Omg yess!! I do know that Machiavelli quote from reading it in a Robert Greene book or something. I did feel the essence of Ambessa’s analogy was familiar, but just a bit off. I couldn’t place it so I assumed the writers made it up. You’re most definitely right though, the writers are for sure familiar with that quote, especially as the underlying themes of it are pretty present throughout Arcane’s whole narrative.

What comes to mind initially is the stuff around Vi scaring away her own monsters & her inadvertently teaching Powder that to scare away something big & scary you have to become something even bigger & scarier, & Vi — being the one to scare away all the monsters — was ofc the biggest & scariest of them all, & so, because Powder looked up to Vi it rooted the belief in her that being a monster that is so scary it scares away all the other monsters, was the ideal. I’ve also just realised Silco’s whole philosophy is literally just that “become the scariest monster”, damn…

I think Vi’s line “What makes you different makes you strong” is also still applicable here as that is what makes the skills of the fox & the lion so strong together, them being so different — & that’s where Ambessa gets the essence of the quote wrong, wolves & foxes aren’t all that different, but in terms of power & numbers a wolf will always beat a fox, so the way in which she uses that quote subtly values the traits of the wolf over the fox, because as a wolf she thinks her way is best, but she fails to mention the lion because a lion is the only thing that would be able to beat her. ALSO lions are heavily associated with gold & that most definitely ties in with Mel, & Mel is Ambessa’s only weakness.

AHHH I LOVE THIS SHOW, thank you for reminding me of that quote.

Now I’m thinking about all the animals associated with characters in relation to the full Machiavelli quote & not just Ambessa’s version of it. Like Jinx/Powder, for example, has the most animals depicted &/or mentioned in association with her by fair: mice, monkeys, ravens, sharks, bunnies, eels, rhinos, piranhas or crocodiles? (whatever her chomper grenades are supposed to be), butterflies, crabs, etc etc — her association with such a wide variety of animals, by the logic of the quote, gives her equivalent skills of these animals, making her very adaptable/versatile asf.

This whole concept has really got my brain cooking shit up there.

Oof

idk if I agree with this 100% cause I think Cassandra loved Caitlyn even if Caitlyn was doing things atypically. Same with Ambessa and Mel but yeah. They would've gone ham if the other were switched

What is a Pet?

An animal, or companion animal, is a pet maintained as a friend and/or for friendship. Household pet dogs are usually tamed pets such as pet canines, pet cats, birds, fish, reptiles, etc., but can also include wild animals like rabbits, guinea pigs, ferrets, hamsters, gerbils, computer mice, rats, snakes, turtles, reptiles, frogs, hedgehogs, chameleons, iguanas, parrots, apes, porcupines, squirrel.

The term "household pet" has in fact been used to define the connection in between people as well as other species given that ancient times. The earliest known composed suggestion of family pet dogs comes from Egypt in 3000 BC where it was pointed out that individuals would certainly keep lions and also leopards as family pet dogs. In Ancient Greece, Aristotle wrote about keeping peacocks as well as peahens as household pets, while Pliny the Elder explained how he had trained his dog to fetch water.

During the Middle Ages, great deals of European kings possessed lots of domestic animals including equines, cows, lamb, goats, donkeys, burros, geese, ducks, chickens, pigeons, turkeys, swans, ostriches, pheasants, partridges, quail, doves, sparrows, owls, eagles, falcons, hawks, magpies, ravens, crows, cranes, storks, heron, woodpeckers, bats, foxes, wolves, bears, otters, beavers, weasels, badgers, martens, lynxes, raccoons, skunks, marsupials, armadillos, sloths, anteaters, substantial tortoises, crocodiles, alligators, sea monsters, sharks, octopus, jellyfish, squid, starfish, lobsters, crabs, crawlers, scorpions, vermins, millipede, arachnids, snails, butterflies, , ants, insects, flies, mosquitoes, cockroaches, beetles, fleas, ticks, worms, caterpillars, grubs, and also plants!

In modern society, many households have at least one pet; however, there are still some who pick not to own any pets. Some may find this choice hard given that they feel guilty if their chums ask why they do not have a pet dog. Others could assume that having a family members animal will certainly take up excessive cash and also time. Still, others might think that having a family pet dog requires more work than they want to take into caring for an additional living pet. Nevertheless, these reasons are usually just excuses for those who genuinely don't care enough to make the initiative required to provide appropriate take care of a family animal.

Short Story - Aster Flowers

a short story written for @quilloftheclouds who wanted to see something about aster flowers! cross posted from patreon!

Patience.

 Love of Variety.

Elegance.

 Daintiness.  

Afterthought.   They say that the aster flower is these things and more, the epitome of the best collection, the base of what a kingdom needs.   Except they look for those things in the queen, the princesses, the court of ma’ams and madam’s that drift through the halls of the castle. They look for the aster flower in the upper-crust, focusing on dainty, on elegance, on those two things and those two things alone.   They forget that patience is not always the ability to sit for hours on end, without speaking or moving. They forget that love of variety is not just a need to travel, an urge to collect endless paintings, and jewelry, and other oddities.   And they forget, always, of the last one.   Fitting, isn’t it?

Purple.   Pink. White.   Red. Celeste.   Hazy. Puff.   A field of aster flowers, stretching out, bleeding into the sunset horizon.   Mary asks, “do you ever think about what’s out there?”   “Sure,” says Aster, as she does near every evening. “I think about it a lot. Reckon that there’s a whole ‘nother world on the other side of that forest.”   “I want to see it. More than anything else.” Mary rolls onto her side, back towards the old crooked barn, with it’s peeling paint and empty stalls. “Do you think I’ll make it there someday?”   “Reckon if that’s what ya wanna do. Can’t rightly say there’s anything that’ll stop ya from doing it,” says Aster, even though they both know that’s not true, even though they both know that there’s a lot to stop Mary from leaving, or Aster from leaving, and all that they can do is wait and hope that something will change.   Things have to get better, right?

Spring.   Summer. Autumn.   Winter. Tomatoes.   Wheat. Pumpkins.   Squash. The crops cycle in and out of season, each field another plane of of existence. Aster walks through them, her basket on one arm, always mindful of the journey’s rules. Take only what’s needed for you and yours. Leave enough for all the rest. Bow to the gazelle should they cross your path and be mindful of the strawberries teeth as you pluck them from the vine.   Servants of the great lords and ladies o the high castle pass Aster by, and others like her, children of the poor, daughters and sons of the aster fields. All are mindful not to look too long, lest the reflection change. All know better than to speak, lest they lose their voice.   Aster picks from every season, careful to leave from the same field she existed. It wouldn’t do to lose another half-a-year.

Ribbons.   Feathers Wolf teeth.   Glass beads. Lace shawls.   Mary laughs as they dress themselves up, donning all that they own, the lace and the furs, the tartan and the flannel, their good winter boots and wreaths of sunflower crowns. In the highlands, the castle hosts a grand ball, celebrating the flowers that give their home its magic, and celebrating themselves, the living embodiment's of flowers, with their petal hair and leaf-lined skin.   But it’s here in the meadows where the magic happen, and the girls rush outside, an amalgam of creation, elegant in their own making as they dip their skirts to the fae, and the creatures that crawl from the field at the moon’s strongest light.   Aster takes the hand of a creature crafted from silver, and lets it spin her around the flowers, leaving naught but laughter in their wake.

Mice.   Blood. Berries.   Metal. Sunlight.   Aster cups it in her hand, watching the butterfly wings struggle feebly. It’s rare to see a mouse out in these parts. They seldom leave the aster fields. And this is why, of course, because the local teenagers, the ones too bittered by the rules and boundaries, take out their rage and sorrow on the small things. The things with no teeth that cannot bite back.   It takes a steady hand to pull the iron nail from the mouse’s paw. It takes a dainty hand to treat the thing afterwards. For all that the mouse is the size of a rabbit, it’s skittish and shy and gossamer frail, and Aster takes it home with her, and gives it her bed, and Mary fetches it berries from the pantry, and they tend it, the two of them, long into the night, and longer still into the next.   And when the mouse leaves, finally, they escort it back to the aster fields, and a flutter of mice run through the flowers, their great butterfly wings softly parting the plants like a shark parts the sea.

Snow.   Ice. Cold.   Hunger. Dark.   Winter brings a vast emptiness to the land, as the stars blink out, as the snow comes down, and the fields close up, and the magic is stolen from those who need it most, and used in the highlands, where the castles are, and the lords and ladies, the queens and princesses, who take the meaning of aster and apply it to themselves.   But down in the fields where the flowers really bloom, the cold seeps into Aster’s veins. She curls up closer with Mary, who is shivering and sick and longing for a land they will never see, and she weaves a story about what might lay on the other side of the trees, and the sun does not rise the following day, just as it will not rise until the first day of spring, it’s heat and light plucked from the sky to fuel fires for the queen’s.    They are but afterthoughts in a greater existence, tossed aside, left to live and fight and die and mourn on their own. And in the darkened hours of mid-winter’s quiet longing, Aster finds within her, for the first time, a want for that to change.

Fire.  Thorns. Teeth.   Bugs. Aster takes to the higher lands, with their castles and maidens, with their lords and ladies, for they have sown but never reaped, and they have taken on the elegance, and they have taken on the daintiness, and they have left the daughters and sons of the fields upon which their riches are built to fester like weeds, to rot like spoiled fruit, to live and long and die and mourn by themselves in the harshness of the endless winter night.   And those which have no teeth remember who offered them kindness, and they might not have teeth themselves but they have friends that do. Aster walks up the winding path to the higher lands, and a snarling pack of wolves with hawk wings and fox hearts walk beside her, for their pelts hang on the castle walls, and their feathers adorn the hair of the flower born queens.   There are many meanings to an aster flower, and most of them often lay forgotten. But tonight, on the last eve of winter, to the tunes of the sobbing stolen sun, Aster reminds the world what her roots mean. And tomorrow, when the first glint of sunlight once more touches the land, she will walk through the woods without fear, and she will see what lays on the other side.
