I remember when I really wanted an ORV wallpaper, but I wanted one that symbolized (to me at least) a large chunk of ORV. So I started collecting quotes I liked and added them to wallpaper and adding and adding and adding and then I added some flavor and color to it and then I came up with this monstrosity
and yes, it's messy and crowded and a whole bunch of things but I like it so shut up
imagine vance, half drunk, going to bruce and whispering “you're so cool” to their face and leaving, leaving behind him a surprised yet flustered bruce.
Meryta Khatin - Carpenter (and occasionally Warrior of Light) by @impossible-rat-babies
Thank you Owen for this wonderful art of Meryta in her DoH outfit! I love crafting, and the carpentry is so important to Meryta - the first welcoming place in Gridania as new adventurer.
I love the colors, her pose, her hair! The swish of her tail and all the details! The light! The Gridania waterwheel is so wonderful in the background!
‘I have chosen to focus on girls, not because the boys (where present) were any less stylish, but because girls in ‘subcultures’ have been largely ignored or when referred to, only as male appendages.
The female as an extra to the main show is hackneyed and rife – see the gang member’s watery girlfriend who tags along with the lads just to be with her dream boat man; the feisty female who, like George in Enid Blyton’s Famous Five, is a boy in everything but common sense, empathy and an intrinsic knowledge of when the violence should end; she’s the shaggable lead singer in the all-boy band; and so on and on. Does anything ever change?’
It’s often said that women are set up to do each other down, ‘getting their claws out’, ‘bitching’ and being ‘catty’ whenever another woman hones into view. The subjects of Anita’s pictures are confident and at ease, each generously supporting the other and seeing in her a kindred spirit and partner.’
