#without her helmet on

[the-yearning-astronaut]

I was made entirely tongue tied today at work when a very pretty and spot on Bo-Katan lookalike cosplayer told me I'm pretty.

"You're very pretty. I just thought you should know."

#may the fourth #bo katan kryze #cosplay #sw cosplay #star wars #fox thoughts #seriously i completely stumbled over my words and didn't even think to ask to get a photo of her #without her helmet on #because i was too busy processing that SHE was pretty and that SHE called ME pretty #fml lmao #i can seriously count on one hand the number of people that have called me pretty that were NOT close friends and family #I'm gonna have to make a sticky note to put on my mirror that reads #Remember Bo Katan thinks you're pretty #for those very bad days when i feel like shit and my self confidence is literally 6ft under #'youre very pretty. just thought you should know' #im gonna heckin cry ngl #you're very pretty too bo katan cosplayer... i wish i hadn't swallowed my tongue and that i had been able to say as much

family portrait :D young sam and sybil are behaving themselves and vimes is throwing a hissy fit because they tried to make him wear the helmet

[id: a digital painting of three people sitting for a portrait in a domestic interior. young sam is standing with his hands behind his back and beaming proudly. vimes is standing behind him with his hand on his shoulder, wearing a shiny military uniform and a surly expression. sybil is sitting on the right with an arm around young sam, smiling at the viewer. a plumed helmet is sitting on a table on the left. end id.]

#discworld #sam vimes #sybil ramkin #young sam vimes #artwork #discworld is inspiring me so much at the moment ive got it on the brain #vimes wore the helmet for 3 seconds and then took it off and refused to comb his helmet hair which is why he looks like that #also idk where the idea of sybil wearing wigs came from (i havent read all the books yet so i am not sure if it’s canon or headcanon) but i #am so besotted with that idea so assume sybil is bewigged any time i draw her #thats why she has no grey hairs here. i imagine her having very short wispy hair underneath #i literally love her so much ive been thinking about her for days she means the world 2 me #this is the first time ive drawn either her or young sam and im so happy with how they came out thats exactly how i picture them in my head #ive drawn vimes once before but i can usually get him close to my Brain Picture without too much difficulty #i just think Grumpy Bastard (affectionate) and there he is #also happy end of the year my friends! may 2024 bring you all the things you desire i love you

Aerois did not have enough Spellclash and Sky jousting, so I need Altheya to make up for that with lots of knights and tournaments. Therefore I present to you Altheya knight AU!

#high rollers #rollonsunday #altheya #altheyatde #daisy thistleheart #ophelia d'larosa #In the knight AU everyone is a knight and is doing knight stuff #like tournaments and all that #Little Daisy might not seem like a formidable opponent because she’s young and doesn’t look very strong #but her fighting style is that of a much more experienced fighter #Almost like she isn’t herself when she’s fighting #Ophelia is sort of the dark mystery knight from a far away land #and there are so many stories about her that couldn’t possibly be true #or could they?? surely not right #She is rarely ever seen without her helmet in public so her identity is a mystery to most as well #which doesn’t help with the rumours either #So so so obsessed with this new AU you can’t even believe how bad it is😭 #I’m sorry Gruff I know being a knight is your thing but you’re the last one on my list to draw for this I’m so so sorry

antwerp real

#looney tunes #marvin the martian #art attag #you know sometimes I wonder like #if people who follow this blog but not my main blog have any idea what to expect here anymore #anyway I loveee little titbits and trivia about long-running characters and how they developed over the years #especially when there are noticeable differences between early instalments and their later more well-known versions #e.g. m.oominmamma didn't get her apron until the newspaper comics! #so learning that marvin's original internal name was antwerp is cool!! #which is such a fun name in itself!! bc not only is that said to derive from the myth of roman solider #it can also be read as a portmanteau of ant and twerp! marvin's cute for the alliteration and satisfying similarity to martian #but man that's a good bunch of wordplay #I also love consuming any sort of supplementary/promotional/concept material of things and finding out mel blanc once recorded a song #called ''antwerp is my name'' for like a stage show or something which is Likely lost media by now is #Such a shame #bc that was probably the only time it was officially used outside of chuck jones' personal notes before his current name was chosen #lost media my beloathed :( #not searching for it that's fascinating but just that it like. occurs at all #anyway hi I didn't post any art for over month thank you for reading my infodumping here #oh & also I know he's been shown without the helmet & he really is just a little bowling ball. but I want to believe

Bing ba da boom you're getting an ask (lol). For the trait fanon swap maybe voidwalker!False?

I’m going to be honest, I don’t know what a voidwalker is. X was assigned the most vague species ever. So I went for an End-ish themed look :)

#another idea I had for it that I didn’t end up doing #was her goggles #like how X’s helmet is voidwalker related #w breathing air or whatever #I was going to make it that she couldn’t see well without the special goggles #so take that how you will #hermitcraft #Hermitcraft fanart #fanon swap game #ask game #falsesymmetry #Crab Doodles #thanks for the ask!!!

more people said 1st option but then i got attached to this one and reminds me more of the scarlet rot but who knows i might switch between the two every so often lol

do yall ever think about how weird wash's fight scene in s12 is? specifically, that moment where he does that sideways flip while shooting (I believe) at felix? like wash is an enjoyer of combat rolls, my man is always rolling, but that one flip is a flashy, and dare I say, unnecessary move for wash to use.

I also find it interesting that they had him use his sidearm instead of his battle rifle, since in previous cqc situations wash has always used blades or blade like objects such as the epsilon unit. the only times I recall him using a magnum off the top of my head is when he shot south in s6, when he shot donut in s8, and when he threatened carolina in s10. if wash busting out his magnum, it's always symbolic of him letting some part of his personal feelings guide his actions, because shooting someone with a sidearm meant for close range is more intimate than using his primary mid/long range weapon.

this was obviously not the case in the s12 fight, and they probably did it just because it looked cool, but idk that's my random wash thought of the day.

#rvb #red vs blue #agent washington #mine #not t/oaru #look we all know that the chorus trilogy combat doesn't compare to monty's but idk i feel like they just didn't /get/ wash's fighting style #wash is pretty nimble and quick on his feet #he's not as graceful or as aggressive(?) as lina but he's definitely the kind of guy who doesn't just stand around and let himself get hit #words are not working atm so idk how to describe it but he's like not an exact equivalent but he acts as lina's counterpart among the dudes #like he's not staying in one place he's not muscle-ing his way through a fight he's dodging weaving dancing around his opponents #if he needs to get close he gets close if he needs to back off he backs off #carolina is short bursts of high intensity combat meant to overwhelm her opponents #wash is more focused on endurance and steadily picking away at his opponents over a longer period of time #but they both share that sort of “it's not bad if you don't let it hit you” mentality if that makes sense #also related to this post. why did he cut his hand and throw his blood on locus in the s13 fight. wash literally fought the meta who used #the same cloaking tech without needing to do anything like that bc he paid attention to his surroundings #or when he needed to take off his helmet to find locus via the trail from his gun #like yeah its cool but. idk it doesn't /feel/ like stuff wash would necessarily do you know? #idk I'm chalking it up to miles going like “my characters need to be so much better and so much cooler than these characters.” or smthn

As for my post this morning. If anyone was worried. Me personally I'm okay (I guess) but my dad's in the hospital and things r still very up in the air. So.

#speculation nation #bracing myself for the possibility of Major Grief.....2!!!! #well actualy more like 3 or 4 or 5 (lol lol lol) #but likely the worst one bc it's. my dad. that's my dad. #i left work early to visit him at the hospital. hes stable rn at least (he wasnt this morning) #he wasnt conscious though. and i really really hope he ends up okay #but. i still saw my dad unconscious in a hospital bed hooked up to like a million tubes and #thats my dad. Thats my Dad. #im really trying to not do my processing until after i know for sure how things are gonna go #dont wanna start grieving until after he's officially gone #so im trying not to think about it. but it's still... yeah. unpleasant. #and theres a part of me thats so so resentful. if i have to have a dead parent why would it be the Good one? #take my fucking mom instead. hell my life would even be BETTER without her. horrible as that is to say. #but it's my dad. he's not perfect. he has his flaws. but he's still tried in a way she never ever did. #seeing him like that makes me feel so... small. makes me remember being picked up by him. #makes me remember riding on the back of his harley as a tiny little 10 year old with a helmet that was giant on me #we'll hope for the best. we'll hope for a recovery. even if not a full recovery. i just want to have my dad. #sorry. this is probably too real for my tumblr dot com. it's just been... a lot today. #negative/ #death/ #hospitals ment/ #idfk. sorry

I have my issues with bringing animated characters into live action and how the live action version is considered “better” but I love how Bo-Katan’s armour translated across mediums

#bo-katan’s helmet is my favourite in all of star wars. it’s so cute she’s an owl! #trying again with mando season 3 it’s still not really my thing #i’m not invested in din or grogu at all which is probably a big part of it. maybe i’ll like the next season #katee is really trying her best with a mediocre script..some of her lines are so good and have so much energy and then others sound #like she’s just reading lines without understanding them but tbh i don’t know how anyone can deliver some of that dialogue naturally

[lingeringscars]

I'm having a lot of feelings about 1x11 as is to be expected. Bellamy saying what he wants to say and then saying but I'm not the guy who says stuff like that to keep up his selfish asshole image despite clearly Caring So Much the entire episode. Immediately asking raven if it helped, knowing it didn't but hoping it did anyway. How clarke says only people who can be spared should go hunt, but when clarke, finn, and myles don't come back, it's raven, Octavia, Bellamy, and monty who go search for them, all arguably essential personnel.

And then when they find myles, Bellamy does exactly what he would have done if he had been there when they were attacked. He says they need to get myles, who is extremely injured, back to camp. He immediately says he's sorry to raven when he finds out that clarke and Finn were taken, because he assumes that means they're dead or worse, but he can focus on and save this one person, myles, who is in direct danger and in need of help.

#it's such a good br/aven ep obviously but its also such a good ep that showcases who bellamy really is at his core #because these things persist! #it goes on my list of bellamy always had the ability to use his head im tired of this dichotomy list #bc instead of bringing others and risking them after dark (esp after roma died going after o) he makes the logical call #and he won't leave myles behind #and you see moving forward how often he protects or chooses to protect someone who is in direct danger even at the expense of those who will #be later / eventually #murphy goes for echos suit because emori is gonna die without the helmet #and bellamy stops him because taking off echos suit dooms her and shes in direct danger of being killed #even tho emori is also dying #anyway im back hi his biggest defender and examiner always ❤️ #muse: bellamy blake #meta: bellamy blake

She swallowed at the mention of the nickname, a name she’d not heard her sister call her since they were younger, immature. Then again, the Hippolyta who stood before her appeared younger than when the Amazon Queen had last seen her sister, that last battle together before Penthesilea would take twelve of her best with her to Troy. To aid the Trojans but also for Penthesilea’s own atonement.

“I haven’t been called ‘Penny’ in so long...” Her voice had a metalic rasp thanks to the helmet. “I remember I used to call you ‘Lyta’, or ‘Poly’... I’d even call you Hippo some times just to make you angry.”

She was trying to distract herself, thinking back to the battle, the Amazons banding together to battle Theseus and Heracles after their sister had been stolen from them. In the confusion of the battle, Hippolyta had been slain. In her battlefield craze, it had been unclear just WHO had dealt Hippolyta the killing blow. Had it been Theseus? Heracles? Or by Penthesilea’s own spear by accident. I had been easy to blame Theseus and Heracles... but part of Penth had worried her sister had been slain by her own hand. An unsettling thought, it weighed heavily on her.

“We... we fought well, but I was defeated and shamed...”
