Christian iconography? in my Merlin??

#it's more likely than you think #ok has anyone written meta about religion in merlin or #i don't mean based on historical facts #i mean literally based on merlin canon #because i'm fascinated #they didn't dwell too much on it (for understandable reasons) #but that scene where merlin talks to his mother and says “THE GODS will protect me”? #implying they're both polytheists #whereas arthur and gaius say things like “thank god” #i'm reading too much into things again probably #i just want to know if the writers gave it some thought even if it wasn't included in the show #i don't know shit about the introduction of christianity to britain but like #isn't it roughly around this time that it was gaining predominance over paganism (5th-ish century??) #so it's possible yeah? idk idk #i just wanna know if the writers thought about any of this #or if merlin mentioning “the gods” was just a random line #merlin #bbc merlin #ramblings #merlin meta #eta: pls read added meta in the reblogs!

Chara Week Day 5: Ghost

Every time I see that machine in the True Lab, I wonder if it could possibly be Chara's soul in there? Probably unlikely, but not impossible... It's interesting to think about what the implications of that would be.

A version with no text and then a version with just the machine, because I think it looks pretty cool and ominous alone as well.....

#chara week #chara week 2023 #undertale #safeutdr #chara dreemurr #my art #chara #undertale chara #chara undertale #true lab #I'm just thinking that. while it's possible that their soul shattered when they and Asriel died. we don't actually KNOW what happened #and human souls persist for a little while after death..... idk I'm bad at coming up with theories but I'm Thinking about it #and I will continue thinking about it even though it's probably not significant at all #ANYWAY it gave me a cool art idea so here you go. and hrm. yes technically I got that line from the Stay Calm fnaf fansong. specifically. #i don't like fnaf but the song is cool........... I'm pretty sure it gave me the idea for this drawing when i sketched it last may #btw yeah that's why i did this drawing specifically for this prompt. i had the sketch lying around and thought it would be fun to finish #ALSO I'm realizing that the dark ominous backgrounds of the True Lab are soooo fun to draw. especially with red glowy effects #AUGH oh no....... my habit of rambling excessively in the tags is returning........ I'll stop now lol

on a less serious side, bad and foolish having witnesses who are somewhat normal and regular to their usual strange and deranged antics is so hysterical. bad playing the role of kidnapped and felon this time around, letting himself get captured, pretending to be soooo guilty and talking like he’s actually gonna snitch. foolish doing it half for fun, half for show, because he knows cellbit is the killer already - he just needs nails for bad’s coffin because he’s gonna be the scapegoat, and he’s bored. if they were alone maybe they’d trade more intel - they’re on the same page but can’t exactly confirm nor allude to that with an audience, so it just devolves into their usual antics. meanwhile bagi is sweating and convinced bad is definitely about to spill everything she’s told him, falling for bad’s little ‘oh I’m so easily caught and convinced’ act harder than anyone else, trying to avoid bad’s arrest or worse, cellbit’s - while really what’s going on is bad and foolish’s homoerotic batshit insane cop and robber routine, where you’re not sure if someone’s getting arrested or if they’re about to make out. and aypierre is just there

#like foolish and bad are engaging in the wildest ‘yes and…’ per usual but bagi is normal and genuinely concerned for bad jfjskgkdkej #I love bagi man whenever bad does his usual bit (lying for fun) (pushing buttons) she takes it so seriously like you’ll get used to it soon #and like yeah he did really want some info out of bad their bullshit usually ends in informational exchanges one way or another but like #idk it really is ‘they know eachother better than anyone else’ in the most batshit way possible. immortal nonsense I suppose #bad and foolish who would commit war crimes against one another to the horror of everyone else but that’s just like fun bonding for them #why are they landduo when they should really be batshit fucking insane duo 🤨 #mcyt #qsmp #q!bbh #q!foolish #q!bagi #bbh #foolish gamers #oibagi #z speaks

idk. i read an article the other day about how the structure of pop songs is changing. how producers advise artists now to put the best part--choruses, hooks--right at the beginning, or at least within the first 30 seconds of the song, because otherwise people will scroll right past on tiktok and instagram.

idk. the same article explained that songs are getting shorter and shorter because you need people to loop you on spotify to make any money at all, and of course a 2 minute song is looped more than a 5 minute song, just sort of due to how time works.

idk. can i fault artists for wanting to make a living? but how dreadful to make art like this.

idk. i've always been a defender of pop music despite feeling at home in punk, because i don't think there's anything bad in humans sometimes wanting something simple, something easy to listen to, something immediately relatable. it's an idea that dates back all the way to romanticism. sometimes all we want is to dance and sing along and know that everyone everywhere feels heartbreak.

but idk! that's the consumer end of it. do we really want to be catered to like this? do we want to be presented with music that is cut and rearranged and bastardized and bastardized and bastardized all so it can catch our constantly waning attention? who needs to change first? one of us will have to.

and idk! the article somewhat nonchalantly ended by saying that "of course," there are some genres where people will still appreciate longer songs, "like rock and techno," as if rock artists aren't struggling to pay bills all the same.

idk, man. i'm old enough to remember hearing a song on the radio, or even fucking mtv, and going out the next day to buy the full album with my pocket money, just hoping it'll be as good as that one song. and if it wasn't, was that really so bad? i'd rip my favorites off the cd to burn my own mixtape, and then i'd sell the cd to someone else, for them to enjoy. but those were different times. sometimes i find artists that don't offer cds anymore at all.

idk. idk. i'm going to uninstall every app and handwrite a letter to sony to demand all songs be a minimum of 8 minutes long. figure it out.

#idk! #this was supposed to be shorter and funnier but. idk. #i remember being in advanced music in grade 13 with all my punk boys and violin girls and we all vowed to each other to #never write ad jingles for a living. because that seemed like the worst possible thing to do with our talent #selling your soul to profit #now it seems like all popular music is that #so idk #oh yeah article sourced but its german because im german. tschuldigung

burrows end ep1 is SO GOOD god im sorry but i really can't imagine the audacity of some ppl watching a 2 minute trailer for a season of Dimension 20 that hasn't come out yet and confidently saying "i know better than any of the experts involved in making it and i think they should've used a different system for this game"

like i can't even IMAGINE being aabria and logging on after the trailer for something i worked really hard on dropped and seeing a bunch of people being like 'ugh dnd was such a bad choice of system' when they had SEEN NONE OF THE SHOW??!!?! how would you know???

anyway, everything she does is literally perfect and SO immediately captivating. she is both generous and awe-inspiring in her command of the table and it is an honor to even get to watch her do what she does at all!!!! literally blessed with the presence of a ttrpg and storytelling goddess and some of y'all have the audacity to complain. couldn't be me though!

#also like.... idk do ppl give this same energy to the white man dms?? i think not #like yeah different systems are great! #but i think what makes D20 special is all the ways that they take the system everyone knows best and show you #all the possibilities you can achieve with it #idk my personal opinion but i think if you say dnd is a bad storytelling system u simply lack creativity #know the rules so you can break them baby! #anyway #needed to rant about this somewhere #dimension 20 #burrow's end #aabria iyengar

she’s so darling to me honestly <3

#i think i finally decided her name should be angela #her possible names were thelma dawn denise sylvia but they all reminded me of real 70s singers #and the other famous angela is davis but she’s an activist so #she’s supposed to be the love child of donna diana pam brenda sykes and shelly duvall #im still working on her outfits but that seventies edit really pushed me into the right direction #she’s a disco singer turned actress/model so yasss a generational talent #and i almost finished her house a couple weeks back but i stopped when i started making hairs 😭 #i built a whole house and made a hair just for her…this is crazy! #she also used to be a fairy and her name was sarai? idk you guys keep up with saturngalore lore but yeah #anyways idk if anyone will read this long but tysm if you did ily 💗🫶🏾 #🪐 speaking #angela haynes

[smilesrobotlover]

Some worldbuilding stuff I enjoy playing with:

The highest honor a man can have in Hyrule besides royalty or the hero is to be knighted. There are soldiers but they are simply soldiers. Knights on the other hand are blessed by the queen herself, and are knighted typically because they match the qualities of a hero: strong spirit, unwavering courage, and so on. The knights of Hyrule are the strongest fighters and defend the castle if it’s attacked.

The highest honor a woman can have in Hyrule is the status of a maiden. Maidens are blessed by the queen as well and typically match the qualities of the princess with the goddess’s bloods in her veins: wise and powerful with divine magic. Though their magic is not as strong as the princess/Queen’s, together, they are significantly powerful and can help in defense of the castle.

#gonna explore this possibly in a certain fic cuz I find the maidens and the knights so interesting #but yeah the knights and maidens are meant to parallel the hero and the princess #and before anyone says #yeah this is messed up and slightly misogynistic #that’s what makes it fun to explore :) #smiles rambles #idk I love world building #only the strongest fighters and strongest magical users can be a knight or maiden #the honor does not go to anyone #and also you need a good personality too lol #I mean there was that one rant Raven had in the manga #knighthood is a big deal #the four swords manga might be the only one with both the maidens and the knights #the oracle of ages and seasons had only knights #and alttp had maidens #but with both knights and maidens?? it goes crazy #so shadow and Vaati went for the knights and the maidens cuz they knew they would be too powerful together

anyone else sick to their stomach w fear over this or is it just me

#if that's mobius i will be drinking bleach just a heads up #also why the FUCK is loki back in the prisoner suit literally what the actual hell is going on in the rest of the season #my only guess could be that somehow they permanently stuck in the past and yk that one promo photo where them and mobius are shaking hands #over a table and loki is in the prison suit? yeah so my guess is they're stuck in the past and get captured and have to do introductions w #mobius all over again and also possibly whoever pruned loki in the future intentionally prunes mobius to eradicate him from the future #or smth idk im genuinely scared shitless of the next ep cause wdym there will be a big cliffhanger???!! WHAT DO U MSAN????!!! #lokius #loki spoilers #loki season 2 #loki #loki series #mobius m mobius

i didn't want to make any announcements earlier because i kept feeling like i was going to come back to this, but with school starting and other stuff on top of it I'm now certain i won't

the real winners are all of us who got some art out of this, those who maybe met some new people, whether as direct competition or just someone who's oc they thought looked cool, those who made propaganda and of course the plethora of other, more specific oc tournaments this has spawned <3

may your ocs continue to prosper

#secret in the tags hehe: #while im scraping this tournament because im beginning to feel overwhelmed just thinking abt it #there's a possibility of maybe perhaps smaller second one someday #but im not promising anything #so like yeah idk have a good life everyone good luck with your ocs <3
