Thinking About How Odysseus Carved The Wedding Bed Out Of An Olive Tree, Which Means The Bed Is Rooted

Thinking about how Odysseus carved the wedding bed out of an olive tree, which means the bed is rooted in the ground.

Thinking about the line “You don’t think I know my own palace? I built it!”.

Thinking about the fact that Odysseus built his entire palace around that olive tree, his and Penelope’s wedding bed, a symbol of their love.

Odysseus’ world is literally built around his love for Penelope.

…..i’m not crying, i just have an odypen in my eye.

This might sound silly but hear me out

Headcanons for Rook, Vil, Malleus, and Idia taking MC for a spin on their brooms, telling MC to hold on tight but then getting surprised when MC iron grips their waist for dear life

Idia Shroud:

Idia almost let out a surprised scream but to save his dignity, his mouth clamped shut after a brief surprised yelp. The tips of his hair began to turn pink but you weren’t paying attention to that, too focused on keeping your grip on him solid as your face rested on his back to protect you from the whipping wind.

Malleus Draconia:

Malleus had thrown out the comment as a slight joke, not expecting you to take him so literally. He was far more used to being the source of fear, of repelling the people he was desperate to connect with. Instead, you find safety in him, holding him tight and staying closer than most people would dare to. He was already fond of you but this only seemed to endear you to him even more.

Rook Hunt:

Rook was already feeling the electricity in the air but to have you so shamelessly cling to him while on a romantic broom ride? You were going to permanently reset the rhythm of his heart at this rate! He openly swooned at your bold behavior and the broom follows suit, leading you on a less smooth than expected ride. Rook was always in control but he wanted to see your cute reactions when you thought he wasn’t, looking a little too pleased with himself when he finally landed.

Vil Schoenheit:

Vil will admit his first concern was his hair, as he hadn’t known he was going to take you on a ride like this, but he forgot all about it when he feels your grip. You squeezed around his waist tighter than any corset could, and you’re much warmer too, a good deterrent for the frigid air. He supposed he was the one to issue the order and he did love that you were such a good listener, ready to tease you thoroughly once you were safely on the ground (and his hair was back in proper order).

vitiligo notes for artists

I’ve noticed that vitiligo has been becoming more common in art, and I think that’s really cool! But as a person with vitiligo, and an artist, there are few mistakes I’ve noticed in people’s portrayal of the condition that I wanna address. 

1. It’s not random. Vitiligo tends to appear more often in specific places, like around the mouth or eyes, the belly button, as well as on the hands and feet. It also tends to be at least a little bit symmetrical.

2. It doesn’t change your eye color. However in some cases it can cause patches of hair to turn white or blonde. 

3. It changes over time. As a kid I had tons of vitiligo spots on my feet and legs, but they eventually faded. For a long time I didn’t have any until I developed a spot above my right eye about a year ago. So if you’re portraying a character at different points in their life, their vitiligo should change too. 

4. All skin colors can have vitiligo. I’ve noticed on Picrew and other character maker games vitiligo will sometimes only be an option for characters with dark skin. Obviously it won’t be as obvious on light skin, but unless your character is albino it should still show up. 

that’s all I’ve got for now, if I think of more I might make another post :)

Hey would it be ok for us to read or see the transformation process for Chase turning into a vampire?

Hell Yeah!:3 I’m always up for some angst!

Warning! Death, Blood, Injury, and other gruesome things ahead!

The exact process of Turning is... not easy or kind. 

Chase is the first human Henrik has ever turned. But he’s studied the process extensively, so hopefully everything should go to plan. He shouldn’t be nervous about this... or so he tells himself anyways.

Chase has lost a lot of blood already, but Henrik needs to get all of it out. He needs to drain Chase, almost completely, of any blood he has, and he has to consume it. It’s fortunate, or unfortunate, then, that Chase is close to death already.

Once drained, a human will die, and the Vampire has only a few minutes. They must get a sample of their own blood, mixed with their victim’s. This is why it’s important to consume their blood. 

Henrik can obtain his own blood easily enough, but since time is of the essence, he doesn’t waste any of it trying to find his tools, and makes a precise cut into his skin. He collects enough of it, and force feeds it to Chase.

Jackie has to hold Chase down as the blood passes his lips. The first instinct of a turned is to find blood, usually that of their Born. Chase breaks the restraint, and jumps at Henrik. Henrik allows Chase to pin him down and feed from his cut. The more blood Chase consumes, the longer his teeth get, the more his body changes and shifts into something that is no longer human... and the stronger the bond between Henrik and Chase gets.

Once Chase has his fill, he passes out, not retaining his memory of the incident. Henrik gets up, feeling weak and hungry himself, but ignoring it in favor of getting Chase to a bedroom to rest and recover.

“Do you think he’ll be ok?” Jackie asks, sitting next to the bed.

“...No.” Henrik sighed, “But he’ll live.”
