u think eurovision is a competition between european countries but it's a actually a competition between the jury and the people

btw another 39 people seeking refuge died on sea last night, they begged for help for 12 hours and searches stopped once they found the corpse of a baby. i just find that interesting.

I have a question for y'all because i had a conversation about this today and now i'm super curious.

If you speak more than one language and you read like a book or something in the language that's NOT your native language does your brain translate the text or not? Like if i read a book in english my brain does no active translating into german (that i'm aware of at least), but if i read something in danish it does. (I'm fluent in both but have been speaking english for a significantly longer time)

i enjoy everyone's postal arts in RWS server i just think small artists deserve more attention that's why i don't comment much on big artists. i commented more on those who are new or underrated, still love others tho so don't think i dislike 'em bc i have no reason to do so. ❤💕

You know what I wanna know about Saskia's whole extra body thing, especially knowing that she can do different things at the same time in slightly different places, is how far can one be from the other. Could one of them get in a ship and head back to the Highest Light and leave the other on Midst without causing any problems. Is there a latency issue. What are the implications here for quantum entanglement.

#I mean not that the midst universe obeys the laws of physics given the teletheric exists but we don't have to talk about that #midst podcast #midst spoilers #saskia #there are also some fun concepts in terms of committing crimes and alibis and like how would you ever prosecute when there are two of her #but honestly jumping right to quantum entanglement is way funnier

class of '07 is actually the love triangle between saskia, zoe and amelia, and in the end they will hopefully decide to marvin gaye and get it on because each has the healing that the others want

#YES I HAD TO GOOGLE THE LYRICS #I'm partly kidding but the truth is the whole season was the push and pull of zoe between saskia and amelia #especially the reunion sequence where saskia literally pulls zoe away to dance when she was talking to amelia #tbh idek who I ship with whom #other than saskia with virtually everyone #class of 07 #class of '07 #zoskia #zoe x saskia #amelia x zoe #what would be the throuple portmanteau? #maybe zomekia #zomeskia #lol

no but really there is something morbidly ironic about 60 people seeking refuge calling for help for 12 hours with more than half of them dying in the exact timespan where everything is done to search for 5 people who got lost because they just wanted to have a little fun for 250k. in the same timespan in which there's people saying calling attention to 500 dead/missing refugees on sea is whataboutism. now there's a direct comparison. but i guess these things aren't comparable because uh those 60 people could have easily died anyway if they didn't try to escape and uhhh the others would have been super safe extreme if they hadn't decided to sign a few waivers saying they could die if they got into the under water death capsule and then got into the under water death capsule.

cannot for the life of me get my favourite book in it's original language, so damn it have to do everything myself around here (aka baby's first book binding project)

So yeah, I completed my first book binding project! I did everything on this project myself, from formatting the text to designing custom endpapers depicting scenes from the book (Nothing by Janne Teller). Well except trimming the text block, my dad did that for me. There are some things i could have done better (not creating a giant crease on one of the endpapers while casing in for example) but overall i'm quite happy with it as a first attempt 😊 Will design and have a custom dust jacket printed too, but the actual binding is done. I'll put some progress pictures under a read more

bleh

no matter how many times ppl tell or convince me to draw short nottem just cuz to follow the canon height i'm still not doing it lmao. i did it once and then i stopped cuz i just think nottem looks like he could be a tall and stronger man than dude. i'm actually fine with short nottem so be grateful at least. just stop telling artists to draw what u demanded based on the ship. let artists draw silly men the way they want to as long as it isn't problematic.

#god forbids nottem to be tall #smh #saskia talks #nottemdude

sketch time

you will sit down. you will look at my horrible little women. And You Will Appreciate Them

no this is NOT going under a cut you will see the blood sweat and tears i put into belialah's demon form and you will appreciate it, me, and saskia's off the charts world class monsterfucker status

we got saskia. we're familiar with saskia--or at least you should be. go look at the art by korppipoika and give them so many notes--this post will wait. and while you're out, look at the post about the matriarchs too. and if you're not up to date on saskia and belialah, here's another one for your list. i'll be here when you get back.

up to date? excited? horny? me too!!

so we got those two. in order for the images: saskia (recent), belialah (first draft, still happy with this and haven't been able to capture this vision since)

we got their dynamic:

saskia being a bitch and belialah being, despite everything, head over heels. still can't quite nail belialah's human face, but we're learning

...it took me a long time to nail down belialah's demon form. it went through a lot of drafts---many of which i am not sharing. this one is the oldest one i'm willing to share:

i believe this is draft 3? patch notes from earlier drafts: 4 fingers instead of three, took out "humanoid" eyes, added floaty halo bits. other than that, this is what it's mostly stayed true to. chase gave me an inspo and i remixed it and made it worse because i love body horror. so we have this! extra joint between the wrist and elbow, loads and loads of eyes, sharp teeth (yum!), wings, and a broken halo plus the big horn. love her. she has spider legs below her waist--she has "skirts" that are made from her skin that she usually wears (has?) over them.

made some eensy sketches for ideas:

i tinkered on size, proportion, posture, etc. it's vague, but not exact for either of them. i want a bigger height difference and this is for me first and foremost

i settled on this body type for saskia:

no nipples so she's not naked :) this is for anatomy reference, tumblr. ANATOMY. be so nice to me ;-;

ignore the stuff at the edges, this is part of a larger project idk if i'll finish where i look at all the matriarchs and their body types. saskia is the most...well, besides ethalind, the most hourglass shape. this is the most recent drawing of her i have besides the one at the very end, this is the one i would say is most canon. hence why it is included--the last one i have doesn't quite hit right for me. still working on consistency.

as i improved my art, i wanted to take another stab at belialah. which meant figuring out her lower half.

i did these ones reeaaally recently. i looked at so many things for inspo: crabs, spiders, human pelvises, centaur speculative biology, drider speculative biology, an introspective look at how much of a monsterfucker i am, etc. until i found something i was happy with. these are within the last few days. the lil sketches at the far bottom right of the first page are what i settled on. after that, i tinkered with how she looks with skirts vs no skirts---ignore the sword, it's no longer accurate to what it actually looks like, but that's endgame shit and no spoilers :)

i'm really happy with how she's turned out and i think she's kickass and awesome and i can't wait to beat her and saskia into the ground.

and then we have:

team gaslight gatekeep girlboss :)

i drew this last night!! really happy with how my art is coming along. i hesitated on whether to draw the skirts, because i think the spider legs are so fucking cool and i know logically the skirts are there but tbh its funner drawing the spider legs than the skirts :(

i want to make it very clear: belialah is submissive in the way a guard dog is submissive, to quote a post i once tagged as gilt and lost. belialah is loyal, devoted, willing to protect--but will wait for an order before acting

btw, to make something else clear: saskia? saw the demon form first. is more attracted to the demon form than the human form. is far more willing to smash with belialah in demon form. i love my weirdest little freak of a woman <3

ok that's all bye

It’s so crazy to think about how many ‘what if’ scenarios there are for the rosewood chronicles and how much they would change the series like

What if Ellie had joined Leviathan?

What if Saskia had managed to kidnapped Lottie at the summer ball?

What if Claude never tried to kill Hirana? Or Hirana had survived childbirth?

What if Jamie’s parentage was never kept a secret?

What if Claude had revealed that he was Jamie’s father when they were on the roof in Tokyo?

What if Jamie had joined Leviathan when he was confronted by the Goat Man?

What if Saskia never defected from Leviathan and redeemed herself? Or what if Jamie stayed with Claude and Leviathan forever?

What if Ellie and Lottie had disregarded Sayuri’s desires and told Jamie about Haru’s identity?

What if Ellie successfully killed her parents at the Golden Flower Festival while under the Hamelin Formula?

SORRY I reread the books recently and I’ve been Thinking Thoughts.
