#arc of a scythe

[herwold]

The best ship dynamic is "i'll die for you" person and "i'll kill for you" person

[meezimoo]

took a doodle break to draw a DEPRESSED OLD MAN!!! his new design is just so hot y'all i cant explain it. i need to be incarcerated.

btw to all my scythe fans, heres a WIP of the goddard ref i was doing. I promise I didn't give up on them, im just a very.. VERY slow artist LOL (and also school has been kicking my ass, as usual)

anyways go stream fionna and cake rn. only two episodes in and I'm in love with it

There’s nothing stronger than the bond between two girls who read the same semi-embarrassing ya series when they were in middle school

Citra's middle name is Querida. I don't speak Spanish, but I'm pretty sure "querida" means "darling."

Greyson's middle name is TIMOTHY, which apparently means "God's honor," "honored by God," "honoring God," etc. which... lmfao I love him so much.

Rowan's is Daniel, which means "God is my judge."

So, we have: Citra "everyone's angel to protect at all costs" Terranova, Greyson "the Thunderhead's blatant favouritism" Tolliver, and Rowan "only God can judge me" Damisch.

Sounds about right

the grand dame of death

AOAS is actually so weird out of context. The main baddie is literally from mars, he killed an entire planet, was beheaded, and then started wearing one of the MC’s best friend’s body like the other 17% of the headless horseman for the ~drama~. One of the main driving plot points of the first book is Mars Man kidnapping Basically The President’s daughter and forcing the MC to babysit her against his will while he studies to get his license to kill. My man floods Basically NATO with mind-controlled sharks and yells “lol nope, u thought” while watching world leaders get eaten from a helicopter. The B-plot is New Jesus trying to navigate the intricacies of religion and developing a dysfunctional-ass found family that consists of his tour manager, a stubborn but devout theatre kid, a jean-cloaked ex-killer, and Robot God. He falls in love with a sexy sea captain who gets possessed by Robot God bc it’s in love. There’s deep talks about nature and morality of humanity. The two MC’s bang while dying of hypothermia while sinking to the bottom of the ocean. This isn’t even half of it.

Scythehood gave Citra empathy and I eat that shit up entirely everytime I think about it: an essay

One of the first things we learn about her in chapter one is that she's quick to anger. We also learn that she freezes up when she's scared, and shuts down completely. These two are a deadly combination meaning that if's shes afraid of losing an argument, she'll just shut the other person down completely instead of admitting fault.

She literally pushes a girl under a moving truck and just. lets her live with that. She actually killed someone and got them ridiculed for like, ever, and said nothing about it and covered it up completely. I don't even remember her actually saying she was sorry about it, even years later, when she actually had to apologize to the girl. This girl does not give a shit about anything!!!

Yet when she's an apprentice and a scythe, she shows people more compassion than she knows how to give. She falls hideously under her quota just to give people their last decision in their death. She bends rules and makes her life all the more difficult because it weighs on her that their life is ending because of her and she does her best to accommodate. In conclusion, she's my precious little meow meow and i love her so goddamn much you wouldn't believe

I've not yet finished book one, BUT.

He's a wet cat of a man and he has stolen my mind

[glennsparadice]

Thunderhead: You’re my favorite human.

Greyson: If I’m you’re favorite, why do you talk to everyone else?

Thunderhead: I have to.

Greyson: No, you don’t.

fandomtober day THIRTEEEEEN (yes i missed 5 days in a row, exams are fun) today is AOAS!!! I really had no idea what to do for this one because theres so many moments in AOAS i'd love to draw, but I settled on doing greyson because @spl-central compiled a REALLY great post with all of greysons character descriptors, and I owe it to spl to finally draw him! I will do a proper greyson ref sheet eventually, but I have so many projects I'm doing simultaneously that it'll probably be awhile until i get to it :,)

ANYWAYS READ SCYTHE RN ITS SO GOOD

A Mini Zine I Made About Sentient AIs!

Each page is based on an AI character from a book, movie, or game. I can't wait to print and fold it! If you want to, feel free to print your own copies, just please credit me if you share it :)

GLaDOS and Wheatley, Portal 2 (This one will technically end up being the cover)

AM, "I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream"

Justice of Toren, Imperial Radch by Ann Leckie (the EskVar logo was designed by Nicole Thayer and shared by Ann Leckie: https://annleckie.com/2015/09/25/your-complete-list-of-emanations-files/).

I added the engine because JoT is a spaceship and to emulate the wheel of Fortune, since the books talk about fate and action, etc. It also references "It all goes around..."

The Thunderhead, Arc of a Scythe by Neal Shusterman

AIDAN, The Illuminae Files by Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff (the Alexander engine design and the "AIDAN" background are taken from the first book; I just put them together and made it glow blue)

Edgar, Electric Dreams

Tau, Tau

HAL 9000, 2001: A Space Odyssey (This one will be the back cover when folded)
