Put thee not on Silent

[ID: A 4 panel comic made of digital paintings of a zoom meeting between the knights of the Round Table.

Sir Galahad, Queen Guinevere, Sir Gawain, Sir Lancelot, Sir Bedivere, have their own individual screens, and one screen shows a conference room with King Arthur, Sir Mordred, and others who are not named.

Both Sir Lancelot and Queen Guinevere have their cameras turned off, and microphones muted, the entire time.

Panel 1 shows King Arthur with a few of his knights, with Sir Mordred brooding beside him in shadows, and a hand reaching from offscreen to steal snacks from a bowl.

Sir Galahad has his microphone muted, and is in a forest, looking up and to the side. He has brown hair up above his head and very pale skin.

King Arthur asks, "Sir Gawain, canst thou see the PowerPoint slides?"

Panel 2 shows Sir Gawain, who has brown skin, black hair, green clothes, and heterochromia, with one green eye and one dark, replies, "Verily I cannot, I think it be a miasma of the sight."

Behind him for the background is a section from the Green Knight manuscript, showing faded lettering and a green knight on a green horse standing in front of someone with a large axe while a crowd of spectators watch from the sides.

Sir Galahad's screen is now slightly motion-blurred, showing a reddragon's open mouth in front of Sir Galahad's face.

Panel 3 shows Sir Bedivere, labeled Tech Support, who wears a blue shirt and a plumed knight's helm, looking exhaustedly into the camera, pushing his helmet visor up with one hand. He is lit by blue light and has bags under his eyes, asking: "Hast thou sharest the screen?"

His background is of a library. Sir Galahad's screen is now taken up by the motion-blurred side of the dragon that is attacking him.

Panel 4 shows Sir Gawain turned slightly to the side, looking derisively at the camera, saying: "Yea, but I cannot hear Sir Galahad."

The only thing left in Sir Galahad's screen is the motion-blurred, spade shaped tail tip of the dragon chasing him.

It’s actually so ridiculous that so many authors combined Lancelot/Bedwyr, call him Bedwyr, as if they were going to draw largely on the Welsh myth… then Agravaine is there. Every. Single. Time. PICK A STRUGGLE

It’s never a good day to be Sir Kay

Context

(Pa Gur, Kay kills several lions before facing a giant cat who has a kill count of around 180 people dead) (Poem's link https://www.maryjones.us/ctexts/bbc31.html)

Here's a nice article which talks about it further in depth

The salmon he's riding on with his bf Bedivere is the Salmon of Llyn Lliw, a giant ancient salmon of wisdom, with the help of the fish they were able to rescure Mabon from prison. From Culhwch and Olwen

The story is up top!

Fate/RWBY: Remnants of Silver Omake 3; The Double Date Disaster

CRASH!!!

Jaune(crying out in wide-eyed alarm as he gets thrown out the window of a restaurant in Vale, manifesting his blue and silver Knightly Servant attire as he sails through the air): AAAHHH!!!

Jaune(as he face-plants on the street to bystanders’ confusion): OOF!!!

Jaune(groaning into the ground as the figure that threw him threw him out steps through the broken window shrouded in red lightning): Of all the people I expected to face off against as a Servant…

Jaune(pushing himself back into his feet as he glares at the figure who dons silver and red armor): I did not expect YOU.

Jaune(as the man before him stares at him with a copy of his own face): Mordred…

(Artwork is not mine)

Mordred(lunging at the Demi-Servant with Clarent raised for a slash): I’LL SHOW YOU FOR DENYING ME MY BIRTHRIGHT!!!

Jaune(quickly raising Excalibur[Proto] up to block the attack): CAN’T WE JUST TALK ABOUT THIS?!?!?!

Mordred(pushing the blue knight back as bystanders pull out their scrolls and start recording them): LIKE HELL!!! I’M GONNA KILL YOU FATHER!!!

Within the restaurant;

Ruby(wearing a fancy red dress, staring at her flustered and alarmed white-haired friend in shock): Not only are you also a Master…

Ruby(as the sound of Jaune and Mordred’s swords clashing repeatedly can be heard from outside): But you summoned the son Jaune had in his previous life…

Ruby(as Weiss blushes the same red as her cape): AND MADE HIM YOUR BOYFRIEND?!?!?!

Weiss(covering her face with her hands as Mordred’s angry yells can be heard from outside): So embarrassing…

Ruby(her silver eyes going wide in horrifies realization): Oh Oum…You’re dating my future step-son…

Weiss(crying out in embarrassment as Jaune and Mordred both land devastating punches on each other’s faces): PLEASE DON’T PHRASE IT LIKE THAT!!!

Elsewhere;

Gareth(staring at the TV with her younger sisters in confusion): Hey mom, dad?

Bedivere(turning his daughters in confusion): Yes sweetie?

Lily(pointing at the TV and making their mom’s eyes widen in alarm mid-sip of her wine): Why is big bro fighting a red version of himself?

Artoria(spit-taking her wine in shock at her son’s opponent): PFFFFT!!!

Gareth(hand on her chin in thought as their mother faints right then and there to their father’s alarm): Say, doesn’t that red guy’s armor kinda look like Garnet’s?

sir bedwyr for @jewishlancelot ❤️ thank you for commissioning me!

[gingersnaptaff]

who are the main characters in welsh arthurian mythos?

Hi anon! You know, I looked at this question and just fuckin DIED with GLEE! Ehdhdjdhdjd I LOVE SHIT LIKE THIS!!!!! SHDJDJDH

First off, Arthur is pretty big. He's less a king and more of a warlord, but there's still a lot of cultural reverence for him in Welsh things. Seriously, Henry VII - a notable faux-Welshman - named his firstborn son Arthur purely because he was going to be Prince of Wales. Also, in Culhwch and Olwen his retinue has TWO Welsh GODS in it - Manawydan and Pryderi (my beloveds.) Idk what they're doing in it but I am inordinately pleased that they are there.

Also, Uther Pendragon / Uther Ben. Taliesin wrote a poem about him which is super fun. (Also, oddly enough Taliesin himself HAS been linked into Arthurian legends on multiple occasions. He's also another Arthur-type in that he's still regarded as tooling the line between mythical and real.)

Gwenhwyfar is also important even though she takes a back seat. Speculation is rife about whether she had a quest/myth about her (sorta like Culhwch and Olwen) and also her name means 'white phantom!' BRING IT BACK. I, for one, think she definitely did have a quest attributed to her in which Arthur had to do something to get her hand in marriage but idk WHAT.

Also, she's a GIANT!!!!!!!! EJDJDKDKDKD

Gwalchmai is also Super Important. There's speculation as to whether he was a mythical character who got implanted into the mythos or if he was always Atthur's nephew. Basically, he's a giant and he kills giants. Seriously, he's CONSTANTLY killing giants in the mythos. Plus he is called 'Gwalchmai Golden / Silver-tongued' in poetry too. In the Mabinogion, he's very often the one to soothe discord between the other knights so he's very diplomatic too.

Cai and Bedwyr, obviously! They come as a pair. Do Not Separate. Now, Cai is sometimes also seen to be a giant but his dad is Cynyr Ceinfarfog who was a real king. He ruled Dyfed and was the dad of Saint Non and, therefore, grandad to SAINT DAVID. (Wales' patron saint!) So Cai, like Arthur, has a saintly lineage. Before the French Romances shifted his character into the more recognisable Kay, Arthur's grumpy seneschal, Cai was a warrior of great renown. And literally superhuman. Like, nobody would received from.a blow from his sword, he could brave fire and water like nobody else, he has the ability to go nine nights and days without sleep or the need to breathe. He's a ledge.

Now, Bedwyr! Again he's a great warrior and ONE-ARMED. He's called Bedwyr Bedrydant (Bedwyr of the Perfect Sinew) and he's HOT SHIT. Seriously, he's like the most beautiful Knight in Arthur's court. The 10th-century poem 'pa gur' says that assailants 'fell by the hundred / before Bedwyr of the Perfect sinew ... fighting with Garwlwyd/ furious with sword and shield.' (Also, BTW Garwlwyd is possibly a werewolf.)

They have to put up with SO MUCH SHIT from Arthur's escapades it's ridiculous. They had to convince Arthur not to intervene in a King abducting a princess and carrying her back to his court, ffs. Give them a HOLIDAY. WITH SALMON TAXIS.

Now, I would say Merlin BUT he is added later into the mythology. He isn't there straight off. But he is Welsh. He's FUN. He was apparently based on Myrddin Wyllt. He went mad, and lived in a forest. His bestie was a king who died.

Now, I also think Owain, and Geraint on account of their having stories written about them but they're two kings who got folded into the mythos a bit later. Urien (Owain's dad) is another example.

Also, Macsen Wledig too. But again writers melded him in later. And I mean this in the sense that he and Arthur share similarities in how they're perceived in Welsh culture.

Anyways, anon, I hope this helps. I'm probably forgetting a TONNE of characters (Peredur, for one.) But I Don't want to bore you or make anybody trawl through this unwillingly so I shall stop! Hopefully, this helps! Thank u for the question!!!!

Knights of the Round Table

A selection of my random faves, ft. Kay and Bedivere gossiping about the new recruits, Dinadan and Palomides debating the point of courtly love, the Orkney brothers (Gareth, Gaheris, Agravaine mid-curse, and Gawain) and Lancelot and Galehaut putting the ro in bromance

[kulttuurinkurittama]

Sunrise

Being self indulgent with mixed media, never mind that I think both of them wake up before the rooster farts for it's cute. Also finally got the marker colour for Bedwyr's skin colour that ran out like months ago. Unfortunately now I ran out of a colour I use for shading Kei's skin. Oh well life is a cabaret and I had fun at least.

Of course, none of the later French characters - Lancelot, Bors, Galahad, Palamedes, Dinadan, etc. - made it to Avalon or the Enchanted Cave. It's the older tradition characters who have a chance.
