you might have heard of the flower crowned martial god, but get ready for the flower bound martial god
because of his inability to retain much spiritual energy for 800 years while having an immortal/god body (and the fact hc would give him flowers), xl physically cannot go very far from flowers or gardens without some sort of backlash
this leads to him bouncing between gardens, for royals and upper class people, tending their gardens
because of this, his very meager amount of spiritual energy left adapts to find as many flowers as possible to keep him from the backlash
how on earth would he find hc? well his bad luck struck again and he found himself in ghost city, drawn to a large garden in paradise manor
BONUS lqq having a large garden in his palace because that's where his guoshi had him study when he was a child and even though he hates his guoshi, it still feels like home (tm)
BONUS BONUS the little white flowers, no matter if they were left or planted for him, gives xl a little bit of spiritual energy so the garden that hc has? fucking CRAZY, think catnip for xl, that garden alone could power him for DECADES on a spiritual energy level, jw better watch out because give him a gew years (and plenty of papapa with hc) and those shackles will easily be broken
BONUS BONUS BONUS white flower catnip + cat curse... little kitten xl, rolling around in the garden, lost in five seconds because he is a very small, very little, kitten and the flowers are very, very big (hc's spiritual energy and how much time xl has a) honed his gardening skills and b) spent time there)

Recently I saw this beautiful art of the Mario princesses by leharc_blueheart on Instagram that were inspired by Alphonse Musca, and wanted to try out his style as well.
Art Nouveau is sort of the opposite of my usual style in many ways despite really liking how it looks, especially since it’s always weirdly reminded me of one of my favorite characters, N Harmonia of the Pokémon series.
So here’s the king of Team Plasma!
(There’s a speedpaint over on my Instagram and you should go check out leharc_blueheart’s art, it’s beautiful)

Plant of the Day
Saturday 24 February 2024
Great for a shady place under mature deciduous trees Galanthus nivalis (snowdrop, Candlemas bells, fair maids of February, little sister of the snows) will form large colonies. This early flowering bulbous perennials are fragrant and provide food for early pollinators.

List of some movies that I enjoy and the books they’re based on which often have different vibes than the movie but both are equally good in different ways
Howl’s Moving Castle: The book is titled the same but has very different vibes (movie is more whimsical fantasy while book feels more like realistic fantasy if that makes sense) and also has two companion books in which Howl and Sophie make appearances! Book by Dianna Wynne Jones
Kiki’s Delivery Service: The book is titled the same but again very different vibes (Movie Kiki deals with depression and losing your passion and Book Kiki is cute little witch dealing with people’s problems in cute little witch ways) Book by Eiko Kadono
Stardust: Book titled the same but different vibes (movie is intense and life threatening adventures, book is more fun travel adventures and much slower paced) Book by Neil Gaiman
The Secret of Moonacre: The book is titled The Little White Horse (similar to Stardust the book is a lot slower paced and less life threatening adventures but just as fun and interesting as well as a lot of characters have more depth to them than in the movie) Book by Elizabeth Goudge
The Last Unicorn: Book has same name (from what I remember the book is almost word for word exactly like the movie) Book by Peter S Beagle
Ella Enchanted: Book has the same name (ok this one is a little more controversial. In my opinion the book has a lot more depth and is a lot more interesting in the world building and characters, and the movie is a horrible adaptation. But if you look at the movie as a completely separate thing it is still enjoyable and has fun songs and is a classic from my childhood) Book by Gail Carson Levine
Mary and the Witch’s Flower: The book is titled The Little Broomstick (I have yet to read it but I have just checked it out so I will make sure to update this once I’ve read it! I expect the book will probably have better world building as the movie was fun but didn’t have time to go into depth and the mechanics of the witch’s world) Book by Mary Stewart
Earwig and the Witch: Book titled the same (I also have yet to read this book but have just checked it out and will update later. I think it’ll probably be similar to what I expect with the Little Broomstick where it will probably show a more developed world) Book by Dianna Wynne Jones
Ronja the Robber’s Daughter: Technically not a movie but a tv series. Book has the same name (I also haven’t read it but have just checked it out and will update but I think the show was very well done story wise though the animation wasn’t my favorite and I expect that it probably followed the book fairly closely) Book by Astrid Lindgren
Avalon High: Book has same name and similar plot but characters are switched around (this is actually one where I like the movie a lot better. I feel like the book is extremely predictable and does exactly what you expect to happen while the movie switches it up in a fun way that I feel like also makes sense and isn’t just doing it for the shock factor) Book by Meg Cabot
Tales From Earthsea: One book from the Earthsea Cycle has the same name (I’ve only read the first two books and so technically haven’t gotten to the book that the movie has been adapted from but it’s on my list and I will update once I eventually get to it. So essentially I’ve read the prequels that lead up to the events in the movie and I’ve heard the movie is vaguely different but has similar themes and plot points to the book) Books by Ursula K Le Guin
That’s all I can think of for now but if you have any suggestions to add let me know and I’ll see if I’ve watched the movie and read the books and if so I’ll make an addition to this post!
