Aleksandr Vvedensky "Sweath"
Tumblr media
I found a translation
Part one
The sons were standing near the wall flashing their spur-shod feet. They were elated and said:
Make it public now father What is Sweath in terms of matter.
The father, flashing his eyes, replied to them:
You sons should never mix Day of the end, daughter of spring. Scary, blue and hoary's Sweath. I'm your angel. I'm a father. Its severity I know, And my death will shortly come. On my head there are a-gaping Bald spots, temples high — dejection. And if life does its very best Then soon there will be nothing left Neither church mouse nor hair. It seems my death will shortly come. It seems mind out dejection.
The sons, having rung bells, pealed their tongues:
But this is not what we want to know, We our thoughts like palace bring forth. Will you just tell us now father What is Sweath in terms of matter.
And exclaimed the father: Synaxarion, And Synaxarion's essential is God. Sink into sleep my sons, Stand at gaze for dreams.
The sons went to bed. Hiding mushrooms in their pocket. It seemed, the walls, even they were obedient. Ah, who cares what seemed. But all in all to us like to them not much seemed. But hark! What's this? The father had been evasive when answering the question again. And this is what he said to his newly awoken sons, exclaiming and flashing his brows:
Let Hoary folk all sing and dance. Wave their hands Like a man.
On a peaceful day of bliss You run out. Quite soon death's fineness I'll perceive.
The horses dash by like waves, Shoes chatter. The jaunty steeds are full of fever Away haste.
But where to comprehend a way, Are all men mortal? What will you tell me second split Am I to understand you?
The bed is there before me, I'll quietly lie. Assimilate near the wall With flowers and a flag.
Sons, sons. My hour's coming. I'm dying. I'm dying. Don't take the steamboat, All is washed-up.
The sons, lined up, flashing their feet, begin to dance quadrille. First son, same as first couple:
What is Sweath in terms of matter Please do tell me now father.
Second son, same as second couple:
Could it be that Sweath is lead And a baby and a wreath.
Third son, same as third couple:
Father I can't understand Where is he? who is Sweath?
The father, flashing his eyes, moans ferociously:
Oh I in pillows with no stir.
First son:
Eh father, murmur I concur. You're not to die, You should firstly curge reply.
Second son, dancing like a loyal subject:
Ah, Sweath, Sweath, Sweath. Ah, father, father, father.
And the third son, dancing like a shot:
Dolls are all body a cap, I'm canoe canoe canap.
The sons cease to dance - having a good time shouldn't last forever, and silently and quietly sit down near father's faded-out bed. They stare into his withering eyes. They want to reiterate through it all. The father is dying. He becomes large like a bunch of grapes. We find it terrifying to stare into his, as the phrase is, face. Each son secretly and soundlessly enters their own superstitious wall. Sweath is the cold sweat coming out of a dead man's forehead. It's death's dew, this is what Sweath is.

My birthday was a couple days ago, and I got to see my bio dad for the first time in a while. He surprised me with the fact that I have a little half-sister, whom I've never met and who was adopted about two years back. So, I wondered if any situations in BB mimic this or have a theme of "secret siblings" or "secret family"? Sorry if this is a weird ask; this blog is honestly just such a cool little place and I love the way you approach the subject matter and take the flawed misogynistic foundation of the WC books and make them so much better (JUSTICE FOR BUMBLE!!!). I've also learned a lot about healthy and unhealthy relationships here and am really glad for your deep dives on Squilf and Bramble. Thanks, Bones!
Not weird at all! I really like exploring all the little nooks and crannies of complicated familial dynamics. I think one of the untapped strengths of WC (that the writers seem to be unaware of) is how their MASSIVE cast allows them to present all sorts of unique dynamics. So I like to pick up on it, since they don't.
For secret siblings...
I'm pretty heavily leaning towards Ambermoon being adopted by Wildfur, as a surrogacy. Something feels correct about it. Especially since Icecloud is getting retooled into a post-Battle of the True Eclipse birth, and a major supporting character in AVoS-era stories as a friend of Alderheart.
Thinking about it, I should zoom in and expand this. Maybe have Icecloud, somehow, acquire forbidden knowledge that would invalidate the Queen’s Rights and he (transman) struggles with if he's going to use it to expose his parents as an excuse to help Ambermoon.
(Especially since Ambermoon and Icecloud are basically nothing alike. Amber is independent, bold, and vain. Ice is jessie pinkman big-hearted, disorganized, and deceptively meek if you look past his "chill" demeanor)
But that's wip-- there's also Breezepelt and the Three, who are going to have an actual friendship. In particular I can't unsee Breeze and Lion having a deep one. I know I commit the Cardinal Sin of borderline himbo-ifying Lionblaze in BB, but I can't help it.
Hollyleaf ended up nabbing a bunch of his most violent roles to make her villainous descent smoother narratively, so BB!Lionblaze's story ends up being more focused on Ashfur's abuse, comic relief with cats in other Clans (something that the very serious Jay and Holly have a hard time providing), and the emotional fallout of the big reveal and Bramblestar's turn on them. Breezepelt slots neatly into that.
They were friends. Lionblaze's whole life came down around the reveal, everyone looking at him and his siblings differently, like they're suddenly something terrible. Why can't we find a silver lining, Breezepelt? Why can't we call ourselves brothers if the whole world is going to do it anyway? So much is changing, but THIS doesn't have to, we will take their weapon and turn it to armor, my ally, my friend, my brother.
(and when Breezepelt is lashing out at the three because of the Dark Forest's influence, Lionblaze is there, taking the blows and trying not to give in to the impulse to send him flying with a single paw)
There's also Harespring and Kestrelflight of WindClan and Owlclaw of ShadowClan. All of them are from a single litter between Whitewater and Mudclaw. She was going to raise the three of them alone as ShadowClan cats, but when the sire was smote, Whitewater felt they were cursed.
She was able to give the oldest two to their bio-uncle, Torear, but the weather was so bad that day and the runt was so sickly and small that it surely would have killed him. I don't think Owlclaw ever finds out why his mother always treated him with suspicion, but it did mess him up horribly.
Over in BB!DOTC, Thunder Storm is getting more half-siblings earlier. Clear Sky and Falling Feather had two daughters-- Pale Sky and Tiger Sky.
I want to explore the way that the various stages of Clear Sky's life acted on his kids. How any little curiosity Thunder Storm had about the life he might have had if he wasn't abandoned is crushed by seeing kittens who weren't. How Clear's favoritism of his oldest child set the trio against each other from the start. How this idea of "love" is toxic yet intoxicating.
It feels good to be the golden child. The power it gives you over his sycophants is satisfying. To know you, and you alone, have what someone else craves. Problem is, that's conditional, and it's cruel.
What Thunder Storm learns from his time with his biodad is that Clear Sky is not his father at all. He's taught him exactly what he DOESN'T want to be. There may be similarities-- in temperament, in physical prowess (though BB!Thunder is three-legged, he's still ripped), in taste and senses. But Thunder Storm's father is Shaded Flower.
(BB!Gray Wing died in the first book, rescuing Shaded Flower from being trampled by a horse. Xey're a patron of wisdom, Shaded Moss is taking the role of fatherhood to Thunder)
His sister is Rainswept Flower. His mom is Bright Storm. If there was a bond he could have had with Tiger Sky and Pale Sky, it dies simply and cruelly on the knife they used to cut each other out.
Pale might have wanted to mend it, she was the gentler one. But she dies in the First Battle along with her mother. Tiger Sky is too stubborn to accept any help, should Thunderstar offer it, and Thunderstar isn't in the business of begging for others to like him.
Naturally I'm lowkey obsessed with them lmao. I need to make a BB!DOTC overviewww
#I have a perspective on half siblings colored by a dynamic in my family#The generation above me has two siblings who had an awful biodad and an amazing stepdad (who did officially adopt them)#And there was nothing ''natural'' or good about how one of them was obsessed with their biodad.#It was influenced by his surroundings and did nothing but drag an incredibly toxic man back into his sister's life#Over and over#But anyway the son used to tell me ''theres no half in siblings''#The daughter adored her halfbrother through the mother who raised them-- but was adamant that her biodad's newer kids were nothing to her#I guess I agree with the son. But not in the way he believes it#There's no half in siblings because you either Are. Or you are Not.#You have a shared experience with having that person as a parent or you don't. And that's what's unchanging.#It's not the blood; it's the sweat and tears. But anyhoo#Personal details of my life aside#Tiger Sky and Pale Sky are Clear's Dead Angel Fetus Children in-canon. I think that was Weird.#So instead I made them. Not. Dead angel fetus children....#They're characters now lmaoo#Better bones au#I think Tiger Sky (i call her Tigs in my head a lot) is one of my favorite kit saves ever though#She's not going to be from the last litter either. I haven't picked who the mom is yet but he does have even more#At least one of those is going to make a grab at power but um. Sparrow Heart will not react Well.#BASICALLY lads I'm cooking. My revamps of the DOTC characters basically write themselves because I am very fond of them.#Clear's youngest: ''OH I JUST CANT WAIT TO BE KI-"#Sparrowstar: ''-lled.''

I can tell someone at Brains Base had a thing for eye close ups. /j. (There’s a lot of shots between these ovas that are similar but I find this the funniest coincidence similarity)

Naruto shippuden things that made me lose my mind (ep 244-260):
Dark naruto my beloved 🖤 (I wish naruto could externalize these thoughts to someone else and they could comfort him so he wouldn't have to comfort himself)
Kushina @ naruto: wow minato didn't tell u shit
There's something very... unsettling? To me about minato. I think maybe it's just bc bad writing but something feeling deeply wrong about him?
Child itachi: don't worry, sasuke, I'll protect u (I think they're framing this as a sweet moment but it just feels sad and fucked up and sinister bc itachi u literally r going to create a monster. Like u meant well in ur own fucked logic but u hurt him so so bad)
Kushina, dying: naruto, stay the fuck away from lord jiraiya
Kisame, confronting his impending doom: I choose death by shark attack
Tobi, on his way out the door to murder someone and desecrate a corpse: kabuto don't do anything fucked up while I'm gone
I can't take Kabuto seriously in that snake hoodie???
In Madara secret hide out of horrors he has a chamber of eyeballs, a mutieyed beast that sucks the souls from jinchuriki, 100,000 lil white soldiers, and the petrified remains of hashirama. What a fucking place to live.
Everytime we find a new character with part of hashirama in them, it only gets funnier
Spend 20 episodes traveling to keep naruto safe then just fucking instantly their position is compromised lmao
I would like everyone to stop lying to naruto, please
Yamatoooooo in the belly of a snake :'(((
7yr old naruto: what were my parents like? The 3rd hokage: fuck off. Bye.
The writers: what if we reanimated the original Naruto but gave kakashi smaller hair?
