I am, like, a long running proponent of the "eat something and you'll feel better" crowd and am often one of the first people to suggest "maybe it's time for a snack before I get whipped into a frenzy" but I really do resent how instantaneous it is. like it'll feel like I'm having my worst day in months and then I'll start eating and literally before I even finish I'm like oh yeah the world is beautiful

Fun History Fact: The overwhelming majority of cowboys in the U.S. were Indigenous, Black, and/or Mexican persons. The omnipresent white cowboy is a Hollywood studio concoction meant to uphold the mythology of white masculinity.

Spent world book day thinking about this Harrow the Ninth Chapter 1 Cosplay I did

[bcosiwanna]

I come to offer yet another Gideon Nav meme

[bcosiwanna]

After all, aren't we all just students of love?

Celebrating valentine's with this cupidcore/dark academia take on a student love witch! It has been too long since I wore a red lip and let me tell you I felt powerful. I'm mulling over how I'd realise this character in D&D but the system doesn't work well for enchanters in an adventuring party... So maybe a warlock with Cupid as the patron? I'm imagining a lot of charm person, suggestion, and dominate monster type spells 😂

This shoot worked out so perfectly 👼👼👼

Get thee behind me, foul fiend! After you.

Outside of a minster and surrounded by candles really was such a good spot for a shoot with the perfectly angelic Aziraphale of @bcosiwanna! The pre- Secretcon shoot tradition is a great time.

Masterpost of TLT metas

This is mostly for my own reference, as tagging doesn't seem to guarantee something being findable on Tumblr...but if you like wildly overthinking lesbian necromancers in space, enjoy!

What is a "Speaker to the Dead"?

Actually, Magnus Quinn isn't terrible at sword fighting

Imperial complicity: Abigail the First

Were the Fourth wards of the Fifth?

Abigail probably knew most of the scions as children

Magnus Quinn's very understandable anger

Fifth House necromancy is not neat and tidy

Are Abigail and Magnus an exception to the exploitative nature of cavaliership?

"Abigail Pent literally brought her husband and look where that got her" (the Fifth in TUG)

The Fifth's relationship dynamic

The Fifth's relationship is unconventional in a number of ways

The queer-coding of Abigail and Magnus' relationship

Abigail and Palamedes, and knowing in the River

Was Isaac the ward of the Fifth?

Did Magnus manage to draw his sword before Cytherea killed him? (and why he probably had to watch his wife die)

How did Abigail know she was murdered by a Lyctor?

Fifth House necromancy is straight out of the Odyssey

Overthinking John Gaius:

The one time John was happy was playing Jesus

Is Alecto's body made from John's?

Are there atheists in the Nine Houses?

Why isn't John's daughter a necromancer?

The horrors of love go both ways: why John could have asked Alecto 'what have you done to me?'

Why M- may have really hoped John was on drugs

What is it with guys called Jo(h)n and getting disintegrated? (John and Dr Manhattan)

John's conference call with his CIA handlers

Watching your friend turn into an eldritch horror

Why does G1deon look so weird? (Jod regrew him from an arm)

Augustine's very Catholic hobby (decorating skeletons)

Necromancers are not thin in a conventionally attractive way

Matching the Houses with the planets of the solar system

Why don't the Nine Houses have (consistent) vaccination or varifocals?

How would the Houses react to the deaths at Canaan House?

How does Wake understand her own name (languages over 10,000 years)

What pre-resurrection texts are known in the Houses?

There's no such thing as a 'good' necro/cav relationship

Bible studies for weird queer necromancers:

Epiphany: revealing god's child to the wider world

The Holy Innocents and the creche massacre

The Virgin Mary and Commander Wake

John Gaius and John the Baptist

[bcosiwanna]

My theory is that John knew the cav would die and manipulated it so he got the lyctor he wanted out for each of the pairings. Cristabel would have harangued John and tried to impose morality on him in a way mercy wouldn't, for example. G1deon was his best friend and most loyal servant, so of course John chose to keep him over Pyrrha, despite her hotness while also forcing G1deon to finally choose his love of John over her in the end.

While i do not believe paul is perfect lyctorhood, you know what paul does prove? That non-necromantic bodies are perfecy capable of becoming lyctors as long as some soul fuckery happens. You know what that means, right?

Ramonafication is a powerful tool in the pursuit of self love, honestly

Two run facts: this shirt dress was thrifted, and I'm a comics book girl through and through when it comes to the Scott pilgrim multiverse (but the animated series slapped)

Well Tumblr, you were a huge part of my teenage years and here I am in my 30's crawling back....

Consider this my reintroduction! I'm Becky, a cosplayer known as bcosiwanna online. I keep collecting niche cosplays and nerdy friendships and that's what I'm here to continue.

This character? Oh that's Grigoria, my D&D OC. I'm notorious for never playing human characters because I already do that on the daily 🥱

When I'm not painting myself a whole new colour, shooting photos where I look like I'm shooting someone else, or filming goofy dances at conventions you'll find me working as a Specialist Speech and Language Therapist for the NHS, walking my dog, horse riding, reading, playing video games, vibing out in museums, or combing charity shops.
