"Obscurial and Crow”
read and adored the wrong strain by @colubrina last week, so have some art ya filthy animals
here our young lovers (or “friends" as they insist on calling it) are all dressed up for a costume party. if these elegant black ensembles aren’t costumey enough for you dw, zabini dresses as a pirate and oils up his bare chest. something for everyone!
live laugh love me a veela fic - feel free to rec your faves, I dearly hope there are some out there I’ve not yet encountered
(edit: altered my caption slightly because it came out better on reddit - I was sleep deprived before and someone got mad I jokingly criticised masquerade balls and I’m simply not ready to be cancelled over these deeply controversial opinions of mine)

Should Buffy have stayed in heaven?
Interesting question! From a Doylist perspective, we wouldn't have had the last 2 seasons of the show if she hadn't been resurrected (which would have been fine with a lot of people, I'm sure). I know they ended season 5 the way they did because it was possible that was the end of the whole series, but as much as I disliked season 7 as a whole, I kind of liked the idea of the Slayer in general and Buffy in particular getting to live instead of following the "tradition" and dying to save the world. Again.
From a Watsonian perspective, it never sat right with me that the Scoobies thought Buffy was in (a) hell after dying to save the world, and it would have made more sense that they'd go looking for the new Slayer they thought would be called (since they didn't realize, and never did figure out even in season 7, that the Slayer line now went through Faith because Buffy had already died). But also, they'd made being the Scoobies like 99% of their personalities, and what's the Scoobies without the Slayer? It's totally possible to read it as they're all in serious denial about what they're doing because they just want her back so badly, which is why they didn't tell Giles or Dawn or Spike what the plan was.
So--it would have been kinder all around to leave Buffy in heaven, but neither the show nor the characters as developed could really leave her there.

Now that I've got The Muddy Princess finished recording, I thought I'd make a snazzy lil' Book Cover, and remaster the cover art I'd previously made.
Then, it turns out that oh wow but you can actually get a single copy Print on Demand of soft and hardcover books.
ENGAGE DESIGN-EN-ING MODE, MAXIMUM POWER...!
Tumblr media
So I spent my Saturday making a Dust Jacket cover for The Muddy Princess! Woot! Or is it Sunday? WHAT DAY IS IT??
I like it~! Made with Canva, Sketchbook Pro for Tablet, A1111, and SDXL 1.0. Mascot Muse Seal of Audiobook Approval, included! ❤️

I think this might be the funniest prompt I've ever heard for a short story.
@colubrina @silverbirching Please consider writing it 😅
"I think it would be very funny for characters in a fantasy setting to walk into a pub and try to order and the bartender sighs and goes, 'Species and age?' while pulling out a massive book holding the drinking age of every type of species capable of purchasing"

Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. Let’s spread the self-love
heart, i implore you, a Scholomance fic, El learning from different schools of magic
along the churchyard green, a HP fic, twisting the ol’ Master of Death trope
tasting ancient hungers, a The Coldest Girl in Coldtown fic, all the ways Tana’s life could have gone
the whole world is a garden, an Our Flag Means Death fic, Jim learns about unconditional love!
all the night-tide, a The Old Guard fic, where time travel and love letters intersect

Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. Let’s spread the self-love
Ooohh, I love this!!! Here we go:
Stay (Glee, Sebastian Smythe/Dave Karofsky) - this was my first-ever fanfic, written more than a decade ago, and I still have a lot of love for it!! Would I change things if I wrote it now? Sure! But I'm still damn proud of it.
Thank You for the Flowers (Legends of Tomorrow/The Flash, Barry Allen/Leonard Snart) - my first non-Glee/Smythofsky fic (... but still involving a character played by Grant Gustin lol)! It was my first time participating in a Big Bang, too, and there's lovely accompanying art by @oriley42 :)
We Deserve It (Legendborn, Bree Matthews/Nick Davis/Selwyn Kane) - you know that feeling when the characters won't get out of your head? This fic emerged from one of those times! Also, my first time writing an OT3! I'm very proud of the way I got into the heads of a new set of characters and let myself play with a world that wasn't fully built.
Secrets and Honesty (All for the Game, Neil Josten/Andrew Minyard) - this is my first REAL multi-chapter fic, and it's by FAR my most popular fic to date (seriously, it's an order of magnitude ahead of anything else I've written by pretty much whichever stat you look at). And I love it! Minyard-Josten Rivalry! Top tier Kevin Day friendship! A nice helping of Jerejean on the side, plus some Renison! I wrote EXACTLY what I wanted to read and, as a bonus, other people wanted to read it, too.
To Be Certain We'll Be Tall Again (All for the Game, Kevin Day/Jean Moreau/Jeremy Knox) - this is my longest [posted] fic so far, and, while this list is just in chronological order and while picking favorite fics is like picking favorite children ... if I had to pick just one, it might be this one. I love Kevin Day and I love angst with a happy ending and I turned all of that up to 11 in this one!! AND it helped inspire A Falling Star, the INCREDIBLE series by @knickknacksandallthat <3 So that in and of itself is enough to make this one of my favorites :)

Okay so I’ll just go with five songs that I’ve been listening to on repeat this week (but to keep it interesting, I’ll only allow myself 1 Hozier song):
Francesca - Hozier
And So It Goes - Billy Joel
Woman in Red - San Fermin
I Am the Antichrist to You - Kishi Bashi
Love Me Like You Used To - Lord Huron
Why yes I have been having an extended post season 2 Good Omens breakdown. How could you tell?

V1 Chapter 3 Art for "Lady of the Lake by Colubrina"
Tumblr media
Gotta more-Hermione-ify it, change her hairstyle, clean up her hand, clean up the background, and change up her bracelet. Almost there!
I got some really good gens outta this one! Spoiled for choice! I ended up amalgamating 5 images into this one (the lamppost, the street and sky, Draco/Hermione upper bodies, Hermione face, Hermione Hair).
Here's ones that are good, but didn't make the cut:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Art Generation Info Below!
Prompt: an off-center closeup shot of Draco Malfoy and [Hermione Granger:Emma Watson:0.5] gazing lovingly at each other while standing in a spotlight under a tall streetlight in [Diagon Alley] [next to a fountain with a statue in it] and a bookshop in the background , 25-year-old, romantic, on a date, at twilight, holding each other, a romantic embrace, true love, coy, first date, (sleeveless sleek cowlneck black wrap dress), (a reporter surreptitiously in the background smoking a cigarette and holding an antique flash camera), victorian, gazing deeply into each other's eyes, tentative hopefulness, lips slightly parted, wistful, dynamic asymmetry, background dynamic asymmetry, people mingling in the background
Negative Prompt: anger, sadness, kids, eyes closed, symmetry, [[technicolor]],
Style "@ not the camera" Negative Prompt: (((looking at the camera))), facing the camera, eye contact with the viewer, (((looking at you)))
Style "Cover Art": a detailed Cover Art painting of {prompt} . official art,a detailed drawing,fantastic realism,magic realism,cinematic lighting,fantasy art,pre-raphaelitism,gritty,dystopian,dark,gothic art,high contrast,cyberpunk art,dramatic shadows,mysterious
Neg: simplified, abstract, unrealistic, impressionistic, low resolution, glitch, deformed, mutated, cross-eyed, ugly, disfigured
Style "Book Heading Happy": official art,a detailed drawing,fantastic realism,cover art,magic realism,fantasy art, Oil Painting, Chiaroscuro Painting, sharp focus,4K,8K,sharp,crisp,detailed,highly detailed,epic,gorgeous,ultra detailed,intricate, pre-raphaelitism, [William Adolphe Bouguereau],
Neg: nuns, monks, bare feet, comic book panel, manga panel, comic panel, tux, tuxedo, nsfw, nude, shiny skin, wings, forum post, character sheet, cartoon, pop art, cropped, out-of-frame,
And then I used XYZ plot for samplers, Styles, and Search-Replace first-keyword perspective orientation (closeup, wide angle shot, forced perpective, low angle shot)
The lighting was done in Sketchbook Pro, by making a gradient of a spotlight, erasing some light lines and softening the edges, then layering that with the "Glow", "Soft Glow", and "Color Burn" blending modes (to create glowing highlights and shafts of light within the existing image), and whole-image layers in Multiply (to darken darks), and Grayscale (to control saturation)
Probably about 500 or so gens, in about 8 gen runs, and 3 gen runs in img2img, and about..25 layers in Sketchbook Pro
Nicey nice!
