#in this setting and time period

[honeydots]

Assuming based on previous ask you're not going for an mpreg interp with Soleil and Siegbert, who do you imagine being the egg donor/surrogate for the babies?

OH im gonna use this ask as an excuse to ramble about some tangentially related stuff, ive got this headcanon that there's some (slightly experimental?) reproductive magic at play :O not that i don't think there would be a surrogate involved, but i like the thought of there being an already existing science for this. as far as the actual surrogate goes, i prefer not using any in-game/named character! i think it gets too complicated, especially with parenting. usually i imagine this isn't an entirely unusual process, and so a """royal surrogate""" of sorts is a role that's filled when necessary. but again, i don't like using canon characters for that role.

#this hc came partially from henry actually!!! #there's SOMETHING of his (can't remember what) where it says he's trying to lessen the pain women go thru during childbirth #and that kinda got me thinking abt reproductive magic attending to solve existing problems #i.e how do couples who cannot physically have kids--but WANT kids--have them #in this setting and time period #i feel like in nohr camilla might be someone who starts specializing in this after the war #alongside her working with orphans and things #i like it for her.... #anyway that's probably more of an answer than you expected hahaha #dots answers asks #anonymous

Gortash designs and builds mechanisms so I imagine he has to be able to sketch fairly decently in order to sketch his projects and designs. And I'm imagining a pile of charcoal sketches of Durge, done over their entire acquaintance, starting out with sketches of them in battle and then slowly becoming more detailed and intimate and as they do, the titles changing from things like "The Bhaalspawn" and "Bhaal's Chosen at Their Bloody Work" to "The Chosen in Contemplation" and finally just Durge's name

#it's speculated that the individual pictured in these sketches is [name] who was thought to have resolved the absolute crisis #But the existence these drawings may suggest it was merely a hoax to improve their reputation #Idk man I just love the idea of Gortash keeping this series of sketches of durge #I admit a crazy fic idea I've been rotating is the idea of an art history commentary set 100 years after the events of the game covering #The art found in Gortash's estate after his death and how people would interpret it and their potential relationship #And link to first hand descriptions of the time and academic papers and all that #Stuff like “see Elerrathin et al for analysis on the class dynamics of formal portraits and new money during this period” or something #enver gortash #dark urge #dark urge x gortash #durgetash #baldur's gate 3 #bg3 #bg3 spoilers

#I've been occassionally watching/listening to episodes of TOS while I draw #and let me tell you - Kirk is FAR less joyful than you all would have had me believe #everyone on that shows talks like they're trying not to wake someone in the next room [not a positive or negative thing] #I do like the slightly surreal-feeling setting of the ship and I do wish adaptations of that time period worked to make it look #more like 60's poor budget technicolor surrealism retrofuture (with a budget this time) rather than .... minimalist modern white. #Spock #TOS #star trek #bea art tag #note: you all = general interpretation of Kirk I've seen in fandom and from reboots etc. #Kirk in adaptations is like a wisecracking cool guy who loves having fun #Kirk in TOS (so far) seems like he's about to be crushed under the weight of it all at any moment & also like he's vaguely irritated #at all times [again not positive or negative I just didn't expect it - he's so serious!]

idk what it is about horror movies that take place in the 70′s and 80′s but i love it. Let me see a bitch with a mullet running for his life. ominous revving of a chainsaw in the background as oingo boingo plays. this is where i thrive. 

#tj talks #idk why i just enjoy things set in that time period for some reason #as i struggle to find a working link so i can watch the black phone #also if i wrote a random splurge drabble about a victim having a weird codependent sorta romantic relationship with a slasher would you read #i also have some frankie fluff on the stove atm so like. whatever works

You know you’re sort of just on a stage presenting pictures of your pretty gay dogs and every time you do more people cheer than who live in my hometown

I hope you feel good about that

#I don't know about the stage part #a lot of the time it's more like if I had a personal bulletin board #set up in front of the hole in the ground where I live in #and periodically I sneak out and pin up a new picture of my dogs #and maybe there's a guest book if you wanted to leave a comment #but I never saw you and you never saw me #answered #anonymous

"headcanoning mizu as transmasc is racist because mizu is half japanese" is SO disingenuous

you guys know there are transmasc japanese people right? there are transmasc people who are mixed race? is them existing also racist? should transmascs only be allowed to see similarities to their gender in white people?

#honestly some of you are using 'racism' as a cover to be overtly transphobic and it shows #blue eye samurai #there could be a discussion about interpreting historical gender from a modern lens. but just because bes is set in edo period japan #doesnt mean it isnt ALSO a modern tv show made by people who also did not live in that time period #but really the transmasc discourse (read: overt transphobia) is alive and well in 2023 and it really. Really shows. #my posts #trans #ftm #transandrophobia

thinking about how weird it is that centuries don't have numbers, but rather names. but technically the current year in DE is 8051.

#disco elysium #i guess it's a common enough trope in fantasy #like having time periods called the age of whatever #but a little unusual in a semi-modern setting #just seems like a pain in the ass for record-keeping #de lore

saw sequel set in the future. humanity has fallen. most arable land in the world is covered in plastic pollution. corrupt politicians halt recycling efforts in order to control the food supply. the people cry out for a hero to do something with all the plastic and punish the rich for their crimes. out from the shadows emerges.... cyberjigsaw...

#shitty saw traps #saw franchise #mod amanda #now i'm just thinking about saw sequels set in other time periods

lazy drawing for the day, i wanted to make a so-called shortstrider character. it's fairly common to see people like this (shortwing and landstrider parentage) around the dry breaks in the north-eastern dry. This consists of a dense multi-story network of mesas and stone pillars with a terraced appearance, not quite as vertically-arranged as a spire but still very three-dimensional, unlike the dry bowl. it mostly consists of a huge network of interconnected fishing villages as the sea flows around this honeycomb of rock.

shortstriders can't fly, can't glide well due to bone density, and can't hop efficiently on the flat (though his vertical jump is excellent). this one, a dock marshal, uses his beacon and reflective headgear to guide ships into port at night. he wears shoes which act as assistive devices to support his feet and stilts to make him a little taller (and more important-looking). the reflective disk is made from iridescent leviathan scale. due to the micro-structures in the scale, light is thrown back similarly to a high-vis vest or a cat's eye on the road. he can warp the surface of the scale and its reflective propertiies by increasing the tension of its housing bracket (operated by a screw on the side), and in conjunction with his beacon providing the light, can make flashing signals at approaching ships.

#time period uhhh maybe a couple centuries before The University Scandal #setting: siren #i saw the sex sweep in the poll i posted earlier today. well harpies can reproduce with one another even when body sizes are very different #for a specific reason which i guess i'll talk about later

For a book I’m writing, I am wondering if Hemet-Nisut is the correct title/last name for an ancient Egyptian handmaiden?

Hi there, thanks for the ask! ḥmt nswt means king's wife so it would not be an appropriate name for a handmaiden. It's a title, not a name. The ancient Egyptian's didn't have last names, it was a case of "[Name], son/daughter of [Name]". Here is a list of given names: [X] and another one [X], many names included the name of a god/goddess and they all have a meaning e.g. Ahmose = born of the god Iah (the moon god). If you need any more help, please let me know!

#answered #ask #listen to the audiobook or read the book death comes as the end #it is a great fictional story set in ancient egypt #24 hours in ancient egypt is also a wonderful book to get into the time period #that's also available as an audiobook #15pantheons #sorry i only saw this ask once i logged on with my laptop

You know how you sometimes stumble across things and you get this intense feeling that this product didn't have a single woman working on it? Yeah.

I read this phrase a year ago and I have not known peace since (which I'm sure pleases Khorne). And yes, I now headcanon that followers of Khorne fund their misadventures by selling period products.

I'm sorry.

Patreon, society6, and redbubble don't offer Khorne-themed menstrual products, but by the Chaos Gods they should.
