I was watching a Youtube video of all the Cinematic from the new Overwatch Invasion update (cause heaven knows I ain't buying it) and I noticed at the end Ramattra has this like.. Burn? Mark?? On his chest that goes through his cape
So I downloaded Overwatch on my PC to get a look at the Wandering/Traveling Monk skins this scene is using and I noticed..
Traveling and Wandering have a lot of visual differences, most notably in the burn the originally got my attention.
Wandering has been used canonically to show Ramattra's monk days previously, in his origin story and in the Developer commentary, but interestingly the artwork in those videos is lacking that very burn
Overwatch character designers are very good at visual storytelling, especially with Omnics (I could write an essay on what they've done with Zenyatta), so I believe this burn may very well be what became the Last Straw for Ramattra, what pushed him to leave the Shambali, what caused his fall into violence and eventually Talon.
Was he attacked? Or was he attempting to protect someone else? Despite his best efforts to shield them, the shot fired right past him, scorching his metal, cutting through his cape, and taking their life...
I hope we learn more about it.
#Overwatch#Ramattra#It's Emile goes insane about Overwatch Lore but only for the Omnics time again#Also while gathering screen shots for this I did become mildly obsessed with the red?? bag?? Cloth??? Ramattra is wearing when he meets Zen#99% because Zenyatta is wearing it on their walk to the Shambali#But also because Zen seems to STILL be wearing it AT the Shambali but as an obi(?) and he was also still wearing it in OW1#But not anymore in OW2???#Where'd Zenyatta's comfort red fabric go??? What happened???#(well his ow2 design would have been cluttered with it with all the red cables is the real answer but kfdjgkdf)#I'M OBSESSED WITH ZENYATTA'S VISUAL STORYTELLING#Other Omnics have it too like Maximilien who has a lot of Human Augmentations like opening his mouth#Because he's a class traitor#Love that for him#Or how Bars has Tribalera Boots implying she's originally from Northern Mexico#I might be wrong about that one actually fkjgkf Assumption there#Anyway RAMATTRA'S BURN#I'm sooooooo unhinged about it actually#The idea of hims shielding someone begging the humans around him to put down their weapons not to shoot etc#Watching them die... Ooooh yeah#It wasn't his first time seeing his siblings die at human hands.. But he vowed it to be the last time...#It could also have been Zenyatta who got shot#We're still not 100% about that whole#'Those were the exact words I'd said to Zenyatta.. Right before I nearly got him killed'#Like when it happened or how it went down#I ASSUMED that was post First Meeting before Shambali#But it could have been while they were traveling and serving the community around them....#God I have you Activation Blizzard but I LOVE you Overwatch Creative Team#Can't wait to know more

Me: Hey, I finished that dress I've been planning to make since last May.
My mother, silently grateful my first summer dress of the year is not covered in manic cartoon animals: Oh that looks lovely... Though don't you think you put a bit much fabric into your skirt? You could have used half and had enough left for a second dress.
Me: It's more comfortable this way. Not as clingy. And it's cut to be low waste, so you get a lot of bang for your buck.
Mom: ... How much is in there?
Me: Only like 4 meters.
Mom: Of a low waste pattern.
Me: Yup.
Mom: Give me one reason you need that much "bang for your buck".
Me:
#sewing#skirt is Salix by Unendlich Schön#lengthened by a full 30 cm#because yolo#bodice is from the Riviera dress by Lotte & Ludwig#straight neckline and no fake button placket#fabric is Aina from IKEA#and a lil square of jersey in the back#you're supposed to not wash the linen on normal#and don't put it in the dryer#whoops#it's now soft as a cloud#skirt go spinny#I might need to get more of this fabric#also 10/10 would recommend just straight up replacing a back panel with jersey instead of putting in a zipper#you do have to gather (part of) your skirt onto elastic but that's still more idiot proof to sew or wear than an elastic#and yes#there's pockets#smaller than intended#but still plenty big for my phone and wallet#i then showed my creation to a sewing friend who loves skirts that are knee length or higher#she said she would immediately wear that dress if it were half as long#GOOD NEWS#it's supposed to be#and you can even make it a patchwork pattern#we're not gonna talk about how long this took to hem#pictures taken outside because it was the first warm day of the year#and also because I can't spin it safely while indoors#i could remake it in manic cartoon but it would cost at least twice as much

petition to KEEP STEDE FANCY
yes, to some extent stede’s fancy clothes and knickknacks were probably sources of comfort and a coping mechanism while he was trapped in a rigid society he couldn’t stand, and yes he did give up all his wealth...so i get that there are plot- and character-development–related reasons that people are portraying post-s1 stede as this austere and competent sea captain guy BUT?? stede does actually LIKE fancy things. and Ed likes fancy things too (ESPECIALLY fashion).
If my baby boys make it back to each other, they are going to need an auxiliary wardrobe to the auxiliary wardrobe for all the clothes they will steal/have made. every couturier in every port will be aware of the two fancy, vaguely sketchy dilfs that come around every few months and place huge orders (and also have lots of suspicious mending they need done—things that look like bullet holes but they insist were dropped cigars, lots of “wine” stains, etc)
anyway keep master and commander stede as just a phase pls, and let my boys be happy and fancy together. ty
#ofmd#our flag means death#stede bonnet#edward teach#blackbonnet#maybe while stede is looking for ed he'll gather fine fabrics and clothing on raids that he thinks ed will like#and after they reunite#he'll present them as part of an apology offering#and ed will be like the only offering i want is you#and they'll tearfully hug#and after a beat stede will be like you're looking at the chest of fabrics over my shoulder aren't you#and ed will be like is that cashmere#i love them#oh also they will definitely put on lil fashion shows every time they come back from shore leave with their picked up orders#i want this for them

I'm going to my first fiber fest tomorrow! Help me pick out patterns and decide what to buy!
I've been crocheting for about 3 years now and feel like I'm at a solid intermediate skill level now, which means I'm going to treat myself to some fancy yarns! I've done some looking online at hand dyed yarn and am feeling quite overwhelmed honestly. There are so many dyers and yarn bases and color combinations, and I have no idea what will look good crocheted. Most of the swatches of hand dyed yarn are knit and crochet eats up so much yarn that I have no idea how the yarn would look in a crocheted project, so I'm feeling a bit lost! Should I go for stripes? Speckles? Gradients? Tonals? I just don't know!
I'd really love to make a shawl/wrap in hand dyed wool, but am struggling with finding a pattern so I know how much yarn to buy tomorrow. Does anyone have any crochet shawl patterns that will look good with hand dyed yarn? I'm open to working with anything from fingering to worsted weight and feel pretty confident with most stitches. I would prefer something that doesn't have large sections of open work or lace, but I will conquer crocheted lace if there's a pattern out there that would shine with a hand dyed yarn. I'm also pretty confident with Tunisian crochet and have been eyeing a few shawl patterns from TL Yarncraft recently.
Any recommendations for yarn or patterns is greatly appreciated!
Here are the patterns I've been considering, but I cannot for the life of me decide which one to buy for. Please help!
#crochet#hand dyed yarn#wool fest#crochet help#crochet pattern#crochet shawl#I'm going to the wool gathering in Yellowsprings OH if anyone has a vendor you think I NEED to see#I will not unfortunately be buying things to learn how to spin#because my roommates are already fed up with me leaving yarn and fabric scraps and fuzzes everywhere I walk#I can't imagine how they'd feel about me bringing home loose fiber and flinging it everywhere while I learn#I also really hope vendors have pre-made things tomorrow!#I really want some alpaca socks but there is no way I'm learning how to knit socks just for that

lowkey, i think this is the best shit i've ever written!!!!
Spock allows himself to smile, to withdraw from pointing out the complicated intricacies of their heartbeats. Instead, he agrees with Jim, concedes to the romanticism of it all and leaves logic in the same place where his shirt is folded. He will take it up once more later, but for now, there is no real use for it when the only thing he knows he needs at this time is the man beneath him.
theres just something about it!!!!!!!! that makes me go!!!!!! !!!!!!! !!!!
#shut up jim#jim writes#my st#star trek#spirk#this is literally my magnum opus i swear#i know i keep saying it but it's true#spock is a secret romantic fight me on it#and completely wrapped around jim's finger#if you see this now congrats; you get more sneak peak#Spock’s hands drift under the loose tee shirt that Jim is wearing' slowly bunching the fabric together as it moves away from his hips#gathers at his shoulders’ and then finally over his head.#Spock lets it drop behind him’ and lets it slowly pool into a puddle of cloth on the bedroom floor.

Alright beginning work on moth outfit and:
1) fought to load the bobbin for 20 minutes
2) gave up on sleeves bc every piece of fabric is a different size
3) began shaping the wings with wire and found out I don't have anything to cut them with
#i hope the drug store has pliers or bolt cutters or w/e bc im not going back to the fabric store for anything other than fabric#i wanna shape the wings and then see how much fabric i actually need for them and THEN start gathering that up#i uh. have no idea where I'll put these or how I'll get them in my car for this con lmao#i. kinda wanna keep them up on the wall in front of my trans flag hehe#big pink wings with hearts..#shai speaks

I'm bored and don't want to go to sleep yet. So, people who are interested in lolita fashion, what's your favorite print and in which colorway ? (Regardless of the style of the dress/skirt, if you would wear it or if it's a rare print... just the print alone)
Mines are either Angelic Pretty Candy Sprinkles in lavender or BtSSB Blooming Snow White in ivory.
#lolita fashion#egl#angelic pretty#baby the stars shine bright#I'm just really curious#sorry for the wrinkly photos#it's hard to photograph a print on a gathered fabric#and my candy sprinkles jsk hasn't been worn in years so it's really creased

Since I don't have a reliable way to machine-gather my fabric, I've been doing hand-gathering for Cecily's skirt. (Yes I know I can just pin it really small and it'll work, but I'm paranoid that it'll look too much like pleats. Even though it won't. But anyway.)
So, I have about 42 feet of material hand-gathered now into the 4 different tiers of her skirt.
I'm kinda just glad that she's a small actress.
Now to go pick up all the ruffly pink ribbon I have on back order.
