Chapter 13 as explained by John Mulaney…

Dave: Can I please go home? 😥😬🫠

The Council: No. Infact, we’re gonna frame you for [human trafficking]! And you’re gonna go to jail for 30 years! 🤪

Dave: Why are you doing this to me?? 😵‍💫🫨😭😭

*Replace the word “Toad” 🐸 with “Eaten”🍽️*

The Jacks: “We didn’t abandon you, Rory, we just thought you were eaten.”

Rory: “No, He never ate me.”

The Jacks: “Well, that was our mistake then.”

Rodrick at the fact that Rory managed to kill a Giant instead of him:

Rory: 😏👁️🫦👁️😏

When the 👸Queen👸 shows up:

i feel like theres some sort of loss of cultural-whimsy... as in the people who won't entertain a mythological tale because "oh c'mon that isn't real" people who dismiss any attempt at new local tales because "oh c'mon that isn't real"

no ghosts because they cannot look death in the eye

no hauntings because local histories couldn't mean less to them

no treefolk because they cannot see trees living beasts

no merfolk because they haven't been at sea for anything longer or more harrowing than a cruise

no pixies because they both have never been lost and never known their area

you who are not that which i just described- please put more fables and myths into the world. create a beast of rolling black outs, what lives in the utility box on the corner, what ghost of a corner store haunts this shopping complex

Ladies Of The Garden

Ladies of the Garden

Fine and Fair

Watching, waiting, learning

They hold the hems of their dresses

For daggers lie underneath

When the full moon reaches its zenith

Danger arises from the garden's depths

Enter If You Dare, They urge

Lose the battle, then face damnation

Win and you stand tall, poised, chiseled to the bone, and live in stone

Watching, waiting, learning

Fine and Fair

Here are the Ladies of the Garden

[cannibal-stag]

if you follow me i’d like to ask that you please go into the trending tags regarding Gaza/Palestine and the University encampments in the US (such as the Columbia University tag). there are tons of links you can donate to and share both for people trying to evacuate Gaza and for bail/legal funds for pro-Palestinian protestors who have been arrested. as always free palestine 🇵🇸🍉

More Fable designs? More fable designs!

I designed the boyo on the right first. His name is Willow, and he's an African Peach Moth. Meaning, his favorite food is absolutely peaches! He is Hex's apprentice, and is more or less also his adopted little brother. While Hex is far more out-going, Willow is incredibly quiet. His voice is more often than not completely monotone. He also has a funny little habit of speaking entirely in 3rd person. So it sounds more like he's telling a story about someone rather than speaking directly to them.

His two main interests are the ocean, and his greenhouse full of rare and exotic plants.

While I drew his wings more open so everyone could see the entire pattern as much as possible, his wings are usually down when he's not using them, much like the woman on the left.

Speaking of which: Her name is Maple.

Because, you know, Rosy Maple Moth. It's a bit unoriginal, but she's so sweet that she deserves a sweet-sounding name. Maple works in the fable kingdom's temple, and is in charge of all of the orphans there. She also has a few kids of her own. Due to a certain event in their history (NO SPOILERS) there are a LOT of orphans. Even still, she does her best to give them all of the love they need to grow.

The fable temple holds shrines for many of the different gods, and there is no discrimination on who anyone choses to primarily pray to. Maple herself prays to the wind god, which is shown by all of the swirly patterns on her outfit.

Her bracelets are made out of seed pods and make a soft, pleasant "shaka shaka" kind of noise when she shakes them.

Both Maple and Willow are southern fables. The northern fables have some distinct differences to them.

In celebration of chapter 12 coming out (and me finishing finals), here are some more “Beanstalk” memes for @fae-of-the-forest01! 🫣🤭

Memes part 1 & part 2 & part 4

Future Rory talking about Dave after/if they get separated (audio only):

"He was my first love, and he was everything I ever wanted…" 😔

“You only knew him for a WEEK.” (Less than a week actually 😂).

“It was supposed to be… FOREVER!” 😭😭😭

[frogmanfae]

This is actually the story of my life.

A fae forms a genuine bond of friendship with a human. As a prank another fae decides to kill their friend. Their ruler decides the murder did not violate any fae laws and issues no punishment, so the first fae dedicates their life to getting revenge by teaching humans all the rules of the fae.
