Posts for fandoms I'll eventually get into

....eventually

[stormsthatrage]

Shoutout to Project Hail Mary for being the only media where the unconscious protagonist is dragged off screen by an alien spider monster and the audience's reaction is heartbreak on behalf of the alien spider monster.

[nyxsnotepad]

Genuinely PHM's portrayal of alien life as something to be cherished and worked alongside with instead of feared and fought and murdered because they might be a threat to us is SO refreshing and I'm so glad everyone is acknowledging it.

It was nice not having to cover them in blood and soot this time

[apathetic-revenant]

favorite bits of the cast interviews in the LOTR special features:

Dominic Monaghan, Billy Boyd, Elijah Wood and Viggo Mortensen all taking the piss out of Orlando Bloom for going on about a cracked rib too much, while Orlando Bloom desperately tries to wriggle out of talking about it (special mention to Elijah Wood’s “oh it hurts, babes, and I can’t ride the horse, babes” and Viggo Mortensen’s “they can be very fragile, elves, especially the…Mirkwood strain…”)

Ian McKellen commenting that “they never did find any suitable underwear for Gandalf…”

Dominic Monaghan going on and on about how Viggo Mortensen apparently had a crush on one of the Rohirrim extras (who like a lot of the Rohirrim extras was a woman in a fake beard) while Vigoo Mortensen just mutters “one could perhaps say something about Mr. Monaghan’s…proclivities…”

Dominic Monaghan’s imitation of John Rhys-Davies ordering food at a restaurant for the whole cast. “You have partridge? BRING THE PARTRIDGE!”

John Rhys-Davies talking about an incident with the Lothlorian boats and saying “if an elf and a dwarf are in a boat…and…the boat goes under…let us say that the blame was not placed on the elf” while Orlando Bloom splutters “he’s a big guy, man!” 

Elijah Wood talking about how the hobbit actors shared a trailer with Ian McKellen and sometimes they would hear inarticulate bellows of protest from his side when they played loud music in the mornings

Viggo Mortensen talking about how, while filming with those same boats, Kirin Shaw (Elijah Wood’s scale double) started telling him “if the boat tips over…save yourself…I can’t swim.” 

Elijah Wood describing how Sean Astin would try to direct the helicopters to land while they were on location, while the other three hobbits were screwing around and throwing pinecones at each other

Christopher Lee recounting how he had so much trouble going up some steps in Orthanc with his long robe that he stopped in the middle of the scene and said, “I cannot get up these goddamn steps, Peter.” 

Viggo Mortensen mentioning that he left a weekend rehearsal and went walking down the street still swinging his sword around, and promptly got the cops called on him

if we can set aside attachment discourse for a moment (please) i think the jedi marriage prohibition makes sense in a “please don’t enter a complex legal, financial, social, and in some cases religious contract, the specifics of which vary wildly depending on planet and culture” way. the single jedi with a law degree does not have time to draft everyone’s prenups to prevent the whole order from getting sued

[the-fallen-blue]

#we could create so many interesting new problems if we ignore romance and make it about contracts generally#jedi prohibition on getting a loan. jedi prohibition on signing a waiver before bungee jumping. etc

"Qui-Gon didn't try to buy Anakin or the engine because there wasn't anyone in town who offered a credit exchange service" wrong. Qui-Gon gambled for Anakin under the table because after dealing with the Cyrkon Delinquency of 24850, Master Olobi, Esq, has personally promised to hang by the the toes from the highest tower of the Temple for one week any Jedi who generates any trackable legal transaction or obligation between the Order and the Hutts.

The sun comes back and red foxes run free again.

Definitely the longest comic I've ever made:)

[hylasregilla]

Huge fan of these DIY IR goggles which appear to be made of a smart phone duct-taped to a pair of safety goggles and zip-tied to multiple straps.

[teaboot]

Clearly the engineering prowess of a scientist used to working with a USAmerican public school budget

[aroace-ryland-grace]

never not thinking about eva stratt being a history major. she has seen what can happen and she will do everything she can to make sure it does not happen again because she has also seen the love and knows it's worth saving

#ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME

[glasspudding]

wait i’m sorry

but does anyone else notice how in the second gif, they are so busy staring into each others eyes that merlin doesn’t notice the jug being taken from him?

[onigi]

I’m not in this fandom but I am the guy on the right in the second gif

Other people came here to eat dinner, your highness

#WHERE IS THE HETEROSEXUALITY HERE#PLEASE#SHOW ME

it was never here. literally. in the first episode the gay subtext was unbelievable. 

#I bet the other knights have just got used to this#like#oh look Merlin and Arthur are having a moment again#it’s your turn to take the tray and finish serving the food Percival#no it’s not I did it last time#get Leon to do it it’s his turn#oh damn it’s not even worth the argument now they’re making out and he’s dropped the tray#that’s the second time today#right#who’s going down to the kitchen to get more food then?

[merlin-addicted]

THAT’S THE PROOF THAT MERTHUR IS REAL

Goodbye (Sad Beeps) by scadarts

[originalleftist]

And then R2 spent the next 20+ years fucking up Vader's shit.

Who carried the Death Star plans from Padme's daughter to Padme's son?

Who flew copilot on the mission to blow up said Death Star?

This guy.

Hello. My name is R2D2. You killed Padme. Prepare to die.

baby photos

[cloudabserk]

somebody pointed out that from a photo alone it wouldn’t be super clear to rocky how different a baby human was. so now there’s a youtube interview for rocky to watch

[alexxuun]

Grace think fondly of his scar if you even care.

[rylandgraces]

i think if i were a jedi i would make it my life mission to make yoda angry. i would give anything to hear his little goblin voice mutter the words “thin fucking ice, you are on” and click his little cane on the ground. i would do anything. kick him as im walking and be like “oh sorry didnt see you there.” go with him to the market and try to buy him for four credits and say “oh my bad i thought you were a head of cabbage.” raise all the chairs in the jedi temple just an inch. catch him while he’s sleeping and paint his little nails and then be like “odd that someone caught you slippin master yoda. wonder who could have done that.” leave crumbs in his seat in the jedi council. i mean i would do anything

[fancycake]

Rocky and Grace are yelling at each other. Rocky stops mid argument to demand that Grace put on his angry eyebrows. Grace immediately stomps to the whiteboard, stomps back over with the dry erase marker, draws angry eyebrows on the xenonite ball. the argument continues

[lana-is-reading]

since this is being posted i believe a month after the last part im gonna say that yes they've been at this for 4 weeks and grace categorically refused to engage with a weird dream riddle and delegated that in favor studying of his new front yard decoration until frustration finally broke him

we love an avoidant behaviour king

part 1, part 2, part 3, part 3.5, part 4, part 5

+ bonus what i imagine the eridians looked like witnessing the Plot™

random yapping by yours truly below the cut

i have FINALLY finished this thing!! holy crap thank you to everyone who has been following and for the incredible, enthusiastic comments that have been feeding my ego!

this wasn't honestly supposed to go beyond the first part but the muse asks for no opinion when she takes a mallet to your head i guess,,

since ive personally always been a fan of people showing sketches with their work heres some stuff from my process:

these are as i affectionately call them my insane person notes, frantically scribbled down and barely legible to even me

(edit: forgot to add since my handwriting isn't that legible, i picked the random plant parts of the tree from googling symbolism of plants so if anyone's interested here tis

Aspen- bravery, facing the unknown

Mangrove- strength, support

Oak- longevity, strength, robustness

Red carnation- i love you forever

Grapes- rebirth

Maple- strength, resilience

Ginkgo- resilience, longevity, duality, peace)

and here's a random warm up page that i did:

once again thank you everyone for your support and interest, it's been amazing
