Goddamit, so I was right about Queen of Lothric not being Gwynevere herself but rather a descendant (like Rosaria is)?
Last Protagonist, whose Japanese retranslations ( x ) I am always using for Bloodborne lore because my trust to localisation team is entirely broken, has some abandoned Dark Souls retranslations bits too and I literally just decided to check it fdgfgdssfd
(sorry for no ingame screenshots rn) ^ Initially my arguments were that 1) Gwynevere is still referred to as princess in DS3, as though she never became a queen 2) Gwynevere's name is still mentioned in descriptions and by Yorshka, so obscuring Queen's name would be weird and 3) Rosaria also has connection with Gwynevere through a miracle but is not her, so connection via the item should not be too much? But "she's like surrogate of THE goddess of these concepts" has subtlety of the bat in the face
(Reference by Lokey Lore ( x ))
The ribbons by either side are a reference to Gwynevere's ones, and also were not featured on the concept art:
At this point I wonder if this statue IS the Queen of Lothric herself, then, and ribbons were added to further hint at the connection! At the same time, as we remember, Miyazaki initially wanted to make Gwynevere modest, dignified and motherly but could not break the heart of the artist that designed the one we know and love fhdshfds I now wonder whether this depiction is closer to how he wanted Gwynevere to be initially, and reusing that vibe for a relative would be a very smart move?
+ Gwynevere still has a painting of herself in Dark Souls 3 with the vibe of her as it was, so maybe it never was implied to change in her history, after all?
But yeah @val-of-the-north we were right and localisation team is putting sticks in the wheels like it ALWYAS does but what else is new
tenth doctor the most relatable doctor because i too have a massive ego and ignore people who are attracted to me 💖
closeups (including text and image ID) under the cut, snip snip snip ✂️
[Image ID: a sketchpage-style series of eight digital drawings of the tenth doctor. they are all bust/torso up, and each is doing a different activity in slightly different canon outfits. the first depicts him in his glasses fiddling with wires. in the next he's wearing classic 3d specs, and appears shocked. in the next he is smiling with his face close to the viewer while donna stands annoyedly behind him. in the next he side-eyes the viewer with a neutral to serious expression. the next depicts his sad, wounded face from the aftermath of the conflict in End of Time Part Two; his suit jacket is slightly torn and his eyes are watery. the next has him examining a chip pierced at the end of a plastic fork he's holding. in the next he stares off to the side, slightly confused. in the last he's wielding the sonic screwdriver, pointing it upwards with a perplexed look on his face. there is penciled text scribbled around the drawings, reading "Ten!", "god complex", "GEEK CHIC", "adhd icon", "everyone want her sooo bad", "baby girl", "go whiteboy go!!!", "farsighted (for the DRAMA)", "stylish bedhead", "there's like, four of him", "SAD.", "WET.", "PATHETIC.", "will not STFU", "has canonically eaten human blood :)", "omfg?!", "needs therapy", "kinda toxic :/ (free my girl martha)", "if a drowned weasel was also the most beautiful girl you're ever seen", "misses his girlfriend :(", "PRETTYBOY", "asexual SLUT", "he's sorry. he's so, so sorry.", and "ALLONS-Y!". there is also sparse radial gallifreyan and crude sketches of the tardis and a chuck converse shoe. /.End ID]
my brain goes "ooooo you are gonna draw tenth doctor fifty bajillion time" and i go "thanks brain you are correct. we are in agreement."
I think that the party's communication issues can be summed up as "man, is it awkward to tell someone that you want to spend the rest of your life with them if you've only know them for a few months? Probably."
Last week episode has me still on a chokehold and when I saw the preview of Vash and Knives meeting in the piano room, this exact scenario appeared in my head.
Having just read the "Fifth Moon" chapter of Trigun fueled the whole thing, too.
So yeah.
Will it happen? Probably not.
Did I have to draw all of this anyway? Absolutely yes.
Andy: ...And I'll be like, (as Torbek) uh, Torbek is now playing Agdon Longscarf, who is very much alive, well and healthy! Uh, don't ask anything about it.
(Torbek clears his throat)
Andy (as Torbek): Ready?
Twig: Yeah! I gotcha back!
(Twig, Gricko and Torbek begin snapping in sync)
Andy (as Torbek, to the tune of Jet Song):
When you're a hare, you're a hare all the way from your first cigarette to your last dyin' day!
When you're a hare, if the fur hits the fan, you've got brothers around, you're a family man!
You're never alone! You're never disconnected
Hmm-mm! You're home with your own
When company's expected, you're well protected!
Then you are set with the capital 'H'
which you'll never forget till' you're claimed by a witch
When you're a hare! You! Stay! A! HARE!
(Torbek clears his throat, returning to his usual rasp)
As promised, (@ask-vanessa-wright ) my chocolate chip cookie reciiiipeee hehee!! 🍪🙏🏾💕 Everyone looooves these in my church so I know it'll be a hit at yours tooooo! (or just your homes. Looking at you athiests.) ✝️
-These cookies are chunky NYC style (@askingbrittaperry approved! heheeee!) You're all so welcome I shared the recipie out of the goodness of my hearrrrt 💟💕
Ingredients:
125 g unsalted butter
100 g light brown sugar
75 g white granulated sugar
1 medium egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
300 g plain flour
1 + 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
1/2 tsp sea salt
150 g dark chocolate CHUNKS (If you can't buy them, roughly chop a bar!!! Even betterrrr!)
Method:
Ideally with a stand mixer blend the sugars and (softened) butter together until creamy 🧈
Add in egg, vanilla extract and beat again! Get all those school grievances out on the mixing, mhm. 🥚
Add in plain flour, salt, baking power and bicarbonate of soooodaaa! And then mix until you get a rough dough!
Before the dough is completely together, add in the chocoooolate chuuuunks (chunks over chips anyday, and has to be dark, you hear me??) Mix until well distributed 🍫
Make balls of the dough - I like to eyeball these to my liking, I usually get at least 17 good-sized cookies out of this. But you could weigh them for accuracy, going no higher than 120g (makes roughly 8)
After rolling them, store in a tub IN THE FRIDGE overnight. Yes, you heard me - overnight! Overnight cookies will always be the best and anyone who tells you otherwise clearly needs the help of G O D. ✝️ If you really need them on the day, an hour or two in the fridge before baking will still give beautiful 🍪 cookies
Preheat oven to 180C Fan, or 200C regular! If you know your oven gets crazy hot crazy fast like some scheming jezebel at Greendale then maybe go for 160-170C instead 🔥 🔥 👽🍃
Line a baking tray and place your cookies on. The bigger the cookie, the less you place on the tray, they WILL spread slightly. Trial and error will teach you how many you can fit!
Bake the cookies 12 minutes minimum. Check them after 12 minutes. If they still look uncooked/uncoloured, give them another minute or two. With cookies, EVERY SINGLE MINUTE COUNTS!. One minute overtime, and you might aswell have baked that poor thing in the pits of H E L L .
Once baked, leave on the tray for at least 30 minutes, they'll still be cooking on the tray as they cool!!
Now you take your masterpiece and you share it with good, honest people. Don't forget to utter a prayer together before eatttttiiiing!
Pairs well with milk before bedtime, too. Good for kiiiids and monkeeeyyyss 🥛 🍪 🐒 👶🏿
Well, there's my first baking interweb blog poooost I suppossseee! 🍪✝️ Ask me if anything at all is unclear, ooookkaaayy?? 💕🎵💖🙏🏾
