olympics coming up…… athlete aus on the mind….. satoru as a swimmer….. unreasonably large wingspan…. huge hands..... thinks “official” competitions and tournaments are boring because he can’t use the goofy purple googly eyes goggles he likes to practice in…… practices at ungodly hours solely because he likes when the pool is empty because that means you’ll dip your feet in at the edge and be there to greet him with a kiss when he’s finished his laps….. they bring up the stats board and it’s just his name ten times before the next fastest person and he could still lap them, and even tho he’ll always put so much pressure on himself to be the best, it’s worth it to have you hold his face and tell him you’re proud of him... he’s gotten so much merch from events and sponsorships and he used to think they just created clutter but that all changes when you start to wear his clothes (esp the ones with his name on it… he’s not proud to admit that does Something to him)…. always looks up to the stands when he finishes a race and if he knows you’re not there, he looks right at the camera, draws an infinity sign with his fingers, and blows a kiss (which, some commentators routinely call “unsportsmanlike conduct” but he doesn’t care, and always, publicly says he’ll pay the fees if it means blowing a kiss to his girl at home)
jeanette lee, a brooklyn-born pool player nicknamed the “black widow” for her tendency to wear all black outfits and “lure [her] opponents to the table and eat them alive.” some of my favorite photos of her :)

"Once this song made her knight laugh. Maybe...maybe it could bring her back?"
Hello I'm SO pleased to introduce you to Princess Violet (a wizard!) and Captain Denner (a bodyguard!). You'll see more of these ladies and their story soon!
When I heard this cover by Morgan Clae I knew I had to animate it immediately!!! You can hear her entire song here (it's on Spotify too!):

meet the female engineer! she's part of the conagher family, though not as involved in the kind of engineering that her uncle and great uncle were in. despite being a very gifted mechanic, she preferred more domestic endeavours like tuning cars and air conditioning units. however, the promise of wads of cash and possibly seeing her cousin Dell made her conagher DNA jump into high gear upon seeing the blueprints for the sentries for the first time.
the first question people often ask her is, "why the turtleneck?". the response from a less-than-human sounding voice often answers the question. thanks to an unfortunate "accident" she had her head lobbed from her shoulders and reattached. of course, such endeavors would be less than ideal for the normal person, but the engineer is known for her amazing inventions and with help from the medic she surgically reattached it. allegedly, not to her original body. at the very least, her back pain inexplicably went away after this incident. nervous system failure perhaps?
