As we approach the next arc in the story, an outfit change is now on the horizon! The question is, what are our lads going to wear?

(Please also vote in the Lan Wangji poll!)

#poorly drawn mdzs #mdzs #wei wuxian #outfitting arc #poll #Reminder that these outfits are just for the next arc #so they are sticking around for a while but will change later #I love wwx's outfits in The Untamed a lot (there are so many fun variations!) and I cherry picked some of my favourite elements #alas. I am limited in the level of detail that I can add.#but man oh man....this is already a huge step up from where I started.#wwx finally gets to have sleeves....his arms are staying warm #I honestly had a blast coming up with these 4 outfits and I'm very curious to see which one will win!#PLEASE feel free to blast me some constructive criticism too #I *am* doing this to learn (as well as have fun)#forgive me for not having these polls linked until later

Captain Pike's Starfleet coat in Strange New Worlds 2x02 "Ad Astra Per Aspera"

"For Pike's travelling look, we went with a trench style leather coat with no insignia so he could blend in with the Illyrians. Lightly broken down for a "lived in" look." - Bernadette Croft, Strange New Worlds costume designer

Illustration by Strange New Worlds concept artist Christian Cordella.

#star trek strange new worlds #strange new worlds #star trek #spoilers #captain pike #christopher pike #anson mount #trekedit #tvedit #strangenewworldsedit #*edit #was hoping we'd get some concept art of the coat! :)#i'm so glad the costume designer posted it #love the construction of the back especially #croft is doing amazing work on the show #the dark lighting makes the costumes #hard to see in detail sometimes #also due to the show's color grading #i cleaned up the footage as best as i could

every time something from Neil Gaiman's tumblr crosses my dash I'm so concerned about the people writing and to him like. why have you outsourced your imagination to this man? asking shit like 'what does Morpheus sound like in this scene' or 'what does this dialogue mean' or 'what's the backstory to this moment' like BABES. THIS IS WHAT BARTHES WAS TALKING ABOUT. YOU'RE MEANT TO MAKE THESE DECISIONS YOURSELVES THAT'S WHAT MAKES ALL ART A COLLABORATIVE CREATION OF MEANING. if the author wanted something to be explicit in the text they can make it explicit in the text and if it's not explicit in the text YOU CAN MAKE IT UP.

what really gets me is I 100% prommy these kids regularly use 'death of the author' to mean 'i can enjoy works by problematic creators' which 1) yes I agree you can and should (using some discretion re who it profits and what's replicated in the work) but 2) THAT'S NOT WHAT IT MEANS LITERALLY WHAT IT MEANS IS. NEIL GAIMAN'S POST HOC OPINION ON SANDMAN OR GOOD OMENS IS A NO MORE LEGITIMATE FACT ABOUT THE TEXT THAN ANYONE ELSE'S INTERPRETATION. the text has left his control it belongs to the reader now, you get to decide and debate what it means.

#red said #i know i keep making posts like this but IT KEEPS HAPPENING #like you are not toddlers you do not need daddy to hold your hand and walk you through the story #if you're mature enough to meaningfully engage with a story for adults then you are mature enough to interpret it for yourself #and to understand that ambiguity or vagueness or an invitation to imagination are features of storytelling not bugs #hmmm actually I'm gonna tag this #neil gaiman #sandman #good omens #bc. some of you people need jesus or more relevantly literary and critical agency #like you understand that a story isn't a partial view into a reality that's as 3d as our own right?#the play doesn't carry on backstage #you're not MISSING OUT on a fundamental truth of the fictional world that's obscured by the shape of the story it ONLY exists in the story #you're SUPPOSED to construct the context and detail out of the clues you're given in the text and build your own world #and draw your own conclusions #it's not a Real World That Only Neil Gaiman Can See Into it's a STORY he wrote SPECIFICALLY TO INVITE YOU TO IMAGINE #like it's YOURS. YOU'RE meant to fill in the gaps. ART IS A CONVERSATION BETWEEN THE TEXT AND THE READER.#THAT'S what death of the author relates to #what part if any the author has in that other than what they put in the text

Scale of one to ten, how mad do you think Kohga is when, after he describes his/the Clan’s long, difficult work to figure out how to use Zonai tech, to collect charges, and to reconstruct a mighty ancient construct to gift to Lord Ganon, and after he debuts said amazing piece of engineering (which he’s even dressed up to show it’s special and his)*…

Link can just stand back and let his own mech, that he built in like two days tops and that is powered by a sage who barely knows him and is following him more or less blindly because he’s the Princess’s Chosen Hero…

Bop his creation repeatedly with a spiky metal ball (his own signature weapon)?

Because I think the answer is over 9000.

This is the mask of a man having a breakdown.

#yiga clan #legend of zelda #tears of the kingdom #master kohga #I love to death how he gave his construct a huge collar and little sleevies and put his insignia on it #he worked so hard on that thing and didn’t have a magic hand or a Zonai ghost or even the exposition from the stewards/mining constructs #and then link gets *handed everything once again*#((myyyy own screenshots))#((*maaan that’s not a gift whatever you say. you made that for yourself didn’t you? yeaaah yeah you did.))#((just goes to show about that whole ‘yeah I guess we serve Ganon but have you seen master kohga???’ thing the yiga got going on))#((just picturing kohga taking that thing to ganon expecting to be showered with praise and to get to keep using it))#((meanwhile Ganondorf (probably) doesn't even know who he is whoops))#another lil detail: the construct's red shield matches the red-pink-orange magic the yiga/maz koshia use.#but kohga's own personal shields he's used in each fight and in botw and aoc are the blue shared by sheikah tech and impa AND maz koshia #nice blend of the two varieties of ancient sheikah magic on display here! (alongside the zonai-style energy powering the thing)#((iirc seized construct's shield/other magic/tech is a different red color--that's ganondorf's color))

i've been dying for a poll option ever since i saw my followers' answers to that text post from february 2022 asking people whether they pronounce beloved as "be-lov-ed" or "be-loved". many people were emphatic about only using one option, and many others use both but were not always able to articulate when they use 2 syllables vs. 3. so out of the goodness of my heart and my insatiable lust for knowledge i have gone through the notes on that post and written down some likely contenders! you're welcome!!!!

BEFORE YOU ANSWER! think about how you would pronounce beloved in the following syntactic contexts:

noun, talking directly to the beloved: hey there beloved

noun, talking about rather than to the beloved: my beloved lives in a pineapple under the sea

adjective in a noun phrase: my beloved x lives in a pineapple under the sea

verb participle: x is beloved by y

okay poll time! there are no wrong answers!! and apologies in advance if i didn't capture your truth, i only had 10 options and life is a rich tapestry!!

#oh man i could have easily come up with another 5-8 options but they cap you at 10. which is probably a good thing #one person said they say 'my be-lov-ed x' but 'my much be-loved x'. the only difference being the 'much'. couldn't fit that one on here #someone else said they use 3 syllables in a possessive noun phrase (my be-lov-ed x) but 2 if it's not possessive (the be-loved x)#one person said it depends on whether it's past or present & i wasn't exactly sure what that meant. 'x is beloved' vs. 'x was beloved'?#i also think there's likely a distinction for some people between 'x was beloved' and 'x was beloved by y' but couldn't get into that #oh and then there's 'beloved by' vs. 'beloved of'#and since some of these are syntactic distinctions and some are semantic or otherwise i'm sure there's a whole matrix of combinations #like '3-syll noun if it's a person but 2 if it's a thing. 2-syll adjective/verb participle for both people and things'#that was beyond the scope of this poll lol #but mostly why i'm so curious is because people will very emphatically say something that might not mean what they think it means #like for instance i got the impression that at least some of the people saying 'be-lov-ed when i'm talking to them‚ be-loved when i'm #talking about them' actually mean they use be-lov-ed as a noun and be-loved otherwise #and some of the people saying 'always 2 syllables' probably have exceptions that they weren't thinking of at the moment #in particular 'dearly beloved'#and i'm very curious to know if 3-syllable people still use 3 syllables in the construction 'he was beloved by all'#so i think people's answers might change when given a list of more detailed options #fun with pronunciation #prosody #my posts #also i stressed for so long about what to call beloved in the 'x is beloved by y' construction #but settled on verb participle because i think it's fairly descriptive and accurate #so hopefully that's not too confusing? like it is a verb participle but for a verb that doesn't exist anymore (other than the participle)?#and even in 'my beloved x' beloved is a verb participle being used as an adjective if you're thinking more etymologically #but a lot of people were distinguishing 'be-loved as a verb' from other forms and i assume what they meant by that was 'x is beloved'

Hello I wanted to ask if its ok for others to include your magical signature headcannon to their kirby aus,it’s so cool and I wanna use it but I wanna make sure your ok with it first

{the headcanons in question}

oh, yes!! of course, absolutely! i don't think it's all that original, and you're free to take elements and change it how you like, but i'm also happy to elaborate a little on how it works in our specific worldbuilding in case it helps anyone!

as with everything i'd of course love to know if folks use this headcanon in their works!! if you like the idea of using visuals for them how i do, i grab free-use photos from unsplash!

i consider this whole thing to be an alien sensory ability with some synesthetic connotations. for some it could be auditory, for others physical or visual; for others a combination. despite this there is usually agreement on what individual signatures "feel like", regardless of how they are felt

magical signatures are basically just like voices, or faces, or fingerprints. some might be more appealing to certain folks for certain reasons, some might be stronger or more quiet than others (usually a stronger signature denotes stronger magic) but none are inherently bad; not even scary or "evil" ones

these magic voices are all unique, but they can change with time or be a little different in different circumstances. a related family or species might have similar traits in their signatures. folks who share magic very often may pick up notes from each other. life experiences could drastically alter your voice one way or another. someone could- given time, skill, and perhaps malicious intent- override your magic with their own

a stronger proficiency for magic makes sensing these signatures easier. most often they are sensed through touch, and it is generally uncontrollable- like feeling the temperature of your skin. you could initiate a share with someone who was unconscious or unwilling and in most cases still sense their true signature

if you are "sharing" (healing via a mild psychic magic link; imagine a multi-way electric current) your magic will be sensed by the other parties. waddle dees, who are social healers with a social sharing gift, are especially sensitive to the touch-signature

hiding or concealing or changing your signature on purpose is unusual. there's an essence of undeniable truth to it, like soul-seeing. someone like meta knight could learn to purposefully withhold the full strength of their signature, to avoid overwhelming others as an act of kindness. someone like galacta knight could easily do the opposite

the reason starstruck dee's signature in particular is off-putting is not because of the notes of her signature, though it is corrupted: a little unsettling and a little overwhelming; like a very loud voice. the problem is that her signature does not match that of a waddle dee. it's like encountering a dog that quacks like a duck, or touching something that looks dry but is wet. if she were not a waddle dee, most would have taken her signature in stride as simply 'alien'

similarly her ability to 'lie' through her signature is steeply abnormal and meta knight is actively teaching her to hone this skill. in the hope that she'll unlock her 'real' signature by trying on others. in the hope that she'll have a better time socialising with others if she's not so uncanny.

at present she's able to copy other signatures, or combine several into one "new one", but hasn't found one that feels right despite meta knight's tutelage. he's not a fan of how easily she copied his

#thanks for the ask! i hope this helps!!#it's an exciting thought to share my worldbuilding and have folks interested in existing inside of it and its rules?? wow #is this something folks would... like? like if i constructed a headcanoned world state for inserting stories/ocs into?#i worry it would be a bit restrictive on the freedoms of others. i create what *i* like and i think everybody should do the same!!#do ping me if you use it or are inspired! i'd genuinely love to see!! ^_^#asks #my headcanons and worldbuilding #starstruck dee #<- mentioned some important details about her towards the end so it's going in here. not tagging the others

I'm drawing Hancock from FO4 so I can paint him in watercolors. I'm using a specific picture because he looks like he's smiling.

Like look at him! Look at that cute little smile! That cute little face! I love my wife.

I was outlining points of interest like the highlights in his eyes so I DON'T paint on it...

He did ALL the drugs and they are working.

post no longer cancelled though actually. take my hand. look at their littwle shoesies with me :')

#this type of shoe is a calceus btw #it is slightly baffling to me how these are actually constructed byt. thats part of the fun of it #it also made me realize i hadnt looked at them closely enough before to draw them accurately. i didnt notice the little ties....#also what the hell kind of material are they made of thats soft enough to show the outline of the toes through it???#felt maybe???#they look so soft&floppy on the top side its kind of dubiously practical but they do seem to have some kind of harder sole at least #one statue that shows the shoes in their entirety instead of being hidden by fabric is the aulus metellus/orator bronze but i cant find a #high enough quality image of it to get a detailed look</3

The thing about Nona the Ninth that really blows my tits off is the politics.

Like up until now yeah, we knew our protags lived in an empire, and we got a few tantalizing peeks at how it worked, but it was mostly just a Fantasy Empire In Space

And then wham! Nona opens with our main girl living as a refugee in a badly destabilized modern colonial state recently torn apart by the struggle for independence and controlled by an uneasy coalition of armed militia and it's like. Oh.

So it's an empire empire.

#the locked tomb #nona the ninth #this little details like.... the city's infrastructure falling apart bc no one is maintaining it in the aftermath of the revolution #new construction or controlled demolition takes FOREVER bc there's no one to step up in place of the Houses to pay the workers #they have no legitimate government just armed soldiers riding around in humvees #they can't form a legitimate government because the bonds of community and social cohesion necessary for that have been so badly broken #by decades—centuries!—of forced migration #ntn spoilers
