#i’m still developing this idea

[happy-emmdings]

Been enjoying your polls lately! do you have any headcannons on how you think cs live their married + family life? Like their habits, their kids, their jobs, their last names etc etc (also so happy you have asks now!!!)

Hi!!

Yes, I sure do have some! Maybe more then you asked for😅

But I have to say that I didn't watch season 7 and though I have a general idea what happens in it, I could not possibly be more confused about its timeline so... let's just say „I've elected to ignore it".

For their honeymoon, Emma and Killian go on a long cruise along the East Coast (there are many advantages to marrying the real Captain Hook), maybe to Florida and back and they make several stops along the way in different places. Killian explores more of the strange land without magic (and with way too much technology) with Emma as his guide and it’s very fun and wholesome

Of course, they inevitably interact with regular people and there is so much comedic potential in that. Obviously because Killian is 200-year-old pirate from another realm but it's time for Emma to realize that she's not the normal person constantly bewildered by the existence of fairytale characters anymore... she's one of the magic freaks now, she has to stop herself midsentence before she accidentally says something that would sound insane

Just imagine Emma and Killian finding themselves at a bar, getting to know some friendly strangers and they start playing Never have I ever... infinite possibilities how that could get increasingly weird

They have an adventure in the Bermuda triangle too, because nothing can be normal for Storybrooke's heroes

Hope Swan Jones is born 2 years after the end of season 6 and she adores her big brother Henry, even though their dynamic is still more like young uncle/niece because of the big age gap but they get full sibling energy when it comes to an argument

Swan is her middle name just to confuse everyone

I've always imagined Hope with dark hair and green eyes even though blond Hope seems to be much more popular. Now I'm contemplating the possibility of dirty blond

The jury is still out on whether or not they would have more than one kid but I suck at coming up with names so🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

Emma continues to be Storybrooke's sheriff which at this point just means being the Savior. Let's be real Storybrooke hasn't enforced a single law since the first curse was broken and it’s not like deputy Captain Hook has ever had a lot of regard for law, but... They try to maintain order more or less. Things do get more peaceful, but it's still Storybrooke so of course stuff happens from time to time but nothing traumatizing or apocalyptic. Nevertheless, Emma and Killian solve occasional mysteries together and keep Storybrooke citizens safe

Killian is the first member of Belle's Book Club, because he supports his friend Belle when she decides to start organizing fun activities at the library. You just know he read the original version of The Odyssey. Other book club members include for example August, sister Astrid and Leroy (who is only there for Astrid and their will-they-won't-they non-discreet romance annoys Killian to no end because he's not a bloody matchmaker why are they asking him what the other thinks of them)

The Swan-Jones family goes sailing on their family vacations every summer!

Make it a joint family vacation with Belle and little Gideon. Belle finally gets to travel and Hope and Gideon become unlikely childhood friends.

There's also at least one Swan-Jones and Charmings camping trip that includes Snow teaching Hope and Leo how to make a fire and build shelter in the wilderness, sword duels with sticks, stargazing, campfire songs, so many campfire songs! (they all have such beautiful singing voices and they should use them) This is also time for Emma to bond with her parents and experience something she didn't have as a kid

"Eat some bloody vitamins" dad Killian vs. "Popcorn mixed with milk duds" mom Emma

Killian Jones cannot look at a child he has some connection to without being like "Welp looks like I have to teach this little pirate everything there is to know about sailing and navigating by the stars and secret maps, I simply must, it's the code..." So Hope can tie every kind of knot there is and becomes an expert in old timey boat stuff by middle school

She loves it because 1) it's a special thing she and her dad can bond over 2) it makes her feel cool and smart 3) she's a total nerd 4) she inherited the innate love for the ocean that runs in her dad's side of the family

Hope has magic but she's not super good at it, Emma helps her practice and sometimes pulling an innocent prank on dad or grandpa is part of the practice

Killian makes so many dad jokes. And so does Emma

Killian sings Hope to sleep when she's little and Emma reads bedtime stories to her

Sometimes she reads something like Winnie the Pooh and Hope asks if Winnie the Pooh is also real and Emma shuts the book and stares at the wall and has an existential crisis for a second because who knows at this point he might as well be??

So, these are some of them that I salvaged from the absolute chaos that is my notes app... Thanks for the ask❣️

Ok cannon will probably case me to revise this idea but I’m already attached to what I’m doing with smoked cheese so I’m not above throwing cannon to the wind if needed.

But anyways idea-

Burning spice taking an interest to smoked cheese because his ability to control monsters is like a weaker version of his ability to make minor creatures go berserk so he just grabs smoked cheese by the scruff and declares him his protige and smoked cheese is being dragged against his will back to the golden cheese kingdom by a fucking beast cookie and he’s just silently panicking because how tf does he explain he’s been blackmailed by dark enchantress into joining her side against his will and now this fucking beast has taken an interest in him and-

Smoked cheese is having a bad time and golden cheese is probably going to have a worse one YIPPEE

Burning spice is the only one here having a great time

so I’ve been in a bit of a superbat frenzy lately… so to salute the dc fandom and specifically all the fic authors I’ve stalked for the past few days…. here

[sweetandglovelyart]

Got genshin brainrot so I’ve been stewing on my old fan oc and her story; decided to give her a redesign only to scrap it and start anew.

Here’s an assortment of wips and sketches and whatnot from the past month

I’m still not satisfied with her design so this is goin to change like a thousand times probably.

Also if anyone has any idea of how to design a proper polearm for her plz hmu I can’t do gayshit impact style designs for the life of me.

it’s with depression that i fear i have to say, i think for a long time (too long really), zuko doesn’t reach out to his uncle during his retirement in ba sing se, not even for the much needed guidance he could use, because he considers it part of the exhaustive list of reparations the fire nation (and he himself) owes

Design concept

2024 reads / storygraph

Walking In Two Worlds & The Everlasting Road

YA sff set in the near future where an opensource augmented reality is commonly used like social media, and there’s also a completely virtual fantasy game version

follows an Anishinaabe girl who who’s the top player in the VR game, and is constantly fighting to keep her place against the misogynist neo-nazi group in second place

as well as her real life, dealing with being a shy and self-conscious teen growing up on the Rez, and her brother having cancer

and a Uyghur boy who’s moved to her community from China after finding acceptance in an online community (even when he doesn’t agree with their more extreme views) - but when he gets to know Bugz, he has to decide who truly deserves his loyalty

great mix of sff and culture, the future while also very real community traumas of the past (and present)

Last night before going to bed I had three important thoughts that made me think I should jot them down. But then I thought no, how could I forget these. I won’t.

Picture me, the next day, unable to remember the even the general topic of the thoughts.

[chuchayucca]

Tbh I'm surprised nobody else has brought up the idea of Richard being abused too

It feels like a lot of potential for it and an explanation (aside from their status) as to why Roy never got help for it either -- Richard thought it was normal.

Now this is just making me imagine a scene where Carmen remarks that Roy will "grow out of it" (it being his behavior) like Richard did in front of the other Hatz and Ross and Robert just share a Look

Anddd now I'm wondering how much Carmen knows

TW for discussions of fictional CSA/SA and mentions of alcoholism

Me too, I thought it would be an obvious assumption but I guess not.

Exactly, I’ve seen the fandom explore Carmen and Roy’s relationship regarding his CSA but never with Richard. I think it’s ashamed because there’s a lot you can write for the relationship, even outside of their CSA.

Omg that’s a good scene idea. The Hatzgang are realized there is a deeper issue, and Roy has to unfortunately unpack that generational trauma. I can see how learning his dad is a possible CSA victim, like him, starts pushing Roy to tell his parents but also discourages him because basically Richard unknowingly knew Roy was SA but never recognized it because he doesn’t know he was SA too. I also believe Richard normalized his brother’s actions too. It’s truly devastating how Richard indirectly contributed to the normalization of Roy’s abuse but he doesn’t know it’s SA. He believes those fun “games” him and his brother played were normal family bonding activities and is happy to hear his son is getting along with his brother, a brother he admired when growing up.

These headcanons might change as the series continues and the deeper I get into research.

I headcanon Carmen doesn’t know anything but has suspected something was off a few times. She never thought anything of Richard’s behavior at first because he alway been this way. When they became adults, she started questioning as Richard still had issues with intimacy at that point in their relationship and his alcoholism was at its worst. (Short ver: Richard started drinking at a young age to cope with trauma of his SA and the Uncle encouraged this, buying him alcohol for various reasons. Modern day, Richard is a functional alcoholic but has gotten better with his drinking)

As of the moment, Roy’s parents are unaware of Roy’s CSA. The day the Uncle died, Roy did get in trouble but for separate reasons. Carmen and Richard were mad at Roy for hanging out with “plebeians” and sending them to one of his uncle’s private properties. Roy doesn’t feel comfortable telling them yet because they’re snobby, judgmental people, so he assumes they won’t react well.

i hope in 2025 people stop equating someone exhibiting common signs of mental illness and or a mental health crisis as them being a red flag

theory of love, episodes 9 and 10

the episode recap reminded me what i was yelling at khai about last time; it was the kiss while third was asleep. khaotung only friends bts voice don’t kiss people when they’re sleeping,

if they’re trying to make me feel sympathetic for khai via almost killing him. it is NOT going to work.

hi is third entering with khai’s blood still on his shirt?? extremely sexy of him….slightly less so now that i’ve remembered they said khai was there for a full day but you know. it’s about the principle of the thing

this scene very cute and charming but it’s also giving me anxiety. what if you need those later. who is going to clean those out of the pool.

uhhhhh. sorry. jesus. khai beating up un was genuinely and viscerally upsetting to me. i don’t really know how to talk about it because i realize i’d be assigning several frames that clearly aren’t intentional when ultimately the choice is just downstream of the romantic conflict. but the implications in context of other choices they’ve made about un are just. so bad.

deep sigh.

AUGH. i want to like this scene and it’s not not emotionally affecting? off is compelling me actually! but also the show absolutely has not done enough for me to redeem khai at this point (not least because he was just beating up un for NO fucking reason five minutes ago jesus). so i’m just like. what do i do with this....

and yet! gun atthaphan the actor that you are.

i don't even know what to say about the implication that un kissed a girl because he was sad about two dating lynn. where would i even start.

rolled my eyes so audibly my roommate asked me what was wrong

i’m going to kill the writers for that weight comment. oh it got worse. neen i need to rescue you and earth from this show….

As some of you might’ve seen: I’m no longer posting art on Twitter, so Tumblr is now the only social media I’ll be consistently posting art to. However: I’ll also be posting it to my website and possibly other social media platforms in the future.

I also post monthly sketch pages to my Patreon (April’s is on this post) with early access for Patrons, and I’m hoping to add more things to it soon!

Thanks everyone for your support (your tags mean a lot to me!) and I’ve put more of my thoughts in the tags.

when do we start gatekeeping pnf from the creators they gotta be stopped before they fuck it up

[githvyrik]

in my worldbuild I’ve been making there are 3 types of Beings that are like. “sapient and sentient” I guess for lack of a better way to say it but essentially they’re all just types of creatures we could theoretically converse and share ideas with. anyways they’re humans (which are Magic now), fairies (which are basically dragons), and angels (which are more like super magical shape-shifting bone parasites) and humans are like man I’m soooo jealous of the way fairies have super strong magic or how the angels have like wings and junk but whatever we have our own magic and meanwhile the fairies and angels are maddeningly envious of human hands
