How to Create an Atmosphere: Christmas Market

Sight

twinkling fairy lights strung across wooden stalls

snow-dusted rooftops and frosted windowpanes glowing under lanterns

a towering Christmas tree decorated with baubles and stars

timber-framed stalls adorned with red-and-gold bunting, fir garlands, and hand-carved signage

vendors in cozy scarves in their stalls

steam rising from mugs

handcrafted ornaments glinting beside gingerbread houses and nutcrackers

a carousel spinning slowly, full of happy children

couples strolling hand-in-hand beneath mistletoe

Hearing

laughter, joyful conversations and "cheers!" all around

the clink of mugs and glasses in toasts

vendors calling out their specials

the crunch of boots on fresh snow or gravel

traditional carols echoing through the market

church bells chiming in the distance, marking the hour

children giggling near puppet shows or carousel ride

Touch

the bite of cold air on cheeks and fingertips, softened by woolen gloves

the warmth of ceramic Glühwein mugs against cold fingers (often with collectible designs)

soft wool scarves and felted mittens sold by local artisans

the crunch of straw or sawdust scattered on cobblestones to soak up snow

the delicate texture of lace ornaments or hand-blown glass decorations

a gentle flurry of snowflakes landing on coats and eyelashes

brushing against other people, trying to get through the crowd

the heat from a fire pit or heater near a stall

Smell

the warm, spicy scent of mulled wine and cinnamon and orange peel drifting through the air

roasted chestnuts, smoky and sweet, mingling with pine from fresh wreaths

sugary wafts of candied almonds and vanilla from baking stalls

a faint trace of woodsmoke from nearby fire pits or chimneys

pine from wreaths and garlands

fresh pastries and candied apples

warm chocolate and vanilla from dessert stands

the crisp, cold winter air tinged with spice

Taste

mulled wine, non-alcoholic punch, or eggnog liqueur

rich, velvety hot chocolate with a hint of nutmeg

soft gingerbread with nuts and candied fruit, icing melting on the tongue

roasted chestnuts

buttery stollen or fruitcake

savory sausages with mustard

sugar-dusted waffles or crepes

crispy potato pancakes

chocolate-dipped fruit skewers

sugared apples, sticky and crisp with each bite

Schmalzkuchen (tiny fried doughnuts dusted with sugar)

Roll for 3 ingredients. Could you make a meal out of these?

Yes, quite easily!

Theoretically...

I can't think of what I could make my ingredients into :/

Absolutely vile ingredient choices!

"I don't want to read this" is totally valid.

"This is disgusting to me" is totally valid.

"I don't want to read this because it is disgusting to me" is totally valid.

"I don't think anyone should be allowed to read or write this because it is disgusting to me" is authoritarian.

[blackheartbiohazards]

"I don't think anyone should be allowed to read or write this because it is disgusting to me" is authoritarian.

[spellscarred]

Bro, blocking someone and then using their tag like this is, all offence, weak as fuck. Like all you had to say was, na bro I don't promote pedo protags on this here blog, because I wholly agree with the premise of your argument given contexts (i.e., writing abusive relationships to show the evils, great; writing abusive relationships to show the romance, yikes).

This response is so, so comically shitty within the context of that tag, oh my god.

[blackheartbiohazards]

"I don't think anyone should be allowed to read or write this because it is disgusting to me" is authoritarian.

[blackheartbiohazards]

"I don't think anyone should be allowed to read or write this because it is disgusting to me" is authoritarian.

[blackheartbiohazards]

"Censorship of some topics in fiction and art is good and I would be happy if it were to be enacted in a way I approved of"

and

"some things should be banned from ever being written or read about in fiction"

are both authoritarian viewpoints to hold and express, even if you don't have the power to enact them.

If you hold these viewpoints you are holding authoritarian viewpoints.

[averageidiotenby]

DUDE IT’S PEDO FICS EVERYBODY THINKS THEY’RE NASTY

[blackheartbiohazards]

Let me explain this to you in simple terms.

Something being nasty is not a good reason to ban fiction about it.

If we accept that "something being nasty is a good reason to bad fiction about it" then we give a foot in the door for all the people who truly, genuinely believe that queer people are nasty to ban all queer literature.

This is not about defending bad people this is about defending the freedom of good people from tyranny, you moron.

[kawaii-pigeon]

I think if you take it to its logical extreme. Say, banning people from writing stories of sexual abuse. That could then be said "well ANY talk about sexual abuse is bad."

And from that, you could ban books that talk about it irl. Or books like how to recover after being abuse. If its not something to be discussed AT ALL.

[plague-of-insomnia]

The fact that I’ve seen this post in some form on my dash like 100x and each time there’s new idiots who do not get that you can’t have *some* censorship.

Either you’re for it or you aren’t.

The moment you agree that something should never, ever exist in fiction is the moment that anything can be banned.

Remember a while back how Tumblr banned a bunch of tags, including many popular innocuous ones that even people who are for censorship used and were upset about?

When censorship happens, stuff YOU like can and will be banned. That’s how it works.

Remember how a bunch of people had their accounts terminated here only last year for writing about their own sexual abuse?

When you ban “pedo” topics, say, any talk of child sexual abuse in any form, that means people can no longer write about their own experiences. It means people cannot educate others so they can learn how to protect themselves or get help from these situations.

Censorship is authoritarian. Full stop.

Even if “everyone” agrees something is “gross” and “shouldn’t exist,” that does not fucking matter.

Do you know who generally believes queer people are gross and shouldn’t exist??

The same people who are banning books left and right solely because they have queer characters or relationships.

The same people who attack and kill queer folk for simply exisiting.

This is not just some fandom matter or a case of being chronically online.

Protecting freedom of expression is essential, and if you do not get that, I don’t know what to say to you.

[scientia-rex]

And the people who keep bringing up child sex abuse as a reason for censorship are doing it very specifically because everyone feels like then they HAVE to agree with the person in favor of censorship.

It’s not that there isn’t widespread societal agreement on this. It’s that they want you backed into a rhetorical corner where you feel compelled to agree with them.

[ruffboi-mags]

Also, like, we KNOW how this shit shakes out in fandom because it's happened before.

In 2007, Livejournal capitulated to the "pedophilia and sex crimes!" cries of (hate group) Warriors 4 Innocence, and you know what communities got shut down? Slashfic communities. Sexual assault survivor support communities. Authors who'd written non-smut m/m fic even got caught up in it. It was DEVASTATING to fandom spaces. I think pretty much everyone knew at least one person whose account was literally DELETED, or were a member of a community that was wiped off the map because they were considerate enough to include topics like "sexual assault" or "BDSM" in the profiles under the badly-named category of "interests" to indicate that posts on said blogs or communities may include discussion of things like that. Even if it was for a SUPPORT group. And it was because a group of religious bigots came to LJ and said essentially "EVERYONE thinks it's gross and that it's promoting CSA, we should ban it."

Like, strikethrough and boldthrough were a large part of what propelled AO3 out of a more unfocused conversation on one person's blog about hosting a site INTENDED for fandom content, into being an actual archive and nonprofit. And it's a large part of why you won't find AO3 banning topics that you find "gross".

Censorship is authoritarian and it will ALWAYS have more collateral damage than you can imagine.

Happy 100k notes to my favorite "water is wet" post.

[curoopeez]

Robert spent most of his adult life in a badass mecha and is a renowed hero, and he has the attitude and confidence to match. The problem is that without the mech, he looks tiny and frail, even for normal human standarts (even though he's used to throwing punches). So what he ends up with is he looks like those tiny dogs who think they're big dogs and just look like they're trying to pick a fight all the time. This is why he can't ever go to a bar without a fight starting. He just has those faces that start bar fights

I mean the man owns a Chihuahua.

[develop-your-oc]

Which OC is religious?

[artisanofworlds]

Asena is technically, but it's easy to be religious when your goddess is also your mom.

Shiva is not

Aiden is, he comes from a small farm town where religious celebration is so deeply baked into the community culture you can't remove it without removing everything.

Hecate, Isabella, Victoria, Calliope, and Elysium are not religious themselves but are technically considered religious figures.

None of my characters from my urban fantasy verse are religious, but Faith believes very strongly in community.

Reblog if your art project has not, does not, and never will make use of generative ai at any point in your creative process.

[artisanofworlds]

a list of all my major Oc's by what universe they're part of

plus a brief description of the story they're part of

gnostic Maidens universe

Sin and Steel

In the distant future humanity lives in closed cities, cyborgs either created from birth or converted from volunteers wage war, and a strange virus turns people into monsters. So long as people live within the cities enclosed walls the virus can be suppressed but their is no cure.

Until now, legendary bio engineer Dr Abigail Kaiser has created a permanent cure that will at long last allow humanity to leave the shelter of the cities. But not everyone is happy with this and some cities will do anything to keep their citizens in place.

In an effort to prevent the cure from spreading Abigail is murdered in front of her daughter Isabella, who was almost another victim of the hit, almost another piece of collateral damage, almost another sacrifice in the name of control.

almost.

But Isabella is not an ordinary human, and the city's sins have come back to haunt them. The super weapon in the body of a girl they created than causally discarded twice is back. And she wants revenge.

Isabella: a cyborg created by a scientist as a living weapon and then raised as her daughter when the project is canceled. Lives in a dystopian enclosed city that uses its ability to suppress a vicious disease to keep its people in line. When her mother is murdered for creating a cure she joins the rebellion against the grand general, a man who just so happens to be her genetic father.

Annabelle: Isabella's prototype and genetic twin sister. Both the main antagonist and secondary protagonist. She's brought out of suspended animation when the rebellion gets to difficult for normal soldiers to handle. And she does not like this cheap copy of her scrapped twin running around.

Michelle: the half sister of both the cyborg twins she is the legitimate daughter of Grand General Mikael. Her father's position places high expectations on her and the apparent death of her younger half sister isn't helping. Neither is the fact that the rebellion has a brand new weapon whose face is eerily familiar.

Lilith Syndrome

Five hundred years before Sin and Steel, a young woman named Hecate Winters starts an ordinary day at her job as a CSI that turns into a nightmare. A mysterious pathogen has swept through the city turning every one in twenty people into a cannibalistic monster.

But this is no ordinary zombie virus and the infected quickly change from humanoid zombies to nightmarish monstrosities of increasing size, danger and abilities. It will take all of Hecate's brains and resources to escape the city alive. Only to return years later with a team.

Determined to discover the hidden secrets behind the virus they will delve into the city and face it's inhabitants. But not everything is as it seems and the origin behind this nightmare will reveal shocking secrets from Hecate's very own past.

Hecate: a plucky CSI with a fondness for explosives, legal or otherwise. The adopted daughter of a former SWAT team member, Hecate has managed to recently reconnect with her birth family and was planning to meet her sisters before everything went to hell.

That's all for now, I will add more later

[yourocdoeswhat]

Can your OC open a pickle jar on the first try?

[artisanofworlds]

Isabella: provided she doesn't break the jar, yes.

Hecate: can't but will die trying.

Aiden: lol no.

Asena: is Aiden's jar opener.

Morgan: has never opened a pickle jar in his life but theoretically could do so.

Minerva: yes.

Persephone: makes her own pickles, doesn't buy them and thus doesn't have this problem

Victoria: surprisingly enough yes, pole dancing gives you really good grip strength.

Luna/Lavensa : the pickle jar will open itself if it knows what's good for it.

[ocprompts]

how does your oc style their hair?

[artisanofworlds]

Isabella: messy bun

Annabelle: neat bun

Victoria: elaborate hairstyles

Ashley: page boy cut

Kaitlyn; long braid

Asena: crown

I love u narrative songs 💖💖💖

[nat-20s]

Too many generic love songs not enough songs about one specific ass situation

[pronounstheclown]

tag the first song you think of

[yourocdoeswhat]

If your OC is famous, do they interact with fans? How so? What parts do they or do they not like?

[artisanofworlds]

Isabella is not but her mother is.

Hecate is desperately trying to avoid being a religious figure.

Kaitlyn is a super villain, most of her fans are weird.

[develop-your-oc]

What is your OC's heat tolerance when it comes to food? Do they ever add more spice if they find their food lacking in heat?

[artisanofworlds]

fun fact about Katia, she's literally fire proof and there for can't really taste Spice, or rather she can it just does nothing. Being herself: read completely insane, she uses this to mentally scar as many people as possible.
