The Messenger: the Story of Joan of Arc by Luc Besson (1999)
JEANNE What’s complicated about it? All you have to do is do what you're told—what could be simpler than that? I'm the drum on which God is beating out his message—beating so loudly it's bursting my ears—but you're all so full of your own voices, you're deaf to His!

LBAF & Etymology etc
Happiest of Name Days to Vicky. Here is a little treat for you @fangirlingismygame because I love you so. 💙
There is a tradition started by Diego and Cristina in the Rosales family where the children are named after the letter A. Cami and Theia were almost named Athena and Aurora respectively.
Gwen was named by Lance as such because Lancelot and Guinevere is one of the first love stories David taught Lance.
Joan and Atlas don’t have a middle name. Cami and Arjun’s middle names are Rosales and Iris’ middle name is Jazmín.
Iris was named after the particular flower because it’s the flower Mallory left over Selena’s ‘grave’ when she buried her under the snow in LBAF IV. Gabriel picked it because it’s the flowers that helped them find and save Selena during that day.
While Joan was named after a combination of Jonathan and Julian, she is also named after Joan of Arc - who is in fact considered a national and feminist hero in France.
The name Madeleine derives from the biblical character Mary Magdalene.
It's mentioned that Joseph and Madeleine are the 'It Couple' in the Clave. Their ship name used to be Belleheart (Bellefleur + Goldheart) meaning beautiful heart.
Régine’s middle name was going to be Davina, a female variant of the name David. Madeleine and Joseph kept it as secret to reveal it to David after she was born, but Madeleine ended up not naming her daughter that way.
The name Silverstone (Lance and Arthur’s school) is based on a Formula 1 Grand Prix in the England.
Harry’s surname Anh (Vietnamese) means intellectual and bright.
Arthur names all the animals he cares for and brings home after characters from his school plays and favourite musicals.
The Lightwood-Bane, because of Max and David’s mundane wedding and now mundane life, is one of the only names that is registered and documented accordingly to mundane law. It means mavid family can vote in mundane elections - among other things.
Prince of Darkness is a name actually used to refer to Lucifer in Manichaeism (a former major religion during the the 3rd century). Prince of Darkness, in LBAF, was inspired by the Shakespearean quote in King Lear (Act 3 Scene 4) “The Prince of Darkness is a gentlemen” hinting that devil will disguise himself as a good man in order to deceive you.
The Crimson King, in several interpretations, refers to a malevolent and evil force - including in Stephen King’s Dark Tower Series.
Both Iris and Hermes are names of two famous greek gods both known for being messengers.
Hermes last name Cain is similar to most warlock names - single syllable and has a dark/sad meaning. Cain refers to ‘first murderer’ from the bible after Cain and Abel.
Everyone in the family pronounces Lance’s name with the British pronunciation (David was adamant about using it) while everyone in his school (including Harry) uses the American pronunciation.
The only people (whom he knows) who don’t refer to Arthur as AJ are David and Kincaid.
Joan’s dog’s full name is Oliver Twist - named after a famous fictional character like all Herondale/Fairchild pets.
Other Max no longer goes by Lightwood-Bane and has a different surname in the Other Timeline (his present/our future).
Arjun is named after an infamous archer in Indian mythology.
Before Lance found about Kincaid’s destiny, Crimson King used to be one of his favourite bands - they���re a famous rock band from the 1960s and 70s.
And finally, Lance and Arthur were the names I had picked out for my own children, but I gave it to Mavid because I love them so much and wanted my unborn, imaginary children to have two wonderful parents.
#okay bye#also probs no lbaf update tomorrow yall but will keep you posted on Wednesday x#lbaf#lbaf next gen#my fics#love beckons all fallen

Cumpleaños 🎂
Milla Jovovich cumple 48 años
Militza Bogdanovna Jovovich (en ucraniano: Мiліца Богдановна Йовович, en ruso: Милица Богдановна Йовович), más conocida como Milla Jovovich (Kiev, RSS de Ucrania; 17 de diciembre de 1975), es una actriz, supermodelo, directora de cine, diseñadora de moda y empresaria ucraniana-estadounidense. Nació y pasó sus primeros años en la Unión Soviética, adquiriendo posteriormente la nacionalidad estadounidense. Ha interpretado papeles en varias películas de ciencia ficción y de acción, apodada «la reina pateatraseros»
Jovovich comenzó su carrera de modelo a los once años, cuando Richard Avedon la presentó en los anuncios de Revlon, "Las mujeres más inolvidables del mundo", y continuó su carrera con otras campañas notables para cosméticos L'Oréal, Christian Dior, Donna Karan y Versace.
En 1988, tuvo su primer papel profesional en la película para televisión "Night Train to Kathmandu", y ese mismo año actuó en su primer largometraje: "Two Moon Junction". Después tuvo más apariciones en series de televisión como "Fair Exchange" (1989), y en el mismo año un papel de una jovencita francesa (en ese entonces con solo 14 años) en la serie "Married with Children", además de otros personajes en pequeñas producciones cinematográficas. Ganó notoriedad con la película romántica "Return to the Blue Lagoon" (1991), la secuela de "The Blue Lagoon".
Apareció en 1993 en "Dazed and Confused" junto a Ben Affleck y Matthew McConaughey y en el Biopic sobre la vida de Charles Chaplin "Chaplin". Posteriormente Jovovich actuó junto a Bruce Willis en la película de ciencia ficción "El quinto elemento" (1997), y protagonizó "The Messenger: The Story of Joan of Arc" (1999).
En 2002, protagonizó la adaptación del videojuego Resident Evil, que dio lugar a seis películas: "Resident Evil" (2002), "Resident Evil: Apocalypse" (2004), "Resident Evil: Extinction" (2007), "Resident Evil: Afterlife" (2010), "Resident Evil 5: Retribution" (2012) y "Resident Evil 6: The Final Chapter" (2017).
En 2003, ella y la modelo Carmen Hawk crearon la línea de ropa Jovovich-Hawk, que cesó sus operaciones a principios de 2008. En su tercera temporada antes de su desaparición, las piezas se podían encontrar en Fred Segal en Los Ángeles, Harvey Nichols, y en más de 50 tiendas en todo el mundo. Jovovich también tiene su propia compañía productora, Creature Entertainment.
Milla nació en Kiev, Ucrania por aquel entonces (Unión Soviética), única hija de Bogdan Bogdanovich Jovovic, un pediatra serbio, y Galina Loginova, una actriz de teatro rusa.
La familia paterna de Milla era adinerada, provienen de Zlopek, cerca de Pec, en la parte noroeste del valle de Dukagjini. Su bisabuelo paterno, Bogic Camic Jovovic, noble, fue cabeza del clan Vasojevici, así como oficial de la guardia real del rey Nicolás I de Montenegro; la esposa de su bisabuelo se llamaba Milica, de quien Milla recibió el nombre tiempo después. Su abuelo paterno Bogdan Jovovic fue comandante en la zona militar de Pristina, y más tarde investigó las finanzas en las áreas militares de Skopie y Sarajevo, donde descubrió el desfalco masivo de oro; fue castigado por negarse a delatar a un amigo involucrado en el crimen. Más tarde, el gobierno lo encarceló por un tiempo breve en Goli Otok por negarse a testificar. Cuando temía ser arrestado de nuevo, huyó a Albania, y más tarde se trasladó a Kiev. Una versión diferente de la historia afirma que fue él quien se llevó el oro. El padre de Milla, Bogich, se unió más tarde a Bogdan en Kiev, donde él y su hermana se graduaron en medicina
En 1980, cuando Milla tenía cinco años, su familia abandonó la Unión Soviética por motivos políticos y se mudó a Londres. Posteriormente vivieron en Sacramento (California) antes de establecerse en Los Ángeles siete meses después; los padres de Milla se divorciaron tiempo después.
Jovovich se casó con Shawn Andrews en 1992, a quien conoció durante el rodaje de "Dazed and Confused". Andrews tenía 21 años, mientras que Jovovich tenía 16; el matrimonio fue anulado por su madre dos meses después.
Poco después de la anulación, Jovovich se trasladó a Londres con su amigo y músico Chris Brenner, donde comenzó a vivir con Stuart Zender exbajista de Jamiroquai, desde 1994 a 1995.
De 1995 a 1997, mantuvo una relación con Mario Sorrenti. En Las Vegas, se casó con el director de "El quinto elemento", Luc Besson, en 1998, divorciándose un año más tarde.
Entre 1998 y 2001, se hizo amiga del joven poeta y músico, Anno Birkin, y fueron cada uno tras la inspiración detrás de muchas de sus composiciones. A Jovovich se le relacionó con Birkin justo antes de su muerte en un accidente de coche. También tuvo una relación con el guitarrista de los Red Hot Chili Peppers, John Frusciante.
El 3 de noviembre de 2007 dio a luz a su primera hija, Ever Gabo Anderson, fruto de su relación con el cineasta inglés Paul W. S. Anderson, con quien contrajo matrimonio el 22 de agosto de 2009, habiéndose conocido durante el rodaje de "Resident Evil".
El 19 de agosto de 2014, la actriz anuncio en su cuenta de Facebook que se encontraba esperando a su segundo bebe con Anderson. Su hija Dashiel Edan Anderson nació el 1 de abril de 2015.
En agosto de 2019 confirmó que está embarazada de su tercera hija tras haber sufrido un aborto espontáneo dos años antes. Su hija Osian Lark Elliot Jovovich-Anderson nació el 3 de febrero de 2020.
Milla Jovovich es trilingüe, pues habla ruso, inglés y francés.

so in case anyone was curious, this illustration is largely based on several stained glass portraits of St. Michael the Archangel slaying Lucifer (in kickass dragon form,) but especially this one (a 19th century window from Calvados, France)
A.) i Love angels in stained glass especially when the colors go crazy, this isnt the first time I've invoked them with art of Aporia and the Three Nobles, but more important B.) one day I will go off more about Aporia's angel symbolism in general but for now I gotta talk about Primo's, I gotta.
His Archangel Michael parallels make my brain spin around So fast--the Nobels are definitely supposed to effectively be robotic angels, messengers of the Apocalypse and God's (Z-one's) plan to fix the future. Primo sees himself as a loyal extension of Z-one's will, an agent of vicious justice, the 'commander' of his Ghost army. He's the android gijinka of Aporia's young adult war trauma. He's uhhh technically not alive! Meanwhile, Michael the angel is the leader of God's holy army, a military commander... and in Catholicism he's also the patron saint of death and soldiers. :^) (and. cops. cringe.) (though the Three Nobles were the heads of Sector Security for a While, huh.....) (it goes so deep it doesnt stop)
And there's the sword, of course, Michael is The angel most often depicted with a sword (sometimes a 'normal' blade, sometimes on fire, sometimes it's a spear, etc etc,) it's a spiritual weapon associated with him, created by God. And oh hey Primo what's that you got there....
Haha Ok Cool Man 👍 Sick Godsword
In the Bible it's Michael who leads the charge against Lucifer and his army of fallen angels in the battle of heaven and hell, and it's very specifically mentioned Lucifer takes on the form of a dragon during this epic clash. *the dog is, in fact, taking out the Book of Revelations*
so DEEPEST APOLOGIES TO STARDUST MY FRIEND STARDUST DRAGON for making her representative of the Literal Devil in that illustration; though, from Iliaster's point of view, perhaps of course Stardust WOULD be their draconic devil stand-in, the ace monster of Yusei, the dominant roadblock to their plans, the (you could perhaps argue) counterpart of their God's image. To Primo especially he has it Aggressively out for Stardust throughout his entire psychological obsession with Yusei. He Wants to Slay That Dragon So Bad, He Wants It as a Trophy On His Wall.
Michael also gets described and depicted very knight like in religious art and discussions, he is frequently armored; Primo also has a lot of knightly vibes imo, design and narrative wise. (And of course so does Sherry...interestingly, Sherry actually ALSO has a lot of parallels with St. Michael, including the fact she takes part in the fight against Primo's duel bot army (y'know...the Diablo :^) and a lot of her Joan of Arc invocations as a character) (that's a story for another post though) (Trey from Zexal ALSO has St. Michael parallels too imo) (but again, that's it's whole other post.) (yugioh LOVES religious symbolism like a bear loves salmon.)
it's just a very neat motif weaved throughout Primo's character!! His attitude is notoriously pretty shitty and difficult to put up with, but at his core he seems himself as a defender of sorts. God's sword. This is the path that will save the future. Tangentially, take this Alleluia verse about St. Michael:
"dreadful judgement," huh? Like... a Judgement Day? A world in peril and needing saving? Wonder who else has something to say about that and is very tunnel-vision obsessed with the notion of being the one alone to grant this safeguard...
ah :)
#ygo posting#primo 5ds#placido#dana's ygo bible study#long post /#will reblog the art itself and point out some little details too methinks....#iliasterliker9000
