Some coast striker concept doodles, mostly to showcase their weirdo double tongue + i love drawing teeth. Also whelps are see through when they hatch, most lose this quality as they grow, but a few (especially in the Deepwater) keep their translucency well into adulthood.

A small fun fact, many humans call coast strikers "grinning deaths" as their toothy snarls can look like a grin to a person. Given their amount of teeth and their two tongues, other AshWings can find them a bit unsettling

#wings of fire #wof #ashwing #dragons #art #oh yeah remember those region variation drawings i made? im dividing the coast into three regions: the deepwater (open ocean/seabed)#the saltwater (the coastal cliffs) and the freshwater (more inland in the peninsula lots of #wetlands and rivers and lakes. kinda like everglades and mangroves in some areas #however im not sure about the eggs. hmmmm #bc its like this OR regular eggs with an almost conical shape which i believe is common in cliff birds? so the eggs spin on the same place #instead of out of the nest and falling to their doom

A hyperfixater's guide to fully enjoying the Remedyverse:

- Google "Max Payne Grimace"

- Look up enough of the comic panel cuscenes from Max Payne 1 to realize all the characters are Remedy's office staff plus the band members from Poets of the Fall.

- Listen to "The Late Goodbye."

- Play Alan Wake 1. Preferably in the dark. Listen to all the music in between chapters. Wait at least a day between the main story and the DLC chapters to really let the feeling of wanting to know what happened sink in.

- Optional: Wait two years

- Play Alan Wake's American Nightmare. Arachnaphoba may vary.

- Optional: Wait four more years.

- Optional: Play Quantum Break. It's not officially part of the Remedyverse but we didn't know that at the time and it played with our emotions with Alan Wake teases for the entire damn game. Plus - Lance Reddick at his finest.

- Optional: Wait three more years.

- Play Control. Explore a lot. Read everything you can get your hands on. Bask in the nigh unrivalled glory of The Ashtray Maze.

- Prior to playing the Control DLCs, spend an ungodly amount of time obsessing over why one of them is just called "AWE" and all the possible implications.

- Play the Control DLCs

- Freak the fuck out

- Optional: Wait 4 more years

- Play Alan Wake 2

- Gush about how much you love it all to me specifically because nobody ever knows what I'm talking about when I mention these games and you guys they are important to me in a way that should probably deeply embarass me.

Of course to really get the full experience you'll need to constantly concuss yourself to the point of never knowing if Alan Wake 2 will ever exist and thus preserve the sweet agony of being a Remedy fan between 2010-2020ish.

Old Gods of Asgard music may help soothe the pain.

few questions i wanted to ask. i know the video's like 9+ years old now, but whatever happened to that video you had on your old youtube that was just a still image of raj from camp lazlo with you narrating over it telling people to not watch montage parodies, and what was the tune that accompanied it? because i completely forgot it was for years now. also, are there any aspects of florida that you kinda miss which you feel like you really can't get in chicago?

basically asking "song name?" on a video i not only made but also DELETED a decade ago is admirable dedication. here u go homie ur journey finally ends tonight thank u for the patience✌️🤝

youtube

#regarding chicago: i miss the atlantic ocean but sometimes when its super windy lake michigan gets choppy sorta like the sea❤️💔#regarding the vid itself: im sorry if u feel different but that video was cringe as fuck its just me circa 2014 complaining abt meme trends #momentary pettiness always ages like milk its healthier to let it get vanquished to an abyss than immortalize it forever imo

LOVELY DAUGHTER UNSOUND MIND!

#her name is the morning dews her name is light ! her brother has no excuse for his cruelty she can #change the world she has to change this country first if one day she resents me i hope i will care for her stil #his name is the lake his name is the singing bird he is going to to die soon its all neurodegenerative i miss him dearly #and ill miss him more still. a pool of wealth gathers on the shores of an island in the carribean holding ears #building domes and turning heads away in terror of the finite. a photo to the chat of a styrofoam cup full of himalayan salt #sent by the millionaire. answer echoes answer. would you like to be a guest speaker inside my lungs?#THROW THE ARROW INSIDE THE AUTOCLAVE PIERCE THE APPLE ON THEIR HEAD WITH GREAT STERILITY WITH GREAT CARE WITH SOUND MIND #somewhere over the ocean there is turkish coffee the dark wood of a berlin coffee shop the white sunlight of swiss alps #my friend sending me poetry in jest from tokyo her heart in rural china #my heart with the large sun of northern iran flowing through streetlight poles at dusk holding two trans girls hand in hand

wish my family lived closer to the coast bc what I would give to just sit on the beach and dig my toes in the sand rn…

#i miss california so much 😭#and nyc lowkey… havent been there in years though #i know I could do the same at a lake or smth but its not the same :(#theres just something so different about looking out into the ocean and not seeing the other side… just a horizon of blue #its so nice… just wanna listen to the waves while i take a nap on a blanket

Part of being Canadian is how similar we are to the US, and honestly not a single person on earth I think could genuinely pin point the difference between Canadian and American culture but the average Canadian. Americans assume we're the same as them (we aren't), even a bunch of Canadians think we're Americans, especially around voting seasons, and about half our cultural identity is "we're Not American!" but there are some cultural differences and if we all spoke French equally we could have had a language distinction but nooooo. Despite not being America unfortunately such a fuck off massive country right below your teeny tiny ass country (population wise) does result in a cultural avalanche from said fuck off massive country. Especially when you share a language.

The war of 1812 will forever be funny to me though because Americans were like "hmm maybe Canadians would also like to tell the British to fuck off, we will invade to show them!" And Canada was like *burns down the white house* and we've been tentatively chill with each other ever since lmao (even when we probably like. Shouldn't be cool with America but like. We could not risk that implosion politically or otherwise it'd be suicide).

#winters ramblings #apparently americans think they won the war of 1812 and you did not. you did not achieve your goal #and a bit over 100 years later canada would nicely ask sempi to be free and britian decided yeah i guess #you guys did a vimmy ridge in WW1 i guess you can be yourselves #and native people- still unable to vote and would be ineligible for another some 50 years or so- were probably like ??!!!!?!!!#REMOVE these pale faced demons!! and i cant say i blame them for that even if my settler ass does not mind being from here #no fucked up spiders very few fucked up bugs ok seasons amd weather where *I* live anyway #i cant complain too much aint no spiders the size of my head OR fucked up weirdo beez on steroids that look like some feckin #HUNGER GAMES ass shit and not an earth bug. if i lived on either coast though my opinion would be different #especially the east coast FUCK their ocean-y assed winters lake effect is bad enough. the SNOW BELT is bad enough #i cando without that shite too although outwest aint better especially in the praries but still no fucked up bugs so 🤷🏻‍♀️#anyway i do genuinely believe if youre not canadian you wouldnt even know the difference between America and Canadian culture #OR the difference of history and even CANADIANS dont know our voting system isnt the same #like we dont even have half the shit Americans do like an electoral college and canadians STILL think we need to vote #as if we're in a 2 party system. we arent. arguably were in a 4 party system but 3 if you reasonably dont count Greens #its fuckin weird though because youll see people talk about canada and america interchangeably #and like i cant evenblame em when even some canadians get confused or WORSE actually WANT to be america #usually conservatives who like deepthroating boot #although i do think this is somewhat odd as a phenomenon because America doesn't have ONE culture #what canada is near idential to is NORTHERN Americans like the south is a whole Thing with a textured history #like obviously the north is too but culturally i get that more than what the south has going because you could even argue #the south have MULTIPLE cultures and in the north you could at least argue the coasts are distinct culturally #like they got terms like pacific north west we dont have ANY of that we are an EXTREMELY small rural country #its strange to confise it with America but at the same time like. yeah that makes perfect sense to me. and not all at once lol

I think the reason I love sunny sm is bc my friends/family all argue and yell at each other the same way the gang does so its very familiar

#earlier my mother and I were arguing about if the great lakes were larger or smaller than the indian ocean #(easy google search btw but thats not the point AND i was right) and my brother just stared at me and said we remind him of the show #i dont think thats a postive thing but whatever dude #iasip #its always sunny in philadelphia

Long years had passed since Execution Hill had frightened her, though today the prospect of the climb was almost enough to turn her on her heel and send her home. She was not frightened anymore. Now she only felt affinity.

a note i wrote re: charlotte and her experience with sleep / victor hugo's description of an octopus in Les travailleurs de la mer (1866) / my (brief) description of how i envision and characterize the void in char's lore

#and yes this still tracks w how char fears lakes and not the ocean #it's a complicated relationship but char isn't terrified of the void #it's a pain and very much the root of 90% of her problems but she doesn't fear it #she's found a balance with it; built a rapport with it; has become impressive in its “eyes”#ok im gonna go now bye <3
