#study faerie

[faeriefully]

if it helps you get the job done it’s not stupid— I’m writing my ASL notes in fountain pen and reminding myself that I’m not wasting ink, I’m not ruining the fanciness of the pen, I’m not using it for an unworthy cause— the pen makes me happy and making study guides is more bearable when I am happy. It’s serving purpose. It’s a pen.

If it helps me get the job done it’s not stupid.

wait i'm so curious about the lough canamac disaster in 1969 (nice), if it's in modern inver then was horse man pascal involved?

Nope :) he was hibernating at this point in time. This is not at all spoilers btw. The Lough Cánamac Disaster was freak storm event on the lough which flooded the town and smashed up pretty much all of its infrastructure. The old Hooks barracks was destroyed in the process, including the satellite barracks outside the town. All of them are on the lough coast.

At first it was thought to be just a really awful storm, or even if a supernatural cause was considered it was usually just "well we can never really know why a faery would do something like this". Well, they did find out why pretty quickly, when the first recovery teams got to the southern Hooks barracks they saw that the rangers there had been discarding litter in the lough, including old weapons, expired flares, cleaning chemicals, and food refuse. nbd usually, the lough has been a sewage receptacle (like most populated bodies of water) since humans first got there but the rusted weapons were a problem. People knew they were the problem because every one of the rusted crossbow bolts/nets/spikes etc had been thrown back out and disintegrated the barracks, inhabitants included, like a shotgun blast against a piece of plywood. It sent a clear message - 'do not fucking dump your rusty weapons here'. The perpetrator of the storm is not known.

Like the table of contents I posted says, this led to a reform of ranger organisations in the south of Inver. Strict guidelines for handling weapons were introduced and the rangers began to take on a more proactive role in environmental stewardship and land management, to limit their impact. By the 21st century, ranger duties are 70:30 ecology vs anything else. Because of the disaster, the Hooks barracks had to be entirely rebuilt and so are now the most modern of the main barracks buildings, with a sophisticated aostrology* archive and its own radar tower & docks for the floatplane shared by the Hooks and Sharps

#normally don't much like the Man Vs Nature theme a lot of fairy stories run with but i needed an excuse to turn them into ecologists #*aostrology is the study of faeries (from aos sidhe) the Science Of The People #setting: inver

There should be a more popular school of headcanon where you take fantasy characters and say what major they would have if they grew up a normal human. I’ll go Cristina Mendoza Rosales would 100% be a kickass anthropology major in another life.

#or public relations … maybe she’d do both #Would line up with her canon studies (faeries the cold peace faerie-shadowhunter relations) #s rereads tda #s speaks #Cristina Rosales #tda #tsc

for research: Are there any books you know of that involve siblings of children with chronic illnesses?

#the only ones I can think of are My Sister's Keeper #and Wonder #but i need to find if there's more #I spent two hours in a professor's office and now I have a possible seed of an idea for a thesis paper #g.txt #faerie's getting her degree #college #grad school #cancer #siblings #cancer siblings #childhood cancer #books #research #master's thesis #grad student #grad studies #university

Bellefleur - The Stargazer

When Bellefleur was new, she was shade-born in winter, a daughter of La Delenda, that dreaded house of murderous faerie doppelgangers whose every pleasure lies in the destruction of their Other.

Like every faerie since the Division of the Sun, she was damned to never see the Glory.

She is a scholar, now. She put her sword aside. She studies the idiot, sadistic stars that keep her kind imprisoned, and dreams of both brighter and darker histories long past, when she would have been free to save or damn herself like mortals do. 

In a brighter history, she would have been an angel.

In a darker history, she would have been a storm.

In this - this broken and miscarried world - her kind are so reduced that she will need a mortal man, some ape, to reach her ends. But she will not be thwarted. No murderer of La Delenda has ever planned a death so vast. She will find a mortal with a seed of promise. She will be the gardener of his soul. She will coax him to the full flower of grandeur, and then - once he has grown so tall he towers above the reach of heaven - she will extract the poison from his petals and kill this wretched history.

She will guide his hand to the high clear sword that will shatter the chain of being, and he will be the sword in hers.

(What an unexpected pleasure, to fall in love him.)

#I think it's really important to understanding Bellefleur's character to understand what kind of faerie she is #there is another house - La Menage Verglas - that serves the Stranger: one of the special gods of the Wood #by the Stranger's tricksome will every time a faerie is born into La Menage Verglas another faerie is also created #their perfect double - like them in every way - into La Delenda #and their double's absolute obsession from the moment they are born is to kill their Other and take their place #from the Stranger's POV this is great: all of her servants are either constantly preparing for a confrontation to the death #with someone as smart as fast and as talented as them #or they have WON such a confrontation #from Bellefleur's POV it was like being born with a heroin addiction #and laboring towards the destruction of this person exactly like her was the only way to get her fix #she's still white-knuckling through it every day - she's never managed to go three days together without thinking about her Other - #but for La Delenda there's nothing more punk than going 'you know what actually fuck this' and becoming a pacifist #she put all of that murderous drive into getting her phds #she's one of the Wood's foremost scholars now - especially when it comes to the Division of the Sun or the Antelucan world #and now she's managed to escape out into Mundus where she can finally put all that study into action #and WHAT A SURPRISE to be so pleased with the mortal man who is the linchpin of her plans! #she means him no harm - her feelings are no impediment #she means to help him succeed beyond his wildest ambitions #his ascension to godhood is just a part of her plans #how fortunate to find in him a genuine lover and partner #he's feral and she thinks that's just so great #heretic #dice matters

Character for a story I'm writing inspired by the worldbuilding from @not-a-space-alien's wonderful "Watch your step" series ✨️

So far I've not decided on an official name for her yet, but I do have her personality figured out (Full of Spite, Feral, etc). The little green guy is a younger sibling she's been teaching to hunt now that he's old enough to venture out beyond the hive, and I'm sure that will go perfectly well with no issues at all :)

#gt #g/t #giant/tiny #gt oc #I swear I have been doing stuff in the background I just work really slowly 😭 #But then again I did kind of create this blog while I was immensely busy with final coursework & my job so that's kind of on me. #I do wanna start posting stuff here more regularly #also I've gotta go do some hand studies lmao. #The curse of enjoying gt but being underpracticed at both hands & dramatic perspective 😔.... #blood tw #ask to tag #Hmm maybe I should've put those tags earlier idk. It doesnt let you rearrange them on android regrettably. #But yeah she's 100% ready to bite people #the human in this isnt going to be having a magical moment of discovering faeries are real #so much as he's going to be attacked by a Big Angry Bug.
