#like a dandelion seed

[handsomejack-ingoff]

so in episode 1 of tales. where did vaughn and rhys get the handcuffs. huh.

did they just. have them??? did vaughn just come out of his room like "ok rhys im ready for pandora!!" and he randomly handcuffed the briefcase to his wrist and rhys was like "???? where did you get thos" and vaughn interrupts like "OK RHYS IT SEEMS LIKE WE'RE READY!!! LETS GO DOWN TO PANDORA TO MAKE THAT DEAL. NO TIME TO KEEP TALKING ABOUT THIS"

or like. did rhys have them. did he see vaughn holding the briefcase of money and go "hm. he needs a bit if freakiness to his fit" and just. put vaughn in cuffs??

how did they decide who would be cuffed to the money. because rhys seems like. the infinitely better option here

i mean. come on. rhys has a super strong robot arm and also isnt so small and lightweight that he'd blow away in a breeze, like vaughn would

#sorry im replaying tftbl. ur gonna have to put up with me blogging about my thoughts #vaughn the money man #borderlands #tales from the borderlands #rhys strongfork #rhys the company man #gayperion #not explicitly but its intended for yall #btw i think realistically yvette told them off like #“do you plan on just letting whoever gets their hands on the money take it?” and vaughn and rhys were #so. stupid. supid enough to think that handcuffing the briefcase to vaughns wrist was a good idea #“yeah bro ive got it!! ill take care of it dw ^-^” meanwhile vaughn gets carried away on pandoras gusts of wind #like a dandelion seed

diluc + a gentle touch feeling like violence after he returns to mond

#bee chats #i have. so many thoughts about him. #how he's rarely been touched with care since leaving #how it feels like being flayed open when you brush a dandelion seed from his cheek or your pinky nudges against his #how it feels like too much and yet not enough #the way he questions whether or not he deserves it because he still wakes up and sees blood on his hands

fengxinists hear me out for a second: Feng Xin week with prompts like “family” and “training” and “war” that give lots of opportunities to expand on his tragically ignored backstory

mfw the lore behind wine (particularly dandelion wine) in genshin only serves to further reinforce venti's connection to memory and time and him being an alcoholic isn't just a funny character trait but also ties into his themes 🤯

#You're familiar with Dandelion Wine right? Well the people of Mondstadt believe that the wind can bring back the soul and also preserve #memories. Dandelion Seeds are like living gemstones formed from the first wisps of wind in the year. People add them to the mix at the last #second as a way of capturing the wind in the very moment that the barrel is sealed. The memory of that moment is then stored in the wine of #all time. - uhh that one mond event with razor #me when i'm a silly lil guy who keeps my friend in a perpetual state of undeath by wearing his skin and microdosing on my memories of him #venti #x #lore

ok so red geraniums aside the perfect flower to represent vash is the dandelion. like yes its yellow and spikey just like his hair, but it's also an incredibly versatile flower able to survive in unlikely and uninviting environments.

and also its about how its perceived by many people as a weed, an unwanted nuisance, despite not really causing that much damage or trouble to plants around it and infact helping other plants grow by pulling up nutrients from deeper in the soil.

#grymms spectacular fucking posts #trigun #vash the stampede #trigun stampede #trigun maximum #trigun 98 #something could probably also be said about how when dandelions ''die“/ produce seeds they become a symbol of wishing or something but idk #and also about how many children seem to like dandelions while the people who hate them generally do so only because they dare to go against #their harmful and unreasonable love of lawns #dandelions have always been my favorite flower really and i think they're great

Compiled this lil piece from solar filter I used during the eclipse and plants I grabbed from my friend's parents' yard in Arkansas (they have those cool helicopter seeds we don't have around Florida)! Included Jupiter and Venus symbols on two handheld filters since those planets were very visible during the eclipse, and bits of a cyanotype I did the day before! So all the components are directly related to the eclipse/general area I viewed it from :-)

#my art #i don't actually usually post my actual art here bksndjd but I kinda busted my butt and thought this was a very cool thing I did ! #text #eclipse #solar eclipse #the truth is out there #all of the inorganic materials are solar filter or cyanotype #(aside from glue lol) #the silver is the side that faces the sun - the black is what you look through! #and all the organic materials were from near eclipse path #i like the little red leaves which I grabbed bc I thought they looked cool but they ended up being neat as prominences too lol #anyway. inspo'd by exquisite creatures exhibit in crystal bridges AR bc the guy there uses bugs n plants n such in his art #also fuck leaves for use in art those little bitches fr . very annoying ! #probs my fault in part bc I'm too impatient to book dry them tho... I rly wanted to get this Out Of Me y'know? #i put that dandelion together by hand lmaooo #like reattached the seeds to the head . so I could glue em on somewhat and keep em kinda more in place #than how they were attached naturally

the thing about it is- and i cannot stress it enough- no new information about the game itself was released today. we have exactly as much content to work with as we did 24 hours ago, yet somehow the hype alone of the re-confirmation that the game is in fact still alive has kicked us back into kh mode and reawakened our brains at full strength

LOL LITERALLY

the hold this series has over everyone is insane!!! Just a teaser image barely hinting at anything uploaded after so long has the fandom like this; it hilarious and truly inspiring! Like we were all just hibernating 😆

Haha this whole situation has me reminiscing through similar times in the past where we just get excited for trailer release dates (which I think I would crumble with scheduling that on my calendar if that were to happen again soon) and theorizing to the smallest details of the logos and what not

#*destati plays loudly in the bg for the kh fandom* #I love how passionate and enthusiastic everyone is it’s so infectious!!! #kh #khml #asks #I think I was still sorta in hiatus when the first round of khml news dropped with the new emblem symbol #which Im still obsessed over how it looks like a dandelion seed and builds off the previous emblem designs we’ve seen before!!! #i wish I had the brain power and energy to theorize more often #happy to see everyone else’s tho!!!

(🌹… a confession.)

"Okay...early last spring, something awful and embarrassing happened to me, but I've decided that it no longer bothers me, so I'm going to talk about it,"

"I won't go into deep detail on the hows or whys, but technically what happened is that this plant body betrayed me and ALL OF MY PETALS FELL OUT, I was essentially bald and I was miserable for a few weeks until I eventually grew new bigger and better petals,"

Flowey: "I handled it so poorly that I didn't want anyone to see me, but to show that I no longer care about the whole thing, I asked Frisk to draw this picture to show you guys, and if anyone has anything bad to say about their art, I will personally dox you,"

Frisk: "No he won't,"

Flowey: "Yes I will,"

Where's that post I saw earlier and forgot to like or reblog. No I don't know what it was about why do you ask.

#floating gently and aimlessly through life like a dandelion seed on a summer breeze.....

I wish you would write Ven (Dandelion Seeds-adjacent) reuniting with Lauriam and Subject X Skuld in the present time. I think it would be kind of heartbreaking, since I feel like they sent him and themselves off in the hopes they would be safe and all of them (Ven like three different times over) just landed in a different tragedy

(For this)

HEY ANON, HOW'D YOU KNOW I'VE BEEN ROTATING THIS IDEA IN MY HEAD FOR FOREVER--

--

            “What if they don’t like me?”

            It felt like such a silly, childish thing to ask, and it didn’t even remotely encompass everything Ven wanted to say.  But at the end of the day, he wasn’t the same kid the two of them had known; that boy had died, somewhere between trapping Darkness inside him and being torn apart, and he had been left to pick up the scattered memories of who he used to be.

            “Then they don’t know what they’re missing,” Aqua informed him.

            “And we can always drop paint on them—ow.”  Terra lifted his hands in a placating manner, warding off getting elbowed again.

            Ven smiled, despite himself, and laughed quietly.  “Thanks, guys.”

            Skuld and Lauriam were…waiting for him.  Just outside the castle doors.  He flexed his fingers and released a shaky breath.  He didn’t know much about what they’d be like, either, he realized—he knew a little about what had happened, from Lea and Isa and Namine and Sora, but he didn’t know what that meant for any of them.  That felt almost as frightening as the thought of rejection.

            Still.  He wasn’t that same terrified kid who didn’t feel qualified to be a Union Leader anymore.  He was almost a Master in his own right.  He’d made it through several wars, apparently, and fought Heartless and Unversed, and braved the afterlife to save his friend.  He could face trying to reconnect with these people a part of him once knew.

            …Probably.

            Before he could talk himself out of it, Ven pushed open the castle doors and strode into the courtyard.

            Two pairs of eyes snapped towards him immediately, quiet conversation cut short.  He’d known what Lauriam would look like, from his vague memories of seeing Marluxia on the battlefield, but it was still jarring to compare to the skinnier, softer-faced boy from his memories.  Skuld—he hadn’t been sure what his image of an older Skuld was, but this felt almost right; too lean, maybe, from travel or from whatever Xehanort had put her through, her expression still a little too guarded, but the clothes weren’t all that different from what she used to wear, patch-marked with trinkets from the worlds she’d visited, hair long and braided, a familiar warmth in her eyes that life hadn’t quite managed to crush out of her.

            Lauriam mouthed something that Ven thought might’ve been his name; he started towards him, then stopped almost as abruptly, hand lifted like he’d wanted to reach out to him but couldn’t.

            Ven swallowed tightly.  Echoes of conversations flitted through his head:

            (“You’ll grow into it.  Just give it time.”)

            (“I love you too, you know.  You’re like my little brother, and I don’t want you to be distressed, either.”)

            (“The rest of us love you, Ven, and that doesn’t hinge on what you do or don’t do.  We care about you.  Okay?”)

            This had been his brother, once; he’d been terrified of how Lauriam might react to him (this wasn’t the first time you took his sibling away), but he suddenly realized that maybe Lauriam had similar fears.  Maybe we’re just all a little broken, and we’ll have to make something new from the pieces.

            Ven flashed Lauriam a tremulous smile and opened his arms for a hug.  “Hey, Lauriam.”

            Lauriam made a pained noise that didn’t sound entirely voluntary and cross the distance, nearly bowling Ven over.  Ven laughed, giddy and relieved.  “No fair; you weren’t supposed to get so much bigger than me.”

            Lauriam laughed, the sound wet, hug so tight Ven could barely breathe.  “You had a lot of catching up to do.”

            “Hey!”

            Lauriam snorted, and then sucked in a deep, shaky breath.  “I missed you.”

            Ven’s eyes stung.  “Missed you, too.”  He wriggled away from Lauriam enough to extend an arm towards Skuld.

            Skuld hesitated, looking almost lost, then shook her head with a soft smile.  “It’s not you,” she promised, apparently catching Ven’s crestfallen look.  “Things just…happened.”

            “That…feels like an understatement,” Ven admitted.

            Skuld crossed the distance to join them; after a hesitant moment she reached out a hand, placing it cautiously against Ven’s cheek.  Something in her expression relaxed, the wariness fading away.  “You grew a lot, too,” she said, voice bittersweet.

            “Not enough, apparently,” Ven grumbled, giving Lauriam a pointed look.

            “That just means that you can make Lauriam reach for things.”

            Lauriam sighed.

            Footsteps came, quiet, from behind them; Skuld shifted, all wariness again, positioning herself just slightly so that she was in front of Ven and Lauriam.  Ven had half a moment to worry before looking to see Terra and Aqua, approaching slowly.  “Don’t worry.  Those are my friends.  Come on, I’ll take you to meet them.”  He paused, and then added, “And then…maybe we can catch up.  Find out what we’ve all been doing since…you know.”

            Lauriam’s expression turned pained; Skuld’s just looked sad.  “It isn’t a nice story, Ven,” Skuld murmured.  With a glance towards Lauriam, she added, “Either of ours.”

            Ven could feel his expression softening.  “I know.  Mine isn’t either, in some ways.  But…I want to know, anyways.”

            Skuld’s expression softened.  “I…don’t think Lauriam’s planning on letting you go anytime soon.”

            Lauriam looked sheepish, but he didn’t deny it.

            Ven laughed, then grabbed Lauriam’s hand and dragged him towards his friends, Skuld keeping pace.  Their relationship might not be the same as it was, maybe—but they could start rebuilding it, and maybe make something new.

What's something your culture considers good luck or a good luck charm? Or something you make wishes on?

#i just find good luck charms and superstitions interesting #the ones i grew up with were like what i assume r typical American good luck charms #like 4 leaf clover. rabbits food. horseshoe facing up like a U to catch luck. finding a penny heads up. tails up would b bad luck #rabbits foot* not food. the only odd one i can think of is finding the fish ear bone of a freshwater drumm #i would make wishes on shooting stars. or the 1st star at night. a coin thrown in a well. #before blowing dandelion seeds. a caught falling leaf. catching a fuzzy aphid. catching a fuzzy thing from the air. a chicken wish bone #that's a lot of things i guess. im probably most superstitious abt jinxing things. i say knock on wood all the time. but that might b a #bit pathological lol. idk charms and wish making r interesting to me #unrelated

Unforseen consequence of owning a massive wizard hat is the fantastic workout it gives your neck and back. It’s so heavy, i feel like an oil tanker when walking around, have to schedule those corner turns a week in advance
