watching Merlin for the first time with Emi (who has seen it before) and we’ve finished episode four
can I just say that Merlin and Arthur are so fucking gay??? hello???? “There’s something about you, Merlin.” in episode ONE???? this blonde himbo risking his whole life so that Merlin doesn’t die???? they have more romantic chemistry in one wordless interaction than Merlin and Gwen did in that whole kiss.
also the magic is 100% an extended metaphor for being gay, I’ve decided

I just looked at a picture from a year ago , and it’s wild just how much my character and my life have changed. And I can’t help but to praise the Lord.

I’ve been staring at Jumilhac papyrus plates for like five hours. Anyway, I think this is my favourite drawing:
I like the contrast, with the red and black and how Osiris and Set are inverted from each other. (Also, obvious symbolism with Set in the stock “enemy” pose and him being upside down.)
That vessel on Osiris’s chair in the corner looks like it might be a heart? If it is that would be cool, like it relating to how Osiris’s heart is vindicated against Set when he becomes ruler of the dead and Horus is given his inheritance as king.
This is what Set looks like when you turn it the other way, by the way:
This papyrus is from the Ptolemaic period, and I believe Set (“Typhon”) was usually as just a donkey instead of a special animal by then. I like that he has a more canine head here, I think it looks cool (EARS!!! HE HAS POINTY EARS!!)
Also he has hieroglyphs next to him spelling his name instead of just an ideogram, which is cool. They’ve spelled it Stš here. (Usually it was Stẖ, but sometimes the š was sometimes used instead of ẖ in words sometimes.) Anyway, you’d pronounce that either S-t-sh or S-t-ch depending on who you ask (and of course the vowels are missing because it’s ancient Egyptian, so when you read it out loud you could say it Setesh or Setech even though that’s probably not how the ancient Egyptians said it).

I don’t know if it’s a problem of my quality or just that I’m so indecisive but each oc kiss piece I’ve been working on is in a very different style…. Why me? Why did I do this? Why can’t I remain consistent
