Too Many Stories, Not Enough Time @silvercaptain24 - Tumblr Blog

Introduction

Hello! Call me Silver, or Cap, or Silv, or Swallow -- whatever nickname you like, idc and I'm not picky.

No NSFW, please.

Non-denominational Christian, but I'm not here for hate, fighting, or politics. Just don't. I'm here to have fun and be around people who like the same sort of things I do. This includes leaving me out of fandom drama stuff.

Fandoms and blorbos: There's too many! Somehow, my biggest one right now is Kpop, but other interests will still pop up every once in a while. If a character is blonde, a pathetic wet cat of a man, needs therapy, or is just baby -- that's probably my blorbo.

At one point in time I had a Masterlist of fics. That failed immediately cause I never updated it... 98% of my writing can be found on my Ao3 -- there's one or two things I might experiment with being just on tumblr in the future, however. On Tumblr, my writing tag is #Silver Writes.

Every once and a while I'll do art - that gets tagged with #Silver does art???

Nicknames will, in fact, happen. Unless you are extremely opposed, in which case let me know. DM's are closed to people who aren't moots -- please don't get huffy, that's a personal thing. I'm glad to talk to new people, but I much prefer asks for things like that.

#Silver Rambles is my vent tag, please feel to block, I'll usually also couple it with the #vent tag.

Part of the Hurricane Family, which means too many siblings and kiddos to count, so I'm not even gonna try to tag 😅 Y'all know who you are 💙

Any blorbo bedtime happenings with @anadorablekiwi and @onceuponaladye don't get tagged - mostly because I'm bad at tagging anyways and it's usually late when they happen.

Asks are still being wacky -- I'll usually get them, but every once and a while they still get eaten.

silly-little-arson-frog-offical

I am not part of the project hail mary fandom and know nothing about it, yet it's all over my feed. Here's what I've gathered so far:

mc is a sassy middle aged science teacher who would both kill/die(?) for his friends, but would also trade them for a snickers purely for the love of the game. would rather shave his head than kiss someone

mc looks like he did crack in college and would probably throw hands with his 86 y/o professor for forcing certain beliefs in the classroom. he would lose and whine about it.

there's a silly little rock thing that is really good friends with the mc and has very little understanding of exactly how humans work. would panic if it saw synchronized swimming

they're in space I think. maybe.

silly little rock has a big silly green rock partner

there's a girl and I think she would sell mc for loose pocket change and an oreo

is this at all accurate

#…you’re. I.#I despite the way you said this(/j /lh) BUT YOURE NOT WRONG

jack-the-fool

Rocky: Grace say Hail Mary archives have all Human media yet Rocky still cannot find classic film Goncharov for movie night statment.

Grace: ....What?

Rocky: Grace not know own earth greatest mafia movie ever made question?

Grace: .......

Grace: What?

Have seen a whole lot of this talked about but I've been playing a lot of Hyrule Warriors lately and it got me thinking about the short amount of time Warriors was on skyloft. Just like his own soldiers and everyone else in the War, Warriors probably spent a lot of time with the current knights of Skyloft. He probably got really close to some of them too while he was there.

And ya know who was probably one of those knights?

Sky's dad

Cue my new headcannon that Warriors actually knew Sky's dad from the war. And after it's all over, PapaSky goes back home to his pregnant wife, deciding to name his child after the Hero he just fought alongside in hopes that his kid will grow up to be just as kind and courageous as that Captain.

(or the tragic route in which PapaSky dies in battle and Warriors has to be the one to tell his pregnant wife the news. Eitherway, Sky is named after Warriors and no one knows)

bokettochild

well now I'm obsessed!

imagine the boys end up in Skyview village at some point in their adventure, and yeah, of course, it's cool and the younger ones are exploring (and dragging around Legend) and the older ones are kinda just looking around because this isn't THAT far in their past

And then someone stops them, calls out "Captain Link?" and it's just some skyloftian knight who's since retired, who's settled down now that they've come to the surface and who maybe Sky grew up around, knowing the guy worked with his dad

And of course Warriors responds, because he's a soldier and anyone addressing him by rank usually means he ought to respond. It take a second, of course it does, because the man's twenty-some-odd years older than he was, but then it clicks and Warriors' face is breaking into a smile and he calls the man by name, greet him, asks how he's doing?

And before they know it, all the old guard is gathered around, some with their own kids, some with grandchildren, all wanting them to meet the man who led them in combat against a demon and a dragon all those years ago, who became their captain too, if only for a while, because Skyloft wasn't prepared for war at the time.

There's questions, wonder too; how is he still so young? Did the war end? Who won? What brings him back here? And on it goes.

And Wars is thrilled. Sure, yes, this era was arguably one of the more traumatizing ones he went to, the first time he realized his own men could and would turn on him, but the knights of Skyloft never did, and there's a comradely between them that he didn't get in his own era, in a world where he's Helen of Troy rather than the Achilles that the Skyloftians see him as. So yeah, he's loosening up and bateringa ND answering questions

And then it comes up.

That one fallen soldier, the guy Warriors couldn't save, the one who he personally sought out the family of because he knew in his heart of hearts that he had to do it. How's the guy's wife? She was expecting, right? What became of the kid, how's he getting along?

And thats when one of them notices Sky standing there wit the rest of the heroes, maybe grabs him and tugs him over- he's an old student to many of them, and again, he grew up around them, so no one thinks anything of it. except then they're crowing about how "she named him after you, Cap! And he's the hero now, saved the goddess and everything!" And they've got stories, do they ever have stories! They're eager to share the work of their own hero with the one who fought beside them and saved them all those years ago.

And all the while, Sky and Wars are just sort of staring at each other, realization sinking in that Wars knew Sky's dad, a man that the chosen hero never met. They were friends even, brothers in arms maybe.

And Sky is named after Wars.

Sky wouldn't be alive today if Wars and his soldiers hadn't arrived on Skyloft when they did to fight of Ghirahim and Volga before the islands could be destroyed.

Neither says anything about it, not then, but there's a sort of wonder stirring up inside them every time they think about it, every time they realize how much of an impact their lives have directly had on one another, and how, in a crazy twist of fate, neither one of them would exist without the other.

It's a powerful sort of thing to think about, really.

Hi mod I appreciate your hard work <3 i love this blog very much but I don't have what it takes to mod something like this

Anyway my question is: if you live in a place without well optimized public transit or without public transit at all, do you think people would regularly ride the public transit more, and ride it regularly, if a canal was installed and made to be the most convenient public transit option in your area?

- yes, but people would get bored of it quickly

- yes, and it'd stay a popular choice

- no, cars and walking would still be more convenient

- no, even if the buses and trains aren't well optimized they'd still be more popular

- I live in a place with excellent public transit/and or canals :)

Wars tends to raise both of his hands a lot. During the comic he does it many times and even in the last art he's doing it.

I think it's cute. For a war captain, to always show a gesture of "giving up" is hard to think. I like to think that it's Wars' way to say "I want you to hear me. Look, I'm yielding to you" but also with a spark of "I trust you. I know you won't hurt me".

If we combine it with the fanon it makes it even more cute. His life was too compromised, he was always attacked and he never got the chance to be weak, but now he's fine being "weak" with his brothers because he trusts them. He knows his life is not in danger so he makes himself "small" and that's ok with him.

just saw a 'comments' tab on someones blog you know where the following and likes tabs would be if enabled and it was just showing all the replies theyve made on peoples posts. this is fascinating when did this feature come out

parakeet

EMERGENCY - ITS AUTO ENABLED!

if you've made replies on posts there is now a tab on your blog showing every post youve replied to and your reply.

if this is not what you want, either go to your blog and click comments and disable it from there or just go to your individual blogs setting pages. just change it from blue to grey if you dont want everyone to see your replies AND the post you're replying to

PLEASE BE ADVISED that it is set to disabled for blogs that have not made any replies but it will turn ON if you reply with that blog in the future.! i just tested it with my main, which was greyed out but it turned on the moment i left a test reply

figured i'd get the word out bc i have not seen a single mention of this and i'm sure there are plenty of people who maybe comment on things they don't want on display for everyone to see on their blog lol. you can still look at your replies with it toggled off just no one else can, like locking the following and likes list

parakeet

so for some reason this feature was actually announced on the tumblr engineering blog. interesting choice not to reblog it to the staff or tumblr blog, esp considering they asked for user input on how to implement it, but i suppose considering the response to the last update maybe the replies would be too overwhelming...

so couple of clarifications. comments are disabled as default for primary blogs that have their likes disabled. they are seemingly enabled for all other blogs that have replied to posts

posts you comment on may show on your followers 'for you' page if you leave your replies publically available. they may, in the future, show in on your followers dashboard if your follower goes to their dash settings and enables this. apparently, if your likes are enabled, your followers can already see those on the dash if they've gone into preferences and selected to do so, which I was unaware of, and that seems to be disabled at default, but it's possible i disabled it previously and forgot about it ig

Being smart enough to know when to consult and listen to someone more knowledgeable is in fact quite smart! Many humans cannot manage this!
