#my time at portia love

[ryuichifoxe]

Been playing a lot of My Time at Sandrock while recovering from surgery and I'm smitten with Owen ;v; I just got his proposal scene and had to put my switch down to giggle and kick my feet

Arlo is not cool, in fact he is the most uncool guy you'll ever meet

Polin week day 1: Favorite Quote

So really, there was no urgent need to move up the wedding.

Except that he wanted to.

Colin's talk with the mama's through Portia's eyes. Set in the show verse.

"Damn!" Portia cursed as she read invitation sent to her to join Mr Colin Bridgerton and his mother Lady Bridgerton for tea. "I knew I should have encouraged Penelope to accept Lord Debling's offer. That foolish boy is going to break her heart all over again!"

For what other reason could he have to meet with just them and not have Penelope there besides wanting to end the engagement. To take back his proposal. Perhaps they can sue for breach of contract? Penelope was certainly not the one ending this, Portia knew that to be a fact. Or maybe she can orchestrate them being caught alone together, the boy is honorable enough. The ton might not have cared about them being alone together in the past but Portia knows if she makes a big enough deal about it so will they. Or Portia could strangle him with his own cravat. A dead fiancé will gather more sympathy than being jilted a month before a wedding.

As she walked across the square to the Bridgerton House Portia came up with more and more ideas to make sure Penelope ended up married. She will not let this boy ruin any chance their family had of securing themselves. Portia needed every possible daughter wed to increase their chances for a son, especially since Philippa had just given birth to a daughter. It seems Portia's curse of only seeing female descendants continues.

"Portia," Violet greeted her.

"Violet," Portia bowed her head.

Oddly enough this past season the two women have found themselves tentatively reforming a friendship. Portia couldn't tell you how but she suspects part of the reason is how tied together their two families have been, and was about to be even more closely tied. Or was.

"Do you know why Mr Bridgerton has called for us?" Portia asked. She was currently seated next to Violet on one of the couches. A servant recently brought tea and enough snacks to feed a small army.

Violet shook her head. "No he has not said. But it's probably nothing more than some pre wedding jitters."

Portia hummed as she sipped her tea. Pre wedding jitters can lead to a jilted woman.

Violet looked over Portia's shoulder at the door. "Oh Colin there you are."

"Mother," the boy greeted. "Lady Feathering."

Portia smiled. "Mr. Bridgerton."

"Come sit darling," Violet gestured to couch across form them. "Have some snacks."

The boy sat down but instead of devouring the plate in front of him he just picked up one of the sandwiches. Twisting the sandwich this way and that before putting it back down on the plate and the plate off to the side. How odd. Portia couldn't think of a time she has ever seen the boy turn down food.

The boy turned towards the mothers. "I am worried for Penelope, she has been so tried these past few weeks."

"Not to worry darling," Violet reassured him. "It's just the wedding preparations, all brides to be loose a little bit of sleep during the planning stages."

Colin looked down sheepishly. "Well I fear it may not just be the stress of wedding planning. We have been left alone on quiet a few occasions in the past few months."

Portia had to set down her cup. She was going to kill this boy for an entirely different reason now! Twice! Twice now she has had unwed mother to be in her home! They had barely escaped the scandal the last time it happened! Now this boy mocks them by possibly infecting her daughter with his spawn long before he offered marriage? Is this why he changed his mind back then, and why he wants to hasten any and all wedding preparations along now?

Portia glared at the boy, ready to tear into him when she felt a hand grab her wrist. Her glare turned onto Violet who gave her a look that said It's already done. Let's figure out how to navigate now

"I will speak to Anthony about requesting a special license," Violet said.

"And I will see the earliest we can move up the arrangements," Portia sighed.

Watching as a smile spread across her future son in-law's face and a softness fill his gaze at the mention of Penelope Portia found herself coming to the realization that perhaps there was no real urgent need to move up the wedding like he led them to believe. Perhaps he just wanted to be married sooner.

Either way it will bring Portia a possible grandson sooner, and if she was being honest she wouldn't mind having Penelope and her Bridgerton being in charge of the estate. At least she knew it would be good hands.

Also ngl I kinda love the concept of Debling courting Penelope and Colin getting jealous because of it, not because I ship it (he’s barely a character) or because I’m part of the crowd that wants to see Colin ~suffer (though I’m not opposed to seeing him dramatically yearn), but because the reason Penelope specifically is going after this vegan man is so fascinating to me. Like, she obviously doesn’t love him. But she will marry him to protect LW… she’ll marry him to please Portia, that’s so funny.

Girl’s so desperate to escape her awful family life while at the same time keeping her secret, but she also wants her mother’s approval. And she’s so caught up in that toxic mindset that she completely misses the guy she’s been in love with since childhood making heart eyes at her from across the ballroom.

Pen only has her parents’ terrible marriage as a frame of reference, so she probably thinks it’s a bonus if her future husband is much older than her because that could make her a young widow. He’ll leave the country for the majority of the year to fuck off to Antarctica? Oh to be left alone by your own life partner!!!

Meanwhile Portia is enthusiastically nodding behind Penelope like yes, perhaps he’ll die at sea, and neither of them think there’s anything wrong with this outlook in life.

Hilarious.

Here are the two versions of the Unsuur fan art I did, I will never willingly draw his uniform, but that’s me being busy and lazy. I couldn’t decide which one I liked better. Much less suggestive than the prior Qi fan art, but that’s because he’s just so wholesome dumb to me. I lazily painted over a screenshot of the background to make it appear more painterly. I will never lie about being lazy on the backgrounds, but this lazy background took soooooo long. Anyways, let’s all create beautiful game fan art to the brink of burn out

I'm playing Portia for the first time, and the moment I saw Merlin I immediately thought she looked related to Edna Mode from The Incredibles. So...I had to. :)

Also sorry, not sorry for my obsession with characters from Vega-5.

I just wanted to say thank you.

Thank you to everyone who has recently commissioned me, followed me, liked/reblogged my work and left encouraging and kind comments in the tags.

Those who know me a bit more personally know that that last year and a half has been the most difficult and scary of my life. I’ve had to be extremely brave in ways I didn’t know I could be. I’ve been severely struggling both financially and mentally and while it occasionally gets better, I’m very aware that my struggle is not over yet.

I’m currently trying very, very hard to make it as a full time artist and illustrator and am currently seeking an agent. It’s proving to be trying (I’ve had 20+ rejections already), but I know I can’t give up.

But a big part of why I know I can’t give up is you guys. Your kindness, support, understanding, and patience has helped me immeasurably and I don’t know how to properly thank you for it. There have been days where I felt like giving up, packing it all in, just calling it quits on art and everything else. But then I see some of the comments left in the tags on my art and they make my damn heart soar.

You help remind me why I do what I do. Why I love what I do. I hope beyond hope that I make it full time, that I make a living doing what I adore. Then when I’m secure I can use my time to give back to a community that’s been so kind to me.

Thank you 💕

okay so I've rewatched bridgerton s3 with my sisters and it definitely improved on second watch. the mondriches are still very boring and the benedict storyline is just meh but I liked colin so much more second time round. going in knowing for sure that the slightly cringe "womaniser" colin scenes were intentionally a bit awkward because it's colin just trying to be something he knows he's not completely transformed them for me! did they do him dirty with his hair and excessive ruffles -yes! but second time round I could deal. i love the chemistry between him and penelope and think luke newton does act colin's realisation of his feelings for penelope really well especially as until the carriage confession it's nearly all unspoken. possibly unpopular opinion but I really like the featherington side plots they always make me laugh but especially this series. I do still think there's something slightly off with the way this series is paced and filmed particularly the big group scenes but the central story is strong!

Found it funny the two journalist from the past my time games both are pointing in their sprite art so I made a meme. Then I added pink hair girl bc she might be Evershine's journalist? SO ya

I think one of my favourite things about the my time series is the spin they put on the post apocalyptic genre. Idk about other people but for me personally, when I think of post apocalyptic content I usually think of dark, empty, almost hopeless kinda settings. Obviously in the lore of my time that can be attributed to the age of darkness but I love that both Portia and Sandrock are stories of moving past that hopeless time.

I love that they market themselves as cozy games, a complete branch off from most other post apocalyptic sources, and I love the unique and interesting world lore So Much omg. Life after the apocalypse can be cozy! It doesn’t have to be all doom and gloom and life can begin again.
