You know how “the moon is beautiful tonight, isn’t it?” is used as an expression for love confessions? It’s said that Natsume Soseki came up with it after overhearing a student translate “I love you” to Japanese in a very literal sense. While there is no source confirming that this exchange actually happened, I still think a scene referencing the expression with Natsume randomly appearing would be hilarious

Pokémon Timeskip Series: Champion Dawn 🌸❄️
Known as Sinnoh’s Ice Queen, Dawn is best known for her intimidating yet caring nature. She’s fierce and calculating, never leaving any room for error especially when it comes to battling.
On her off days you can find her in the contest hall, a hobby she picked up from her mother, or in the Battle Frontier/Pokémon Lab to catch up with her best friends.
It is said she was recently engaged to a certain johto boy (Ethan. It’s Ethan.) however they will not publicly revealed their plans for the wedding as of yet
Made a timeskip adult champion Dawn design a while back! It’s still my favorite of my timeskip series hehehe I hope you enjoy!

Inquisitor Ixchel Lavellan, the Brave Guide
GerryArt Links: Twitter, Instagram, DeviantArt, ArtStation, Ko-Fi
Give the artist some love! I can’t recommend Gerry enough.
I’m absolutely in love with this concept art of my Inquisitor. Gerry truly made her look like the Champion and leader she is!
Gerry’s an amazing artist to work with and incorporated so much imagery from the ideas I sent him and the blurb I said about her character, which is explored in my fic: Dead Pasts and Dread Futures.
Alternate version below the cut.
Gerry sent me three or four initial 3D mock ups of the poses and then kept me in the loop with his process, getting back to me super quickly with a very detailed initial piece and being super receptive to making changes or adaptations (not that I had a lot, Gerry did amazing!)
details i've noticed that are entirely from Gerry's fantastic brain:
- on the grey parts of her coat, is the Dalish crest (the mask with branches on it)
- her waist area has inquisition/chantry flame decals
- there are eyes all over her armor
- the banners have peacock feather elements in subtle satiny details
- ribbon in her braid!
- her BEAUTIFUL boots

hmm i think another thing i like abt kencen is chess should be played on a smaller stage. now i am an intimate staging truther for almost every play so i may be biased but that doesn't make it less true for chess. like i get the appeal of the big sets bc of the way they travel thru location and our initial reaction upon literally visualizing chess on a stage, but i think it makes it so easy for characters to get swallowed and for the stage to feel very empty. which may work like. conceptually but i think in practice it just limits the actor's effect. & i know that you can argue that chess is a show that needs to get by partially on spectacle bc of the quality of the book but i disagree just choose a good book. or make up for it w staging and strong character choices. it's not like it has a shallow plot bc it really doesn't it just doesn't have a well resolved one. which is actually another argument for it to be in an intimate space bc it will make the audience feel more personally invested in the characters rather than the story and will care what happens to them even if they leave with questions (does this distinction make sense?). i'm also not saying that chess Couldn't be done well on a big stage i just think most of the time it isn't
