Uffff.... The chemo's really been messing with my head today - my eye is totally off so that I can't tell what's right or get proportions or anything. I binned a few drawings in a row, which I very rarely do - shredded one completely. Anyway, I went back to basics - scrubbing a chunk of willow charcoal on newsprint, and managed to get something that looked like it was going to work, then refined it with the charcoal pencils. So here's dimpled Dean. I like him. And thank fuck I can actually still draw. (Very grumpy, though.)

woke up to see another hermit has been chased off tumblr by people being absolute disrespectful dickheads. great /s

iva hello…. jealous james AND reg but get thissss they’re playing a game of chicken to see who gives in first.

james is flirting with frank and regulus is sitting on bartys lap at some house party. i just know they have hate sex after

(the way evan would be seething lmao)

sisi WOW… ur mind im kissing it rn.

they’re keeping aggressive eye contact while they’re doing it too. like regulus is running a hand through barty’s hair, planting a kiss on the side of his lips and watching james tense before he's laughing harder at frank's jokes and grabbing his bicep. they’re both so stubborn that reg has his tongue half down barty’s throat before james has his wrist in a vice grip and is pulling him off barty's lap, hard. reg stumbles off and starts to curse him out but he quickly snaps his mouth shut when he sees james—because he's fucking fuming.

Its a harsh, "why do you always have to push my fucking buttons, hm?" while james is pushing regulus into a random linen closet. He's bending him over his knee and telling reg, "if you're gonna act like a brat then i'm gonna treat you like one," before he's spanking him until his ass is mottled red and starting to purple. james is shoving a spare hand towel in between reg's teeth to muffle his moans before fucking him against the shelves. he only takes the towel out of reg's mouth so he can hear his breathy, "you, 'm yours," when james asks him who he belongs to

Hello again, same anon who sent the ask about Tang Sanzang. I can understand your view on him, but I do think what he did to the horse was out of fear (now i haven't read JTTW so I could be wrong). I do love the idea of reader being a 'big sister' figure to him. Personally I see her trying to ground/calm him when things go wrong, and offering comfort if he needs it (in his position, I'd be hella stressed out)

In the last post, I did say my Reader did let the horse beating go due to the fact there was a Tiger and no human being in any world would be chill during a situation like that.

My Reader definitely understands the situation they're in and how stressful it is. Of course, she would try to be a fair and calm influence, but she is not immune to stress and does become quite stern and angry when push enough. My Reader naturally enjoys messing with people (it's how I show affection) it's all in good fun but would tone it down if it affects him too much.

My Reader has his back whenever he needs that support, but still reserves the right to be irritated when he F's up too much

---------------------------------------------------

Reader: "Us mortals gotta look after each other, right?" *pats firmly on Tang's shoulder*

Tripitaka: *small smile* I suppose so 😌✨️

don’t cry don’t cry don’t cry don’t cry don’t cry please for the love of christ pull it together

I know that this is an act of the most extreme hubris and I expect to be struck down for it sooner or later, but what if....I attempted to write Hornblower in the style of Patrick O'Brian....

I do not see. I do not see todays upload. I cannot and will not see with my eyes. How fucking dare they take away one of my blorbos.

I hate how Ace has over 2000 works on his character tag but almost all of them are either x reader or have nothing to do with him and other characters

Don't change the gods and their personalities and their whole existence just to make yourself feel better about yourself. Don't butcher someone else from what they are just bc you hate yourself.

Lore Post: The God of Mercy, Diplomacy, and Marriage

I just came up with a story related to this Divine, and he's considered the third most powerful being in the Zone, so it would be remiss of me to go without explaining him for much longer.

The ranking of the Divine in the pantheon is based on the amount of worship they receive, and not necessarily the scope of their abilities or raw power. This is why Snímaid is so low ranked. Without further ado, let's dig into the overview of this Divine.

The God of Mercy, Diplomacy, and Marriage Coitreb deals with all things relational in the Zone. His domain is vast enough to encompass everything from trade agreements, though the duty is shared with the King of the Gods, to managing rivalry between schools or fellowship inside families. Because every mutual agreement comes under his purview, his powers are considered vast and prayers are sent up regularly to govern everything from major agreements between regions and nations to settling petty disagreements among members of the household. The constant prayer suffices the god with power, and as the god of mercy, he acts far more often among the material realm than most of the others.

The most well regarded of the Divine among the Yetis, his worship eclipses even that of Gwrtheyrn, and he’s regarded as the true King of the Gods in Malproksime Frostiĝinta a point of tension between the scientific and magic focused realm and their Arachtalamh neighbors. (The Heraldry of House Frjósimhjøtur takes its use of Arĝenta and its symbols of interlocking knots from Coitreb the same way House Glaurung takes its use of Ora and the Dragon Head’s meaning from Gwrtheyrn.)

Outside the bastion of scientific progress and diplomacy at the edge of the Local Zone, his most ardent worshipers exist among lawyers, international diplomats, and civil servants of all kinds. No one is more pressed to keep the peace than the army of forgotten middle ghosts keeping their countries running behind the scenes and between the glories of war and battle.

Of course, since he rules marriage as well, the God sees worship by everyday people on the occasion, though he shares some of this with Lúthgáir. His name is spoken at every jumping of the broom in tiny villages and state wedding affairs to solidify treaties between major powers. He is even a standard part of the vows throughout the Zone, especially for those marriages that take place for political instead of romantic reasons. This is because he is believed to have the power to make contracts binding, and every being wants a long-lasting marriage.

Another common site of worship is far more morbid. Invoked in criminal sentencing around the Zone by the guilty, he sees devote worship among those in long term imprisonment or who are subject to be executed. Indeed, the final rites for capital punishment in many areas of the Zone include both prayers to Aodh to guide the spirit to the Beyond and to the God of Mercy to forgive them of their sins or relieve them of suffering.

He is also invoked by prisoners of war or when soldiers intend to surrender. Using his name as a means to deceive in times of war or refusing to give quarter to surrendering fighters is one of the few ways to invoke the wrath of the divinely equanimous god.

Finally, even though Endings are rare and dangerous curses or illnesses even more so, the last area of common prayer is for those with terminal illness or whom are seriously ill, so that they may be shown mercy and relieved of pain.

can I go 30 seconds without hacking like an old man thanks

fat people: just existing

some idiot: i’m about to ruin someone’s day

in finland our biggest pride event canceled their partnership with our biggest political party because the party hadn't voted in agreement about our new trans law (to allow self-ID and remove requirement of being sterile (yeah really)) (the party had ruled it a “matter of conscience” and abt 1/3 voted against), and now our news are full of the members of that party being pissed abt it and our likely next prime minister commenting how this is “sad and offends many people”, and ppl are flocking to lament and mock how pride is so intolerable and how u have to have 100% correct opinions in order to participate and i'm
