As they say, Fuck it we ball.
This is not your typical fantasy world post as I just came up with a new setting that would be AMAZING in a visual medium.
So basically an unknown number of centuries ago, humanity was a spacefaring civilization that controlled the entire solar system. However, the The Fall happened. Nobody (not even me (or mete me)) knows what happened during The Fall, as everyone forgot it. What happened was that humanity lost their technology, and now everybody is planetbound. The most advenced civilization is venus with a mix of 1990's and 1860's tech, and even then they're in a crisis. You see, venus wasn't terraformed, and so the population had to live in the clouds. After all these years that passed, these cities are running out of fuel to stay afloat, so there's a huge crisis going on about terraforming venus with what they have. And they don't have a lot.
The moon is a very wierd place. It only has medieval technology, but it's the only terraformed body in the solar system. A majority of its population doesn't even know that they once lived on that blue dot in the sky. However, those that do, seek it with religious reverance. The people of the tranquil sea know that the lunar module is still there under the thousand of liters of water that make up the tranquil sea. And they believe that it can take them home.
Saturn has many people, but the thing that made me write this is in the clouds. Before The Fall there were ships deployed for people to live in inside saturn. From these ships, people modified them after The Fall for manual use, as they had forgotten how to use autopilot. These ships were transformed into cities, and they all have botanical gardens to generate oxygen. The cities are piloted by labourers pushing immense gears to move even more massove propellers through the saturnian "atmosphere". They stay afloat by balloons big enough to hold a herd of elephants. I wish I could draw or 3d model them, as the sights are fucking BEAUTIFUL in my head. Not even ai can satisfy this urge of mine.
I think that's it for the loredump y'all. Please ask questions, as this setting is so new that they might signifigantly affect the setting. And as always, @creepymutelilbugger.

shattered on the cliff’s edge, trapped by the tides
Summary: Steve Harrington, disgraced and disowned by his father for moral insanity, has been haunted by eerie dreams of a mysterious lighthouse ever since he was a little boy. His lighthouse quickly turns from recurring night terror to gruesome reality when his superior delegates him to fix the broken light and be the new keeper.
With only his clothes and a pocket watch that only ever shows the correct time twice a day, Steve makes his way up north. Robin, his wife for appearance’s sake, said to meet him there. But Robin never makes it, and Steve soon finds himself trapped in cold, whispering loneliness.
The locals claim that the lighthouse is haunted, cursed, and Steve — followed and plagued by terrible murmurs urging him to leave while he can, and faced with what can only be the ghost of a former keeper — is inclined to agree.

To Shape A Dragon’s Breath
YA fantasy
a young Indigenous girl finds & bonds with a dragon hatchling - the first time in many generations for her people - and is required to go to the coloniser’s dragon academy in their mainland city, to learn how to raise her dragon and the science of its magic
historical inspired setting on the cusp of industrial revolution with steampunk vibes
bi polyamorous MC, Black lesbian SC, nonverbal autistic SC
#To Shape A Dragon’s Breath#aroaessidhe 2023 reads#this is really really good i loved it!#the chapter titles are all like snippets of a story. or like sentence fragments that match up. which is cool#it is definitely more about being indigenous in a coloniser institution than Dragon School - not Super dragon heavy if you want that#I suspect the subsequent books will get into that when she gets big enough to ride and stuff#t’s also def YA! i’ve seen a few ppl assume it’s adult and be like its very young :( but like. I mean its perfectly reasonable for a 15yo m#definitely a Lot of racism and colonialism which is not fun to read! though it's still through a YA lens. there was def a part of me that#was imagining consequences of the narrative as if it were an adult novel#on that line of thought - at the end a lot of it is kind of solved by them going to the king and he's is like. oh no racism is happening?#that's bad i'll deal with those people! which felt like. a little simplistic. but maybe the easiest way to end the narrative for book 1 -#I don't think the author ACTUALLY is going to portray the king as a Good Guy throughout the series - it just felt conveniently like -#a simple YA solution to some very big and complex elements? if that makes sense? (but again - it is YA so it's allowed I suppose!)#some of the worldbuilding (like all the science learning) is probably setup for next books - we don’t really see any practical application#the romances are also subtle and not Overbearing In Book One which i like - leave some space for the series!#also her getting fanmail from a 10yo mixed race girl who looks up to her 🥺#anyway. i really loved it!#oh also it reminded me a little of leviathan. i guess just the steampunk/time period/european culture....#To Shape A Dragon's Breath

Oh hey, colored art of my Roblox OCs finally!
Neither of them have an official name to speak of yet, still - but I do have mild info on them!
The first one is a Spirit Elemental who was formerly human, and died to become the elemental they are now. They don't remember their original home, but they remember how they died and use what they know to traverse the worlds that Roblox takes place around.
The second one is a Noob-styled Dad guy with his baby. His previous marriage wasn't great, and in the divorce he managed to gain full custody of the baby (tbf, the ex in question didn't want custody of the baby in the end). He carries his baby EVERYWHERE with him, mostly because he doesn't really put trust or faith into any potential babysitter to do a good enough job. As a result, he's a little bit closed off and it takes a bit for him to open up to anyone he meets. It's clear his previous marriage caused that closed off behavior...

Älkää tulko ikinä sanomaan, että Steampunk on tylsä genre, siitä on pirun moneksi! Edustettuna tyyleinä mm. omat suosikkini, Prof. Elemental, The Cog is Dead, Steam Powered Giraffe, Vernian Process ja Abney Park.
Ainoostaan Caravan Palace jäi puuttumaan. =P

𝐃𝐞𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐫𝐢, 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐀𝐦𝐚𝐳𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐁𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐧

Growing up in a traveling circus group with his sister Alarice, Demitri knew little of the world outside of the Candlepark Carnivale. As far as this simple, pure-hearted giant was concerned, life was about bringing smiles to the audience’s faces, & dazzling them with his incredible feats of strength. From lifting oversized rocks to hurling them at record distances with playful ease, Demitri has entertained hundreds & thousands of spectators over the years.
One day, however, Demitri began to hear the panicked screams from afar during one of his performances. Soon, the smell of smoke permeated the confused giant’s nose before he began to slowly comprehend that a terrible fire had started somewhere in the carnival. Immediately, Demitri thought of his sister’s safety, & despite all the regulatory rules he’s known, broke out of his established perimeters during a show for the first time.
The panic-stricken giant assessed his surroundings & began running to find his sister. However, as the Demitri turned a corner, a line of vehicles suddenly pulled out in front of him amidst the smoke-filled streets & screeched to a halt. A mysterious, masked gang stepped out from the vehicles, drawing their weapons to stop the giant dead in his tracks.
With adrenaline pumping through his veins & finding Alarice as the only thing he understood, Demitri saw a nearby stone wall plastered with balloons & posters. With a warcry-like roar, he punched clean through the wall, bear-hugging a pile of fallen boulders & hurled them at the armed men, leaping for their lives before the enormous tumbling rocks crushed their vehicles like tin-cans. Paying the downed men no heed, Demitri charged past them and kept on running to find his sister, the only family he’s ever known.
Finally, Demitri began to recognize familiar tents & signs that led to Alarice’s venue, the Crimson Mane. This time however, he looked up to see with horror that the entire stage was engulfed in flames. From the smoke & debris, he was relieved to see the silhouette of Alarice emerging. Little did he know, their reunion this time would alter the course of both their lives forever

Obsessed with the "far away from the stench of the heavens" line in Kaisarion. I think there's a Duffy artpiece brewing in there if I have the patience to find it...

Okay ultimate opinion on Cowboys & Aliens - better than i remember it being Favreau gave us a great time with a fun ensemble Daniel plays a great queer gunslingers feral little meow meow haunted by his past, there is a lot of potential SO MUCH POTENTIAL but like so many films in 2011 it's absolutely not smart enough to say what it wants to so I'm gonna sit here with my secret better version that isn't just Daniel Craig being incredibly attractive and exasperated for 2 hours in leather while putting up with Harrison Ford.
