A constant thing that I tend to run into irl, whenever I meet a new person who also has an interest in the occult and/or magic, is the immediate assumption that they are more educated or experienced than myself.

It's like- guys, maybe, just maybe, in the era of the internet and information, perhaps we can give people the benefit of the doubt? That they might be educated? At least until they've shown otherwise?

Not every new person you meet is a "baby witch" and, even if they are, not every "baby witch" is looking for help from some random practicioner they just met.

#this kinda goes back to what i was saying about wisdom #its something that happens a lot #idk how many times people have given me advice without #you know #actually knowing what my practice is #or how it works #or who i work with #once had someone offer to be my 'witch mother'#she was two years older than me #anyways #this is called 'playing the sage'#and its not a particularly fun game #magic #folk magic #spirituality #magic practitioners #witchblr #rant

#sorry i saw someone say sonic and tails dont see eachother as family at all again and it annoyed me #this isnt even all of the times theyve said it this is just a bunch of stuff i remembered off the top of my head #and also sonic has called tails little bro SO many times across different media that it would be impossible to track them all down #but i tried to include stuff from different media to show that this isnt a thing thats exclusive to one continuity or one period of time #because those are arguments i see people use to prove theyre not brothers #but even if it WAS something that is mentioned a lot in earlier sonic media and not so much in recent stuff.#not mentioning something as often anymore doesnt automatically make it non canon?? especially if theres no new info contradicting it #sonic frontiers spoilers #the sage picture probably looks irrelevant to people who havent played frontiers #but she was talking about sonic and tails there which is why i included it #also i put that aosth clip instead of screenshots from it because i didnt think a couple screenshots would do it justice #you really have to see the whole thing

Now I'm thinking about the "Save The Gerudo, Save The World" AU again.

Twinrova kills Nabooru in front of Link, and that's when he finally realizes that all the Sages are dead. They're all dead. He didn't know—his body may be an adult's but he is still a child, he didn't understand, and nobody had the heart to tell him outright in the very limited time they got to meet him after he defeated the monsters that killed them. In Ocarina of Time, in order for a Sage to fully awaken to their power, they have to die.

Link knows that Ganondorf's main motivation, prior to all this, was the safety of his people. He's off the deep end by the time Link is an adult, but it's possible that in the past, seven years ago, there's still enough Gerudo King in there to be swayed.

Navi says this is the worst idea ever. Link says he has to try.

So Link makes the decision to go back in time and offer himself—his allegiance, his Triforce, his life—in exchange for Nabooru's safety. Hero of Time or not, champion of Farore or not, Link is just one person; he knows he can't defeat the monster Ganondorf will eventually become while on his own and crippled with the knowledge that everyone he loves is dead. That isn't the future he's fighting for.

So he turns himself in to the Gerudo. He's brought before Ganondorf—and now he's a child, but he acts like an adult, he carries himself like someone who's been through every bit as much war as Ganondorf has—and makes his offer. Ganondorf can have whatever Link can offer him, if he saves Nabooru.

Ganondorf responds, "...What happened to Nabooru?"

And just like that, the horrible future Link was thrown into against his will is smashed to bits.

I made this stupid chart where I pretend to be a psychic based on the first character you felt really attached to when you started The Arcana and Last Legacy out of the Main 3

This is all technically roasts for myself based on the reasons why I love these characters so pls do not feel hurt feelings I post this with intentions of good fun

#last legacy #felix escellun #sage lesath #anisa anka #the arcana #Asra alnazar #Julian devorak #i always want to call him Ilya instead I call him Ilya in my mind #Nadia satrinava #i didn’t include the other guys because I have played their routes in the arcana #and there’s no other routes #in last legacy I mean #pour one out :((#autism is NOT letting me loosen my grip on last legacy #i have been hyper fixated since last November/December around finals time in school and now it’s finals again and I’m still here

@val-of-the-north made an interesting point about Shabriri tbh 🤔 When you kill Gowry (that is apparently a similar entity, just for a different outer god??), he just respawns being like "Okay are you calm? Can we talk now?", but when Shabriri is attacked, he does get hostile!

And like... right, whereas Gowry doesn't have a shortage of vessels, Shabriri presumably (!) has to value his and can't just use random people afflicted by Frenzy. But even if for one reason or another he could not just start using (already conveniently blinded, mind you!) residents of the Mountaintops after losing Yura's body, at the very least, he could calm down if he defeats Tarnished. But he stays aggroed! Despite the whole "I am immortal and the choice I am offering is the only right one, you fool" thing.

Val said it speaks a lot about what kind of person Shabriri is and I honestly agree with this. He gets pissed when his one (1) effort to convince doesn't work out instantly, not willing to wait or further negotiate. Like.. first, his way to scream "MAY CHAOS TAKE THE WORLD!" is more that of a deranged maniac, as opposed to, say, Kale (cut content dialogue) speaking it as sort or desperate mantra for eternal peace and release from existential suffering, breaking the act after a somewhat "reasonable" speech. And then this.

Basically, for a man that was manipulative enough to convince the authorities to bury a whole nation alive as heretics they were not, Shabriri has a REALLY weak capacity for keeping the facade :/ Makes me think that back then, people who saw through his shit tended to "disappear"- since, yeah, bro can't spend one (1) extra effort to convince or wait.

#yet again gowry sweep lol #he is called 'sage' for a reason xdddd #elden ring #shabriri #elden ring headcanons #elden ring observation #and maybe people that knew something was wrong about him but ALSO noticed his enemies disappeared fast-#-maybe preferred to play dumb around him #a kind of a guy no one really wants to have a business with #he'd probably only spend effort with authorities while he was still just a guy #but even then how much you wanna bet he took his anger somewhere else?

Nothing like being super into something highly visual to make me mourn my lack of artistic skills ;_;

#i'd do a million variations on the channeling the weave scene ft. gaila obviously #i was just thinking earlier about how impressed and excited larissa would be to channel the weave in that scene #communing with her goddess in such a material way!!!#but also i choose to believe that earlier #gaila is injured (she's a wizard. it's going to happen) and larissa is like: oh a thing i can help with! i'll heal you!#gaila (slightly woozy): thanks. tbh i kind of envy you for just being able to call on your god and have that power flow through you #larissa: i hadn't thought about it that way but i /am/ grateful to mystra for her favor :)#gaila: uhhhh grateful to who #larissa: not many of the temple sages are actually blessed by her so i have reason to appreciate it! let's see-#gaila: um. i. uhhh actually i'm not sure this will work #larissa: sure it will. my goddess always comes through. like so: gaila. by the power of mystra be healed!#*blast of divine power*#gaila (watching the skin of her arm heal before her eyes): that's ... i'm. very impressed.#anyway. but one of the super vivid-to-me scenarios playing out in my mind #anghraine babbles #fic talk #fic talk: gaila #anghraine whines #anghraine's gaming #pretty sure i sold my soul to larian studios #larissa x gale

Bottom left is Sage, told yall ive struggled with his design a ton haha, top left is Blake, to his right is Gwen, and under them is Viv :3

and this is what i meant by complaining abt Sage´s color scheme, bc look at my girl Viv TvT!!!!

outdated gwen and blake sketches :3

aaand ultra outdated arts :

that sketchbook doodle one was done in class as a tangled insipred OC, she holds the title of my first oc ever :´) <3

#also blair what are you doing there girl?? hahah #she currently has nothing to do with them; but she did in a long abandoned concept #take the first image as their current designs (except for sage of course :3)#my art #my ocs #sage #blake #gwen #viveka #viv #diamond fam #<3<3<3<3<3<3 #most of these guys are what i call infrastructure characters #so they dont show up in the story a whole lot; but they play integral roles

Sometimes I just get powerfully inexplicably homesick for the little desert town I lived in 2013-2015 when I was fresh out of college and in AmeriCorps!

#most people would call it ugly I think! most people would not say that it was charming or that it had a distinctive small town character #though many would agree that it was in the middle of a beautiful place #it had 6000 people and was on a highway #'downtown' was a mix of every major fast food chain and weird little small-town everything stores and very good family-owned Mexican food #there was a 135-degree difference between the hottest and coldest temperatures I ever experienced there #it rarely rained and when it did the air smelled strongly of either sage and juniper or cowshit #depending on which way the wind was blowing #there were two bars in town so if I wanted to go out I had to decide between the one where I #would inevitably see my elementary students ('family-friendly' pub) or the one where I would inevitably see a barfight #if you drove 15 minutes out of town you would come to a massive canyon where you could sit on a cliff with no one around and #play guitar as the sun set #I was only there for two years and I am a city slicker in my bones but it made its mark

chey staring directly at the wol the entire time aymeric is describing alphinaud and tataru being put on trial like sir? could you be a tad more subtle please?

#sage plays ffxiv #haurchefant de fortemps #haurchefant greystone #i'm calling him chey bc i can't seem to grasp the correct pronunciation of his full name #and for that i am truly sorry #but also he absolutely has no shame #and his enthusiasm and love for the wol is my favorite #i'm just... gonna stay here...#no need to play any further...

I've been chipping at a new oni save recently and I have to say I have gotten way less ambitious with my teleporter planet over my past few saves. In a lot of my earlier saves Id dive right in there, but nowadays I find myself ignoring the teleporter for a good while before dipping in to set up some basic utilities there before leaving again and continuing to stall lol

#rat rambles #oni posting #probably because Ive been busy coring out my starting planetoid in my more recent playthroughs #I do want to do some space travel and setting up several colonies but Im not quite sure how Im going to go about it #Ill probably need to use my teleporter planetoid to set up my rocketry program since it has an oil biome but idk #I could in theory go for a steam engine until I get a radbolt engine or a hydrogen engine set up #which honestly Im not sure which I wanna go for since I havent rly played around with either #radbolt would probably be easier to rush but hydrogen would be easier in the long term I think #its all abt the difference between getting a radbolt generation system set up safely vs getting supercoolant #now I usually tend to mostly just stick to petroleum engines but thats because I lack ambition #I could be using that petroleum for power instead #although currently my power situation is actually going pretty ok all things considered #now its a very ducktaped solution given that I am procrastinating on actually properly taming the hydrogen vent Im using for part of it #rn Im using a cool slush vent to produce coolant for the area and using that heat to warm it up enough to be filtered without freezing #but thats a very unstable solution so once I get access to better options Ill likely just fully block it off and call it good #as for my alternative power source Ive recently set up coal generators after getting my obligatory sage hatch farm set up #Im still working on automating it all but itll do it's job just fine for now #I also wanna tap into my cold brine vent soon both for potential extra coolant and for another water source #currently Im fine on water but I wanna get bristle berry farms set up soon so I just wanna be sure Ill have enough #honestly the thing Im saddest abt is that I dont have any natual gas vents #I usually like to get a gas range running quite early so the combination of no natural gas vents and no oil biome is quite saddening #like there are other ways but none that seem particularly worth it to me #anyways Im still sick and exhausted so Im gonna go to bed now #just wanted to make sure everyone knows Im alive
