This is kinda a part two to this post here, about Ballister’s scar. Specifically I wanted to speculate a bit on Ballister’s relationship with Queen Valerin when you consider the fact that he was a mistreated and vulnerable child when he met her

Like. Look at this moment here

She’s reassuring him. She genuinely believes in him, and it’s clear from the knighting ceremony, when she specifically lowers her voice to tell him how much she’s been looking forward to this moment that her intentions around him a pure. She wants to change things, she wants to give this kid a chance, and she’s killing two birds with one stone by making him a knight

But like Nimona herself says, question everything

Look a little bit closer at this image — the queen is well dressed and already had a statement prepared. Ballister is dressed in rags and looks like he hasn’t even been given the chance to wash his hair. He looks surprised and a little scared when the media erupts with questions. And I don’t think this was the Queen’s doing, necessarily — odds are the Director was the one who was supposed to prepare Ballister, and chose not to, because she probably knew that while the Queen wouldn’t judge him for looking like the homeless kid he was, the media would. Still, it shows that while the Queen has overall say on Ballister’s future, she doesn’t have a lot to do about his present

Ballister says he loves the Queen, but it’s hard to tell if he meant he loves her like you’d love a family member, or if he “loves” her like someone who has been raised to not question authority “loves” said authority. He took a deep breath and looked to Ambrosius during the knighting ceremony, not to her. She realistically probably wasn’t super involved, even if she wanted to be — she had an entire kingdom to run, other knights to knight, and likely spent her days making progressive decisions that were controversial with the conservatives in her kingdom. Plus, if she had been super involved, it could’ve increased bias against him, like she was favoring him above everyone else — Ambrosius seemed overall not sure popular among the knights, and while they respected his authority when he was put it charge, there was definitely a vibe that they resented him for being the “Golden Boy” descendant of Gloreth.

Let’s compare Bal and Queen Valerin to Comic!Ballister Blackheart and one of the Queen’s inspirations, Dr. Blitzmeyer (the other was the king, who was a basically prop that was referenced heavily in relation to Ballister as someone he should kill before dying off screen).

Blackheart and Blitzmeyer end the comic opening a lab together, working as co-scientists. Blackheart clearly thinks of her as a friend, but she thinks of him as a fond colleague for most of the comic — she’s happy to offer help in the form of exposition, and she helps him save the day by giving him a McGuffin That You Just Gotta Read The Comic To Understand, but part of her is worried he’s a rival scientist that wants to steal her ideas. She still welcomes him in her home and offers him team. When he’s at the end of his rope and needs a comfort hug, she awkwardly indulges him

She’s surprised when he puts her down as his emergency contact

Dr. Blitzmeyer is a quirky scientist that hangs out on conspiracy forums and probably practices witchcraft for the sake of scientific study. Queen Valerin is a warm and progressive monarch who makes controversial decisions. And they make big decisions regarding helping Ballister

Remember the reluctant McGuffin handover?

She’s weighing the odds of him lying to her and stealing/tampering with/destroying it, hesitating before trusting him. If she had said no, a lot more people would’ve died in the comic, but she had no way of knowing that. She was barely interested in looking out her window and just worried the thing she spent years on would be wrecked

Now, the Queen — we don’t see her weigh the pros and cons of letting Bal become a knight, but she had to. And consider what she was presented with: a homeless kid with either no family or an abusive one judging from his scars and bruises. He had no adults in his life to protect him. No one to tell her no, making him essentially a child soldier might not be in his best interest. And he jumped a fence into the middle of a knight training session declaring he wanted to be a knight, basically coming to her — essentially the perfect candidate for her semi-social experiment

I can totally see her in another world letting this kid into her home and giving him tea and comfort, but I don’t think she could here. While she meant good, she took in a kid with nothing to lose and gave him everything to lose (a home, education, likely his first friend, safety), while also putting him under unavoidable social pressure. And she did it while the only adult figure other than her in his life, the one who would actually be involved in his upbringing — the Director — openly and defiantly failed him from the get go, and protested letting him join the knights to her face

Y’all I adore Queen Valerin, even if we only got her for like five minutes. Even if it’s in a speculative sense I like that she’s a good person while morally gray actions. She very much improved Ballister’s circumstances by giving him a home and the opportunity to pursue his interests. She clearly cared about him. She’s also a politician who, even if unavoidably, lowkey set him up to be a scapegoat without a backup plan and no outside support

Like. Y’all.

Inktober day 17: scales

I could've gone an easier route and drawn Nimona as a scaly animal for this prompt, but I really wanted to draw doctor Meredith Blitzmeyer so I drew pretty science related scales :)

arm-upgrading is a love language

Ballister's family offers suggestions for upgrading his arm. Not all of them seem practical.

"Hey boss, whatcha doin'?"

Ballister startles and looks up from his desk. "Just working on designing a new prosthetic arm prototype. I want to figure out how to make it work for different socket locations, not just the shoulder. Maybe figure out some better protection for the exposed wiring. Improved sensor sensitivity would be nice..."

He sees Nimona's eyes glaze over and smirks. "I also want to find room for a flashlight and a grappling gun." His (relatively) bulky armor can fit an impressive amount of emergency supplies in his custom storage pockets, but streamlining his kit is always good. Besides, he isn't wearing armor as much these days.

Mentioning the grappling gun was apparently just the hook she needed. "Oh — I've got an idea for an upgrade! You should decorate it!"

does anybody know if Stevenson ever drew Dr Blitzmeyer without the goggles on? I went through the Nimona tag on his tumblr and found nothing, but I don’t really know how to search Twitter or Instagram. I doubt she takes them off much but like girl’s gotta sleep at some point and I’m curious if there’s a jumping-off point or if I should just go full headcanons.

I'm going back through the notes on the WIP Wednesday post, so this might be a week late. "Band AU" please?

Ah, no worries really!

Band AU:

"See?" Meredith said as she hopped onto the bus. "Not late! You both worried for nothing!"

"We could've been, and then we would have lost this contract." Ballister snapped back, but Meredith wasn't listening to him anymore as she opened up her phone and looked up whatever tea his mother had recommended to her. Nimona could only roll their eyes exasperatedly at her.

Thank you for the nudge!

Meredith Blitzmeyer Appreciation Day?

If I am understanding the Wayback Machine correctly, it looks like she made her first appearance in the webcomic on June 7, 2013.

Might be a good day to reblog some Meredith Blitzmeyer fanart, read/rec/comment on some fanfic, make some new fanwork, do some science, or simply enjoy some tea. :)
