.

Holding his nose for a couple of seconds, his eyes popped open along with him coughing up water. He moves to the side to continue regurgitating the water and took a clean deep breath.

Holding a hand to his chest, Jacob turns to his left to see he was back on the edge of the coast, he could be home no less than a couple of hours.

He turned to his front and sees a woman no more than a meter emerged in the sea with a confused look on her face.

“Did you save me?” He asked standing to his feet.

She only flips her hair over her shoulder and continues staring.

“If you did, thank you. It was awful out there, took me boat out with one wave!” He tells her. She still said nothing but then smiled at the man.

Turning around, she moved in the sea more until it was submerging her shoulders leaving only her head above water level.

“Wait lass! It’s too dangerous out there, you could-“ his warning was cut short when she glanced at him over her shoulder with a smile then jumped into the sea, her silver fin gleaming for just a moment and disappearing into the water.

Jacob falls to his knees in disbelief and raises a hand to his forehead, possibly checking to see if he was sick or something.

“I was just rescued by a bloody mermaid.” He gasps and then blushes when he realized how beautiful she was.

“Damn.” He curses then stands to his feet again. Looking over his shoulder one more time, Jacob stares at the spot the mermaid was at then begins climbing up the hill leading back to where town was.

Y/n hid behind a large rock and grinned as she watched him go, her gills fluttered happily and she returned to the sea.

I hope this was okay because it was fun looking up what kind of boat he would use lol.

been thinking this for a while idk if i posted about it yet but the funniest thing about the catboat bit to me is that boat is so much more dog-like in personality. like a big dumb golden retriever or smth

#failboat #do you even understand #i have a very pathetic and energetic golden doodle so i know what im saying lol

[endless-formsmostbeautiful]

Beyond the grey bastions of Fort Adams a long-drawn sunset was splintering up into a thousand fires, and the radiance caught the sail of a catboat as it beat out through the channel between the Lime Rock and the shore.

4 ships

i only care about my own writing in that way and that's gonna be an essay so I'll just go with the other kind of ship

dau, dromon and karavell because I'm a big fan of Latin sails

carracks and galleons just have excellent shape in general, really can't go wrong with the big sailing ships now that i think about it... the modern ones too, even though i prefer when they have like a handful very big sails over a whole bunch of squares

+ shout out to catboats for being fun and cute

Tag Game: Your Writing Education

Thanks for the tag, @sarahlizziewrites!

About: What are some of the things your writing has inspired you to learn (more) about?

Botany and mycology are big ones, not only because of the biotech in TFA/Triad but because I have whole species of mushroom and tree people that I haven't really talked about yet. That and public transit are topics that have also been relevant/interesting to me outside of writing (though honestly anything I learn about for writing is slated to become a random thing I am more attuned to).

More specific things I've learned about include:

Patterns of hurricane formation

Catboats

Types of touchscreens

Potential problems with brick architecture

Arachnid and insect vascular/movement systems (whenever I have to read about spiders I turn off image loading in my browser. Just reading the words is generally not spooky to me. Also this was research for non-arachnid/insect species)

I'll tag @autumnalwalker and @rowanwriting (no pressure though!). Anyone who sees this post is welcome to jump in, too - tag me and I'll take a look at your post!
