#Name Parsing

[bigfatbreak]

Hello I love your art!!! I was reading through your changeling au and Felix mentions that fae are creatures of mirth. They literally need attention to survive. But what kind of attention? I guess I'm wondering because Adrien has been in the public eye for a while now, but has been personally neglected for even longer. What does that mean for him? Is he starving? Is he in danger of dying? Does he even know it? (I assume not given he doesn't even know he's Fae).

If he is starving / in danger of starving who is the first to realize this?

it depends on the mirth, on the attention, on what it is they seek. Without making things too complicated - I don't like to define everything into neat little boxes after all, there's fun in nuance - Felix is just explaining from his experience, the Fae he was with tended to be "entertained" by certain aspects of their playing, which was the mirth that kept them relevant. Relevancy more than anything is really what keeps their wheels greased.

In Adrien's case though, the reason he's cloying for so many names and to have so many thralls and attendants is because he SHOULD be a more social creature and has been kept woefully alone. He is kinda starving in the way a fae starves - he's relevant, but only in an image his father constructs OF him, which means it isn't REALLY him - and he has no one to play with. No friends, no lovers, and no rivals, makes a very sad fae

Which Castle Crashers character would Catapult, Cocksley, and Catapult’s sister main, and why?

(Go search up Castle Crashers if you don’t know what it is.)

Also what is Catapult’s sister’s name? I feel like it would be Lucitten. (Lucy + kitten)

i love your fics and the ideas you describe for the ask games. i'm especially fond of your takes on the rarer pairings and i always smile when i see your posts in the ship tags <3

and don't stress too much about not posting anything, real life is important and participating in fandom should be fun, not something you have to force yourself to do. god knows fandom burnout is real, especially if you feel like people are expecting something from you. just keep doing what makes you happy :)

ghgfhgjhkjhjhg this was so sweet, thank you so much! i *love* talking about rarer rarepairs, especially if it gets other people to ship them too. the popular ships are fun and all, but i truly love spreading rarepair propaganda.

that's very reassuring, thank you <3 i've loved everything i posted here so far and have not felt pushed to post anything i haven't enjoyed, but sometimes i forget i can like. use this blog for whatever i want and not *just* headcanons/fics/mets/etc lol. and i also forget i don't have to rush myself. it's annoying to want to write and either not have time or not have the words work. i used to run a fandom blog in my teens that got very large and felt like a chore and i was so stressed about the need to perform and the numbers and all of that. like if a fic didn't do well i saw it as a personal failing and forced myself to write popular headcanons just for the numbers game. was not fun or sustainable in the long run and i think it contributed to me no longer having any taste for the ship i primarily wrote for. so for too long i treated existing in fandom like a job lol. i've mostly gotten it through to myself that this is a space for me, but i occasionally forget when i'm so caught up in all the things i want to get to for this blog. my to-write list is a mile long and i need to be bonked with a paper towel roll, i think. so it's very kind of you to say this bc the reminder is nice <3

managed to accrue a backlog of namedropped incidentals/lore characters which is... daunting. so... just drawing rough left-facing headshots my beloved

some of these designs have had their roughs/written descriptions around for a while already (the rockets and dj limescale especially being lead in design by @samhainian) and the rest are incidentals with varying layers of in-joke to the designs...

The Rockets - Your Dad's Favourite Band. From Back In The Day. Did 7 albums, each in different genres in which they were basically forerunners. And then one of them (Menken) vanished mysteriously. Band over. Oops. (Also, estrogen makes you green.)

Zavier Summe - Your Grungy Older Brother's Favourite Musician. He's a nice guy though.

Dr. Ruban - Leading academic in studying high control groups. An eccentric man, and seems to have a lot of theories on what happened to that one guy from The Rockets. His legacy will be having his research misquoted and misapplied by teenagers online forever.

Queenie, Chain, Howl, Citron and Mitch: Actual Incidentals. Adults who exist to fill up some background space. Queenie, Chain and Howl, specifically, are former classmates of Miao, filling out her non-existent social life.

DJ Limescale: you know when an album has a bunch of remixes at the end that you don't like? yeah those are his fault. Despite the rave gear getup however, he is devoutly religious.

I would love to listen to your podcast (if you wanna have one) about anything, but something about languages intrigues me. Please, tell me more : )

had to think for a second about what this was about I'm guessing it's my Nopony In This Country Is Pronouncing Przewalski Correctly and now listen..... I have no more to tell you because the like. Concept of languages and within that phonology (the study of the patterns of sounds in a language and across languages) is so wide you wouldn't have enough of a life to say everything about it. Unless you got one thing in mind. But I'm Flattered. Idk if I'd be much of a podcast guy I love visual stimuli. shan't lie I've had for months the idea to do a. Franco-Cantabrian Archeological iceberg... with shit like....... Fontainebleau "water breaking" carving... the Réseau Clastres Only Know Depiction Of [Animal]..... stuff of the sort. but oh well. FLATTERED.... maybe one day. Podcast ideas anyone.

It’s so heartwarming to me that theatre kids don’t just disappear, they grow up into theatre adults.
