how have you been? what have you been reading?
Hiiiiiii.
I’m doing good. Been super super busy at a new job and stress in life. Same old same old for someone still trying to adult in life.
As for reading. I’ve been rereading the “Divergent” series. Tears.
Also picked up some new book from “Warriors”, the cat series, does anyone remember those?!!!!
So yeah.
What about you? What books have you been reading?
What precisely is the function of a rubber duck?
Actually, fellow witch or wizard, im an Expert in muggle studies over here. A lot of us in the muggle studying community wish it were something more dramatic. Alas, some of the biggest mysteries just have simple answers. After years of research, myself, and many others in the community, have concluded that the rubber ducky is just a toy for the bath. sometimes they squeak, sometime they squirt water. The world may never really know except maybe muggles are just strange.
DO YOU HAVE INSTAGRAM SO I CAN CREDIT YOU? if not, I'll still credit your tumblr don't worry. Unless you're not okay with me reposting your art :)
What’s the Instagram handle you are posting too?
You can go ahead and credit back to my Tumblr. I don’t have an Instagram for my art. 🙃
Yo! I love how your did your bookshelf! If you don't mind me asking, what edition of Name of the Wind do you have ?? I haven't seen one that looks like that!
Aw thanks!
It’s the 10 year edition! I saw him last year at the 10th anniversary book signing here in Washington.
It had red page sides and a metallic gold cover.
He also said that if you had one f the old cover versions, that it’s actually worth a lot of money. 😂 like before the current cover. Crazy, huh?
Also I have like the original book too and then second one. But they are loaned out right now.
Any thoughts on the weirder ships of the Inheritance Cycle? (Oromis x Eragon, Rider x Dragon, Murtagh x Eragon, Durza x Arya, etc.)
Eh... not really. I never really considered it not looked into it honestly.
I mean I totally assume they are out there and I’m sure there is not shortage of Fics with those.
Each to their own canon and fantasies I guess. 😂
People see Arya as a Mary-Sue? I can't really see how. She's a deeply flawed character. I can see people not liking her, but I honestly can't see how the Mary-Sue title is warranted.
This goes back like way way in the beginning with the first two books. She has a wonderful character development in the last two.Basically the fandom 10-12 years ago all agreed that Arya was. She had the traits that follow a Mary-Su character: perfect features, perfect figure, perfect swordmanship skills, knew most languages, ect ect. It all follows the tropes of a Mary-Su persona. She was basically this character that could do no wrong.Now Im not saying shes a bad character, I def loved her by the end of the books, but initially when CP was writing her she didnt have a lot of depth to her. We didnt know enough about her except CP descriptions of how her hair was always perfect, her movements immaculate, her beauty and grace and ect ect. (Im sure he had a slight obsession with her hair.) Basically when we first met her, we just wanted more of her. We wanted to know her better and in the first two books you really dont feel a deep connection to her. (and she ends up being a significant character later on).BUT, The last book had me beaming and thumbs up that we do realize she has flaws and is kinda a human being. And I love her for that. <3
Who's your favorite character in the Inheritance Cycle? Who's your least favorite?
Hmmm. Well I have several favorites.
Angela is my first. I love her obsession with mushrooms and her quirky thoughts. (Also when she scolds Eragon about cursing Elva).
Kin Orrin would be my second. Although I hate how his persona changes in the last two books. When we first meet him he’s very sciencey and experimenting and I immediately loved him. But then war came and he became this bitter old man and blah blah. I mean understandable because he was a battle hardened warrior and Nasuada was very impulsive and he hated that and blah blah.
Arya, I know people where disgruntled with her may-sue like status and her coldness. But she warmed up more in Brisingr and I kinda liked that aloof demanour (its somewhat reflected me at that time). Her actions in the last two books warmed my heart and I really enjoyed her character development.
And Saphira, my proud self indulgent dragon. I love her. So self righteous and narcissistic but with a heart of gold and momma duck to Eragon.
Least Favorite:
Elva, Urg. I understand she had this curse and she was bitter and wanted nothing to do with the Varden after the curse was “lifted”, but her whole presence just irked me.
Birgit too. Like just leave Roran alone, please. It wasn’t technically Rowan’s fault. You just hold grudges.
The twins, the little slime balls. Hated them from the first scentence.
Trianna: don’t even get me started on her.
So you know the artist Ciruelo Cabral? Well I have is 2018 calendar and the picture for this month is a sea-dragon, for next month it's a picture of a blonde woman and dragon with the caption "was fire necessary?" and the picture for October is called Flame Light and now I kind of want to cry
I. ADORE. HIS. WORK.Actually his artwork is what inspired me to start drawing dragons. I need this calendar, pronto.
