HAPPY 7th ANNIVERSARY to
🥳🎉EL'S ALOLAN ADVENTURES!!!🎉🎊
Can you believe it's been 7 years already? Seven whole years... And I got to meet SO many wonderful people thanks to this comic and gained SO much experience from it, especially through the Comic Dub I recorded, directed and published last year!
No really, it's incredible to think how much of an influence this fancomic had on my life in every aspect and I am incredibly grateful for how much it helped me grow, both as an artist and a person, and how I got to build a wonderful community of both fans and friends through it over the years! 🥹🥰💖💕
Originally I wanted to plan a Livestream for today and draw something a bit more extravagant, but unfortunately like many others I'm currently sick with a harsh whooping cough 🤧😷😔
So all I managed to draw was future-Guz and El, relating to my past winter-comics of them I published around Christmas! ;w;
You can see them HERE and HERE
Thank you all SO MUCH for your immense support over the years and I hope I still get to do a belated Anniversary Stream with all of you before the end of the year! ;w; Love you guys! 💖
~Eleanor
Thank you to my Patrons, who support future updates and animations of the comic!

It's heartening sometimes to realize how incredibly ordinary historical figures looked. If you watch a bunch of period dramas, you come away thinking that history was made exclusively by shockingly attractive people---when actually, famous poets with burnished names look more like Jim, The Local Bank Manager; artists who broke the mold wouldn't look out of place scrolling through their phone on the subway. You could walk past the absurdly wealthy doyennes of society in the grocery store and never give them a second glance.

can i be fr for a minute?? sending abuse to people online for holding different views than you is not activism and in fact actively hurts your cause. most people are not extreme in their viewpoints, you can give them a new perspective if you're willing to spend some time explaining shit. if someone is saying something you disagree with and you rush in there to condescend to them and call them disgusting and subhuman and dont even TRY to explain calmly why their views are harmful, they're going to shut you out instantly and double down on their views.
most people are simply genuinely ignorant to the issues they're talking about - they just pick their views up from the news and the world around them and express opinions because that's what every person does. if you run in there and tell them they're scum for it, what then? if someone does that to you, are you going to think "maybe i should do some research" or are you going to think "this person is an asshole, im blocking them." a lot of you think you're activists and then refuse to do any kind of actual WORK to support your cause.

Soooo I got drunk for the first time tonight, I’m just wondering how all the boys from the AU’s would react to a drunk reader (thank god for auto correct because I’m still drunk while typing this)
omg i hope you’re being safe!! and that you don’t get a hangover!
thank you brynn for helping me with these!!
jack and lovie — lovie extremely rarely gets drunk, but she’s a very…. lovey drunk! she gets clingy and just absolutely attaches herself to jack, so he doesn’t have to do much to take care of her. but he’s definitely so gentle about it. when they get back home, he’s carrying her to their room in order to make sure they don’t wake up el. he’s wearing a goofy smile in response to her drunken mumbles of how much she loves him, whispering ‘i love you’s back to her as he helps her change into pajama’s, gently rubbing her makeup off with a makeup wipe before changing his own clothes, crawling in next to her and holding her tight.
jack and dove — dove is a wild ‘dance on tables’ drunk, so jack would have to keep an eye on her all night- a hand around her waist to make sure she doesn’t run off, cutting off her alcohol when he decides she’s too rowdy, keeping an eye on her as she dances with john and dawson, coaxing her off tables if she tries to climb onto them, and at the end of the night, he would get her greasy food and watch in loving awe as she eats every last bite while doing a little drunken happy dance.
luke and dolly — we’ve previously discussed on my blog what kind of drunk dolly is, and she’s a ‘wanders off and finds stray animals’ drunk. so luke would keep her under constant surveillance. a finger wrung through one of her belt loops at all times in order to ensure she doesn’t wander off, and if somehow she convinces him to let her go (ie: saying she has to use the bathroom) and then she wanders off, he has her location on so that he can track her and he usually finds her out in the alleyway with a stray cat on her lap. he doesn’t know how she always coerces the cats to come to her, but he has to gently talk through it with her and explain to her drunken mind that she can’t wander off because what if something happens and he can’t find her? and he has to bargain with her that they can’t bring a stray cat home and that he knows how upsetting that is to her and how sad it is for the cats, but that if she willingly leaves it alone, they can watch a true crime documentary together before bed
john and shortcake — shortcake would be an emotional drunk! she can go from happy to crying to yelling to never ending apologies to laughing in the span of ten to twenty minutes because the alcohol would enhance her emotions. but john knows exactly how to care for her when she’s that emotional, ranging from softly rubbing her back when she’s yelling, to holding her and offering her food when she’s sad, to kissing her quiet when she feels guilty and is apologetic for the earlier yelling! and he knows exactly what to say to bring a smile to her face in a matter of seconds, which is always met from john with a “there’s that pretty smile.” which makes shortcake blushy!

Day 7 Freeform for @tolkiengenweek: Luthien finding Daeron after the events of 'Of Beren and Luthien' !
(and yes that is in fact Elured and Elurin, yes i realized they should absolutely not be in the same time period as baby Dior, yes i accidentally smashed 2 ideas together in my brain and i didn't realize this until i was half done)
Inspired by a conversation I had with @sakasakiii about Luthien going back for daeron (since apparently the doriathrim didn't want him, or at least not enough to mount a thingol-scale rescue party).
Also partially inspired by another part of the same conversation in which Rin brought up the idea of Daeron going to rescue elured and eluril. Anyways after the accidental timeline-mashing, I decided that well, the forest around menegroth is full of enough weird maia magic to explain elured & elurin time traveling directly into luthien, beren, and daeron's house decades before they were supposed to be born- after all, occasional time travel to weird magic places is Lost Road canon right?

New Scholomance headcanon.
So it’s always bothered me a wee bit that it was so easy for El and gang to turn the Golden Enclaves spell into a group casting. It not being a group casting led to Mawmouth Enclaves in the first place. It was an impossible feat that presumably all the best ancient minds couldn’t achieve, and a bunch of eighteen years old managed it in their little dorm in a couple months?
My headcanon so far has been that the giant leap is due to the immense technological chasm between Purochana and El. He created the spell hundred and hundreds of years ago. We’ve had all this time of magical theory between then and now, to make a previously impossible feat a quite easy one. I mean, you wouldn’t expect an ancient engineer to be able to make a potato lamp, would you?
But. I’ve just had another idea.
We know magic in the Scholomance universe works on belief. The harder you believe something, the sturdier the magic. So I wonder if magic also works on precedents. Once you’ve done something, and the world at large knows it can be done, that belief creates new possibilities for future, similar magics, to work.
So the reason Purochana couldn’t make the Golden Enclaves a group work, but El can?
Because El already made it a group working at least one time before.

Tim: *horrified gasp*
Tim: Oh no.
Kon: What?
Tim: Damian. He's Crocheting.
Kon: Huh... I didn't know he could crochet. That's cool.
Tim: No. This is bad. Damian only crochet when he's feeling especially murderous.
Jon: I thought he knit when he's feeling murderous?
Tim: No, he knits when he's angry. This is very different.
Kon: Oh, look. Now he's sewing.
Tim: *terrified screams*
