A queen at the long fall of her empire

I like to think one of the methods to “halt aging” the Numenoreans had was literally just hair dye so I enjoyed imaging a Miriel that let her natural white hair come through even if the rest of her still appears youthful, perhaps in reference to her elvish namesake or simply in defiance of Ar-Pharazon’s fear of death

[wip] why am i doing this to myself

[phantomofthehoepera]

I want the record to state I have never been this hard in my entire life

[finderheart]

I can't believe it took me this long to post these I finished this like nine months ago

An idea I had for Blood of Eden propaganda/recruitment posters featuring some of our favorite guys - combo of digital-print cyberpunk graphic design style with oldschool Saturday Morning Post covers like you'd see Leyendecker paintings on

I was gonna post these ahead of tabling at a small con and selling prints of them but ended up not tabling because turns out grad school is hard

maybe next year... figured tumblr would like though

the reason i have not yet written a The Locked Tomb Analytical Essay is because ppl think i’d write it about the eighth but they’re wrong. i would write it about the seventh and their view of chronic illness as beautiful. and then i’d have to talk about how that directly parallels the catholic church’s view of redemptive suffering and the passages of the catechism that speak on illness specifically. and how john’s treatment of cytherea paints himself as the Suffering Christ figure and her as the pious and devoted sick sharing in that suffering by which her illness is made his own. and then i experience an emotional fit so violent that my vision whites out. so i will not be writing all of that

surely this 3rd book in the trilogy of 'incredibly compelling female mc goes through insane shit and then dies in the most tragic way you could possibly imagine' books wont contain an incredibly compelling mc who dies at the end. surely. they wouldn't do that

surely the FOURTH book—

We need more women characters who are Male Protagonists. You know. Slightly haggard. She's splashing cold water on her face and gripping the edge of the sink staring in the mirror for a minute. She's coping badly with her deadwife

This tweet means a lot to me.

It’s probably a really cool and good sign that this post I made in 2014 is going around again, right?

I like to think she is as conflicted as I am.

I can't help but think that Pomni was thinking back on this moment from way back when:

"Doesn't that hurt?" You are well aware from multiple personal experiences that it must hurt like a bitch and she still freely offers you that affection with a warm smile despite it all. These two sicken me you don't even understand

#in four days we could be seeing a prime minister every eight hours‚ until theyre coming every four minutes

[necromycologist]

if there was any justice at all in the world “every helen has her troy” would be an idiom (“every beautiful woman leaves a disaster in her wake”) and misogynistic renaissance authors would use it to describe hot women they didn’t like but, of course, inadvertently making her sound insanely awesome in the process. and then in modern times instead of talking about things being their hill to die on women could say “this is my troy to burn” and people on tumblr would be kind of horny about the whole thing and it would get incorporated into the whole “can yuo put that out on me” genre of posts. anyway just a glimpse into my beautiful mind tonight

and if I say they're slowly driving me insane with their secret third thing then what

[cedardivine]

no wait yknow what. it gets its own post

everyone gets onto eva stratt for the "think about it long time" vs. "you have three hours" thing but

operating on book canon a little bit: if grace couldn't do it-- if he said no*-- the alternative was to scramble and fly in the next most qualified volunteer, who had 0 training, 0 knowledge of astrophage, and was not an astronaut. three hours could have been three hours of training for that replacement. three hours could have been three hours of preparation for grace, if he said yes

eva stratt gave grace three hours. not to decide, necessarily, because the decision was going to be made the way it was no matter what. but three hours to come to terms with it, to grieve, to mentally prepare himself. three hours that could have been spent giving humanity a better chance to survive

she borrowed three hours that she didn't have to give grace space to process. to get himself together and come to her, teary-eyed but resolved, and say yes.

and he still said no to her. she gave him everything and he said no. he forced her to force him. she gave him three hours she didn't have. i feel so sick about eva stratt
