Aplomb

Aplomb [ə-PLAM] Part of speech: noun Origin: French, late 18th century 1. Self-confidence or assurance, especially when in a demanding situation. Examples of aplomb in a sentence “The lead actor recovered with such aplomb that the audience forgot he had tripped onstage moments before.” “I think I could pull off that outfit with aplomb.” #wordoftheday

very funny to me that grrm went "here is my geopolitical fantasy epic loosely based on the war of the roses. i've elevated the fraught family dynamics, elaborated the dynastic tensions and imbued the entire thing with a magical dimension that pushes the action into the mythic. what are the names of the feuding houses that started it all? uhhhh (looking at smudged writing on hand that reads: york vs lancaster) stark and lannister. one of them is in the north. another features a vilified disabled man but ohoho it's not the one you'd expect!"

we've talked about how there are joy dispensers all over wellington wells and jack couldn't possibly have avoided all of them every time while he was still fitting in with proper society; he must have ridiculous control over himself to have successfully hidden the fact that he's seeing eyes everywhere.

My favorite thing about Dungeon Meshi is the way it repeatedly establishes how eating monsters is relatively normal, despite everyone always losing their minds over it. Oh man, Laios wants to get through the dungeon by eating monsters?? How horrib- oh here's this dwarf that's been doing that for 10+ years. Eurgh, gem bugs?? That's so weird- oh if you make it a jam it's considered a delicacy in several parts of the world. Mermen?? No way, that's way too similar to mermaids to ever- oh would you look at that, mermaids eat them. Huh

the incomprehensibly large and alien force of despair and oppression when the y2k girl who has only ever known a post apocalyptic dystopia walks into the room and makes a pun about the infected remains of their parasitized soldier drones

Making a bunch of hair retextures to test how these colours look. I think the dark brown might need to be a touch warmer and the dark red needs to be more orange. Other than that I think I'm happy with these!

Something that occurred to me this time…

… Is that Eliot deliberately brings Hardison w/ him to confront Moreau the first time. He tells Nate that he and Hardison will do it (don't worry, I also Love Hardison taking the moment to be like 'hey, are you okay?' bc those two usually express themselves through bickering so much that it clearly telegraphs just how off Eliot is being that Hardison is dropping the usual banter to be serious).

Which for one thing, says something about Eliot's confidence in Hardison in general, but also, like… Yes, Parker's probably not the choice for that introduction, it's not her style, but Nate or Sophie could also have played the part. He could have tried to go alone. But he pulls Hardison.

Obviously he's not trying to put Hardison in danger, he makes it quite clear in all other scenarios that he does not tolerate Hardison in danger (visual cues in The Gone Fishin' Job my beloveds), the others are well aware of the fact that he's Done Some Shit and are equally unaware of his connection to Moreau. And to be honest, I can't pinpoint an exact reason why I think he might have done it, chosen Hardison to be the one who finds out first. Maybe he suspected Moreau would underestimate Hardison, making him safer (relatively, if course), then someone like Nate or Sophie. Maybe he thought it would be best to have Hardison's tech skills as back up. Maybe he thought Hardison would roll w/ the punches the best. Maybe he just wanted Hardison there for morale.

I don't know, but it's a moment that didn't really occur to me the first time, but I think is actually quite meaningful in a more emotional way.

lately I've been doing a very slow and leisurely reread of @cerebrobullet's excellent fic 'the long dark,' and having been reminded just how extremely fond I am of doctor thomason, I felt like it'd be a splendid idea to have a go at scribbling him up.
