Oooooh lord, I though that this was going to be easy but in fact this is going to be a really hard one. Just letting you know I won't really be able to rank these in terms of significance very well but here goes.
1. Tavastia choke. That killed me when I first saw it, like jesus christ man that was a religious experience I swear.
2. Ajde bejbi/Kris honey, I know that these were two separate occasions but they both caused my brain to freeze for a second. Especially 'ajde bejbi' cause as @reserved-fruit explained in the comments here, it is not a usual thing to say to your friends.
3. This press conference interview for Eurovision. They look like the absolute most lesbian, pretty, madly in love couple I have ever seen. I love this moment thing so much, even now 7 months later I keep coming back to it again and again.
Honourable mention to: All the times they have been on their knees for each other, and whatever this was here
Sources: I'm so sorry but I couldn't find the sources for the first and last images, please tell me if they're yours, thank barve_oceananna for the video
ppl get mad at Hugh for playing off the romance but you gotta understand that actors internalize the characters, they are playing those characters, so of course he'd have the same perspective as Will lol and of course Mads would have the same as Hannibal. one doesn't want to face the truth and the other is aware of it and accepts it.
Part 6 of the Linked Universe Winged Au! After many requests this time around we've got our Veteran, Legend!
<<< Previous Next >>>
As always we have to start off with a bird fact, so did you know that male White-Winged Crossbills have unpigmented barbules that mask their red color and are what make them appear pink in the fall? However, as these barbules wear off, the bright red is able to show through leaving them a brilliant red in the spring and summer!
Anyways, I found this fact to be very interesting especially considering Legend's adventure throughout Oracle of Seasons. Just the mental image of his plumage slightly shifting with the constant changing of the seasons was very funny to me and I couldn't NOT make it canon. Plus, I enjoy making his life more difficult than it already is because I also headcanon that when he was younger, his wings were constantly stuck in a half molted state because white-winged crossbills usually molt in the fall. In other words, turns out messing around with seasons and time has consequences so he was a very scruffy, fluffy looking kid growing up.
As for how he looks and acts now, he has many similar characteristics and behaviors of a White-Winged Crossbill. For example, he is a very strong flier, and his unique way of flying has given him a very aggressive and abrupt fighting style both on the ground and in the air. His style of fighting is especially effective in forests with a lot of trees because it allows him to dart between foliage and foes alike.
While his flight and fighting styles were influenced by the sheer number of quests he has gone on as well as his young age when he began, other characteristics and behaviors of his were also influenced as well. For example, when he was still just a kid thrown into his first adventure where just about everything in the world was bigger than him, he learned to bristle and fluff his feathers to appear bigger and more threatening to enemies. While somewhat effective at the time, nowadays it means he still has the unconscious habit of doing it whenever he is irritated or embarrassed.
In addition to his tendency to "poof" when upset, he also has a habit of picking at and pulling out his own feathers when especially stressed. He picked up this habit mainly because of his constant molting as a child but then continued it as he was went on more and more adventures. Doing it is second nature to him now, but it's a bad habit he's actively trying to break by fiddling with his rings instead. It's also part of why he's so insistent about preening the others because helping them quite literally stops him from pulling out his own feathers.
Anyways! I could go on, but that's all for now folks! Thank you again for all your support and kind messages! I really treasure them and they are always the highlight of my day! As always, feel free to let me know who or what you would like to see next! Thank you all again!
Bonus Doodle Feat. Wind taking a photo of Wild taking a photo of Legend inspired by this masterpiece:
I was inspired by early concepts of tfp Starscream...HE WAS SO BUFF DANG truly a second in command. I adore the design they went with, but buff Screamer just hits different ykyk
He was too op ig, he wouldn't let Megatron's sadism slide and would kick his ass instead of whining to Knockout lol
WIP. How to make baby boy look not so baby boy without just throwing some hair on his head and calling it a day? I swear Mikey is the hardest for me to draw since his roundness to corner facial ratio is so dang subtle. At least I'm finally studying the poor guy. Forgive me Mikey!
