Hobbit-Hole. An orderless place for the things I'm obsessed with. Turns out this means artwork, mostly around the Silmarillion, the Raven Cycle, and Legend of Zelda, animals both cute and awesome, and random cool science.

DWARF FUNICULAR RAILWAY??????

We should talk about Nicky being a PR agent for other exy players

we absolutely should!!! the idea of him entering a role in which his job is specifically to NOT put his foot in his mouth (and making sure clients don't either) is kind of funny but i'm 100% certain he can be a professional. and i know it's more likely that if he becomes a pr manager it's for german players but i can definitely see andrew only wanting him as his agent. (at first he says he doesn't need an agent but he eventually comes to the conclusion that he should do some pr/advertising when the moriyamas are taking most of neil's wages. he wants to protect neil financially too yk.) since nicky would go to hell and back for andrew you know those contracts are waterproof when it comes to respecting all of andrew's boundaries (and giving him the permission to walk out if they're broken). but selfishly i'd also really like to see him as jeremy's agent. i think they'd have a lot of the same ideas/opinions regarding image and messaging and whatnot.

your turn now, tell me all about pr agent nicky!!

[canonicallyshort]

Oh, I'd love both of those options so much!!! I would also love to see him doing PR with a lot of exy players in Germany and becoming quite good at it, specially when dealing with queer players, out or otherwise.

Kevin, specially, is shocked when he tells them all he's pivoting to PR but Nicky argues that he can Not Be An Idiot Sometimes and there's no bigger proof of that than the fact that all of South Carolina and Stuttgart aren't aware of the Moriyamas whole...yeah.

(I also think Kevin might benefit from a PR agent who Knows him and knows just how important exy is to him)

[dustisus]

oughh imagine him being a pr agent in germany and gradually queer players start to gravitate towards him. at first it's one of his clients coming out to him (because nicky's been their agent for years atp and they know he won't spill, and bc nicky is out to them), bc they want to come out publically at some point or because they want a statement prepared if they're outed or whatever. but then nicky takes on a new client, who comes out to him after they've only met a couple of times. and then it keeps happening! and then finally that first client reveals that they've been recommending nicky to all the queer players they've met and nicky has to stop himself from tearing up in an umprofessional way

i also love the idea of kevin being like "you?? a pr agent?? pfft who'd hire you" only to see that nicky's clients get crazy campaigns, have incredinle social media presence and sell enough game jerseys to compete with him, kevin day. strangers recommend 'this pr agent, nicholas hemmick, have you heard of him?' like kevin's unfamiliar. finally when the contract with his other agent runs out he just hits nicky up like "please..."

(i can also see the moriyamas requiring some moriyama-approved/-affiliated pr agent to make sure that kevin, neil, and jean are making them as much money as possible, and then it becomes a game of "how do we let them know that this very good pr agent has known about the yakuza for like 10 years without having the yakuza kill my pr agent & friend")

lmao i’m reading this essay from the 1580s that mentions how if you were wearing a big elizabethan ruff and you got caught in the rain it would flip up in the wind and hit you in the face, and then you’d have to spend the rest of the day with your stupid soggy ruff all flaccid on your shoulders. can you imagine. whole new potentials for pathetic unlocked

All four stone in my Forest Floor series are done. Just thinking about mossy stones, dappled light on the forest floor, lichen, bark, leaves.

I had fun dressing up stones again.

Linen, cotton, wool and silk threads. River stones.

something something "the average country has 10000 prime ministers per election cycle" is a misconception. united kingdoms georg, which has had 10000 prime ministers since 2019, is an outlier and should have never been counted
