just 4 that u get a little piece of the pie im workshopping

The first thing Anatoly Zikov did in the United States, as soon as he was alone, was reach down and pick up a fistful of dirt. This was American soil.

This was Arizona sand, he’d corrected himself, watching it sift through his fingers and scatter in the wind. He thought of the low skies of St. Petersburg, so close you felt you could touch them, smoke from the buildings rising and curling against them like a ceiling. Here the skies were too large, too long, too deep to challenge the shallow dirt. Everything was covered in a little bit of dust.

The amount of people he’d met today had been alarming. He recalled few names; Julian, the goalie who was constantly in motion; Simon, the starter; Bowen, the head coach. The man he’d been shooting with– The shootout. The skater, the winger. Tolya could not remember his name. He was good, fast, smooth. No flash; all skill. Big-eyed. Obsidian skin.

He ended up sitting on the edge of his hotel room bed, checking the roster on NHL.com, of all places. Proulx. Nicolas Proulx. Had that number been put into his phone? He checked. It had not.

They were all in his phone, a ton of names and numbers. Here was a Barnesy; a Mattias Almqvist; an Ezra Page #98 C. Tolya did not know these people, though they’d all known him. That was not how it had been in the KHL. Most of his teammates had stayed as far away from him as possible.

Well, Gennady, back in Astana–things continued to crack and splinter inside of Tolya when he thought of Gennady, so he tried to do it as rarely as possible. Shit goalie, he had to keep reminding himself. Gennady was swiss cheese. The ability of the hockey player was what mattered. The ability of the hockey player was the only thing that mattered. He put him out of his mind.

Maedhros didn't give up kingship.

In the Silm it sounds like he went to Fingolfin and said "I don't wanna be king anymore, it's your turn." because it's so shortened and his giving up of the claim to the crown is put BEFORE the council.

In The Grey Annals is a longer version where the council VOTES, on who should lead the Noldor. And Fingolfin wins. Maedhros ACCEPTS the decision (unlike his brothers) which could be called "waving his claim to kingship", yes, but it's still a very different situation than in the Silm.

The kingship going to Fingolfin not by Maedhros initiative also fits the whole "dispossessed" epithet a little better. The kingship is rather taken than given away.

(Also interesting is that it seems like that Maedhros might have become king if Caranthir hadn't behaved that badly at the council.)

Here's the bit from The War Of The Jewels if anyone's interested:

Maels just hit the road in their awesome vintage Jaguar! But they also encountered some obstacles that might have made them a little bit mad

Not sure if there's anything official- based only on a vaguely similar shape and location and seemingly supported by the map pictures released by Dreamworks TV recently, would Yaz's island be Frank Island in Yellowstone National Park? Only for JWE2 building reference purposes 😁

It's possible it was used for some visual inspiration, but I think the EXACT location in Wyoming was probably meant to be a little vague, as a fictional location.

So my friend and I have made a bungou stray dogs server because this hyperfixation has me by the throat and isn't letting go anytime soon and we need people to scream with. If you would like to join feel free! The link expires in 7 days so if you catch it after that, just send me a message and I'll send you a new one.

In the meantime, have some gorgeous sskk art I've stumbled across

the mere existence of the nighthawks stat blocks are insanity i'm in awe and maybe a little bit afraid. i <3 numbers tho i'd be doing the exact same thing given the time and energy lol

thank u sm the career TOI is my enemy. i love hockey stats and hate math. hydrogen bomb vs coughing baby etc.. the dahlvig page is my pride and fucking joy. interesting that for skaters your career TOI is the average, but for goalies it's the total.

also taking the time to read player bios on the nhl.com stat pages is crazy who writes those things ??? is2g. highly recommend the brad marchand one, it's REALLY funny

trans ben au where part of the reason ben luvs feedback so much is because feedback’s dna sample came from a woman and the omnitrix doesn’t change feedback’s gender to be ben’s bio/assigned one. of course feedback is ben’s favorite, they’re cool, they’re powerful, and ben just feels… right when she he transforms into them.

- only gets 5 hours of sleep last night

- it's raining

- gets pulled over for genuinely no fucking reason by the most tryhard baby cop in the world

- first customer of the day is belligerently drunk making vague threats and aggressive innuendos to anyone femme

Alright. Great start to the day. What else can fucking happen???

[wetcatspellcaster]

thought of u: i found a full boxset of buffy the vampire slayer in my local CEX today!

hahahahaha, I literally was looking through my TV for head empty sickness watching yesterday and nearly clicked Buffy Season 2 but was like... "that's the devil talking" and fended off the rewatch demons with my bare hands. It's a good fucking show!!! I'm glad that this is my brand!!!
