How I Discovered Toro Inoue aka Sony Cat....Nya Nya!

(Cover pic found on Doko Demo Issyo Wiki)

Hiya everyone! 💗💋🍓🌸Sweet*POP🌈🍭💀🌟 here! I thought it'd be nice for me to share this story of how I was able to refresh one of my childhood memories somewhere from last year or 2 years ago. As in how I discovered Japan's precious furry Sony mascot, Toro Inoue

When I was in middle school from 2003-2004, there was a show called Cinematech that was like a slideshow/segment showing video games(mostly openings for the games) even outside of North America like Europe and especially Japan, and it aired on the video game tv channel that I've always loved watching, G4tv.

On one of the episodes of Cinematech, this sweet, precious and cute Japan-exclusive PS2 treasure was shown to end that episode, which I only saw once. Since then I have kept this memory locked inside my mind. As years went by, I have once used internet to search for pictures and videos of that game, but....never any luck. I thought that I would at least treasure that memory.

But then in my adult years, I saw this white kawaii Japanese bobtail neko buddy everywhere in media relating to Sony Japan or video game cats, and felt like that I have seen this character before.

That's when I found out about his actual name Toro Inoue. And then I watched a video on YouTube showing the gameplay of "Toro to Kyuujitsu" that was so familiar from when I was watching my all-time favorite G4TV show Cinematech.

That was the moment when I realized that I have finally found the game I saw in that Cinematech episode. Plus....I have to admit that my only fault for never finding the game was because all this time, I've been typing "Taro's Day Off" because I could have sworn that was the title of the game, but then I've learned the truth that Toro to Kyuujitsu was really *Toro's Day Off*. I've been mistaking Toro as Taro for all these years.😅 Plus, I instantly remembered seeing a familiar old woman who was a host from the shrine in a cutscene because she was the last figure that I saw in the Cinematech ep (before I changed the channel).

Also after finding out the Japanese name of the game, I did a translation lookup for "kyuujitsu", and learned that it means "holiday", "day off". "Toro to Kyuujitsu" means "Toro on Holiday". So now I am very happy to have finally found this game. A childhood memory had been solved.😊

And I happen to love Toro Inoue, Sony's mascot in Japan very much now. I'm just so fond of him nya nya! 😺😸😻😽

Thank you for being a part of my life Toro... Sony Cat....I love you nya nya!🐾🐈💖🍣🎮

Fic Recs!

I decided to grab a few fics that I was recently introduced to as well as fics I haven't seen get a lot of traction in the space. This is just a personal list that I wanted to share!

@corporalicent's Rhaenicent Fics at AO3 - Cata is a beast when it comes to writing this ship (as well as other fandoms!) and has some really creative AUs out there: I mean come on: Nun!Rhaenyra and Novice!Alicent? We're here for that!

@lullaebies GenderSwapped!Green Kids AU Protector of the Realm on AO3 - So Helaena is now the only *son* of Viserys and Alicent, and Aegon/Aemond/Daeron were born girls. How intriguing is that! They are on a break for right now but go give that fic a look! Not to mention they write Aegon III/Jaehaera content that I just think is chef's kiss.

@dragonsoftheeast Firebender!Targaryen/No Dragons Dance AU Fire Made Flesh on AO3 - Um Hi, Helaena being the one to lose the eye? Actual good political matches. Unparralelled usage of High Valyrian and Valyrian Culture world building???? Sign me the fuck up! Dote is an amazing crafter of such a unique and fantastic canon divergence and I am constantly surprised more people aren't squealing about this amazing story that packs in so many twists and turns and is truly so thoughtful.

@theothermaidoftarth writing some Baela/Daeron and is currently working on Nettles/Cregan check out Song for Evermore on AO3 - Rare Pairs are a precious thing in any fandom and my girl is killing it with some fascinating ideas and utterly fantastic characterizations. We love IC AUs!

@gwenllian-in-the-abbey is leading the Baela/Aegon ship with her solo fic All Kings Are Beautiful on AO3, an 'Aegon was named heir' AU, as well as her other co-written work - Gwen's work reads like a historical fiction novel and that's really my favorite kind of thing. I haven't been able to read everything she's done but man, the nuance! The stakes! the ideas! She brings what I love to call an Old School A Song of Ice and Fire fic vibe to HotD space and I mean this with the highest of praise.

@selfproclaimedunicorn is writing Sins of the Father on AO3 because what if Rhea and Daemon actually had some kids but things still went sideways? - HELLO! MISA? Misa's talent for burying her fingers into every character we see and pulling out all the bits and bobs that make them tick? Is just.. I want to write this well when I grow up. The way she has seamlessly altered canon to the point where I'll see gifsets of scenes and go 'Where are Yorick and Ella?'. Also she has an Alicent x OC fic, and I would lay my life down for Aldreda Farwynd, my tall seal mommy.

@mimikoflamemaker is writing Daemon centric OC fic the False Dragon on AO3 - I haven't been able to dive into this yet but have talked fic and plotting with Justine. Their passion for the source is palpable and her creative ideas deserve to reach more people! Vaerra and Elyas are fascinating OCs with intriguing connections that you do not want to miss!

@jotterjots / @bronzefuryfic is also writing a 'What if Daemon and Rhea had a daughter' AU, Bronze Fury both on tumblr and AO3 - JJ is a real one and I always enjoy her insights. I actually had NO IDEA! that she was writing fic but from what I've read, it looks fantastic!

@acrossthesestars is writing Haunt Me, an Aemond War Bride AU that has me by the throat on AO3 - It's not a list without mentioning this amazing fic that's almost to the finish line. Alex's command of conflict and characterization where characters are allowed to be imperfect is something more of us need to dive into! We love a byronic lead in Aemond where all his edges and issues are fully acknowledged, a wily and fantastic female lead in Wylla Karstark, and just an overall amazing AU where these characters are clawing for their happy ending.

@branwendaughterofllyr is writing a 'What if Vizzy and Daemon's youngest brother lives and has a daughter' AU, A poison Tree on AO3 - I haven't been able to dig into this yet but it's just such a fascinating and original concept to make this Dance make a little more sense, and bring more high stakes. She's a long time ASOIAF writer who is passionate about the source material and here to show you what this world can be. Do go check her work out!

Wow. Well...what can I say?

It's been a wild ride. 7 years of SpringleDongle, granted the last year has been a hiatus on Tumblr (I've been actively posting in the official discord). Posting the archive was also a massive task- 625 total posts on the new blog!

I've lost the several thousand followers I had on my old account, but that's just the nature of things. Hopefully I can regain a new audience as new asks are responded to, and new arcs posted!

I don't know what to say. So many people made this blog what it is, and I've had so many friends support me during the downtime. I'm in tears just thinking about how much this blog means to me.

I want to personally thank a few people.

@springlockedfoxy : My love, my life, my husbunny. Without you, I would've given up a long time ago. Thank you for the love, the inspiration, and your endless support. I'm so excited for our new life together.

@foxygogogo : My precious sibling. Without you, this blog wouldn't exist. We created a universe together, our silly characters and story, and of course Stan. Thank you for always being enthusiastic and enabling my bullshit stories, and being the best Funtime Foxy ever.

@ask-springsecurity : My beloved best friend, whose ongoing support and enthusiasm for our story has kept me coming back again and again. Hopefully I can push you to continue your blog too!

@sproingtrep : My blog wouldn't exist without you. Your blog was such an influential story for so many people, myself included. Thank you for rooting for me over the years, and best of luck in your non-FNAF endeavours!

@primalarc : You've always motivated me to better my art, try new techniques, and pushed my characters with Mike bullying everyone. You are such an incredible friend, I love you so much. I treasure that FNAF brought us to eachother, made our characters interact, and let me come to meet you!

@pinkusponkus : My absolutely darling, soft and gentle friend. Your support for me on and off the blog has meant an immense amount over the years. Thank you for always being gentle, encouraging and supportive towards me, both on and off the blog. I'm so lucky to have met you.

@ravi-and-rainbows : Your ever-passionate love of Jingles made him into so much more of a character than he was originally planned. Your ongoing love, support and shitposts never failed to cheer me up and make me laugh. I'm sorry I killed Jingles. ):

And of course I have so many people that I can't even think of the words, but I love and appreciate you all! A few more names I want to put here, dedicated thanks to my server members:

@livingneptunian , @inga-don-studio , @unknownthedemonrabbit123 , @misty-bun , @the-night-trio , @ask-jollibee-and-co , and so many more!

Moving forward, we are BACK.

The inbox is open, the story is active, and we will keep going! I have so much in store for all of you that I can't wait to share.

So much love to all of you.

From Erik, Springle, and the entire crew here at Freddy Fazbear's Party and Pizza.

I always come back.

Talk to me about BtOM and/or its sequel? I've seen some of the webcomic and would love to know more

Hooo boy! Thank you so much for your interest! This is going to be a long post! BtoM is my original webcomic, set in the Aztec empire in the 15th century, before the arrival of the Spaniards. It's not trying to be historically accurate but I did quite a lot of research at the time to get cultural stuff and place settings right. It features, as main characters, Metztlitototl, a boy who fell from the sky; Mictlantecuhtli, god of death; Tezcatlipoca, god of, heh, a shitload of things LOL, and his highpriest Itztli, a human. They try to navigate their feelings for each other while finding out where Metz came from. It's a gay love fantasy drama. (while I and the characters often refer to Metz as a "boy", he is not underage) I came up with the basic story idea over twenty years ago and developed it over the years (with the help of a writer who is not part of it any more) into a fully fleshed out story. At the moment it spans six full chapters with about 30-40 pages each; the seventh and last chapter is still unfinished. I have taken huge breaks over the years, coming back to it again and again. I have always promised that I will one day finish it and I still intend to keep that promise. The shutdown of smackjeeves had me loose my main platform for hosting the comic and while I have plans to make my own website, at the moment it's hard to direct people to where to read it easily. That's why I set up a new tumblr for it, but editing all the pages and making the posts is also a huge effort I struggle with. (So sorry!!! I will try and be better!)

It's hard to share stuff because it's a comic script, not a novel, but I'd like to share something from chapter seven, Mic and Itztli trying to figure out who or what Metz actually is-

Itztli is sleepless, he roams the temple grounds restlessly, deep circles under his eyes. He coughs violently and spits but doesn't see the blood mixed with his spit. At dawn he comes upon a secluded area where a fire must have been burning not long ago, a qualming brazier and lots of footprints make him curious. He inspects the scene and finds almost but not completely erased drawings in the earth, depicting... Metztlitototl? What is the meaning of this? Is that... the boy? "It is as I thought." Itztli whirls around at the voice, and Mic stands before him (not the skeleton, but the "nice" Mic). Itztli squats down immediately, heart pounding. "Lord of Mictlan." Mic ignores him. He looks around, sees traces of burnt incense, and even a feather of a bird, hinting at a blood sacrifice. Without looking at Itztli, still studying the area, he says: "Tell me about the night you found him."

The sequel is a very indulgent PWP that has them figuring out their feelings even more and basically all four of them end up in a polyamorous relationship haha. It was my pleasure project to write when the mood struck and has reached the same length as the main story document (oops LOL)

My favourite is not the main character Metz but Itztli, my precious poor boy who'd do anything for his capricious master. He's probably the reason the sequel exists because they needed more space to flourish <3

The main characters, Metz and Mic, are soft and lovely and I love them to bits but they are also, well, easy. Also, Mic is obviously inspired by Dream. My teenage self had a type (and still has). xD

Feel free to ask me more detailed questions! I will endeavour to post more comic pages soon!

[heyimdove]

hello! I hope you are having a marvelous morning. afternoon, or night, wherever you are at whatever time you happen to see this.

"drinking buddies and diaries" was the first fic I ever read, before I had tumblr or an ao3 account. since then I've read it at least a dozen more times, most recently finished a few moments ago. ao3 has now reported that I've opened it over 250 times, so that says something! when introducing some of my dearest friends to good omens and ao3 in general, this is what I tell them to start with, and everyone has had very similar reactions to myself.

this fic is so marvelous from start to finish, and its undoubtedly one of my favorites I've ever read. muriel is positively adorable, and im a sucker for jealous aziraphale and a crowley who wants both distance and to be as close as possible after the f15. everything about this story has me squealing, and a few scenes where I was on the verge of tears at how cute it was. even the more suspenseful scenes were so beautifully emotional and the entire thing amazingly written. im going to undoubtedly read it many more times, and share it with as many people as I can.

thank you for putting your writing into the world and giving an overworked teen something to look forward to reading at the end of the day! xx

!!!!

I can’t lie to you; I’ve spent the morning wriggling and crawling through a back injury and a justified but still crap attitude.

This message really could not have been sweeter or more appreciated. It means so much to me that people read Drinking Buddies at all, let alone reread it, and then to those who go out of their way to reach on here? Angels. You are an angel (in a Muriel way, not a Michael way, of course).

Thank you for your support and for clearing away my grouchiness with your kindness this morning. ❤️ and for sharing my fic! Truth be told, if I think too much about that, it chokes me up a little bit. I’m very grateful to you.

Ps. It’s easy for me to say “don’t overwork yourself” without knowing what’s going on in your world, so I won’t say that. I’ll just say your rest and relaxation is precious and I hope you never forget how much you deserve it in heaps.

Writing things.

***

I was tagged by my amazing friend Teo aka @teodoraioana221 and I've been meaning to do this for AGES (probably just a few weeks but it definitely feels longer lol) but life kept getting in the way... still keeps getting in the way, actually, but today I'm saying: fuck it, I'mma do this now. 😂

1. How many works do you have?

Oof, I have no idea, honestly. Everything I ever wrote is unfinished anyway, so if I count in my shortest drabbles, too... probably about a hundred or so? 😅 I genuinely have no idea, though, please don't make me count. 😂

2. What fandoms do you write for?

I'm not in any fandom so I don't write for any fandoms either.

3. What are your top 5 stories by kudos?

I wouldn't know. I barely get any feedback, but that's because I'm so shy about sharing my writing in first place. My Little Blurbs tumblr is somewhere in the shadows, almost entirely unseen. 😂

4. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?

I absolutely do, as often as I can! ❤️ If someone takes precious time out of their day to leave me a nice comment, it's mindboggling and it always makes my day, so I am happy to show my gratitude for that; I really love replying to comments!

5. What’s the story you wrote with the angstiest ending?

My stories hardly ever have actual endings. 😂 I'd say that the Ballad of Hallie and Lancie is pretty angsty, though, as a whole.

6. What’s the story you wrote with the happiest ending?

Again, my stories hardly ever have actual endings. 🤣 Thing is... I don't write my little blurbs for endings anyway, I just love exploring human interaction! Most things I write are very everyday-convo-esque and don't really serve a purpose other than me wanting to write dialogue. 😂

7. Do you get hate on stories?

Nope, but as I said above already, I'm shy about sharing my writing, only a few people see it.

8. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

No actual smut, no, but I do include subjects like sex and intimacy, because I love that kinda stuff.

9. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?

I didn't actually write any crossovers, but I sure do share ideas with friends sometimes, about how fun it would be if our characters were in the same world... and I'd totally love to draw some of those scenes one day. 🤣

10. Have you ever had a story stolen?

I don't know but I doubt it.

11. Have you ever had a story translated?

I dunno?? I switch between German and English when I write, depending on my mood and energy level (high energy level: English, low energy level: German), so sometimes I translate my own stuff when I want to post it to my blurb tumblr. 😂

12. Have you ever co-written a story before?

Also, nope!

13. What’s your all-time favourite ship?

You mean, among my own OCs? I don't even know, I love all my ships, whether they're endgame or not but I think I can say that Charlie and Kieran will always hold a special place in my heart (although I wouldn't want to write the same kind of relationship again these days!) and also Orla and Mick are pretty darn important and amazing! :D

14. What’s a WIP you want to finish, but doubt you ever will?

All of them. Honestly, I wish I was better at finishing my one shots but unfortunately, I'm not. 😂 I'd really love to write the last few bits of my Ballad of Hallie and Lancie, though, because these two became so important to me over the course of the last six months, and I just love them and would love to wrap their teenage story up one day!

15. What are your writing strengths?

I don't think I have any, but if I had to say something, I think it would be 'dialogue'. It's what I love most and I had people telling me that they love it, which is really cool!

16. What are your writing weaknesses?

Everything. 😂 Writing in English is hard for me (not a native speaker) so I really do struggle with everything. It's all for fun, though, so that's cool and I try not to overthink it too much and just do what I feel like doing, without any pressure. I prefer writing badly over not writing at all!

17. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a story?

I do that all the time, as I'm not a native English speaker. 😂 I'm kinda hoping that I can switch it around one day, though. I'd love to throw in a dash of dialogue in my own language one day but I'm not actively writing any German characters at this point so I guess it won't happen any time soon.

18. First fandom you wrote for?

My own. 😂

19. Favourite story you’ve ever written?

Quite a few, actually! I love my most recent WIP of Sofia and Hallie having a chat after Craig's passing. Also the Sofia&Craig convo about their oldest son... and once I can think of other stuff I have written so far, I might mention some more. 😂

—

That was a lot of rambling lol. GO ME! Tagging everything who wants to do this... it's been super fun! :D

happy birthday, Yoichi ♡ 早乙女与一生誕祭2022

Back in November 2015, when season 2 of the anime Seraph of the End was airing, I wasn't well. I was desperate, going through deeply confusing and painful emotions and my whole life was devoid of purpose. I didn't know who I was anymore. I had no strength to deal with my continuously toxic family. I had no friends, just one special person who unfortunately, maybe even unknowingly scarred me. All I know is that I chose to watch that anime and when this character, Yoichi Saotome, showed up I felt something. After a few episodes, he said a few words that resonated with everything I've been through - "I am still under that bed". I realized I related to that mental image. It was extremely real to me because I was indeed hidden for the longest time, just like him, and I was hurt and guilty and horrified by life. Just like he was.

From that moment on, I felt some sort of unique, heart-warming, inspiring connection with him. To me, he became more than just a character in a story. My devastated mind saw nothing but light whenever I thought of him. Yoichi showed me who I wanted to be, and showed me how to be that person by simply existing in an anime series. To this day, I still wouldn't know what to call him - my guide? My angel? My alter ego? My friend? There's one thing I do know, though: I feel loved thanks to him.

I, who used to wallow in self-hatred, am now writing love letters to my future self every now and then. That's what the picture above shows: it is a screenshot from one of my edits with Yoichi, in which I included one of the hand-written love letters I wrote to myself in my native language.

I don't think I could express in words how absolutely messed up I was before discovering Yoichi, and to what extent he healed my very soul. I hope it is at least clear that it's... a lot. Yoichi means a lot to me.

The story that this character comes from says that Yoichi was born in 2004. His birthday is on November 23rd, so he turns 18 today. I couldn't really make something noteworthy for him - I usually post a drawing or an edit - but that's okay. I am writing this little letter, after all. In one way or another, he will always, unquestionably help me.

Happy birthday, my love, my guiding star, my sweetie. Thank you for everything.

---

Special thanks to the people I met along the way who I shared this fragment of heart with. Shout-out to @telesticmajesty who is infinitely precious and essential to me, @shadsie who drew my wonderful tumblr icon and other amazing Yoichi drawings, @bardbaric who gifted me a lovely Yoichi drawing and has always been kind to me, @grimbunny who takes great care of my love for Yoichi and even brought me a Yoichi keychain from Japan, @hyakuyaaaaaas who appreciates me endlessly and always lets me know she supports me and gifted me fantastic Yoichi drawings, @amarevia and @houdadraws and @mysillystuff and @ammerynth for the unforgettable commissioned artworks, @fauxvvalor for being my personal favourite Yoichi centric blog, @rivaillicious and @solarshadow and @redsnowelora for being perfect friends who I shared my love for Yoichi with, and the list could go on but I'll stop now...

You guys are all special to me. Maybe it doesn't sound like a big deal, but you all meant something good for me which I'll keep close to me for as long as I live. I hope that on one lonely day, this gets to be a reason to smile. Thank you!

-Dan

omg I'm having fit because I typed this up in my notes app yesterday on the subway and just realized I never actually sent it you lmao I'm a clown 🙈

Anyway what I wanted to say was for the writer feedback thing: I actually think about this a lot because you're one of the fic-writers I take literal notes on because you have the Midas touch imo -- it's all gold 💖

Three things about your style that stand out to me the most are

You take risks! I don't mean the sex stuff (although that's great and I love it), but like you don't shy away from the gritty, painful, raw stuff that cuts deep and oozes all over the place. Your Daniel is no saint, and neither is Armand. When I read your D/A, I feel like I'm reading them the way Anne intended them to be read, and I think that's why CPMS nestles so perfectly within canon DM to your readers.

You show and don't just tell! It's never just "Armand is sad," you really weave the narrative to create the experience of physically being in the room with him, of seeing, sensing, knowing he's sad. When I read your stuff it's not just a well-crafted sentence on the screen; it's a full-body, five-senses experience. I usually need a joint and nap afterwards lmao.

You really nail the whole Ricey technique of weaving in the past with the present in a way that's organic and contributes to the overall story. Nothing you write is filler because it all serves a purpose.

tl;dr: reading your stuff makes me a better writer and overall enriches my entire life and ily, I can't articulate myself well enough atm but i'm so glad you're in my fandom 😭😭💘💘

lol it's only natural that clown things happen here at clown school (and I swear tumblr is the biggest clown of them all when it comes to formatting stuff)

Anyways this has had me all verklempt all day because these are really big compliments and I'm not even sure I've earned them but the sentiment is just so nice.

Risk taking is like...the most important thing to me in my work. I feel like if I'm not doing something unexpected there's no point in even opening a doc. I have to push a boundary with the setting or what Armand decides to do, and then it becomes really scary because I pushed the boundary! And now I have to share it and hope people trust me enough to go along for the ride.

And I'm so happy that so many people do! Because Armand and Daniel are both so precious to me and so near to my soul in so many ways. Sometimes my life feels like a series of experiences that happened just to culminate in me understanding them, which makes sharing my interpretation of them a vulnerable thing. So to hear that they're that right is hugely validating ♥

And then like- I've been in this weird place with writing right now. where I feel like I like what I do, and I can read other author's works and identify what I love about what they do. But I can't figure out how to polish my own skills enough to achieve the same thing. I can't figure out how to take my descriptions to that next level.

So yes. Hearing that I'm doing good right now and if I only ever stay doing things like this it'll still be good is a huge comfort to me.

So just. Thank you 🥹 Hearing that my little hobby has that much impact is so gratifying and fyi if these notes are an actual thing i'm going to bully you until you show me them just saying Thank you for always encouraging me ily 💖💖💖

SUPERNATURAL 1.11 "Scarecrow" | REVIEW

okayyy!!! i am reviewing select episodes from [tumblr].com's favourite show of all time-- Supernatural!! i've watched SPN 30 trillion times, and i just started rewatching it AGAIN, and as a mythology buff, i thought it would be fun to explore the fact vs fiction of some of the episodes :)))

OVERVIEW: Sam and Dean Winchester must defeat an unnamed Vanir god who resides in an orchard and preys on young couples who have been sent as sacrifices by a creepy town.

RATING: 8/10. i liked it!!!! it wasn't unrealistic (i thought at least), the scarecrow was scary. good plot, good ending!

AVAILABLE AT: idk where u can watch this for free sorry. if you have Prime or Binge, or maybe if u live in the US u can watch it on the CW or something

all episodes // next episode

if you haven't seen spn and intend to watch, do not read below unless you want spoilers!!!!!!

if you know more about what i'm gonna write below, please feel free to share or correct me!! ^-^

THINGS I LIKED / FACTS:

good ending 👍i like that the Vanir god actually takes the old couple when he's unable to get Dean and Emily (the niece who nearly gets sacrificed).. i think it's nice because it's brutal-- the old couple didn't imagine that they would end up being the sacrifices themselves but that's the way it went, and i liked how indiscriminate the scarecrow was. he just took anybody.. it was the blood that counted.

related to this-- when the old lady said to Emily, "that's what sacrifice means... giving up something you love for the greater good." that hit really hard i think. family having to sacrifice someone they love is the MOST COMMON trope in mythical stories ever... the gods are always asking for the sacrifice of people precious; see Agamemnon, Artemis, and Iphigenia for instance.

now, i've seen this episode 5 million times, and for some reason i've always thought that the god specific in this episode was Freyr??? but upon rewatching, Freyr is never explicitly mentioned, only that the god is a Vanir.

given that the townspeople are asking for the town to be fertile and their crops to grow despite the bad weather, i think selecting a Vanir god did make sense-- the Vanir are typically associated with prosperity and wealth. Freyja & Freyr, perhaps the most well known Vanir, together are responsible for good weather, gold, peace, beauty, fertility, etc., so i think that part checked out.

ok so let's talk about sacrifice first.

blood sacrifice was central part of the Norse religion- blót was the practice of killing animals (and sometimes humans) and splattering it over people, buildings, stones, etc. to get blessings.

analysis of animal bones dating back to this time period also suggest that oxen were specifically killed at the neck so that blood could spurt out like a fountain for the purpose of blót, which i thought was pretty interesting.

now. the human sacrifice.

the Vikings didn't really keep written records of their rituals and practices, so most of what we know is gathered from Christian-era writers, and as a result, we have to take some things with a grain of salt because those writings can be biased.

but, one guy who i keep seeing is brought up is Adam of Bremen. Mr. Bremen was a German medieval chronicler in the early 11th century, and in one of his works (Gesta Hammaburgensis Ecclesiae Pontificum), he writes that at the Temple of Uppsala (a large Norse temple dedicated to Thor, Odin, and Freyr):

The sacrifice is of this nature: of every living thing that is male, they offer nine heads, with the blood of which it is customary to placate gods of this sort. The bodies they hang in the sacred grove that adjoins the temple... Even dogs and horses hang there with men. (read more)

now, even though Mr. Bremen wasn't actually there to witness this, lots of people accept his version of events because they're highly detailed.. maybe the most detailed records we have of what went down for the Vikings in terms of ritual practices.

so, as far as accuracy goes so far, there isn't much about sacrificing a man and a woman together annually to appease any of the Vanir, but i don't think the idea is too far-fetched given the existence of the blót as a real tradition.

BUT. i did find something else.

Mr. Bremen also writes about a disturbing practice in which men were thrown down a well to drown alive in the hopes that townsfolk would receive wishes.

a note in Mr. Bremen's writings describes a large tree that was always in season regardless of it being Winter or Summer or Spring.. hmm...... that's a bit eerie.

Near this temple stands a very large tree with wide-spreading branches, always green winter and summer. What kind it is nobody knows. There is also a well at which the pagans are accustomed to make their sacrifices and to plunge a live man into it. If he is not found, the people’s wish will be granted.

i think this tree could be where the SPN got the idea of "if you burn down the central tree, the Vanir god will die too".

AND. there's also this idea of "if you don't make the sacrifice, your wishes won't come true".. which i think is exactly the idea that the townsfolk in this episode were following.

regarding the well sacrifices-- wells in Trelleborg, Sweden was discovered to contain the bones of both animals and children as young as 4 years old which seems to agree with Adam's account of the well ritual.

anyways. to conclude. this episode is not solid in facts, but it's not utterly ridiculous either. i think they did a decent job trying to tie fact with fiction, and of course, at the end of the day, the show intends to entertain not inform.

THINGS I DIDN'T LIKE:

i feel like there could have been more Norse references idk.

there were markings on the central tree that Sam and Dean burned down, and i THINK that the mayor guy (Uncle Harley) had a ring that matched the runes/pattern on the tree?? but the lighting from these early episodes was so gloomy and dark it was difficult to see.

i also wish they had actually named who the scarecrow was :((

PLEASE RELEASE SOME DEVELOPMENT NOTES FROM THIS EPISODE @ SPN WRITING TEAM.

For the fanfic writer ask game! ^_^

🎁 🌻 💌

ugh, thank you so much, you're such a top-shelf mutual. 😭💞 my girl went to work a little bit ago and i am so bored without her around, life is a void.

🎁 Have a piece of a WIP you want to share?

oh for sure, i'd love to!

i haven't worked on a D:BH fanfic in a couple months 'cause i've been in simon snow purgatory, it is all vampires and wizards and dragon boys in my brain these days, but i do (!!!) plan on finishing my convin Titanic AU, so i'll share a snippet of that (that i hope i haven't already shared with you before lmao), plus, since i mention unrequited love diseases in one of my other answers here, i'm also gonna add a snippet from one of my back-burner simon snow drafts.

both are below the cut (i lied about the cut, Tumblr won't let me add one) (i tried like four times, this app is so rude) at the end! 😄

🌻 How often do you read your own fics?

oh, very often. the thing about me and my fanfics is that, while i don't post things much at all, i am always writing. i have sooo many first drafts lying around that'll probably never be seen by anyone but myself, some of them are even written longhand in physical journals.

for a long time, i've written with myself as my only intended audience. and i mean, most of the time i'm still my only audience, i have a very nervous personality and sharing things makes my brain itch a bit. (but y'kno, i am working on that.) (i've been doing six sentence sundays and wip wednesdays with the simon snow fandom the last two weeks and that's been a delight.) (a terrifying delight, but still a delight.) so yeah, i actually sit around and like… read my own fanfics for fun all the time, over and over again. i'm extremely fond of my own stories.

💌 Is there a favorite trope you like to write?

unrequited love diseases.

and i don't just mean hanahaki disease, although i do love writing hanahaki fanfics, i'm also really fond of star tears disease and forgotten love syndrome (and anything else in that general sphere).

i'm not working on it actively at the moment because i'm focused on a different story right now, but i actually have a draft in my gdocu for a simon snow fanfic about a fatal unrequited love disease i created myself called marigold's heart syndrome. i dunno what it is about love diseases that makes my silly brain light up like a string of fairy lights, but i find them so overwhelmingly tragic.

(if anyone else feels like hanging out, questions are here!)

— CONVIN

Connor doesn’t let himself wonder if his own mother ever looked at him that way. If she ever smiled at him warmly, touched his cheeks like he was precious and irreplaceable, combed the curls back from his forehead while he slept. Things he should remember, but doesn’t. He focuses instead on the slender line of the woman’s brow, the owlish shape of her eyes, the slope of her mouth as she smiles, and drags his charcoal across the page. Trying to capture it. A wet thumb rubs at his chin. Connor cringes away without looking up from his work. “Silas.” “You got that black shit on your face,” Silas says. He leans forward to peer curiously at Connor’s sketchpad. The shadow of his dark curls, identical to Connor’s own in every way but the direction he parts them, falls across the top half of the page. “Dunno why you waste your time with that, Connie. S’not like you make any money from it.” “It’s called a hobby. Some people actually have those. You should...” Connor looks up, “... should... try it.”  His fingers hold weakly to his charcoal. His pulse beats strongly up his throat. All at once, the world becomes soft and muted around him. Distant. Like he’s been plunged underwater. Near the edge of the veranda, drenched by the strawberry sunlight, a man leans over the rails. Weight on his elbows, his forearms extended out and relaxed above the drop down to the lower deck. A cigarette hangs from between his teeth with a thin ribbon of white smoke twirling from the tip. He looks sad, Connor thinks. Lonely, and terribly beautiful. Light-eyed, olive-skinned. Long and lean and frayed at the edges like a sheet of weathered parchment paper. His waistcoat is unbuttoned and hanging open around his hips, while the rest of the first class maunders behind him like an expensive quatrefoil fog. “Connor!” Connor blinks, and the world comes tumbling back into focus. He looks down at his sketchpad, at the single dark, distracted line marring the outline of what should’ve been the little brown-haired girl, then back up at his brother. “What?” Silas cocks an eyebrow at him, knowing and unimpressed. “Don’t even think about it.” “I won’t. I mean, I wasn’t.” Connor sets his charcoal aside, turning to unfurl his pencil case. A soft, battered green cloth one with seven leather loops stitched along the inside, each of them sized to hold a different one of his tools. He pries his old, sticky eraser out of it. “I don’t even know what you’re talking about,” he mutters, then sets to work trying to salvage his sketch.

— SIMON SNOW

September ends. October passes. November begins. A few things happen in between: One, Simon meets Natasha Grimm-Pitch. Or, well—he meets her ghost. And she’s terrifying. Even in death, she is a woman who commands attention and, for all her immovable melancholy, she holds with her an air of intense regency. He could feel her magic in the room with them, and it was white-hot and ancient. Like something from the very core of the Earth. Two, Baz comes back, and Simon promptly forgets why he’d ever given half a shit about the toff prat being gone in the first place. They’ve worked out something of a truce with each other, (it would’ve been nice if Natasha Grimm-Pitch’s visit had only been a courtesy call, but of course things can never be that simple, so now Simon has gone and roped himself into solving her apparent murder,) but suppose that truce must not extend to Baz cutting back on being a right shit about everything because his mood is fouler than ever and, for once, Simon really doesn’t have the energy to deal with their whole bloody song and dance thing they do. Because he’s still sick. Because three, somewhere in the middle of scouring the Catacombs and razing the Wavering Wood and his sworn enemy’s dead mother appearing in his bedroom, Simon started coughing up flower petals. Baz likes to tell Simon he’s an idiot. And sometimes Simon believes him, but most of the time he doesn’t—because he’s not an idiot. (Also because Baz is a fucking twit.) He knows what the petals mean. He’s seen flower spitting disease before.

[lenteur]

i appreciate you a lot, i hope you know that <3

i would like to use the hug card <3 i feel like i need a big biiig group hug, i just want to be squished <333

i hope they do, otherwise i feel like it may drive them apart or away from the company itself(which wouldn't be a bad thing, there are better companies).

your puns are spectacular, i only wish i had that same power ;) it's not that hard to just LOVE him, i mean he is the definition of precious <33 i feel like seungkwan is one of those idols that if you were to ever meet him, he'd be the same as what we see <3 a kind individual <3 though i have watched older fansignings and he seems so sweet <33 i'm having a lot of scoups feelings atm HELP...........

thank u !! we kinda went off criminal minds for the last week or so, my s/o is rewatching smallville and i've been rewatching riverdale <33

it's really, really good <3 i rewatched it this week, also started watching revenge of others, i'm on ep 2 and i am HOOKED <3 it's basically about a girl who transfers to her brother's school in an attempt to find his killer (who pushed him out of a window) >:( i feel like i know who the killer may be but i'm probably wrong :(

you are honestly so sweet <3 you are a ball of sunshine :)) i'm glad you're happy to continue talking with me <3 although if u were not, that would be absolutely okay <3 and you're welcome 🌼

they are both girls!!! <33 they are the cutest beans <3333

hello my dear bestie 💗 i have missed you soooooooooooooooooooooooo much but i'm glad you took some time for yourself and i hope you're feeling better than during the holidays 💕 and i also hope you know i appreciate you as well. very much so!

of course! come here 💓 we'll squeeze you with our love 😘

thank you so much for appreciating my puns 💘 very few people can enjoy them. only the big brained are able to. so therefore, i can share my secret with you :D i went to this amazing pun school ;) i can't mention their name or else they'll receive too many applications. the only thing i can tell you is that it was a lot of PUN (haha get it?)

omg! yes exactly. i knew you'd be able to translate what i'm trying to say about my boo (seungkwan) super well 💝 he's one of those rare idols where you can feel he's practically the same as what he shows in front of cameras. i can't confirm that because i don't know him personally but he kind of seems like he's not that different off camera. ah scoups scoups, that man is very dangerous indeed... i've watched back it up fancams during the caratblr event and i haven't felt this attacked in a long time. he has made a (s)coup(s) d'état to my heart 💞 (i'm proud of that pun)

smallville. a name i haven't heard in a long time. i remember watching it as a teenager, i recognise the faces of the actors but i have no clue as to what's going on in the show. the only thing i know is it's about superman (am i sure? not really) as for riverdale, the only thing i've watched are the yt video edits/the memes. some of the videos are kind of funny. especially when you know nothing about the show hahaha

oh wow congrats on actually keeping your promise of watching kdramas 👏👏👏 so revenge of others is a thriller mixed with a little bit of detective stories? (i don't remember the name of the genre lol) i hope the k*ll*r (just in case tumblr wants to flag this post) is not the person you're suspecting because then it ruins the story :/ at least in my opinion ^^ i mean, it's nice if you guess who it is while collecting clues during the first few episodes but if you already guessed by episode 2 then it's a bummer :( but again maybe the story is not entirely focused on finding the culprit and more about how the main character reacts and what will happen to the culprit? i'm sorry those are just random guesses >3< and i'm sure you've got the right answer. you're smart, very smart!

no need to worry about talking to me 💖 i very much enjoy talking to you and getting to know more about you (and your cats) 💟 you're honestly one of the highlights of my days/weeks when i see you pop up in my notifications so never worry about me not enjoying talking to you. it's the opposite actually!

my little beans are so cute 😻 every time i think about them, i get this huge smile on my face :D it's hard not to when they're this pretty and awesome 💗 a little kiss on both their foreheads because they deserve it for being so amazing 😘😘

YEEEEESSSSSSS

I FINALLY ARRIVED TO YOU ON MY SUPPORTIVE RAMPAGE THAT J DEFINITELY WASNT TRYING TO DO THIS WHOLE TIME WITH TUMBLR BEING A BRAT AND CRASHING!

IT'S YOUR TURN FOR THE SUPPORTIVE MESSAGE

PREPARE THYSELF

FOR MY CHEESINESS TO SHOW ITSELF IN MY SUPPORT!

Okay with all that dramatic intro over that's atleast a little bit of energy gone so hopefully I can be calm enough 😅

First of all thank you so freaking much for indulging in my excitement for trying out fanfic writing for the first time and being a really cool friend 😁

Next I'll swoon about your writing so buckle up and keep your hands and feet inside the safety box at all times during my hyperfixation on your fics 😅

You're so fuckin amazing at writing holy shit, GIVE ME YOUR SKILLS 😭

I can't get enough of your fics just like I can't get enough snuggles from animals! (And that's saying something that I'm comparing the two). Your fics are like drugs to me except not deadly (unless I get diabetes from Soap being so fuckin precious I swear)

Plus I don't do drugs but I'll EAGERLY indulge myself on your fics. You're 100% one of if not my favorite fanfic writer for COD MW2... HELL maybe even my favorite fanfic writer of all time! (Though, full disclosure, I might be a bit biased since you actually talk to me and interact with me on a semi daily basis depending on if I got more COD MW2 filth stuck in my head that I'm too excited excited tell you to wait to make a fic or headcanon out of it)

Pleeeaaaseee don't be weirded out by this all, I get super excited to have friends and even more excited to compliment them 😅 I'm just not used to having friends ig

Anyways, I can't thank you enough for being so nice and cool! And not enough words can be used to explain how much I look up to you (kinda like how a younger sibling looks up to their older sibling like they're the coolest person ever and all that jazz)

Reminder this is all purely platonic (don't mind me worrying too much about how people perceive what I say 😅🥲) so please don't take any of this the wrong way 🙏

I'm super heckin excited to finish the first chapter of the series and the mistletoe headcanons (I'm away from home rn and I'm doing it in a Google docs because the tumblr app hates me or my phone, mayhaps even both)

Keep up the amazing work friend! If you ever need and support or comforting words let me know! Yes I'm always affectionate to my friends and yes I may be weird according to social standards but that comes along with life experiences and being me 😅

Don't let any haters get to you, you're a lovely person and friend and an absolute master at fanfics

Oh, and you dropped this queen, I saved my favourite gif crown for you

I did not expect this OMG Thank you so much 😭😭😭😭😭

Your message means so much to me !!! I've been insecure about my writing skills for a few months now and the COD MWII fadom allowed me to shift back to my natural writing style and have fun again with writing !!

I'm so glad my work is inspiring you to make your own fics, the more stories there are out there, the better honestly !!! And you have so many wonderful ideas that deserve to be put into words !!!

I've been lucky to not have to face haters so far in my writing journey but what can really put someone down is the sheer lack of interaction (reblog and comments). The COD MWII fandom has been better to me than other fandoms so far but this is still something that is frequently talked about on here. That's why I'm glad there are people like you to share your enthusiasm with authors through asks and messages. You're awesome, I love you ❤️

Thank you again, stay awesome, keep writing 🥰🥰

[bhakti]

the beginning or somewhere in the middle

I am starting this tumblr for multiple reasons 1) because I feel a deep hunger and desire to document the spiritual, intellectual, emotional, artistic and ancestral journey the creation of this gallery space is requiring me to undertake 2) because I want to create a space that feels a bit farther away from social media apps like instagram and tik tok that mirror capitalism and the attention economy we experience in our world 3) because I have never created anything like this in my life before and maybe someone somewhere else will find it useful to learn about the process of curating a community gallery space especially maybe someone who doesn't have an MFA or feel like they belong in these types of art spaces or has always wondered who gets to decide what to put on a wall and deem it important 4) because I am learning so much and gathering and everything is living in my notes app or in random journals or a google folder and a figma moodboard and it would be nice to have somewhere that feels like a home for these precious stories and dreams 5) I always have loved tumblr and xanga and little blog things and would like to document and go on this journey in a way that feels exciting and fun for me and not worry about whether I am 'documenting correctly' whatever that means

I am creating something but more importantly I am trying to work really hard to step aside and allow something to create through me. I am hoping somehow I can be open and vulnerable and strong enough to allow something ancient and old to move through me and maybe move through others and bring us together.

While I love beautiful things I sometimes get scared or worried about how visuals and beauty can allow us to gloss over the meat of what really matters. how curration can make us worry so much about how we execute that it leaves the realm of intention and enters the realm of influence and control. I'm not sure if I want to share this blog in live time or have it all go public when the gallery launches on September 23rd, 2022.

Everyday for the past 2 months I've told my friends ' I dont know if this is going to happen is this really going to happen who knows if this will happen' even though I have taken steps such as doing a gallery walk through and writing a budget and getting consultants (read: got to use Harvard's money to pay my friends who do beautiful work to help me and that makes me feel so giddy). I don't know how to drive and for some reason that feels like a huge barrier because I also have a million hang-ups around money that have been activated while creating this gallery. Questions like - can this really be my job? will this sustain me? I obviously am not creating this for the money but it would be really nice to be paid fairly to do this work. it's hard to put a price on the soul excavation and creation.

I just got off of facetime with my mother, we have a contentious relationship but this gallery has somehow allowed us to come together in a way I did not expect. I am learning that the creation of this space has turned into a portal - people love saying the word portal these days and I never really have understood it until now.

this is an undertaking that has allowed me and expected of me so much faith (as it should) to enter places inside my heart and my family's history that I have always been scared to touch or did not even know existed. questions lead to stories about ancestors who were court poets 7 generations back and meditations lead to temples filled with water and women who have been patiently waiting for my arrival. sometimes I feel like I can gaslight myself but what I find is the more I write and create and follow and listen somehow lived reality and history match my intuition or what pours out of me that I hold with question.

I am in love and falling in love with someone I have known for nearly a decade. I think they are a gift but also that maybe god is blessing me with the experience of falling in love during this time for a reason. I never knew falling in love could be such a spiritual and magical experience. it is such a gift to fall in love with someone who is dedicated to spirit and god and ancestry and magic and art. to have someone where I am able to have doubts and questions because I no longer am carrying faith on my own but am encouraged to tend to it.

the capricorn rising in me wants to create checkboxes and lists and to-do lists and I have them. excel sheets on excel sheets. and something bigger tells me to swim swim swim to carve out space and ease and see what arises.

[embracelifeschanges]

Welcome to my little window into the world. Please join me as I share with all of you some pretty epic & amazing experiences along my journey.

And, if you could spread the word, share with your family, friends, & acquaintances because the support you bring will guide me in growth as I build my dream; sharing my love of travel with you, educating and guiding others along the process, and leaving a true footprint of this given legacy for my wonderful children and beautiful grands.

Remember, life is short; live it.

Memories are sweet; build them.

Stories are precious; create them.

Family is a blessing; love them.

Friends who become family are a gift from heaven.

And, life, learn to embrace it simply because it will forever present you with changes.

Simply know that;

Each day, this side of heaven is either a creation, a memory, or a lesson, but no matter how this journey in life turns out, nothing will change the footprints we're blessed to be given.

Stay focused; you've got it!

Push through; you'll reach it!

Dream on; I know you can do it!

Look up to the stars, always; for you are now & truly will always be one of them!

I'm kinda new to a lot of this technology stuff. And, I've been building this for a really long time. Trust me, life is not always easy, though most times what we share with others may look like it because I can't think of one person who simply likes to share their failures; especially on here though truth is we all experience them. Getting up to start again will forever be the hardest part. Choosing to conquer & overcome is truly my story. Getting past the negative self talk is a wonderful celebration. And ~ really accepting to understand that living with a permanent disability, though invisible, is both rewarding and challenging is the inexplainable reward, my gift, to become transparent with and bring forward for all of you. Knowing I am capable of accomplishing anything is a given, yet helping others through my process is so much more rewarding. My stories here will be both informative and educational with a truly vulnerable transparent look into the windows of the untold.

May grace flow through me [all of us] as I build this up & may the hands of our Lord teach me and guide me throughout each challenge placed on this call to the journey before me.

Blessings & much love!

Carey 🌸

Arthur's fiancée again haha No worries at all!! Please, I'm glad to hear from you but I'm just as happy to hear that you've been taking time for yourself!! I hope things are less stressful and that you get some rest in the coming holidays! :D

Ahh Comte... I think I'd have the same bestie vibes with him as you do with Leo. I like it when the characters goof around and be dorky, and that's mostly what stops me from falling for this composed and elegant man haha

I've actually (plot twist!) stopped playing the otome for a while now so I only know his route through whatever I gather on Tumblr, but he's such a secretive guy. The way he carries the weight of centuries of living by himself, as if it's some form of atonement--I can't find a better word, but I find it almost pitiful. I think you'd need that ultimatum! Yours would have to be a story about emotional honesty, of not letting happiness pass you by.

On a slightly related note, I think the reason why I like Ikevamp despite having abandoned the game is that it reminds me of my first otome crush, Roberto from BMP (now that I think of it, he shares the same seiyuu as Arthur!!!). His character says something like every new day is another chance; things are always changing, so each moment to the next is precious. It's the same for vampires who'd have to interact with mortals; there's the added anguish of ending up alone, but I think there's more than enough love and therefore hope to go around.

(ahhh i feel soft... all this talk of our biases also makes me want to make moodboards... maybe someday!)

hey! hope you've been well <3

I totally get what you mean, from the outside Comte is so cool and composed but I'm gonna be real with you... there is a silly side to him that you are able to witness in his route. it's not super noticeable, but it's there! I can share screenshots if you'd like me to.

that's okay! I go through phases with otome games as well. I hadn't played at all during the summer until the day they released ikemen prince, then I started back up. even since then, I take little breaks away from them since they do start to get overwhelming!

I had to look up Roberto from BMP but from what I've seen, he does seem like someone who would blend into the ikemen vampire universe very easily and that's not an easy feat hahahah. I love that he says that though; it resonates with me quite a bit since I'm someone who tries to live in a way where I don't know what'll happen next so I'd like to remind people that I love them or do something I know if I don't that I'd later end up regretting.

thinking about it like that, I guess I'm pretty similar to some of the vampires in the mansion asdfghjk. 'time is very precious and passes by quickly, don't let it stop you from doing things you enjoy.'

I've only made one ikevamp inspired moodboard and it's for an OC I created for a story @princesshondje is writing. it's a WWI AU and my character is Comte's love interest. I do really enjoy making moldboards (and talking about this OC) so I hope to make more for her in the future - and maybe one specifically for Comte!

If you end up making any, I'd love to see <33

alskdfjasd not me completely covering up Comte's real name since I don't want to spoil anything for anyone playing his route
