Editing is fun because it means I get frames like this that I otherwise miss😌

You know, aside from everything else that happens in Hamlet, I always was most interested in Laertes and Ophelia.

I wrote a paper on this once, but I really think that if Laertes had decided to mourn instead of seek vengeance in an eternal cycle of bloody vengeance, Ophelia would’ve lived.

Why? She died drowning. Nobody bothered to keep a close enough eye on her to save her. (What if Laertes had been there? Would he have let her get that close to the river? Would he have pulled her out?)

But had Laertes actually decided to mourn with his sister and take care of the one family member he had left?

I think he could’ve saved her. (And himself. Maybe he still would’ve fought Hamlet, maybe he wouldn’t have, but he would’ve had something to lose if Ophelia was still alive.)

I think that their story at least, didn’t need to be a tragedy.

(Mind you, Laertes still should’ve gotten to hit Hamlet over the head with a shovel and bury him alive. Like okay “to be or not to be” the answer is not to be because you murdered my father and indirectly killed my sister, then told me you loved her more than I do. Like actually die.)

“Am I doing him right?”

The fact that Emily Windsnap’s grandparents are never mentioned again post Book 4, even after moving back to Brightport with her, makes me suspect they never truly reconciled ☹️ (they have so many chances to be in her life yet for some reason they aren’t )

right? At least Emily doesn't seem to suffer for it. Though they didn't seem like great parents either.

This is so lovely, and exactly what I had in my head. I love how long Ricky's hair is!

You're so talented! I love you're work!

“I never stopped loving you" {WIP}

Just the lineart, but I'm so excited I wanna post it anyway! Will color sometime later.

Oh! I just can't help myself. Starved for Mystery Incorporated content, I wanted to do fanart based on this top tier fanfic. Purposefully Silent by @orithereticent, you're the goat! In chapter 8. My favorite scene so far.

You think Ricky gives goods hugs? He's a larger fellow and the detail of him not only hugging Cassidy but lifting her off the ground to hold against him is just peak. <3 <3 <3

Wrong. They all are.

Half elf - bisexual

Changeling - lesbian

Eladrin - aromantic asexual

Winged tiefling - demisexual

I also play a level 2 twilight cleric/ level 3 chronurgy wizard, winged tiefling.

She’s real fun because she has 18 ac, plus shield so 23. Advantage and a plus 6 to initiative. And twilight sanctuary plus chronurgy shift. And she can fly.

I don’t take damage often.

I love playing a changeling in dnd because during combat she used her action and bonus action to change her appearance and her clothes (has glamoured armor) into the boss of the tavern we were in and told the guards in the other room to give her the keys and leave.

And it worked.

I love this!!! I love that Ricky's tired in every universe no matter what lol.

I need to work more on this au, but for some fun, some out of context writing I did on it. -------

Ricky flipped a dial and began playing. The notes matching the vocals with as much regularity as he could manage. 

The singing, for the first time since Ricky had first heard it, faltered. Then stopped all together. Ricky cursed. 

“Sorry,” he muttered, quickly silencing his keytar. 

“Hello?” the voice which must have been the one who was singing, asked.

“Can you hear me?” asked Ricky, surprised.

“Yes? How?” The voice asked. Ricky thought it might be a girls voice, it was higer pitched than his own was, anyway. 

“I… used a radio?” 

“... Why?” the girl asked hesitantly.  

“I… I like your singing, I wanted to tell you that I liked your singing.”

“Oh? Oh!” the girl seemed pleasantly surprised, “thank you!” 

“You’re welcome!” Rick answered, also surprised he hadn’t managed to mess up this interaction yet.

“I’m… Angel,” the girl volunteered, “Angel Dynamite.”

“Mr. E!” cried Ricky, desperately wanting to sound cool or interesting

So a year ago, @orithereticent and I had talked about their mermaid AU. And within that AU, Ricky is the one posing as the DJ/owner of K Ghoul. That idea came back into my head and I finally had an idea I liked, so here’s a Ricky based on that concept

(Extra one without the K Ghoul lighting under the read more)

I like playing dnd because it forces you to examine what specifically is wrong with you.

Like “hey why do all my characters have abandonment issues?” Then you think about it and you’re like “ah, I see.”

For everybody saying "the moon has a name??" eh, kinda. The moon, in english, as a body, is called the moon. Specific parts of the moon have names, and the specific part chosen to be landed on happened to be the sea of tranquility, which is a mare, and also translated from latin, the name in latin being Mare Tranquillitatis. Mare are the parts of the moon that appear darker in colour to the naked eye. This is because they are newer, mostly basalt, and generally much flatter than the lighter parts of the moon which are called the highlands, the highlands are older and more rocky and cratered than the mare.

Earlier you told me you like Mary Penelope for than Jake Windsnap. After finishing the entire EW series I absolutely agree with you! They’re both great characters but Mary Penelope has more nuance, more emotional range, more acknowledged flaws to balance out her strengths, more specific hobbies and interests, and a much bigger character arc. She felt more like a real person (maybe it’s why I’m obsessed with drawing her 😆) .

Yeah! I think that while I like both characters, Mary fasinates me because she's much more 'human' so to speak. Emily grew up being taken care of almost entirely by Mary, and Mary spent 12 years raising a child while her memory was deleted every week.

I love Jake as a character, but it interests me because he doesn't really know how to take care of Emily, and he's almost stuck where he was 12 years ago.
