#it is not a fantasy epic tho

[cerealforkart]

Oh no somebody seeing my lovesong art and saying “apparently this is DnDads it looks cool I love this stuff”

I’m so sorry stranger, this podcast actually isn’t about a trans princess on an epic quest, grappling with the guilt of her actions, reconnecting with her family, and falling in love with the prince of hell. That’s a secret subplot only some of us have noticed and unlocked

#dndads #dungeons and daddies #lovesong #noodly #it was the #I don’t make mistakes I make choices #piece #which is a nuance I made up #I’ve committed false advertising #the real podcast is great! #it is not a fantasy epic tho #and Sparrow and Nicky are not the main characters

Not me thinking Liandrin might be a double agent and/or playing some kind of long con on the forsaken SOLELY bc her evil cloak she’s started wearing is a really dark navy blue — which would side her with the blue ajah who are the spies — instead of full black which would obviously be black ajah. WoT costume department I’m paying attention, I see y’all 👀

#I’m pretty sure this is not an accurate theory sadly #but cmon #like ok she kidnaps the wonder girls but then frees Nynaeve clearly thinking girl will fuck shit up #then lanfear kills her son but she does nothing to stop her supposed reason for turning to the dark #and finally she tells barthanes of all ppl to kill moiraine #like really??? #sorry no she knows that boy is not getting anything done that was a setup #just me trying to sneak a con into this fantasy epic #what’s her game tho?? #liandrin guirale #wheel of time #wot #wot s2 #wot s2 spoilers #wot show spoilers #oh and she openly hates the seanchan

i have been trying to design dorky dragon vigilante outfits for the urban fantasy au for like WEEKS and i simply . i simply hate everything ive come up with

#the only concept ive liked is that they paint motorcycle helmets #to hide their faces bc secret identities are cool <3 #i think hiccup and fishlegs would be like guys we arent superheroes dont give urselves names... and everyone else would be like STFU!!!!!!! #astrid has standards tho. the names have to be epic. she gatekeeps snotlout from naming himself the snotman #urban fantasy httyd au #heliichats

when i write the romance it's usually sooooo sappy but like target audience is me and I am crazy so like it works.

#looking through this little destiel thing I wrote bc i was getting bored and they are being insane I am obsessed with them. #like they're just like being stupid #holding each other and being stupid and self sacrificing and they kiss ane cry and then they are like #bonded forever because profound bond baby #also thos is a royal fantasy au inspired by one of my favourite epic adventure stories inspired by persian folklore #and i have many versions of it but i wrote this one scene because i hadn't written anything in a while and i wanted to #AND IM LIKE AWWWWWWWWWWW #anyway when they love each other so much and say stupif shit yhat might not mean anything but like it does tho #'i have loved you' castiel says 'from the birth of memory.' #<— what does that mean? well in rhe larger context it means SOMETHING but i can't explain all that to anyone so it's just something i swoon #over in private #also something so special about childhood besties to lovers destiel. TO ME. like they were ALWAYS each other's home!! AHHHHH #I MEAN. okay like i get the noy having anyone for so long and then having each other of it also #they have the range for both but PERSONAL PREFERENCE WHEN THEY ARE BABIES AND HOLD HANDS EVEN THEN BC THEY'RE FRIENDS #ANYWAY

Wait okay okay hold on. That puss in boots movie that people keep talking about. Is the plot of that seriously that Death is pissed off at puss for arrogance/burning through his lives and decides to take it upon himself to kill him?

Because uh. That's the plot of my favorite homestuck fanfiction.

#I can't believe there's a hit children's movie that has a near-identical plot point to fucking Vanitas Vanitatum #the mildly prnographic machiavellian dirkjohn fantasy epic #tho in that version death just gets pissed off at John for constantly killing his doubles and leaving Death stuck with them #but like. it's similar enough that I saw someone mention that plot point just now #and was immediately reminded of VV #that's so funny #invasion of the frogs #also no I haven't actually seen that movie and do not plan to :)

nurusara’s division rep battle yokohama version feat. guest announcer rosho and guide juto????? 🤔

#this is vee speaking #the arb chronicles #i have no idea lol we have to wait until the event #it’ll be nice if we get rosho and juto actually conversing this time tho lol #i can’t remember if we found out sasara has a youtube via the 2gumi fantasy event or not #but since juto is a gamer and rosho’s becoming one i saw people suggest it’s video game related lol #which would be fun lol we could either get victorious rosho juto teamwork #or an epically loud face off between them lol #with sasara commentating their battle!!!! #and maybe whoever wins has to face sasara as a final boss since it’s his channel lol but that’s enough scenario crafting outta me lol

I've heard a lot about House of Chains being a slight step down from the previous two books but... idk I'm liking it better than Memories of Ice so far

#DG is still my favourite rn tho #chapter 6; 29% #I think it's a taste thing? I preferred DG's verisimilitude and despair whereas MoI was epic fantasy in a specific way that isn't my thing? #well as much. I still rlly liked it #guess it comes down to like. I'm like eh on the way both the tenescowri and the seven cities folks (in deadhouse gates) are depicted #yk like as armies to fight with not that much interiority #yea tenescowri get the whole wolf's reve thing but like #eh? yk? #but like the tenescowri seems so incredibly evil on all levels that idk #I detach #my rambles #apollo reads malazan #gotta reread both but yea

when I was back in sweden my brother took my old asoiaf books to his and his gfs place bc his gf has been meaning to read them and its like I'm a toddler because despite 1) never finishing the third book and 2) not caring for the series at all since the first season of got even aired (I got through ep 1 five times and about half of ep 2 about 3 times before I gave up) I'm like hmmm i wish i brought them to scotland with me instead of giving them away to my brother maybe I DO wanna speed read asoiaf now and let it consume my free time for the next few weeks but its like GIRL NO what you WANT to read is tales from earthsea. get it right

#what i NEED to read is vampire erotica. but visually. with my eyes and ears. #i think i have a like epic fantasy genre need tho if anyone has any recommendations

me last week: decides to download "Epic Fantasy" and Dislyte to pass time when waiting for AP to refill and/or main quests for Swordbeauties to unlock so I don't use up all my Golden Fruits

me now: getting too invested in figuring out the lore for the most basic idle hero collector rpg ever looking like the confused math woman

#not fate #epic fantasy idle rpg #dislyte #is also kind of fun i guess #swordbeauties has been mostly fun so far but i got to take a break sometimes or the constant QP grinding would drive me insane #plus i have less than 50 golden fruit left rn so im hesitant to use them #really tho there is no story to playing 'epic fantasy' you literally just put characters in squads and fight thats literally it #yet here i am trying to figure out how many countries there are which kingdoms are in which country and whos at war with who #from character bios that are anywhere from one to five paragraphs long and only appear if you specifically seek them out

[sixtynineinchnails]

top five movies?

i just answered an ask for top 5 horror movies and my top 5 fave movies include some of those so a few of these are repeats -_-

1. Fight Club (1999)

2. Saw (2004)

3. American Psycho (2000)

4. The Chronicles of Narnia movies because direct contact with those films does something nuclear to my inner child

and i cannot pick an exact 5th movie but the specific indie movie subgenre about fucked up shit happening to teen boys like L.I.E (2001), Mysterious Skin (2004), Gummo (1997) etc; those kinda movies rly inspire and influence my own writing the most

thanks for the ask ily <3

#i also love crash and the batman and don’t look up and a bunch of fantasy/scifi epics like lotr and dune and shit (not star wars tho!) #and probably a million more that imma remember later and be mad about not mentioning #asks

Sometimes I honestly feel like I’m not welcome in the aspec community because I dare to call myself aroace despite liking romance

#not for liking spicy stuff weirdly but I do feel excluded from the spicy stuff fandom for being a virgin who’s never going to change that #I thought happiness for beginners was a fun and cute movie #and I’m still obsessed with F.T. Lukens’ newer books #which are ya fantasy romance and they are so cute and wholesome #and just like drop a whole bunch of happiness onto me #I also love stand still stay silent which so far has had no romance #(I haven’t finished it yet tho) #I really don’t need romance in my epic fantasy I honestly don’t like it there #but I’m not like terribly upset by it #I think Shallan and Adolin from the Stormlight archive have a great relationship #and there’s another romantic relationship that is very impactful to the plot and politics so that’s good #but if Sanderson tries to give Kaladin a main romance in KoWT I swear I will eat that man #(not an actual threat lol) #I just like his character arc and don’t think it would benefit from romance #and for some reason I just can’t see him in a romantic relationship

Last month, Fire & Flight and I were featured in Kirkus Reviews magazine as part of their special indie books issue🥳🎉 The Q&A has since been shared on Kirkus' website so I thought I'd share it here if anyone wanted to learn more about what writing process was like for F&F and some insight into the trilogy's cover design.

I'm ngl, this kind of exposure is still super surreal and I'm still pinching myself😅

Learn more about Fire & Flight (Heirs of Tenebris trilogy #1) on my masterlist or shop now at your favorite bookstore: books2read.com/fire-flight :)

#my writing #writeblr #bookblr #ya fantasy books #fantasy books #bookworm #interview #author interview #fantasy book recs #epic fantasy #high fantasy #y'all this was wild and i had so many questions about doing this or not but i'm glad i did because it's cool (still surreal tho)😂

i love sebastian and i hate sebastian and i want to give him a maraca because i think it would be funny and ALSO i want to put him in a maraca and shake him around because i think that would be even funnier. i contain multitudes.

#it’s actually very simple #the barebones of sebastian-as-a-character are DEEPLY compelling to me. unfotunately his writer fucking sucks #in the hands of a writer who is good and can Do Nuance sebastian would be my cringefail princess. #and in my head he IS that. #unfortunately in game he’s a guy i want to throw eggs at sometimes. and then otherwise a guy who’s like. there. #he is arguably one of the funnier companions tho. not on purpose of course. #it’s just real funny to me that as a dlc character his epic fantasy-book questline has ZERO impact on the main da2 plot #also i think that they should have had sebastian in the basegame but literally just at the end. #some guy screaming crying swearing revenge. hawke and co like “do i know you????”. hilarious in my brain #aNYWAY UH. #YEAH SORRY. just had sebastian thoughts. it happens sometimes #da2

[basilinixe]

aaaaAAAH i apologize to my mutuals for the burning kingdom books spam, but it’s literally!! so good!!! and there are only two fanfictions of it!! two!! how am i supposed to survive??

#anyway please read it #its so good #its a fantasy book inspired by indian epics and history #with morally gray lesbians #written by a queer woc #i couldnt recommend it enough #but check trigger warnings first tho #basil rambles

[sootandfangdiary]

Is there a favorite creature or race of fantasy being that you like more than any other? Such as, are dragons your favorite or dwarves or knights?

Oh I absolutely adore dragons!!! Even taking away my kin bias I still love dragon a whole bunch ! Vampires are second, if they count, and elves are a close third !

I also really like shapeshifters, no matter the name they call themself

#all fantasy races are epic tho #I just love fantasy #dragon answers
