I'm having a terrible day. I don't know what happened but it's just awful. So if people can use this post to talk about their pets or future projects they want to do or things they're interested in or they want to tell people about something they're proud of that would be great and help me remember that happiness is real and this stupid fucking humidity will go away soon (if yall want me to remove fandom tags I can. I just would love to hear people rant about things I love as well)

11. Blood at the corner of your mouth.
It is not your blood at the edge of your mouth. Not your blood that your tongue swipes from the corner of your lips.  Not your blood whose coppery tastes lingers between your teeth. 
But he fucking deserved it.
Sister Kindness has you tucked under her arm as she, to use her words, books it. Something she must not do often because she huffs and puffs her way through the crowded Shaded Bower. And though some call out ‘Sister’ to her with warm recognition she does not stop ‘booking’ it. (Sister Kindness would have you know that she is perfectly in shape for a woman of her age. She was ‘huffing and puffing’ from the extra weight of carrying you, thank you very much.)
She slows when the westshore pier appears around the corner and then she steps off the main path and sets you down. Kneeling to be something more like eye-level, she pulls a Roegadyn-sized handkerchief from the depths of her habit. Wetting a corner with a flask pulled from a separate, equally confusing pocket she begins to clean the blood from your face.
Sister Kindness’ hand is firm where it grips your chin, holding as little of you as possible. For once the contact does not send you recoiling. Perhaps it is the way your rage has left you as quickly as it had flooded you, leaving you feeling drained of everything else as well. Now that the moment has passed you tremble and, to your horror, you can feel a well of tears rising to fill that empty space.
“Was a helluva bite, darling girl,” Sister Kindness’s voice is quiet as she tilts your head to the light, searching for any blood she may have missed. You focus on her creek colored eyes and swear you feel their waters lapping at your ankles. Her smile is sudden but woozy around the edges; she is just as shaken. "Reckon he'll have a scar, too. Bet he lies about who gave it to him." ‘He’ was an elezen man -- maybe a merchant but likely not, as Sister Kindness did not know him -- with a face as sharp as his ears and a smile that spoke of too much confidence. And you had hated him on sight. His crime was making Sister Kindness uncomfortable and his mistake was not being aware of his surroundings. 
It does not take much pressure to break skin. 
Pleased with her work, Sister Kindness rises and disappears the handkerchief away. Handing you the flask, she instructs you to take a sip, swirl it around your mouth, and spit it out. There is some confusion about what 'swirl' means but, eventually, she is satisfied with this too. “Well, we didn’t get what I came for but we’ll be headed home all the same. Come now, before the ferry leaves without us. We will, ah, not be telling the abbess about this.” You don’t know if she means the bite or the trip to the city. 
You don’t ask.

Thank you for the ask, Anon! ][ Sensory Prompts ][

ScotNor Fic-Art
The promised ScotNor surprise as a celebration of 1 000+ followers is here. I am so greatful for all the wonderful writers we have in this fandom, especially those who write for rarepairs, and would take this opportunity to show that. That is why I have drawn an art piece for every ScotNor fic on AO3 that's not written by me with ScotNor as a main pairing - thought it would be a fun project 💖
Tumblr media
Sylfiden - by @hana-noiazei
Quote: “I saw your face when you first laid eyes on me. I doubt you have ever looked at Marianne that way. At the very least, I have never seen you do so.”
Tumblr media
Exile - by @fuckflorida-hetalia
Quote: It occurred to him that Ingve had said “I need supplies”, but Alistair had been taking enough for both of them. Would he really leave his family and everything he had to make sure Ingve made it?
Tumblr media
Of Coffe, Rain and Red Umbrellas - by @roessslyng
Quote: Allis shrugged. And then, with a grin, added, – ye can imagine, that Ah came here tae see ye, if ye wanna.”
Tumblr media
ScotNor/Storm - by @darcymariaphoster
Quote: […] - assuming Brodey had eyes for literally anyone else. But he doesn't, and Sigurd knows it. There's been nothing formal, but Sigurd isn't daft.” or “For all the time they've spent together over the past few months, Sigurd has to say that he enjoys not knowing exactly what Brodey is thinking.
Tumblr media
Anticipation - by moist_meat on AO3
Quote: “You get a reward.” He kisses him, long enough to make him want more and short enough that it wasn’t enough.
Tumblr media
A Little Peace and Quiet - by @randomw07
Quote: "I can't think of anywhere else I would rather be."
Tumblr media
The Witch of Wesmerland - by @hana-noiazei
Quote: Oh. He could hardly breathe. This man did not appear at first glance to be the witch that had risen out of the lake, but he quite clearly was. His hair was now short and fluffy, shoulders wide and strong beneath the velvet; there was something about him that made it nigh impossible to look away.

8 & 17 for the ask game :^)
HI KC!!!!!!!!! Thanks for asking!!
[ ask game! ]
8. What's an old project idea that you've lost interest in?
Hmm.. I have a tendency to sit on sketches/wips for months on end before I feel ready to finish them, but I just like to let it happen as it does because the interest always comes back around! So honestly, there's no idea I've truly abandoned, just repurposed later on.
Here's some wips that are all each about between 2-8 months old (that I will work on as soon as I get a second of free time!) :) —
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The wips, in order (yes, they're all Sandman lol): Corinthian's unmaking (kinda Corintheus-ish) inspired by a line from Frankenstein (started March 2023) // a Dreamling piece for (a favorite fic!!) Ecdysis by @moorishflower inspired by old insect scientific drawings (started Oct 2022) // Daniel Hall semi-inspired by this post by @notallsandmen (started Jan 2023) // Daniel & Hob (more wips posted here , started Oct 2022) // a piece inspired The Doll's House arc (started March 2023)! :]
17. Do you eat/drink when drawing? If so, what?
No eating usually, but I've always got a sparkling water with me nowadays lol

Stede rescues the crew from the island, they pile into that dinghy like it's a clown car
They search for a little while, but the show's logic of "you can easily find anything you're looking for" fails them. Blackbeard doesn't want to be found.
So they decide to regroup at the Republic of Pirates, atleast they might be able to pick up some resources and intel there, maybe even get in a little r and r.
But they still don't have a ship, and Stede can't just buy whatever they need anymore, but what he does still have is his ~charm and wit~ which leads him to conclude, "We'll join a crew! Some dastardly pirate must be looking for some strong and capable sea-men! We're a catch!"
They eventually get wind of some dark, mysterious stranger post up in Spanish Jackie's, looking for only the most competent, experienced, and fearsome of pirates. So of course, Stede feels they're the perfect fit!
They'll join a new crew! Stede can get some real pirating in now that he's not too preoccupied being in charge! They'll be so successful at plundering and pillaging that they'll surely have enough for their own ship in a matter of weeks! Maybe the captain will be so impressed with them that he'll give them his ship!
So Stede strides over to the dark corner indicated to him. He may not have the full "Gentleman Pirate" ensemble anymore, but he carries himself like he does - first impressions are important! - the rest of the crew trailing hesitantly behind.
He reaches the table at which the man sits, still in shadow. "I hear you're looking for a crew...!" Stede announces, only the slightest quiver in his voice, he really has come a long way.
The man let's out a deep, rasping sigh as he slowly picks up his bottle and swallows down the remaining liquid. He lifts the bottle high over his head and - all of a sudden a loud SMASH as he brings the bottle swiftly down and it connects with the edge of the table, shards of glass spraying everywhere as the man springs forward. Stede stumbles back but he can't get far, inadvertently penned in by the crew around him. The sharp edge of the glass is pressed to the side of his neck, his eyes squeezed shut in anticipation-
"Stede. Fucking. Bonnet." snarls out Izzy Hands.

hello tumblr user sleepy stitches why am i willing to die for ur yuri ocs despite only having seen one line of dialogue from both of them?
sincerely, me
hi tumblr user verysharpfish,
thank you for writing in. at the top of this post i would like to clarify that pahrsi was made by my good friend rye beans, so i cannot at all take credit for her. ariane is my girl though. i would love to blend her. she sucks.
to answer your question, i think it is because they are both completely fucking insane. the dialogue in question is one i picked because i think it's wild out of context, but it stays equally insane in context? this exchange happens maybe two hours after they've met, after pahrsi has stitched up a particularly icky wound ariane has in the back of her leg (obtained from other yuri. thats a story for a different post though). they literally met at a casino and pahrsi talked ariane into taking her back to her place to stitch her up. as a complete stranger. because she thought it would be fun. i need to send her to the shredder.
the whole reason they find themselves drawn to each other in the first place is because they both have girlfriends that they have kind of rocky relationships with, and they remind each other of those girlfriends. it's kind of a weird rebound situation except if they never did anything explicitly romantic and instead just kind of danced around the fact that they're obviously attracted to each other for like two entire years. they make me fucking crazy.
oh and every exchange they have is equally insane. they always talk like this. im struggling to pick my favourite one to add at the end here because all of it is really really good. i think this one is a classic; this is barely a third of the conversation these two have about ariane's potential to kill pahrsi.

locking in a final design for publius (I’ve redesigned him. like, five times now) because I have a comic I want to draw and publius has to be in it
(the comic is antony becoming increasingly haunted by cassius, publius, and crassus during antony's parthian war until it's a full blow horror nightmare sequence)

The Wooster cat is getting a bit senile and hard of hearing. Sometimes he leans over his little water fountain and with his face almost touching the water and screams and screams.

tagged by @ialpiriel a bit ago and then I went afk for data-eating reasons but now I’m mostly back, thank you Del for the tag and also for the patience, I love you ♥ ♥
again I’m supposed to post the last line I wrote and tag as many people as there are words in it, but again I’m not doing that!  I’m very bad at it, and also I’m laying this story to rest (in my document titled Cold Storage, where all the concepts I can’t make work rest until albion’s need is greatest or I get bored, whichever comes first) and I want this my favorite part to be seen before it goes
"If I'm not lying--"  Her mouth twisted wryly and then relaxed. "Yes, I could have.  But it wouldn't have been....It would've been worse. When you put a movement on someone like that, without guiding it, they carry it out with speed and force proportional to how much you want it done, and nevermind how much is good and healthy for their bodies. They'll rip all their joints apart and keep going for you. It's... unpleasant."
"Oh." He couldn't help but swallow. Her hands were on her knees, fingers pressing gently at the hollows and curves like she was reminding herself how they fit together. The thought definitely struck him as unpleasant. "Anyway, these were bandits. Bad men to be sure, oathbreakers and thieves, and maybe they'd deserve a nice maiming, but they're still manual laborers at the heart of it. If they lost their joints, they wouldn't recover without care, healing and retraining the limbs, who knows how much time, and they'd never be the same. It'd be their livelihood." "Uh-huh." The priorities on this one. She'd moved her hands from knees to wrists now, checking the attachments at the back of the hand and the base of the thumb and palm. "So what did you do to them instead?" "Oh, pain." She said it so easily. He blinked. "Every nerve I know, which is most of them." "...Right."
She looked at him, her hands finally still again, a smile in her eyes if not on her mouth. "Not wanting to cripple them doesn't mean going soft on them. I'm not out on this road for some scavenger to strike me down as soon as I pass them by. They'll drop where they stand and count themselves lucky they remember how to breathe through it." She sounded so sane. He nodded to her and gave her a hand up, and did not shudder at the feel of her fingers closing around his wrist. As they walked on, he forced his thoughts away from what she'd actually said and focused instead on recovering the confidence he'd lost earlier, when he had found out she was a priestess. He'd never been wrong after all. She was as rogue a mage as any he'd ever been contracted to kill. 
tagging:  actually the people I’d tag have mostly been tagged already.  @agirlnamedhagrid, @goddammitjim, would either of you like to play?

OK GO OFF, GENUINELY STAN TF OUT OF AN ARTIST KNOWING THEIR BOUNDRIESSS. it can take some people a lot time to realize that no, you dont owe anyone anything with ur art. its UR art. youre allowed to make what you like, and NOT MAKE what you do not like. its just-- highkey its honestly refreshing. sorry if this seems dumb or unrelated
HAHA THANKS ♥︎ (and this doesn't seem dumb or unrelated, there are people who need to hear it because they'll feel bad for refusing an ask like the pv anon one when they shouldn't)
that person has been sending that ask to ML artists for years, I remember when I first joined the fandom something like 2 years ago and so, they had sent me 2 asks as soon as I started dropping art (and it was more agressive like "draw pv felix bridgette tango dance" dhjdfhj). Back then I had been pretty nice because I felt a little bad for rejecting their request like "I'm sorry :// I hope you understand ://" but now I don't feel sorry in the slightest
And they've done it to lotssss of artists in the fandom it's ridiculous, and never with a "please" or anything
And you know it's the kind of person who will never leave you a thank you, never reblog what you drew for them for free, and for all you know they're gonna repost what you did on instagram or something 🤪
Some people really think artists are at their service and they can just ask like it won't take us hours to do a drawing. Some even take the opportunity when we do ask games & ask people to send us a character to draw, to drop their OC so they can have it for free, sorry but no, if you can't draw then go on picrew or something for that hahaha
But anyway for every new ML artist who hasn't had that PV anon yet: if you get it don't waste your time with them they're annoying ✌️
