Another blog noticed that Megumis scars are on the same position as Heian!Sukuna. And it's true! By that logic he should have scars under his armpits and on his belly (second arms and second mouth). You drawing it would be interesting

shoutout 2 megumi for making up fr all of yuuji's scars i no longer get to draw

Fragile reader helping Dottore's segments do repairs on themselves, only of course they're not too successful or helpful because of their shaky hands and other complications. At first, you're adamant about not doing it because you think you might accidentally actually hurt them, like breaking their wiring, or cause them to short-circuit somewhere. But a lot of them are very good at convincing you (and in actuality so desperate for your attention and touch) that nothing will happen, their design is far too complex for something major to happen that easily! And so begins your poking and prodding into their internal systems. The clones are so much more complicated than those Khaenri'ahn machines you and Zandik researched all those years ago, it's hard not to marvel at their intricate designs. Which leads to you doing silly things like pulling their faces in all directions to get the best angle with a screwdriver in your hand, your face extremely close to theirs. The younger ones are bad at hiding their flustered state and have to bite their tongue to prevent any affectionately rude things from flying out their mouths. While the older ones are more calm about it and find it quite funny to see how you handle them, probably subtly flirting with you during the process. It took a very long time but when you do manage to fix the issue you feel quite elated and proud of yourself. You've still got it! (A little bit. They helped you a bit when you weren't looking.)

Lord of the strawberries🐖🍓

I made two Rogers cause I'm sick and tired of people whitewashing him (credits of the Roger redesign to @charli3emily . Didn't also make a Simon one cause the one they made is not facing forward)

Feel free to use any of them as a pfp. Credits are pretty much appreciated <3

If you want me to make other characters (it can be from any sort media not only lotf) or one with your design just tell me, asks are always open and welcomed 🤗

Thoughts about the supposed direction Rhaena's storyline is going in Hotd and the apparent Nettles erasure? Disappointing but... I can sort of see where they could take it? Idk... looking at grrm's posts in hindsight kinda makes me even more disappointed if he is as well (he just can't get his adaptations right atp but idk)

Well. Pre-ep7, we're still pending any Rhaena-Sheepstealer bonding, but I'm basically 😑🫠 about the rumors. (I dislike borrowing trouble, I'm not even sure how many of the rumors are true -- actually I'm pretty sure many of these supposed "leaks" are straight up lies -- and yet. Still *disgruntled meh* and *"we're all fine-everyone's fine here" dread*.) Rhaena is one of my more beloved F&B characters (it's the Sansa parallels, I can't help myself), and Nettles has been a super fave since TPATQ and TWOIAF. (Particularly TWOIAF, since the Burned Men fire-witch reveal; heck, I think my little dollmaker is still one of the few fanarts of Nettles in the mountains.)

I mean, sure, I understand that Rhaena's book storyline during the Dance, where she's offpage from basically the start of the war until nearly the end of it, socializing in the Vale and waiting for her egg to hatch, would be difficult to adapt in an action-oriented visuals-oriented television show. (Like Rhaenyra this season sure isn't just catatonically crying from Luke's death until Jace's.) And I'm glad Rhaena's getting more to do, and I'm glad it's directly addressing her feeling slighted and ignored by her family since she doesn't have a dragon. However...

I do not want Rhaena merged into one character with Nettles! I do not want Rhaena to have Sheepstealer and not her hope-for-the-future (doomed hope, and yet) baby dragon Morning, that hatched for her. Also note how pink Morning, worn as a fashion accessory, so suited Rhaena's coquette personality vs her sporty, adventurous twin sister... I mean, I've said before, I understand adaptations can be different, this still wouldn't make HOTD even close to a "loose adaptation".* But I do not want this adaptation to lose Rhaena's personality that I loved.

Or for that matter, to lose Nettles's character, and her importance to the themes and worldbuilding of ASOIAF. (See also.) And her importance to the plot -- but god knows, they're doing all sorts of things with Daemon and Rhaenyra on this show, toxic romance or what have you, who knows if once Daemon reaches his emotional breakthrough or whatever at Harrenhal this season, if they want to backslide him into a cheating plot in S3 while Daemon is again stuck in a castle for months.** Nevertheless, I'd be deeply disappointed to lose scenes like "as well as her dragon, the girl had taken to riding Daemon", or the last morning in Maidenpool scene... and um, you can't really fit Rhaena in there, or if you did, it would certainly put the lie to the ship denialists' "he just treated her like a father, platonically bathing naked together!" (Also the pretty blatant fake S3 leaks including one where Rhaenyra decides Rhaena has betrayed her... are pretty blatantly fake, sorry.)

And then there would be the frankly racist erasure of the one book black character. "Oh but the show made the Velaryons black, so it's not erasing, it's adding more!" No, sorry. (1) I was and am all for adding more racial diversity to the show and especially to Valyrians, but face it, when you take the book's secondary character Velaryons, two who get killed off early and are portrayed as lesser to the "true" Daemon/Rhaenyra marriage, and make them black, you've already done a lot of hinky damage there. (2) What, it's that hard to write three distinct black girls with very different personalities and one from an incredibly different background? I don't see Addam and Alyn getting merged. I don't see Aemond and Daeron getting merged. I don't see Hugh and Ulf getting merged. But I'm not really one to speak here, for this particular discussion I'd point you to @ride-thedragon and @venusintheblindspots-blog and @chrkrose, among others, they have many many posts on this subject in far greater detail and better argued than mine.

OK, so. I still have hope that Nettles -- even if not cast for this season (sorry y'all, that extra is an extra) -- may appear next season, and all this worry will turn out to be a tempest in a teapot. Per last report from the HOTD panel at SDCC, the rumor of Rhaena and Sheepstealer definitely doesn't happen in ep 7, though, yes, there's one episode after. And if it does happen... I'll be strongly disappointed. Deeply, deeply disappointed, and probably far more suspicious of future adaptational changes. But, for me at least, it's not a dealbreaker like GOT S5 was.*** I won't be happy at all about the storyline, but I would like to think the show will remain high quality re themes and character and all. Time will tell, though. Time will definitely tell.

As for GRRM, when his complaints seem to be "wild dragons shouldn't be in the Vale" and "the heraldry with four legs is wrong", well, I struggle to see that he's that disappointed in the adaptational changes. Believe me, I am well used to reading between the lines re GRRM and adaptations, something like the fact that he's not visiting the HOTD writers' room when he's in the UK is nothing. Catch me if at Worldcon or his Oxford lecture in August, GRRM again says that he could write a whole novel about Nettles, or if actually says something about non-Valyrian dragonriders, ok?

*I was just reading up on The Beast (2023) vs Henry James's “The Beast in the Jungle”. lol HOTD doesn't compare. Don't even think it, man.

**You know, this reminds me of how the Dance in F&B is not paced very well for individual characters, they keep going offscreen for months at a time. From shortly after Rhaenyra's crowning to the Fall of KL, Daemon just sits at Harrenhal and occasionally ventures out into the riverlands. From shortly after the Fall of KL until the Battle Above the Gods Eye, Daemon just... sits at Maidenpool and occasionally ventures out into the riverlands (with Nettles). Yeah, obviously a show would need to write more for him to do, he's a main character.

***Thank god HOTD isn't the sort of exploitative shitshow that GOT was. All y'all thinking it was a better adaptation because of your nostalgia goggles (and/or shitty memory) need to actually reread the books (especially AFFC/ADWD) and then submit yourself to the real-world misogynist and homophobic nonsense of S5-6 again, ugh.

I would argue that Megumi leaving Gojo out of his loved ones when thinking about his idealist life with Tsumiki and Yuji highlights the continued tragedy that is Satoru Gojo's lack of communication and connection skills. Alsoooo (and this might be an asspull) it feeds into my perception that both Megumi and Gojo wanted the relationship to be deeper but both couldn't ever come to truly understand one another and connect on that level. And I have alot more comments on that but that will wait till another day if I feel like it lol

[cursedvibes]

This confirms that Kenjaku's technique retains the vessel's memories, but still requires you to go through them manually, you don't just automatically know everything. That's why Yuuta didn't know about Sukuna using domain amplification, he hadn't gotten to that point in Gojo's memories yet. He has only been in this body for one or two minutes max after all, while Kenjaku seems to set aside months to get to know their vessel. Considering Yuuta is scanning Gojo's memories while fighting, I doubt he will have a good grasp on them before the 5 minutes are up. That's just not enough time for 29 years of experience. This chapter also makes it pretty clear that Kenjaku was right. Even while having his body, Yuuta can't be the next Gojo Satoru because that takes more than just having the six eyes and Limitless.

Can I just say how mad I feel because everyone is watching the leaked Ninjago eps and I can't because I'm (supposed to be) studying and when I'm done I'll still be on Skybound so by the time I get to the latest eps it will be long after the actual release date???

[id: a black and white comic of sukuna in his true form and itadori yuji conversing in sukuna's domain. sukuna, along with his four arms, also has four boobs and ears, as well as underbite fangs. his arms and chests are also hairy. yuji has curlier hair.

sukuna, one pair of arms crossed and the other on his hips: by the way, your mom… she's so creepy. pregnancy is so gross. who does that for fun?

the kenjaku in sukuna's thoughts, winking at him mischievously with their hand on their chin. there are sparkles and flowers around them: cranky you're infertile aren't you

yuji, in his thoughts, his face is folded: (YOU of all people don't get to say that about ANYONE!!!!!) (what do you mean my mom?) /end id]

babe wake up crumbs for kenny and sukuna's relationship just dropped
