Wicked Willow (Kirby's Epic Yarn)
For once, it's a tree that isn't part of the Whispy Woods family, but instead a distant cousin of sorts.

Vaughn's Top 10 one-handed video games (updated)
@vaughnHellspawn shares his updated favorite one-handed games! #GamingAccessibility #OneHandedGaming
Now that I’ve been exploring video games even more as a disabled gamer, I’ve found even more games that can be played using just 1 hand. For those of you who don’t know, I currently only have functional use of one of my hands, so I had to change how I played video games. One way that I changed was changing how I select the games I play. PC games must allow for keybind changes or have a mouse only…

The High King of Flowers
AO3 LINK
MASTERLIST
Fandom: The Folk of the Air
Ship: Jurdan
Word count: 1.1k
~~~~~
They were sitting in the throne room, Cardan looking as bored as ever as two little faeries droned on and on, complaining endlessly about their measly little problems. He absolutely loathed this part of being High King; always having to pretend to care about even the smallest of quarrels in Elfhame and judge them accordingly, lest his subjects would turn away from him for not acting as a “proper and prosperous High King” would and should. Cardan hated it. He like the gifts, the praises, and the long revels with wine and dancing that went on and on until the early mystical hours of the day. Though, in some twisted way, he enjoyed all the attention and importance he was finally being rightfully given as faeries come to him with all of their troubles and worries.
“Well, perhaps it was his fault, this time. As such, Diaspor, you shall give Torren your first berry harvest every month for the next fifteen years, and in return, Torren, you shall teach him how to weave his dried bark strips into the finest of enchanted baskets,” Cardan mused, glancing over at Jude, waiting for her usual approving nod at his conclusions. Jude stared absentmindedly into space, her fingers vacuously stroking the colorful petals of the flowers and the many plants decorating and encasing their thrones. He quickly noticed her dazed state, her gaze fixed on an unfocused spot in the room.
His eyes snapped to the faeries and guards in the throne room as he dismissed them. “Leave us be.”
At his immediate words, they all filed out of the large ornate room, though not without sparing a few curious and inquisitive glances behind them. Cardan reached out his hand, each finger carefully and glamorously embellished with daintier, shiny rings. He lightly grazed his knuckles over the soft round curve of her ear, meticulously admiring the glittering golden ornaments decorating it, the same color as the shimmery swipe of glitter that he always wore on his well-defined cheekbones.
“Jude, my lovely, what are you thinking about this time?” he probe, not exactly used to his High Queen being so utterly… absent. At the sound of his silken voice, her face tilted upwards, her calculating eyes rising to meet Cardan’s adoring ones.
“I was thinking about Vivi, she murmured, “she snagged a date with Heather for tonight. I hope everything goes okay with them this time.” Jude wasn’t the type to worry, yet her voice sounded uncharacteristically strained. She truly cared about her sister, and hoped that Vivi could rekindle her relationship with Heather. Heather, whom both Vivi and Oak dearly missed.
His fingers moved downward, tracing and weaving through the silky brown locks resting on her nape. “And no date for us tonight as well, hmm?” he teased, a playful smirk tugging at the corner of his perfect plush lips.
“You know, these flowers really are beautiful,” she remarked, her attention once again turning to the lovely decorations around their thrones.” Cardan raised an eyebrow. “You think?” It was unlike Jude to pay such attention top details as small and insignificant as decorations.
“Sometimes it’s hard to believe that someone like you could conjure up such delicate and colorful flowers,” she shot back.
Cardan gasped dramatically, his hands immediately leaving Jude’s smooth cheeks to clutch theatrically at his chest as though she’d shot a glamoured arrow right through it.
“How dare you! I am very much delicate; my skin is as soft as the finest of moth’s dew-bathed silk, and my palms are free of the scars and scratches of a forceful warrior,” he retorted, quick to defend his honor. It was all true, and it was difficult to imagine a faerie more delicate than Cardan. Cardan, who wore eyeliner and kohl to enhance his mischievous eyes. Cardan, who carefully brushed shimmering stardust on his cheekbones. Cardan, who wears the most lavish and unnecessarily intricate doublets and royal clothing. And finally, Cardan, who had recently developed a new liking to lightly staining his lips with the ripest and best of autumn faerie gooseberries. It left a faint sour taste on Jude’s tongue every time she kissed him.
To prove his point even further, he sprang up from his seat, carefully clutching Jude’s wrist and dragging her behind him. Cardan led her straight out of the throne room and into the royal gardens, making sure that all of the faeries who worked to maintain it where gone. Unlike his brother, Balekin, Cardan had never, ever, glamoured defenseless humans into working for him at the palace. Hell, he’d even brought forth a law that forbade it. Yet he still wasn’t willing to admit that on that night, many moon cycles ago, he’d truly cared about that human and saved her from Balekin.
And so, the High King of Elfhame sat his queen down amidst the prosperous rows of blooming flowers, standing proudly before her. Cardan kneeled besides Jude, under the large willow that hid both of them, tucking them into their own little world.
“Jude,” Cardan breathed. His eyes were locked on her, drunkenly inhaling on the image of she who haunted his mind all the time, be it in his thoughts during even the most important of meetings or at night, dancing with his heart cradled in her hands in his dreams. She was his anti-medusa, the ferocious beast of a warrior who had shattered his heart of stone, filling it with the pulsating life of her ambition. The mortal girl who so obstinately wore her hair up in little horns. It was such pure, primitive sense of life that no faerie could have or understand, no matter their eternal lifespan. It was iron that faeries, who could live forever with their magic and enchantments, never truly lived, not in the way that humans do. Not like Jude.
Cardan removed Jude’s crown off of her head and set it safely on her lap, yet it was immediately devoured by the many sparkling layers of red fabric. Red, just like the color of the roses he was weaving into each other by the stems like a flower crown, making sure no thorns remained. He intertwined the flower circlet through her royal crown, then placed it atop her head once more, admiring the way it matched her dress and the faint blush on her cheeks she believed so soundly that she was able to hide. “Wear these. Just like my love for you, the flowers shall never wither or fade.”
“My darling High Queen,” he murmured, utterly drunk on her very presence eternally by his side, his lips brushing against hers, “my Jude.”

Of course, the Queen's family was invited to the baptism. Robert was excited to see his future wife - not surprised to find her hiding from the mingling. It's not that she's shy, it's just that she dreads talking about boring things like the rest of the ladies.
"My lady?" He called to her, joining her in the corner by the church doors. As safely away from prying eyes as you could get during a large event like this.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
"Oh. Your Highness." Elizabeth said with a smile. In letters, they have taken to calling each other simply Elizabeth and Robert, but that certainly wasn't proper.
He was a prince and she was a lady.
"What did you think of the baptism?" He asked, as casually as possible. She made him nervous. He didn't know why - they were to be wed....
"It was a beautiful ceremony."
Tumblr media Tumblr media
"Oh? You believe so? I am glad." He stepped forward, a smile on his face.
"Yes. Of course, I would much prefer you and I to be walking through the forest... But the baby does not deserve for his aunt and uncle to ignore him on his special day."
"Oh, aunt and uncle, is it?"
"Yes. We are to be wed, are we not?"
Tumblr media Tumblr media
In the heat of the moment, Robert found himself pinning his betrothed against the wall. Their lips were so close.....
He could kiss her. He should kiss her ---
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Little did they know that while they were getting closer to each other, Robert's mother was walking by. It was not smart of them to be so handsy in public, at a church, while they were unmarried.
Tumblr media
"What in the Watcher's name are you doing?!" She hissed, just as their lips were about to touch.
Both of them jumped, pulling away from each other. Robert started stammering in an attempt to explain and Elizabeth quickly curtsied, her face a bright red from embarrassment.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
"I do not want to hear it, Robert!" She snapped. "I understand that you two are to be wed. I also understand that you two have been waiting for a long time for us all to be prepared for your wedding. However, to do this? At the Watcher's house? At John's Christening?!"
Her voice was not loud, of course she didn't want to draw more attention, but full of venom and anger. She taught her children the importance of pleasing the Watcher and here he is, thinking with... the wrong part of him.
"Both of you had best walk right inside of that church, confess, and then ask what you can do to do penance! Now!"

Now that I'm thinking about it, I feel that the Buffy/Angel tie-in books were trying to hint that Buffy subconsciously remembered the events of "I Will Remember You," or at least parts of it.
Because in "The Unseen Trilogy," there's this part where Angel wakes up, crying in pain in having dreamed about The Forgotten Day... and miles away, it's like Buffy heard this cry and then almost grasps onto something of it in her head, before losing it and going back to sleep herself.
And in "The Wicked Willow" series (that's kind of an AU about what if it had taken longer to take Dark Willow down, or been a harder thing to fight her in general), Willow has built up, like, her evil villain base in this one location of Sunnydale that I don't think we ever saw on the show or anything like that. But Buffy thinks that she can imagine why Willow might have picked the place, because the sunset's really pretty there and Willow could probably imagine walking hand-in-hand with Tara on the beach around there. And then Buffy imagines herself doing the same with Angel... which she then realizes is a ridiculous thought, because the sun would destroy him the moment it touched him. But this was probably her remembering "IWRY" and not knowing it, of course.

i know the Willow Mellow lore gets worse the longer you dig inside of it + it reflects even Worse on the writers when you put the actual words on her situation but let's not forget Darlings she is a child. she is 15 to 17yo depending on what piece of documentation we refer to, too young to consent to sex and therefore does not fit the category of "sex worker", and instead falls under the definitions of "sexually exploited youth", more specifically "sexually exploited child", as UNICEF, UNESCO, Convention for the Rights of the Child, [...] and general common sense all define "child" as "person under the age of 18".
she is the victim of kidnapping by her """adoptive father""" and of sexual exploitation by her (presumably adult) "clients" (as she does not appear to have a pimp, and is instead written saying she loves what she does and such giddy teehee fun. [powerful side-eye through someone in the writing team.] [she's not a Real Person I have to stress, so someone wrote her like this, wrote this kid like this.] [it is all part of a narrative in which she is struggling to shake off her "father's" exploitation, an inherently tragic one, but she still was written that way, and could have been written any other way, with any other "rebellious" act]). calling her a sex worker as a child who is basically the same age as P2 Capella or Grace is putting her in a Grown-Up category especially harmful considering we are supposed to read her as an indigenous girl, member of the Kin (even if her lore is Mysterious and Hazy) and indigenous women and girls are sexualized in racialized ways which often paint them as more ~~~naturally~~~ sexually liberated, or docile, or submissive, or [insert racist x sexist stereotype promoted by colonizers to excuse the mistreatment of indigenous women and girls].
tldr yes it's worse when you actually call her what she actually is, and worse tenfold when you read what the writers make her say about it [even as an inherently tragic situation that we can recognize and put words on (hence this post), she could have been written any other way, with any other rebellious act, but you know.] but you know x2 (SIDE-EYES SOMEONE ON THE WRITING TEAM VERY HARD TIL ME EYES POP OUT ME SKULL)
#/!\ POST ABOUT SEMANTICS. POST ABOUT SEMANTICS ALERT. /!\#this is not pointed or written with wicked intents btw ^ i've seen it a few times from different people and it's just that if we want to be#able to talk about these things within the narrative and how the depictions of the Kin impact the around-game/critique this game in general#game (esp. p1 which is very much about. words and wording and navigating webs of words among so many other things)#we have to be able to name these things. especially in relation to. d*bowski do you mind coming to the mic and telling us#what was behind your head. no pressure sir#protecting this kid from the writing with my entire body like that one soldier meme#ooh d*bowski you are not making it out alive i'll tell you that much.#in the same way you wouldn't call mcdonalds hiring 14yo ''employment'' you'd call it. exploitative child labor.#but it's even worse because <3 aw the misogyny oozing through the pores of a lot of the patho narrative#because of maybe perhaps allegedly the head writer. allegedly!#how the fuck am i supposed to tag any of this#csa /#willow mellow#willow pathologic#pathologic#it'd be Less Worse if she was an adult bc at least she could consent [in a vacuum; if we ignore the fact that she's a kidnapping victim;#if we ignore the fact that the Kin who she merges with sees its women be sexualized and its ways of life crushed by the colonizers#and assimilated in ways they might not like; etc] but yknow. detailed herb brides bodies and whatnot.

King's Tide Spoilers below⬇
The Collector is now my favorite, he finally did what I've been asking for since Hollow Mind, he made Belos feel a lot of pain.
Belos went splat!
I've watched Belos go splat so many times, it feels so good!
On the topic of Belos, he 1000000% said Caleb and you will not convince me otherwise.
I love the Collector's design, they are cute and terrifying so you know, every child ever. I love his little hat and want one. Kid just looks comfy.
The Palisman noticing everyone is hangry was so cute and the Palisman cuddle was adorable!
Kikimora redemption happened I think.
Fuck Belos and his goopy remains!
Holy fuck that's a lot more Golden Guards than I thought there'd be, Belos killed his brother so many times! I'm glad Hunter didn't see it, the boy's dealing with enough.
The Collector was so happy to see King, it was really kinda cute. I love how everyone is scared of the Collector, especially after what he did to Belos.
Hunter's little squeak was really funny and also sad cause he has more problems to deal with now.
Gus got the Luz and Hunter treatment, I guarantee he saw all that shit and is now fucked up.
The episode gave more Hunter Gus brother content! That's good.
Seeing Hunter so worried for Darius hurt.
I wish we got to know more about Darius and Eberwolf's relationship, cause if Eberwolf died there wouldn't have been enough time to get their replacement but Darius really cares about his gremlin friend.
I hope that Eberwolf, Raine and Darius are okay, the rest of the coven heads can die, I'd be fine with that.
I wonder what game King will come up with to keep the Collector entertained.
King's sacrifice for Luz and him calling her hos big sister broke me, and Luz opening the door trying to get back was so sad.
All those kids are seperated from their families and they have no idea what has happened to them. Amity and Hunter probably think their dads are dead.
I saw that little Anne cameo, it was funny.
The Belos goop closing the door scared the shit out of me. So I guess he isn't fully deas.
Bad because Belos kinda lives, good cause I get to see him die again! Yay!
I hope all the Palisman are with the kids, they all need their emotional support pets.
I'm excited for season 3 to come out in... a year at most maybe?
I'm still gonna do owl house stuff and also get back to more Star Wars stuff cause that new show has a baby Ahsoka and nothing will stop me from drawing a bunch of baby Sokas! I'll probably be finishing up some of my wips for my Kaesoka child AU, and other Star Wars wips and some stuff for June!
Alright have a nice day everyone!
VJS out!

I’m seeing Wicked in the theater.
How?
HOW DID I NOT THINK OF THE MOST OBVIOUS SKARLOW BROADWAY AU EVER?!?!?
GALINDA PLAYED BY TIMESKIP SKARA
ELPHEBA PLAYED BY (GREEN) TIMESKIP WILLOW!
THE WIZARD PLAYED BY BELOS!
FIYERO… not existing in this version, and just making it pure Skarlow.
IT’S PERFECT!

DOESN'T IT SOUND FUN !!! aww, i feel like he gets so excited 🥺 and he's probably so personable akhfakh you can hear the smile in his voice when he's like, "i want you to take a guess how many people john wick kills in the first movie ??" and i'm like, "uhh idk !! maybe...80 ??" and he says, "no, but you're super close ! :) it's 77 :)" AND YOU CAN JUST HEAR HIM SMILING 🥺 and he probably has lil movie facts like, "did you know that crouching tiger, hidden dragon is the only martial arts film to be nominated for an academy award ??" and i am shocked !! like "no way ! ? :O" and he is equally as shocked !! like "yes way ! i couldn't believe it either !!!"
