Shout out to all the Black ppl that can no longer participate directly in the fandom they love because of the stresses of racism 👍🏾 you contain multitudes of value and I'm sorry that the color of your skin and the power of your voice makes people not want to acknowledge that.

I've always drifted towards clever characters, but my childhood self was fascinated with how Sandokan from the titular novel overcame every challenge with a mix of inhuman physical strength, iron-like willpower, and raw magnetism. The scene where someone attempts to flog him and he responds by lifting them up effortlessly and stating that he has in his veins royal blood and will not tolerate being insulted rewrote my brain chemistry.

Im finally reading the court of miracles, I’ve finished the court of shadows 2 years ago and I just have a thought in mind.

I want to have Rafael and Suraj angst so bad

Like, I’m still at the beginning of the book, but I want to see them finally sorting things out, I want to see Rafael having his moment of glory

I want that I need that

I want to see Jeanne and raf being besties AAAAAA

Also totally unrelated but I’m learning French because le cour des ouragans hasn’t been translated In English 🥲

Reading La Cour des Miracels and god... I should love this book.

It has vampires, old aesthetic... a fucking piece of shit protagonist.

But all it managed is making me wanting to write my own version of a vampire court, which I will manage to add into Birds of a Rose.

And I want to make an OC and let him fuck up Versailles.

Write out of spite.

Going through the Court of Shadows tag trying to find posts for La Cour des Ténèbres instead of The Cruel Prince like

Here's something funny that I can't believe I've never shared before.

So I was scrolling through the Hector of Troy tag and I stumbled upon a post referring to him as the "son of Troy".

Now, in it of itself that's all fine and dandy, but it reminded me of something.

In Italian, the city of Troy is referred to as Troia.

The word Troia just so happens to be a mixture of the words bitch and slut.

So yeah, you just end up with these marvelous expressions:

"Hector, son of Troy" becomes "Ettore, figlio di Troia" = "Hector, son of a Bitch"

"Trojan War" becomes "Guerra di Troia" = "Slut War"

"Paris, prince of the city of Troy" becomes "Paride, principe della città di Troia" = "Paris, prince of the city of the Slut"

And I could go on.

Man, do I love my language.

Snapshots of the folk dance 鹿鸣宴 (Lu Ming Banquet). The name refers to a specific type of banquet in ancient times that would take place the day after results of the imperial examination were published. It was to celebrate the scholars who had passed. The dance is about one such banquet.

You can watch the full dance on Youtube.

Heartstopper fanfic(?)

I have this Heartstopper fanfic idea that's a crossover between the "big 3" of gay media: Heartstopper, Red, White & Royal Blue, and Young Royals.

But I dunno if I should write it.

Reblog for yes, like/scroll for no?

TLDR~ A company offered me a job *IF* I cancel "Fins & Crinolines" and don't produce anything for it while I'm working for them. I need an income desperately rn. So either my Patreon gets enough funding to become my income in the next few days, or I have to cancel F&C and take the job...

This has been one of the most difficult decisions of my life. Please share this post with any F&C fans you know, boost it, donate to my Patreon if you can. Anything to get the word around.

Please help! I literally only have a few days to make a life changing decision ;;;A;;;

Where are my fellow Gothic Fiction fans? Surely some of you ended up in here somewhere. Come out I need you.

I want to draw them more, please feel free to suggest scenarios. I feel like they need to interact. Let the fanfiction begin!

I even made a reference sheet for them and everything. I just need to practise some more. Let’s just pretend they’re my OCs.

Edit: there are now more doodles. Find them under the #Sariel's Victorian disaster men tag
