I just got invited to a medieval themed bar called The Rising Sun after several months of hyperfixating on Merlin and it’s impossible to explain my feelings about this to normal people, maybe Tumblr will understand
Daughter of Diavolo and Rhea in her bad endings where Rhea becomes a tyrant. Pandora will end her reign of terror in one of the endings, like a good daughter
Pandora the rising sun, Rhea the fallen sun, Diavolo brand victim (@susboi318116 I still love this joke so much)

A month after returning from NOLA, I had a craving for beignets. That craving took me to The Rising Sun, a NOLA/Southern food sidewalk café. They have an amazing special, three freshly fried beignets and a coffee for $5. For real. And the beignets are made to order. They serve Café Du Monde chicory coffee.
The rest of the menu includes po’boys, fried chicken & waffles, salads, boozy drinks, and coffee. I noticed they use the wrong kind of bread for po’boys. Looks like they use ciabatta.
Three beignets & coffee ($5). The beignets are small (about 2 inches by 1 inch). I didn’t mind the size but the beignets were awful. They were darker, crispier, and greasier – that’s not terrible either. The interior tasted slightly raw. They should use Café Du Monde’s beignet mix?
Coffee with oat milk: Served lukewarm, ugh. Bitter.
The space is interesting and reminded me of New Orleans: jazz music, all black tables and chairs, black fence, black wall, black chandeliers, black planters. I tried to place my order at the kiosk but the payment feature wasn’t working, so I went to the window and ordered there. Parking in the area is difficult.
Okay gang, this is pretty unorthodox for me but...
I have not only written, but actually posted fanfic. Granted, at this stage "fanfic" is a bit of a stretch? It's the game script rewritten. There will be more deviation later.
Not done with this guy yet. Here's his song in the original flavor. Whoever composed it on the music staff needs a promotion for non-offensively creating a theme that appropriately says, "Japanese guy".
Taking a moment to honor all the fallen journalists who gave their lives in order to document the genocide in Gaza and the West Bank; wishing all of those who have evacuated a safe journey onwards, and thanking and praying for those who are currently still working in the field.
Concept: Fire Lords traditionally dress like the stages of the sun to match their reign.
When Zuko is first crowned, he dresses in the colours of dawn. Bright yellows and pinks and even purples. He starts to wear more traditional crimson-and-gold robes after a few years, the colours of midday when Agni is at his strongest. And towards the end of his reign, when he's getting ready to pass the crown onto Izumi, he starts dressing like the setting sun.
