#The Secret of the Attic

What I Read in November 2022

never could find most of these as a child, so as an adult with money, I shall now read these books. ^_^’ also they are very cute. 

re-read, still fun (though not sure why Percy picked on Persephone so much?)

so I begin the trauma again... XD

this was so good, i loved “A Man Called Ove” and this book lived up to that. 

ah Ciel and the need for (slightly petty) revenge. Still not sure about someone already ranked an Earl getting to attend the school but...

I’d been reading this online and nearly given up on it, as the translators kept changing as did the quality of translation, then spotted this at walmart and happily snatched it up. ^_^ Looking forward to volume 2

the start of the Tiny Train arc XD

very fun, also kept thinking in all caps while reading this, didn’t know I could... XD 

not sure I liked the conclusion to the Fullbring arc? Though Byakuya subtly stanning Ichigo was great. 

this is one I had pre-ordered the instant i knew it was coming out. I adore it!

More Amanita Szarr doodles because I think she should have been a recruitable NPC that hangs out around camp and drives everyone bonkers. Imagine the possibilities of the group having to babysit a surly teen vampire who's been 13 for like 50 years and also is Cazador's canonical in-game niece who wants to murder the shit out of her uncle.

Don't know anyone here? Pick one and go listen!

Am I missing your favourite? Are they from a horror? Let me know!

Where is Sister Carpenter? She is too powerful and would skew the results. But rest assured, she will be appearing in an upcoming poll.

Part 1: A Dream of the Trees

He is known by many names- Prince of Stories, Shaper, Lord Morpheus, Dream of the Endless - but many a child 'round the world hearing stories at bedtime know him simply as The Sandman.

It's my pleasure to share this project with you after sitting on it for so long! The Sandman (Neil Gaiman) is a profoundly important & personal piece of literature to me, & Mr. Dream such an important figure, I absolutely needed to bring him into the waking world. I worked, reworked & re-reworked on my interpretation of him until finally saying "done!" in December of 2022.

I learned so much about what I could accomplish sculpting with fabric, I'm very proud of him & love him terribly. I really hope you will enjoy him too!

(more photos to come!)

#the sandman #dream of the endless #dolls #beamies buddies #it feels weird to share him after keeping him secret so long #like ive been hiding a secret lovechild in my attic and now im confessing him to you #im nervous! but also very happy #i have so much to say and share about the making of this doll that perhaps i can make a 'behind the scenes/making of' post #but that is for another day! i hope you like him and i want you to know i tuck him in and give him a smoochie every day #cloth dolls #crafts #handmade dolls #also fyi he is approx 3 feet tall :)

I am still convinced that Camilla and Charles were in part inspired by Chris and Cathy in Flowers in the Attic. Blonde siblings in an incestuous relationship, living with a grandmother, in Virginia a formerly aristocratic family.... they're so similar

actually you know what, while I still stand firmly behind "the real villain of rex's tcw-era gothic horror story is rex with a control chip in his head" I think there's another option I'm ignoring here...

in classic gothic horror, of course, a hero has two main ways to resolve the problem of the monster:

✅defeat the monster

✅become the monster

and in canon, rex - being the overachiever that he is - gets to do both!

but gothic romance introduces a third, exciting option:

✅marry the monster

and I think rexwalker is definitely at its sexiest when it involves an anakin who is anywhere on the path from rots-era anguished doubt, to full-on commitment as darth vader, turning all his immense capacity for love and his ride-or-die, damn-the-consequences loyalty towards one ordinary (brave, determined, genuinely good) clone

#rexwalker #star wars #anakin skywalker #rex #rexwalker jane eyre au WHEN #obviously rex is jane (broke traumatised veteran looking for work in a galaxy shattered by the aftermath of the clone wars) #and anakin is mr rochester (raising two kids alone with droids in the big house or possibly the fancy spaceship he inherited mysteriously) #(he and the house/ship are full of secrets) #(probably there's a red lightsaber stashed away somewhere which rex WILL recognise with horror) #and there is also a person hidden upstairs in the attic... who rex will also recognise with horror... #no it's not padme it's PALPATINE of course #probably gone mad in the aftermath of an attempt to take over the galaxy (that killed padme too I guess) #anakin is still protecting him from galactic justice and caring for him because he can't stop loving him #but he hates him too #and can't stop blaming him for padme's death #padme herself is i suppose the dead wife haunting the narrative with her inescapable presence... #we can have a rebecca crossover too. as a little treat. #lol this is such an insane AU but I'm obsessed with it now #my meta

It’s a little weird for me to see all these interpretations of a young Ganondorf as some kind of perpetually -shirtless child supermodel when I personally see him as a cross between Amanda Rule-of-Rose (including the orphanhood and childhood adversity [she DID grow up in a British orphanage run by a neglectful scumbag in the 1910s-20s], its attendant emotional problems and attachment issues, precocious life skills, secret hideout, hilariously overwrought diary entries, and extremely off-putting ways of apologizing and trying to make friends) and an ichimatsu doll.

I know a lot of people think he’s handsome, and want to believe he was always handsome, but I feel like it’d be more fitting if his childhood self was this hilariously awkward, oversensitive, and vulnerable thing that he’s been desperately trying to get away from ever since, and yet in some ways hasn’t changed from at all. For example, he’d be just as likely to do the “leave a letter in their room and watch them through a crack in the door to make sure they read it” thing to someone he’s trying to sincerely apologize to as an adult as he would as a child.

#loz thoughts #ganondorf #he would have a secret attic room where he recites poetry and builds obsessive shrines to every boy he has a crush on like helga pataki #as well as his tendency to hoard ‘treasures’ he finds #in that secret hidden room of his #as a kid it’d be stuff like cool glass bottles pinned butterflies and bleached animal bones #as an adult it’d be weird and possibly dangerous occult artifacts and random things he’d taken during his relationships with people #who he considered ‘special’ enough to get attached to (although he’d rarely openly admit it) #scratched up or faded old photographs and napkins stolen from that one inn where they had dinner #odd little pieces of their lives that are often the only thing anyone remembers them by after they’d died or left him #and they always leave in the end
