Words can’t even describe how excited I am for this. My heart is thumping rapidly after just watching this. This gameplay looks incredible. God my heaaaaaart!
The anticipation is real! We are so fucking close!
This was supposed to just be drawing the Taoden siblings hugging a bunch but ah guess that Falin as the tower/princess/dragon post got into my head too much
Will I ever expect Nintendo writing a Ganondorf who's trying to break the curse and end the cycle? No. I simply think their faithful adherence to the nature of fairytales about the knight rising up to face evil and save the princess is simply that strong. It's a classic (in the most literal sense cite Perseus and Andromeda). It's why I don't believe in a playable Zelda until I see it with my own eyes.
While the earnest nature of providing interesting spins on this millennia old formula is rather endearing, I would welcome earnest breaks in turn as well. Yet until I see it, I simply won't be holding my breath for when it comes.

So I was strolling through your page last night and saw your music ask… I know it’s been a while since you’ve done this so I’m gonna ask for #10
10. What’s a song you love that might surprise some people?
Hope you’re having a great week!
Happy Friday Eve! My week has been…interesting. It’s been fine. Just fine. *withers away*
For the music asks:
10. What’s a song you love that might surprise some people?
Free Fall by Slot Machine aka the KinnPorsche opening. I feel like I’ve made my thoughts on the show very clear so it might surprise people that I think this song is a banger. I’m actually upset that the show doesn’t match the song. But at least if nothing else the theme song was good.
But I just finished the crisis at hyrule castle quest line (after thorough googling that I wasn't going into the final boss, of course) and went back to the landing where everyone gathered to discuss what to do next.
It was all very solemn and thoughtful, everyone theorising and letting it sink in how incredibly dangerous ganon was, and then purah and riju are like 'omg there was a sixth sage maybe we can find whatever they've left behind maybe it can help us' and then Link IMMEDIATELY speaks up like 'oh yeah about that I've already found her. Yeah she's fine she's going to help us. I've also got the master sword too by the way'.
Everyone was SHOOK. I got praise and amazement from all sides. Purah was like 'ALREADY???!! And you didn't think to TELL ME??' it was great.
Never felt more like canon link in my life. I've got a screenshot of everyone's :O?! face. Going to be riding that high for hours XD.
But it's very impressive that I managed to procrastinate so hard I managed to skip about three major plot lines just by squirrelling my way where I'm not supposed to be purely by accident lmao.
Hey 👋 here I come again after... A year of the last time I asked? (Turns out it was 16 June 2021, and wow that was before I had tumblr and wow isn't that makes me like creeping cryptid in your notes that appear once in a Blue moon)
Anyway
I posted my promised 'twin au' fic sometime ago and I think it now has enough chapters to be readable
It's called in literal translation 'abnormal blood' (דם אבנורמלי) and posted on AO3
Not sure if the link is usable so just tell me if I need to drop this somewhere else
Ah, congrats!!!! I've no idea how long it's been since we've interacted (that never registers for me), so I'll have to take your word for it. And if you're a creeping cryptid, then you're a creeping cryptid in the best sense. *grins* Certainly not creepy, just rarely seen. And apparently disappearing to produce great things. 40 K and counting is quite the accomplishment!
For anyone who reads Hebrew, the fic is here, and it has now been added to this post that has various links to the Danny & Draco Twin AU.
This young man displayed the true prowess of alchemy to all, bringing with him a massive corpus of wisdom that even the Sumeru Akademiya did not possess. "The universe is heaven reversed, and the earth is a dream lost to time. This is dust, the most basic form of complex life."
As if to provide evidence for this claim, Albedo lifted the burnt ash of the flower that once grew atop a Dendro Slime's head. Seconds later, a Cecilia sprouted forth from the ash in his hand. "And this… is new birth." (Albedo: Character Story)
When I've been wrecking my brain over whether or not Genshin draws the correlation between dust and ashes, and I happen to look into Albedo because of his tie (we can... call it that) to alchemy, and even the art of Khemia specifically which is the much more ancient form of it, and there it is. Now excuse me as I go ramble in my tags a little incoherently...
If he but sigh since my loss befell him
Straight to his side I go.

All that love can do. -- The Haunter, Thomas Hardy
And in his eyes he took the nameless dead,
he stored them, so that someday I might know
and love them in his glance- so that I would not
die in horror, as they all had done.
He filled his eyes with them, and yet in vain:
to all my wars, unwilling. I must go. -- yehuda amichai
Come with me, let’s spend a night in the country, my friend, you intimate of heaven’s stars, for winter’s finally over–
you can hear the doves and swallows chattering. We’ll lounge beneath the pomegranate trees, plum trees, apple trees,
everything lovely and leafy. -- Solomon ibn Gabirol
Imagine you’re drowning. Imagine for just a second that you’re able to lift your head above water, see the light, take a gulp of air, and feel your hands touch something, so you grab ahold and cling to it. So, you can imagine all your life you are drowning – and that’s certainly nothing but the truth – then love is what helps you keep your head above water. -- Hermit and Six-Toes, Victor Pelevin
