Heartbreak...comes quickly as an earthquake, Quiet as a snowflake, heavy as the sky, She speaks in colours to me, even through the pain...

May I ask for some details about your Tav? What do you mean by hasnt really lived as a tiefling before? Like literally has never seen another tiefling? Seems like being abducted by the mindflayers introduced major life changes to your Tav

I'm sorry this took so long to answer, but I ended up doing a whole bunch of art to answer this!

Ember has a really extensive backstory that's kind of long, but the short version of it is: she was caught in the crossfire of a deal her parents made with a devil. They couldn't have a child of their own because her mother was too severely ill, so they made the deal in the hopes of returning her health and along with it the ability to bear children. Unfortunately devil deals being what they are, they ended up with Ember who the devil stole from her birth parents.

Her mom was a high elf and her dad a half-elf, and her mom's side of the family were quite vocally anti-Tiefling. Because of her mother's health problems, however, they couldn't just sever contact with her parents because they relied on their money to cover the cost of healers, expensive potion ingredients and the like. They couldn't be trusted not to be a threat to Ember though, so the decision was made to disguise her as their biological daughter throughout her childhood.

Here's an age chart!

As a result, Ember didn't even know she was a Tiefling until she was around 4 or 5, when she began to present as a sorcerer and accidentally undid the disguise spell (she ends up a bard thanks to her mom, but her control of magic comes from sorcery).

Before the events of the game, the most time she ever spent as a Tiefling was when she was 13- when her mom died and her dad disappeared, the disguise spell having relied on her mum's magic. She went through hell for a while after that and as soon as she could learn how to cast the spell herself, she jumped at the chance and went back to living as her old half-elf self. So when she gets taken by the Nautiloid, it's her being forced to actually live as her real self and as a Tiefling for the first time. As a result she doesn't have great control over her tail, because she's just straight up not used to having one.

She also spends a lot of Act 1 jumpscaring herself whenever she walks by a mirror lmao.

I do plan to do some comics that are set earlier in the game at some point, and those ones will explore more of her backstory. What I've done so far has just happened to be set in Act 3, after she's already sorted a lot of her shit out. I just have no idea when that'll actually be!

#rhubarbtonapalooza #sharky speaks #I could go on pretty much forever about Ember's backstory if I let myself #So please feel free to ask more questions about her please enable me #I tried to write her with the same level of complexity as the other companions including Durge #so she has a full character arc and side quest that resolves in Act 3 #but I wrote the main stuff out in bullet points once and it ended up being 1.5k words #so there's a reason I can't just lay it all out in one go #I'd end up with Do You Love the Colour of the Ember Lore #baldur's gate 3 #bg3 #my tav #sharky's tav #tav: ember #oc: ember #Ember lore drop #sharky art

my beautiful wonderful morty oc who dies horribly for the plot <3

- angel gets her nickname from her dimension code … and bc shes oh so lovely ^_^ oh and bc she dies.

- hes super good at knowing what appeals to ricks and so tries to help the other citadel mortys (and notably emorty) to… act right. and hopefully keep their ricks. and not get hurt

- she gets lucky with her first rick being nicer than most… but his next rick is ur standard abusive rick. he ends up getting angel killed through carelessness or smth similar

- emortys closeness w angel is part of what endears him somewhat to morty prime later on. if anyone cares.

#more notes under the cutttt :] #rick and morty #morty smith #… can i use that tag for this or will i get attacked by wolves #morty oc #morty a-831 #artsbotz #YAYYYY MY BEAUTIFUL WONDERFUL SON …… #ok ummm some more stuff i didnt wanna type up properly #designnn wise. ok this is a silly specific thing i decided on where mortys have their hair parted on the right. but emorty is on the left #like hes mirrorrrrred. and also silly right = good / left = evil symbolism #i loveee eye colour symbolism too w mortys (and ricks) … #i think most mortys are like an even mix of blue and brown eyes #but angel has blue specificallyyy to match morty prime. yahhhooooo #oh and emorty has brown to contrast them both … and to parallel c137… etc #the long hair is just for fun and gender reasons BUT the hair over the eye is supposed to symbolise like. emortys eyepatch #(and also the fact that she dies from getting shot in the head.) #the hairclip does smth similar. #oh speaking of. im not totally decided on how emorty gets the hairclip back #but current idea is he manages to bust into where they keep all the dead mortys #he seems to have a pretty extensive knowledge of the inner workings of the citadel even early on sooo. its just a matter of When and How #he learns different things #btw he keeps the hairclip forverr. takes it w him out of the curve and all #anyways ig the main concept behind angels relationship w emoty is like. she does everything perfectly. acts exactly how she needs to #and its still not enough. shes still victim to the vicious system of the citadel and is thrown away like garbage either way #i imagine emorty to be kinda disillusioned stright out the test tube lol .. but this is part of what solidifies his hatred for the system #AND. for Sellout Mortys. #ok i can barely think n read rn .

the psychological horror created by Hasbro’s desire to sell more toys rather than honour the desires of the original creator resulting in an immortal alicorn princess of friendship doomed to watch her friends grow old and die without her is so interesting to me. by trying to cater to children more you have accidentally created a reality in which death of the main characters friends as she lives on for centuries is not just implied but confirmed. idk it’s fascinating to think about

#EVEN MORESO BY G5 #with discord in the comics clearly descended into misery without fluttershy #their absence speaks volumes #and I know kids are able to handle mature topics like death earlier than we often assume #but still it’s so strange to think about death of the main characters being canon and confirmed in the colourful pony cartoon #wild #mlp #major character death #character death #DONT GET ME WRONG I LOVED THE LAST EPISODE SO MUCH #it’s just !!!!! I wish twilight was growing old alongside them #I don’t like how much she looks like celestia too #she’s grown so apart from her roots it feels like it undoes much of her growth #at the same time it’s the best ending we could’ve hoped for all things considered #I JUST MISS HER ICONIC FRINGE

Tbh I think the Barbie movie handled its theme of existentialism better than the feminism.

#the feminism of the barbie movie is nothing new #its nothing you wouldnt have seen in a 2016 tumblr post #and in its efforts to platform the struggle of misogyny it unintentionally shrinks the issue of other forms of bigotry #like it IS about a cis conventionally attractive white woman and the prejudice that she applies to her #because shes a woman. so is not on the TOP of the privilege scale and is going to face bigotry as a result #like Greta Gerwig clearly wrote what she knew #and she didnt feel she was educated enough to touch any other topics #the mistreatment of women is a layered topic and it is a complex matter depending on the varied range of women in this world #queer women trans women women of colour #they dont all experience misogyny in the same way that Barbie does #so its definitely not a very rounded discussion #like even Gloria focuses entirely on the pressure of just women in general #like you can claim that shes speaking from her own experience but. its very mouthpiece-ish #her speech is for the purpose of whacking you over the head with the film's message #yknow i think the focus leans too heavily as ''look what we as girls have in common'' #but doesnt touch enough on ''but look how we differ too.'' a balance between those two concepts would have been nice #i feel like Sasha being like ''hell yeah white saviour barbie!'' was like a lazy acknowledgement that theyre AWARE of this issue #but like. theyre too deep into the script now #anyway yeah i was just thinking about this cuz of that gifset #Barbie feeling unsafe and being objectified in a public space #while Ken faces no issues whatsoever. even tho he is a loudly colourful flamboyantly dressed man on rollerskates #because we are going for a misogyny message here. so we need to poof homophobia out of existence for a bit okay?? #like this is basically what i mean. putting misogyny under the spotlight #and as a result quietly pretending other social disadvantages dont apply right now. bending reality to reinforce the message that we want #this isnt like. a scathing criticism on barbie btw. i dont have a film critic brain #im dumb and i love everything #also im really not the person whos qualified to talk about this #this is just some word vomit because i cant stop thinking about it #anyway i think the themes of what it means to be human and live and breathe fucked royally #i loved that stuff

Once Upon a Dream

TLC // Sleeping Beauty AU

Princess Winter has been cursed the moment her father rejected the advances of the evil fairy Levana, destined to die on her seventeenth birthday when the third scar marks her face.

To protect her, Winter is raised away from court by three kind fairies, unaware of her royal lineage. Surrounded by her godmothers and her childhood companion Jacin, Winter grows up to be the fairest of them all.

But on her seventeenth birthday, the curse strikes and all seems lost. There’s only one hope: Armed and aided by the three fairies, Jacin sets out to defeat Levana and break the spell - but will courage and love be enough against the dark powers of Levana?

Winter // Aurora/Briar Rose

Levana // Maleficent

Cinder, Scarlet, Cress // Flora, Fauna, Merryweather

Jacin // Philip

One fun thing I did this year is wake up one day and decide that I was going to start to do embroidery, and then I did! it was surprisingly as straightforward as that. something something about the joy of art that you can hold in your hands

My mum on my sister asking to get more piercings: Look at me, I'm perfectly pure. No piercings, no nothing. Hannah's pure, too, Look at h-

Me: Nope. No. Do not lump me in with that, thats gross. Nope.

Her: But you are!-

Me: Noooooope. Nope. Nope.

*she drops it and we all continue talking*

*2 minutes layer*

Her: Can I mention my pure ears again?-

Me: I'm out. *leaves*

#its worth mentioning she had a glass of wine and was trying to conk herself out for sleep #but i do think she woulda thought that anyway. just not said it #yucky #and speaking from personal experience- #there's a lot worse you can do with your teenage years then stick some holes in your body. #as far as i'm concered- do whatever you want as long as its legal and consenual. #if you regret it you'll grow and get over it and be better later on #dye your hair crazy colours. cut it all off. pierce your tongue. #watch r rated movies. masturbate. dress in wierd and wonderful ways. try everything thats different. #figure out what you like and what you want #its worth it to have figured yourself out even if you look back and cringe or wince later. #edit: do whatever you want as long as its legal. consensual. and healthy/safe

That haircut and the Stubble👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼 for scaea looks so good fr. But I was not expecting them to be blonde. Jumpscared

JGSNJJGSSJLS

this is actually incredible timing i am in the black emporium deciding what her hair colour should be for her to be less tethras coded right now. if anyone has thoughts i’m all ears. your vote could be what prevents her from being even blonder which IS on the table

#im thinking abt red. #she looks good in dark brown but i was hoping to have ONE light-haired character to draw #if its what works its what works though #im trying to figure out what suits the name #if anyone just wants to chime in with the hair colour vibe scaea makes them think of #speak now or forever hold your peace
