It's time to share the Xmas makes, starting with maybe the biggest one: derpy shark pillow for @sharkbebe 🦈 It was scary at the start, but it grew so fast, was sooo fluffy and I had such fun making it 💙
Pattern by @spinayarncrochet , yarn is Alize Velluto and a bit of white czech Batole by Vlnap.
Creative Challenge week 39/2022 dedicated to the women of Iran who are forced against their will to cover their hair and to those who cover them not against their will but protest women being killed for loose headscarves by a misogynistic government of fear. #womensupportingwomen #womenofiran #supportiranianwomen #longhair #freedomofhair #sharkhead #collagecommunity #art #contemporaryart #mixedmedia #collage #collageart #analogcollage #collagenottinghill #loveanalogcollage #collagist #handmadecollage #contemporarycollage #cutandpaste #thecollagetemple #artistofinstagram #コラージ#collageoftheday #twincitiescollagecollective #design #pariscollagecollective #contemporarycollagemagazine #pariscollageclub #analogcollagecommunity #redhairrocks https://www.instagram.com/p/CjDKRsdqru9/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
🦈 This is one of my favorite drawings I’ve done. This is Sharkman Maui. In my copy of the “Art of Moana” book, I saw an early concept drawing of a bald-headed Maui, like the one you see here with the shark fin and tail. The gold bracelets are my homage to the Genie from “Aladdin” and somewhat of King Triton from “Little Mermaid”. The drawing I saw in the book was done by the late Dale Baer. 🌊🪝
🥀 Twitch recently removed the limit on Hype Train levels, and last Wednesday my chat decided to break the House of Quartz channel record with, "Yolo". 😂

Wow don't you hate it when a supposed coward gets appointed deputy and not you, a clearly capable warrior?

HELPPPPPPPPPP they will say he molded the ass chair to his partner ass when it’s just his ass 😞 justice for Taehyung’s ass 😞
Most of my current YouTube bingeing is about disasters/tragedies from caving, diving, mountain climbing, etc. Me being me, I'm also thinking about how these extreme/dangerous activities would work in the magical world, and applying my enjoyment of "magical flaws" to them. [See: Flaws in Fiction: Magical Edition]
Sure, we can pretend magic makes everything super easy, but isn't that boring?? Think of all the magical supplies they'd need, or spellwork, potions, etc. And the options! Maybe some wixen are more skilled in Transfiguration and opt for more sharkhead type diving (a la Krum) or using gillyweed (hello Harry.) Maybe some options are better than others, such as potions versus a sequence of spells. And the fact that magic will wear off eventually.
Also: what if you cast wrong? My idea for "why do magical folk wear glasses?" is: well the eyes are a sensitive area, do you really wanna risk worsening your eyesight, or worse?? What if the magic went awry and caused brain damage?? Do you think every magical person ever casts perfect spells every time???? No mistakes ever???? Gotta look at that cost-benefit analysis! Why risk your eyesight when you can just wear glasses? Glasses aren't that bad, I promise.
But now take that further. Imagine using spells to supplement your oxygen. What if you blew up your lungs or something? Or the spell tampered with your blood? Our bodies are very intricate machines, you know. I'd imagine one would need very precise spellwork to not do worse damage trying to fix a problem.
Like...what if you shrunk yourself to explore a tight cave tunnel? Then...the spell wore off at the worst time? You just expand back to your normal size in a very tight area?? What do you think that would do to a person?
All of that before we even introduce "what dangerous magical creatures are lurking on the mountaintops?" question!
One day I'm going to have to write some good established snarry to focus more on worldbuilding and magical theory and put this stuff to the test!
What are your thoughts on ways in which magic could be dangerous, or go wrong? Ways that magic might not be such a perfect and easy fix for things?
"Ha! Finally! Quartered! " laughed Susan as the crowd rushed by her to fight among themselves for the fresh prime cuts. The Prince had ever so graciously gifted dinner and show.
