More Emily Windsnap goodness. This time fanart of someone else’s fanart! @artistic-moth-man ‘s Jake and genderbent Mary P. a.k.a. “Marty”. It’s rare to find someone so both fanart and fanfiction for this series. The series has strong LGBTQ+ allegories, so I like their idea depicting Mary & Jake as a same-sex couple.

My favorite song in the Underworld Saga.

This would’ve been a perfect song for Bruno to sing in Encanto.

Reblogging bc why not

Thinking back to Emily Windsnap Book 4. Mary P’s sailor/fisherman dad was probably delighted to have a merman for a son-in-law. No wonder he was super accepting 😆

Genderbent Mary Penelope aka Martin Penn Windsnap! Belongs to @artistic-moth-man (the second image is by them). From their upcoming fanfic/rewrite. It’s rare to meet someone doing both fanart and fanfiction for Emily Windsnap . And a very pleasant surprise!

What if Emily Windsnap was born prematurely? Would explain how she’s so short and thin for her age, and reinforces how her birth was unplanned. And it could be another reason her mom was so overprotective of her growing up.

Getting my creative groove back 😁. It’s been so long since I made a fan video.

In light of Autism Awareness/Acceptance Month.

This mashup has been on my mind for a while. Sia’s “Music”(2021) is an ableist dumpster fire. We should learn from it how to make better movies about disability .

Getting revved up for Mermay! My favorite interspecies couple at their favorite meeting spot

[Image description. a woman sitting cross-legged in a merman's lap. he holds a rainbow necklace in one hand while embracing the woman in his arms as she lovingly caresses his face. they sit on Rainbow Rocks surrounded by crashing waves. The rocks have the initials J and MP and a heart carved onto them. End description.]

Headcanon Mr. Beeston is a huge coffee drinker. Gotta have that coffee with his magic donuts and for his late night lighthouse shifts.

Wonder what he thinks then of Starbucks and their mermaid logo

Unpopular Opinion: Wish (2023) will be become a beloved cult classic in 20+ years .

Just like the early 2000s Disney films. And the Star Wars prequel trilogy. And The Wizard of Oz. And any box office flop people loved as kids.

Should I pick a fandom?

Okay, I'll pick... Disney's The Hunchback of Notre Dame.

I think Quasimodo and Esmeralda are mutually better as friends then as a couple, and I think the fandom is too hard on Quasi for his supposedly "toxic" feelings for Esmeralda. Yes, it's true that he doesn't relate to her as an equal the way Phoebus does, he idolizes her as an angel and sees her as better than himself. But Esmeralda doesn't relate to Quasi as an equal either: she pities him too much. When she rescues him at the Festival of Fools, she calls him "this poor creature" (dehumanizing) and "that poor boy" (infantilizing). Why are the fans so quick to cry "toxic objectifying" when he innocently calls her an "angel," yet don't seem to care that she calls him a "creature"? Just like she needs a partner like Phoebus who loves her as an equal, neither a "Madonna" nor a "whore," Quasi needs a future partner who loves him as an equal too, neither a "monster" nor a "poor boy." Esmeralda is more of a nurturing, protective older sister figure to him, which isn't a good basis for romance on either side.

(🔥 for the unpopular opinion ask)

Wuthering Heights:

I find Heathcliff's treatment of Linton more appalling than his treatment of Isabella. Other readers often seem to view his abuse of Isabella as his darkest hour and not care as much about Linton because they don't like Linton. But to me, while of course what Isabella goes through is horrible, there's something more uniquely horrible about Heathcliff abusing his own mortally ill teenage son. It doesn't matter that Linton is an unpleasant person: he's still a dying teenager and he's still Heathcliff's own child. This more than anything else is why Heathcliff "stands unredeemed" to me.

Blue #EarthDay cake pop. I felt like Percy Jackson eating this 😆. [Image description. Chocolate cake pop covered in blue icing and covered in blue sprinkles to resemble the planet Earth. End description.]

At the risk of sounding like a snob…I’m glad my country is giving families more choices/resources to avoid public school. Especially for disabled kids.

*TW Animal Death Mention*

If the Kraken is Neptune’s pet …then it makes Book 2’s ending really sad. When Neptune has to help kill the Kraken to stop a shipwreck .

Very reminiscent of when people have to euthanize their dogs for violently attacking someone.

It’s hard to tell if the Kraken was literally Neptunes pet. On one hand he did take good care of it , providing shelter and food. On the other hand he shows 0 emotional attachment to the Kraken. Unlike with the Narwhal.

Work in progress on more Emily Windsnap fanart.
