Saw a pin on pinterest that said something about conflicting character tropes/traits and I have one.... super competitive but super bad at everything they're competing in.

Ok so the thing with Feyre’s shape shifting; I have so many logistical questions about that, mainly in regards to conception and pregnancy. But one in particular that’s been circling my brain is how she was in Illyrian form when she conceived Nyx. Like yeah ok fine, that’s great, but…if she was an entirely different species when she conceived him…is she actually genetically related to him while in high fae form or any other form for that matter?

Hear me out.

It’s not like with Rhys, where she just sprouts some extra appendages courtesy of faerie magic, but stays high fae. If I’m understanding the books correctly, the whole reason Nyx even has wings is because he is technically 3/4 Illyrian because Feyre was an entirely different species while she conceived him and therefore most likely inherited the wings from her, not Rhys (Rhys is half Illyrian and even he wasn’t born with wings).

So all that being said…

Is she like not genetically his mom anymore when she’s in high fae form or any other form that’s not Illyrian? Not saying that this makes her any less his mother on an intrinsic level, but biologically?

This isn’t of huge importance or super integral to plot or anything, I was just curious

I'm re-reading the Discworld series for reasons, and honestly the most relatable part of reading these as an adult is how many of the protagonists start out being tired, used to their little routine and vaguely disgruntled by the interruption of the Plot. Sam Vimes wants to lie drunk in a gutter and absolutely doesn't want to be arresting dragons. Rincewind is yanked into every situation he's ever encountered, though he'd much rather be lying in a gutter too. (Minus the alcohol. Plus regretting everything he's ever done said witnessed or even heard about fourth-hand in his whole life.) Granny Weatherwax is deeply suspicious of foreign parts and that includes the next town over; Nanny has leaned into the armor of "nothing ever happens to jolly grannies who terrorize their daughters-in-law and make Saucy Jokes"

Only the young people don't seem to have picked up on this---and that's fortunate, because someone has to run around making things happen, if only so Vimes and Granny and Rincewind have a reason to get up (complaining bitterly the whole time) and put it all to rights. Without Carrot, Margrat, Eric, etc. these characters don't have that reason; they're likely to stay in the metaphorical gutter and keep wondering where it all went wrong or why anything has to change.

............well, that's not quite true. You get the sense that Vetinari knows how much certain people hate the Plot. And as the person sitting behind the metaphorical lighting board of Ankh-Morpork, he takes no small pleasure in forcing the Plot-haters specifically to stand up, and say some lines.

#I finished guards guards just yesterday and I forgot that vimes and wonse were set up to be mirror images #both boys from the shades of very different natures; who made good (ish) in wildly different ways #also it's interesting reading this books from an adult perspective; my mind isn't blown that these books exist #anymore; plus I've read so many good books since #and they're not perfectly constructed novels! especially these early books; #there are plenty of spots where I can feel the narrative get thin; where there's more handwaving than I remember #but each book IS better and tighter; the jokes are funnier and the irony sharpens; the footnotes are better utilized #the characters are getting more interesting and complicated as opposed to set-ups for jokes. #it's an illustration of someone getting better at their chosen field and that in itself is more impressive than I was anticipating. #discworld

चरित्र निर्माणमा नयाँ पुस्ताको मेहनत

कलाकारितामा आफ्नो चरित्रलाई जीवन्त बनाउन कालाकारले गरिरहेको मेहनतको चर्चा हुन् थालेको छ । बाहिरी आवरणमा मात्र परिवर्तन ल्याउने कलाकार अहिले चरित्रमा बाच्न थालेका छन् । डिजिटल प्लेटफर्म’ हरुको लोकप्रियता बढेसँगै आफूले निर्वाह गर्ने भूमिकालाई बुझ्न भाषा सिक्ने, स्थानीयसँग घुलमिल हुने, अध्यनगर्ने शैली अधिकांश नयाँ पिंढीका कलाकारमा देखिन थालेको छ । प्रायःफिल्ममा अभिनय उस्तै भएपछि ‘टाइप कास्ट’ को आरोप…

The last Zonai Ganondorf pic I did was pretty well-received so I did some more :) Aka where I keep adding more jewelry and make my life harder.

Totk!Ganon is great and all but the scene in Twilight Princess where his Triforce of Power awakens and he breaks out of the chains is still one of the coolest moments he's ever had, so I drew that scene here haha

most anarchists don't outright say they want to abolish building codes (or organisations) - but, practically, when the question of enforcement comes down to it, it's a different story. building codes that are not enforced are not building codes, they're fun suggestions. if you are not ensuring that all, in this case wheelchair ramps, are up to code, you functionally do not have building codes. it's the same issue as with organisation - without a concept of democratic centralism, 'what if the organisation decides to do something that a small subset disagree with' generally receives no solution other than just 'those people just won't do what the organisation decides', which in practice means there does not exist an organisation at all, just a group of people who currently happen to all agree on something, and will disintegrate when they stop happening to agree. in practice there can be no actual collective action, no ensuring wide conformity to codes and programs, without some form of central authority to make reference to. 'just let the village's Ramp Inspecting enthusiast decide if it's fine' does not a building code make.

#this is again not even getting into the fact that this is an issue of governance and not the state #where the continued existence of class struggle would further require building code enforcement have a proletarian state character to it #for the duration of the period of socialist construction
