New official art! Yanqing is here!

This was posted some hours ago on their other social media. Given that the Lunar New Year lasts for two weeks, we might get some more art in a similiar style soon!

#honkai: star rail #hsr #hsr official art #spring festival 2024 #yanqing #I'm going to guess that if there is more art to come #it'll be a reference to the five blessings:#a long life #good health #good wealth #prosperity #and a natural/peaceful death #I think that's what they are?#hm I could see bailu for good health #fu xuan might be prosperity...#jing yuan for a long life then?#lol wouldn't it be messed up if dhil was picked for the death one #dunno who would pass for that everyone else either didn't die or died from unnatural causes (tingyun)#anyhow. yanqing art! yay! yanqing fans stay winning!

win the fight, save your life.

#octaviablakeedit #octavia blake #octaviaedit #the100edit #the 100 #*#i just saw this quote and it of course SCREAMED octavia #and spawned so many thoughts about how everything octavia is #and becomes is unresolved childhood trauma (and further trauma on the ground of course)#comes from a miserable life of not being allowed to exist to suddenly being given the EARTH and devouring it grasping for strength for powe #for connection for life for everything she was denied for 17 years #and because octavia grew up in violence and death #every lesson she learned being harder and more violent by simple nature of it #and how everything octavia's ever been taught is fight and violence and demolition of weakness #slay your demons #i am not afraid (yes you are you've always have been)#and so how could she end up any other way #but finally she does confront this she finds a way to make peace with her darkness she finds peace and happiness #and that saves her life #ultimately she does choose healing in large part so she can be a healing influence in a child's life rather than a damaging one #and i love her sooo much #but beyond being meta of course.. octavia a summary literally and figuratively

stupid fucking titty window distracted me on my first few watches (don,xt talk to me ok) but he has his hand held behind his back here... clutching his chips for dear life.. hiding the way he's shaking.........

#oh kakavasha for a guy who actively risks his life in hopes that something will finally just fucking kill him #and who is so sure of the value of his life (nothing) you sure are very scared to die huh #think it's like. he wants to die because he doesn't want this life and given his track record it seems death is his only way out #but he wants A life #but he doesn't really believe that's possible at this point so he just gets more and more reckless #how far can he go until his lucky streak finally runs out...?#but he wants a life!!!!! why can't his luck ever give him the opportunity to claim his freedom and have A LIFE!!!!!#also he's just like. scared. natural fears #he doesn't want it to hurt. he doesn't want to suffer more right before he breathes his last breath #and he's scared of the unknown aspect of it. what's after this? where will his existence go? will anyone even remember him?#will anyone even care?#he seems to be more at peace with the unknown and the 'pointless' struggle against death after his conversation with acheron #now he just needs to finish surviving his last gamble.. and maybe he can have A life #ok brain turned off my blood sugar just dropped ibcan't finish this coherently #AVENTURINE. AUSGH

🏁 [X / X / X] [X / 🏎️ / X] [X / X / X] 🏁

A stimboard for a church grim / graveyard hound.

Here you go, my friend! I had a whole heck of a lot of fun with this one. I hope it's what you were hoping for!

#🏎️ — stimboard !#stimboard #stim #kinhelp #kinblog #nature #city #flowers #marigolds #windchimes #graveyard #wolf #dog #corvid #I wanted to try and convey a more peaceful kind of death.#Still distinctly eerie. But not an evil or malicious force. I don't know if it's accurate to you. Apologies if it's not!

Sméagol and the Gift

'Now!' said Sam. 'At last I can deal with you!' He leaped forward with drawn blade ready for battle. But Gollum did not spring. He fell flat upon the ground and whimpered.

'Don't kill us,' he wept. 'Don't hurt us with nassty cruel steel! Let us live, yes, live just a little longer. Lost lost! We're lost. And when Precious goes we'll die, yes, die into the dust.'

Devastated by this. Just a little longer, he begs. Even though his existence is a torment. Even though the will that holds him to life is barely his own anymore. He has long outlived his time but it's such a cruelty that now the only freedom for him is in death. I'm glad Sam didn't kill him but the whole scenario is awful.

When a mortal keeps a ring of power he does not gain more life, he continues, denied natural mortality as the fear of death is amplified and twisted into fear of separation, nothing matters anymore but the keeping, the continuing. In that miserable existence there is no peace, and at its end there is no graceful goodbye to life, there is only dust. Sudden, empty, and final.

It would take murder to spare him that. Or falling with the ring into the fire.

Bilbo let it go in time (did he feel anything when it was destroyed?) Frodo is freed of it now, though the toll it extracted for the separation was at very least a finger. It was too late for Gollum for the price to be anything other than it was, and that's brutal.

If you live long enough, death is no longer the enemy. What Sauron did to Gollum ensured that it would always be the enemy, to be feared and avoided for ever, once time and the ring had fashioned it into the only escape left. Evil.

#lotr newsletter #suicide mention in tags #haunted by the au in which gollum goes into the fire with the ring On Purpose #bc he still couldnt separate himself from it but frodo's compassion had somewhat released him from its evil #in a way an honor to frodo's quest and in a way an act of mercy to be able to give up the self-torment #which gives me shrimp feelings bc of the everything but also back to the original point that it is so tragic that death is all that awaits #bc death is natural and that was taken from him. what is the will to live in the absence of natural death?#smth deeply horrible about that #matt bugg screaming we'll be dust. so famous and rent free #lotrn325 #damn it im having more thoughts #wraiths vs gollum: discuss #the nature of the ring kept affects the nature of its possession no? those rings were made FOR thralldom #sauron has power over gollum but not That Much and his own ring is all abt the domination #what would a 2000 year old gollum even be like ._.#the wraiths are probably even more tragic bc at this point they're like...undead. even death isn't freedom #on that topic what happened to the witch-king's spirit fr #I'm pretty sure he isn't ever actually called that in the book but it's epic and gender and way snappier than lord of the nazgul #anyway shoutout to i think yambits for breaking the lore and giving them peace that was sick #where's my gollum rehab fic #i know he's a horrible little man who is constantly trying to murder my boys but i love him so #the au...gollum gaining the willpower to destroy himself because he was given trust and kindness and companionship for once. FUCKED UP.#fucked up horrible i need a minute. being shown compassion and then becoming more self-compassionate. epic #that compassion entailing seeking the freedom of death your soul was denied bc this is fantasy and somehow the exact #arc that usually leads to fighting to live is now flipped. HUH.#yeah jirt alluded to his motivation being For Frodo but i maintain that the willingness to die is HUGE there and extremely relevant #me and my red string keeping me company #ugh tag championships i win i think but at what cost #who wants to spin around miserably in a pool like franknfurter with me as we listen to gollum's song #tam you're already invited i have a floaty for u

not tagging this properly cuz its just concept sketches but I have a bad habit of deleting my art and I like these first concept doodles so well up they go

#shep arts #i didnt really do any color balancing for these first pass designs so ragh not 100% on the colors but i like these 2 #I did do winged designs for everyone this go around but tbh finley and florence might end up wingless #i really like them as just a deer/faun and a cat hybrid respectively #florence would absolutely wear like cosplay wings though…. like specifically a pair that he made himself thats shitty but he’s proud of.#gonna be honest I don’t know shit about actual like colorza lore or whatever besides their names. I just went insane abt the concept lol #i love designing pretty much the same guy several times…#anyway other notes for future design attempts… ‘m considering making frey a dragon…#i do like the concept of skeletal wings or idk i think I usually draw them with clipped wings cause something something headcanon #cant remember why exactly but my designs are inconsistent as hell anyway lol #uhh considering giving phil some angel stuff… cause phin is a demon and I do love things like that… somthjn somethin opposites #ACTUALLY WAIT I HAD A WHOLE THING ABOUT THE OPPOSITE COLOR ONES #angel n demon / good n bad / peace and violence (<- phil and phin) but i think both of them get to be morally complex as a treat so yeah #black cat and yellow bird (<- florence and fletcher) [i think they had sun and moon imagery at one point too??]#and uh tbh i forgot finley and flynns… i think it was something about like nature (finley) and technology (flynn)#frey and pheo… death and life… decay and bloom… ugh their colors aren’t opposites but out of the rainbow they’re both outliers

fic title ask game, 'the end of summer days'

the end of summer days. 1872. steve/tony. ~20k. rated M.

–

SUMMARY:

There's nothing like the sight of the end of a trail, reaching the mountain's summit and pulling your horse up short. Sliding down from the saddle and stepping forward to stare into the cacophony of wilderness, brush curling in the fading sun, fireflies dancing along the moss-heavy trunks.

There's nothing like two large, corn-yellow eyes blinking open, as the wilderness starts staring back.

Tony's a city man, but he's garnered an appreciation for this, ever since Steve's remains went missing and Tony tracked them here.

Ever since Steve came back from the dead as something oh so mightily inhuman.

send me an ask with a fake title and i’ll tell you about the fic i would write to go with it!

#a softer version of this is pre-death and steve takes tony out to this space and teaches him how to close his eyes and just listen #how to be at peace with nature #and they sit close enough together that Tony feels like he's using steve as a blanket against the oncoming chill of the night #and steve counts the scars on tony's fingers and asks about them and says the trees around here have that too -#all these lines from how they survived people trying to cut away at them #and tony says 'so i'm more of the same huh'?#and steve shakes his head a bit and rubs his thumb over Tony's bent index finger and says 'nah i jus' mean ya fit right in'#something something you were ment to be in my life just how you are and you are grimey and dirty and we are doomed #and i wouldn't change a thing #i wouldn't change a goddamn thing #ANYWAYSYSSSS #good talk evren #1872 #fic talk #my fic #ask meme
