are you really an ao3 user if you've never read a >50k fanfic that is incredibly fucking good, much much better than any original work out there, with eloquent writing so deep and poetic that you have to pause after every few sentences, process it and scream into a muffled pillow?
bonus if you're supposed to be studying for something or other but decided to read just one more chapter, and finished the whole thing :')

lemon i hope you know (if you didn't already from your notification boom solely from me) that your prev hero au designs did something to me. fundamentally altered my brain somehow. im literally stuffing them in my mouth how did you do that
HHEELLLOOOO THIS WAS A LOVELY NOTIFICATION BOMB TO WAKE UP TO, HOLDING ALL THESE TAGS NEAR AND DEAR TO MY HEART
as for how (i'm seizing this as an opportunity to share a bunch of process work):
there was a butt load of trial and error
From what I can remember (this all started 3 years ago holy shit,,,) I worked on Kevin's design first. The only 2 ref images I've found are included in the screenshot, but I'm pretty sure I was looking at those in addition to all of the other Impa+Sheik designs from the games, OG Hyrule Warriors concept art for Impa+Sheik, and the Sheikah pages from BOTW's Creating A Champion.
here's Link's stuff and YIPPEE I HAVE HIS REFERENCE IMAGES 🙌🙌
(BIG BIGG shoutout to @/historyofhyrule btw for archiving so much concept art and everything from all of the zelda games. None of this brainrot would've been possible without them.)
butt load of trial and error cont. especially for the colour of his scarf omg (I was looking at some of the hero's garb colour variants from OG Hyrule Warriors, and was conscious of the two other scarf wearing Links in Zelda Not Canon)
I can't find Zelda's inspo/ref images either but I remember referencing Griffith and Casca from Berserk, Kushana from Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind, Ashei from TP, some of the OG Hyrule Warriors concept art for Princess Zelda, and of course some of the other canon Zelda designs (ALttP, TP, HW, OoT, BOTW).
I'd say Kushana was and still is the biggest inspo for Prev!Zelda, even personality wise I find myself looking back to her and how she was in the Nausicaa manga and movie.
final design thoughts: I really REALLY wanted the three of them to look cohesive with each other SO,
I always carried over screenshots of the other members of the trio onto their individual canvases to make sure that any changes I made to one design didn't stand out too much from the others,
I'm also pretty sure I worked on Link and Zelda's design simultaneously, or at least flipped back and forth between them a LOT when doing their armour (I wanted it to be evident that they were produced by the same smiths of the royal family yknowww),
and finally I made sure there were a couple of shared colours between their colour palettes
Thankee Thankee for reading this far and I hope y'all enjoyed my process stuff :))!!!

I’ve been listening to a LOT of Ricky Montgomery lately and it’s always these two songs that remind me of hannigram so much
Please let me know what you think I was thinking the first one (Mr. Loverman) is wills POV when Hannibal goes to jail or when he goes to Italy
The second one (My hearts buried in Venice) is Hannibal’s POV when he’s in Italy and missing will

Felix Ravinstill & Festus Creed + Langston Hughes
—The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes (2023)
Gifmaker's Notes:
I remember this poem being used in a couple artworks and gifs in some other fandoms a year ago. I've actually wanted to make this gifset for a while, but I genuinely didn't think they had enough screentime to make it properly. I considered making this about all the mentors towards Felix, but honestly, I think simplicity is best since finding suitable footage of other mentors would probably make this more challenging.
Apologies for the bad contrast with the type and it's background at times. As a member of the bad eyes club, I tried my best, but Felix's corpse was fighting me.

I cackle sometimes thinking of Alhaitham x Akasha hacker!s/o. S/o, the disillusioned Kshahrewar scholar who rebels by using their tech/programming knowledge to disseminate classified documents and satire:
"6 DARSHANS CREATED GOD FROM AN EMO CYBORG DOLL!!!"
"100% RAEL: CHEST GEM proof of reincarnated KING DESHRET"
And Alhaitham, the Scribe who has to deal with all this chaos, not realizing the very person responsible is that cutie who talks physics w/him at Puspa Cafe
(not a request – just a headcanon i thought would b funny xD)
skjdkshuh, nonnie! I love your brain for this. This would be so funny, pls!
"emo cyborg doll", I'm deceased 💀
Imagine someone barging into Alhaitham's office, telling him of the chaos and he goes through the akasha profiles of people to see what is going on.
Maybe Alhaitham checks Kaveh's profile first only to see "the peskiest roommate™" as an entry and he is almost inclined to not fix that specific "mistake".
In the entire scientific database, the sources have been replaced by "Source: Trust me, bro!"
Maybe he tries to fight against the influx of fake knowledge all day, annoyed that whenever he has cleaned out one registry another one has been manipulated by the hacker again.
Frustrated he stops for the day, especially since he has agreed to meet up with you, and maybe you'd be able to distract him a bit from today's chaos. But little does he know you were the cause of it.
He tells you of it and you feign innocence, maybe even feel bad that he is the one who has to deal with it alone but deep down you can't help but mischievously smile. Especially since you replaced one line on his akasha profile. What used to be "Scribe" now says "sexiest man alive" and you wonder how long it takes him to find that.
