#it was a very pleasant surprise

[cerul-skyefrost]

i’m sorry i hope you don’t mind me asking… did you or your partner have an answer? for the the names of chris and leon’s horses????

AHHH I don't mind you asking at all!!! <333 I only remember saying that Leon would totally call his horse Bingo (in honour of Bingo the dog from broken machine, of course!) but I don't think we ever thought of one for Chris. D;

#;u; thank you for the ask! #it was a very pleasant surprise #my main horse on red dead online was the dark bay turkoman at the time and i can totally see leon riding one of those #they're quite tall and a bit more lanky than your average horse i think #perfect for leon's long legs ;)

Fanfic guessing game: shoreline, frigid, and stark

Thanks for the ask!

This is from Under the Wave, the current wip;

Shoreline:

Shockingly I had nothing for 'shoreline,' 'coast,' 'water's edge,' or anything of that nature. However there was so much mention of water and seawater it felt disingenuous to not consider them somewhat analogous.

She froze in position as the shadow realm overwhelmed her, enormous cadavers floating by them, the scent of ocean water and its familiar rolling hiss, and unfathomable timelessness that echoed out in ripples.

Frigid:

Didn't quite have 'frigid,' but I do have this for you.

They sat on either side of Bellroc, eyes fixed in position. A hopeful smile on Nari’s face, icy intensity flattening Skrael like a mask. They both edged forward when Bellroc opened their eyes, waiting for them to say the first word.

Stark:

Once again I didn't have anything for 'stark' but I did find something its antonym, 'harsh.'

Maulgark dropped her to the ground, the inner workings of his mind on full display as a harsh whisper spread among the court. “So you take even Blörbo from me, your greed knows no bounds.”

Mary Meyer Coyote & Wolf from 1994

via x + x

#this is a cool find for me because most 'coyote' plush are actually weird foxes or wolves or dogs according to the manufacturer #there's really only a handful of coyotes around it's really exciting to find another that's intended to be that #i thought he was intended to be a wolf until i looked it up very pleasant surprise #i found the coyote at a thrift store very recently :> #plush #coyote

bbc: Some sweet #Silvacre content for your FYP ❤️

#silvacre #suranne jones #rose leslie #vigil #the bbc making a silvacre fan edit was a pleasant surprise :) #i saw the streaming numbers for vigil 2 were very good (understatement) #which makes an s3 at least a possibility #if they can write a story suranne and rose would sign on for #i'm counting on what suranne said that the continuation of the love story is a big part of what brought her back #the series does a good job creating dramatic tension and conflict within a happy relationship that doesn't involve cheating or one dying #if they do a 3rd season i hope that continues #i mean the series started with amy in the worst possible place emotionally and psychologically so surely they wouldn't go there again #s2 with its wlw mlm solidarity/parallel storyline and giving us more insight into amy and how far she's come since s1 #on top of all the other things i liked this season (which i enjoyed quite a bit in addition to the ship) #at heart it's very critical of the british government and military/war machine and some reviews seem to have missed that part #anyway i'm pleased as punch that a prestige bbc drama has two women in love at its center and a lead as compelling as amy #and that it's pulling in the numbers even without the submarine and claustrophobia (admittedly a cool premise) #keep making the fanvids bbc social media team we appreciate you #queue

An absolutely spherical bird

Borb!!!

#I love round birds so much oh my god #over the weekend I went to a place and it was a pleasant surprise but they had a small courtyard where they kept a bunch of doves #and they didn’t allow people to touch the doves sadly but they were so round and adorable and I loved them very much

I received my copy of @yugsly's new book Viscera Objectica a little while ago and finally had a slice of time enough to read through it and appreciate it fully !! ^-^ Really stunning artwork and an absolutely beautiful story - I'm very pleased that a story like this has been told so lovingly and exists out in the published world now!!

#viscera objectica #hits close to home for me in a few different ways! #i'm amazed it arrived so early esp to rural Canada LOL it was a very pleasant surprise to have it arrive in the mail a couple weeks ago! #gallytrottings #theodor #philbert

i'm gonna say it. for a manga that is so centered on free will, inheritance of will and freedom overall people sure love to theorize about luffy's entire life being forged by others with him being predestined as nika's next reincarnation huh

#the fruit vibed with luffy yes but he could have very well died without awakening the fruit #'kuma saved luffy because he was nika' my brother in christ that is his FRIEND'S SON #HIM AWAKENING THE FRUIT IS LIKE. A YIPPEE PLEASANT SURPRISE MOMENT LIKE 'HOLY SHIT IT HAPPENED???' #LIKE WITNESSING A METEOR SHOWER THAT ONLY APPEARS AFTER AN AMOUNT OF YEARS KINDA SHIT EXCEPT NO ONE PREDICTED THIS NOT EVEN LUFFY HIMSELF #the leaks for ch 1100 more specifically some people's comments made me want to eat a brick #the world of one piece is massive not everything is centered on luffy!!!! him being 'destined' to be nika/joyboy FUCKS OVER everything #he's a chosen one on the sense that he chose himself. if that makes any sense #i'm not sorry for this rant anyways #ranting #one piece rant #one piece #monkey d. luffy #one piece nika #one piece theory #because if anything luffy awakening joyboy was a damn gamble that paid off. i could elaborate #one piece luffy #straw hat luffy #one piece joyboy #joyboy #one piece manga spoilers #i. i think

Roger Delgado makes a brief appearance as an unnamed but helpful Argentine diplomat, in Overseas Press Club - Exclusive!: Two Against the Kremlin (1.13, ABPC, 1957)

#fave spotting #roger delgado #overseas press club exclusive! #two against the kremlin #delgado!master #classic doctor who #doctor who #abpc #1957 #classic tv #a very pleasant surprise! i assumed i was all done with finding blorbos in OPCE but then up pops Rog for a little scene in the final episode #he's an embassy diplomat‚ which was kind of his stock in trade role before he fell into villain work #not much variation in images bc he's only onscreen for about 30 seconds to give Ralph Bellamy's US newspaperman some tips on #getting his family out of Moscow. I've mentioned in other OPCE posts that the veracity of the 'true stories' told is difficult to pin down #Bellamy is playing journalist Eddy Gilbert‚ a very real person‚ and the details of his marriage to a Russian ballet dancer‚ Tamara‚ and the #opposition they faced from Russian authorities is certainly true; their relationship was well known enough to have inspired a film‚ 1953's #Never Let Me Go starring Clark Gable as Gilmore and Gene Tierney as Tamara (albeit with names changed and some highly dramatic additions #to their story). how much is true of the rest of this tv ep is anyone's guess but it's certainly among the more believable #and there's nothing too objectionable (accounting for cold war era attitudes‚ i mean)

was debating on whether I should post this or not but I spent so much time on it...🍎 I've been studying the death note art style, and for me studying an art style just means drawing myself as practice 💀

#this was made to be my new pfp but I got too attached to my near pfp so I just made it my header instead lol #I was very pleasantly surprised to find some people asking about it!! thank you fr!! #I didn't post it originally just cause I didn't think anyone would care much whether I did or didn't so ty for asking 🫶🫶 #what do I put in the tags HAHAHA #death note #death note manga #death note art #fanart #anime #self insert #oc #original character #<<< technically lol #elle draws #this is basically just a redraw btw of that one official art of light except I changed the scythe to a notebook because I am lazy #I actually really like how the hands are rendered in DN it was one of the pleasant discoveries I made that I'll be absorbing into my style #I have an anime artstyle one too but I haven't finished that yet #there are some parts where I sort of gave up on following the style tbh like hair in DN is so stringy you see every single strand #alas I am lazy (2)
