I've been thinking about the tragedy of Elizabeth Woodville living to see the end of her family name.
I don't mean her family with her husband, which lived on through her daughter and grandson. I mean her own.
Her sisters died, one by one, many of them after 1485. When Elizabeth died, only Katherine was left, and she would die before the turn of the century as well.
All her brothers died, too. Lewis died in childhood. John was executed. Anthony was murdered. Lionel died suddenly in the peak of Richard's reign, unable to see his niece become queen. Edward perished at war. Richard died in grieving peace. For all the violence and judgement the family endured, it was "an accident of biology" that ended their line: none of the brothers left heirs, and the Woodville name was extinguished. We know the family was aware of this. We know they mourned it, too:
“Buy a bell to be a tenor at Grafton to the bells now there, for a remembrance of the last of my blood.”
Elizabeth lived through the deposition and death of her young sons, and lived to see the end of her own family name. It must have been such a haunting loss, on both sides.

Hi everyone, I wanted to write a quick update to you guys :)
I made this blog in March of 2021. At the time, I followed my first math course on fractals and dynamics, and had just discovered a tool to make my own awesome fractals. This blog started out as a place to share the art I was making as a coping mechanism during covid, but as I quit making them after a few months, this blog died pretty quickly. In 2022, I decided to start posting regularly again (mostly just shitposts though), just so that the effort I put into this blog wouldn't go to waste.
Then, in the beginning of this year, I started writing my thesis. I posted one (1) shitpost about him (my well-known and popular son), and got 10s of thousands of notes. Every morning I would wake up to another crowd of people who loved the graphs, or were baffled by them, and I got showered in asks to elaborate on him.
Truth be told, 2023 has been a very heavy year for me. A lot of things happened in my personal life, and I lost a dear friend to suicide. It became so difficult for me to keep writing on my thesis, and the project that should have been finished in June this year has now been taking 4 months too many. My mental health has suffered greatly, I haven't been able to take any breaks, and life has just been generally difficult. I have spent nights not being able to sleep because I wanted to finish my bachelor's thesis so bad, but my supervisors would keep demanding more work, more edits, and more drafts. At some point, I even considered quitting my studies and finding a job.
The community has helped me to keep going. Mathematicians and non-mathematicians alike who sent me genuinely interested questions, made me laugh in the notes, created fanart (??? I'm still baffled by this but the people who did this are the coolest in the world) and generally made me feel for the first time that mathematics isn't a universally hated subject. On some days, the only reason I was able to keep going and the only thing keeping me from experiencing burn-out was the support I got through this blog.
Today, 10/12/2023, I turned in my thesis. Thank you so much for your support!

Okay so it's late and I should be asleep but I just a thought.
Y'all would obviously remember the boar hunt scene in Ruins of Gorlan, and how the first thing Halt did when Will was safe was hug him for the first time. Now I know the fandom talks about that very sweet moment, and it is one of my favourites, but I seriously feel like it was a much bigger deal than Flanny made it out to be in the books. Like Halt shot the boar, saved Will and Horace, hugged Will ad then it was never ever mentioned again. I know it's not that much of a big deal but I think most of us are forgetting that Arald and Rodney were there. And they would of 100% teased Halt about it later on.
Also nobody seems to be talking about how there were also other random soilders and knights there. Y'know, the type of people who Halt would keep his grim reputation up for. Then he just throws that all aside and immediatly just turns into the most caring father you've ever seen. Definitly more caring than mine. The only other time we've ever seen Halt do this in public when there are people around that he doesn't know is at the end of Halt's Peril, when he just forgot about everything when he saw Pauline and kissed her for, probably about ten secons. I actually don't know how long kisses are supposed to be for so it might not be actually ten seconds but still. But that was still years after the boar hunt, when we could see Halt as a way more caring and sweet person.
This entire thing means absolutely nothing, it's just a random thought I had and I definitly ended up rambling on more about it than I though I was gonna.
I make might a oneshot about Rodney and Arald tasing Halt about it afterwards. And by might I mean I definitly will.
Yeah but I'd still love to hear y'alls thoughts on it.

not to be about opera again but to be about opera again. as an art form it has the reputation of being super stuffy and something for snobs who don't know how to have fun only but honestly this was one of, perhaps even THE main theatrical entertainment for centuries. i wish people knew how hard these things can go and how engaging they can be. like characters kill and die and fight wars and (almost) commit human sacrifice left and right. characters fall in love they mourn they're ecstatic they cry they're furious it's an extremely dramatic and emotional art form! and i understand that opera does not appear approachable bc of the general conventions of the art form but i promise old works can be fun and engaging if you go watch them with some preparation beforehand (reading the libretto helps) - not to mention not all operas are old bc there are so many modern operas which engage with topical events! also the music slaps.

who is karai's favorite person to hang out with in the bad future?
April O'Neil herself!!!! :]
dont get me wrong she adores everyone in the fam!!!! (the remaining ones that are still kicking it that is) but there is something so relieving about spending time with oneil
(looking at blue makes her think about her own position as the founder of the hamato and it hurts.) (angelo, while absolutely wonderful in conversation, has that idolizing glint in her eye that she cant help but lean away from only out of pure instinct. sure you can argue that oneil is going to have that same idolization but karai senses herself in her. aka that possession thing? yeah karai feels that) (shes a little wary of tello only because she went straight from the fucking 1500s to scifi apocalyptic future and tech,,, scary.) (casey jr reminds her too much of her son, especially how young he lost cassandra and it being a reflection of what she has to do before the twilight realm.) (raphael and splinter are already gone)
and i can imagine that karai sees a lot of herself in april in general. being a person with leadership in a war so much bigger than herself but fighting it anyway because its just whats right. if she can fight and help people out why wouldn't she fight it?
sound familiar to you? (it should it should very much so sound familiar because THATS JUST KARAI BABEY)

I actually have semi fleshed out (kimchay) AUs for like most of Jeff's MV but none of them are finished and I hate(not actually i love talking about them) talking about my wip before they're finished cause it makes me work on them less cause I'm like
I talked about it = I worked on it :)
and then I never continue writing then 😔
Anyway here is a couple of them:
Dum Dum - (currently 12k written)
KimChay are walking home one night accidentally walk into an alleyway where they see a group of gang members killing someone, Kim tries to help Chay escape but ends up knocked on conscious and Chay is taken back to their leader. Chay believes Kim died in the alleyway.
A year passes with Chay now living as the mafia bosses husband. Chays mind is broken and believes the mafia boss is Kim due to him living in delusions to deal with the trauma. One day someone plants a bomb in the mansion and breaks in. Sunshine is tattooed on their neck and Chay thinks its a mercenary sent to kill him. He insists his name is Kim, but Chay doesn't believe him. His Kim didn't have tattoos or white hair.
Lucid- (currently 6k written)
Chay lives by himself and tends to a large garden. one day he finds a man passed out in his garden. Chay takes him back to his home and takes care of him. When the man wakes up he is startled and scared of Chay and jumps out of Chays window.
A week later the man comes back. They grow close and Chay eventually learns the mans name, and that he is a fae. As they grow closer Chay starts to feel sick and he keeps forgetting things. One day he forgets Kim.
Another fae curses Chay to forget Kim every time they part cause they’re jealous Kim doesn’t want them (the curse also causes Chay to be in pain whenever they’re together it takes Kim a while to figure this out which is why he keeps coming back, he just thinks Chay’s sick) but you know Chay is Chay so he’s so excited to meet a fae and talk and help him etc. but eventually Kim figures out how to break the curse: he has to die.
(not MCD has happy ending)
Loop - (currently 4k written)
Kim is forced to work at his family's company but he hates it and is intentionally being bad at his job. When he gets paired up with one of the company's best employees to make him better, Kim starts to fall for Chay. Kim does star actually learned how to do his job but Kim continues to be bad at his job so Chay will have to help him more.
One day Kim overhears his father saying if Chay doesn't get Kim to start working better he will be fired. So Kim starts to actually do his job. And when he is finally doing well, Chay is forced to quit anyway cause Korn doesn't like Kim is in love with a random employee.

So like I was listening to the hamilton ost earlier and after hearing one specific song I was like 'wait I could make TPiaG out of this' and so here's a redoing of the lyrics meant to be set during around the midpoint ish of TPiaG? not sure where exactly idk I'm tired
[and I'm not telling you what song it is and am just hoping someone else will recognize the song-]
G = Grovyle
T = Twig
[Used to indicate who's singing what part]
G: How does Twig...
An anxious, former-human, orphan, reckless, untrusting-
Somehow confide in Dusknoir, his enemy, a pokemon she's despised since his betrayal- Just to keep me out of it?
I just want her to be honest with me,
for her to be honest with me,
for her to be honest with me
I just want her to trust me with this,
Just the one time...
Dear Twig...
I am not one for anger, no matter what you may find
as I reckon with the effects of your life on mine...
I look back on what I said, and after everything I checked, I suppose it's only fair you started to deny your own pain
You may claim I'm a hypocrite, or no better than you,
but whatever it is you want to claim, lie about, or to do,
I want you to know That I am here for you.
Singed, 'Clover'.
T: Well, Grovyle,
Just because you lied isn't the reason I don't trust you.
The reason is you're overprotective, and No:
I won't stop being reckless just because you said I should.
And No, Ark is not the problem here,
You should know that he's harmless,
no matter how much you claim I'm 'not sleeping'-
Like, I only had twenty-one panic attacks yesterday.
G: Sweet Arceus.
T: Listen, I may not be 'free'
Only because there is just one me
I'm a bit busy making sure he's better
I don't want to fight,
Nor will I apologize for doing what's right.
I know that you say you're here,
That doesn't mean I have to trust you.
Signing off, Twig.
[And yeah I'm cutting it off here since it's midnight and I'm tired]
Well now I just want to animate this.
