#a map is hard enough

Lil Bael and Asmodeus Sketch I don’t feel like finishing - cuz rn it can be simple ish, but lining it will make the complication sky rocket

Anywho- when one of the Leaders of the Royal tortures, as well as the King of the “East” is secretly in love of King of the “West” who’s land is mainly fire, iron trees and spirits passion

*directions in Hell aren’t really like our compass directions. East and West are opposite from each other but also touch/are the other if looking at a globe

so, its pretty rough and by far not complete but this is a rough layout for the map of destiny (my zelda fancomic), i mainly took it after skyward sword but added parts of botw into it (like lanayru street, the twin mountains that were one mountain until ch3, the gerudo highlands, akkala ref; among more general map overlap)

this ones with some super rough chapter markers and some descriptions, the circle doesnt mean the chapter doesnt go to multiple places but the main happening of it is there, its again, pretty rough and lacks the correct order yet too, ill prob add that with time as i write out the scripts for the next chapters, so far i got the order until chapter 6 (chapter 4 is mostly at hylias temple and since there are alot of chapters happening there its not marked seperately)

chapter 1: demon (complete)

chapter 2: a dance of ice and fire (script done)

chapter 3: moving mountains (name not final)

chapter 4: starry night

chapter 5: a wound for a wound (placeholder name)

chapter 6: curiosity (possibly placeholder name, forgot to mark it on the map even tho i know where it goes)

most other chapters i know where and whats happening but i cant remember the exact order, i gotta make a structured chapter chart soon so i dont have to think over everything every single time i need the order

this is probably not very interesting but, even tho it is just a rough layout more for myself than anything else, i thought id share anyway, i know my handwriting when i write fast and tired is hard to read but uh .. feel free to send me an ask about it if theres anything youd like to know (do mention if you are ok with spoilers for the story)

#ganondoodles #zelda #art #tloz #skyward sword #wip #making maps is hard #in general i pulled the map of skysw apart since its not evne really connected on its own map #and put some botw refs into places that arent too far from where they are in botw but also so they make more sense for skysw #also lanayru is not a desert yet tho that process has started due to hylia building what she is supposed to #... in my hc the mining of time stones takes the life out of the land since those stones are made from concentrated spirits- #-that slowly give out their energy and its all a delicate balance #which is destroyed by hylia+ mining them en masse to create the portals #that hc is also based on my hc that luminous stones eventually turn into timeshift stones bc spirits of the dead and all #anyway #yes there are actual cities and towns in skysw #its before the game anyway but like #the handful of people in the sky are not enough for me lol #and gerudo already existed too #maybe bado(groose) is like a half gerudo and thats why hes got red hair

no but really in what world is mothwing “reduced to just leafpool’s wife” when in canon she barely even reacted to her death

#its not true in fanon either when you look her up on several websites its about her relationship with hawkfrost #her NOVELLA is about her relationship with hawkfrost!! (and said novella downplayed her relationship with leafpool!) #tbh i think yall just saw like two mothpool maps and decided that was enough and are mad people keep making mothpool stuff #cause like thats the only way i can rationalize there being ‘’too much’’ mothpool #but yknow. this happens to most f/f ships lmao where people try soooo hard to make them Problematic Actually

TFW you realize there's a typo in the title of the post of your very important content hours after posting it

In my defense, it took me 2 and a half hours to write the copy and post it across 4 different socials (and this is in addition to the time that took me to write the blog post) so by the time I got to Tumblr I was literally dying. You have no idea how grueling every single piece of this work is going to be.

I don't really know why I'm saying this, but I guess if the spirit of 2024 is (also) to help people understand the reality of what we're fighting against, then I should let people know that every single piece of content I'm going to put out is hours and hours of work I wish I was spending on actually making the incredibly important progress that is right in front of me.

#i have it all mapped out and i just wish people trusted it enough without making me play this whole circus #though tbf people who have view into it overwhelmingly do #i dont know how to explain to people i just wish i was shitposting and talking about blorbos #i havent read a fic in 3 fucking years and im so close but like #every single moment i spend being a content creator is a moment im not spending continuing the momentum we keep to trying to build #but i cannot keep surviving on $200/month so its time for the mortifying ordeal of being known #sorry i took making a typo hard clearly in (again) my defense i really really wish things could be different

Me looking at the track record of things being sealed in this show, knowing there is a non-zero chance the seal on the Jade Emepror's power doesn't break, also knowing that Wukong has a habit of hurting himself when he feels he needs to ("Yeah well- you gotta crack a few eggs to make an omlete" "You know, and do you in the omlete story!" "Did you forget the part where I got super hurt?" *strangles 3x01 with my bear hands*):

#it actually makes me sick like physically ill how much praise is heaped onto goyishe american leftists #people who could not point to gaza on a map six months ago. whose knowledge of middle east history comes from outdated textbooks and twitte #for being anti imperial activists and well educated anti imperialists with all the right buzzwords and all the right opinions #meanwhile nothing i say will ever be good enough bc i'm jewish and palestinians are tokenized by people who care more about appearing #like someone who Listens to Palestinians as opposed to 1) doing anything material to help them (like donating money) #and 2) not spreading obvious misinformation. something that does material damage to the cause of liberation #AND further fuels the most insidious of zionist propaganda which relies on the antisemitism of ignorant western goys #this propaganda banks on their antisemitism bc it's that fucking reliable #every white western goy that harasses jews or spreads misinfo about jews or is straight up just racist towards random israeli immigrants #ppl living in the west like running coffee shops that are now having their windows smashed bc that what? supports palestinian liberation? #makes it that much easier for actual zionist propagandists to say 'see. this was never about imperialism. they want an excuse to harm you.' #'you are only safe with us' #i grew up in a cauldron of this kind of propaganda and i was playing on hard mode i got it from the orthodox #it took years of dutiful unlearning. of wrestling with some really difficult realities. of realizing that i'd been not only lied to #but information had been deliberately kept from me to keep me from knowing the true depths of the horror happening in gaza #i did not get the luxury of starting to care about this six months ago during a concerted effort to correct the record #i had to put in the effort to unlearn two decades of propaganda given to me so young i don't remember a time when i didn't know it #and i am by far not the only jew with this experience #i have put in way more effort to care about this than every white western goy with a megaphone posting palestinian flags on IG #but none of that matters bc i am a jew and for the last 5000+ years we don't get to decide how we're discussed or how we're remembered #never mind how many jewish voices (and yes! even israeli voices!) have been supporting liberation efforts in palestine for years. #who've done an amazing job reaching more people who need help seeing through the propaganda they were raised on #i can only be a token who speaks only in protest chants or i can be an evil zionist. the anti imperial work doesn't matter. #bc anti imperial work is hard and none of them actually want to do it they just want the protest photos #anyway this is why i don't discuss this on the piss on the poor website. tbh i don't trust y'all

So uh... anyone else think Leif’s paralogue is some bullshit? The snipers using ballistae are just RIDICULOUSLY strong. I don’t have a single unit that can withstand two attacks in a row (including my freaking GENERAL) so the wrong placement by itself could be deadly, and literally ALL of my healers would die if they’re in range of just one of them! Plus they’re bulky enough that no one is able to kill them from afar with Lyn’s Astra Storm. It doesn’t seem like engaging Ike reduces damage from ballistae either.

As if that weren’t bad enough the computer goes full Cheating Bastard on you and the enemy mages have WAY more range on their staves, so they can silence or freeze or break you from miles away.

IMO the recommended level for this is WAY too low. I have three other maps of the same level to do (two other paralogues & the next story chapter) and I’ll STILL be scared to return to it.

#fire emblem #fe17 #fire emblem engage #i'm playing on hard if that makes a difference #i haven't played leif's game so i have to wonder if the map was that bad originally #i only exaggerated slightly. the snipers COULD tag-team and kill jade #if i had used louis he would have (barely) survived #i'm pretty confident in my assumption no one would be able to OHKO them using lyn's engage though #MAYBE panette but she's the only one. and she'd have to be way too close for them to be worth it #i was really hoping yunaka could do it. but alas #i'm not lying about the healers though #half my options are just immediately out because they're flyers. and my other healers are all much squishier #jean and celine and framme and citrinne would DEFINITELY die. pandreo would have either died or lived with like. 1 HP #either way i think i've had enough Engage for one night. that chapter was NOT fun and i'm burned out

[felikatze]

did you know that gaiden chapter ending cutscenes have alternate dialogue if the gaiden character died mid-chapter? i didnt. this mostly seems to constitute "the relevant character has been replaced with elffin to give exposition in their stead" but it is nonetheless fascinating

#feli speaks #if you somehow meme'd hard enough to kill sophia in 14x. there u go #bcuz you already unlocked the chapter so the character dying is free now #cant just say NOPE YOU UNLOCKED THE MAP BUT NOOO WEAPON FOR U

Currently feeling VERY thankful for sites like eBird and iNaturalist. Need a comprehensive map of pinyon-juniper woodlands in Arizona? There it is. Need an area-specific checklist? Or a bar chart? THERE IT IS. My life is so much easier because of citizen science projects. I'm not even officially researching anything.

#was having a hard time narrowing down exactly where pinyon-juniper woodlands could be found #and the research papers and books werent being specific enough for my needs #then BAM you can just make a fucking map in iNaturalist #at the click of a button #god this so remarkable #i was born at exactly the right time #my posts #dragon speaks

Hey I've been going through your NFHCC AU tag and I absolutely need to know when Eliot decided to tell Nate and Sophie hes a triplet. Like, did they run into them on a job and are they confused? Or did it just randomly come out one day?

Oh man, I can't believe I have an actual answer for this rather than just speculation. Thank you for asking ^u^

This is a bit of a spoiler for The Hitter Job, Extended Edition, but Nate and Sophie aren't actually the first ones to discover Eliot's blood relations. It's Hardison!

After discovering that Eliot Spencer has only existed for just under 2 years, Hardison, in innocent curiosity, digs in and discovers Eliot's real last name is Stone, and he has two brothers. He doesn't immediately go to Nate with the information, because the deeper Hardison goes the more information he gets and the picture this new information keeps getting worse. Only when Hardison feels comfortable and able to tell Nate about Eliot and his secret brothers and last name (amoung other more upsetting info) does he actually do so.

So for a while only Hardison and Nate are aware of Eliot's brothers and father, and they keep it that way. Nate is, of course, hurt that he didn't know this about one of his kids (it's a similar emotion to when he met Archie) but Eliot is almost 18 and Nate knows how easy it would be to loose the trust Eliot has in him, so he says nothing about it. I don't think it's until a job almost a year later, when the Stone triplets are all 18, does the Leverage team accidentally cross paths with both the Librarians and the Cebu trio.

It's a mess lol, but the mess ends with Eliot, Alex, and Jake all reuniting after 3 years of being apart, and the Leverage team and Librarians (as well as Kai and Ernesto) finally meeting their respective triplet's brothers and friends and guardians.

So while Nate finds out about Eliot's brothers before Sophie, and while Sophie isn't exactly happy Nate kept it from her, Sophie Devereaux (and Parker as well) is absolutely the one who understands why Eliot changed his name and never told her or Nate about his brothers. And while both Nate and Sophie aren't glad they find out by accident and not because Eliot chose to tell them, they understand why he didn't, and most likely never would have had the crossover not happened.

#the crossover event is one of the worst days of eliot's life #because it's everything he was forced to leave behind and stay away from #and he's only been able to get updates on his brothers recently when he starts therapy with col. baird #and for jake and alex he totally dropped off the map so they're not happy but are happy and it's a lot of emotions they weren't ready for #it's also the most confusing day ever for parker cassandra and zeke and kai because there's 3 of them?????? #parker and zeke watched US (2019) or have met doppelgangers and aren't totally convinced one of those options isn't whats really going on #when sophie learns jacob is an art prodigy she's so happy #finally another art nerd to talk about art with. and he's so polite and such a gentleman #and thats how jacob stone outshines eliot spencer in terms of ways sophie can talk to teenagers #kai learns that eliot and the team are all criminals and has to fight every urge she has to call the cops on them or arrest them herself #all because ernesto said they were obviously very close to alex's brother and they didn't see them doing anything illegal #cassandra and hardison and zeke immediately click because science and technology nerds #and jake gives eliot the BIGGEST LOOK because zeke was bad enough before but now eliot has introduced him to other criminals #and worse still is that zeke has heard of parker and is 100% for teaming up with the criminals to do crime #i feel like ernesto is in that awkward between teen and adult stage so he just hangs back to watch out for kai and alex #who is trying very hard not to freak out and not punch eliot directly in the face #nate ford's home for criminal children au #leverage teens au #almost paradise #the librarians #ckane triplets #stone triplets #ask #takemyhand-bitch #reply

mayhaps a Witch Hat/Howl's Moving Castle fusion?

Ooooh not only is this a FUN one but it is one I have thought about before!

—

Before Coco got herself cursed, she’d always thought she’d live and die a tailor in that little town, where nothing exciting actually happened. The most interesting thing to ever happen to Market Chipping was when the train station got built ten years ago, and when people come out from Kingbury and Kahln. Coco is willing to believe that interesting things happen, of course, but interesting things don’t happen to her— they happen to interesting people. Like witches!!

This is what she tells herself, to keep herself from getting too bored.

Actually, the most interesting thing to happen in Market Chipping happened three months ago, when the girl down the street saw the Wizard Agate’s castle in the fog creeping about the hills— but that’s terrifying, not not interesting at all.

They say the Wizard Agate eats the heart of any pretty girl she finds out on her own, that she peels the magic from other witches, that she does all manner of madness in her quest for power.

But, well, Coco isn’t a pretty girl anymore, now that she’s nineteen-going-on-ninety, and she was never a witch to start out with. And she can’t bother her poor mother with all this, not after that business with placing her sisters in nice apprenticeships. Maybe the Wizard will even feel like breaking her curse! Maybe the Wizard will teach her some magic! Not wizardry, since you have to be born with the talent to be a wizard, but maybe a bit of witchcraft!

Probably she won’t, but being an old lady is good for hope! What’s the worst that will happen, anyways?

—

“Who the hell are you?” The woman— Wizard Agate, since it couldn’t be anyone else but her— said. She was, shockingly, wearing trousers. Coco couldn’t imagine ever being so scandalous, but she figured one must get used to it after some time. 

Oh no. 

“I’m your new cleaning lady!” Coco said. 

Wizard Agate took a long drink of whatever was in her mug. “Why,” she said, but not like a question. 

“Because you need one,” Coco said, and since Wizard Agate hadn’t eaten her heart yet, she dared a little further. “Really badly.”

Wizard Agate pinched the bridge of her nose and sighed, dramatically and showily. “Fine, whatever.”

Coco would have danced in joy if her bones didn’t protest to the thought. “I promise you won’t regret it!” She said. 

“I already do,” the Wizard said, and reached behind Coco to shut the door. She was taller than Coco, as she was, and probably would’ve been taller than Coco as she had been, too. Her outfit made her look even taller, long straight pants with pin folds that went all the way up to a long blue and silver vest over a fine shirt with flounces on the sleeves. 

#Look I just think. Agott and Coco map better onto Howl and Sophie than Qifrey and Oru #Coco’s LEARNING magic!! she’s the pov character AND she’s being introduced to the world #also there aren’t enough adults in wha to really map into the hmc characters. Even though I think witch of the waste!iguin is pretty funny #anyways Agott is a she/he lesbian here and if I ever wrote the rest of this I would lean hard into the combined howl and Agott Gender vibes #witch hat atelier #witch hat #my fic #whats the ship tag here #agoco #arcko #ehhhhhh #anyways.
