#who I like a lot her vibe is fun

[coffeecakecafe]

sometimes if I am having a stressful week I find it’s helpful to invent a woman. so here’s More of Achillea, the fallen star. she has a glass magic staff bc that’s fun and cool. I think I wanna put her as like a divine soul sorcerer. I don’t have a game or anything for her I am just out here making people for kicks listen

i KNOW i said i'd draw putt putt branch but i cant control the vibe and the vibe rn is feral clay

he vaguely remembers floyd. vaguely. he knows floyd was...there. at some point when his mind was whole. but he cant see where he'd be. a lot of his past memories were pushed away to make room for survival instinct, so his memories mostly consist of good ones with (Sp)Bruce and the night he left, the argument with JD mostly

floyd's kinda be pushed to the back of his mind, so its like meeting someone new. Clay smells death on him. Decay. But he stands and talks like a living creature.

Floyd confuses Clay. He calls him Pink. He'll remember his name eventually.

Have you ever read the Winternight trilogy? I'd love to see your artist take on some of those characters, especially after seeing your take on the ones from Spinning Silver!

yesss i have! i actually have some sketches somewhere but i was never happy with them so never posted :'D

Konstantin was my fave by far but i just couldnt get his face right in my drawings

here's a neat vid, go watch it if you haven't yet

there's Some things that i don't completely agree with personally, like attributing the Third sin to Materialism rather than Connection (i'd argue that the Ancients had no big issue with being materialistic, considering their golden attires and such- and that going with Connection overall better addresses both the core of Materialism and relationships overall) and then attributing the word Dynasty specifically to asian cultures but that's more history/word definition beef more than anything djgklsjlcgjkd

oh how i'd love to have a debate with this guy about Ancients...

so me and Sam FINALLY watched the last season of Capaldi's Who

and tell me how, after literally over a decade and for perhaps the first time in his fucking career, Steven Moffat wrote a not just tolerable but really actually good two-parter and fully stuck the landing. like the editing and pacing were still a bit off but the storyline was original, fun, interesting and emotionally invested, and most importantly, rather than ending on a damp fart or the most furious autofellatio in history, the final part didn't fumble it and ended in a way that felt emotionally satisfying and like it made sense for the characters. like the last time he successfully wrapped up a multiparter in a way that didn't feel cheap and hollowly disappointing to me was literally The Empty Child/The Doctor Dances, and a) that was in 2005 and b) tbh The Doctor Dances is about a tenth as compelling and memorable as The Empty Child.

so after 12 years of either hackery or great ideas that fall apart in the second act, Steven Moffat writes what I would genuinely consider to be a memorable Good Doctor Who serial. it ends with bittersweet pathos, a solid closer for all the main characters, and sends Moffat's showrunning career out on a genuine high despite failing ratings and budget cuts (and the fact Doctor Who hasn't been consistently good since about 2009). good job Steve. with grudging respect I admit you pulled it out of the bag on this one.

wait what's this there's one more episode left? and it stars Mark Gatiss? and you literally spend the whole episode inexplicably just shitting all over the legacy of Doctor Who by inventing a version of the First Doctor that bears literally no resemblance to the character that William Hartnell actually played, just so you can spend the whole episode saying misogynistic things to run yourself off to how much more Totally Feminist your version was than the version you made up in your head of what Doctor Who was like in the 60s? and it added literally nothing to the season except to take all the wind out of the sails of the actually good finale you already wrote?

even when he writes a good episode this fucker still finds ways to disappoint me.

Sips juice box. I like to think the hexsquad start a garage band (goreage band on the boiling isles) briefly post-canon.

Raine taught all of them how to play (Amity on bass and usually vocals, Luz and Hunter on lead and rhythm guitar respectively, Gus on keys/synths and Willow on drums) and shows up to all their practices and the small shows they get to do (things like classmates' birthdays, big festivals/town parties celebrating Belos and the Collector's defeats after the fact, left-hand relief effort fundraisers and dubiously legal music festivals held in the backwoods of latissa).

Raine hypes each and every one of them the FUCK up and spends hours giving them all pointers on their individual instruments and how to play as a unit and, like, listen. Raine is not a parental figure to any of them, really. They just don't have that kind of connection to anyone but King as their step son. But the kids all think Raine is cool as fuck and they crave positive encouragement in their lives. They love Raine. They'd die for Raine. Kill for Raine. Try new tunings and time signatures for Raine (VERY scary). They like being in a band cause it's an excuse to goof off together, express themselves and experiment with a different type of magic, but most of all, they love being in a band bc the middle aged political dissident fucking their friend's adoptive mom is just really goddamn supportive of them.

Nothing particularly noteworthy comes from the band (you guys can suggest fun names for them that are more creative than "the hexsquad"). It truly is just a thing on the side they do for fun and they all have individual careers and hobbies they're far more interested in (Gus is a teaching assistant at Eda's school (qualified to be full time but not allowed to bc of his age, has to wait a few more years), Amity is a field researcher and budding archeologist, Willow is going pro with sports, Hunter is carving and Luz is pursuing higher education).

The most that happens with it is they record a low quality CD (or magic CD equivalent) of demos and covers they put together (Luz and Willow are the main song writers for the group. Both had a lot of angsty pre-teen poetry they work shopped and repurposed for lyrics) that ended up being sold out of the back of Steve's motorcycle (his main career besides burger flipping and baby sitting, all of which makes him infinitely more happy than the emperor's coven ever did).

Raine not only bought a copy of the CD (despite having already heard them play every song before and having been the one to help them record it in the first place) they purchase a copy for ALL of their parents/extended family (Eda, King, Perry, the Parks, Darius, Camila, Gwen and Dell- everyone). Years after the band unofficially dissolves (re: the kids got actual jobs and started having to deal w/ life as adults), Raine still listens to that CD bc they're just so damn proud of their kids.

knowing what we know about the doctor, i'm kinda struck by how rose's devotion to him is so informed by her very one-dimensional perspective of him? she sees him as a hero, full stop, as someone who is forced to make impossible choices and could never possibly do anything bad, and there is something so fundamentally tragic about the way the doctor looks at her as she's saying "i am willing to give up ever seeing my mother, my family, to stay by your side, simply because you have no one else there and i love you and i wanna help." like there's this recognition from him that her endlessly loving heart and her ability to see the hidden good in people is tying her to him in a way that will be dangerous to her, but he still does not at all stop her from doing it, because he is just absolutely intoxicated by the feeling of being that loved and adored by someone who actually embodies exactly what she thinks he is and loves him for.

I've gone from insane about the pilot when it dropped and so so into it to mildly interested and kind of cringing at the actual first episode. 4 years's not a lot but I feel like I got old

📓 what kind of stan would I be if I didn't ask for Ayla??

(In reference to this post.)

Thank you so much for sending this ask, Sierra! Because I tried answering it four different times before I got sick yesterday and it always ended with me being frustrated and confused about why I couldn't answer. Well, it turns out that's because I kept starting it in the wrong place! So you actually saved me a lot of time and effort, because I haven't started this fic yet. Now when I do write it I won't be struggling because I'll be starting it from the right point!

The gist is that it's little first kiss fic. Kyrahlise and Ayla are out having fun, I don't know yet if it's just the two of them or they are out with the other Shepherds. When they decide to leave, Kyrah grabs Ayla's hand to lead her home and makes a joke about "not wanting the former guide to get lost", there's playful banter/bickering between them with some underlying tension.

At some point on the walk back to the compound Ayla is mentally like "fuck it, I'm just going for it", pushes Kyrahlise against a wall says something like "you're so hot it pisses me off" and kisses her. Kyrah's brain takes a second to catch up to what's happening, but once she's sorted it out, she's very happy about this development! It turns into an impromptu make-out session before they make it back home. (I mean it's Ayla, she's definitely not a soft and sweet first kiss kind of woman!)

Cut to the next morning and Kyrahlise wakes up, thinks she had an interesting dream for a few seconds until she registers arms around her and clothes on the ground, lol!

One of the things I have to decide is if it makes more sense/is more interesting if it's all from Kyrah's perspective. Or if the all but the last bit should be from Ayla's perspective. Either way, I just can't get the mental picture of Ayla getting fed up with not knowing where they stand and just going in for that kiss! The idea amuses me way too much, lol!
