Update: Character Redesigns

So, with ArtFight coming up for this year, I decided to go back through my designs and try to simplify some things whilst completely reworking others. That being said, next few posts will showcase new character references.

First up is the main protagonist of my story, Basma Noor.

[jordanianroyals]

King Abdullah II, Queen Rania and Crown Prince Hussein of Jordan attended the national event marking the Silver Jubilee, held on the 25th Accession to the Throne Day on 9 June 2024.

Upon Their Majesties’ arrival to the event venue surrounded by the Red Motorcade, the national anthem was played and Royal Jordanian Air Force fighter jets conducted a fly-past.

Around 9,000 Jordanians attended the event, including members of the Royal family, senior officials and officers, and diplomats from Arab and foreign countries.

The event highlighted Jordan’s achievements throughout a quarter of a century, through a military parade by the Jordan Armed Forces-Arab Army and security agencies, showcasing the latest developments in these national institutions, reflecting the high professionalism and commitment of its personnel.

Around 3,200 personnel from all military and security formations and units marched before the stands.

The military parade also showcased various JAF vehicles, including tanks, cannons, and other weapons recently introduced to service, as well as defence machinery manufactured by the Jordan Design and Development Bureau, along with air shows by the Royal Jordanian Air Force, and free falling paratroopers.

The JAF musical band also performed at the event.

During the event, His Majesty and the attendees saluted border guards and anti-terrorism troops, as well as cadres who participated in airdrops to Gaza and worked at the field hospitals in the strip, in recognition of their efforts, and their role in safeguarding Jordan’s stability.

The event also featured cultural and folklore segments representing all governorates performed by over 1000 young men and women, with 12 floats representing each governorate.

A group of young Jordanians performed the Silver Jubilee anthem and another national song composed for the occasion.

GAZA FUNDS: GFM campaigns low on funds!

Today I want to spotlight some evacuation fundraisers that are very low on funds. Most of these come from part 2 of my personal master list, and I would really appreciate it if people would look through that list and try to give those campaigns the same attention that part 1 got, because the majority of the campaigns in part 2 are new and have very few donations. Please also follow all of the accounts listed, many of them have been struggling with staff's targeting of Gazan blogs for terminations/bans and it causes massive setbacks for their fundraising efforts every time.

As always, thank you all for your kindness.

Whumptober No.1

A little out of the ordinary - Unconventional restraints

Here’s the first fic of the month! I’ve decided to start out with a little blurb from my newest writing project, one that’s been in the making since the beginning of this year. There’s more info in my previous posts. I also plan to run through a few different fandoms this Whumptober (mainly Star Wars, like Bad Batch, Rebels, OCs, etc.).

https://archiveofourown.org/works/42063288

The sand which she called home, as treacherous as it was beautiful, had betrayed her. The wind had swept through, as it always did, shaping the dunes into great arching waves of the desert sea. It had fallen down, caught her unawares in a moment of innocence and wonderment. Now she couldn’t move. She couldn’t call out for fear of the great mountain of sand above her sliding further.

How many times had her parents warned her of this exact thing? The desert is always changing. It holds no favor for any one person, not even the children of its own. It is great and magnificent, but also uncaring and callous. Nature required its sons and daughters to be self-sufficient - even social animals, such as humans. Little to no mercy would be afforded to those that could not keep vigilant. Basma had made the mistake of not watching the sands as mindfully as she’d been taught. And now she might pay dearly for it.

How enticing those forms had been, their slim bodies and wide wings - so fragile and yet so bold in color. They’d danced on air to beckon her from flower to flower. Yellow, soft and cool, unlike the harsh blaze of the sun high above, was criss-crossed in patterns she’d only ever dreamed of. Green was somewhat a rare sight in these barren lands, blue even more so. She’d been in awe; how the green of the plants helped accentuate the blue highlights of their gossamer wings. Two red dots, located also on the hind wing, had shone like twin suns. She’d lost sight of the insects when the world had crashed down atop her.

Her mask was discarded off to one side. Its now-empty eyes glared, chastising her from its place. It, too, was half-buried in the sand. She wondered which her parents might find first - it or her. Would they find them too late? There was still so much to do, so much to learn.

At first, when those forms returned, Basma experienced a hint of joy. Perhaps they would keep her company till her parents arrived. It was starting to get harder to breathe and she didn’t enjoy being alone. The day was hot and dry, heating the topmost layer of sand to a near unbearable degree. Contrasted in cold was the sand deeper down. The difference made her even more uncomfortable. The fear which she felt, and the heat, had caused her to begin sweating.

Basma knew this was a natural function - something that couldn’t be helped. But she’d always hated sweating. It made her skin wet and sticky, both sensations she did not appreciate. It was salt water, essentially, and that stuff always gave her a rash. Water was hard to find in the Arenan Regions, though, making it a precious resource. It was something no being could live without. It connected them all.

When the insect first landed, Basma shook her head in mild irritation. It came in for another go and earned a gusting of exhaled air. Undeterred, those wings fluttered just shy of her hairline and landed again. She could not raise a hand to gently dissuade the creature. And this time, shaking did not help for long.

The butterfly tip-toed its way across Basma’s cheek. The legs felt ticklish and produced a slight itch as they moved. The antenna twitched languidly as it set about tasting her skin with chemoreceptors in the legs. Members of Diptera did the same thing. She should be fine with that. Flies were, after all, her forte. But something about this seemed different.

Her swarms never did things like this. Sure, they landed on her. They hovered and crawled. But they never went for her face. She didn’t like that, it distressed her, and so they did not do it. There was nothing stopping, nor persuading, this insect from doing otherwise.

Basma tried her best to move. She did not care that the sand dune might crumble over her. Let if fall. Wash away her fright and consume her in cool darkness until she suffocates. It was preferable to what was happening.

She’s being silly. It couldn’t harm her. Wouldn’t. It just wanted a drink. But maybe that was the problem. To this creature, she was nothing more than a water source that had handily happened to fall in front of it. Those bright wings, formerly a source of excitement, became terrifying in their closeness. The pattern was a cracked window pane, sharp glass shards ready to cut her. Dark blue stripes were a foreboding sky before the storm. Red dots were angry, bloodshot eyes.

The girl squirmed and squeaked in terror when it finally approached her eyes. Its own, multifaceted cut ems looked into her and through her. She was nothing. Just another animal. Just another victim of the desert’s unfeeling fairness. Fair in being unfair. It had tasted her skin, and then, it drank from her eyes.

When her clan found her later on, Basma could not even cry. She was dehydrated, dying of thirst, and her time in the sun earned burns and heat sickness. From that day forward, try as she might, she could never stand to be around those insects. The ones that had taken advantage of her suffering, only because it was natural. How she wished she could rid herself of this silly, irrational fear. But that was the curse of intelligence - fear of the unknown, trauma, suffering. Suffering is natural. Emotions are a burden. Intelligence is not a winning trait.
