Dia de Muertos, or Day of the Dead Animation, is a traditional Mexican holiday that is celebrated on November 1st and 2nd. The holiday is a time for people to honor and remember their deceased loved ones, and it has its roots in pre-Columbian traditions.

On Dia de Muertos, it is believed that the spirits of the dead return to the world of the living to be with their families and loved ones. To welcome them, people build altars in their homes and decorate them with bright flowers, candles, photos, and other offerings. They also prepare special foods and drinks, such as pan de muerto (a sweet bread) and calaveras de azucar (sugar skulls), which are decorated and used as offerings.

In many parts of Mexico, people also visit cemeteries to clean and decorate the graves of their loved ones, and to spend time with them. It is a time for reflection, celebration, and remembrance, and it is considered a joyful and colorful celebration of life and death.

Dia de Muertos has become a popular cultural event around the world, with celebrations and festivals held in many cities outside of Mexico. The holiday has also been recognized by UNESCO as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.

I hope you all have a good Yule/Christmas, I hope that my trans brother’s and sisters who have passed away due to violence and misunderstanding have found peace. I hope that all of us do not hide away anymore, instead lets live with grace and strength in their honor. Remember, if your religion calls for you to hate anybody, for any reason, then honey, your in a cult! Stay safe my family and friends, much love from here on the bayou. Remember, Laissez Bon Temps Rouler, (Let the good times roll!!!!)

@honorthedead liked X for an episode-based starter

“You’d a known just how to handle this. How to handle her... make this right.” He’s standing over a shadow of a grave. Crooked cross, pocketwatch leaned against it. He’s standing in a forest clearing with blood soaking the earth, an image that’ll never blink out. He tilts his head, takes in the edge of the patient shadow standing behind him.

“Your kid looks just like you, know that?” A wry grin, tired and teasing. “Know how all you Asians look the same.”

He doesn’t question the specter when he finally looks over, Glenn standing at his elbow over his own grave. Just holds his gaze for few seconds before dropping it, a curl of familiar guilt working through him.

“Remember the way... way you were with Enid back then. Knew exactly what to say, how to make her feel safe. Shoulda had a chance to be that to Hershel. ...And now the asshole who stopped you from havin’ all that’s the one doin’ right by her. What the hell do I do with that?”

‘ you know, when a sign reads ‘dangerous. keep out,’ i kind of want to listen to it.’

“I know where we’re going.”  Still, he would tread cautiously here.  This may have been his home for quite some time, but things could change, and turn dangerous, in a heartbeat.  Besides, as he kept reminding himself every thirty seconds or so, it wasn’t just him this time.  He had another person, one far more fragile than himself, to worry about now.   Ignoring the presence of the unquiet dead was no longer an option.  Without turning, he went on.  “If you stay alert, and don’t stray from the path, we’ll be all right.”

Daryl/Beth. I’m all for them as a platonic ship and them having a deep bond/friendship and such, but when it’s romantic I’m not into it. Beth was like... what, sixteen when they met? And I just can’t see Daryl being romantically or sexually interested in such a young lady that he met while she was still a minor. That said, no hate towards people that like it, RP it, etc. It’s just not for me.

semi-plotted starter for @honorthedead​!

The Governor stared firmly at the soil he was overturning as the muscles in his arms and back ached from overexertion, sweat beading on his brow in the afternoon sun. Still he toils, shovel in his grasp as he works the ground to make this new plot suitable for farming, a task he found himself delegated often as he was not only capable of physical labour but also deserving of it in a type of punishment for the harm he’d caused. 

He’d been following Hershel’s guidance to the letter, ensuring that the earth was at its best before planting, and The Governor found himself quite surprised at just how well Hershel had forgiven the still-very-fresh past transgressions. The Governor figured Hershel must’ve admired Rick’s diplomacy, and in turn his own peculiar change of heart when he decided to lower Michonne’s katana. 

It was still strange portraying two personas: the Prison group knowing him only as The Governor while the River Camp called him Brian. He had then opted to maintain the “Brian Heriot” namesake for the time being. 

The past two weeks since that pivotal day had been uneasy at best. While some of the River Camp had decided to take Rick up on the offer of attempting to work together, many more had decided to try their luck with the wilderness. Reconnecting with the old Woodbury folk that the Prison group had previously taken in hadn’t entirely been a picnic for The Governor either. Regardless, he both understood the reasoning for and enjoyed his isolation, as he’d been assigned to stay in the farthest cell block from everyone else. 

Pausing for a moment in his work, The Governor plants the shovel into the ground and rests an elbow on it, allowing himself a moment of reprieve from his hard labour. As he looks up, he catches sight of Glenn approaching, and he shoots the man an impish look. 

“Come t’glare at me some more? Or maybe you wanna get another punch in?”

He’s mostly joking, but that doesn’t necessarily negate the sincerity of the sentiment. The Governor knows he’s well deserving of the treatment he’s had since opting to join the Prison. Holding Maggie’s father at blade’s end didn’t earn him any favour points on top of the already tense history. The Governor’s come to learn that Glenn was an incredibly protective man, a trait he both admired and found a little pathetic. 

Interacting with the people he directly had harmed with the circumstances as they were now ended up both a chore and an odd delight for him.

@honorthedead​ asked “  Do you believe rp’ing a ship adds to character development? “

        ooof. i’m torn on this one. i want to say yes simply because i have a TON of muses that have developed soo much from being in decent relationships, but at the same time. i can see where this question would come from. a truly bad person, would they be able to change because of one person? as much as i would like to think that the would, i don’t think that is possible. i’m a sucker for ships &&. a sucker for character development, but sometimes ships aren’t necessary for a character to become something more.

        long story short, not entirely. it can take more than just a ship to develop character but it can help aid it. does that make sense?

A few Vertebrae Garlands are left in the shop 💀🌿 Next Garland update will be in late April or early May. . . Why the delay? Well, mostly because we only use bones we have gathered from the woods & each batch we gather takes a month or more to clean. . . Cold winter temps slow down our outdoor maceration buckets & limits our time outdoors .. limiting our access to bones ❄️🌨️ . . - luckily, it's warming up & We have several sets of bones currently in the cleaning process that will be ready in a month or two 🦷 thank y'all so much for being patient and just super awesome in general 🖤 . . . . . . #vertebraegarland #vertebragarland #igatherthedead #deertalisman #deerbones #heathensofinstagram #witchyhome #animist #witchcraft #honorthedead #takeonlywhatyouneed #vultureculture #deadwhenwemet #bonecollecting https://www.instagram.com/p/CpWOe2jPXzx/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

❛ Welcome to the human race, asshole. ❜ (negan)

The Walking Dead Starters! - ACCEPTING

"Wow," He whispered firstly, voice low, quiet.

Not to disregard Glenn's words at all, but how BADASS did that sound? You rarely got that type of shit aimed at anyone these days, and, as of late ( as of dealing with Rick's group ) , it was in abundance. On the same level as Carl, arguably.

"That's some deep-seeded shit," He continued, the bat-wielding ' Saviour ' nodding to himself, "Yeah."

Stilling now, he observed the other for a moment. He seemed PISSED, which was expected, and yet determined. To do what exactly? Negan had a few very good, very real guesses.

"You remind me of someone else I do business with. You and Rick both," A thought that lasted a brief moment. "As far as I'm concerned, I'm the one with the bat. This IS the human race. The NEW WORLD ORDER. That's hard to accept, and I mean - - I killed your friends. It had to be done, but it happened nevertheless. You need to let go of that hate and start helping your friends scavenge... for ME."

🛑 stop my muse from doing something reckless

* random act prompts ( ACCEPTING.)

  seeing glenn this worked up is by far the most unsettling sight the archer has seen from him. always the level-headed, the rational and quick-witted when it came to bullshit the world threw in their faces. glenn becomes louder, the outraged fire suddenly ignited by the thugs they ran into and just so happened to steal the supplies he and daryl both worked so hard for– shit was going to escalate quick and maggie would never forgive him if he allowed glenn to be reckless and die for it. ❝listen t’me, it ain’t worth dyin’ over. they got more people, more weapons, ya see that.❞ but it’s not right, it’s not fair. oh, how he knows this more than anyone and had he been alone, daryl would have fought for those supplies until his last breath. yet, this isn’t about just his safety in the process and he cares about glenn more than a few cans of beans and some bandages. the laughs from the thugs only seem to make shit worse and dixon has to block the asian’s view, gaze stern and unwavering. ❝yer not gonna die over some goddamn can goods when ya got people back at home who are countin’ on us t’come back through those gates alive. let ‘em have it.❞ a firm nudge to glenn’s shoulder is cue to start backing away and leave before things turned into an all out gunfight that could end deadly.

“--I’m so very sorry, I haven’t been paying attention to...to anything you’ve been saying.” That comes across rather rude and he feels a pang of guilt; it wasn’t exactly their fault he couldn’t rightly concentrate. “Let me rephrase that;” Jasper starts again, eyes going to the sky as he attempts to find the correct sequence of words to explain his predicament to the other.

“I am...very, very drunk.” It’s 11 in the morning. “And I assure you on any other day I am just...a riveting conversationalist,” Which is probably hard to tell as he had such a monotones voice-- almost like a professor droning on. “But right now, I am currently using all my capacities to remain standing.”

“You need to eat something, you’ve been through a lot today.”

injuries starter || @honorthedead

The words filter through the static buzz in Daryl’s brain. He blinks a few times, willing his vision back into focus, and finds Glenn sitting next to him, a bowl of some gently steaming something in his hand.

His ass is numb from the concrete floor and the bars are digging into his back, and the sun’s crept off past the horizon at some point without him noticing but he doesn’t feel ready to move yet. His head shakes, and it feels like water sloshing between his ears. The smell of the food churns his empty stomach.

“Ain’t hungry.” His voice sounds raw, tight from hours-old sobbing. Days old? Nah, couldn’t have been days. Someone’d have got him before that.

Merle’s few possessions are laid out in front of him. Nothing that matters –– borrowed clothes mostly. The only thing he’d had that mattered after the dead rose up was his bike, and Daryl’s had that for months now. So what’s left to remember his brother? Just some body buried out in a field a few miles off. Just some samurai lady who might be dead if he hadn’t changed his mind.

Just some fading bruises on the face of the man next to him.

Daryl sighs, and takes the bowl.

“Know you never liked him. Ain’t no reason to, ‘specially after…” He wets his lips. They’re too dry. His eyes are too dry. When he blinks it feels like sandpaper scraping. He half-lifts the spoon and stares at it; lowers it back down. “He was an asshole. Did more bad than good in his life. Wanna say he got what he deserved, probably wouldn’t be wrong. But…” The tears still don’t come but he feels his breath going shaky, and cuts his gaze away toward the empty line of shadowed cells. He can’t cry about Merle in front of Glenn. In front of any of them. None of them’d say it, but they’re all thinking the same thing: it’s better like this.

He sinks his dry eyes shut.

“He wasn’t all that. He’s the only reason I’m still breathin’. Wouldn’t a made it five years, wasn’t for him. And the two times he’s needed me since the world ended, I’m too fuckin’ slow to help. The hell does that make me?”

[feathers-and-face]

There is a loneliness that can be rocked. Arms crossed, knees drawn up, holding, holding on, this motion, unlike a ship's, smooths and contains the rocker. It's an inside kind--wrapped tight like skin. Then there is the loneliness that roams. No rocking can hold it down. It is alive. On its own. A dry and spreading thing that makes the sound of one's own feet going seem to come from a far-off place.

Toni Morrison, Beloved

I found this quote so appropriate today. Today is what I call Isabel's Day. My twins were born on Aug 9th, but we went home with only one. I chose Aug 6th to honor the one that passed so that Layla's bday can be untainted by the inherent sadness. So on this day every year, I feel the grief, the loss, and the emptiness. And then we swing into the celebration in days to follow. But just for today.. Saudade: The presence of absence. I do not miss you, you are Missing From Me.
