My page for @sheikahzine; about Impaz's duty to her village, empty of people and full of memories.

#legend of zelda #loz #twilight princess #loz tp #i'm still reeling that someone sent me an ask about this one.. that they took the time to find my tumblr and tell me they liked it #it really meant a lot; thank you to anyone that stops to leave comments like that. they make me happy #but yeah! here's the usual symbolism ramble: #i thought it'd be cool to have the 'spirits' flowing one way and the cats walking through them the other way #to kinda show the difference in life inhabiting the village in the past and present #link's face is covered because impaz was just waiting for 'the hero' so his clothes are what matters; not his face #and it (hopefully) gives a surreal and intangible sense to 'the hero' she could only hope would actually show up #you can feel free to interpret the glowy blue sheikah as ghosts or just as memories of the past! i couldn't decide either way #the one on the bottom left is oot impa since she's implied to be the village founder. so i guess she would be a ghost actually? #fan art #my art #project stuff #and ahhh the book-- everyone's stuff is so beautiful!! #especially the writing. some of the fics made me really tear up and some were so fun and clever. i really love them #a lot of them captured the sheer burden of the role of the sheikah; all of the time and grief and doubt #i know i always say this stuff about every project but. the people i get to work with in these are truly so skilled every time

A page from my post-Botw Zelink comic. Each chapter covers key moments of my headcanon. I don't think my comic is super revolutionary in terms of story because there is so much fan content out there and im super classic and vanilla... but i dont care. I'm having fun creating my own take on what happened. This project is a time consuming blackhole and I draw it all out of order because I have no discipline whatsoever 😭 😂 It was originally just random black and white pages here and there with no cohesions, like my stand alone illustrations... but the illustrations became pages. The project is basically me fan-servicing my own self. 😂😂

Then it exploded, i've been adding color, cleaning up my panels, pimping the backgrounds.

I still unsure on which platform i will make it available to read. The friends who got my out of my shipping closet are screaming to me to print a fanzine, but i'm lazy hahaha. Might do a patreon eventually, idk.

Oh yeah, this is a panel from the chapter where Zelda and Link go back to Korok forest to put the Master Sword back in it's pedestal... I'm old, i played the old games. One of my BotW nitpics was that it didnt include the classic moment where the sword rests once again, like in ALttP and OoT. I like traditions okay!!!! Cheers!!!

Personally, I think Zelda and Link still end up together in Age of Calamity. They literally flirt constantly in that game....

Just because Mipha is alive doesn't mean it would happen 🤷‍♀️

Not to mention that the armor description for the Zora armor is basically making a joke of it in English ("It's probably fine to be wearing this. Probably.") and "Is it really okay to wear this??" in Japanese. Because that's toootally how someone who accepts a proposal acts. Uh huh.

kabru would like cheap erotica novels. he'd like to pretend (to himself at least) that its about his psych hobby since there's a lot you can glean about a cultural zeitgeist and of course what kind of things people are finding sexy lately from the porn being made and getting popular, and im sure talking in excited whispers with older women about the bodice rippers they like is a plus, but ultimately i think he'd just genuinely find them hot. hes absolutely the type to do erotic roleplays and get way too in-character

#kabru #for my labru nation: imagine kabru suggesting he be dracula seducing the maiden (laios) to drink her blood #only for them to get into a 30 minute argument about if vampires are monsters #laios: theres no evidence they exist and the legends say its basically just a dead guy that barely counts #kabru: zombies are monsters ergo vampires are monsters you should be into this! #laios: zombies also barely count. and i didnt say im not into it just that vampires arent real monsters #kabru: look are you going to play along or not because if you arent i have to put the wooden stake back in the garden

The parallel between Sokka and Tenzin as their fathers' sons.

Sokka, left at 13 as his father and all the other men head off to war. Hakoda tells him "being a man is knowing where he's needed the most" and he needs to protect his sister, his home.

Tenzin is the second airbender. He is also half water tribe, he's a man. When Aang dies, he will be the last airbender. He understands what he needs to do.

Untold amount of pressure and responsibility have been thrust upon them by their fathers. Though, I believe it is not all intentional, but the unfortunate circumstance of being the fathers of sons who take responsibility incredibly seriously.

In Sokka's case, "protect your sister" is a vague instruction. It was meant to give him purpose, to help him feel okay about being left behind, He is too young for war, his father does not want to bring his child to slaughter. But Sokka will die with purpose. He will train the children of his tribe so they will be protected, he will face a fire nation ship until his last breath. He cannot go to war, but Hakoda did not see that war was all around them. In trying to give Sokka purpose, Hakoda put their world on his shoulders.

We do not get to see Aang be a father (in the TV shows), but we know he had hopes for the future. All his children were air nomads, and the air acolytes brought his culture back, but Tenzin could bend. This part of their culture is one ONLY they share. I do not think Aang would hide this, he is joyous that he gets to share his culture. When he feels respected, he always is, he taught the air acolytes after all. Off handedly, he could say, "I'm hopeful for a future where there are lots more air benders," and that, which feels mostly innocuous to him, is the nail in the coffin of Tenzin's fate. He is Avatar Aang's son, and the future of the air benders. It would not matter that Aang meant a future in generations. Tenzin sees the responsibility and it's his. He is his father's only air bending child, he knows what he needs to do.

Being a parent is not understanding the way the things you say harm your children. Even those things that feel innocuous in the moment can be life altering. Especially the more the child respects the parent. Purpose and Hope for those with a broader perspective, can be death sentences to a life that could have been when expressed to those who idolize the former.

yeah sorry, your fandom got a hold of your canonically bisexual character and are now acting as if they are only straight or gay. So sorry :(

it is very fun to me that the legend of vox machina is finally daring to ask the question what if you COULD edit a dnd campaign. what if you COULD look at it as a whole story, beginning to end, and decide what needs to be kept and what can be cut, what was inconsequential to the overall plot but integral to a particular character arc, what works better done in a different order or merged together, what characters can be introduced earlier or in a different place or together. it's really really fun to think of the campaign itself as sort of a "rough draft" and watch how it shifts

#ofc with tlovm there's also the change in medium so like. actual play as a medium HAS space for things animation necessarily doesn't #and they're trying to accomplish different things. but still #two of the campaigns i dm are nearing their ending right now so i've been thinking about this a lot #how it's crazy that you only ever get one shot at it with ttrpgs you HAVE to nail it first try because you don't get to edit #when there are ALWAYS things in stories i'd do differently in hindsight #tlovm #the legend of vox machina

Here is the truth! Kabru, being trained from a young age in swordmanship by a navigated warrior, knows that fencing is useless against monsters. Laios and the gang seldom used weapons to defeat their preys.

Think about it: swords have been the first weapon not born as a tool or a hunting implement, with the specific purpose of killing other human beings. There is a well tought out rationale behind the shape and form of a sword and they informed how weapon systems developed in time and space to take advantage of it, and vice versa. The all metal, tang thru the handle contruction of a conventional sword gives a tactile response everytime any part of the blade touches anything, a level of resolution not needed if you are up against a beast, but fundamental against a fellow smart human being armed with a weapon you need to track. That feeling of the iron is useless if you can't bind, and you are not binding horns nor fangs let me tell you.

Kui-sensei is so real for aknowledging this fact that is driving me crazy for years. Swords are a shit choice against beasts and monsters and I kind of despise fantasy tropes for spreading the idea.

#kabru dungeon meshi #kabru #swords #fencing #this rant is offered to you by a two hours long tie guan yin tea session #and years of thinking about swords #yet the genre tropes are ther because swords were so rare that the common man didn't know what they really were for #so myths and legends for centuries have painted them as a godly weapon only fit for noble heroes and kings #the folklore wins over facts

a very self indulgent twipri au i made... vampire!zelda x vampire hunter!link..

in which a rancher from ordon is suddenly afflicted with lycanthropy, and hunts down the cursed hylian queen who is absolutely, DEFINITELY responsible for it...

"Link, go assassinate the Hylian queen so we can go back to living normally." instructions unclear i have fallen in love with her

midna is somewhere probably maybe once i figure out what to do with her .

#tloz #zelda #loz #link loz #zelda loz #my nyart #so . #my first au huh #poor zelda isnt evil btw . much like in twipri shes kind of Stuck in a very very cursed kingdom with not much she can do #she was probably very confused when meeting the ~hero of legend~ and he says hes here to kill her #she was like WE ARE SUPPOSED 2 BE BESTIES!! AND ALSO SOULMATES. why are u calling me ebil :( #especially because she feels horrifically guilty about not only the state of her kingdom #but also like. shes a vampire. She Eats People #so for link to call her a monster... she kind of agrees i guess #but no she had nothing to do with links curse lol. #he just assumed she did... and she politely told him otherwise #he does not believe her #and of course #when he DOES fall in love with her #he assumes hes being enthralled or something and is like YOU CANT FOOL ME !!!!

THAT WAS DUNE???? THAT WAS JUST A QUIRKED UP WHITE BOY DOING SO MANY DRUGS HE BECOMES JESUS

#I finished Dune can you tell #So it's a pretty good analysis of ecology and colonization and white savior complexes #Except I like that Paul literally can't run from his destiny as a white savior. No matter what he tries to do to stop the Holy War #the loyalty of his followers ALONE is what will cause it! #He can do the most ordinary things a 18 year old boy is capable of with some added psychics and it will be sanctified #because of the Bene Gesserit manipulating the indigenous population into seeing Godhood in everything their perceived messiah does! #When he says “I didn't even draw my knife but it will be said of this day that I slew twenty Sardaukar by my own hand” #“I cannot do the simplest thing without its becoming a legend. They will mark how I parted from Chani #how I greet Stilgar-- every move I make this day. Live or die it is a legend. I must not die. #Then it will only be legend and nothing to stop the jihad.“ #And “I have seen a friend become a worshipper” #goddddd hes trying so hard to escape his fate but his cult are so loyal to him his fate will come no matter what he does #dune

I swear, I'm going to need to get "Obi-Wan put himself on probation in order to prove his commitment to the Jedi and take responsibility for the impact of his own choices" on my body somewhere at this point. Please, please, get this pervasive idea that the probation was FORCED upon Obi-Wan the fuck out of fandom, it ruins the ENTIRE POINT of the whole arc of the first seven books of that series. The choice to put himself on probation is literally the conclusion of Obi-Wan's growth and development. He takes responsibility for his own actions and the unintended harm they've caused, he chooses to accept the uncertainty of his own fate in a way he couldn't do before and this allows him to let go of his fear of that uncertainty that was holding him back in many ways and causing a lot of his issues with anger, and it proves his loyalty to the Jedi Order above all else as something he is choosing because he truly believes it is the right path for him and not just because it's all that he knows. The choice to put himself on probation is SO SO IMPORTANT to Obi-Wan's character arc in this series and EVERYONE MISSES IT TO MAKE HIM SOME UWU SAD BOY INSTEAD.

#star wars #obi-wan kenobi #jedi apprentice #stop turning the jedi council into obi-wan's personal villains just to make him sad #you've missed the whole fucking point of that plot beat if you do #obi-wan does make some of his own mistakes #just because he makes them for sympathetic reasons does not mean they weren't still mistakes #he's allowed to recognize he made mistakes and work to make amends for them #it's literally the only way he can fucking grow as a character #stop taking that away from him #it's legends anyway so if you don't like what happens to him in these stories you can just de-canonize them for yourself #just pretend it didn't happen #canon says they didn't happen anyway #but if you like JA and are using it as an argument pls pls pls GET IT RIGHT
