Jaguar cub in dark clay
[image descriptions: four photographs of a ceramic jaguar cub. The jaguar is looking up and crouching as if the cub was surprised in the middle of walking; its front left and back right paws are extended forward, and its shoulders are hunched. Its tail is curled around one leg to its hip. The glaze is slightly mottled on the jaguar's back, but clear enough to reveal its warm-brown body and black markings imitating a jaguar's rosettes and stripes.]

The Golden Light
Suddenly the sound detector picked up on a low frequency. Jamie's eyes widened.
Something was coming directly towards him – and coming fast.
"Oh gods, oh gods, uh." Jamie's hands fluttered in the air. He wasn’t wearing Frostbiter's bracelet. He didn't know whether to reach for his camera, or grab his gear and bolt, or lie down and give up, and his window of opportunity was closing by the second.
The entity decided for him, picking up speed as it barrelled straight at him. Camera it was then. If he was going to die, then he would die vindicated.
Carny voice: Get ya OTNWAS Spinoff Ghost-Hunter Jamie one-shot here! We got ya ghost hunting shenanigans, we got ya 18 year old Jamie being a badass, we got ya healthy dose of Hijack. We even got a Percy Jackson-esque fight! But most importantly, we have a story about two big brothers and their little light.
This fic started off jokey-jokey but quickly ran away from me and got really sentimental. And long. I'm happy with how it turned out! I highly recommend that you read OTNWAS ahead of this, but it should be accessible to new readers too! Thank you to @jjackfrost for writing the OG parent fic, beta-ing, and helping patching up that massive plot hole! And a huge thank you to @destinyisagift for your incredible design and headcanons for Jamie’s "Frosbiter” sword!
I posted it up on Ao3--- ((there’s now a fic I wrote on my account??))--- which I linked in the title or you can click over here: https://archiveofourown.org/works/40207104
Have fun!

I've been re-reading @anbu-legacy and decided to do some doodles while I go :)
This set is all from the "ANBU Trials" arc. There is one doodle per chapter, and some random ones thrown in there for fun. I wanted to add something that either made me laugh or thought would be fun to illustrate.
I would highly recommend reading Legacy if you are 18+! It is very good and the writers are amazing!

沉香 chénxiāng, agarwood
A type of wood commonly used for incense. Trees afflicted with heavy stress are highly preferred over their healthy counterparts, as it is their infected heartwood that provides agarwood's valued fragrance.
[ID: A portrait of Liu Chenxiang from the waist up, looking forward solemnly. He is holding a mountain-shaped incense burner which is emitting incense smoke. Where the smoke crosses his face, features of a young Erlang Shen are visible instead, including his Heavenly Eye. Behind Chenxiang is a split log of agarwood, the inside of which is infected and blackened. Where the incense smoke crosses the log is desaturated, making the log appear more like a mountain. The shadow of the log extends upwards and where it intersects with the smoke is colored like a 青绿山水 painting. Over the shadow is written “香炉墩 (Lit. Incense burner, Fig. Only son in the family)” from right-to-left in golden seal-script. A red stamp to the right of the text reads "宝莲灯 (Lotus Lantern)." End ID]

Delighted to report I've finally found him, the most attractive man of the 19th century! As no one else could ever compete with those lustrous locks, that piercing gaze, those long tuber-like fingers and of course the truly impeccable fashion sense—this blog is now complete. Thanks for the memories, and remember to choose Grand Trunk Railroad. Carte de visite, circa 1860s.

still cackling/crying about having invented an incredibly Autistic-Coded Alien (classic archetype) species in my sci fi LARP but nobody clocks this immediately because two of its most visible traits are
1. friendly and sociable
2. good at, and desirous of, ‘fitting in’/‘belonging’ socioculturally/as part of groups
edit:
3. it is not mechanically or culturally particularly geared towards playing a ‘Nerd archetype’ such as a Scientist; rather its mechanics easily make for a good (somewhat unusual) combat build.

I went through some kind of emotional breakdown during the summer and locked myself inside my basement for 2 months to record a mountain goats coveralbum. If anyone is interested

You've never seen snow before?? Coming from a 907 area code, i think you nailed cold down pact. I don't think i could describe like a beach or something. Do you have resources that help you describe weather you are not familiar with?
Never seen snow! Okay no well I've seen it from a distance in a plane on a mountain, and I saw it from a distance once in the UK on a mountain, lol.
But up until those points, I hadn't even seen it on mountains up until my mid-30s.
As for resources, they're honestly kind of like "the same" as they are for everyone else - the internet, TV, books, etc. I say "the same" because not everyone knows how to research? But I enjoy researching stuff, and I like recreating the sense of things.
But I always did find it amusing that you know the first two really long fanfics I wrote on this site heavily feature snow, snowing, ice, blizzards, ice powers, cold temperatures and so on and meanwhile the place I live hasn't seen snow since like the dinosaurs. :D
