FINAL FANTASY 16 EIKONS RANKED BY TUMBLR (x)
#6 -RAMUH, THE WARDEN OF THUNDER
"The Warden of Thunder, whose power most lately awakened within Cidolfus Telamon. Dominants of the Eikon most often emerge among descendants of the Motes of Thunder, a tribe who once dwelled in the lands of central Ash—lands that the Kingdom of Waloed now lays claim to. Mayhap in part due to the tribe's comparatively advanced learning, Ramuh is associated with wisdom and judgment to this day."

'“Shame it’s not held there, actually,” Kakashi said. “A friend of mine used to say that playing chess in Moscow was like eating a home-cooked meal.”
Temari let out a sharp breath with her smile. “Asuma Sarutobi.”
“Yeah, that’s right, it, uhh…” Kakashi’s eyes narrowed, amazed. “Yeah, it was him — how do you know that?”
“Shikamaru Nara told me.”
The words fell easily from her mouth, almost proudly, and before she could fully acknowledge them, she saw Kakashi nod.
“Good kid,” he said, then shook his head and swung his bananas about his finger as he turned away. “Good man.”

Everyone's favorite catboy!
I cannot express how mindblowing it was seeing them live!
Bonus Twentyone Pilots related doodles and stuff underneath.
Since I want to talk a bit about some of these.
(Clancy) I dunno, I used the "seizing" look for that vulture and I thought about Paladin Strait.
(Vulture) Vultures are cool, what else to I need to say. It was also part tester for a jacket design I want to do.
(Torchbearer, Clancy era) Well, they're a pair, right? Can't go separating them! That and despite Josh being one of the biggest reasons I do the drums I still don't draw him as much as I do Tyler. I dunno, maybe he needs to get a catboy mask as well?
(No effect 1) I liked how I rendered it.
(Black and white Tyler) I had just wrapped up a round of anatomy practice and wanted to draw something that actually meant something to me. So, "anime eye" Tyler was created.
(Doodle page) I went to one of the concerts recently, it was really fucking awesome by the way, but anyways, some highlights! Piano cat Tyler, Jay and Cole from Ninjago dressed like a ton of the couples I saw (yes, it did rain) and ClancyBearer confirmed meme pertaining to the running gag of them walking down the aisle, Ty said "I do" though, does that usually happen in this era's shows?
(sketch) well, it’s Clancy.
(Kai) Uhhhhhhh. I like Ninjago and it fits.
This section will probably kill the algorithm favor, but who cares!
Also, Balu Brigada is good. If you're going to a show then actually cheer for them, my show-goers hardly did!

Robin: Finney is off at an appointment, so while he's gone, I’m going to cut the sleeves off all of my shirts.
Vance: ...Why?
Robin: He's like 90% of my impulse control.

When it comes to historical research, do you research for things that DON'T exist? For example, foods that are common now but didn't exist in the average American restaurant or grocery in the '80s or '90's? Words, phrases, and entire concepts that are commonly accepted today but unheard of to the average American when Mav and Ice were at Top Gun?
Your writing is so unbelievably good.
not really because I don't care about food, I care about the literary device that is "taking communion." i.e. it doesn't matter what they eat, it only matters that they're eating together, for the plot.
And, okay, showing my little-kid bias, but was there actually stuff in grocery stores in the 80s/90s that wouldn't be there today/vice versa? brands might change, like okay Pringles might not exist but you still have potato chips; and obviously specialty stuff like what you find in your average Asian market might not be commonplace, but, like, were the 90s all that different from today, American-food-wise? its my assumption that they weren't, but I also wasn't alive in the 90s, so. Um, ectocooler Hi-C, maybe? that's the one 90s food I know.
attitudes of course are what change. today's concept of being so QUICK to publicly label sexual identities would be extremely foreign, for instance. obviously people did label their sexualities in the 80s & 90s, people were definitely calling themselves bisexual and such, but probably not the people ice & mav would be hanging out with, in the Reagan-era navy. which is what my fics are about. that's the whole point.
and, also, COMMUNICATION changes. I have never used a payphone in my whole life so I actually have no idea how they work. but they were ubiquitous "back then," and lend themselves to amazingly interesting conflict (omg I don't have enough change to call my boyfriend maverick who's mad at me!!!) which is why I lean on payphones so much in my writing. honestly, im gonna be real, the invention of the cell phone makes telling stories about miscommunication so much harder. instant-speed communication would make certain stories less interesting, which is why a lot of horror movies default to the "no cell service" trope to isolate their characters, or why some teen dramas have the characters reject cell phones on principle (Alyssa or James having a phone in 2017's "The End of the F***ing World" would solve most of their problems, which is why Alyssa smashes hers in the first five minutes and James basically says he views them as a cancer to society--if they had phones the story would be boring, so the writers took away their phones).
I also feel like people used to treat society differently "back then," i.e. Going Out was much more of a thing when there were 10 channels on TV and no one had cell phones, so you Went Out and had drinks & met strangers & interacted with general society to an extent im not sure we do anymore. So that experience is way more fun to write about in the 80s than today. (u can't see me but im seething with jealousy over ppl who were born in ~1965)
idk. im not sure I did a great job reproducing the zeitgeist of the 80s/90s in my fics, bc I wasn't there to have knowledge of what they were like. I got most of my presupposed knowledge about that time period from reading Calvin & Hobbes anthologies as a kid. oh well.
