Meredith Wilson in 1957: *writes a musical where the heroine is a librarian with an attitude/secret romantic who is close with her family but feels alienated by everyone else and thinks of herself as unknowable so instead of putting herself out there she uses her intelligence to lean into the “antisocial bookworm” persona to keep herself from getting hurt but is secretly a little lonely and wishes she had friends but it’s okay because she has her family to take care of and her books and everyone who meets her assumes she’s reticent and calculating but she’s actually just a day dreamer who wants things so badly but she convinces herself those things are unattainable until she meets someone who likes her not in spite of her idiosyncrasies but because of them*

look, i know why the statue they put up of Hawke after defeating the Arishok is just a generic city guardsman with a flaming sword, but also, like......... how much cooler would this statue have been

#my art #marian hawke #i wanted to draw my act 2 outfit for marian since i always draw her in her act 3 clothes #'kirkwall wouldn't put up a statue of a mage holding a staff' yeah but it would look rad wouldn't it #and also i like the cold blooded staff lol #even though in my headcanon she uses a staff with a bladed end so she can cut the arishok's throat <3

So I'm reading the words of Actual Conquistador Bernal Díaz del Castillo, as one does—translated into modern (19th century) English, which ironically makes him a lot more comprehensible than his English contemporaries who I am reading in Early Modern English, god-awful orthography and all.

Anyway, del Castillo comes across like an old Catholic grandpa (which he probably is at the time of his memoirs, thirty years past his days as a soldier). He's very devout, or at least wants to give that appearance, although I find it amusing that the image of the Christian God that he and his compatriots are consistently presenting to the Mexica is Baby Jesus and his Mom. They have a seemingly inexhaustible supply of Virgin statues they keep installing everywhere?!

Cortes ordered the caziques, with the principal men among them and the priest, into his presence, giving them to understand, as well as he could by means of our interpreter, that if they were desirous of becoming our brethren they must give up sacrificing to these idols [...] He then presented them with the image of the Virgin Mary and a cross, which he desired them to put up instead. These would prove a blessing to them at all times, make their seeds grow and preserve their souls from eternal perdition. This and many other things respecting our holy religion, Cortes explained to them in a very excellent manner. 

Repeated descriptions of Cortes and his men kneeling before the Virgin on an alter; really any observer could be forgiven for thinking that they worship a goddess.

#bernal díaz del castillo #i'd call it marian idolatry but i'm not even mad about it #the christian god is genderless and there a long tradition of envisioning them as female or both male and female simultaneously #e.g. the wounds of christ giving birth and looking yonic #although frankly a lot of this feels like swapping out pagan idols for christian ones #the conquistadors come back and are delighted that one of the mary statues is still being cherished on an alter with incense burning #uhh yeah you explained it was the powerful god of your emperor #and not really anything else? #christianity #imperialism #i believe the ballast on spanish galleons was entirely mary statues

hehe found my first writing for astoria 🥰

#iv. tilting pretty sharply bitchward. ( marianning ) #(i'm actually. VERY proud of this.) #(this is from july 24th 2012 and i made her blog the following day) #(genuinely i am so proud of the work i've done on her. i'm not willing to pretend to be modest abt this.) #(i took a character with a handful of notes as to her most basic facts: name! age! husband's name! family status! sister's name!) #(and i reverse engineered this hot mess whomst i love more than anything) #(she proved so radically different than what was made canon a few years later that i never felt any discomfort with calling her mine) #(because she WAS mine. from day one she was mine. and i've built her history w other writing partners over the years) #(but what's here now? it's mine. it's wholly mine. i made her & i shaped her. i'm so proud of her.) #(she made me feel like a person again when i didn't feel that way and hadn't for a long time) #(she made me feel creative again) #(she made me think i could actually do this and you know what?) #(i was right for it) #(honest to god this horrible little beast of a woman is the best thing that's ever happened to me and i made her!) #(also high five @ me this is good fucking writing esp considering that i was 19 and so depressed i didn't know who i was half the time)

the sheer power of the adult Russells in episodes 2 & 3 of The Gilded Age...

both of them said, "I am mean, petty, and spiteful, but also extremely hardworking, especially in service of cruelty, pettiness, or spite against people who INSULT MY FAMILY, and if you try to hurt my spouse or kids or business I will destroy everything I have just to take you fuckers down with me," and EVERY SINGLE TIME one of them does some shit like that the other one goes, "babe that was sooooo sexy"

and then in E3 they did that when the old money families wanted to play legal games to humiliate the Russells + profit off of financially destroying them, but then added in a severe game of Poverty Chicken against people who had never been poor and were terrified of that fate lmao... the Russells said, "So what? I've been broke before! I didn't die! 😂 You think this would be my first time being foreclosed on? We can earn it all back & then spend all our money again," while the rich WASPs up the street freak the fuck out

bonus bc no confirmation yet on George except for "bro, just look at him," but Bertha is confirmed Irish American... so yeah they're new money spicy whites and they're real cutthroat about it while Carrie Coon and Morgan Spector bring all the severe Gomez & Morticia contender level chemistry that you would expect from a couple whose entire dynamic is, "baby, you were so mean when you humiliated our family's professional enemies & rivals (because your rivals are my rivals babe we hate them TOGETHER) in public while making a scene by making it rain big big dollars at the rich people charity event just then... ooh do it again :)"

#must a show be ''good'' ? is it not enough to see a mean & beautiful couple who use their new money status to bully & humiliate snobs... #don't get me wrong: VERY MUCH enjoying the van rhijn/brooks (tbh everybody but marian & fuckin pumpkin lol) #and all the servants ofc julian fellowes loves to give a good upstairs downstairs drama #but something about the russells is HUGELY compelling lol like not even just that they're a hot couple but like #they're ''vulgar'' & business minded & take no prisoners with it & don't pretend not to be and they DELIBERATELY shake the table! #it's fun gdi! #the gilded age

MARIAN STATUE ERECTED IN 1955 RATHER THAN 1955

I went on a walking tour about twenty years ago and the tour guide claimed that Oscar Square and the associated streets was named in honour of Oscar Wilde. However, the reality is that Oscar Square is not named after Oscar Wilde, but rather Oscar, son of

OSCAR SQUARE PARK Even thought this statue was erected in 1955 rather than 1954 I assume that it is a Marian Statue.

However, the reality is that Oscar Square is not named after Oscar Wilde, but rather Oscar, son of Oisín of Na Fianna.…

Basic Information:

Name: Maid Marian Foxwood.

Age: 18.

Place of Birth: Ana-Kainga, Kingdom of Dijeuni.

Current Home: Ana-Kainga, Kingdom of Dijeuni.

Occupation: Heiress/Nanny at Orphanage.

Skeleton Bio:

Marian is the niece of the current king, coming from a very wealthy background

Though she is related to the royalty, she hates anything to do with politics and often avoids that part of her life, instead focusing her time on working at the orphanage- even living within its walls to keep a constant eye on the children.

When asked, she denies her relation to the king, though she does use her memories to tell the children's stories- pretending they're set in a fantasy kingdom.

Face Claim: Emily Carey. The face is negotiable but should remain under 35.

This role is closed.

Credit: Ariel.

OF COURSE

Just leaving this here in case it wasn’t that obvious for someone non-affiliated with the Catholic Church. Aziraphale’s pose is based on the most popular variant of Madonna Immaculata statue from 1830 Marian apparitions in Paris, France. Crowley’s - well, he’s crucified Jesus

From by /youryurigoddess on Twitter, featuring an attached image of Aziraphale and Crowley on elevators doing the poses mentioned.

the crucified hero shot is already a TV Tropes entry so Michael Sheen doing the Mama Mary hands is the most interesting point here
