I have this unfinished art with griddlehark after the pool scene

I like the angle but I also hate drawing backgrounds

#calm before the storm #i wanna dissect every interaction they had after the pool scene and before shit went down #they've been so close to each other for the first time and it didn't even lasted a day #the locked tomb #griddlehark #gideon the ninth

[unreachedgalaxy]

can't stop thinking about how tamsyn muir regularly includes foreshadowing in the most bizarre and mundane places (like harrow threatening to make bone meal explode out of gideon, and then she does do that to a Different Gideon).

anyway on a totally unrelated note, remember how they're fighting in GTN and harrow says "when I release you from my service, Nav, you will know about it"? and remember what harrow knows now about the meaning of lyctorhood and cavalierhood, and the fact that she likely no longer wants gideon to just be her cavalier? and remember that there's almost no way they won't have at least one blowup fight in Alecto the Ninth?

yeah. thinking about it.

#the pool scene is so powerful I think we all forget how fucking awful their communication skills are #like #Gideon legitimately believes harrow didn't want her sacrifice and that's why she lobotomized herself #it's not like they actually communicate any better now than they did before Gideon killed herself LMFAO #griddlehark #gideon the ninth #harrow the ninth #gtn #the locked tomb #gideon nav #harrowhark nonagesimus #alecto the ninth

Okay but let's talk about Dan and Ghost King Danny. Yeah, sure the angst is well and good but what about the sheer hijinks that could ensue?

Thus, I propose the following: Community Service AU. It's exactly as it says on the tin. King Danny who puts Dan through community service in the zone, doing stuff to help his reign, and improve the realm as a whole. Soup time is well and good, and well, Walker is a possibility but c'mon. It's Walker. Community Service sounds much more reasonable. Danny is the Ghost King, it's not like Dan can get into too much trouble.

He gets banished to the dreaded paperwork realm to help sort through the backlog because does anyone think Pariah Dark was any good at clerical work before he went off the rails? Nah, I don't think so! There's certain tedious things that Danny just Doesn't Have The Time for but look! Here's Dan, who's just enough of Danny to be able to do some tedious kingly duties but also not being Danny enough to actually contest for the throne. Dan gets to help nurture and while it's forced at first, he gets to see a positive impact that he has on those around him (Eventually, with good enough behavior he gets to finally see his sister again.)

Smash cut to a JLA meeting where Constantine is there for Reasons and then the whole of the JL members present gets the shock of their lives when a terrifying mass of vicious teeth, a body that doesn't move right, too many eyes, and freezing cold rips a hole in reality.

"J̴o̸h̵n̶ ̵C̴o̵n̴s̴t̵a̵n̴t̸i̴n̷e̴,̵ ̴t̷h̴e̸ ̵t̸i̶m̷e̶ ̴t̸o̶ ̵p̴a̴y̵ ̶y̴o̵u̴r̴ ̷d̷u̷e̴s̶ ̷h̵a̷s̴ ̸c̷o̷m̶e̷."

Dan was helping Ghost Writer find some books that were never returned years before. Honestly, Danny would've just written them off as Lost but Dan had been really good lately and Danny thought he earned a little harmless fun. Besides, those occultists really should've known better than try to steal from the Dead.

#dp x dc #danny phantom #john constantine #dc #rook posts stuff #community service au #Dan: I could've killed them all. I did before you know. #Danny: Yeah yeah you're just a being of unending terrors WE KNOW #Dan gets put into time out via cleaning up those gross pools of ectoplasmic waste that leak through. He's thoroughly disgusted that some #humans have been bathing in the stuff. gross

blade/yingxing x reader scenario:

kurim: blade’s past name was yingxing, supposedly

(blade sees your smile, beautiful and loving and inviting as he remembers you to be — when he closes his eyes and takes a deep breath and pretends he can have this, at the very least. you were so lovely, so very lovely, and the man he once was - yingxing - had truly loved you in a way he could not love anyone else)

you and yingxing were lovers, decades ago when he was still part of Xianzhou and you a person he fell in love with, yingxing liked building you trinkets and taking you to eat during the weekends and seeing your smile and he would throw hands with jing yuan because he always teased him and called him a love sick puppy

you and yingxing were some of the short-lived species in Xianzhou, you were content in XXXX area and yingxing was a genius amongst genius in crafting, building and creating tools, machinery, weapons and works of arts.

you and yingxing had your whole life planned out, it was not hard to when there was so much to do and so little time to do it, but you two are determined to make your lives count despite the looming threat of the abundance hanging over their head and the wars Xianzhou has to partake in and how nothing is determined in life, but you two love each other, but then this happens, but then that happens, but but butbutbutbut—

yingxing becomes mara-struck.

yingxing kills you in his first mara-struck rampage/haze.

yingxing will forever remember it - your blood is very warm and wet, even as he drops to his knees and tries tries tries but there’s nothing he can do because you’re already dead — he might have screamed, howled until his throat burst and his lungs collapsed and mended themselves, he might’ve had fought against jingliu too as well, he doesn’t quite know. he cannot remember anything apart from a red haze, doesn’t remember if you had screamed or tried to fight back or tried running away, but one look at you shows just how horrible a death you had experienced in your last moments. blade will have forever etched the image of your mangled body in his memory, because of course yingxing will have.

this is the first step towards the death of yingxing’s ego, and what will eventually create blade, an abomination who seeks for death and yet is denied time and time again, who is only left with vengeance and violence as a driving force for moving and breathing and fighting because he has nothing else

yingxing was a man who committed many great mistakes and paid for it with everything in his life, including the one he loved

blade is the remains of that man’s ego, the hatred and grief and anger and obsession and destruction and love, a monster given eternal life and reduced to a mad dog of destiny’s slave, all for the sake of reaching paradise

blade lives for the sake of dying — he lives for death, for vengeance, for the possibility of paradise

(blade sees your smile, beautiful and loving and inviting as he remembers you to be — you smile and smile and smile, perhaps a little sad but as lovely as he remembers and he wants to reach out for you with his bloodied hands, but you are unreachable, a ghost of his past, the victim of his sins, and he can do nothing but watch you stand on the other side of the river of stars. blade thinks that you’re as lovely as yingxing remembers you to be, waving at him, smiling at him, always smiling at him)

elio promises an ending to his wretched existence.

blade will stop at absolutely nothing to reach his desired paradise.

(you smile at him, and blade thinks that you still look so very lovely, decades after your death)

i’m sorry, i’m sorry, forgive me, forgive me, it was all my fault, if only i hadn’t—

(you only smile, and then blade opens his eyes to find his mangled body healing and mending and stitching together again)

.

#kurim writes hsr #blade x reader #blade sees death as a paradise he cannot attain sooooo #here’s the equation: you = dead = paradise #EXTREMELY SELF-INDULGENT I GUESS #i wanted something angst #hsr blade #hsr #blade x you #honkai star rail #in this house we swim in the pool of blade’s suffering #actually that’s kind of weird because I swear i wasn’t this obsessed over him before #I actually kind of liked Jing Yuan more :P #hsr scenarios #hsr imagines

one underrated part of Gideon the Ninth is right before everything goes to shit Harrow says "Follow me", and Gideon is internally thinking like: im SO done with Harrow. she sucks so bad. i have prepared the highest quality of verbal insults and i am going to publicly roast her so utterly that she will have to be taken away to be mercy-killed. but then Harrow whips out the "please 🥺" and Gideon is just like. fine. nevermind. and she never brings it up again. incredible moment.

Question: how long does medusa neil takes to grow?

Like, taking the hands as Andrew's, is it more of a "whiplash because I was petting this baby a month ago and it's now Big" situation or "wait what you're telling this hot mer is that tiny cute thingy I'd found around as a teen?" one

Ok ok so I had just put out “Andrew finding baby jelly neil would be really cute” as like a fun little side thought but now I REALLY LIKE IT AND I WANT TO PUT IT IN THE TIMELINE

so to answer this question: physically? A Sea Nettle mer like Neil I’m going to say takes about 17-19 years to reach physical maturity/full size (which in jellies is pretty far removed from mental and emotional maturity, jelly brains take a good while to develop because they start with so little)

So this. This is what I’m deciding thank you so much @snazzy-jas-z-is-a-fan-of (which counts as your second option, dear galacticvampire)

And it looks like this:

@exy-is-sexy medusa admirer 🥰

So Andrew always comes back to the beach (fisherman’s son, they’re there a lot) and always gets distracted going to a specific tide pool housing this little thing he found. Aaron thinks it’s really cool too, their dad is too busy with work down the beach and is happy his kids are entertaining themselves while he gets ready for the day. Of course, yes, he tells them. Very good, finding such a mer in these waters. (He thinks it’s kids being kids. No one’s seen a jelly mer, they’re kind of believed to be extinct if not simply legends. But a little imagination is healthy.)

Then one day, Andrew checks the tide pool and finds it empty of the tiny jelly. It’s nowhere in sight, he looks all over the nearby waters and in any grass or rocks it could have gotten caught in. Nothing at all.

Maybe by the time he’s taken over his family’s fishing business, Andrew has convinced himself it really was in his imagination. His memory serves him well but if he’d convinced himself it was real back then, that would be what he remembered now.

Until he finds a monster washed up on his beach.

(A shot of the process under the cut)

IT DOESNT COME ACROSS IN THE PANEL. BUT I CANNOT PROPERLY EXPRESS TO YOU HOW TINY THAT SECOND NEIL IS. literally I think that is the single smallest thing I’ve ever drawn. Look at this

That’s me sharpening my 0.3 mechanical pencil to get it small enough to draw the eyes. I just need everyone to know this because I think it’s so stupid and funny. And we all love tiny baby jelly Neil and it doesn’t get ANY tinier than this folks

#BABIES #not pictured: directly before and after #before when Andrew got seaweed on his foot #saw a bug in it #and flung it across the beach in his surprise #then went looking for it bc wait that didn’t seem like a bug #found it in a tide pool #huh. jelly mer #and after when Aaron says ‘can I hold it’ #and Andrew tries to drop it into Aaron’s hand #but it’s barely hanging on to his finger by its teeth. hanging straight down #love them #fan art #my art #aftg #all for the game #neil josten #andrew minyard #mer au #jellyNeil au #jellyfish #asks #tags #jellyneil

cleo sertori had a fear of swimming since she was a child and nobody considered for a second that getting stranded on a boat in the middle of the sea then falling into a cave system where she had to swim through subterranean water tunnels to the ocean where she had to tread water until a s&r team found them would be traumatic and exacerbate her fear into full aquaphobia

secretly becoming a mermaid helped her get over her fear but to everybody else her being cagey about the pool party and washing the dishes makes 100% sense when they stop for a moment and consider she’s probably terrified

#h2o just add water #cleo sertori #lewis like ‘i don’t know what’s going on with her lately’ bestie you know what’s going on #they were missing for hours #it’s fucking rude that her parents weren’t more supportive like ik it was the 2000s and nobody believed in therapy but it wouldn’t be that #hard to switch cleo from dishwashing to hoovering and bin duty or fucking. yard work. or if it’s about helping out at dinnertime they could #teach her how to cook she could do meal prep #honestly not enough people thought cleo was pretty courageous like she was out there facing her fear everyday #she went through those tunnels she painted her room like the ocean and kept fish she helped emma with her training before the incident on #mako she was trying to overcome her fear every day #also. emma’s parents thinking she had depression and trying to help was A+ parenting but it was also possible that emma was also traumatise #like?? it’s one thing to swim in a pool and be fast it’s another to push against currents while pulling your friend who can’t swim #and the tunnels were long too they almost ran out of air #i think after that her reluctance to swim should make a bit of sense lmao

Hello!! I came across a couple of your animals with pride flags series (idk what you're actually calling it lol) and I wanted to request an intersex blue-ringed octopus (I'm not intersex myself tho lol, just thought it might look neat)

Oooh, this was a fun one! Thank you for the request! 🐙

#ask #art request #art #my art #intersex #blue-ringed octopus #octopus #queer art #animal art #digital art #lgbtqia+ #lgbtq+ #critter series #someone requesting an animal that matches the colour/look of the pride flag with it? *wipes tear* brilliant. you understood the assignment #like i love doing people's favourite animals with their flag but there's just something so fun about animals that match the colour scheme #or at the very least are very close to matching it. it makes the designs so appealing because it looks more natural #and it's always nice doing flags i haven't done before #the blue-ringed octopus was an excellent choice for the intersex flag. for obvious reasons. i also think it looks very neat :) #(the back legs are doing a very very good job of being hidden behind the head and have nothing to do with me forgetting about them) #i saw one when i was a kid. i was in a rock pool and as I got out it swam across. it was a very 'woah. i could have died just now' moment #but then again close encounters with deadly animals are basically a rite of passage for kids in australia #id in alt

was scouring a search of ice and fire for theon jeyne & sam gilly parallels and made a devastating discovery…

and…

sam and theon, to me, are used by grrm to directly contrast archetypes of bravery as well as masculinity. sam and theon have similar upbringings in that they never felt home in their homes, nor did they have great relationships with their fathers (this develops later for theon but is relevant all the same), who held their inability to perform masculinity to their ideals against them.

now, onto gilly and jeyne.

sam and theon have a really interesting parallel where they both experience an iteration of saving the princess in the tower, though the way george subverts this is immaculate in my opinion. gilly and jeyne are so far from the princess/maiden archetype it’s heart breaking: in the literal sense neither of them are maidens as they no longer have their maidenhood and have been ‘defiled’ (i’m going by in-universe rules here) by evil men such as craster and ramsay. a sense of fabrication and imitation clings to them both, with gilly playing both a daughter and a wife to craster, and jeyne being passed off to the boltons as arya stark.

in short, they are not, archetypically, at all similar to what a girl should be in order to be saved. they are broken they are hurt….

and yet they are saved all the same.

both sam and theon are characterised by their cravenly nature at the point in their narratives where gilly and jeyne are introduced. sam suffers from low self esteem as a result of his father’s constant abuse and bullying, while theon suffers the same both mentally and physically at the hands of ramsay.

what do these two men do, though, despite all that they have experienced so far?

they find it in themselves to save the girl. they are not knights they are not princes they are not even truly men, and yet they overcome all that limits them to save gilly and jeyne from their demons.

theon, who has thus far been only selfish and known as a traitor, puts aside all his fear and trauma to do something larger than himself: save himself and jeyne with him. sam, who has never been allowed the opportunity to show valour, who doesn’t even believe he has it in him after the relentless berating from his father, saves a girl in need because what is the night’s watch if not an organisation meant to protect the weak?
