#wings and feathers

[qwartzy-rereads-x]

noooo, kotori

apparently even with all this foreshadowing that was going on (i would say that CLAMP was laying it on pretty heavily), a lot of japanese readers were still shocked when they actually went ahead with this

I made an art/anatomy tutorial about birds! I hope people will find it helpful!

OK JUST REALIZED I NEVER SHARED the red-wing blackbird inspired Wing Shawl I crocheted over the summer 😌

It’s SO heavy and warm, it’s only just starting to get cold enough for me to wear it out.

Man what the hell, saw someone on Instagram say “I mean sharks are definitely machines” on a video of that wonderful woman who removes hooks from sharks’ mouths 💀 “Whether or not sharks are sentient and experience joy, idk,” they say, on a video of a shark acting distant until she had a hook taken out of her throat, after which she became very cuddly and friendly with divers and would just lay in their laps. Not to mention these new sharks with hooks would just keep appearing to get their hooks removed! Some people do anything to assign fishes the title of “unfeeling machine”..

Prompt 274

You know what is fun? Baby Ghost Jason. You know what could be even more fun? Ghosts are Dragons. 

Jason? Aware of none of this. 

He was on comms, y’know listening and rolling his eyes at Dickwing, who used his real name, really Dick, he mocks. It’s just a stakeout, nothing new there, honestly boring when he could be blowing something up instead. It should have just been a stakeout. 

Yet there’s something suddenly there, something behind him. Something that causes his hair to stand on end and his comms to spark into static like some sort of horror movie. Something, something with clawed hands with corpse-pale skin tipped in black, stained or dead or something else, tilting his head up and up and up as he’s frozen. 

“A child, out here? Alone?” a voice crackles, hisses, hums, and purrs, somehow all at once, unnatural in its tone. He can’t move, he needs to move, he has to move, but it’s like the space around him has gone cold and dead, like he’s stuck in the Pits once more as claws hold his head and his vision blurs. “Sleep, child. Rest- we’ll be home soon.”

melting wings were worth it to meet you

childhood promises that sound like marriage vows, got it

honestly, this is where clamp's bait and switch tendencies begin to show with kamui and fuuma. for the first five volumes, we see kamui through kotori's eyes, and fuuma is the protective older brother who looks out for them and their relationship.

with this volume, we finally see the earlier moment of kamui's promise to kotori recontextualized with /fuuma's/ promise to kamui, which is so important that we get this two-page spread with feathers to show its significance.

Oh and here is the template. Spn fandom, knock yourself out 💙

And guilty I may be But don't give up on me In the wake of the Odyssey We will still be thick as thieves You and me, still thick as thieves
