"Oh...it was just a dream..."
[ID: A Scum Villain Comic. All characters drawn in chibi style. Image one depicts Disiciple!Luo Binghe curled up with his head in Plant!Shen Yuan's lap. SY's head is not visible, but one of his hands is carding through LBH's hair. LBH appears to be asleep with a serene smile as they relax in the grass. Image two depicts LBH turning his head to look up at SY as he blearily wakes up, some wounds and his huadian are now visible. Image three depicts a slightly blurry SY looking down at LBH with a bright smile. A speech bubble connecting to him shows squiggles as if whatever he's saying can't be made out. Another speech bubble of LBH's has him saying "A'Yuan?" Image four cuts to a darker atmosphere with Gongyi Xiao taking SY's place in the frame. He is covered in various bloodstains and wounds, with some of the cloth of LBH's robes wrapped around one of his eyes and torso. He looks down at LBH with a concerned, tired look as he says "Luo-shidi?" as if trying to wake him up. End ID]

Alive Beetlejuice AU that I am rotating in my brain rn. He is so so bad at acting human, he doesn't even bother looking the part and he has no idea how much money is worth.
#beetlejuice#beetlejuice musical#betelgeuse#art#digital art#fanart#The Whole Being Alive Thing AU#He doesnt give out his real name to randos cause its annoying when ppl talk about him behind his back and he can feel it#Hes known as the weird 'demon' guy whos always in costume for some reason and apparently has absurd amounts of money to spend#(Hes literally just conjuring up money its terrible for the economy but great for the minimum wage workers hes overpaying)#Sometimes he will visibly use demonic powers in front of people but when they ask about it he just says they're special effects#Eventually he gets the FBI called on the house and I can only imagine things go very poorly from there

CLOACA CREW RERUN
#i really like these three together#blade is the beating gem in the centre of it all. he has an earring pal on either side#they r so............ hole#(do not think about the schrodingers hole that is blade's automaton handcrafted butt)#i remember when this event first ran#i believe i was rather sulky at the appearance of SR yakumo#not just because it's SR yakumo. and it's generally yakumo#but mostly because it meant that there would be no yokai triple threat event#because the way the chars were lining up in their event gaps... oh the delusional hope i held#but thanks to the quick thinking of zookeeper au conjurers#i realised... that i may not have a puppyfoxsnake event . no.#but i have something with its own charm. its own magic. and that is the cloaca havers together in One Event#pissing together holding hands in adjacent stalls#taking copious notes together. TOO MANY notes. incredibly thorough annotations with size 0.11111 font#all 6 of their observational eyeballs (8 if you count blade's glasses) will witness and archive the fall of the universe#if eiden's there we reach double digit eyeball power observations#but until eiden gets there (he is running late)#we will sit in the room with these three. and they shall connect the dots as One#puzzling investigation#nu carnival yakumo#nu carnival blade#nu carnival rei#CLOACA CREW

kell probably thought this after the essen tasch
#and yes lila may have gotten away with breaking the rules but eventually her mistakes caught back with her - don't forget it!#kell had every right being mad but it was thanks to lila's influence that he had the courage to rebel and raise his voice#maxim was scared this could happen so good job kell for making him shit himself (lila made maxim shit himself on their 1st encounter)#adsom#a darker shade of magic#kell maresh#lila bard#a gathering of shadows#a conjuring of light#tftop#the fragile threads of power#my posts 4#shades of magic

Thinking about Yusuf and Nicolò as young men again
#the old guard#kaysanova#yusuf al kaysani#nicolo di genova#siggy draws#it ain't much but it's more than i've drawn in months. i miss this sort of cartoony style. like a dreamworks movie almost lol#my brain conjured an anime ending apparently and i can't explain why#maybe they're too girly looking but i didn't feel like using reference pictures so i guess they're bishounen sdfghfds#ahh i usually have director's commentary in the tags#yusuf is probably around 23-25 and nico is 19-22? though i can't say confidently that yusuf would be able to grow a full beard at 23#but maybe he can maybe he's just that powerful#they're either very sad and lonely or very pensive. or both. maybe they're longing for something more... maybe a true love#i also dk what these clothes are. yusuf has some good clothes on. is probably flourishing as a merchant but still longs for More#nicolo is wearing... a tunic? but it could be a thin gambeson instead. maybe he's learning how to use a sword#i try to capture their best assets in this doodly style: yusuf's eyelashes and cute ears and weirdly shaped eyebrows#and nicolo's nose and heavy brow and the fact that he has almost no lips from the side lol

OK okokok... gonna put this 'I just woke up' thought out there because this is tumblr and what else is it for? Someone has probably already said this and I haven't seen it, but whatever. I will throw it out anyway.
SO... Gale. We've all seen the posts where people quote the Gale lines about being naturally gifted with magic as a baby, a prodigy etc. and then point out that this is sorcerer behaviour.
BUT, what if... you're all right and it is sorcerer behaviour. BUT the orb feeds on weave/magic right? And sorcerers are born with innate magic... so what if he was born a sorcerer, then trained as a wizard, but the orb consumed his sorcerous magic. And that's why he's not as powerful as he once was, because, unbeknownst to him, all this time, he's been using that natural sorcerous connection to make accessing the weave easier. And now that's gone. Eaten up. Destroyed forever by the Netherese void.
And that's part of what's causing him pain. Because an instrinsic part of himself has been taken away. And he feels it like a phantom limb. Maybe he thinks it was actually connected to his relationship with Mystra, rather than a part of him, and that adds to his sense of loss from that relationship.
What if the first magic item Gale fed to the orb was himself and he doesn't even realise it?
#Baldur's Gate 3#BG3#Gale of Waterdeep#Baldur's Gate 3 spoilers#BG3 spoilers#Gale Dekarios#I looked up 5e sorcerer subclasses for this#because none of the ones I could think of would work for Gale#and I did not realise that one of the Aberrant Mind sorcerer origins is:#You were implanted with a mind flayer tadpole but the ceremorphosis never completed.#And now its psionic power is yours. When you use it your flesh shines with a strange mucus.#LOL!#How did I not know about this?#All origin characters and Tavs are Aberrant Mind sorcerer multiclasses in game and they don't even realise it#That one doesn't work pregame though I think it's hilarious#Is this why the game stops at L12? Because all the other levels are taken up by secret sorcerer levels?#but there's another origin option for Aberrant Mind that might work for Gale:#As a child you had an imaginary friend that looked like a flumph or a strange platypus-like creature.#One day it gifted you with psionic powers which have ended up being not so imaginary.#which works so well given Gale's habit of conjuring friends for himself#Storm sorcery - given his name this one's thematically nice - also it's adorable to imagine baby Gale flying around the nursery#Divine Soul is a maybe but do we really want to tie him to the gods more than he already is?#I don't think Shadow/Clockwork/Lunar would work for him

CURRENTLY READING APRIL 2025
A Conjuring of Light by VE Schwab
Finally, am I right? I LOVED A Darker Shade of Magic, okay. LOVED it. I love Lila, and Kell, and Holland. Loved Schwab's writing in Vicious, and The Archive, and This Savage Song. I put off reading book two because of who I am as a person, but put off reading this because. Well. I didn't enjoy A Gathering of Shadows all that much. Enough so that I donated my spare copies of the series and only kept these with the fanart inside. I am, admittedly, at the time of writing this, nearly 75% into the book, so I definitely do have Opinions, but I'm hoping the last quarter can surprise me in some way. Show me why the entire series had such an influence on the reading community for so long. Especially since most people don't even MENTION Holland, which is a CRIME.
#bookbird babbles#snapshots#adsom#a darker shade of magic#a conjuring of light#a gathering of shadows#acol#agos#shades of magic#books#booklr#book photography#book photo#its Fine its Whatever its Mostly Unnecessary#my hot take is this series shouldve been a stand alone#and iirc it was SUPPOSED to be but publisher wanted More so she wrote More#which! good for her!#i am tentatively interested in threads of power though#maybe as a library read and not a buy now read lol#the world is neat the magic is neat the characters are neat#so why doesnt it all come together 😭

2023 books a darker shade of magic by v.e. schwab (reread)
Magic was a living thing---that, everyone knew---but to Kell it felt like more, like a friend, like family. It was, after all, a part of him (much more than it was a part of most) and he couldn't help feeling like it knew what he was saying, what he was feeling, not only when he summoned it, but always, in every heartbeat and every breath. He was, after all, Antari.
