Elven word of the day, 407/?

Qualmisan from early Quenya

It’s a name for Tuesday but it literally means the day of the agony of death.

This is derived from qualmë meaning death agony and sana, an archaic word for day

Apparently Tuesday was quite a morbid day for Tolkien or his elves because in addition to that, Tuesday was also called Fuinen, in honor of an abandoned name for Nienna meaning death goddess.

Aldúya meaning day of the trees was the most commonly used name for Tuesday in Quenya and Orgaladh meaning the same is the most commonly used name in Sindarin.

So if you ever have a bad Tuesday, as I frequently do, here’s something.

There it is, a triptych of my favorite duels from each season, and coincidentally my favorite characters.

Clare ready to fight in Claymore, The Battle of the North

[sheofthefaintsmile]

Maybe the reason Miria has been sent to a hopeless battle in the North has less to do with her Awakening and more with the fact that she has caused too many Awakenings (TM) among the younger warriors at the Organisation....

Hi everyone,

so after consuming a very unhealthy amount of asmr / audio role-plays, I wrote a script with an idea I had bouncing in my head (blame my reading of The Way of Kings and my frustration about how Jasnah Kholin was developed)

I had posted the script and the lovely IslesAudio filled it out perfectly. I really like the voice and the intonation, it was exactly how I had imagined it.

So if you're into that sort of things, please consider giving it a listen (it's 8 minutes long)

[sheofthefaintsmile]

It's a little different from my usual content but I'm writing a little YT series and the second episode just dropped so if you feel like listening to a princess having the slowest ever Gay Awakening, feel free to click on the link!

Anthy Himemiya & Utena Tenjou - Utena, la fillette révolutionnaire

The two pieces brought together. I got a bit lazy and reused some framing elements I’d already painted for another rgu fanart. I’m calling this one “The Armor was a Lie.”

Once again, here’s a version with Anthy’s glasses
