ā€œYou donā€™t need another human being to make your life complete, but letā€™s be honest. Having you wounds kissed by someone who doesnā€™t see them as disasters in your soul but cracks to put their love into is the most calming thing in this world.ā€
ā€” Emery Allen

Do you think after a particularly intense battle, someone fighting with their Thuā€™um would lose their voice? Like, the Last Dragonborn would be all hoarse and croaky for a week after fighting Miraak

Dragonborn eclipse headcannons
In honor of the solar eclipse that happened weeks ago
"on the darkest night, the reflection of akatosh taints the moon with the reflection of his blood to bare witness upon the scorned birth of the dragon blood, children born to die."
Dragonborn are born under a bloodmoon, the reflection of akatosh tainting the moon red as he witnesses the birth of the scorned. Hense why it's called a bloodmoon, the blood of the dragon being born to die.
Dragons are severally weakened during total solar eclipses, they're connected to the sun who symbolizes akatosh and during full totality - their connection to akatosh is severed.
Hense why dragons and dragonborn usually get more aggressive and restless during eclipses because they are incredibly vulnerable.
Miraak of course is not an exception to this, he is the origin of this myth. The information and records of his existence are simply lost to both history and Herma's need to hoard knowledge.
This goes well with my headcannon that dragonborn are not celebrated but feared-hated. They're seen as bad omens, the harbingers of the end.
Thus, those who are usually born under eclipses at times are seen as cursed- some are either killed or abandoned out of fear.

Itā€™s not an Enola Holmes movie unless Henry Cavill attractively lounges in a (politely) slutty way.

She's not afraid. There is no fear in this place; death seems like a very far away dream, the nightmare of organic life form, and while Shepard is many things now, that sort of ephemeral spark is not one of them. Like two opposing comets in the night, they race toward each other, and at the point of their meeting, there's an explosion of light and color and flaring particles Shepard has no name for. From Astronomy in Reverse by Calypsid on Ao3
I painted this for Calypsid and her amazing, poetic Mass Effect fic Astronomy in Reverse. Watercolour, white acrylic, white posca maker on paper; 21x29.7 cm

unavoidable that you will be the villain in someone else's story. You will be painted in an unfavorable light. You will be the irredeemable one. and all of this will happen despite how nice you might usually be or how kind or how respectful or how warm. and you will just have to move on.

Height gap romance except the shorter one is frequently depicted in situations where they are contextually taller. The taller one sitting while the shorter one looms over them. Both of them lying in bed with the taller oneā€™s head pressed to the shorter oneā€™s chest. The shorter one straddling the taller oneā€™s lap and leaning down for a kiss. The taller one on their knees as the shorter one tilts their head up. Please, it makes me go feral

Dahlia enjoys a moment of peace
If youā€™ve been following me for any decent stretch of time, youā€™ll know that originally what I started doing here is just writing. It makes me happy, keeps my heart full, and I am stricken with the brain rot, so I do what it tells me. However, I have been sharing my art (mostly hand lettering and plants) as well. I never really (and still do not) consider myself to be an artist, and I have never been able to draw people other than stick figures.
I have been practicing for months and months, and mostly if you see people art that I post here, the outlines and clothing details are traced.
Perhaps this doesnā€™t seem like much and could definitely be improved, but I did this all by myself (no reference or tracing at all), and I am very proud of myself.
