My Tia figured out how to do flannel patterns with nail polish a couple months ago and since then she's been really excited to do my nails in the Ace/Aro Pride colours. :)

:{ Echo's Pokemon Spotlight: Quicksilver }:
Tumblr media
Name: Quicksilver
Species: Salazzle, Heavy Seviper lineage. Her size, color, and distinctive fangs are heavily influenced by her parentage, though in behavior and care requirements she is relatively standard for her species.
Gender: Female
Nature: Bold
Ability: Corrosion
Capture Data: Caught February 13, 2023. Location: Alola; Rt 8. Original Registration ID: [Redacted].
Information: Quicksilver was a wild capture after her bright colors caught the attention of some local trainers, she stood out sorely among the wild population. She's believed to be the result of a trainer's Seviper left to mingle among the wild pokemon of the area. She was captured with another Salazzle (Slowgold) and a similarly unusual Alolan meowth (Arlene). Since capture she's shown a proficiency in battle and an enjoyment of competition, and as such has earned a spot on the professor's usual battle team. However, despite her dual typing, the professor seems to prefer focusing on non-fire moves.

I want to put a credit here for Quicksilver's original design to @updates-from-po-town who made this really neat pair for a friend who passed them onto me, even if I haven't exactly been great at keeping up with these references in a timely manner ahaha. you can see their lovely art here!!

my little sister and I were watching Wandavision (of course) and after I explained that Pietro is actually “Ralph” and fake-married to “Agnes” she was like “I kind of wish they were a real couple. That would be kind of awesome”—so Ralph/Agnes crackshippers, we’ve got another one xD

//tw for mentions of war, death, breakdowns, fighting, hurt, and Buckle up Buttercup ITS TIME FOR THE FIRST FANFICTION I'LL EVER BE POSTING
Now before reading I'd like to point out the possibility of the characters here being somewhat out-of-character since each bit was written in 10 minutes (IT WAS FOR A SPRINTING BOT DISCORD SESSION OKAY- But I did clean it up a bit by redoing some of the bits) and then to add on I used a wheel to pick what I should do
And the wheel chose "do a story where a side character actually shows emotion for once" so uh would explain why Spencer might might be like half out-of-character
To add on this is basically my take on the whole.. "Irl History affects the plot" thing (also being set in my Candle-lit Railways AU which also explains the humanoid descriptions) so yup, PREPARE FOR WAR-
-----------------
As the candle dimmed down it's light, The shed doors would close with silence filling the air, simply another night to rest then waste all that energy again.
Spencer would let out an exhausted sigh. He knew how devastated Mallard would be once he heard the news  about Gadwall, the more innocent one among the Gresleys, always naive yet a charming one in his own unique way.
Unique enough to get Great Northern, of all people, to soften up to him. It still surprised Spencer til' this moment that he got North to become soft. Though that uniqueness left a gap in reality, a horrible reality, that's now began a world war.
Which was the same exact thing that led to Gadwall's demise. The demise of the only light that was left in darkness. They killed an innocent engine just because of humanity's selfishness.
They killed his brother. His youngest brother.
The Shed doors would open, snapping Spencer out of his thoughts as he looked to who was near the doors. He would see it to be Sir Nigel, in his humanoid form.
He would sigh in relief, maybe Sir Nigel could keep him from his night terrors for just this night. Just for an hour at least.
Sir Nigel would look up to Spencer, sitting on a stool next to him. Simply looking out the shed into the moonlight knowing that Spencer needed some company.
"I miss him too."
Sir Nigel suddenly said in a mournful voice.
"I-.. I miss him more than.. More than anything, honestly."
Spencer replied back, depressingly.
As the two sat there, simply tranquil together, they would mourn in silence. For their brother. Because nothing was louder than their younger brother's joyous aura.
That aura was gone for good.
———
He was in the rain, running as fast as he could towards Top sheds. He knew his crew would say something about Gadwall's death. He can't be held back by his engine form, not now. Even if he wasn't steaming he was able to shift into his humanoid form.
Spencer’s fire kept burning and burning inside his chest as he ran through the rain. Running like someone who was rollerblading, technically he was skating with his wheels.
But he kept running and running. He didn't care if his crew would scold him, he wouldn't care if Sir Nigel Gresley himself would come to scold him after. He needed to save what was left of Mallard's innocence, what was left of his hope.
With World War II currently escalating into more madness, Spencer had to hold onto each bit of hope he could keep or at least save. He had to hold onto Mallard's innocence more, even just for a week or a day he had to hold onto it a little bit longer.
As he got to top sheds, he already felt the atmosphere shift as he caught a glimpse of Quicksilver and Mercury's mournful faces. Silverfox was in Polly's arms, sobbing, grieving as the news sunk into her mind. He knew that his crew told them as well, he already knew by the shift, by the faces.
He would bust open the doors to Mallard's shed, his black silver-lined coat falling to the floor, but he wouldn't bother to pick it up as he saw Mallard's fallen face. Spencer saw the tears slip down Mallard's cheeks more quicker than water pouring into an engine's boiler. It was too late.
Mallard had the news sunken into his mind and Spencer knew that well enough to not take one more step near Mallard, afraid that he'd lose his mind more than he looks like he already has.
He simply stood there, letting Mallard grieve as his crew comforted the glossed-black locomotive as he grieved for his younger sibling. Spencer would take off his hat, in respect of Mallard currently breaking down.
Spencer didn't even need to look back to know that the others were watching Mallard slowly breakdown, he already could vision how Merlin would react to Mallard breaking down this much.
The thoughts inside Spencer's mind would inflict more anxiety through his veins as his breathe became shaky and his chest heavy, though wouldn't even flinch a single bit out of respect for Mallard.
It was a known rule that if you show weakness around someone who's in terrible condition physically or/and mentally, it is a sign of selfishness slipping through your mind.
And Spencer held that rule more higher than his pride, it was the only rule that really stuck to him underneath all his pride and “glory” for some reason. He didn't know that reason.
But he does know that, as of now, he needs to show his respect towards Mallard in his time of grief.
———
The rain would be pouring heavily atop of Top Sheds as the engines rested in their assigned sheds, some of them shivering from the cold while the rest would be sleeping tired of the workload for today. Though some engines wouldn't be either of those.
Silver Fox and Pretty Polly were the only ones awake at the time, Donovan was doing his last runs of the night so technically he counted as awake too. The two would sit in their sheds, which were next to each other. Polly would be looking up at the sky, not trying to guess any constellations, simply grieving silently.
Silver Fox on the other hand was trying to hold back tears from what's happened today, it was devastating seeing Silver King having to get hurt, even worse that Quick Silver started to lash out. She just wanted all this to stop.
She wanted everything to go back to normal, she didn't want to be apart of this war, even if it meant her being in her shed for decades. She never wanted to face all this. She thought frustratingly to herself.
She wouldn't realize until now that she started to have warm tears flow down her eyes onto her cheeks, dripping onto the ground, which would be heard due to the silence that hung over Top sheds.
As she blinked away her tears she would look over to Pretty Polly, who wasn't backed in her shed not caring for the cold, she simply rested outside as her gaze was focused at the sky above.
Silver fox would watch her silently, slowly going forward to get a better glimpse as her. Though Polly would sense her warm aura come near her.
“What do you think of the stars, my dear Fox?”
Polly asked Fox, in a soothing tranquil tone, Silver Fox would flinch a bit at Polly calling out to her, though would go forward a bit going next to Polly. As she got closer she would see tears flowing from Polly's eyes as well, shining in the moonlight as she gazed at the sky above them.
Silver Fox would be surprised at this. Though she couldn't really blame Polly, she thought to herself. With the war going on, and all the deaths that's been happening she must've felt the warmth of each soul disappear by the days passing by, Silver Fox thought as she continued her train of thought.
Finally she'd gaze up to the dark-royal blue sky, with the stars shining like the sparks of fire from an engine's firebox, a new star popping up by a few minutes. Each group of stars forming a shape, a symbol, a constellation.
It's.. It's gorgeous. Silver Fox thought through her grief. Though it didn't feel like the right words to describe the sky somehow, the view felt more than gorgeous. It felt serene yet overwhelming with all the stars in the sky.
Though she'd finally come up with a phrase, that almost, perfectly describes the feelings she has about the sky.
“It makes me feel at home, Ms Polly.”
————————————
YKNOW REREADING THAT IT MADE ME REMEMBER TOO MANY HEADCANONS I HAD FOR THE CANDLE-LIT RAILWAYS AU BEHAHDBXBX BUT YUP IT WAS NICE TO REWRITE THIS PIECE TO IT'S (near) POTENTIAL
SO YUP I'LL JUST POST ANOTHER FANFIC RIGHT WHEN MY BRAIN GETS AN IDEA-

Today's polish was a SUPER tricky one to get on camera. No matter what I did, my camera kept wanting to make this polish look much darker and much more blue than it was irl. The video and the middle picture are the most color accurate. That being said, I don't have any lavender metallic/multichrome polishes and I really enjoyed this one. This is Quicksilver from Minx Lacquer.

EARTH-93: PROJECT INTRODUCTION
Hello, all.
I go by the handle "TheMysticSpyral" or just Mystic here on the interwebs, and I've been hashing out a fan project I call "Earth-93" for a few years now. Earth-93 is a simple but sprawling undertaking on my part, an attempt to revise the greater Marvel canon on a fixed, linear timeline. Though I bend this guideline here and there, on the whole I try to adhere to the 4:1 ratio of Marvel Time (Four years of IRL publication time to one year of in-universe continuity) in order to map out how I want events and arcs to develop, and when characters debut or become prominent.
As an example, here's a rough outline I have in mind for "Season 1" of Earth-93, roughly adapting the original 1960's run of comics:
November, 2002 - The Fantastic Four publicly debut.
December, 2002 - Janet Van Dyne is nearly killed in an act of sabotage. Her boyfriend Hank Pym flushes out the bugs within his family's company.
January, 2003 - Project: Gamma goes horribly wrong. Bruce Banner goes on the run. Donald Blake takes a vacation in Norway. He does not return the same man.
March, 2003 - Tony Stark is found in Afghanistan, after being presumed dead three months prior. The X-Men overthrow the Brotherhood of Mutants and their occupation of the nation of Santo Marco.
April, 2003 - Dr. Steven Strange returns from his extended sabbatical in Asia, purchases a townhouse in Greenwich Village as his new residency.
June, 2003 - Matt Murdock begins practicing law. Peter Parker is bitten by a spider during a college campus tour in Empire State University.
September, 2003 - After repeated delays, Reed Richards and Susan Storm hold a Fantastic Wedding in New York City. The Vault prison facility loses power, a Breakout ensues. Five mighty heroes find themselves united against a common threat.
October, 2003 - Captain America appears during a battle in Central Park, having been unearthed from ice deep below the English Channel a month prior.
February, 2004- The newly-crowned King T'Challa hosts a diplomatic visit of his nation of Wakanda.
May, 2004 - Mar-Vell makes his debut as Captain Marvel.
September, 2005- Galactus menaces Earth, but is narrowly repelled by its heroes.
From there, it's a little less squared away, though I absolutely have plans so don't hesitate to ask. In the meantime, I'll say that as a bridge between seasons one and two, I have plans to implement one of many crossover franchises into my Marvel canon, so stay tuned for that.
At the risk of jinxing things, I feel that I've reached a point in life in terms of writing ability, personal scheduling and mental health that I can produce and upload content far more consistently than before, and since I have been intending to branch out to other platforms aside from my starting place of DeviantArt, I may as well use this momentum to do a "soft reboot" of sorts. None of your content I have previously shared on dA will suddenly become non-canon (Though I definitely need to go back and update several details), nor will I stop uploading on dA altogether.
All content uploaded here on Tumblr will be the most official and updated, however, and for the time being will most certainly become my priority, since unlike dA and even Twitter, Tumblr's fate isn't exactly dangling above a bottomless pit at the moment. I will most definitely be posting separate fanworks and pitches down the line, but Earth-93 will very much remain the majority of my content. If "Earth-93" is not in the headline or in the tags, it's its own thing.

question how tall is your oc, and can u dump their info here :'
ok olympia is, like, 5 foot 8 or 9? she's reasonably tall and her skates give her an extra inch on top of that. the main things about her are that she originated from slime rancher, kind of.
mochi miles, a character from slime rancher, essentially commissioned a stick figure off of the internet from a random artist in exchange for fake video game currency, because being rich really does get you everywhere. olympia is an assistant and companion to mochi, and also unwaveringly loyal to her. she would kill for mochi, in a totally normal and heterosexual way.
(mochi did not commission zoom that way zi developed that trait on zoom own. also i dont know if mochi has even picked up on it tbh? i dont even know if olympia has picked up on it)
olympia's dayjob is harvesting quicksilver plorts in nimble valley, both for fun and for profit. that's what the bubble ponytail and electric skates are for. she is intensely competitive about literally everything and is really really impatient.
(sidenote, the plortonomics section for quicksilver plorts says, "mochi sells quicksilver plorts off-market and little is known about her buyers or their motives." in my head that means that mochi sells quicksilver plorts to stick figures and other sentient internet beings as a quick source of energy, since quicksilver slimes require electricity for plorts. most of her wealth is not made in newbucks, but in stick figure money or actual irl money)
if something doesn't get done fast enough for olympia's standards she will physically go over and fix it to be more efficient, regardless of if she has the authority to. (zi was socialised by a rich kid so tbh, zi acts like zi has the authority for doing just about anything.) all of mochi's manor has been optimized to run itself and she'd get to the rest the ranch if the player character didn't own the place and run the game daily.
zi is competent to a degree. zi's good at a very specific set of skills. olympia is also mean. she's a mean rich kid. a mean girl kind of character who gets snarky and petty and judgemental all of the time who holds grudges like no tomorrow. also, olympia has never fought anyone in her life and you can literally pick her up she's really light because she's optimised for speed and speed alone

Okay okay so for whatever reason I had this daydream in my mind. My family sometimes does events here and there usually only one of the members, but it played out like. So I was out and about I had on I think one of my AHS shirts or finally got my Evan case from Honeylovepress (I haven’t ordered from them yet but I plan to their designs are so cute!) and was walking around not really around my family but not far. Out of the corner of my eye I see someone, so I curiously look up and end up locking with a familiar pair of dark brown eyes. My dumbass doesn’t know what to do or if I should do anything but I figured what the hell, no one’s really around so maybe I’ll say hi or wait for him to say hi. (I sorta live in an area where Evan would blend in perfectly as a local lol) I get closer and just smile hoping he says something first. He does luckily and I ease up saying hi back. And end up having a really nice chat with the one and only. He’s literally such a soothing person to be around really kind I got to tell him my fave roles he’s been in. And how I can no longer listen to Mr. Brightside the same way ever again because of Colin. Literally tearing up as I did so, got to tell him that was such a memorable scene and he nailed it. I sorta just rambled after that and Evan had this very attentive expression listening to me. Giving a little nod head and there or a smile it was hard for me not to stare at him he’s adorable. It was just like meeting anyone else his laugh when I told him I loved him as Quicksilver because he had zoomies 24/7 was so cute. I really do hope I run into him, I feel like true fans of Evan deserve the experience at least once in their life 🥺❤️‍🩹
aww, thank you for sharing, anon 💗🥺
i hope all tweam members could have a sweet, respectful interaction with evan irl. honestly, i would love for him to feel the love!

The lighting is terrible, but!! I did my very first window painting back in March and finally got around to taking a picture of it!!
Spooky Shops is a local collective who hosted an event I took part in around Christmas. During the event, I offered to do some handlettering for one of the other attendees, and the owner asked if I would be interested in doing some window painting/lettering for her when she opened her retail space.
Obviously, I said yes, absolutely, and proceeded to think about it nonstop for the next three months, until she contacted me to actually come by and do the thing.
This was the first time I'd ever painted a window but I had so much fun that when she asked if I'd be interested in coming back later this year to do a Halloween adjacent painting she barely finished her question before I was enthusiastically agreeing.
I suppose now is a good time to put the fact that I take commissions for handlettering projects out there, if you want or need something handlettered shoot me a DM

:{ A Video file is embedded. [Location Redacted], Kanto. 12/18/23 3:37 pm. }:
This video opens mid argument. The afternoon sun shines glaringly off of the snow covered countryside of what can be assumed to be somewhere in Kanto, though without any true landmarks it is a little hard to tell exactly where. We find ourselves in an old, well worn vehicle of some sort, from the looks of it a station wagon, though its hard to make much more out from the inside.
In the back an interesting array of pokemon lounge around the luggage and supplies the professors have brought. A very large Salazzle and a Charmander compete to squish their faces against a single window- despite there being other windows that are completely free- while a Weavile glares up towards Amy in the passenger seat, seemingly unhappy with their existence. In the far back a large faintly spotted Alolan meowth sleeps on a blanket with a happily dozing hisuian sneasel.
Turning back towards the front Echo begins to pick up more of this argument between the two professors. Amy, who seems to be attempting to wrangle a large paper map while also working around a shiny hisuian sneasel on their lap, is insisting that they have things handled and they're sure that they're on the right track. Casi on the other hand seems to be much, much less sure about this and is insisting that they stop for directions.
Casi: I really don't know why we aren't just using Echo to navigate, or just the gps om my phone. This is way more complicated than it needs to be.
Amy: You and I both know why I turned our location off, and the GPS doesn't track us if it doesn't know where we are.
Casi: Yeah, because lost in the Kantonian countryside is much safer. You got me there.
Amy: Look. It's fine. See here we must be on- um. No wait here, it has to be. Hm. Well-
Casi: You have no idea where we are.
Amy: It's been thirteen years give me a break!
Casi: If you aren't going to ask them I am.
Amy: You don't speak Kantonian?-
Casi has already pulled the car over by the side of the road, however, and frustrated exits the vehicle and approaches the first person that he sees, an older man who seems to be simply enjoying the clear winters day sitting on a bench and scattering seed for the local Pidgey and Spearow. Her tone is friendly and cheerful, and she smiles at the man, but as she speaks in a slightly accented Kantonian the man seems to become immediately confused and concerned.
:{ Echo note: I have run the offending phrase through my poryphone translation technology!! Approximate translation follows!! ["What the fuck is your problem?"] :3c }:
Amy, who had been just sort of watching confused through the car window up and until that point, immediately opens the door and in their haste to intervene falls directly into the snow. They scramble back to their feet and over to the pair, and while their speech is muffled through the car door it's clear that they are profusely apologizing in a heavily accented Kantonian. Luckily the poor bystander seems more confused than angry, and after a few minutes of talking the two professors head back to the vehicle. They sit in silence for a moment, Amy trying to brush the snow off themselves, before Casi speaks up.
Casi: ...So I take it I misspoke?
Amy: Is that what you're calling it? Casi where did you learn that??
Casi: Don't worry about it. I was just saying hello!
Amy: That is not what you said at all! And what do you mean don't worry about it? Casi talking like that to people could get you killed-
Casi: Well it's a good thing I asked someone that I knew could speak the language to be here with me, isn't it?
Amy: I... Hm. Alright. Point taken. But don't ever do that again.
Casi: Yeah, ok I won't... So. Were we going the right way?
Amy: ...... We have to turn around...
Casi laughs just as the video ends.

I'm not an expert of any kind and don't know a lot about any kind of superheroes, so take this with a grain of salt,
Theory 1: Quicksilver moves fast and his power is superspeed, and inertia is a thing, so I think he just holds up the can, lets the soda go into his mouth, and somehow prevents himself from choking.
Theory 2: Maybe he's moving fast enough where there's a vacuum around him, which, if he was holding the can, would be included in the vacuum because of inertia and air resistance. IRL the can would undoubtedly be destroyed at these speeds, but we're talking about a world where people have superpowers and can survive in a vacuum without dying, so I'm taking some liberties.
Theory 3: He's secretly a wizard
Congratulations! You have earned a laugh from the father! He says he will accept your vacuum theory lol

The poll on what fic I should work on was a tie but I took one more vote from someone I know IRL and it put Let's Call it Love over the top. Here's a Saturday snippet of Chapter 5:
Ahsoka was not a particularly spiritual person. Sure, she could likely improvise a twenty-minute oral presentation on her belief system if asked. College had given her those skills, and the life experiences to build up a personal religious belief system. But it wasn’t something that was centered in her life. She did not like having long conversations about it. Hearing another white girl explain what chakras are during her lifetime would drive her crazy. But she did have her personal relationship with the other side.
One thing that she did believe, and deeply felt, was that the dreams that come to you the first night you sleep along side someone you are falling in love with are special. Particularly after making love for the first time. It is like a spiritual pool you take a dip in a scant few times in your life. If you’re lucky. It is a communion. You let your guard down when you first snuggle up during that honeymoon period.
Ahsoka dreamt of a lake of quicksilver with a lavender sky and billowy peach clouds. But it was also a quiet meadow. And Barriss was with her. She was wearing flowing gowns and then her work uniform and then nothing at all. Reality warped and fluxed as is the way with dreams. She knew they were talking. But in that dream sense the words were not intelligible but the meanings were. Just the look in her eyes spoke volumes.
Oh, those eyes.
Then the spell was broken. A sound from the real world intruded upon her dream. She felt her awareness slowly surface from the depths of unconsciousness.
She felt Barriss next to her. She felt her skin and her softness, the pool of heat they had cultivated between them. She felt Barriss stir and silence the alarm. Then slip out of bed.
Ahsoka nearly fell back to sleep but something prompted her to open her eyes. Barriss was across the room, in a pool of moonlight, kneeling on a small rectangular rug. She was wearing a bathrobe. Her hair was askew. She was speaking quietly in Urdu and bowed down a few times. Ahsoka closed her eyes again and let her have privacy. Like everyone she had ever dated Barriss had to balance the intersectional aspects of herself. Her sexuality, her culture, her religious background, her relationship with God. She didn’t need Ahsoka gawking at her as she prayed.
Soon enough Barriss padded over in her bare feet, shed the robe, and slid back into bed.
“Heyy.” Ahsoka whispered.
“Sorry if I woke you. Go back to sleep, it’s still early.”
“Did you say a prayer for me?”
Barriss briefly halted her movements. “Pardon?”
“Did you save it for the morning after?”
“Oh, you.” Ahsoka could hear her smile. Then she felt her kiss on her forehead. “Go back to sleep, silly.”
