as you might have seen, I dropped the official announcement that there are going to be five new romances throughout larkin. three of which you already kind of knew about, but i wanted to officially introduce them to you tonight! while there is art in the process of being made for all of them, i used my very limited mood board making skills to put together little pieces to give you an idea of what each character looks like/their aesthetic/their vibes.

photo one // miss ethel jackson (bisexual) (she/her) (faceclaims for art purposes: ayo edibiri)

a one-eyed sharpshooter from texas, ethel jackson is the second in command of the notorious ward gang, an advisor to the gang's leader Cassidy, a mother to her son Arthur, and an ex-lover to one Miss Rose Holloway. she is working hard to fill the vacancy left in the gang by the late Miss Caroline Ward--she wants to help her best friend Cas recover from the loss of his sister--but she also wants to do what's best for the gang (and she's not so sure Cassidy continuing to lead is exactly that.)

photo two // adam (straight) (he/him) (faceclaims for art purposes: matthew mconaughey as rustin cohle in true detective)

believing himself to be the First Vampire, the mirrored man described in the Abrams Family Bible, Adam has aligned himself with the Rateliff Fellowship, leading the cult from the shadows in the canyons of Nevada. Thousands of years old, he's walked the earth long in search of his Eve, ready to reclaim his rightful spot in the garden.

photo three // cassidy alan ward (bisexual) (he/him) (face claims for art purposes: alan ritchson)

leader and founder of the notorious band of outlaws, the Ward Gang, Cassidy has brought his people through hard times and even harder times, but with the murder of his twin sister Caroline, he's camped the gang just outside of Larkin, determined to wage a war on the people he believes murdered her: The House Sokolov.

photo four // reyes (bisexual) (she/they) (face claims for art purposes: alexa demie as maddie perez in euphoria)

the resident vampire of the ward gang, reyes is essentially their tank. no one has ever walked a way alive from a fight with her--part of the reason the Wards have survived as long as they have is because of Reyes' presence among their ranks. but they're harboring a secret--one they frequently pray over in their long held tradition of catholic guilt.

photo five // montero moreau (bisexual) (he/she/they) (no fcs at the moment but if you have any suggestions I'd love to hear them :))

you've hunted down and killed Montero's coven in Saint Laurent. You've made them look like a fool. They want you dead. And they'll go to the ends of the earth to make sure that happens, all in order to get back within the good graces of their coven's matriarch (and Mont's (sometimes) ex-lover) Daphné Moreau.

Hello there! Arch here, for you-might-guess-what.

So, iirc I asked a while back about the names of some jobs related to horses and such. Currently, I'm wondering if you know any specific or interesting names for things towed by horses?

Things towed by horses. You've got carriages and chariots, travois, wagons, caravans, plows, sleds, logs, trollies... To be honest I'm not a driver. However I did do a quick Wikipedia search and there are a bunch of very, very specific terms. Also, horses pull in specific patterns, and each of those patterns has a name as well. You have tandem pulling, pair pulling, troikas, unicorns, four abrest, 4 in hand, 6 in hand, ect.

Here are some driving vehicles:

Barouche: an elegant, high-slung, open carriage with a seat in the rear of the body and a raised bench at the front for the driver, a servant.

Britzka: A long, spacious carriage of four wheels, pulled by two horses.

Cariole: A light, small, two- or four-wheeled vehicle, open or covered, drawn by a single horse.

Chaise: A light two- or four-wheeled traveling or pleasure carriage, with a folding hood or calash top for one or two people.

Charabanc: A larger wagon pulled by multiple horses.

Ekka - a one horse cart of India, Pakistan and Bangladesh.

Fiacre: A form of hackney coach, a horse-drawn four-wheeled carriage for hire.

Fly: A horse-drawn public coach or delivery wagon, especially one let out for hire.

Phaeton: a light-weight horse-drawn open carriage (usually with two seats); or an early-nineteenth-century sports car

Sulky: a very light two-wheeled cart for one person, especially used for harness racing.

Surrey: A popular American doorless, four-wheeled carriage of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, usually two seated for four passengers.

Tanga: a light horse-drawn carriage used for transportation in India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh.

Tarantass or Tarantas: A Russian four-wheeled horse-drawn vehicle on a long longitudinal frame.

Tilbury: A light, open, two-wheeled carriage, with or without a top

Troika: a sleigh drawn by three horses harnessed abreast. Occasionally, a similar wheeled vehicle.

Vardo (gypsy wagon): a vardo is a traditional horse-drawn wagon used by English Romani Gypsies.

Victoria: a one-horse carriage with a front-facing bench seat. The body was slung low, in front of the back axle. Driven by a servant.

There are many more than I've listed here, these are just the ones that caught my eye.

“the land had the tendency to swallow one whole without warning. the immensity of it was humbling to the soul and nearly incomprehensible to the eye. standing in the midst of it was the closest i had ever been to eternity—it had no end, and i feared i would never escape it.”
