{Meme}: SEND “📂“ FOR A RANDOM YET COMPLETELY USELESS HEADCANON I HAVE {x} 24 folders? Aight bet.

1.) 📂 Claude Frollo has REALLY hairy arms... Like no idea why & they are indeed the hairiest part of his body excluding y'know... His hair. The arm hairs are still platinum blonde. 2.) 📂 Claude's eyebrows are also still platinum blonde. 3.) 📂 Keira Black & her ex husband the Metatron both share the weird laugh after good sex quirk. 4.) 📂 Alaine's middle name "Claudine" was actually her birthname because her mother Alana Triton was a lil obsessed with Claude at the time. Her twin brother Amadis got the Claude II treatment... Claude amended both the shits the very second he could, he had to SAVE those kids. 5.) 📂 Sanderson le Fay really enjoys spoons? Just finds them really funny & somewhat fascinating... No idea why.

6.) 📂 Lord Hades (my regular one not the Disney based one, yes I know it's confusing I have two it's a long ass story) wears band human tees for the comfort & aesthetic but he is a poser & does NOT listen to most of the said bands he displays on them. 7.) 📂 SG & Sam both are left-handed. Not sure which twin copied which honestly. 8.) 📂 Keira's full name is so wild Demetra never ever allowed Marcus to name a child again. If you're an S/O of hers you're only finding out what her actual full name is after you married her. She has 3 fucking middle names & knows not what she's done to deserve such a thing. 9.) 📂 Bram Stoker honestly never is recognised as THE Bram Stoker in public usually until he makes a really specific joke about the book Dracula. 10.) 📂 Speaking of Dracula. Marcus Black was the vampire who turned him. They still talk sometimes. 11.) 📂 Marcus Black also invented chess. He was bored one day. Though a lot more people have beaten him at it than expected though he's always a good sport about. He did not invite checkers. According to him we have the werewolves to thank for that. 12.) 📂 Lucaevar Hill can do the same weird shoulder popping thing his mother Keira does. Freaks Jaime the fuck out sometimes he's just like "Son wtf???" 13.) 📂 Terran Rickman has a SUPER fiaxtion on shuffleboard. He loves that shit. Honestly I can support it, it's a fun game. 14.) 📂 The most popular game on the Isle of the Lost was Twister? Whenever a bunch of villains on Trash Island were bored & hanging out together without fail one of them would be like "Hey I have a game of Twister with me." & that's all they HAD to say. Jamie Hook was NEVER ever allowed to do left hand anything for obvious reasons.

15.) 📂 Maleficent Faire's staff can stay upright without her holding it. She has that good strong magic.

16.) 📂 Lord Chernabog is as his tiltle "The Lord of Night" implies much more active at night. His oldest kid Nyx inherited that from him... Probably because her mother is the same way.

17.) 📂 Severus Snape's eyes are bizarrely light sensitive. Specifically sunlight or artificial lights that are too bright. Thank GOD most of his time is spent in torchlight.

18.) 📂 Demetra Black, Morgana le Fay & Hecate were the three witches Macbeth saw in the woods. They weren't really serious about their prophecy either they were just having a laugh & he self fulfilled it. Morgana felt real bad about him going crazy. The other two? Not so much.

19.) 📂 Merlin le Fay's gun is registered. Surprisingly. Considering he is a crazy man who RARELY follows the laws of morality much less the law in legality.

20.) 📂 Claude Frollo has broken MULTIPLE gavels on his paternity court show... Some of the people testifying REALLY get under his skin & he is REALLY strong. Gotdam~

21.) 📂 Morpheus Sadik once lied about having Alaine's name tattooed in his asshole & people immediately believed him. Her name is tatted on him but it is not in his Sandy lil b-hole he's just dumb.

22.) 📂 None of the lizards Victor Granite has tosssed into Claude's hair have ever been hurt... Also they love it there, they have the time of their little scaly lives frolicking about in there.

24.) 📂 Claude Frollo hates Furries passionately but there are only TWO other groups of people who can similarly draw his ire. The Catholicism kinkers... & surprisingly... MIMES? He's a proud Frenchie so I have n o idea why he hates mimes but he does. He shares this passionate irrational hatred of mimes with Keira Black so AT LEAST a friendship & marriage came out of that united spite I guess???

Origin of the Pixies

Head Pixie backstory longfic

Drama & Angst (I hear there's fluff in here somewhere...)

First-person POV

Dead Dove

Suddenly becoming the first member of a brand new species means complex politics to deal with, a Pixie World to build, a shipping company and a therapy business to manage, and a budding interspecies war to survive... ... All on top of raising children.

This work has a largely T tone. Borderline M for themes like 'queen bee' insect people fighting to the death, getting abducted by Cupid's family for study, being forced into a will o' the wisp's harem to ensure milk for newborn Sanderson, and general themes of non-human reproduction, child loss, and war.

Head Pixie-centric longfic with a focus on:

- Growing up with freckles in insect society, where you're typecast as a violent "queen bee" who'll stop at nothing to defend his hive. Set Daddy's fortune aside for wergild; you're gonna need it. - Accidental selkie wife addition (Please don't send her back to Mom; she needs this job) - Local party boy struggles to prioritize fatherhood above raves - Getting abducted by Cupid's hot grumpy mom, who's absolutely willing to push you to your limits if it means she can unravel your biology and show you off to all her friends - Raising little worker bees... I mean, drone pixies who regularly need their faces licked for pheromone exposure or they'll cry - Cloudlands' most eligible rich bachelor rejects hugs because he fears bee-instinct cuddle death attacks; more at 11 - Building a company up from nothing. Gotta start somewhere- Why not with cupcakes? (Maybe cute kids are good for something after all...) - Raising an heir you're biologically programmed to kill... It's fine- Sis is raising the spare - Why did we think adopting a cù sìth that can steal your soul if you lie was a good idea? - The cool girl who founded the human godparenting division is afraid you'll hurt her with your big, scary muscles and she'd rather "just be friends." oh no. - WHAT midlife crisis? Hahaha... Don't read Chapter 37. - The war over godkids from "Balance of Flour" (Season 7); H.P. and his 4 eldest pixies are drafted on the Fairies' side. Huh... That's gonna cause issues with the whole "BFF with the leader of the Anti-Fairies" thing... - Divorce? Child loss?? Raising some anti-fairy kid with Anti-Cosmo? Uh-oh. - His hat is also a pen

I. LOVE. HER.

Nobody else in this movie exists.

Only Sarah.

SHE'S SO BABY

I'M SOBBING SHE'S ADORABLE

[kandra-chameleon]

I feel like one moment of Absolute Madness ™️ that we don’t talk about enough in the cosmere is the bit in Elantris when The Gang is discussing Seinalan and someone asks how a man like him became head of a church and Sarene is like “Well basically our number one rival made the hottest twink this side of Roshar their figurehead, and he was the closest thing Shu-Korath had in terms of an aesthetic match so now he’s the patriarch :\\” and everyone just accepts that as a totally sound- or at the very least, not unexpected- political move???

The Marvellous Evolution of Magic Systems in Fantasy

Today, we’re going on a trip to the fantastical realm of magic systems in fantasy, the invisible scaffolding supporting the marvellous spectacles in our beloved enchanting tales. As ubiquitous as a unicorn in a fairy tale, these systems are the heart and soul of many a fantastical narrative. What is a Magic System? A magic system is the set of rules that governs the use of magic in a fantasy…

Happy April Fools Day

*several of Books pages have been greased up for the Sanderson Sisters*

April Fools! | @handful-of-muses

Sarah was clearly far more amused by this prank than her sisters. While she giggled at the whimsical bit of mischief and at their fumbling through the slick pages, Mary simply looked exasperated. “Who would possibly do such a thing?” she wondered. “Or perhaps a more pressing question would be, who could do such a thing? What mortal would be capable of such magic?”

“I do not know!” Winifred screeched, smacking Sarah lightly in the gut to shut her up. “But when I find out, there shall be hell to pay! I shall curse them in all the worst ways they can imagine!”

“Ohhhh,” Sarah groaned, wincing as she recovered from the blow, “but they must be powerful, Winnie. Perhaps ‘tis better to make them an ally than an enemy!”

“Silence! They made themselves my enemy when they tampered with my precious Book! Now, they shall feel my wrath!”

Probably wrong predictions 29% of the way through "Tress of the Emerald Sea":

Captain Crow is the Sorceress and the talking rat is Tress' transformed boyfriend.

If Claude Frollo doesn’t want you to touch his face. You’re not touching his face.

Men usually get their wrist grabbed & thrown to side (unless it’s Ares/Diablo, Ares/Diablo gets his wrist grabbed then pulled in. Claude likes Ares & Diablo)

Women usually get their hand gently blocked with his forearm or palm.

Winnie Sanderson, however Winnie Sanderson gets the Cat Treatment.

Mrs W. U. Sanderson wearing a beautiful dress by Suzanne Via Flickr: Mrs. Sanderson was born in 1895 and died in 1965 at age 70. She's mentioned in several newspaper articles reporting on social activities, such as, 'She attended a dance at the Mallory Hotel on 1/4/21'. The verso says that the photo was going to be in the Sunday Oregonian newspaper. Her husband was an Australian sheepman, living in Oregon

"Today is the day you put your fantasy fandom skills to the fire. Will you melt under pressure like a marshmallow exposed to the center of a fire pit? Will you emerge stronger after being forged in fire like a fine steel sword? Can you guess the fantasy book based on a vague description?

Many a fantasy fan has had the experience of forgetting the name of the book you’re reading. Instead, you rattle off a vague description of the book that gets you further away from the truth. When it comes to fantasy books, this could be only describing a chapter of a thousand-page book or a single character or a world-building element. After all, if someone asks you if you know “that book about the people with magic who walk in the forest,” would you know what they were talking about? Technically, it is a description of the fantasy book, even if it’s not very identifiable."

I think that a story about Alabaster Torrington “hoid-ing*” around the riordan mythoverse would be so cool.

*hoid is a frequent side character (turned main character) in Brandon Sanderson’s cosmere novels who often hops around from world to world, seems to know a lot about everything (but also know nothing )and is a cheeky lil bastard about it.

Magic and Lawlessness

I have an almost irrational distaste for “hard” magic systems in literature. This is not because of any particular aversion to stories getting metaphysical. I have absolutely no problem there but it is instead because I think attempts to systematize magic have a tendency to strip the magic out of it. There is a famous quote from Arthur C. Clarke that “any sufficiently advanced technology will be…
