another one that I'm not super happy with, but continuing to mess with it isn't going to help! so here he is! 🦇 there was a lot I was trying to get across in this one, so uhhhhh hopefully it reads.

we're almost out of unique magics now...just Ace (and maybe Grim?) left!

calling it right now that season 3 starts like this

#so confused about people saying the season finale feels like the end because to me it didn't at all #there's like 5-10 issues immediately set up for another season #they're in a happy place at this point because they've both realized their love is bigger than anything else #and makes it worth working on their problems together #the problems are still very much there #both of them have deep self esteem/self loathing issues that haven't been resolved in the week since ed woke up #ed doesn't know about stede's trauma #they haven't talked through anything #and they'll be shit at starting/running an inn lmao it's not gonna go well #and those are just some of the internal issues #then there's prince ricky and all the authorities that would very much like to get their hands on both blackbeard and stede bonnet #because stede just full-on kept using his government name after faking his death. nice one #the crew are not “gone” they're more like off to college for a bit but will probably run into trouble immediately #again because while they escaped to the ship they didn't eliminate the threat (the british empire) #it's not a forever goodbye #ok this got super long already anyway i have a whole fic marinading in my brain until i've finished these 4 wips i'm in the middle of ✌️ #hope we get a renewal soon because i want to see the rest of their story!! #ofmd s2 spoilers #ofmd s2 #ofmd #our flag means death

Apropos of nothing, here's my personal headcanon in regards to Mario and Luigi's surname.

Now, it's been generally announced and accepted that the brothers' last name is "Mario," shackling them with the somewhat awkward full names of "Mario Mario" and "Luigi Mario." My take on this is that the family's original last name was "Marianetti" (likely coming from the more common "Marinetti"). This name was changed to "Marionetti" when the boys' grandmother came over from Italy. (A common occurrence in record keeping at immigration at the time. Someone probably had bad handwriting and smudged a pencil stroke somewhere. It happened in my family for sure).

In Brooklyn, their father went by the last name "Marionetti," which ended up shortened to just "Mario," as oftentimes he would be addressed by his surname only. (Think, "Hey, Mario! Get over here!" as opposed to "Hey, Marionetti! Get over here!")

So, the boys are born and get their names. (Their father's middle name was Mario, and so our Mario, being the oldest, inherits his father's middle name as his first name. Luigi's name maybe comes from the middle name of some uncle who is long out of the picture).

So we have "Mario Marionetti" and "Luigi Marionetti." Which, their surname being a mouthful, gets shortened to "Mario" more often than not, just like their father. And thus we end up with "Mario Mario" and "Luigi Mario," culminating in the "Mario Brothers."

#hello there #this is based on zero science and mostly a way for me to explain the weird last name thing #i also came up with middle names for the boys based wholly on how i feel they sound and look written down #mario's middle name would be alphonso and luigi's would be giovanni #but i just looked up the meaning of the names and they're PERFECT for the boys #alphonso being “noble and ready to battle” #and giovanni being “gift from god” which would fit with luigi being the second younger twin #also if these definitions are off forgive me and google hahahaha #but the bros don't use those middle names in real life except to annoy each and embarrass each other #anyway enjoy that little tidbit while i go back to work

I was rewatching hbomberguys ROBLOX_OOF.mp3 to escape the horrors (as you do), when I noticed something.

Tommy Tallarico released at least two CDs with songs hbomberguy mentiones (because they contain music by Joey Kuras with tiny credits). Printed on the cover for The Terminator's soundtrack is Tommys name, Tommy V. Tallarico.

I wondered: what does the V stand for?

I remembered that Tommy signed a court document which hbomb also brought up.

The V in Tommy V. Tallarico stands for

ANDREW????

the only reason i think you're being honest about not being a homestuck is because you named yourself james and not dave or kat

I am going to make maia arson crimew CEO of this webbed site, as it deserves to be. This is both a threat and a promise.

#arson is such a metal middle name #i want to be named arson and go by Ari for short but im afraid if i did that I'd never get employment #actually lets be real crimew is a fucking metal last name #nonbinary folks really have the name thing down they are GOOD at that shit #sorry everybody i didnt realize its name was supposed to be all lowercase #it is now fixed on the original (obviously) but the version it reblogged has it wrong; sorry

i still think a lot about how technically, it's implied Anubis and Walt started dating each other before they asked out Sadie, and if Sadie had said she wasn't interested they would have gone "Entirely fair have a nice day" and proceed to just go continue to date each other.

Cause like, that was the entire thing. They decided that themselves. That things would work best if they were together (as in both physically sharing a body and also relationship-wise). The "asking Sadie about it" part was secondary. If she had said no, they would have stayed together, because among other things Walt would kind of die if they didn't. Walt and Anubis are technically the first gay couple in the Riordanverse. AND they're in a polyamorous relationship with Sadie. Why does no one talk about them ever.

#tkc #the kane chronicles #riordanverse #walt stone #anubis tkc #sadie kane #saltnubis #< great ship name btw #and for anyone who says ''i dont think Rick intended that'' mind you this book was released like #six months before HoH came out (and. subsequently also. Nico.) #like. Rick was not ignorant of queer stuff at that time. he was actively writing it into HoO/HoH while writing both simultaneously #if Sadie had said no they wouldn't have just gone ''okay Sadie pick one of us and the other will cease to exist on the mortal plane'' #they would have gone ''okay well good luck we have a coffee date scheduled so we're gonna go do that'' #saltnubis is still probably the most entertaining solution to a love triangle in middle grade media i have ever encountered #even some YA media. just ''yeah so we solved both our major problems by dating but like. we know you like both of us sooooo...?'' #also hilarious that meanwhile Carter's romance arc is ''so turns out my first girlfriend was a clone made of pottery'' #''and the actual girl has never met me and this is kinda awkward''

TRY AGAIN LATER

it's like. well. its several things.

(Plutarch's Crassus, trans. Warner)

and also this

(ibid.)

that compliment sounds like an insult, baby.

anyway, there's a fun kind of eroticism in being given everything, in taking things that aren't yours without any real consequence, in climbing towards becoming a Roman Alexander, only for one man to deny you, over and over and over again, at every turn. Sulla tried, Crassus did it better. who would put a butcher in their place? who else knows you well enough to do it? who else can match you step for step like this? doesn't it feel like a kind of intimacy, a kind of—

it's also about the 'even sulla kissed my sword/so you want me on my knees too?' innuendo was too good to pass up. that was actually the first line I wrote, I figured out the rest of this to justify making a comic with it

and finally! the sword line is referencing/playing off of Lucan's Pharsalia a little bit because it fucks hard

(Lucan's Pharsalia, trans. Jane Wilson Joyce)

EDIT: oh, and that's a public domain anatomical illustration of a heart. you know how it is with love and hate.

#marcus licinius crassus #gnaeus pompeius magnus #tris homines #komiks tag #roman republic tag #drawing tag #its about how many ways i can create situations where i have crassus call pompey a brat #the subtext going on here is that pompey and sulla are in the middle of their political falling out #and pompey is like. okay motherfucker. and crassus is something that sulla had under his hand #but uhhhhhh. its not going that well for pompey. because sulla got there first #and left his mark #dont worry tho pompey you'll get him in the end. your descendants are going to marry each other #and name two of their sons directly after both of you!! fucking wild. LOVE it #can't get much closer than that! altho pompey did try something when he married publius crassus' widow #crassus himself however holds true to his statement of 'no one is ever going to touch me ever again.' #he's like. not alive right either so it'd be hard to pin him down anyway #too haunted. your ghosts your dead your ancestors have escaped your family house buddy

My Feemor proposal

A popular headcanon for Feemor is that he's a Jedi Shadow. Shadows are spies and basically detectives. Feemor's lineage has a reputation for being eccentric, infamous, and finding trouble everywhere they go. So, walk with me here, Feemor's an eccentric, famous, blonde detective.

This is Feemor.

#i can't stop giggling over this #sure feemor gets hints from the force but that's not admissible in court so he has to do it the regular way and he's damn good at it #feemor figuring out palpatine is the sith master and his Grand Evil Plan like “it's so dumb it's brilliant!” “NO! it's just dumb.” #many space tweets have been made going #“was anyone going to tell me that galaxy famous detective Feemor is not only a Jedi but brother to a High General AND grandson of DOOKU??” #sound off on who you think should be the phillip to his blanc i personally think it should be a famous space actor ala hugh grant #yeah i think benoit blanc is married to real life actor hugh grant phillip's just his middle name #feemor #star wars

For a little dose of reality: here’s photos of the boys when they were the actual ages of Buck and Bucky they portray in MotA. (Bucky 28 and Buck 25)

They’re not too hugely different but it’s obvious they’re younger. Let that sink in. One of the things I always try to call attention to in war films is how much older the actors are than the real people, because it’s something we don’t really notice.

#also was no one going to tell me Callum’s middle name is Robilliard #fam I have never laid eyes on that name before what universe is this #masters of the air #mota #john bucky egan #gale buck cleven #this kinda thing makes me emo

i saw that

I'm sorry tumblr user demilypyro for my strong opinions on the most popular girls name from 1996 to 2007 :( it WILL happen again #banthenameemily2024

#ok despite better judgement im going to be genuine the tags lol... when i was in middle school where was five. FIVE. Emily A's #so i couldnt even go by Emily A. I was Emily A 3. and i always felt like the outlier. the emily that was wrong. #it felt like a club i shouldnt have been a part of. none of the nicknames fit. no one would call me anything else. #i know. 2 or 3 trans women who go by emily now and im like #how do you find peace and comfort in an identity i never did #its strange that emily has always felt like a costume im wearing incorrectly and its the truth for other people #i think. for lack of a better terms #i have always been jealous of the fact people can change their names and have it stick. jealous of people how find happiness in womanhood. #anyway #you named yourself emily???? #l + cringe +lmaooooo #I will be running for president under these terms

Headcanoning his full name as Dean Mary Winchester

#chuck refuses to allow his middle name to be spoken into existence #when Dean gets that look on his face after learning he's named after his grandma it's because he's thinking #“REALLY? IT WASN'T JUST MY MIDDLE NAME??” #“We thought you were going to be a girl and we didn't have any other ideas” :/ #Now I'm thinking about the guy named Mary in Psych

[yokyoaaa]

I think they’re a cute pairing! Just some teens sharing a common interest

Also can be seen as platonic!! even tho i jst draw them kissing- completely ignoring that one the other doodles can be seem as platonic LMAO

Anyways, hc time:

Paint roller’s main hobby is to skate, not paint

But he wishes to improvise his painting skills and met up with adeleine

He absolutely adores her and her painting skills

Adeleine teaches him how to draw better, but also unintentionally teaches him the painting magic (that led paintings came to life)

He thought it was so cool it became his main ability (plus he was a commoner to begin with, there’s no skating ability)

In the meantime they’re friends, adeleine also picked up skating

But she’s bad at it :( not stopping her from trying though

#anyways- what’s their ship name?? #adopaint? #yeah im going with that. it’s adopaint. #adopaint #paint roller #paint roller kirby #adeleine #adeleine kirby #kirby #my art #kirby fanart #kirby ships #can you tell when I became lazy in the middle of drawing this
