#legend of the fire princess icons
Note
Rereading the Scalding Sands event and seeing your post about Jamil's childhood friend got me thinking about it again, and I had some thoughts that are probably completely off-base but I had to somehow release them into the wild anyway, haha. I hope that's alright!
I think the most popular theory is that Jamil's friend is a twisted version of Iago, which makes a lot of sense considering his dynamic with Jafar and how iconic they are as a duo. That said, Iago has been referenced by the game in other ways (Jamil wanting a parrot as a pet, the Iago plushie for the guest room) which makes me wonder whether there's any other alternatives for who his friend might be...and the next characters that come to mind are Aladdin and Abu.
I find it really interesting that a lot of Jamil's childhood memories (hiding in the urn whenever in trouble, stealing the melon, haggling with merchants and running around the markets, etc...) seem to be direct references to specific scenes in Aladdin's first act (namely, stuff that happens during One Jump Ahead and the scene where he meets Jasmine) and that whenever he brings his friend(s) up it's usually within the context of getting up to some kind of mischief in the markets, which is something that (based exclusively on the source material) has a stronger association with Aladdin/Abu than it does with Iago. There's also that Bloom Birthday voiceline where he says one of his middle school friends would usually try to take his snacks from him, which also really reminds me of Abu, who gets several scenes where he's trying to steal or hog food in one way or another (the bread scene and the apple scene with Jasmine come to mind off the top of my head)
(.....Actually...the more I type this down, the more the little bits and pieces we know about his friend just start to sound like Ruggie..............I guess them getting along so well in the masquerade event makes a lot of sense, haha)
But in all fairness, I might be reading too much into it and forgetting something.....Still, I guess I was curious about other people's thoughts on the idea of twisted Aladdin or Abu as Jamil's friend. Does it sound plausible at all given what we know? Is it a theory that gets brought up often?
[Referencing this post!]
Tumblr media
I think it’s possible to reference a Disney character in the lore while also having a Twisted counterpart appear in the world of Twisted Wonderland itself! For example, we hear a lot about the mermaid princess of legend (Ariel), but we also know that Rielle (presumably Twisted!Ariel) exists. This is the case for many other characters as well, from side characters to the main cast itself.
I'm under the impression that most people think Jamil's middle school friend is Twisted!Iago, but that's mainly due to Jafar and Iago being such an iconic duo in the Aladdin movie. I personally haven't really thought about it much beyond that because I just really want Jamil to have a shitty sidekick 😂 I admittedly have a weakness for that kind of a dynamic, so in my heart I was praying and hoping hard for Iago to become canon when I first played through the Scalding Sands event! I went back to reread some parts of the event and the vignette mentioned but 🤔 I only saw Najma mention the "middle school friend" once in 3-11, though it wasn't in context to being up to mischief. It seemed to just be a remark that she, Jamil, and that friend hadn't been to the market together for a long time. In the other scenarios where Jamil was being mischievous, there didn't seem to be a mention of that friend. For example, when Jamil almost set the fruit stand on fire and when he hid in an urn, he seemed to be acting alone. For the latter situation, Jamil was specifically hiding from his parent, not up to trouble with the middle school friend. In Jamil’s Yasmina Silk vignettes, silk melon vendor does mention that Jamil (alone) once swiped fruit from their stall, but Jamil reminds him that he just didn’t have money that day. He paid the vendor back by wrapping money up in a scrap of paper and placing it with a melon rind.
A lot of the activities that Jamil gets up to as a kid are references to the things that Aladdin has done, but I actually didn’t see an instance where the lone middle school friend was implicated to be a part of Jamil's antics. The best I could find was that Jamil mentions having friends (plural) that he detoured through the Camal Bazaar with (in Yasmina Silk vignettes and voice lines). In the vignettes, Jamil says “things happened”/stayed vague about other events that happened in the market, but Trey teases him by bringing up the instance when Jamil (alone) stole from the fruit vendor. Even if Jamil’s middle school friends were cited to have been involved, Jamil mentions multiple friends; there’s no way to confirm it was the specific friend that Najma brought up during the event itself. I think that story was shared less to drop lore about the middle school friend and more about showing the contrast between the freedom Jamil had back in middle school versus how he is in present day, bound by his duties to the Asims; he talks about how he experienced a lot of things during that period, including arguing with and ignoring his friends sometimes (which seems like a very normal friend thing to do, I could see this going either way since Jafar never got along with Aladdin or Abu, and even butted heads with Iago sometimes).
I believe the Broom Bloom Birthday voice lines are like... the most recent example of the friend was mentioned. Heck, it might actually be the only other time that friend is mentioned. It came to us quite a while after the initial release of the Scalding Sands Fireworks event (and in a far more limited place), so it may have been overlooked. This detail (of stealing Jamil's snacks) does lend some credence to the Aladdin or Abu theory; I don't think Iago was that eager to eat the crackers offered to him by the Sultan in the movie 😂 But I think it’s also possible (given that Jamil mentioned he had many middle school friends) that he could be talking about a different friend??
It’s possible that the middle school friend was characterized in other lines or stories (there’s a lot of them out right now, and I can’t possibly comb through them all), so there may be details I overlooked 😅
In any case, TWST didn't give too many specifics about one specific middle school friend so there's enough plausible deniability that they could be some other Twisted character, not exclusively just Twisted Iago. I think you brought up a lot of interesting points about the potential for that friend to be a Twisted!Aladdin or a Twisted!Abu! 👁 It's not a theory that I feel like I've seen all too often, so it definitely offers a new perspective and makes me excited to hear other thoughts and theories! ... Now I want to see more of Jamil and Ruggie interacting with each other--

Tumblr media
The toborochi tree is an emblematic icon of Santa Cruz de la Sierra, it is present in its coat of arms (granted by the King of Spain Don Felipe IV in 1636). It is a symbol of the hospitality of its people, as indigenous people used to take refuge in the hollow trunks of the toborochi.
Toborochis are not only beautiful, they are also an important food source and refuge for parrots and other kind of birds and insects besides other native wildlife such as sloths and monkeys. Don’t you think there should be even more toborochis all across the city? Wouldn’t you love a city filled with toborochis? We should also feel very grateful for the excellent shade they give us, shelter in the heat of the summer.
Tumblr media
The Bolivian (Guaraní origin) legend over the toborochi says that long time ago, a beautiful pregnant princess called Araverá (Sparkle in the sky) hid inside a tree to give birth to the (colibrí) hummingbird god’s child. The Añas, evil spirits decided to kill her because they thought that she would give birth to a powerful god prince who would punish and destroy them. So they went looking for the girl riding on fire-breathing flying horses, but Aravera escaped from the village on a flying seat, a gift from her husband. After months of being chased by the evil spirits, she decided to return to earth and hide inside the trunk of a toborochi tree where she gave birth. The thorns of the tree protected her from the Añas.
Tumblr media
Her son grew up and he fulfilled the prophecy when he finally took revenge from the evil spirits, but princess Araverá stayed inside the tree until she died. According to the legend the toborochi is a sacred tree, the spirit of Araverá still remains inside. Every year, in the autumn she comes out in the shape of the tree’s beautiful pink flowers to stay in contact with her husband, her big and eternal love. The pink blossoms of the toborochi tree do, in fact, attract hummingbirds. The fragrant toborochi flower is also known as “flor de mayo” (May flower).

The Big Four's Patron Gods
I decided to do Greek gods and like how that manifests basically? Use it for Witchcraft AU, Pagan HCs, Percy Jackson crossovers, whatever u want idc it’s my free to use headcanons lmao
Rapunzel - Apollo
Tumblr media Tumblr media
You've seen her, you know her, she's the lost princess, the saviour, the home bound, the baker, the signer-songwriter and a painter. Rapunzel's artistic and inspiring nature make her a perfect contestant to be under the patronage of Apollo!
Apollo is the god of the sun, music, the arts and like 12 more other things. He’s renowned for his work with artists and many pagans today worship the patron god of plagues the arts.
The only other guesses I have for her are Helios (Greek) or Grannus (Celtic)
Raps is a great contender for anything that’s like “art is a prayer” and artistic actions and whatnot? Yeah she’s your good’n’kind classical bard here!
Merida - Artemis
Tumblr media Tumblr media
She's got red curly hair, stands at 5'4'' (my height ladies and gentlemen) and has once turned her mother into a bear!! Her skills in archery, independence and the like make her a great choice for Artemis!
Artemis is the goddess of the hunt, the moon, chastity and like her twin brother Apollo, like 12 other things. But most importantly here, archery. She is known to be a symbol of protection of children as well.
Her Gaelic god-parent would be Arduinna
Merida seems to be more attuned to acts of devotions like riding, hunting and archery rather than calm prayer, poetry and the like. Artemis is absolutely a guide she could go with all in all!
Hiccup - Hapheastus
Tumblr media Tumblr media
You’ve seen him, you know him, he's the only one with more than one movie, and despite 1/3 of a leg missing, HE'S STILL KICKING! Make way for Hiccup, under the patronage of Hapheastus!
Hapheastus is the god of blacksmiths, metalworking, carpenters, craftsmen, artisans, sculptors, metallurgy, fire (compare, however, with Hestia), and volcanoes— this one deserves a long list cuz he’s a sweetheart tbh
Brokk and Sindri are the closest Norse equivalent that would fit in here!
Not the most well known god, but hiccup who works as an apprentice in the shop, would be delighted to be under this god. He is the patron and protector of workers and forges many great weapons, hiccup’s fire sword could be a devotion to him!
Jack Frost - Hermes
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The man, the myth, the legend, he's the fan favourite and he's an icon: Jack Fost! He may not be a messenger, but he does give Sheperd vibes with his staff! Anyways, his patron God would be Hermes.
Hermes is a trickster, a psychopomp and messenger of the gods, descendant of an older Pan, he’s a chaotic character well associated with tricks and jokes! He’s also the god of shepherds, cattle and livestock, making him a pretty multi-tasking guy on the day-to-day basis!
Jack’s relationship with the god, something else as it is with most Hermes kids ig, if anything though, his work would absolutely be through actions, his connection with the wind and frost brings Zagreus and Boreas to mind, but rather in an accessory way. Either way; Both Hermes and Jack rule.
*i might edit this in further later lol*
*edited once so far*

TSUKIHIME FASHION REVIEW!
Ok y’all i may be new here but im glad to introduce my _fashion review_!!!
Yes you read that right your beloved arcadia shall break down the single greatest visual novel known to mankind and review the drip contained within its sacred uhh program ig
Lets get right to it with our very own lunar legend ARCUEID
Tumblr media
Arcueid Brunestud
The icon, the goddess, the brain of the planet, and my very own wife (don’t correct me please) Arcueid Brunestud has a umm unique fashion taste…
Tumblr media
Her OG version is certainly a drip of all times.. im not the biggest fan but hey who am i to argue with my wife (again dont correct me here)? the granny skirt is well… its a skirt!! and she has a white shirt too!!! What is this; the 50s?
On the other hand, i love her hair and will fight anyone who says different. In fact, her hair here is better then it is in the remake and thats a fact because i said so and my opinion is objectively correct.
Tumblr media
I kneel before her. I can see why roa fell in love with her here. Her long hair… beautiful blue dress that simply demands your love and devotion to the princess of the true ancestors.
In other words, Peak. Kino. Fire. Gorgeous. Other words.
Tumblr media
Archetype earth moves me on a different level. Her design is the best in the game! Well i mean she didnt actually appear in tsukihime itself afaik (or can remember actually) she did appear in Kagetsu Tohya and that was nice.
This is Arcueid at her best looking and i wont accept any different opinion because again only MY opinion matters here!!
On a side note, damn you altrouge for cutting arcueids hair. Damn you a million times i hope nasu NEVER puts you in the story (im lying pls type moon put her in the story)
Tumblr media
This is the airhead that we know and love. This design suits that image of her more then og. While im not a complete fan i find this arc to be terribly cute and my wife (dont correct me on this matter)
The boots and leggings are perfection itself and while i dont like the mini skirt much it still works.
I do wonder tho what is that necklace supposed to mean. DAMN IT NASU TELL US… sorry i know itll be explained in red garden coming out in 2024 in the true arc route.
Overall i give arcueid an arcueid /10 (not biased) and recognize her as peak fiction and the love of my life
Ok this is it for me soon ill post a shiki drip review. If you see this feel free to suggest… stuff idk im new to tumblr. Like or blaze or whatever it is. Honestly, how does this even work anyways?

Inspired by this "stop consuming stuff, engage with it!" A shirt list what I've managed to do in 2 first days of 2023:
Music: after learning that _apparenty_ Justyna Steczkowska (a Polish pop star) wants to give Eurovision another try (she had represented Poland in 1995) I've checked out her competition song that's... Kind of Witcher inspired (firing that she always has been my headcanon Yennefer) but doing its best to be as vague as possible in the references, including spelling it as a witch-er. Also it's a decent pop with witchy edge. HOWEVER that lead me to relisten her Dziewczyna Szamana album and. Groundbreaking. Spectacular. Haunting. Dark and lyrical. One of the best polish music of the 90s. I don't know shit about her music after 2001 (when Grzegorz Ciechowski, her main collaborator and legend of polish music, died) but that one album is iconic.
Books: I'm slowly reading through Empatajzer, a polish dystopia/cyberpunk novel from 2022 that very little of my SF&F friends knew of. There is a case and an intrigue, a titular mcguffin gadget, but it reads more like atmospheric... Idk, contemporary or literary fiction. The reader sinks in daily life and problems of multiple pov characters, the certain doom of the city lurks, nobody really cares about the case (detective included), and I'm not sure why should I. But I do want to see the aforementioned doom.
Videos and movies: a couple of movie reviews and new Princess Weeks video while I was darning clothes
Playing: still BG3. After starting at the end of September I just got to the lower city. I play really slowly even despite staying at home for most of the last month. I never was a gamer, but it seems like spending last 3 years without a gaming computer really did a trick and now I'm just not used to choosing to spend my time this way.

Remember that we're voting on how Iconic they are for ANIMATICS, not for the song itself. In order to make things fair, the tone and mood of the song should not affect how iconic it is (for example, a serious song should not be considered more iconic than a joke song just because it's serious)

Please be cautious and read the title, description and warning cards on the animatic videos if you decide to watch them. If you've got specific triggers I'd recommend even more caution when watching animatics of fandoms you don't know, since sometimes canon-typical themes don't get warnings.

We need to talk about X-Men '97!
October 31st, 1992, saw the release of the iconic X-Men animated series. It quickly gained praise and viewership from its audience. For years, it has been regarded as one of the most high-quality animated adaptations.
This year, the X-Men Animated Series finally gains a sequel; X-Men '97. The next chapter in Marvel's Uncanny Mutants is only halfway through its season. Its journey is only just beginning, and it has already gained praise from critics.
Welcome to the House of Milesverse. Today, we will be talking about X-Men '97, and its growing impact. I hope you enjoy the read and remember to (SNIKT) leave a comment or suggestion, bub.
WARNING. THERE WILL BE SPOILERS.
'97's story:
Tumblr media
Unsurprising to anyone, '97 picks up a year after the events of the last episode. With Charles Xavier gone, Cyclops has taken full reins over the team. The X-Men are facing off against new and dangerous challenges.
'97 has a timeless vibe to its story, almost as if you never left. These are still the same characters as they were before. The X-Men's lore and story within the animated continuity have not changed.
Much like its predecessor, '97 also provides some interesting adaptations. For an example, look no further than Madelyne Pryor, the clone of Jean Grey. In just one episode, the series condensed the events of her story.
Another good example is their destruction of Genosha. Watching it play out on the screen was such a shocker. Its destruction was carried out by Cassandra Nova in the comics. Interestingly enough, she's completely absent from the series, with this being a conspiracy done by Bolivar Trask.
The X-Men have been missed.
Tumblr media
Dear X-Men, we have missed you.
X-Men's animated series is in line with other serious, action-heavy stories from that time. Their story focuses on the message of hate, and the real-world issues it can relate to. The persecution that mutants feel has often been used to represent various minority groups across history.
In addition, the original series combined that with beautifully made animation. The action scenes have been well-remembered by fans for years. The animated series has become such a beloved part of the animated media circle within comic books. For anyone who's a fan of our merry mutants, they definitely have spent some time with this show.
97 has proven to be a perfect follow-up by many fans. In just two episodes, 97 was able to impress the audience. It's following in the footsteps of its predecessor. X-Men 97's acclaim and interest can only rise, especially thanks to it's renewal.
What's so different?
Tumblr media
These may be the same mutants you have met, but their voices are not. Some of the actors, such as Norm Spencer (the original voice for Cyclops) unfortunately passed away over the years. Others have been recast to play different characters.
Here are what I feel are the most notable additions:
Cyclops is now voiced by Ray Chase, well known for being the voice of numerous characters such as Noctis Lucis Caelum (FF15), Bruno Bucciarati (JoJo's Bizarre Adventure), Tengen Uzui (Demon Slayer), Roy (Fire Emblem), and the Master of Masters (Kingdom Hearts)
Jean Grey (and Madelyne Pryor) is now voiced by Jennifer Hale, well known for being the voice of Commander Shepherd (Mass Effect), Princess Morbucks (Powerpuff Girls), and one of the Hex Girls, Thorn (Scooby-Doo). It's also worth noting that Jennifer Hale reprises the role, as she initially had it during Wolverine and the X-Men.
Gambit is an interesting case, as his prior voice actor, Chris Potter, is now playing Cable. He's instead voiced by A.J. LoCascio, who does voice work for both Prince Lotor (Voltron: Legendary Defender) and Marty McFly (Back To The Future: The Game).
Speaking of? Cable is voiced by Chris Potter now, whose done work as Peter Caine (Kung-Fu: The Legend Continues), and Evan Owen (The Young and The Restless).
Cable's old voice actor was Lawrence Bayne, but he was replaced by Chris Potter. Ironically enough, Lawrence Bayne plays a new character who debuts in the same episode as Cable's birth, The X-Cutioner. Lawrence Bayne is known as the voice of Gill (Street Fighter III: Third Strike) and Raven (Gargoyles).
Lastly? Jubilee's old voice actress, Alyson Court, wanted someone of Asian descent to portray her. That is where Holly Chou comes in, acting as the new voice of Jubilee. She did the voice work for Akame (Like A Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name). It is also worth noting that Alyson Court acted as the voice of an older Jubilee in an episode, named Abscissa.
As you can see, a lot has changed with the voice cast of the X-Men series. Some characters who were voiced by older actors had been replaced. Others, like Cal Dodd (The voice of Wolverine) and Alison-Sealy Smith (The voice of Storm) still reprise their iconic roles.
While much has changed? At the end of the day, these new actors all still portray the spirit of the character. Ray Chase for example makes for a standout, with how closely he sounds to Norm Spencer's Cyclops.
What to look forward to & Conclusion
Tumblr media
X-Men '97 is heating up, and we are already almost at the end. If you haven't checked it out yet, then I recommend it. The series is short, but its episodes all have a distinct impact and role. They not only move the plot forward but also help the characters to grow.
My hope is that Superhero Animation swings back into full gear. I remember as a kid it felt like it was practically already there. From the 90s to the 2000s, you could not miss it. The DC Animated Universe, for example, stands out as one of the best superhero animation projects. An entire generation grew up on those stories, and those adventures.
X-Men shows that its importance and value to people matters. Much like the DCAU, it raised so many children and was their first introduction to the X-Men. It stands out as one of the most iconic superhero action cartoons ever, and frankly? It's earned its title.
I think the future of superhero animation is steadily climbing back up. We have had great animated series, such as Invincible, Moon Girl & Devil Dinosaur, My Adventures with Superman, and now? X-Men '97.
This has been a wonderful episode of House of MilesVerse. I hope you join us for a deep dive into our favorite robots in disguise. I'll be doing a full review of Transformers: Earthspark.
And? If you didn't know it, then now you know. We'll chronicle some adventures of Moon Girl & Devil Dinosaur.

The Little Mermaid Live Action
Tumblr media
I’m so freaking prepared for this movie and it’s not even funny!!!!!!!!!!! I’ve watched the trailer so many times since the full trailer was released.
The original Little Mermaid movie was and is still one of my all time favorite Disney movies. And now just seeing in come to life is amazing. I can already tell you I’m gonna be in tears probably halfway through the movie.
There are probably a million reasons why I’m so excited but I’m only going to talk about my top 3.
Tumblr media
Halle Bailey: She such a beautiful woman and a wonderful singer. I heard her singing only a few times before, but when I really heard her voice was during the Disney World 50th Anniversary and she sang “Can You Feel Love Tonight” and she has such a beautiful singing voice. I also read this article somewhere online about Jodi Benson (the original Ariel) and her opinion about Halle playing Ariel. Jodi Benson has been very supportive of Halle as she plays Ariel and was there when Halle received backlash about her playing Ariel. So, Jodi Benson talked about how it doesn’t matter who you are, what you look, or where your from, it’s about the spirit of the character is what’s important. I 100% agree with her. Halle Bailey is going to do a wonderful job by bring one of the most iconic Disney princesses to life.
Tumblr media
2. The Music and New Songs: Can we just take a moment and talk about Lin-Manuel Miranda?!?! As everyone should know, he wrote the Broadway musicals “In The Heights” and “Hamilton” and has also written music for other Disney movies like “Encanto” and “Moana”. Lin-Manuel is also a big Disney fan and he also named his son after Sebastian in the little mermaid. And now he gets to work with Alan Menken (the original music composer) and he was the one who inspired Lin-Manuel to compose music. He basically gets to work with his hero and that’s amazing!!!! I’ve also read somewhere that Lin-Manuel might be Chef Louis in the movie.
Ok, now the music. We all have to admit that the original soundtrack slaps!!!! They are classics and masterpieces. I can’t wait to listen to it again in the live action. I have a feeling some of the songs might be a tad different from the original, but that doesn’t bother me. The have done the same thing in all the other Disney live action movies and I love those movies.
I’m really excited to hear these new songs in the movie. As I said earlier, Lin-Manuel Miranda got up work with Alan Menken and wrote 4 new songs. Can’t wait to hear them and listen to them like a million times once the soundtrack comes out.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
3. The Actors: Besides Halle Bailey as Ariel, I think they did an amazing job with the cast. I mean, you could have picked better than these actors and actresses to play these roles.
Awkwafina as Scuttle: If you didn’t know who she is, Awkwafina was in “Jumamji: The Next Level” and “Chang-Shi and the Legend of the Ten Rings”. She is a really funny actress and always makes me laugh. I think she will make a great Scuttle.
Daveed Diggs as Sebastian: I think everyone had a feeling that he would play Sebastian before the trailer even came out. He was in “Hamilton” with Lin-Manuel Miranda and also rapped a whole bunch in the musical. I read somewhere that he might rap in the movie and that makes me happy. He honestly fits the role of Sebastian perfectly.
Melissa McCarthy as Ursula: Just like Awkwafina, Melissa McCarthy also makes me laugh as well. She was in the movie “Life of the Party” and Netflix “Thunder Force”. I’m excited to see her bring out her inner diva while playing Ursula.
Jonah Hauer-King as Prince Eric: First of all, he is extremely cute and hot. When I first saw him I was like blushing like crazy. Also, he was in “A Dog’s Way Home” and the tv show “World On Fire”. I’m excited to see him play Prince Eric. Another thing to point out is that Prince Eric was my Disney Prince crush when I was little and that crush it starting up again.
Tumblr media
Those are my top 3 reasons why I am excited about the Live Action Little Mermaid. I won’t be able to wait any longer as it approaches theaters.

Arise in Perfect Light
Among the souls born of the First Flame is the soul taken by Gwyn. 太陽の光の王グウィン is his title as given in the Dark Souls introduction: Gwyn, Lord of Sunlight. 太陽 taiyō, the sun, is etymologically linked to 陰陽, the dualistic cosmic forces known in English as yin and yang. Specifically 陽 yō is the bright, masculine, positive association of yang.  
Sunlight seen in this way symbolizes heavenly perfection. Places connected to light are marvels of beauty. Anor Londo is no exception, with its classically beautiful white stone, carved surface decorations on nearly every structure, and mechanisms still working despite a lengthy period of neglect. To walk through Anor Londo is to be invited to marvel at what it could have been during its height.
Even Gwyn’s children are not immune, but rather are expected to hold to the impossible standard the Lord of Sunlight sets. One was banished and shunned in retaliation for an unrecorded transgression: Lord Gwyn's firstborn was a god of war, but his foolishness led to a loss of the annals, and rescinding of his deific status. Today, even his name is not known.
Another, kept in hiding for the accident of his* birth:
Gwyndolin, all too aware of his repulsive, frail appearance, created the illusion of a sister Gwynevere, who helps him guard over Anor Londo. An unmasking of these deities would be tantamount to blasphemy.
For one, it’s a matter of behavior; for another, appearance and inclinations that do not match the expectations of the surrounding society. Gwynevere, middle child, seems to hold a favored position - her items describe her as a beloved icon of bounty and comfort.
The miracles of Gwynevere, the princess cherished by all, grant their blessing to a great many warriors.
Gwyn himself is more of a cipher. It’s indistinct in both English and Japanese whether he was called the god of the sun before taking up his Lord Soul. His statues depict him with both physical strength and hale age, signs of both power and wisdom. Indeed, his generous actions in dividing the might of the “ultimate soul” among his children and his people reflect a great spirit. 
Lord Gwyn, bearer of the ultimate soul, divided that power among his clan before linking the flame. 
…Gwyn wielded the bolts of the sun, but before linking the fire, divided that power amongst his children, and set off with only this greatsword as his companion.
Despite his fears, his failures, and the horrific effect of his curse on the entire land, Gwyn is presented over and over again as the mythical ideal of a good king. He's held up as worthy of emulation while the Chosen Undead strives to succeed the Lord of Sunlight.
That idealized presence is shattered by his final appearance. Even Gwyn is unable to live up to the standard he set. It is part and parcel of his tragedy that neither a soul of perfect light, nor a legend larger than even a god’s life, can protect him from the curse he invoked.
*I’ll be using masculine pronouns for Gwyndolin. This is a headcanon, and I won’t judge you for yours.

Top 10 Female Characters
Thanks for tagging @solana-ceae was free today for a bit so you caught me at a nice time and it's pretty interesting and also so painful to keep it to 10, because i have probably 10 for each type media i read or watch lol. These are in no particular order and might come back someday to elaborate on some of these choices
if anyone wants to do it consider yourseves tagged
1. Elizabeth Bennett from Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen
Elizabeth Bennett, is a character so beloved to me, that even after almost a decade of having read the novel, P&P remains one of my most favourite novels of all time. It was my first romance novel ever and also was my introduction to the works of Jane Austen and romance novels in general. It's also the reason i have such a fondness for regency era romance novels. I love all of her iterations in the myriad of iterations of Pride and Prejudice adaptations we've seen over the years, though i will confess my favourites are the from book (ofc), the 1995 bbc mini series (the better adaptation of P&P novel), the 2005 movie and from the web series, the Lizzie Bennett diaries, a really beautiful awesome web series that is fully available on youtube and i think is a must watch for any fans of P&P.
Elizabeth is such a beautiful vivacious woman, who was courageous, fearless enough to not settle for anything but what she wanted, and a little prideful and she is a wonderful example of how one can be unfairly prejudiced against someone because of an erroneous first impression and also not someone behaving towards you like you expected. And i loved it as a kid, still do almost a decade later, but in a lot different way than i did as a kid.
2. Hermione Granger from the Harry Potter series
As much as jkr's comments and my growing age seeing the pitfalls of the harry potter series made me like the actual series a lot less, but Hermione Granger still reigns supreme as my favourite character from the series (followed by Draco Malfoy, Harry Potter and the book version of Ginny Weasley, yes the book version specifically).
Hermione Granger is and will remain one of my biggest inspirations in life. She was the first character i saw that was so like me when i read it as a kid, and she made me feel ok being one of the smart girls. She's smart as heck, empathetic to the plights of others, believes in justice even when she gets made fun of for it, and totally vicious when crossed. Like it wasn't really shown in the movies, but book Hermione was low key unhinged when she was crossed and i love that for her. She's not perfect, and i love that about her.
I really wish we had her perspective on the shenanigans of the series because it would be so fascinating honestly. And honestly if i had to criticize (one) thing about her was her decision to get together with Ron at the end. It was plain and boring and for those who like her with him great for you, i don't.
3. Arya Stark from Game of Thrones/A Song of Ice and Fire series
She's so persevering and so determined to attain her goals, i love that for her. She's gone through a lot in her tiny life, but she's never let it beat her down ever, she always stands back up and takes names.
I hated what they did to her character in the last 2 seasons of the show (actually i point blank absolutely detest the last season of Game of thrones period so yeah) but before that i loved what she was doing, and everything.
"What do you say to the god of death? Not Today"
100/10 line. Absolute banger. Very quotable. Very inspiring. Fight me if you think otherwise
4. Fa Mulan, Mulan disney movies
An absolute icon, childhood and adult inspiration to live as i want and to have the strength to do what's right and being yourself no matter what.
Also the 1998 movie has some of my favourite movie songs EVER.
Also Bisexual legend Shang ftw
5. Annalise and Erika, The Princess and the Pauper
Yes some of my favourite characters are from a barbie movie, what about it?
Love them both, 100/10 top barbie movie (along with The 12 Dancing princesses) both provided so many lessons to young me and even now are a source of comfort. Also The Princess and the Pauper has one of the best barbie movie songs, the best villian songs and i have each and every song from this movie memorised.
6. Geet from Jab We Met
She's such a comfort character now, and honestly it's hard for me to explain why i love geet so much in anything less than what is an essay lmao.
Jab We Met is honestly one of bollywood's best rom coms ever. Such a feel good story, a banger soundtrack album and the absolute sparkling chemistry between Shahid and Kareena.
She's such a bright, bubbly, vivacious character, full of life and enthusiasm you can help but be charmed by her and her iconic line "Main apni favourite hun (I am my own favourite)" is such a lovely self love line. Even when things in her life didn't work out the way she wanted it to, she soldiered on, and made the best of her situation. Her romance with aditya is so nice and so balanced man i absolutely love jab we met.
If you haven't watched Jab We Met, this is a sign that you should!! I THINK it's one of those movies even those who don't watch bollywood will enjoy.
7. Kaori Makimura from City Hunter manga and anime
She's also another comfort character whom i relate to and looking back, was also one of my first female crushes in any media lol.
She's so unapologetic to be herself, is sometimes insecure about stuff, some of which that i highly relate to, as a woman who was never into the overtly cutesy femme get up ever since i was a kid. She also grows so much as the series progresses and her partnership with Ryo is so complex and yet so simple at the same time. I love how she appreciates Ryo, the very flawed man he is, knowing he's deeply flawed but loving him anyways. And actually it's manga english translation took SO FUCKING LONG to finish istg it was a slow burn from hell. And even though the romance wasn't shown as much, the love and respect Ryo and Kaori had for each other is one of my favourite things in media.
8. Elle Woods from Legally Blonde
She's such a beautiful character who shows that it's fine to be your feminine self even if the environment around you doesn't like that. Legally Blonde is one of my comfort movies and Elle Woods is absolutely the major reason for it.
She's confident in herself and her feminity, a go getter, really intelligent and also still being kind and empathetic towards others. I really think if I'd seen this movie (and the show suits) when i was younger, there was a high chance i would've been a lawyer instead of a doctor that i am right now lmao. She's such an inspiration.
"What? like it's hard?" Absolutely banger line. This is poetic cinema at its peak.
9. Aria Roscente from The Villianess Turns the Hourglass
One of my favourites in the villianess isekai genre of manhwa. A trailblazer, an icon, an absolute legend and a trendsetter.
Aria is such a strong woman. She's also highly intelligent, but also willing to work hard for her goals. While the plot may seem contrived to give her all the things going right, she also never fails to take advantage of all the opportunities that she sees and i love her for it. (The actual villian in this manhwa is such an icon, many wish to be mielle, but you truly can't be mielle)
Aria is my favourite even if she also does a lot of gaslight, gatekeep, girlboss and she will do it in STYLE and pizazz.
10. Hashimoto from Kieta Hatsukoi
She's the best girl, and honestly she's one of the best parts of Kieta Hatsukoi . She so sweet and encouraging of aoki and she's so cute, absolutely love her.
Honorable mentions:
- Tara Elias/Yeonwoo from I'll Save this Damned Family (manhwa)
- Florentia Lombardi from I Shall Master this Family (manhwa)
- Ink from Bad Buddy (thai series)
- Kate Beckett from Castle (series)
- Fujisaki from Cherry Magic (manga and japanese Live action)
- Kim Yu-Na Semantic Error (more in the korean live action adaptation, but also in the manhwa)
- Miranda Priestly from The Devil Wears Prada (movie)
- Donna Sheridan from Mamma Mia 2008 (movie, acted by Meryl Streep)
- Cersei Lannister from Game of Thrones/A Song of Ice and Fire series
- Daenyrys Targaryen from Game of Thrones/A Song of Ice and Fire series
- Anne Elliot from Persuasion by Jane Austen

9 Characters Tag
Tagged by @synobun whom i dearly hope i haven't offended with my quentin coldwater takes 🥲
My list won't be as compact because ✨️mobile✨️ and it took me a bit to untangle "character i like" from "character i associate myself with" so in no particular order:
Juno Steel (The Psnumbra Podcast)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Art by @acadieum and @hemaris respectively (two of my fave penumbra artists)
-baby's first nonbinary character
-grumpy martian private eye with so much baggage you can see it from the other end of the solar system
-he's a snarky bitch and i love him so much
-i should not have imprinted on him bc he's a terrible role model
-he's my current tumblr icon and has been since like. 2019 i think. Time flies when everything is on fire
Feyre Archeron (A Court of Thorns and Roses)
Tumblr media
-one of my comfort reads
-the most i have vibed with a depiction of depression (and the ensuing crawl back toward the light)
-i don't want to say "she's just like me fr!" but i do feel a certain degree of kinship toward her and her character arc
Mollymauk Tealeaf (Critical Role Campaign 2)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
-i want his gender
-tarot cards
-enthusiasm for tacky extravagance and general hedonism
-snarky asshole
Alanna of Trebond (Song of the Lioness)
Tumblr media
-baby's first lady knight
-irrevocably rewired my brain in middle school
-i aspire to this level of spite and stubbornness
Keyleth of the Air Ashari (Critical Role Campaign 1)
Tumblr media
-i relate very hard to her awkwardness, general good nature, and desire to keep the peace. She is powerful and insecure and earnest and i think she desperately needs a hug
-she's probably the closest on this list to me irl
Orym of the Air Ashari (Critical Role Campaign 3)
Tumblr media
-there is something in the air (ashari) that makes these people relatable to me
-with orym i think its the endless sense of responsibility and the knowledge that you're not the main character, combined with the painstaking desire to do unquestionable good even when its not really possible
-also, depending on the art, gender
Kaladin Stormblessed (The Stormlight Archive)
Tumblr media
-more responsibility, more stubbornness, more depression (guys i think i might have some problems)
-somewhat widely (afaik) headcanoned to be asexual which is always fun for me
-if i ever get a tattoo there's a high likelihood that it'll be the First Ideal
Link (Legend of Zelda)
Tumblr media
-i want his gender also
-thats probably all there is here, idk that he has a lot of personality (probably on purpose) but legend of zelda" twilight princess is one of the like. Five video games I've gotten super into in my life
(Hang on i have more but I'm out of pictures)

𝓓𝓸 𝔂𝓸𝓾 𝓫𝓮𝓵𝓲𝓮𝓿𝓮 𝓲𝓷 𝓼𝓸𝓾𝓵 𝓶𝓪𝓽𝓮𝓼? (Do you believe in soul mates?)
𝐁𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐠𝐞𝐫 ★ 𝘗𝘰𝘴𝘵: 𝘐 𝐃𝐚𝐭𝐞: 2/1/2024 2024-1-2 2024-2-1 February 1st 2024
𝚃𝚘𝚙𝚒𝚌: 𝓓𝓸 𝔂𝓸𝓾 𝓫𝓮𝓵𝓲𝓮𝓿𝓮 𝓲𝓷 𝓼𝓸𝓾𝓵 𝓶𝓪𝓽𝓮𝓼? (Do you believe in soul mates?)
With February starting and Valentines day just around the corner what better way to start a new blog post with a world wide known holiday.
When you think of soulmates a lot can come to mind. . . Two lost lovers, opposites that are attracted to each other but for what reasons? It can mean many things. But one thing I hope we can agree on is that love is wonderful yet hurtful.
Do you think you have found you other half? Or singles are you looking forward to finding your boo thang? Perhaps you like just being with yourself whatever the case maybe, we all want love and we all deserver it in any positive way.
I know for me I would love to have another person that I can bother make funny face and just deeply enjoy each other in beautiful ways.
Do you believe there is really someone out there for everyone? Or maybe the overwhelming of the human population makes it seem impossible? Though the second question may seem a bit unorthodox, people may seem or feel as if even if there are people around they will always feel alone or never to be in a committed relationship.
With the topic of relationships what do you think about opposite attracts? Ying & Yang, Water & Fire? Some may feel or believe that total opposite are the best or at least seem to be the ideal way of maintaining a relationship.
Do you agree with that?
Finding your soulmate seems like it only happens in fairy tales, how Cinderella found her princess charming at the ball, or that just by luck Snow-white stumble upon a nice little cottage in the woods.
But what if you could find that one and only prince/ss charming?
Having a deep understand in your partner make it unreal, you finally have the love of your life by your side, maybe till death do us part, or just having a common little pitter patter connection that ties that two people together much stronger.
Being with someone you love you are constantly learning new things weather you have been together for 5 months or 50 years, you are always finding something new in your journey. But having to share it with someone you feel a deep attachment to make its all worth wild in the end.
Even if it may seem a bit unexplainable you can't denied that they are your better half. You both share so many things in common yet share countless of differences as well, which keeps each party in for the long haul.
Here are some people that we may all know who have found there lovely soulmate.
1. Elton John - Know for his catchy tunes and wild looking outfits he has fell deeply in love with his soulmate David Furnish when he was 47-years-old.
2. Harrison Ford - Thought the dark side doesn't seem like a comfort he couldn't contain his powers falling head over heels with Calista Flockhart.
3. Chrissy Teigen and John Legend - Let us not forget this iconic couple known for there beauty and soulful tunes.
Though things may seem rainbows and peaches with cream, things happens, which is normal unexpected situation may occur that can drive two people apart. We all wish for the perfect partner to look or sound a certain way, but thought we have our personal preferences which is not a bad thing. We may not get what we want, but we definitely get what we need and that is someone who is imperfect to others eyes but in yours they are just who you've been waiting for.
But as in the songs say "Only fools rush in." Take your time don't rush into something you may not be prepare for. You will go through lots of bumps in the road into finding what you truly deserve but that doesn't mean you can't be happy with what you have.
As time goes on and one thing I can relate is when you least expect it that is when it happens. So don't wait let the flow take you on its own.
For all the skeptics out there I know many of you may thing the soulmates aren't a real thing like it's a myth no one will ever find there soulmate it's a joke no such thing.
For those who may feel this it is very common and normal, but the realty is for those who believe in it or don't. There will be a lot of misconception's around soulmate such as. . .
We confuse passion and overwhelming emotion for love. We expect a single person to meet all of our needs. We think of love as a matter of chance, not of choice.
But thought everyone is entitled to feel how ever they may about the concept of soulmates. Many can say that they feel happy and are deeply in love with there other half, weather they believe they are soulmates or not.
Just remembers with every relationships keep these important keys in mind: Commination Loyalty Boundaries Understanding
Having all these can make any relationship work. Just have the shoulder or ear, or a yummy snack. Share a movie or a nice picnic. Spending time with your significant other in a positive way can make anything good.
Have you found your Valentine this month? Comment down below I would love to read your feedback.
Thank you for reading my FIRST blog post. For more to come.

ANYA MAKES “LONELY” VISIT TO TARTOSA’S “MOST ROMANTIC SPOT”
Before wrapping up her three-day whirlwind tour in Tartosa, The Crown Princess managed to squeeze in a trip to The Terraces for a photo op with Tartosa’s most iconic spot, its lighthouse.
The Terraces is actually part of a complex of castle ruins. Simtallianni Castle was once an impressive fortress built on a cliff. However, after hundreds of years, multiple wars, and at least two massive earthquakes, what remains today is its balcony that offers majestic views of the coast, and of course, the lighthouse.
Tumblr media
(Royal Throwback: Anya’s grandpa and grandma also had their photos taken on the balcony.) 
The Terraces is also dubbed one of Tartosa’s most romantic spots, and is often the site of proposals and wedding photo shoots. Its “romantic” image is apparently due to a local legend. It’s said that a long time ago, the King’s daughter fell in love with a lowly soldier. The soldier asked for the King’s permission to marry the princess multiple times, but to no avail. Annoyed by the incessant pleas of the soldier, the King issued him a challenge: find a way to light the night sky and save the passing ships from destruction. If he succeeds, he will allow her to marry the Princess. Determined to marry his true love, every day, the soldier gathered rocks along the shore and for many months, he slowly built a tower on the cliff. Once built, he lit a massive fire atop the tower which burned so bright, its light could be seen for miles, signalling sailors and helping them navigate the coast safely. Impressed, the King finally allowed the soldier to marry the Princess, and they lived happily ever after. The current lighthouse is said to be standing on the very spot where the soldier built a tower of stones for his Princess. 
Perhaps swayed by the lovely tale, couples from all over visit the castle ruins to catch a better look at the lighthouse, perhaps hoping that their love will persevere much like that of the soldier and the princess. Similarly, single folks looking for love also make pilgrimages to the area, asking fate to help them find their soulmate.
The Crown Princess is not the first Brindleton royal to visit the tourist spot. Decades earlier, during their official trip to Tartosa, King Leopold and Queen Ophelia stood on the very same balcony and had their picture taken. 
Tumblr media
(Above: Looking ‘lonely’? For her trip to The Terraces, Anya looked beautiful in a belted white dress with black bows and floral embroidery.)
Although the photos of Crown Princess Anya are quite lovely, some couldn’t help but note that Her Royal Highness seemed “lonely” in them. 
Does she? It’s been a while since the Crown Princess was in a relationship, so perhaps that’s the case, but then again, maybe the woman is alone but not lonely. One can be alone and happy at the same time, you know? 
But, hey, maybe the ruins and the lighthouse will sprinkle some of its magic on Anya, and she’ll finally find her one true love! That is, of course, if she’s even looking.
