Ghaznavid sultan Mahmud (r. 998-1030 CE) and his forces attacking the fortress of Zaranj in 1003 CE. Jami al-Tawarikh, 1314 CE. Jāmiʿ al-Tawārīkh (lit. 'The Compendium of Chronicles') is a work of literature and history, produced in the Mongol Ilkhanate. Written by Rashid al-Din Hamadani (1247–1318 CE) at the start of the 14th century, the breadth of coverage of the work has caused it to be called "the first world history". It was in three volumes and published in Arabic and Persian versions.

Rewind the Timeline AU

Warning! Light bleeding

Author’s note : Here’s the partial design for the Rewind the Timeline AU! Bill Cipher, reborn a human, forced to survive alongside the Human civilization and on a mission to regain his strength and take over the world. He will be the main reason for anachronisms and the spike of vocabulary usage with words like “yeet”.

There are some gray areas in the timeline since Bill would be either hiding away from the human civilisation or not changing his aliases, but I will later finish drawing the missing designs which will fill some crucial spots in the story (e.g.: 1950s, when Bill will try to reclaim the name ‘Silas Birchtree’ after finding out that there was a human cult leader going by that moniker who had lots of devotees worshiping him in his triangle form.)

This is both the most and least “compatible with TBOB” story idea I had so far, although I haven’t read the book in question yet.

Here are two extra drawings :

left: Bill C. in Gravity falls, during the portal building operation, in blond. (I don’t know where his crack scar went , I guess I must’ve deleted it by accident)

right: William *Bill* C. in college during a party (ooooh boy, that guy will get drunk, hook up with Ford and have many regrets-> namely developing serious feelings for Stanford and seeing his plans of world conquest crash and burn)

— -x- —— -x- —— -x- —

Afterparty: (Bill dragged Ford to a party after they were done with their session, and partied a little too hard)

Bill, extremely tipsy, sitting on the bed with Ford: Si-*HIC* Sixer—lets do terrible things…anatomically, like humans do. I’ll let you calculate my angles with trigonometry—-

Ford, slightly less drunk: * stares at him blankly, slowly feeling his cheeks flame up* Wha—NO! Uh… maybe later ? When we both have a cleared head? How about instead—Oh, while we’re here, can I see your eyes? You never take off your sunglasses, so I’m curious about what they really look like—-

Bill, now blushing madly, clutches the sides of his face protectively: NO! I’ve-*HIC!* They look awful , I do-*HIC!*n’t think you’d like them…

Ford, leans in and carefully plucks Bill’s hands away, removing the glasses: * his eyes widen in surprise* Oh!

Bill: …Paint incident , I swallowed yellow paint as a kid.

Ford:…

Bill: Okay, okay!I-I got jaundice--

Ford: Bill—

Bill: *now panicking * AHAHA-It’s a birth defect, TOTALLY not a sign of being reborn as a demon in human form—(Internally: I’m a creature beyond human understanding, why do I need to answer to anyone? I look fine, my eyes are normal!) Ahhh, Sixer will you cut it out? Don’t look, dONT LOOK! * tries to pull his shirt over his face*

Ford: *looks at him in awe* But you’re so pretty, why hide them at all ? It’s like I’m looking at two stars- or suns- Wait, suns are stars. Or are they? They are, right? * scratches his head* Holy Moses, I should’ve not taken so much to drink, I don’t usually go to parties—

Bill: *turns completely red*… Give me ba-*HIC!* Back my glasses— *Pats the entirety of Standord’s face, retrieves his sunglasses from Ford’s hand and places them back onto his own nose, grumbling* You’re a stup— *HIC!* Hateyouformakingmefeelstuff.

There is a lot to tell about the art fair TEFAF, one of the most important in Europe. Good news: women artists are on the rise. They are more prominently shown, and seem to sell well. But there is so much more to see and to tell (and to buy... )...
