Side Fic
A snippet by @peppermintquartz of Chimney and Hen talking about Buck and Tommy.
Me, who only ever wears black stiletto pumps at work: “Wow, I can’t believe none of my coworkers have commented on my new pair of black stiletto pumps.”
I have no idea how to paint horses, horse gear or armour.
But I needed to make "knight and his beloved lord" paintings that look like something I could have seen in a museum, but I didn't because there were none, so a boy must do what he can.
And, even though this artwork might look like it's an angsty goodbye, it's actually Hans feeling clingy with separation anxiety even if Henry's is about to travel not further than a nearby city where he knows he can get some real good wine to make his lordly bitch happy.
Wim T Schippers "Peanut Butter Platform" / museum visitors
In 2011, an iteration of this 1969 floor-bound installation was damaged on several occasions while on view at the Boijmans van Beuningen Museum in Rotterdam.
The work itself is true to its name: 1,100 liters of creamy peanut butter spread over a 14x4m expanse on the ground. Unfortunately, this iteration of the piece was installed without guardrails, which led to four separate visitors accidentally stepping onto the artwork.
In the wake of these events, museum officials refused to cordon off the piece, explaining that such an intervention would not be aesthetically pleasing. They did, however, send each of the museum visitors a bill for the restoration of the piece, which involved museum staff applying new layers of peanut butter to even out the surface.
liking a ship but disliking the distinct set of stock fanon that they have been assigned is like one of those punishments dante came up with when he wrote the worldbuilding for hell in inferno
