The DH2 Void wants what the Dunwall City Trials Void has.

#dishonored #dunwall city trials #the void #feeling like pure shit just want her back (the Dunwall City Trials Void) #floating islands with actual shit on them #random lamp posts and chains #lighting with god rays #i like both versions of the Void but despite the better graphics the DH2 Void felt incredibly plain #the closest the sequels ever got to this was the Ritual Hold imo

I think about Cormac McCarthy’s dedication to The Border Trilogy an awful lot these days.

(Printed at the end of Cities of the Plain).

we should give the keeper characters noticeable birthmarks. can’t believe they don’t have them—not like “Biana has a birth mark in the shape of a dagger hehe” but like. there’s a big ass light splotch on Keefe’s shoulder he doesn’t think about because he can’t see it, or there’s this dark mark on marella’s arm curving around her biceps. real birthmarks, sincerely someone with one because they’re cool as hell

#kotlc #keeper of the lost cities #my birthmark had gotten lighter as I’ve gotten older #but i have a big noticiable mark above my left knee #well not as noticeable anymore because it’s gotten lighter #(the main one at least. I got others) #but it was more noticeable growing up #and people would point it out #i hardly even think of it anymore because it’s just. my body. it’s how I am #but sometimes I notice it and go hey #how do none of the keeper characters have birthmarks #ur telling me these bitches plain? #i refuse #to believe

what was bucky calling himself in romania? did he use the romanian variant of James (Iakob) when he talked to people and had to give them a name? how did he even learn romanian? does he have romanian heritage? did he learn it during the war? how did he pay rent? was he working in construction or as a line cook or something? did he have a little old lady as a neighbour who thought he was too skinny and lonely and forced him to eat with her at least once a week? did she make him help with cooking so he could make the food himself? did he go to the orthodox church with her? did the local kids like him? did he cut his hair himself or did he brave going to a barbers to keep it at a length he liked? did he like talking to market sellers about fruit because it was an easy conversation and a way for him to get used to socialising?

i have SO many questions about bucky in romania

#like i know it was just a nod to sebstan being romanian which is very cute imo #but also the logistics of this #is bucky romanian? is his mother romanian and changed her last name when she married his dad? #did he grow up orthodox or protestant? #why romania? #its a smart move going to a capital city and hiding in plain sight especially considering how much he physically changed over those two yea #homeboy was eating snacks all the time and absolutely thriving #except the whole 'sleeping bag on the mattress' situation but you know what i mean #sometimes i think about sebstan in interviews talking about being romanian and the cultural effects of that #his mother reading coffee dregs (like reading tea leaves) and being raised orthodox christian #i wonder how much of that bleeds into bucky #because bucky choosing romania of all places kind of implies some kind of connection #beyond the connection with the soviet arm of hydra #bucky barnes #bucky meta #bucky barnes meta #mcu meta #cacw meta #civil war meta #marvel #mcu

Living in a mountainous area lowkey kinda gay. You built your whole house on something *rock hard*? And you have sex there? Damn, kinda sus

Living in a wooded area ain't no better. Got all them haaaard trees around you? Tall cylinders of wood just standing at attention everywhere you look?

A beach is just lesbian land. Every place you take a step is soft; everywhere you look is wet, and everybody in the world wants to vacation there

A city? You realize you have to ERECT a city?

A village in the middle of the plains? Just plain gay, that's what that is

And an island? That's got mountains AND beaches. Islands are genderfluid bisexuals.

I don't know where all these "straight" "cis" people live. Must be in fantasyland. But then again "fantasyland" sound kinda gay too

#for legal reasons this is a joke #being silly #you're gay now #congratulations #still joking #unless you're gay #then congratulations #village in the plains is also the transition area from one city to the next #villages are trans

I had to do a little bit of it by hand, and tbh I still want to change a few things (Ahnia's south border is too low, it should be higher, but I decided I didn't wanna fiddle with it any more asldknfa) but!!! Here's a map of Brinnela!

#[worldbuilding] #[royalty verse] #You can tell I had to freehand some of this because the map wouldn't fully generate/fit into the frame I was given #but! Yeah! Here it is! #The capitals are the little black dots #and in the Plains #the upper left capital is...probably the closest spot to where the regular Aifaen would consider a capital-- it's right on top of Bralis #which is where they do any big group meetings if they have to #while the lower right one is the Vash-Aifaen capital...which is actually a city yeah

Side of a building. Plain. And going into the sky. Interesting color has a building.

Side of a building, A little in a style of mirror. With different elements.

So, when I see such buildings. I remember game Mirror`s Edge. So the idea – edge, plains, sky and buildings.

Periodic reminder of the greatest line in an anime dub ever.

#cyber city oedo 808 #no but seriously this is hilarious because it just comes out of nowhere #the little seinfeld type synth riff at the end is chef's kiss #the story is kind of meh but the visuals are INCREDIBLE #man the 90s were wild #OP's title of the video is just plain incorrect #I'm not sure they would get away with this today #localisation v translation #Youtube
