#marcia overstrand

[septimus-heap]

Tbh I think staying at zeldas cottage together is the funniest possible thing that could've happened to silas+marcia specifically. Silas goes from thinking marcia is cold and unfeeling and insane to being like "oh so she CAN experience joy but only when she's telling us over breakfast all about the latest extremely niche topic she's gotten invested in. And also she's insane"

#sep talks #septimus heap #marcia overstrand #silas heap #like I do love to make them have deep meaningful talks while at zeldas bc I think it's like. The only time that could feasibly happen #but this is more realistic and also funnier #like he still hates her it's just for different reasons now. He has seen her for who she is rather than who he thought she was #and he does not like who she is

Small things I love about the Septimus Heap books:

This is a universe where you can have an actual pet rock. Petroc Trelawney has my whole heart and should also have yours.

At one point, an iguana was mowing the loan

The misadventures of Stanley, the rat having to deal with the Heaps (tm) in every book and his failed marriage and the adoption of his children + his job. He is doing his best, okay ?

Grandpa Benji went into the forest one day and never came back, living his life as a tree int he forest.

Sam. I know he is not little but I love Sam Heap and he deserves to be appreciated (the moments between him and Sep are great)

Medieval world ? Yes totally. Is that a submarine and an elevator ? Yes. Don't worry about it. There is no implications here of this being a post-apocalyptic futuristic world. What are you talking about ?

✨Jenna and Septimus killed a man ✨.

And considering what Sep says to her after and the fact that he was a child soldier without a name until he was 10,it probably wasn't the first time for him

Sleuth, Simon's emotional support tennis ball. It's very busy considering Simon is Simon and would need a lot of emotional support. It is also doing its best and should stop being taken by little brats .

Marcia and her fashion choices (tm). Does she need the pointy purple python shoes ? Nooooo. We wouldn't have her without them though.

The illustrations. They are so good. I love them so much.

You can add more if you want..

ID: a digital drawing of Marcia Overstrand. She is drawn from the shoulders up, wearing a purple shirt with gold trim. She has two dangly earrings, one shaped like a star and one a crescent moon. She is looking to the right and smiling. There is a white border around the image with doodles on it like hearts and stars and swirls. /end ID

Marcia :) also bonus comparison under the cut of where she's less healthy abdjdndjs

ID: another drawing of Marcia, in the same shirt with the same earrings. She is noticeably thinner and looks more tired. The second image is the same as the first one above. /end ID

1st marcia: post dn1 (and several months of zeldas cooking)

The Smuggling of the Princess to the Wizard Tower (Jenna Heap had never had a more exciting birthday).

#always loved that scene where marcia hides jenna under her cloak #<3 #also the way marcia was so rude to silas and had to make a big effort when talking to him n sarah about the danger jenna was #VERSUS how good she is with jenna when they get to the wizard tower etc #and the way marcia interacts w kids in general vs how frustrated she gets with other adults #gives me many feelings ! #Marcia Overstrand #Jenna Heap #Princess Jenna #Septimus Heap #ohhamlet art

Round 2: Match 11 of 32

Why they deserve to be the ultimate wizard according to YOU:

Ged:

Vanquished (so far): Raistlin Majere

"Ged breaks your heart in a good way every book"

"Ged didn't become archmage and then quit to go herd goats to lost a poll bracket"

"Ged is a POC queer protag ... he's arguably one of the most powerful beings IN Earthsea and he learns wisdom above all else which tempers him"

“The mix of pride and wounds. The gentleness and power. The greatness and the goats. I love my boy so much.”

“He is simply a little wizard guy who goes on little wizard adventures and journeys of self-discovery.”

“This man went to wizard school and beat up his own shadow”

Marcia:

Vanquished (so far): Alther Mella

"every day. EVERY DAY! i think about that paragraph in either darke or fyre that was like 'yeah she was a really weird kid"

"vote marcia she's the coolest bitch everrrrrr"

“It's her literal title: She is The ExtraOrdinary Wizard. Other qualifying factors: She wears purple python skin boots. She's also impatient and scares people with her presence easily (without meaning to). A true HIBC.”

“She's the ExtraOrdinary Wizard in the book series, which means she's the Wizard In Charge!  Trains the main character, fantastic at magic, has purple crocodile boots, I went as her once for halloween. 10/10 excellent wizard“

my House obsession has merged with my ever lingering septimus heap obsession, and all I can think about is how we need Lisa Edelstein (Cuddy) to play Marcia Overstrand if there was ever to be a live action Septimus Heap.

Like she would walk Silas like a dog. Also I would love to see Michael Sheen as Alther. If there's anyone who can pull of a well meaning ghost that can be a bit of a wreck, it's him.

I'm sure I've said this before but truly I think when marcia dies she's either going to be like 126 and dies in her sleep OR she dies at age 52 from like. Breaking a heel and falling down a flight of stairs or something. There's no in between she either dies young and dramatically or just somehow doesn't die for ages

#sep talks #septimus heap #marcia overstrand #alternatively I go with isadoras marcia-as-magyk hc/au in which she never dies

[friedwizardwhispers]

Marcia being the first adult to ask about Septimus's well being when he was boy 412 is something that can be so personal actually.

#septimus heap #marcia overstrand #boy 412

The main breakfast food mentioned at the castle is porridge with occasional mentions of meat like sausages but never really toast. The only person who mentions toast is Aunt Zelda. Right so imagine you’ve only ever eaten either porridge or meat (or porridge and meat?) for breakfast and some lady presents you with a freshly baked (we know she bakes her own bread angie doesn’t need to say) crusty white bread that’s been toasted and smothered in butter. That would be life changing. Nothing would ever be the same

EXCITING NEW TOURNAMENT.

I collect every single named character in septimus heap and make them fight and u all get to participate <3 just submit any character as long as they have a name. I don't care if they're a main character or not. If they have a name then put them in the poll <3

There's going to be ideally a bracket for every book + one at the end where all the winners get to fight. That's why I need u to say what book they were introduced in in the form it's so I can sort them like that

Propaganda not only allowed but HIGHLY encouraged this is the dumbest idea I've ever had I need smth to make it even sillier

Rules r in the form but also extra rule. U have to be super niceys to me or I'll cry <3

#septimus heap #idk what else to tag this tbh #uh #marcia overstrand #alther mella #silas heap #simon heap #<-just tagging random characters tbh #jenna heap #there will one day be a google doc u can look at to see if ur character has already been submitted #but u could always submit again for extra propaganda #<-DON'T submit them like a bunch of times in a row tho

ID: a redraw of a screenshot from the dungeon meshi anime, drawn as marcia and cerys instead of marcille and falin. They are in a bath house, shown from the chest up and neither of them are wearing anything (but anything nsfw is covered by camera angles). Cerys has her back turned to the viewer, leaning over Marcia, who looks at her, startled and blushing. They are holding hands. Marcia has several scars on her fingers and one on her face, and her hair is in braids. They are both dripping water. /end ID

GAY PEOPLE!!!!

Yes I did trace this what of it. Its for fun I'm not making money off this or anything abdudbdj. And I didn't want to draw All That from scratch <3. The hair is mostly mine for cerys and entirely mine for marcia (I used some of @lesbianmarciaoverstrand's apprentice marcia art as refs <3)

ID: the same image but marcias hair is a very dark purple. /end ID

#art #septimus heap #marcia overstrand #cerys banda #??? #my art #<-only sort of. Bc well. The tracing #I would've done marcias hair how I normally do it but a) I wanted to try this for a while and b) I think marcilles hair being super long #is important. Bc it looks so cool in the one panel from the manga I want to Properly redraw as marcia #so I want marcia to have long hair that can mimic the shape of marcilles #ANYWAY!! this was an experiment but I think it's fun. So
