"Come and sit where I can see you. That's good manners. And let me tell you right now that I ain't at all afraid of you."

The tall, black-robed figure walked across the floor and sat down on a handy barrel, leaning its scythe against the wall. Then it pushed back its hood.

Granny folded her arms and stared calmly at the visitor, meeting his gaze eye-to-socket.

I AM IMPRESSED.

"I have faith."

REALLY? IN WHAT PARTICULAR DEITY?

"Oh, none of them."

THEN FAITH IN WHAT?

"Just faith, you know. In general."

Death leaned forward. The candlelight raised new shadows on his skull.

COURAGE IS EASY BY CANDLELIGHT. YOUR FAITH, I SUSPECT, IS IN THE FLAME.

Death grinned.

Granny leaned forward, and blew out the candle. Then she folded her arms again and stared fiercely ahead of her.

After some length of time a voice said, ALL RIGHT. YOU'VE MADE YOUR POINT.

in all honesty I hope they don’t announce s4 of Hannibal, not because of any truly valid concerns, but because all the promotional material was absolutely atrocious and I’d hate to see it return

My biggest fear is not making the most out of this life, of not living to the fullest, of not experiencing all the good things this world has to offer, of not learning everything there is about it.

(from "My Longest Fear")

There were petals on the road

There were fallen leaves also

Stepping on them

I kept walking

Sometimes in the rain

Sometimes in the snow

I kept walking

One day

I turned around

There was nothing

I might keep walking

Again, turned my head around

And everything was a muddy mess

My longest fear is

The brightest light for me

The deepest darkness in me

So I walked again

But couldn't move on

ccan you share any facts about the lights out au :3

i can try!

one thing i'm trying to incorporate that they get a Lot more puppety once the lights go out - their expressions can no longer change! Frank's frown is fixed! i've been holding off on this a bit since trying to imagine like... Barnaby getting mad but it's just this fuckin blank muppet face kills me but. hey what if they all had eyebrows that were built to move- also it's Important to the "Plot". and if i need expressions to show emotion, i'm failing as a writer

Wally gets a skin cardigan

as time goes on the Goop™️ kinda gets a mind of its own. it finds spare puppets - or puppet parts - to use as a shell. mix'n'match, horror style!

my original design for butterfly Howdy was made for this au. do with that what you will

over the years, Wally reads a lot of books - they teach him quite a few things that he would have never known about otherwise, even if he can't fully understand half of what he reads. how does one know what whisky is - beyond a drink - if they don't know about alcohol is?

Wally makes "friends" with some critters that start living in the studio. though he thinks there's one rat - he doesn't know to call it that - and like... one roach - he also doesn't know to call it that. so he thinks the same few strange creatures are around, when in reality it's a bunch. they keep getting consumed by the Goop

Poppy sets up the post office to be more liveable / pleasant. both for a sense of normalcy and it's just something to do! she makes it nice and homey <3 to the best of her ability <3 she can't really see what she's doing <3

Hello readers,

If you are around my age you most likely are struggling with new university life, just like I did. So as an introduction to my blog, I will give you some tips on how to start your uni life and not make the same mistakes as I did.

Academics:

Never skip classes unless you are seriously ill.

Does not matter if your university is strict with attendance or not, attend all of the classes. Depending on your major even one absence can get you behind the course material. If you have to skip the class ask the professor if you can attend it online, or if they can record it. Ask your classmates for notes that they took (but not anyone, pick that person who is very organised, maybe a little bit nerdy, usually they are the ones with useful notes). Go to the TA sessions and open hours for the topics you did not understand fully.

Always go to office hours/TA sessions.

Even if you understand everything fully and there is no confusion, still attend those sessions. Professors and TAs notice your dedication and great discipline to their class and will definitely appreciate that. Depending on the grading system (if being active during class counts towards your grades) it may also benefit your GPA. If you do not have any questions, try to find some. If you did your assignments perfectly still go and ask what could be done to improve.

There are no stupid questions.

During my first year of uni, I was too embarrassed and shy to ask questions during class and in general since I had the fear that it would be too stupid or idiotic but that took away the chances of me learning and understanding my subjects on the deeper level. Believe me, no one will notice nor care about how stupid your questions are, everyone has the same fear and even more to worry about.

Never procrastinate

For many years of my life, I had a huge problem with procrastination, I never developed a discipline, was only counting on my motivation which I got away with during high school but in university there is no other option if you want to pass your courses. The day you get your assignment start working on it, even if the deadline is not until next month. For example, I already started to brainstorm and work on my final projects for the courses.

Take care of your physical and mental health. I will post more about maintaining good health, time management, fashion, self-care routines and balancing social life with the hectic university schedule.

xoxo, Josie

Idk why, but Riku’s Braveheart keyblade design has been REALLY bothering me lately.

I drew some stuff on paper, and I liked the new design I came up with, but I was really not vibing with the cross guard, pommel, and hilt. So I brought the design over to the iPad and came out with this:

Nightmare form (left) and Daydream form (right)

I was so excited that I kind of rushed them, but whatever.

I went for a balanced light and dark design, since Riku has harnessed both as of KH3. Speaking of which, I renamed it Evictus, which is Latin for overcome.

Before you bring it up! I chose not to draw the keychain because I didn’t want it to distract from the main design. It would be attached to the tip of the angel wing near the pommel; and I’d want it to be either Mickey or the dream eater symbol.

Yeah, so what do you think? I wanted to kind of go back to Riku’s dream eater/ Way to Dawn roots with this one!
