#the trees have leaves now

[laddertek]

not etho wanting to put a lovers bench on the sweetheart path between his and tango's...overlooking the bay...

with a switchback path down to the shore...

that's the prettiest little hideaway date spot

#I was gonna leave this as just a tags-only post but w/e it's so pretty and cute so we have fun #already felt inspired from the view of tango's from his porch and balconies. and now that path is a beautiful scene too #put your blorbos on a rest stop bench under the tree overlooking the water! #hermitshipping #tangtho #etho #ethoslab #tango tek #tangotek #hermitcraft #hermitcraft s10 #hermitcraft season 10 #it's giving me cinque terre and lake como nostalgia ngl 🥹 #also side note but ''when tango and I designed the'' gives so much serotonin

Why are ppl scared to call it what it is and say we’re still going thru covid on top of seasonal illness. Like. That’s pretty important right. I was watching the news and they were like oh yeah we have an unprecedented number of flu cases “as well as other sicknesses” without actually saying Covid. No announcement abt vaccinations or masking or anything. Also if I hear someone joking abt “war flashbacks” for mentioning covid I fucking hate u

#source: most of my family members are nurses and it was so bad for one of them they had to be put on a ventilator. in the hospital they #worked at. looking back I think I had a reason to feel a little offput by the shows of support early pandemic #with people tying blue ribbons around trees and lighting signs blue to support healthcare workers #I get that it was supposed to be moral support when we couldn’t do anything but follow health advisories #and it did matter to make them feel uplifted and do something than nothing. im not gonna deny that #but. you can still help now. u know that right. you still have a responsibility here #u can still mask up. u can still get vaxxed and call in sick to avoid infecting others #don’t leave it on healthcare workers to pick up the pieces just because they were doing it before. do u think they had a choice? #nobody likes picking up the slack for someone else and now that we have more tools to do smth couldn’t we just. do it???? #im not a virologist but i also feel like continuing to let it get worse by letting more mutations develop #could continue to set us back since this virus is pretty good at fucking us up long term and finding new ways to do that #while there are ppl still researching covid which is STILL A RELATIVELY NEW VIRUS. and studying possible treatment and cures #yapping #vent

listen listen i need to say this to you because it’s about ozpin but

in volume 3 when he’s trying to transfer the maiden power to pyrrha he says he needs to hear her say yes and gives her a chance to back out (not a real chance, really. but a chance)

and in the lore dump episode we see that the god of light just. immediately accepted that ozma said ok and didn’t even like. have a chance to think about it

there’s something about those two events i’m drawing a line between…… homeboy is Trying to be better and Failing So Bad but he is Trying

HES TRYING TO MAKE SURE NOBODY IS IN THE SAME SITUATION…AUGH,,,he’s trying so hard

because nobody should have to go through something like that without considering it and having a chance to back out, because he didn’t really have a proper choice

BUT HE CANT GIVE EVERYONE A CHOICE BECAUSE OSCAR WAS THROWN INTO THIS WITH NO AGENCY WHATSOEVER AND AUGH IM DYING MY POOR BOY(s)

#tree talks #oscar pine #ozpin #ozmosis #tree answers #augh….dies #no and it’s even worse with pyrrha then just like letting the others leave if they want #cause they didn’t know what the aura machine would do. and it’s just like the merge. #and he doesn’t want anyone who doesn’t have to to experience it #cause he knows what it’s like to have your identity fundamentally changed like that… #and you just KNOW he hates that oscar had to be brought into this #because oscar’s so young #cause usually it’s with adults and the world isn’t actively in danger #and they can take all the time needed #but now it has to be rushed with a kid… #always thinking about them

I need a completely rewritten teen wolf series with Derek Hale as the main character. I think it would heal me.

#we follow Derek from New York. Laura left for beacon hills. it’s been six years since he was back but he hasn’t heard from her #and hes going stir crazy waiting. he packs up and travels back. it’s almost too much immediately. he still can’t get a hold of Laura #he can’t resist going home. it’s like a natural pull that guides him back. all at once he’s 16 again. staring at the wreckage of his life #deputy stilinski is sherrif now. it’s reassuring in the slightest that the police force seems to have moved on from how corrupt it was #he catches her scent and it’s putrid. bile catches in his throat. he seeks it out. still in denial to what he knows it means. #when he finds Laura it’s like the world ends all over again. he can’t stand to see her like this. he gives her a proper burial. #the best he can do at least #he visits Peter. he’s not the man Derek remembers- so full of fire and cunning. their relationship may have been strained at times. #often Derek felt more like Eve being swayed by the snake than a normal friendship #but this isn’t the sharp tongued uncle who guided him. this is a broken shell. all that remained of his family. he was so lost. #22 but he barely knew how to function without his family- his pack paving the way #Laura handled everything. she got the apartment. she made sure they had food. Derek looks back and feels so useless #he was so lost in his grief. Laura must of felt the same way but she never let them drown in it #she made sure he got his GED. even got him to enroll in community college classes. #he took them online. he never was able to warm up to people the same way. he used to be so full of life. now he just wanted to be left alone #he studied English. never finished his degree. doesn’t look like he ever will now. he can’t go back to Laura and his shared home. #can’t bare to see another shell of a home #he vents to the vacant audience of Peter and his cold fixed eyes #Derek leaves. he wants to promise he’ll return soon #but promises feel costly these days #he decides to go back to the reserve. maybe he can find some clue as to what happened to Laura #someone lured her here. someone who knew them and their history here #his mind went to the worst. Kate. why would she go through the trouble six years later. why wait so long. #Derek couldn’t stomach the thought of facing her. he focused on the woods. the scents were all over the place. #clearly multiple people had been through here recently. two scents were much stronger. Derek follows them #but when he hears the crunch of leaves he realizes why the scents are so strong. they’re still here #he ducks behind some trees. listening in on their conversation. but an echo of their scent catches his attention #he spots an inhaler on the ground. he puts two and two together and swipes it from the leaves. #he comes out once they’re closer. tossing over the inhaler- he figures they’ll leave. dumb kids messing around in the woods #he reminds them this is private property. though that may not be true anymore. he recognizes the scent of a new beta. interesting.

[faehrnem]

In a different timeline, where Faehrnem never comes to be as the Bold Tree follows in his older sister's footsteps by setting aside his own wants and dreams to instead begrudgingly take on his role as an avatar.

#my art #gw2 #commander faehrnem #pale tree #SURPRISE i'm finally talking about my characters lol #faehrnem would have been avatar for the second blighting tree (malyck's) but was brought over to the pale tree's side of the dream #while his mind was still forming so she could ensure he would defect as well and not embrace his true purpose as mordys champ #pale tree was to be mordys voice. lol #but uhh other stuff happened and the bold tree didn't want the same life as his sister and in a disagreement the siblings had #the bold tree is nearly wiped from the dream itself when pale tree accidentally uses magic that horrifically dmged him #so! in her grief the pale tree removes the avatar magic from her brother's. mind? soul? both maybe? idk the dream is weird #and later on after years of recovering and with no memory of what happened #faehrnem reawakens in the dream as a (to everyone's knowledge) regular sylvari so hecan live out his dreams of roaming the world #along side his friends and family (and then some) and just living a fulfilling life full of adventure and excitement #and brother. does faehrnem get it LOL this is what you signed up for buddy. now go kill those pesky dragons #anyways if you read all of these tags congrats! here's a gold star #this was a very shortened version of his backstory and there's. a lot of details i'm leaving out but maybe for another time #for now i hope you can enjoy these disaster siblings. lmao

[fantasykiri5]

Honestly I’m REALLY hoping Jimmy’s hunger games sim prediction for the life series is right again, as much as there are a load of player that it would be really cool to see win, if been hoping for a Joel win for AGES like since double life and especially last season so I REALLY hope it’s right again

#like PLEASE #let my boy WIN and let him get stuck in the LONELINESS OF IT like he was for the first two games and seems to to trying so hard to avoid- #-now that he got a taste of companionship with Etho is double life #he’s SO loyal to a fault he NEEDS to be fucking near someone or he immediately looses it!! Imagine if he’s the one left alone at the end!! #just like the very first game!! #ALSO he would fit earth imagery to go with the cosmic theme the winners have going on. just saying #Sun Stars Moon Mars and the Earth. like please #the green grass and the leaves on the trees. please #<- me thing him to trees more than normal because I HC him as a tree nymph lmao #anyways yeah. I just want him to win. I am so so biased #kiri rambles #joel smallishbeans #life series #secret life

whenever i read fics i always end up thinkin of a song for the fic or like, th chapter and then i canr stop associating the fic w/ those songs

#i listen to sm fckn music tht all the songs end up bein wildly diff too #ong i cld make playlists for multi ch fics #*stares at electric rebels* #actually u know what #i will #here r some songs: #our song by matchbox twenty is (early ch) electric rebels treemina coded #butterfly by bts (song is abt the fear of losing a person and in electric rebels this is very much true #everyone has the fear of not only losing their lives but losing their family(+found) as well #time is very much sacred n stuff like that) #humming by turnover (thr lyrics “with you ill make it out alive” sold me on this one) #viva la vida by coldplay specifically for the capital students because of how disillusioned theyve become due to the games #and forming relationships w/ their tribute #really good examples are vipsania and hilarius #rhythm of love by plain white t's makes me think of all the good moments treech n lamina have had despite their circumstances #(its also just a them song in general) #young volcanoes by fall out boy for the tributes!!! it seems light a more lighthearted victory song almost? #a “we will persevere” thing but more full of complete happiness #think abt the scene of teslee mizzen n treech running down the hill in jubilation (obvs before shit went down) #would that i by hozier just makes me think of when treech first met lamina up in the tree #which witch by florence + the machine is definitely for vipsania just before & after the bombing (aspen too but to a lesser degree almost) #“whos a heretic now” “im miles away hes on my mind” yeahhhh #love grows (where my rosemary goes) by edison lighthouse is jst a rlly good treemina song #rousseau by nerina pallot is a good fpr one of the main questions in the fic “are we really born free?” #(no. theyre not they have to work for that freedom. rousseaus main theory specifically the idea of it works really well for this fic #and the hunger games in general) #the promise by when in rome seems to work especially for treech and how he interacts with the others #he always seems to make promises - that theyll live - that he wont leave - that hell take care of the living for the deceased #this ended up sm longer than intended i reached the TAG LIMIT #basil.txt

[ID: 2 digital drawings of one of my OL2 MCs—Fatima. Fatima wears a sky blue headscarf and has a tan complexion. She has the same purpley eyes as Opal and she has a whiteish bandaid on her right cheek and her left middle finger and pinky finger. She is wearing a dark green hoodie and a sky blue shalwar kameez with yellow accents. A black cat with bright green eyes is next to her.

The two are seated atop a branch of a tree, surrounded by orange, yellow and red leaves.]

Halsin’s quote about “resentment will spring up regardless like mushrooms” (or something along those lines) lives in my head anytime something happens. It’s the first thing that comes to mind whenever I find myself resenting someone else or when someone is acting negatively about me.

And the quotes:

“No matter how long I live, I will always strive to remain a keen pupil. Only a hook would think he could drink in all knowledge until none is left”

“You sound like a student, reciting words for a test without considering their meaning.”

“Sometimes I think conventional wisdom is too narrow about what someone can or can’t be.”

“Natures tapestry is infinitely complex”

So on and so forth, I could create an entire list of quotes but that’s for another time. Like the writer of Halsin absolutely slaughtered, dare I say decimated. As a writer it’s so amazing to see just what people can write. It may be mundane, but the idea that someone wrote that, spent time writing that, is amazing. I don’t see glory in the mundane, because what you call mundane is glorious, and isn’t that what we call poetry? (okay so yeah I took that out a poem I wrote while sick and added more words to chunk it up, but my post my rules I can ramble all I want).

And the voice actor? Absolutely pulls it all together. The delivery of the lines absolutely amazing and I think that’s part of why they stick with me so much. The way someone talks can be a make or break of whether or not you actually pay attention and take weight as to what they’re saying. I think everyone has had that one really boring history teacher who all you remember is how boring they were and the way they spoke, so kinda like that. You probably get the concepts, but nothing else. But when someone talks good you pay more attention and are more likely to y’know take weight to what they say. The way the voice actor did Halsin is just so top tier.

#this was way longer than I planned. anyways time to go off again in the tags #on another note I feel so much kinship towards that man #my trans ass doesn’t want to be an anime twink. I want to be Halsin #the guy of all time to me #daddy Halsin #<- that’s the Halsin tag on this blog btw idk why I chose that but I did #bg3 #baulder’s gate 3 #the note that he wood whittles sent me over the moon. like me and the cool wise Druid have simmiliar interests?????? YESSSS #which like isn’t too surprising because I always get voted ranger ir druid in my friend groups #sorry I see the beauty and glory in trees and the ever beloved sanctity of life #not sorry for rambling though. my post on my blog I get to go off in the tags #my dog just did a weird sneeze cough on my leg and his mouth flipped out #bird dogs are good dogs on their own. but a bird dog mixed with a collie? he’s the best #my only complaint about him is the moment you leave where ever you’re sleeping or sitting he’ll take that spot #he doesn’t want A pillow he wants YOUR pillow #I am going to stop now

current progress of my first attempt at a large survival minecraft build (SevTech Ages modpack singleplayer)

#not jojo related #random #i'm very excited that i'm getting to the top part of the trunk and branches now #it took me about a week to get 32 crates of leaves (rougly 55296 leaf blocks) in preparation for the leaf top #i don't even know how much wood this is i just kinda got wood blocks as i went along #the base to the top of the trunk is 92 blocks high. and minus the thicker base and top it is 33 blocks wide #i am usually not much of a builder when it comes to minecraft #this is my third playthrough of SevTech Ages and my bases always look very bad. so this time i went ''what if i actually tried this time'' #i have plans to terraform around the tree cause a tree in the middle of a plains biome probably looks weird #but plains are easiest to build in lol #also if you know anything about SevTech yes i am in age 1 rn (i want the rooftop ready for age 2 astral sorcery setup) #i have plans for where i'm gonna put my age 3/4 tech but it hasn't really been built much yet
