After Beltane I was full of questions. "When the man in the gold cloak summoned me to the stone and I spoke the words..." I began, "I wondered...does it mean that I am special?" "How do you mean?" asked Juniper. "There were lots of other children there, but he didn't summon them. Why did he summon me?" "Somebody had to do it. Why not you?" She was being very dense. "But I felt as if I was the right person." "Yes, you were the right person. Then. At other times other people are the right person for something." "So it doesn't mean I'm special?" "Everyone is special." "It doesn't mean that I'm bound to become a doran or anything?" Juniper didn't answer this time, but went on stirring the soup as if I hadn't spoken. "I want to be special," I said obstinately at last. "So does everyone else. So we have to take turns." "But some people are more special than others, aren't they?" Juniper suddenly got extremely irritated. "The really special ones are the ones who don't ever think about it," she said.

Fictional women to aspire to #1

Juniper (Ninnoc)

From Wise Child by Monica Furlong

Heals the people in the village even though they scorn her.

Is patient with Wise Child.

Takes Wise Child to church even though she doesn’t follow the same beliefs.

Is kind to Cormac, who is also rejected by the villagers.

Doesn’t wish ill on people who hurt her.

Thinks before she says anything.

Is a witch

Has cats

Makes her own butter and cheese

Catalyst is objectively the funniest weapon type because amongs the catalyst users we have:

BOMBS

*Throws rocks at you* *throws rocks at you* *throw rocks at you*

Stamp of JUSTICE

What? Catalyst? No, no. Gohei wand

Cast spell: THROW HANDS

Magic keyboard

Snake. (literally)

#i also think that lore-wise there are more non-catalyst catalyst users than there are of other weapon types #(by which i mean characters that in lore have used/can use catalysts but dont in gameplay for Reasons) #(like venti yelan childe etc. kaveh & dori too kinda) #special shoutout to claymore users tho whos got: #doesnt actually wield the claymore bc thay have a buddy who does (kaveh & dori) #and cant actually lift it so uses anemo to do it for them (sayu) #klee #ningguang #yanfei #yae miko #shikanoin heizou #nahida #kusanali #buer #baizhu #genshin impact #xander rambles

More doodles for the one piece spy x family crossover

#one piece #spy x family crossover #revolutionary sabo #portgas d ace #monkey d luffy #still debating on a spy codename for Sabo. since WISE seems to enjoy times of day I want it to have something to do with dawn or dusk #but that might be a bit on the nose #sabo’s walking stick is like his replacement for his pipe. blunt bludgeoning weapon that he can carry around in broad daylight #ace as an assassin decides his disguise is just going to be. being shirtless #plus those silly sunglasses but the main thing is the shirtless mess #because if he can’t be shirtless during the day in society then he might as well be shirtless when he’s out being a badass #the three of them are dumbasses (affectionate) #the only reason luffy looks as put together as he does is because sabo helped him pick the outfit and it’s extremely comfortable #mostly to help luffy get jobs. luffy does whatever job he feels like doing every day! #some days he’s a waiter some days he’s a gardener some days he’s a cashier #when Lois eventually gets over his paranoia over luffy popping up everywhere and finds out luffy is sabo’s brother he starts #paying luffy to babysit Anya. which of course means sabo is babysitting the both of them because trusting luffy to watch a child is maybe #not the best idea.

Why is it unwise, Caithe?? WHY. 👀💦

I remember when I first heard this line and proceeded to freak my baby sapling mind out thinking Trahearne was going to be a Big Deal.

I mean he was, but man, let me tell you, getting those levels to advance the story was spent in a state of pure anxiety. XD XD XD

#gw2 stuff #trahearne #sweet sylvari dawn child #that line always make me wonder why Caithe was so hesitant #Is Trahearne bad with saplings?? #Did he show them a dismembered Risen arm once and they cried so now Caithe is like “Um u sure that's wise...?” at Pale mum

I saw this on twitter and the idea of this happening sounds absolutely hilarious. Like Han, Ventress and Merrin just direct Thrawn to a DMV and make him coming to dathomir absolute hell

I- I know genuinely nothing about Star Wars besides the first three movies (is that 4-6 or 1-3? Idk the last three in the OG run that are chronologically the last 3 movies) but I do appreciate this information. I sent a screenshot of this ask to my dad and he has been ranting about Harrison Ford as an actor for the past 10 minutes.

#bones replies #hi I lived under w rock as a child media wise #Star Wars #still posting bc some of y’all might find this amusing #my dad is EXTREMELY passionate about Star Wars and sci-fi

#gallavich #-adjacent #ian gallagher #liam gallagher #listen to the child #for he is wise #or you could just not be a baby #and go tell the man you love how sorry you are #and that you want to marry him #because you've been through hell and back together #and you can't imagine your life without him #but then we wouldn't have that great bar scene #so i guess it's okay

Dp x dc idea 163

Danny learns while being held by the Giw that he can in fact make portals. For whatever reason he can call the portal even with anti ecto cuffs. They start out small and unstable. Disappearing with the blink of an eye.

It’s only when he is being dissected it’s a fully formed portal. Only lasting long enough to engulf him. Table and all.

He has no idea where he’ll end up. All he knows is it’s somewhere on earth and he is still strapped to the table.

Some potential places he could end up. The Kent’s barn, in front of Martian manhunter, in the middle of the gala, the middle of a legion of doom meeting, the middle of the justice league, maybe even in the middle of a Wayne family dinner.

#dpxdc #disection #Danny is not having a good time #but hey #he can make portals now #literally could end up anywhere #imagine it’s the gala then the next month brucie Wayne adopted the kid #Martian manhunter. nop he isn’t having that. how dare whoever did this #Superman home for a family dinner. poof heartbeat in the barn #ma and pa will help and take in that child #so many places he could end up #the Giw are gonna have fun pretty soon #my thinking on why it works is cause he was born ghost wise from a portal #he is calling to it #not using his powers #just manipulating what is around #idk #that’s my thought process #tangles ideas
