Finally made a Muse version!

#muse band #muse #canva #album poster #i know the absolution one is a different format but I originally made it for the 20th anniversary and kept it for this #this is what kept me from making a oddly specific collection this week. i'll be back at it next week i promise.

I had a dream that drawtectives s3 was out (for the second time) and woke up mad and then went back to sleep

and then I had another dream where I was hanging out with a rosé cosplayer and complaining about how my subconscious tricked me into thinking s3 was out and then the rosé cosplayer took my hand and said “I’m so sorry. Don’t worry, everything will be okay.”

so of course I drew this

#drawtectives #rosé drawtectives #I have a lot of weird dreams but this is the weirdest I’ve had in a while #it’s so oddly specific. how did I know that the rosé was a cosplayer

People rebutting the "Childe is 34" theory, have you considered this.

No way he would have survived that long with his lifestyle.

#it's all the proof I need #honestly #have you seen him #boys like this don't survive past 30 #I get acute mono-no aware poisoning every time I look at him #childe #tartaglia #genshin impact #I still hc he's 19 at the time of liyue arc #he behaves like he's 19 #(my oddly specific headcanons) #and character stories put him somewhere in the 18-22 range #why are we even arguing #and we don't even need time fuckery for him to be declared guilty tbh #the whale 'left traces on him' as skirk says #and that could be enough for the oratrice to mistake him for the whale/willing accomplice #also #I don't know about you #but I prefer to see him as someone brilliant but very young #and not someone 34yo and incredibly stupid #(because if a person still behaves like that at 34 they are not smart)

i decided to share the project i just finished on here if anyone is interested!

i know it maybe isn't the *most* recognizable item from mash but i've always loved margaret's tent and this pillow specifically! its not exact due to a couple differences in materials (i think), reference photo struggles, and the fact that i did all the sewing by hand but overall i'm happy with it :)

#also i know i'm not really a 'mash' blog on here anymore so no pressure to interact with this or anything :) #i just have a weakness for oddly specific props.. #..and sewing projects are GREAT distractions! from things. #m*a*s*h #my art

Current headcanon I'm obsessing over: Kim knows how to play the drum. I don't care if he still plays the drum, if he used to play when he was younger or if it's one of those things he really wanted to do but never got to experience (like the pleasure wheel or becoming a pilot) but my boy know how to lay a sick, loud and thrashy beat and nothing can convince me otherwise.

#i know there is little to no evidence of this in canon #trust me i checked fayde #BUT #there is little to no other explanation to why a drum player was his first thought when looking at the uneven footprint #like thats such an oddly specific thing that only someone who experienced this firsthand would know about? #like yeah it makes sense when he explains it afterward #but why is that his *first* thought? #also being a drummer makes sense with his character #disco elysium #kim kitsuragi

Spencer Reid has the same energy as those cats you pick up by their front legs and just..... Stand shocked at how LOOOONG they are and they don't even try to get down, just accept their fate dangling mid-air in your hands.

Odd question but....

Does anyone happen to have legal access to Lemna Obscura duckweed (NOT Lemna minor, which is what most aquarium duckweed is)? I have a lot of L. minor, which I give to the birds sometimes as a treat, but my understanding is that L. obscura has over twice the protein, so I'd like to look into getting some to propagate in my tanks instead. The only place I've found that has it is for research, grown on agars and expensive as heck, but I know it grows wild in the southern US.

thinking about the Lady again and she actually is the Character Ever.

Starting off with her design. How ridiculously simple it is, right? Her yukata is plain brown and has a single layer, her wig (and yes, I am positive what she wears is not her hair but a wig soley because of how easily it comes undone... that kind of hairstyle is meant to STICK when done with actual hair) has no decorations befitting a woman of her powerful status and her mask is nothing but... empty. You could mistake her for a mannequin and you wouldn't even be wrong. It's by design, after all: she is as insanely important, as a figure, as she is anonymous as a person.

But then, it's with amusement that you note that that boring, unexpressive mask is called the "Rascal's mask" when unlocked. It's such an oddly affectionate nickname stemming from a person so utterly despicable. And then you notice her hair. Her long, black hair that should be hidden under her wig, as the hairstyle goes, but are instead hanging out freely. Not very traditional at all, right? You could almost read it as a small act of defiance of... something. Now, what that thing is, I doubt even she knows. Maybe it's just her way to seek individuality without having to step into zones she does not want to touch.

And then, of course, the lack of shoes. It's not uncommon for people to wear slippers in the house - especially for the Japanese - but she just... doesn't. In that small, small way, she is similar to Six - and every other child in the Maw running around barefoot. Except she's above running, of course. She's got the privilege of floating like a ghost so that she may never touch the ground.

(The only time when this rule is broken is when she fights Six, poetically enough. You can see her visibly step back.)

These strange little things are the first things that push you to wonder about her as a person. Not the title, not the Lady of the Maw: the individual behind the mask. Who is that person? What is she like? Is there a way to answer these questions? I think yes, if you know where to look - but is it worth to ask these questions considering what she does?

That depends on you. Me personally, I think there is narrative worth to be found in what she has to hide. Her foil, Six, finds value in the aspects of herself she does not hide: she is very unapologetic in her selfhood. The Lady isn't, for the most part.

(I wonder if that would make her envious of her younger counterpart in a different context?)

Frankly, looking back on her choice of attire, the fact that her personal bedroom is barely decorated is not surprising. She only has the essentials: a bed, the vase with the key, a few pictures of importance (of people long forgotten, herself included no doubt) and... an ungodly amount of misplaced clothes all over her quarters. All the same yukata, repeated over and over, maniacally folded and arranged in towers, but never where they're supposed to be.

A bedroom is the reflection of yourself. Of your inner world. The fact hers looks so barebones is quite telling about who she is. Or isn't. She herself may have some trouble trying to figure that one out.

I think that, in a vacuum, it's easy to assume that the reason she's so displeased by her reflection is soley out of vanity. That is definitely part of it, but I don't think that's all there is. Because after seeing the mannequins that all look just like her, the four women in the picture who also wear her same exact clothes... and that hidden quote.

This quote, which is from Alice in Wonderland. Specifically from a conversation in which Alice expresses how she doesn't recognise herself anymore because of how many times she grew big and small during the course of the day. She is not the same person she was before entering Wonderland.

I find the way she clings to the dolls and the music box to be much more... sombre when keeping this in mind. In a way, that scene is reminiscent of Monster Six clinging to her music box in the chaos of the Tower; an attempt to attach to something safe. For the Lady, it's even more personal. Those are her toys. Her song. No one can take them from her and claim them as theirs. These materialistic tomes are physical proof of her identity. She likes dolls, and she likes to sing that song from her music box. Surely, that much is something.

But a ceramic toy and an old music box are not really enough to placate the inner turmoil. Hence the broken mirrors, the hidden statues... the hung down portraits with their eyes scratched out - from times of the past. There is a person looking back in the mirror which she does not recognise. That can't be her, right?

It isn't. The reflection is but a faux image of her outward appearence. The inside, however... much like this concept art shows, she is melting away. Rapidly decaying no matter how much she tries to stick to her youth.

Because at the end of the day, that's what she's doing, no? The toys, the music box, her appearence... all of it, just to cling a bit more to the person she used to be. Point being that I doubt even she remembers what she used to be.

You'd think a person like this would be inclined to feel at least some sympathy for all the lost children wandering the Nowhere. A sense of kinship, perhaps, or even just... basic human compassion. She has proved to have very human emotions, after all. This is where she proves you wrong. Whenever you think she's stepped the lowest, she always goes lower.

In her humanity, she is brutal. Relentless, ruthless. She offers no sympathy to anyone and has no empathy to spare either. She is very much aware of what's going on under her roof: she not only allows the Maw to continue being the way it is in spite of having the power to change things, but she actively engages in its despicable practices. She has petrified children in her quarters, as well as their ashes - of which the use is unclear - and then she is responsible for the Nome population and exploitation being so large and so eerily heavy. She's twisted necks, broken bones, murdered innocents.

The Shadow Children are, to me, one her greatest offenses. I don't think they serve any particular purpose other than... being there because she wanted to make them. Children ripped away from their life because of her whims. Not even in death can they rest because she can get her hands on their souls. They're nameless, forgotten shadows with blank masks: they're just like their creator, in that way. Ripped of all individuality and devoid of everything.

Everything she sees, the Lady devours. Not a creature is safe from her shadows and her wrath, especially if they come and actively intrude in her activities. She's twice as aggressive if the Maw is at stake.

The Lady's personal bedroom has another motif piece which I did not previously mention: the Maw wallpaper. While Roger and the Chefs have wallpapers that portray them with her, the Lady... does not. She only has the Maw. She's not part of that picture.

The Lady can't let the Maw change its ways. She is the Maw. The Maw must survive: so must she. To change the Maw would mean challenging herself enough to bring about a change; to her, who does nothing but lament what she lost, that would be too much effort. Too outside of the comfortable zone where she can survive in peace. Miserable, but unbothered.

... For the most part. Until Six comes around.

#the lady #carols.txt #ln meta #{dude i dont even know where i was going with this #if it seems like this post comes from a place of love it does #not at her as a person but like as a character. i find her so interesting and i feel oddly tender about her writing #usually when this happens its because i see pieces of the person i could have been in a character (like scaramouche for example) #but this time its from the completely opposite perspective #i am a person with a very clear idea of who i am. i know what my identity is and i am not afraid to express it #so witnessing a character with such a confused identity is both alien and fascinating to me #i wanted to focus more on her atrocities and how capitalism is what changes a person but its... 2 am and i am sick rn #i spent an hour literally vomiting my ramblings on this post #as a person and what she stands for i despise her. as a character i wish to put her in a security blanket and see how she gets out #this post feels terribly personal for some reason. like whatever . shes not even allat #im lying she literally IS allat #idk i love well written female characters who feel like people and dont fit in a specific convenctional box. sue me #< goes for six too #not opening *that* can of worms rn but. yeah} #little nightmares

No hate to anyone who writes this way, but am I the only one who can’t relate to readers who’ve had lots of flings/sex/relationships/etc?

I'll be taking flowers to the cemetery of my heart

For all of my lovers in the present and in the dark

Every anniversary, I'll pay respects and say I'm sorry

For they never stood a chance as if they could

When no one knows what it's like to be us
