geralt "i will NEVER deadname my best friend" of rivia

"he will ALWAYS be dandelion to ME"

#also 'including milva in male costume' goes SOOO HARDDD #everyone say thank you regis for citing a dozen precedents to pull that off. the effect of knowing your herstory <3 #c: geralt #s: i want to be by your side #geralt is like the reverse situation of a transphobe who 'has known you for 20 years so he can't call you something else now'#it's that he has known dandelion for so long that he can't call him anything else but his STAGE / CHOSEN NAME :')#the 'viscount dandelion' is so funny to me #i can accept that he's a viscount but I DRAW THE LINE at calling him by his birth name #milva: 'you can accept that he's a viscount??'#also it's lost in english but that his stage name and birth name begin with the same letter & thus sound. jaskier... julian...#not the 'chosen name starts with the same letter as the birth name' stereotype. and swag #the witcher books #book: lady of the lake #excerpt #one thousand million years ago in posada:#dandelion: 'don't you want to know my name' | geralt: 'but i already know your name. it's dandelion'#dandelion: 'but it's not my real name. don't you want to know my real and famous name' | geralt: 'not particularly'#geralt has the same relationship to dandelion's birth name and viscount status as dandelion has to kaer morhen 💀#geralt and dandelion are like i don't care who you were back then i cannot comprehend your sad backstory all i care is about who you are no #i think this kind of friendship helped them both slightly detach from their exaggerated levels of perceived self-importance #geralt from his 'woe is me i will never be seen as a normal man' and dandelion from 'im the most interesting man in this tavern'#only SLIGHTLY detach. when they're around each other they temper expectations. but when they're apart it grows back

fairest of the fair

#hi! im alive and back and etc.#six the musical #six the musical fanart #katherine howard #thinking of that post going 'i think eventually you become the person you needed most' and like maybe that's the thing with my art #this started out as a redraw and <improvement meme> i think i've finally reached the stage where i'm making the things that my younger self #aspired to create. like i can do this now! i've reached That level of technical skill! tiny me would be so proud. it's very gratifying #redraw from august this year actually. i've made a surprising amount of improvement HAHA maybe it was the adamandi stuff getting me #back into digital rendering. i think that obsession has quietly slipped away but yknow. one never truly leaves a fandom. just less intensit #also speaking of old fandoms! we're back with the six stuff haha. as of writing i'm in the midst of blog revamp- figuring out how to chill #multifandom status doesn't mean ditch all the old stuff ! but i do feel much freer and less stressed. i think hiatus has been good for me #notes on this piece particularly: redraw about cutting hair and thinking of the lyric above. also lowkey &j ref + pinterest poem excerpts #of female suffering. and maybe a dash of amanda heng let's walk inspo. this work is really just full of contradictions..#1. the mirror and cutting hair as an act of self liberation 2. the & is part of the lyric but also a nod to &j (in another iteration it was #pink but the white looked better) and like. &j is really all !!! girl power!!! etc. and i was like hmmmm. also matching pink shiny aes #3. the frame as a cage; the mirror as a self reflection idea (ie. saville's propped insp) but also as a sign of vanity. 4. sparkly costume #and pretty pose- read one too many poems about women feeling like they have to be pretty even in their suffering. something i wanted to #explore. and also in 5. the show itself... all you wanna do is. despite all the dancing and pink and sparkly the content of the song is #darker. and even though it's a story of her suffering it's still presented as a shiny fun pop song and ajshdhfhfh ok... 6. the lyrics fall #outside the frame. sort of a caught inbetween. sort of a trapped in the narrative and yet #within the frame it's all. vaguely handwavy breaking free vibes. like i said contradictions?#7. cutting off the long ponytail vs the pull my hair lyric at the end. yeah #8. the blocked off & looks a bit like scissors. positioned to cut right at the neck #anyways yeah irl remains hectic! but if i get around to more doodles they'll appear here :)

So earlier our oral communication teacher told us we'll have an activity soon where we'll have to deliver a speech

BUT we have to play as a character while we do it (political figure, celebrity, whatever)

And my mind IMMEDIATELY went to Alexander

So guess what I'll be preparing myself for in the next few weeks :333

#we're even supposed to go in costume so i ordered a cravat 💀💀💀#im so hyped up for this but im probably gonna freeze up again like when i did morris' eulogy on alex in grade 10 💀#pamphlet status #Alexander Hamilton

i have a post on trad folk wear in england brewing away in the drafts but i'm not strong enough to actually send it off into the world

#i tend to think twice posting content that could be used by nationalists or racists particularly in light of recent events #but the gist of what i was trying to say was how deranged it is how we (the english) live in exceptionalism and denial of our own -#working class and sneer at its associated diverse folk traditions. what makes things 'english' is a fraught topic & worthy of study #id even say its important to arm yourself with cultural literacy - when the concept of 'england' is consistently hijacked by racists #this was inspired by a costume blog that i like that did a series of posts on folk wear around the world and the post for england was suits #just...suits. but is that not the image of ourselves that that we've cultivated since the 1800s? a contrived one most definitely.#no blame on the poster they were covering literally every country which is a huge amount of work & it was an incredible project #and of course most places have clothing far more impressive than anything we could come up with. but still. i think. i think.#is the intricate farmer's smock not beautiful? is the boatmen's cobweb belt not worthy of study?#are we doomed to consign ourselves to drabness for the sake of status? we sold out our soul for supremacy i fear #anyway i am once again thinking of zakia sewell's my albion where she discusses this

Bronze Age Gold Plaque, Wiltshire Museum, Devizes

Made from gold sheet less than 0.1mm thick, originally it was fixed to a backing, probably of wood. The plaque would have been sewn to an item of clothing, perhaps a cloak.

Proof that "Remember the Time" is still the most accurate movie set in Ancient Egypt made in the past 30 years.

#Yes that statue on the bottom left is real #I took that picture at the Chicago Field Museum #Also have you seen that video? the visuals are really on point #The most inaccurate bit of costuming is MJ's gold wing thing #Michael Jackson #Ancient Egypt #KMT #Kemet #Ancient Kemet
