“You named a bee after me.” “For you, Watson, I’d make adjustments. Always.” “I'm so grateful that I fell into your orbit.” “The thing that’s different about me, empirically speaking, is you.” “I'm gonna miss this - not this, but...this. Working with you. I think what you do is amazing.” “I think you have a lot to share if you cared to. I shouldn’t be the only one who knows you.” “I will never allow harm to come to you - not ever. (’You can’t promise that.’) And yet I have.” “I now value the work we do, first and foremost, because I do it with you.” “We're two people who love each other.” “If you go, I go.” “I’m staying.”

#sherlock holmes #elementary #joan watson #sherlock #elementary really looked at holmes and watson's relationship and said:#'they are beyond definition and labels and it doesnt matter if its platonic or romantic or whatever'#but that they are soulmates and will always come back to one another #because they actively make each other better #and because they love each other #there's so much love and growth and respect in this version of holmes and watson #i love granada holmes but...i think elementary captured just how encompassing this relationship is #even more so - which is a FEAT #im just so sad that elementary continues to get zero recognition as a sherlock holmes adaptation #usually just because its american and bc watson is a chinese american woman #jonny lee miller and lucy liu gave peak performances as these characters and they deserve SOME RESPECT!!#anyway yes i rediscovered this show again NO i will never be normal about it #edit: added a few I forgot and I know there's MORE beautiful lines i'm missing

Okay ermm im having like such bad artblock issues so have this that ive made like a good amount of days ago instead bc im too lazy to take pics of my sketches???? bulk post incoming insanely soon tho.

Lore ----->

This is Kaedehara Arashi (no I didn't steal the name erm....)

He's part of some random universe I'm making again with one of my friends and his lore is way too extensive to just explain in my post so if you're curious just ask me instead but I'll be going over a few random things um

Everyone in the world has like some sort of power and depending on wether it's socially considered good or bad its called either a blessing or a curse. He has a blessing turned curse called "Kabuki Kaede - Narukamis Curse" (and I've tried my best to do research about what names I'll be giving my characters and their blessings but the internet can only offer so much in terms of cultural information). From what I've been able to gather (i like to give my characters names with symbolism) Kabuki is a dramatic form of japanese theatre, and Kaede basically means red maple (or red maple leaf). Yes, I did steal the Narukami mountain name from genshin BUT IT'S A PLACEHOLDER because I haven't made a map yet. The curse refers to the split he created by accidentally finding his power, creating a long ravine down a meadow. The ravine is now known as Narukamis "canyon".

Tho i did my best with doing some research specifically about the dragon spirit that is so called "kabuki kaede" i know literally nothing about the geography of japan so don't drag me just yet- this is also heavily genshin inspired.

FEEL FREE TO ASK AWAY???

Do you think we could get some info on your version of Killer Moth? I recently saw the picture you did of him and… he looks like a fairy who abandoned all Fae life and went to live the rest of eternity in vacation with the humans. I hope he’s enjoying his vaycay in Gotham

thank you for sending this ask bc i've actually been meaning to draw him again for a while and kept forgetting!

Killer Moth AKA Drury Walker* was a human who moved to Gotham from China** with her family as a teenager. His life was outwardly uneventful until his late 40s, when he took a job as the keeper of Gotham's primary coastal lighthouse after the prior keeper had disappeared under unexplained circumstances. She began to experience strange phenomena surrounding the lighthouse and the island surrounding it that led to him being... influenced... by the "mothlamp" inside of the lightroom. His remaining family lost contact with him shortly thereafter. He is not a malignant presence and has few relevant external compulsions, bar the dedicated collection and display of every possible electric light source available to him. Several persons matching her description have outstanding warrants for arrest across Gotham due to petty theft of various hardware and home improvement stores.

*might change her name at some point? can't come up with one rn though i'm sick as a dog and my cognitive function is at like 25%

**not sure where in China yet, see above

#the joke of his character is based off of that one tumblr post thats like #'based on worldwide statistics the ultimate everyman would be a middle aged chinese person whose gender changes year to year'#and yes he wears socks and sandals. btw #clipsverse #ask #anonymous #scribbles #killer moth #drury walker

ROUND 2A, MATCH 2 OUT OF 8!

*Includes Grimm Brothers and Charles Perrault tales.

Propaganda Under the Cut:

Cinderella / Aschenputtel / Cendrillon:

I love all Cinderellas but the Grimm version refocuses the story away from magical aid and transforms it into a story of the ability of grief to conversely power hope. ashenputtel weeps over the grave of her dead mother so much a beautiful tree grows out, with the voice of her mother guiding her and giving her the gown and shoes that ultimately get her to the ball. It turns Cinderella from a kind of passive receiver to a woman whose own love, in a way, saves her—her grief cycles into new joys, her love for the dead changes her for a new life. Idk it’s just a tremendously hopeful, haunting story, grounded in sorrow and love as our ways of guiding into the future.

Her slippers aren't made of glass, thankfully. Also, her step-sisters are blinded by birds who like Cinderella, apparently, on the day of the wedding. (I had to check this, as I knew the sisters had parts of their feet cut off to fit the shoe, but I was sure the mother had something bad happen, but there was no mention of a comeuppance for her. I found it on grimmstories.com, so I'm not sure how accurate to the original it is.)

Ye Xian:

Read it in middle school and have been fascinated with it since.

I wanted to get the chinese word for rain code's title so that I could look it up and see how they write the characters' names in that version and... ?

I know google translate can be janky sometimes, but is yuma actually how you say rain code in chinese?

#rain code #master detective archives: rain code #yes i did figure out that the chinese title is something completely different #but regardless #a funny coincidence #come to think of it is this why the chinese title is not a translation of 'rain code'? because its too similar to the main characters name?

Again not a dungeon meshi reader/watcher but every time I hear about that laois guy I get reminded of how my system had/has a hyperfixation on dragons so intense that we got that big fancy dragonology book and we treated it like the damn dragon Bible for like years

Now, obviously, we understand that there's different interpretations on mythical creatures, and no one interpretation on a dragon is necessarily gospel, but that multiple interpretations on the classic tale of beasts of scale and fire are completely valid and to be expected!

however if you call an Eastern dragon a coatl I'm going to come to your house and slaughter your family

#THEY'RE COMPLETELY DIFFERENT #yes they have similarities but coatls have WINGS typically and dont usually have other limbs. they're more serpentine birds #meanwhile Eastern dragons (Chinese depictions for example) don't typically have wings and are more lizard-like #like Mushu !!!!!!!! Mushu is an Eastern dragon #and then there's drakes and wyrms. which are entirely different bc they can't really fly #drakes are more like draconic horses or dogs. no wings but four limbs and a tail with a reptilian appearance #wyrms are more serpentine with no limbs and no wings. though i think some interpretations of wyrms give them like.. two forelimbs #then there's wyverns. wyverns have two legs and two wings instead of the typical eight limbs (four limbs two wings)#(i also perosnally hold true to the interpretation of wyverns with poisonous stingers for tails but that's just me cause i think its cool)#..... how much of this is just me talking abiut dragons #explodes.#oh yeah and obv there's the HTTYD interpretations which i adore! they're interesting #the designs are so fascinating and from what ive seen seem to have some science behind them #and arent just the typical western style of dragons. which nothing wrong with the western style it's a classic ofc #but it's still fun to see some variation!!#and ofc there's WOF #which holds true to Western dragons in simple anatomy but has its own variations and of course its own lore #then there's. fuck i forget the name but it's a fantasy story based in China i believe #i loved it so much it was so cool #anyways it had a dragon character named Seryu. I love Seryu. he my favorite #anyways i liked the interpretation of dragons there bc iirc it held true to ummmmm some Chinese mythology involving dragons #cause Eastern mythology of drahons is . so much diffetent than Western #Western dragons are commonly very monstrous creatures‚ usually very animalistic #they tend to embody the Christian concept of greed/gluttony hence why they're so typically monstrous/villainous #which i find interesting but i wont get into that #meanwhile. i wanna say Eastern dragon legends more revolve around the idea of a dragon as more of a godly/fae-type creature?#that's probably a poor comparison but that's how i interpreted it. agian im probahly wronf about all of this #im some weirdo rambling about dragons on the internet. dont trust me explicitly #i need to get more dragon mythology books #HELP I REACHED THE TAG LIMIT I DIDNT THINK THAT WAS POSSIBLE GOOD LORD OKAY I'LL SHUT UP NOW

there is something so nefarious about animanga fans’ willingness to perceive the characters as white even when they are explicitly stated to be japanese

#yes this is abt the chuuya is french hc #ive posted abt it before but idc #txt.#and yeah its in part bc of designs and how animes esp feel the need to change designs to ig make the characters more distinguishable #visually at least #but it’s be stupid to pretend east asia isn’t heavily influenced by western beauty standards #and sure race politics are different in asia and east asia especially #so a lot of manga creators don’t think twice about having a character be asian and blonde and green eyed etc #but white fans insisting characters are white/part white… be frrr #also. when ppl try to talk abt how 'oh i don’t think chuuya is french i just think he knows languages bc of mafia business 🥺🥺'#and then every language they hc him as knowing is a european language #like even assuming pm cares enough to educate anyone the first language to be taught should be chinese not fucking french come on #also YES i still avoid blue eyed chuuya content for the most part

I watched American Born Chinese because the few posts I did find about it were mostly positive and I ended up really loving it! The story telling is very good and the characters are all extremely engaging. The show really does feel like a labor of love by everyone who was a part of it.

I know there’s criticism because of how different it is from the source material but… I honestly don’t care about any of that. No I never read the graphic novel, but I’ve heard negative things about it too, and just generally speaking I’m not a person who usually cares for tv media to be EXACTLY like the media it came from. Sometimes, it’s nice to see characters I love in a new story I haven’t already seen, and I think ABC was made with so much love and consideration and passion for the topics it DID want to handle, and has allowed itself to be something totally it’s own.

I hope this show can push past the usual wave of negativity that’s often pointed at minority lead and created media and find it’s audience, I’m really disappointed by how little visibility it seems to be getting at the moment because I think this show deserves a chance to tell its story all the way through

#also I want to see what happens in the potential season 2 #are there things that aren’t super clear and I don’t quite understand? yes #like the ending with Jin #I have no idea what’s going on… but it seems like neither does any of the characters! so that’s OKAY #we don’t always have to have a clear answer to everything in media that’s supposed to be part of the journey too #that’s another criticism I’ve been seeing… y’all the type of people to ask the person next to you at the movie what’s going on half way thru #just ENJOY it just relax and take it all in and let it wash over you #you can question everything the second or third time around just #it’s cool it’s okay #american born chinese #Disney American born Chinese #ABC #Disney abc
