anyway, Elden Ring is about love and hope

Marika burns everything she has build out of sorrow

Ranni banishes the Outer Gods and also fucks off the Lands, giving agency back to the normal beings of the Lands

Fortissax endlessly fights Death for his friend/lover

Melina burns herself and Erdtree in hopes of a better world in the hands of the Tarnished

Blaidd fights against the very reason he was created out of love for his sister

Ranni and Rykard always keep an eye on their mother, protecting her

Radahn evokes so much love from his troops that they organise a whole festival to give him a honorable death even in his madness

Radahn learns an entire new school of magic in order to still ride his favourite horse

Boc's love for his mother, his mother's love for him

How all but two endings are build on the hope that this new era (whatever it might be) will be good

Miquella attempting to create an whole new world-tree to host the forsaken and the damned

Miquella turning on the faith he was raised and even believed in to an extent, when it was unable to cure his sister's curse

The Cleanrot's loyalty to Malenia and their endurance of the Rot, only to stay in her service

Malenia marching through the entire continent in search of her brother

Finlay traveling all the way back on her own, carrying the incapacitated demigod on her back

Tanith's love for Rya

Dialos' entire questline

Edgar being driven mad after his daughter dies

Vyke embracing, to a point, the Frenzied Flame in order to save his finger maiden

or you know, that's just how I see it

#elden ring #i'm simplifying a lot in this #but that's the story #to me #it follows the pattern of the ds series too #where the world was miserable and depressing #yet the main theme was hope and perseverance #with elden ring we got so many more characters and as such love began playing a bigger part too #and you can't really have interesting characters without their actions being driven by love and hope #or lack thereof #even power-hungry characters are driven by the hope of reaching the power “level” they want #and hateful ones are driven by lack of love #or so i think

Workshopping first novel chapters is actual hell. What's working? What's driving the piece dynamically? NOTHING. My advice for you is stop writing <3

If I have to read another EIGHT STRAIGHT PAGES of blunt first person exposition I'm gonna kill someone

#it was actually 6 but it sure felt like 8 #begging ppl to learn how to reveal details in any way that isnt just saying it outright #who is your narrator explaining this to?? themself???? who clearly already knows?????????#i too get up in the morning and get lost in thought thinking abt exactly where i am how i got there and what ive been doing #as well as carefully explicate the history of the location so the listener (me. im thinking) knows exactly what the setup is #this is normal and not boring to read at all #:)))#their setting is genuinely interesting and i think the book could be really fun. if they knew how to write #jay yells #alas i persevere. i hope i get useful feedback for my own chapter but expectations are low

What do I make Touya’s Hero name in Hex!fic

Endurance or Envision?

#I'm trying to base it off of what best jeanist said about picking names #and I'm kinda going off my theory that he would've been like a reverse Bakugou had he not had the accident #so with that in mind OBVIOUSLY he'd base his Hero name on Endeavor #I already have a tag line for him based on Endurance #The Hero That Never Gives Up #and he'd be the Symbol of Determination #or alternatively Perseverance #but personally I prefer the way Envision sounds #like it sounds like a Hero name #and it has callbacks to him trying to fulfill Endeavors vision and be seen by him #and also that Touya had a lot of hope for the future that he could live up to those standards and fix his family one day #the symbol titles would stay the same but I don't have a cute tagline for it #The Hopeful Hero is a little TOO optimistic lmao #I was gonna call him Ultra Violet until I decided on the Endeavor base #dabi #touya todoroki #dabi x reader #oh I hope this shows up in the tag cause I forgot to put those first & I don't want to write all that again lmao #also just my opinion again but I think 'Envision and Hex' sounds a lot cooler than 'Endurnce and Hex'

I am obsessed with my own blogs btw

#like they are me #and I'm actually starting to have fun on tumblr again #I'm getting more comfortable and posting my own stuff and curating things for my different blogs #thighholsterdean is kinda my fave in terms of fandom stuff because i love creating this little place about cas and dean but mostly #about love and how love will persevere #and I'm actually writing again and maybe I'll post it one day and i want to get back into art even tho life is kinda shit #and I've been in such a dumb headspace especially since a very important friendship of mine ended and i felt like i was so unlovable #and fucked up. i really want to find friends once who stay and i wanna be better and i am trying and i hope people will see that #anyway i'm talking too much #txt.

idk what it is. if its because im too naive. because im still young and a teenager learning about reality. or maybe because i dont understand society the same way because im autistic/mentally ill. but why is the world so cruel, why are humans against each other, why is a piece of green paper worth more than life, why are some dead plants and dinosaurs and a chunk of land worth more than children lives.

#im just in fucking awe. i will stay hopeful for a change. i will participate in it.#im really .. dumbfounded that society behaves in a way that is bad for many too much people and it keeps on looping??#humans are doomed to repeat cycles but i need to change the cycle into a loving one. accepting one.#money isnt worth it anymore i just want to see someone in the eyes and to be told/tell them that love will persevere.#personal

thinking about how you have to light the fire of hope for yourself. other people can give you fuel—but the spark? no one can provide that for you. only you can give that first, smallest, most vital piece to yourself.

#my post #sorry just. im so used to thinking that nothing i have is from my own work—god gives you hope/shelter/inspiration/peace etc #but. i cant do the christian thing anymore. *i* gave me the strength and perseverance to survive all the things life has thrown at me.#i am the one who refused to kill me. i am the one who walked through the darkest places of my life. god didnt carry me. i did.#no one lit that match for me. i lit it for myself.#i keep lighting it too. i could never bear to let it go.

Just got all the memories.... Brb I'm going to curl up and cry now. My girl...........

#Zelda bestie.... 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 Above and beyond you gave 10000 percent I couldn't be prouder #You're still in there I know you are sweetheart I'm coming to get you back ToT #You're coming home okay. You're coming home. We're going to get you home now #You're beautiful darling but it's time to come home.#She did so much 🥺😭 all the adults around her were dying and failing and she kept on going past any point of reasonable breakdown #Every zelda game I have such huge respect for zelda because they're always stuck in a trial of endurance and they have to keep all composur #Because so many people are depending on them even then. Keeping it together no matter what so you can share a few droplets of your knowledg #To the hero through the bars on your window. The hero of your ancestors and you have to believe he'll come for you too because he #Is literally the very last hope. For you. For the kingdom.#Oot zelda fled the castle and hid as a shiekah for nearly all her teenage life. Abandoned the stronghold her father dead only her nursemaid #Ss zelda was chased through time and space and eventually sealed herself away to prevent the demons getting her. Lbw zelda was turned into #Painting. Tp zelda was locked in her rooms in an occupied castle where the air was toxic and still got up in the morning and did #Her hair and wore her dresses and avoided aggressing the guards and sacrificed herself to save her fellow princess.#Hw zelda had to fake her death in the middle of a war. She's been sealed away and locked up and beaten down until she doesn't know which wa #Is up and still she perseveres. Courage is a bright flashing firework of danger and thrill.#Wisdom is a long hard slog through the worst moments of your life and making self destructive decisions because that's the only avenue left #Because your faith is balanced on the knifes edge of a near stranger child and his untested skills and unproven loyalty and unknown strengt #And totk zelda... There was one path open to her. A crazy one. She could have made a life for herself. A peaceful one.#But there was only one way that would allow her hope. And she gathered all the information. Weighed the risks.#When she made her choice it was calculated. In full knowledge of what she was doing. She'd just escaped a century of waiting. Torturous.#And she did it all again. For hyrule. For hope. For her stupid swordsman she watched fall off cliffs and drown in ponds and save the world.#Wisdom has chosen courage once more and shown more of it than power ever will.#We have to bring her home. That is the only way this story ends.#loz #legend of zelda #tears of the kingdom #Totk #loz totk #loz tears of the kingdom #loz zelda

It should come as no surprise to longtime followers of both this blog and my main that I take great joy in designing self-inserts for my favorite franchises, whether it's to see how well I can capture a certain vibe or just so I can have a good visual of what I'd look like in that universe to kiss my beloved F/Os— though, if I'm being honest, most of the time it's the latter!

Doing so has been easy for the most part, as a lot of the franchises some of my most treasured S/Is hail from don't necessarily have a complex visual style. Take for example Psycha, who was easy to design outfit-wise after basing it off of an outfit I would wear, or perhaps my Centaurworld S/I, who was even easier to design as all I had to do was draw a toony version of myself with a deertaur half!

Given my recent adoration toward my latest hyperfixation Winds of Change, it was a given that I would design a self-insert for its universe, and I was already brimming with ideas for what a fantasy version of my fursona would look like in the world of Alestia! However, as a contrast to most of my other favorite medias, Winds of Change boasts a very detailed visual style and outfit design for its cast, which meant my S/I would have to follow suit as to not look too out of place.

And about two weeks of on-and-off work later...

I can finally unveil my Winds of Change self-insert, Micah Winddane!

(Check out underneath the cut for a lengthy deep dive on the creation of the above drawing as well as a full view of this sheep seer's weapon of destiny!)

Gosh, where do I even begin? There is just so much that I want to talk about when it came to designing Micah Winddane that it's tough to find a good place to start!

Because Winds of Change has an all-anthro cast, it ended up being a given that I— yet again— would be choosing to model my S/I after a sheep, much like my fursona, Psycha, etc. However, rather than using Psycha as a base as I had for my fursona, I actually modeled Micah Winddane after an actual breed of sheep... the Leicester Longwool!

True to their name, Leicester Longwool sheep are notable for their overly lengthy fur, and given that my hair is currently at the longest length that it's ever been, it felt only fitting to design my Winds of Change S/I around them! This also meant that I would be using a more golden color for the hair as opposed to the usual 'tan-white' color most of my other sheep S/Is have, and if you look closely, you can even see that there's a distinct fur pattern on his face!

With sheep specifics out of the way, let's focus on Micah Winddane's outfit. If you read the tags of my first Winds of Change related post on this blog, you might have seen that I first wanted him to be an 'anxious but good-hearted visionary with a cool fantasy robe'— which, to be honest with you, was how I had been envisioning him throughout my time playing through the game's prelude!

The only reason the whole 'cool fantasy robe' aspect didn't stick around for long, however, was due to a certain set of characters in Winds of Change possessing such a look... The Triumvirate, antagonists who are shrouded in mystery underneath an iconic white robe with a yellow trim.

Not wanting my S/I to be dressed too similarly to the big bads, I had to opt for something a little more modest, and in line with the outfits the rest of Winds of Change's cast wear. I took to Google to cherry-pick several medieval outfit designs, and took my favorite aspects of each one to combine together into a base outfit.

For a while, the above lineart was just about all I could come up with. Of course, it looked a little bland by this point, but that was merely because I hadn't given him a good coloring, yet... but that was another hurdle of its own. I knew how I would color his fur and hair, but what about his clothes...?

Thankfully, Winds of Change's canon provided a solution. Around the point of the game where you receive the all-powerful Blade of Exodus— which we'll also focus on in due time— you also are given a change of clothes... clothes that are described as a 'combination of Valessa and Fortaime's outfits'.

It's a good thing that the base design I had already drawn didn't stray too far from a hypothetical mix between Valessa and Fortaime's clothes, and it even served as a good basis of how to color Micah Winddane's own. I color picked certain colors from both their designs to use in my S/Is and was soon able to settle on a color palette that I liked!

... but the design still felt particularly lacking. The colors looked great, as did what I had for an outfit, but the more I looked at my current progress, I felt as though something was missing... and then, I had a brilliant idea— if I couldn't give him a robe, what if I gave him a cape?

Fortaime's baggy scarf was my main inspiration in settling on a shoulder cape, and the instant I had the idea of giving my S/I one, I wasted no time in adding it to his design... and I'm so glad that I did, because it made him look SO much better!! I knew that I wanted his cape to be a shade of blue (My trademark favorite color), and settled on a faded shade since a more vibrant blue looked a little too shrill amidst the other colors.

Lastly, since my Winds of Change S/I is the foretold Seer, he would need to be equipped with the aforementioned Blade of Exodus throughout his adventure. However, upon coming up with the idea of giving Micah Winddane a large sword sling to carry the blade on his back, I realized something...

... the blade only has two canonical appearances from what I've seen, and only one of which— being found in the game's logo— shows it in full color. I was thankful to even have a visual of the Blade of Exodus, but only having the linked image to go off of in terms of color made redrawing it a bit tough, as I would have to improvise a bit to make it look less desaturated.

And what started out as improvising turned into a slight stylization of the Blade of Exodus' colors! Throughout the game, there's a large emphasis on how obvious it is that you're the possessor of the blade, and I decided to give the blade colors that stand out from the otherwise dull colors of Micah Winddane's outfit!

... uh, wow. I think that might just be my most in-depth design deep dive I've written yet. But everything that I wanted to touch base on has been accounted for, and with all of it written out at last, it feels so wonderful to finally get around to sharing this design with everyone as it's one of my ultimate favorite self-insert designs I've ever created!

#S/I #Self-Insert #Self-Insert Art #Fursona #S/I Ref #Fantasy Character Design #Self-Ship Community #Klace's Winds of Change #「Micah Winddane: The Valorous Visionary」#BREAKING NEWS: SHEEP TOO PURE FOR THIS WORLD #Because I've addressed everything in pertains to Micah Winddane's design just above...#... I saved talk in pertains to his personality for the tags #What makes Micah Winddane special is that I think he's the most like me out of all of my self-inserts #All of my other S/Is have some twist on their personalities- Psycha is 2000% wholesome and Quinn is a total klutz #But Micah Winddane? All of my choices in WoC so far pretty much reflect how I would think and act in such a scenario #He's a great deal more emotional out of all of my S/Is and does what he can to fight what he believes in- a better future #This of course provides a neat flaw in his character... becoming attached to those around him #Which in a time of war is the worst possible thing you can do seeing as you can lose anybody at a moment's notice.#Yet he perseveres. Seeing his destiny through to the end in the hopes that everyone he travels with joins him on the endeavor #I find that he has the most depth out of my self-inserts and is definitely something I want to make a post on in the future #But for now? If I ever want to request or commission art of my Winds of Change S/I with Valessa?#I have him all drawn out!
