Give Dionysus Potatoes

❤️Love❤️ all my Dionysus lovers and fellow practitioners, and honor them as you may with grapes that's awesome...

But grapes are overrated.

Yeah yeah, grapes make wine, prefect, but give this man some hops! Give this intoxicated god some barley, give them sugar cane for their rum! Give them potatoes for their vodka!

Give Dionysus a bit of coke for a mixer, a bottle opener in his name.

#Dionysus #witchcraft #witch community #Dionysus worship #dionysus devotee #diety work #I understand most of those food items aren't necessarily available #I would just love to see him in art that ISN'T grapes #I'm tired of grapes #I love Dionysus witches #please @ me witchies uwu #Dionysus witches #I like a voldka and coke #Bet Dionysus loves a rum and coke #Bet Dionysus is in every blunt you smoke #his festivals are in the winter

open for: @starteroaks

where: @ the giant board games, dealer's choice what game they're playing!

"I think I've got this in the bag," Atlas says with a little too much confidence for someone who doesn't have his next move figured out -- nothing new there. He leans down slightly, peering closely at the board as if trying to invoke some sort of clairvoyant vision for where they would move next so he could best it.

"Your go."

every late november i am cursed with the knowledge that constantine hasn't done any sort of formal or informal holiday gathering since his sister died, and flat-out avoids people as soon as december starts so no one will invite him to anything bc he knows his seasonally bad mood will haunt whatever room he walks into. basically i'm saying this is your chance to ambush him while it's still november and harangue him into agreeing to attend your non-denominational ugly sweater parties or split a bottle of wine before he's cognizant enough to weasel out of it.

#( ooc. ) OUT OF CIGS.#seasonal depression but make it ✨trauma✨#he actually becomes the Worst Person around the winter holidays and yeah. part of it is because he's a cynical dick #but also christmas with his father fucking Sucked & reclaiming that time as an adult with cheryl was indescribably precious to him #when he lost her and his niece refused to have anything to do with him afterwards he just. gave up #constantine staring longingly into people's windows like the guy from it's a wonderful life: nah i don't do christmas. not my thing #but really he is just lonely and a loser and secretly kind of a champion gift-giver so let him in please #blanket warning that if you get him to observe hanukkah with you he Will weight the dreidel and take all your fucking gelt #he has also been known to fuck off to ireland last minute and wander around pagan festivals so u know. options are open #( headcanons. ) I'M JUST LIKE THE BASTARDS I'VE HATED ALL ME LIFE.#yes i've been emo about him every time i've had the chance to log on today. what about it

“Gods are stubborn. So am I.” - Euripides, from Grief Lessons: Four Plays; translated by Anne Carson

Oliver Queen and Cernunnos, the Horned God in Green Arrow (1988) #26

#oliver queen #ollie queen #green arrow #edits #my edits #if Ollie didn't want me to use typewriter fonts for every edit of him he wouldn't have used one on page #anyway I changed Cernunnos from the purple he is in the comics to the same Green as Ollie's tunic in both panels because I wanted to #highlight the connection between them that their interactions in this issue seeks to establish #not just the connection established by Sherwood Forest and the Robin Hood mythos #but also in the sort of idea of them both as guardians of the forest and of what it means to be wild #of Cernunnos both as a part of Ollie that is released into the forefront of his subconscious when he's drugged but also as someone for whom #Ollie shoots an arrow in thanks #but also Cernunnos as a figure who appears after that thanks wearing a tunic that is very similar to Ollie's own #of Ollie's professions of atheism and his desire to thank a deity #the kindness both he and Cernunnos show to Rowan- the understanding that she is doing her part in their care of the wild #also like very very fun fact- Grell actually used the ancient Irish festival of Samhain as the 'druid' new year in this comic and Samhain #is historically when the LBA Irish would celebrate the new year with the coming of winter #but yeah #really wanted to sort of establish and strengthen that connection this issue places between Ollie and Cernunnos because I think it's a #really underrated part of the Grell run #and like i get it #it's kind of a silly arc where Ollie gets drugged with LSD and goes to Sherwood #but there's some really great character analysis in here and I like it #even if I hate druids- and would physically fight the leaders of pretty much every modern druidic organization #and they'd DESERVE IT

\ / The First Night(mare) \ /

It came without warning. He came without warning.

They were caught off guard ( it didn't really matter ) Their meager civilization torn already by apocalypse ( Ragnarok ) would have never stood a chance. There were no terms of surrender, no negotiation. They were forced to submit at the cost of innocent lives. He sought the stones.

Loki cornered. Surrounded. Thor at his mercy- No. This was wrong, everything was wrong. He couldn't be felled by any enemy no matter how tall they stood. The mighty Thor, the man who brought light to every life he touched - bloodied on the verge of death at his strength.

His weakness. His one and true king. His brother. ( don't kill him. )

He gave up the tesseract to save him. He thought if they could make it out, they could save those who remained and make it to safety. Heimdal fell. The agony tore through Loki as another of them was slain, mere sheep were they at the hands of these wolves.

Thor please, Thor- NO!

He attacked, Loki should have known. His greatest weakness was his desire for vengeance, to retaliate when deserved. But he was weak to the titan and caged all the same. Loki knew more than most what the price of rebellion was. He knew what this being was capable of. He'd been under his hand a mere 10 years ago ( that was no time for someone of his age. )

He had nothing left. The only thing he loved was trapped as he always had been. Freedom was the song of Loki's life. The ability to choose. The choice to rise above. To be above and prove to them all he was more than a reflection. And yet as the terror coursed through him, he knew exactly what he had left.

A choice.

He rose from hiding ( coming forth from shadows, in all of his wretched glory ) the choice he had to make was clear ( the sun would rise upon them again ) his freedom, his life mattered ( they are the sons of Odin )

Loki could be more than himself. What if he could do something right? What if he could choose to be good? He did. He would.

The image was as clear as ice. The titan stood above him. Unafraid. Unamused. Loki summoned his final fight - his final choice. Cold was the metal that enclosed his neck. The power that surged through those stones, that hand.

He felt it. Suffocating. His life forced out of him - slowly, intimately, in front of the one who loves him the most. The one Loki loved most.

He fought till his last breath. Even when he couldn't feel the nerves, his mind and heart purged of their air. He couldn't fight anymore. He couldn't breathe. His mind was leaving him ( the one thing he treasured before, now useless in his corpse ) his body dead on the floor.

Snap.

He heard his name. He couldn't do anything. Truly he was helpless. Please, Thor, forgive him. He did it all for you.

-----------------

It was the middle of the night. The moon shone brightly over the unfamiliar landscape. No ship. No wreckage. Nothing.

Loki shot out of bed, no voice escaped his dry throat ( he couldn't breathe, he couldn't breathe ). Covered in sweat, and covers thrown to the ground.

In and out.

it didn't help his racing heart. The images still flashed in his mind over and over again, tears brimming in his eyes.

Alone in the darkness, he sat. No one was around ( where was Thor, he needed his brother ). His body trembled at the sensations. His hands... with shaking fingers, he touched the place.

He winced.

No. No. This was a dream. A bad omen ( an omen of what? You were not blessed with premonitions ) He raced to his bathroom, the light clearing the darkness away. He looked in the mirror and-

...

Bruises...

He touched them again. These were real ( he was proof this was no dream. )

The prince fell on his knees. This was the truth. These were not his dreams. Tears fell silently on the tiles of the floor. What had he done...? What... could he do?

These were his last memories, Loki's truth.

#( thread . ) \ / drabble .#( ic . ) \ / prince of asgard . rightful heir of jotunheim . odin son .#cw: death #cw: ptsd dream #cw: bloodshed #Timeline wise this should have been a week or so after his arrival and before the winter festival

Dosojin Nozawa Onsen Fire Festival | Nozawa Onsen Dōsojin Hi-Matsuri

January 15th The Nozawa Onsen Fire Festival (野沢温泉道祖神火祭り, Nozawa Onsen Dōsojin Hi-Matsuri) is held on January 15th every year and is one of Japan’s three major fire festivals. The festival is, in fact, a playful enactment: the 42-year-old and 25-year old males of the village defending a makeshift 7-meter high shrine against the onslaught of the rest of the villagers who rush towards the structure with flaming torches. Trees are cut down during October and over 100 villagers gather to build the structure the day before the festival, following which a ceremony is performed to enshrine a dosojin (道祖神): a deity of roads and borders that is known to protect travellers. The 42-year-olds defend the upper part of the structure while the 25-year-olds defend the lower part. These age groups are chosen because they are said to be “unlucky” (yakudōshi) ages in Japanese superstition. The “attack” begins at 8:30pm and can last for three hours before the shrine is burnt to the ground.

(I choose this one for my question: @silent-daylight-james )

How opposed would you be to a merman costume if it was offered to you?

James shrugs... " Given that I have almost no changes of clothes I don't know if I should turn down any offer. It would be interesting to at least see what I look like." He says thoughtfully. -James Sunderland

#dead by daylight #james sunderland #merman #He's open to the idea he has so few clothes #he has his beachwear #and the scarf and hat from the winter Festival

Meet The OC!

Name: Link Lupus Lorule

Height: 6’ / 183cm

Long black hair, often in a low braid or ponytail. Hair is fairly straight

Age: 20

Occupation: bookstore owner, adventurer (Hero)

Weapon of choice: sword, but he is excellent at the bow as well

Scar on his cheek is from a silly and embarrassing accident when he was a teenager

Notable abilities: can turn into a wolf, can turn others into an animal, can manipulate shadows (exactly how and how much to be determined)

Notes: everyone is scared of him due to his height and resting face. His demeanor doesn’t help with this, as he is shy and quiet. No one realizes he owns the bookstore, he always makes sure the friendly looking employees are running things.

He can often be found organizing the shelves or reading in the corner. No one has the courage to ask what he’s reading (its usually fantasy, particularly those with a romance involved). (His small handful of employees are not scared of him anymore, and are all quite fond of him. But that was a long process to get to that point.)

On occasion, Link likes to travel. He always helps anyone he passes who may be in danger, as much as that may freak out the one in need of help. Usually, the entire exchange is quick and wordless on his end. He has a bit of a reputation amongst travelers as ‘the black knight’ or ‘that scary guy who’s really helpful but still terrifying.’

When trouble brews, Link ends up half-reluctantly becoming the Hero, wielding the triforce of courage and vanquishing evil alongside the princess, Zelda.
