A thought about the John Wick universe rattling around my head like a bean in a jar:

Everyone who meets john wick is in some ways immediately in love with him. Every movie introduces new characters who greet this isolated, self-contained man (who barely says a word) with gentle joy at their reunion, even if - especially if - they’re there to kill him. Immediate loyalty and affection. Oh John I was so sorry to hear about your recent loss. Even sorrier to have to kill you. No one regrets more than I due to the love and loyalty I bear you. Please, how might I assist you, just say the word. Let me break all the rules just to lay my cloak at your feet. It will blow my entire life up irrevocably to help you - but you do need help and we go way back and you’re looking at me with your big brown eyes, so like I will definitely do that for you baby. More than one enemy pauses mid-fight to allow him a respectful breather, just thrilled to do so. All this while the movie denies us ANY FLASHBACKS AT ALL to his previous encounters with any of these people. Closest we get is the pencil anecdote? I think? A veil has been delicately drawn over his past that inspired such devotion, but as a viewer you are 100% convinced the love is REAL. They do go way back and it must have been quite a time. Even ‘antagonists’ who hold the role of smug pre-dead guy are all ‘oh John you’re just so gosh darn impressive, I tell all my friends about how great you are, genuinely honoured to be murdered by you’. And you know what, that’s fair.

#john wick #is excommunicado except he isn’t bc of the big brown eyes as far as everyone is concerned #they are correct #text post shenanigans

Bruce: Why are you kids making such a ruckus this early in the morning?

Damian: Father, the alien is taking too long in the bathroom!

Clark: [singing in the bathroom]

Tim: You’re jumping the queue, demon brat! Get back in line!

Bruce: There are over 20 bathrooms in this house. Why are you all fighting over this one?

Tim: The wifi signal is the strongest here.

Steph: The natural lighting is the best here!

Dick: This one has a jacuzzi!

Damian: I’m your son!

Jason: Because Tim and Damian are here.

Duke: This bathroom’s the least haunted.

Cass: [finishes tying Jason’s and Damian’s shoelaces together]

Bruce: Well this is my bathroom. Go get your own. If you start fighting, no, when you start fighting outside this door, I’m getting Alfred to bring out the water hose. [enters the bathroom and shuts the door behind him]

Bruce, outside Clark's room on the Watchtower: "Clark? What's happened, your message said it was an emergency--"

Clark: "Oh good I'm losing my mind." *yanks Bruce in*

Clark, exhausted, rocking a wailing Jon: "Lois had an emergency and I really need your help because no matter what I do he won't stop crying."

Bruce, rubbing his temples: "Uhh."

Clark: "Well?"

Bruce, glaring at him: "Well? Well what?"

Clark: "You've had so many kids!"

Bruce: "None of them were ever babies! Call me back in eight years!"

Both of them flinched as Jon wailed louder.

Clark, in despair: "I'm calling Diana."

-----------------------------

Diana, with lasso clenched in Jon's hand: "Why do you cry, little one?"

Jon: *still shrieking and sobbing*

Diana, looking up at them both: "This usually works."

---------------------------

Barry, hands on his knees as he examined Jon: "Maybe he's in pain?"

Bruce glared at Barry as Clark panicked, hands messing up hair.

-----------------------------

Oliver, cooing: "Uncle Ollie's got this lil' guy, you just need some white noise." *turns on his playlist*

Jon:*screaming now*

Bruce: "You're completely useless."

--------------------------------

Hal: "What's going on in here?" *elbowing his way into the crowded room*

Bruce: "Busy right now, Jordan." *frantically going through scientific articles*

Hal stared in horror at the child, who J'onn and Arthur are negotiating with while vigorously rocking the screaming toddler: "Jeez, what the hell are you two doing?" *conjures a giant green rattled and shakes it*

Jon, utterly transfixed abruptly stops crying. Clark raises his head off the table the second the sound stops, relieved.

Hal: "Want to see something even cooler?" *makes a plane and has it fly around*

Jon, reaching out to it, smiling a little despite the tears. Half the room isn't breathing.

Hal, grinning: "That's right little man, it is cool. So guys, seriously, why are we all in here?"

The League, as the small plane vanishes: "Don't stop!"

Hal, startled: "Whoa, relax! Uh, who wants to see a dinosaur?"

Headcannon thats dumb maybe: Four gets repeated nightmares and spaces out constantly until her pallet is reconfigured. She’s annoyed with herself but doesn’t know why this is happening until it ‘randomly’ stops.

Eight doesn’t know about this until Four randomly mentions it and she’s like: “Wait a f*cking minute-”

And Four goes: “You mean….. those weren’t dreams???”

Your WoL's invisible and inaudible for a day! How do they choose to spend it? Pull pranks? Spy on someone or sneak in somewhere forbidden? Simply rest?

#Vivi would scribble a message for his bf explaining the situation #asking to keep the secret #and run off to shenanigans.#Playing ghost? Sowing chaos in a city?#Disrupting some boring meeting?#Wiping out an enemy outpost but in a Fun Way?#If he happens to be in Ishgard #he'd enact revenge on all those snooty Proper Elezen.#The amount of damage he'd do in a day would match that of a small army of pixies.#ffxiv #vivien rell #wolqotd #text post

I’m reading Witch King by Martha Wells, and now that I have read more than one (1) series by this author, I have been suddenly brained with a two-by-four sharpied over with “realizing that I really enjoy novels by Martha Wells because they live in the specific niche created by the intersection of casually and thoroughly queer casts and non-romance storylines”

I am as ever a sucker for non-human main characters struggling with their very human feelings, which is why I jumped on Witch King the moment I saw “the author of Murderbot wrote another book with a main character that’s non-human,” but I live in this dichotomy where I can really enjoy reading queer romances but I don’t really identify with non-ace characters (which is not actually something I figured out how to differentiate until I was Last Week Years Old). so there are lots of books out there that I enjoy reading but it’s comparatively rare for me to read something that feels like it was written For Me and Martha Wells does that very well

anyway, give me more ace it-pronouns human-spliced robot main characters and people-eating demons who consider rank over gender when finding new bodies to inhabit

#text posts #martha wells #witch king #personal #her castes and universes are also very culturally and ethnically diverse but I've had ace-ness on the mind lately #so it was relevant to my ongoing thoughts #I never really read books that are advertised as specific types of diversity representation #especially with queer books what I like to read is books that are very queer but aren't ABOUT being queer #so I tend to steer clear when people are like read this the mc is a nonbinary lesbian witch without even really saying what the plot is #but martha wells writes books that are queer and brown and INFLUENCED by being queer and brown but #the characters still get to have their stories be ABOUT whatever fun sci fi fantasy shenanigans are ongoing #((inb4: this is my preference not an overal value judgment))#((I just want to read the same books I read when I was a little kid and have them just ALSO be lovingly diverse))#((and I only really read SFF))#in other news I was trying to figure out how to name my flavor of ace #and then I looked up the difference between demi and gray #and I realized gray is what I am looking for #very very dark gray

Perfume chat, because it's hot, summer's ending, and I'm of a mind to list out some of my favourite Hot Weather Perfumes. To be fair, once it gets above 30C/86F, I don't tend to wear scent, but all these I ones I could, and have worn in hot weather, and worth mentioning. Lot of citrus going on here, not much floral, and heavily leaning towards citrus cologne strenght (and away from big floral, gourmand, or sweet eaux de parfum). BYO gender, none of these are marketed specifically one way or another.

-Cédrat Enivrant (Atelier Cologne): the 'cedrat' here is not referring to cedar, but to the ur-citrus known in english as the Citron, aka the mighty Etrog. It's one of the original citrii from which all others spring: it's lumpy, bitter, like 60% rind, and doesn't care what you think. Cedrat Enivrant is a bitter cocktail cologne resembling a French 75 - which is gin and champagne - but dry AF. There's a mintiness, and a pine needle dryness as well. Starts off very high and tart, dries down herbal.

Paris-Deauville (Chanel): part of their Eaux de Chanel cologne-style lighter series, this is an orange/basil combo that stays fairly light and dry - the sweetness is from orange, but otherwise the addition of basil heart note keeps this summery and green. Starts off quite juicy, but 'dries' as it dries, ending in mostly sweet herbs, and the basil is unexpected. Light enough to be a splash bottle though, not a typical Chanel.

Blenheim Bouquet (Penhaligon's): despite going all-in on flashy, heavier things lately, Penhaligon's keeps the old BB on the shelf because I'm p sure it's still one of their best sellers: it's a classic for a reason. Despite listing notes of lemon, black pepper and pine, this comes off mainly with a 'clean pencil shavings' vibe on me, and it suits that freshly-sharpened pencil image. Lemony, sharp, dry, precise. if it was a person it would be Anton Lesser's character in Endeavour.

Melograno (Santa Maria Novella): I sought this out after seeing it on-screen in Casino Royale as one of Vesper Lynd's few belongings in Venice, and it did not disappoint. A warning: despite the name, if you go in expecting a syrupy bath and bodywork's style fruity pomegranate, or dislike things 'that smell like perfume' this perfume is not for you. There is very little, if any, fruit in Melograno, and I confess it's a surprise entry to a cologne-y summer list because it lists several flowers (and oakmoss! and patch!), BUT the reality of it on me is dry dry dryyyy. I have worn this in very hot weather, and the impression is a herbal soap in the cleanest italian bathroom that's ever existed, with a rigid linen handtowel, and some dried flowers in a bowl on the window.

Bergamotto di Positano (Floris): if you DID want fruit, but not syrup, Floris has you covered for orange and mandarin. It steers away from Body Shop fruit with marine notes, but don't let that dissuade you if you avoid CK One types: there's a softness to this from some ginger, green tea, and vanilla in the background. Never goes overly gourmand on me despite the fact that these are all edible things.

Ouarzazate/Series 3 (Comme des Garçons): whaaaaat, an incense in a summer list?? Adding it here as we can't have an entirely citrine list, and this makes the cut due to DRY. CdG did a little series on incense of various styles (the most infamous being Avignon, which does actually smell like a realistic in-use thurible, so hats off to them), and Ouarzazate is their desert incense vibe. It's clean in that dry sauna/spa room sort of way. It's the driest and woodiest of the 4 they did imho. Like walking into a shady, cool, dark wooden room when it's hot outside.

Le Pamplemousse (Miller Harris): MH perfumes divide into those made when Lyn Harris was the nose (interesting, lots of werird herbal combos), and those after she left (generally bigger and sweeter) - this is one of the former. Obviously grapefruit as a theme, which is always a nice bitter citrus for summer, this wears like a crisp white shirt. Despite mentioning things like rhubrarb, the notes are kept in strict order by rosemary, sage, and vetiver. The grapefuit fades as the herbs take over on drydown, manages to evoke clean laundry with no musk. (Bonus points: I have also loved Le Petit Grain from the same house for its twiggy orange tree bundle vibes, but it's discontinued)

Budget options: some countries get great sampling or decanting services (not mine, booooo), and getting 10mls of the above might be easier for you than me, but if not: here's some you can get for a lot less cash but still give you quality-

Vetiver Pamplemousse (Zara): done by theee Jo Malone, so that gives you an idea of the vibe (light, approachable). It's grapefruit, tangerine, and vetiver. Vetiver keeps it dry, quite linear development. Might be slightly 'spicier' than the MH Pampelmousse, or at least more vetiver-forward. Comes in a rollerball for those wanting a short commitment!

4711 (Mäurer & Wirtz): how could i not end on the OG, the classic, the unbeatable 4711. Four-Seven-Eleven has been freshening up people's bathroom routines since 1799, and boasts of a recipe (mostly?) unchanged since Napoleon was tramping around the area. It's citrus, it's lavender, it's romemary, it evaporates in 8 seconds, it's fresh lemony goodness. It's an aftershave, it's a cologne, it's a linen spray, it's a bath soak, is there nothing it cannot do? M&W have started to do endless 'remixes' of the base cologne, in many fruit and floral varieties, but the classic is where it's at. And it costs almost nothing.

#perfume #text post shenanigans #some of these do travel sizes and giftsets (floris and pen's mainly) and SMN does an amaaazing cake soap in that perfume #might do an autumn/winter list later in the season #[edited for typos after posting!]

Bruce: So? What are they doing now?

Clark: They’re sitting on the bench and eating ice cream.

Bruce: How close?

Clark: [squints] Umm, pretty close.

Bruce: How. Close.

Clark: [sighs exasperatedly] There’s a 12 inch gap between them. Bruce, did you call me here to the Batcave to spy on Cass and her date?

Bruce: Cass told me not to follow her, tag her with any recording devices or spy on her using drones or hidden cameras. I haven’t done any of that.

Clark: So I’m your tiny little loophole.

Bruce: Trust me, there’s nothing tiny or little about you, Clark. Now, what flavor are their ice-creams?

Tunic Weaving Process

Marking my second project on a rigid heddle loom, I finally got around to finishing my not-a-cosplay-I-swear tunic to be linked (heh) in the future.

(Edit: Final product here!)

This tunic splits the difference between the original reference image here, and the comic pages. The only noticeable factors are that the hem's curve is somewhat shallow, and that the sleeve details are three parts (as versus five).

The tunic shaping is also modified to be more... Tunic-y. That is to say, made of rectangles and straight seams—so no set-in sleeves, and a bit of a wider shape to account for the woven fabric type.

It will be accompanied by a linen under-tunic and hemp-amber necklace. Made because they all look nice together, but also separately.

[ALL IDs IN ALT TEXT]

Starting out, I calculated how much yarn would be needed for the body (incorrectly), and set up all of my warp threads.

After my first project's hiccups, the warp threads were individually tied so as to minimize risk of uneven tension.

For whatever reason, I decided to curve the hem as part of the piece, rather than enforcing, trimming, and hemming to a curve. (This was also incorrect—or at least a bad move.)

The full, finished back piece is pictured above, and is a little more loosely woven than the front panel, but is still absolutely warm enough to justify material costs.

The neckline for the front was made in two parts starting at the split. The widest part of the neckline was essentially cut away. All fringe was woven in on the neckline (and the hem), and the shoulder seams were bound together with this method as well. Side seams were just back-stitched.

The neckline was crocheted with a lighter yarn as a border, and a faux closure was attached to match the reference.

As mentioned, the smart move would have been to curve the bottom of the tunic through enforcement, trimming, and hemming, so to make the front more even with the back, this is what I ended up doing, despite that it was... Already curved.

The sleeves deserved a gusset, especially because those aid a place that would normally be a weak point on regular fabric, and would be extra prone to pulling on something handwoven like this.

Finally, sleeve decorations were chain-stitched in the accent color to match the neckline.

It took several months of intermittent work to finish, but could have probably been less had the tall task of weaving in several hundred loose threads not daunted me so much.

It was made from alpaca, which I justify via my intention to wear this as it gets colder in the northern hemisphere, but also because I could not get my hands on hemp yarn (which would have made more sense in the context of the setting).

Harry made a deal with Voldemort and anyone he considers family is off limits. So Harry has started going around calling everyone his son.

He walks up to Neville and shouts “You’re now my son. You hear that world? THIS IS MY BOY RIGHT HERE! MY LITTLE MANDRAKE BABY.” Then he walks away and Neville just nods to himself because Harry does odd things sometimes.

Later Harry is running down the halls at Hogwarts and practically throws himself into Luna Lovegood. Harry announces “You are my son now, and I’m very proud of you.” Before kissing her gently on the top of her head and running away again. Luna waves her hand, offering an airy “goodbye father” as he disappears downs the hall.

In the great hall later you can hear Draco Malfoy shouting “No, Potter! Stay away, don’t do it! NooooOOOOOOO!” The rest of the term Harry calls Draco his little dragon and praises him for his amazing intellect and school grades.

Harry and Snape have a glaring contest, Snape is practically daring Harry to do it with his eyes.

Dumbledore calls Harry “my boy” and Harry does the old reverse uno card and Dumbledore nods, eyes twinkling as Harry corrects him stating “You’re my boy now!”

Harry won’t stop, and he’s claiming so many people as his sons that the students in the lower years have started referring to him as Papa Harry.

It’s become a weird cult thing in the media because of Rita Skeeter, and people have begun sending Harry mail asking to be his son and Harry just sits there, so proud of himself.
