Too many people draw Spamton like some anime twink and not like the sleazy middle aged man he is who's trying to steal your wallet by any means necessary. The speculated age based on the first spam email is 45 year old!!!!!
Give him a bit of a gut and the start to a receding hairline or beat me to death. This man is WEIRD!! He's sketchy!! He's desperate!! He's damaged!! He's corrupted!! He's STRONG and DANGEROUS!! He does not have a skincare routine!! He'll borrow your umbrella just to sell it back to you!!! Give him bags under his eyes and grey in his hair!! He's tired! He's stressed!
You can draw him pint sized all you want but drawing him like some college yaoi twunk??? Over my dead body 👹

at some point i will figure out how to write the post-canon, post-empire edelgard autonomy fic of my dreams. it just feels like a very big task and maybe like with playing the dane, i’m simply not old and traumatized enough to manage it yet.
but my vision is thus: it’s set years (realistically, decades) after the end of crimson flower, when everything has gone as right as it can possibly go. fódlan is thriving. the social reforms have taken effect. the nobility system is nearly eliminated, if not entirely so, with titles made merely symbolic. social mobility, welfare, and prosperity are high. there’s an explosion in arts and culture and technology. brigid and duscur have gained independence; relations with sreng and almyra are much improved; heck, maybe they've even figured it out with dagda. in my most idealistic version, leicester and faerghus would eventually be ceded back to become autonomous regions, essentially disbanding the adrestian empire. rule is no longer hereditary, but merit-based. there's a roadmap for the future, and everything is on track—and more than that, people at all points on the power spectrum have already seen it bear fruit. with or without edelgard, it will be pursued. there's buy-in. they believe.
of course, it's not perfect—nothing can be—but edelgard's vision has been fulfilled. the people are empowered. humanity is free. fódlan has healed.
and somehow, she's had enough time to resolve her goals outside of politics, too. those who slither in the dark have been eradicated. edelgard and lysithea's second crests have been successfully removed, allowing them to live if not full lives, then substantially longer ones than they would have with their twin crests intact. who knows—maybe she finally gets around to having that wedding.
point for point, every item listed in edelgard's manifesto has been checked off. the ghosts of her past have been laid to rest. she can finally take off her crown. she can finally pursue the quiet, humble life she's wanted for so long. she can finally breathe.
... but can she?
edelgard is nothing if not driven. her intelligence, vision, and sheer willpower allowed her to plan and execute a revolution against two countries and the most powerful institution on the continent, all while she was still a teenager. as royalty, her life was never truly hers even before she became heir to the adrestian throne, with all the additional baggage of survivor's guilt and the desire for vengeance and her need to ensure nothing that happened to her can ever happen to anyone else, ever again.
so what happens when that drive has no outlet? what happens when someone who has been constantly in motion, constantly working and planning and preparing every spare second of every day since she was fourteen years old, suddenly has to stand still? what happens when someone whose hands have been bound for so long—first literally in the dungeons of enbarr, then by the weight and responsibilities of her crown—is set free?
being edelgard, she would step away from the throne, no matter how hard it was for her to give up control. she's always been focused on the endgame, and she knows that if she doesn't let go, she'll be setting the wrong tone for fódlan's future. she's too devoted to that endgame to cling to power much longer than she needs to, though i could see her making some excuses and trying to iron out just a few more things to buy herself some more time to mentally prepare before she's done for good.
but who would she be then? who is the woman without the crown? what becomes of a machine once it is no longer needed, when it has made itself obsolete? what about when that machine is a person with legs and arms and an innate unwillingness to gather dust on a shelf?
what happens when you get everything you want? what happens when all your wanting has been for others to thrive, and now you have to want only for yourself? how do you discover who you are when you've spent decades being everything for everyone else? how do you find meaning again? how do you find purpose?
after a lifetime of devotion and passion and movement, how do you learn to sit with yourself, and be quiet, and be still?
gosh, i would love to meet her. i would love to pick her brain. but boy, i do not envy the work that girl has to do.

MONTANA ONYEBUCHI SIGNED AN ELC WITH ARIZONA COYOTES AND I’M SO PROUD OF HIM I COULD BARF!!!!!! OH MY GOD!!!
Yotes fans you are getting SUCH a good one. I don’t have much lore about him, mostly just a vibe check, so here are my main facts you need to know about Montana:
1. Loves the boys. LOVES the boys. I think our coaching staff wished he had loved the boys a little less, because the way Montana loves is simply “I don’t like how you looked my small frail forward, so I’m going to kill you in real life.” He is so protective of the boys, especially of the younger guys. He had two years with Cuda (undrafted out of uhhh the WHL I think but this is also why I am barfing, because he was NEVER sure thing) and by year two he was like I will do literally anything for these guys. I personally loved that because I found it very sexy that his love language is murder. If you don’t like fighting and guys who take dumbass penalties, you will hate Montana, but his protective instinct is so strong and I think it’s delightful!!! I can’t even call him a goon really, because it’s never like he’s starting shit just to start shit, he’s not out here causing trouble for fun, it is ALWAYS because he took offense at how someone was behaving around his teammates.
2. He is so hot it is unreal. he had all of San Jose drooling. Our one (1) local podcast guy, a married dude with a kid, once interviewed him and started off the interview with “has there ever been a bad photo taken on you?” AND THERE NEVER HAS BEEN. (Montana took this comment SO graciously, he is an icon.) Like I try to stick to my age bracket generally but oh my god. He had the whole fanbase (there are about 10 of us) sweatin
3. TOTAL sweetheart with the fans. I never heard any fan talk shit about him in the arena, and the nature of the Cuda fanbase in San Jose is such that someone is always talking shit. To my knowledge, always willing to take photos, always willing stop and say hi, never out here with a huge ego, doesn’t take anything for granted. Just an enormous man with a huge heart who was really appreciative that San Jose took a chance on an undrafted overager. He will probably be like this in Arizona.
Tl;dr absolutely lionheart-coded, I hope he finds a king in Arizona!!! Sadly the rumor is that he did not want to stay in San Jose because San Jose would not let him play injured, which is. lol. why are they like this. I guess he did not appreciate watching his friends get the shit knocked out of them day in and day out while he could not protect them. I assume he spends a good deal of time with the Roadrunners, which is hilarious bc they are like the Cuda’s second (maybe first now that the Heat are in Calgary) biggest rivalry and he got into it with them five million times last season. But I truly truly wish him well and I am so proud he signed an ELC somewhere and I hope he thrives in Arizona. Also if he goes to Australia for the Global Series I will cry real tears of joy and pride.
