I wanted to draw an emo Orion from the third book
Okay but if the Deadly Education movie does get made, it needs:
all the characters to be dressed in ragged gross overworn clothes. their shirts have holes and stains and their oversized drawstring pants have sloppily sewn extensions and patches
Make these kids look like Disney channel kids surviving a 90's zombie apocalypse
maybe it's just El's unreliable narration + denial about feelings for Orion, but please do not cast an airbrushed heartthrob
Orion is weird and needs a haircut and has a beaky nose, please let him look like a normal person
I would take it as a personal favor if El is permitted to snark via constant voiceover narration
Particularly if her narration directly contradicts what she's doing
'I was too busy with homework to think or do anything else' *staring across the cafeteria at Orion*
Plenty of scenes of El, Aadhya, and Liu hanging out!
Please let El call Orion an absolute aardvark on screen
Imagining what El Higgins would look like
It's been several weeks since I read The Golden Enclaves and I occasionally still think about how Liesel looked at El and went "well, I have to seduce her, for the good of humanity, in case I need to use my wiles to pull her back from self-sacrifice and/or madness."

The Scholomance in Minecraft
So after finishing the second read through of the series, I decided I wanted to get a true feeling for the scale of the place and the first thing I had to do so was Minecraft. So I've been working on it for a while and I'd figure I'd share some of the results.
Three things to keep in mind:
This is Minecraft Java Edition, unmodded, no texture packs. There are somethings it just cannot do, or do so in a nice way, like angles and circles.
I based it on the illustrations in the book more than the text and those don't match as much as you might think. Thus this is not book accurate, and not super accurate to the illustrations either.
It's not done, not by a long shot. Most of what you'll see are mock ups and samples of the overall structure. It's way, WAY too big to do more than that.
With that, I present the Scholomance, done in Minecraft.
this is fucking insane i love it
New meme format just dropped!
Itâs too perfect
druid leader: we noticed you never call your servant by his true name
arthur, slowly like he's speaking to a toddler: you mean merlin? pretty sure merlin only has one true name and that name is merlin
merlin, sweating profusely: maybe we should just go?
druid leader: no, i meant his true name
druid leader: emrys
arthur: look, i know what you meant, i've heard it more than enough from you people. you don't get to say it and neither do i and honestly how dare you
merlin, looking like he's about to faint: what
arthur: so no, i won't call merlin by his deadnameâ
ur first and last recent emojis are ur gender now. mine is đ ąđ¨ââ¤âđâđ¨

remind me to write an essay on the reasons gabriel/annalise/Nathan are 200% better as a throuple
LISTEN TO ME
the point of nathans character is
a) finding his own identity as a blood growing up with fains
b) bridging the gap between the two groups.
the same way he doesnât have to pick a side, he doesnât have pick one of them. itâs both of them. it can be both of them because the relationship he has with both of them (people and groups of fairies) are different but not inferior to the other
annaliseâs arc is detaching herself from the fain community long enough to see that bloods are equal to them/not the cause of the war. IS IT NOT perfection for her to fall for nathan (claiming he couldnât be a blood because heâs too good of a person, so in spite of the fact that he might be one) and then for gabriel (regardless of the fact that heâs a blood, because sheâs realized that it influences his personhood 0%)
gabriel as a character is a lot more detached from the politics of the show so it doesnât relate to the plot specifically but more so his personal issues. heâs all alone except for a handful of friends that very easily turn against him, never fully tying himself to anyone. the way that he bonded with annalise and nathan is special because heâs never had that before, never had anyone to go back for. when he talks to his ex, he gives him the line âsomeday youâll have to see something throughâ and when gabriel says it back, he doesnât say it to one of them. annalise is the one who asks, but he looks at both of them in the eyes before replying. he has to see this thing through. with both of them because theyâve both become part of his inner circle, the people heâs chosen
apart from the way the relationship adds to their personal arcs there is just. the funsies of the way they work as a trio
nathan and annalise have the sweet friendship to lovers. they know each other and have cemented theyâll stay by each others side. itâs something they needed to be able to go through the first couple of episodes and stay sane, that foundation of having something to fall back on.
adding Gabriel to the mix adds a healthy dose of lightheartedness to their interactions though. gabriel has gone through his own shit and heâs learned his attitude of nonchalance and poking fun at his misfortunes which the guys desperately need by the time they reach him. especially the gabriel/annalise bickering!! its fun and entertaining, especially considering nathan does absolutely nothing but get amused by them rather than try and resolve anything. but especially because it could be so much deeper than it is (ie hate each other because of politics) but itâs not. they just find each other the perfect level of annoying.
itâs embodied perfectly in the scene where she buys him the lighter. sheâs genuinely trying to get in his good graces, heâs just. being annoying. âI didnât say I didnât want it I said Iâm ungratefulâ. he appreciates the gesture, since Iâm sure he actually cared about the lighter, but he wonât let it on. just to keep things interesting
and itâs perfect because they always manage to make you see how it really is all surface level crap. when theyâre crushing the fain to death before the giving ritual, gabriel takes her hand because he realizes how hard it is for her and because he doesnât actually want anything but the best for her. and annalise letâs him!! because her care for him has been masked but it has been there, and she can actually accept comfort from him.
nathan and gabrielâs chemistry and likability is not something to explain I donât think so I guess my last point is. their trio moments just hit different. they always seem to happen when stakes are highest and/or one of them just nearly died and itâs reason they all feel so much more honest and real.
I know people are already using the scene after Annalise removes the poison from Nathan as a him holding his hand over annalise but. so clearly it is a scene for the three of them. in the chaos and panic, gabriel encourages and believes in annalise. when nathan comes back to, he hugs her because heâs important to him and takes Gabrielâs hand for the same reason. itâs such a moment of the three of them coming out unscathed, I only wish you could see gabriel and annalise also holding hands
the scene after gabriel comes back for them at the bar. he goes back for both of them, and they both go back for him when they hear him outside their door. itâs nathan to pull the guy off, but annalise to check on him. itâs then gabriel to hold nathan back, and annalise to ground him. they all work as a group to move forward, and those moments are not of two of the people only. itâs all of them
the same goes for ep 8, finding annalise again as jessica is tormenting her. my girlie has had one hell of a night, and both nathan and gabriel reach for her at the same time. gabrielâs line is âweâre hereâ. both of them.
and finally the last scene. again, itâs each of them going back for the others. gabriel knocks soul down, but itâs annalise who saves them both from soul. most immediately Gabriel, but itâs about the entire situation. theyâve become her people, âIâll spend the rest of my life thinking about youâ. she canât bare to see them threatened or hurt, and soul is only the shell of her father. so she makes her choice
obviously i will be buying them
Thinking about how everyone thought El was the monster and Orion was the hero, but El was the hero born to balance Orion's (forced) monstrosity, then freely became a hero proper
And even when they realized Orion was the monster, El refused to let him remain one and demanded he become the hero he'd always wanted to be
And herself submitted to the prophecy she'd always feared, but instead of it making her the monster she'd always feared?? She was doing it for good?? Becoming the secret hero instead of the infamous villain she dreaded??
Orion: *pointing at El* this is my girlfriend
Orion: *pointing at Leisel* this is my girlfriendâs girlfriend
Orion: *pointing at Alfie* and this is my girlfriendâs girlfriendâs boyfriend.
