ive been really enjoying act two of golden hour (im reading it alongside kingtheghast haha). i love the way act one built up like a crescendo the whole time, and every chapter of act two so far has just absolutely delighted me and im so excited to continue following along with this story. the symbolism and little details make me feel crazy in the best way--every time i notice something and it just clicks into place it's like winning a little prize.
really enjoying lorne as a character too. my camera roll is full of lorne screenshots. it's getting a bit ridiculous.
Thank you! I try to fit in as much foreshadowing and symbolism as I can because…. It entertains me lol. Sometimes an allusion so something I know is going to happen is just little private joke for me (until I get to the punchline…..)
Lorne is… a very interesting guy. Glad you like him!
daisy daisy daisy pspspspsps pls tell us a story abt the shadow knight and the southern councilman
sMACKS MY PAWS ON THE TABLE. WELL HELLOOOOO
Once upon a time, there was a Knight and a Councillor.
Serving the gracious Shadow Queen, Ser Ren the Loyal (or Ren the Dog, if you were ever the unfortunate to find yourself on the opposite end of his sword-- or at the edge of his teeth) is the head knight of the Shadow Brigade and Queen Lizzie’s personal knight. He’s stoic, a silent and cold figure always at the side of her bright and colourful Majesty. However, if you trust his fellow knights, you’d hear that he’s not all that intimidating as he portrays. He spends breaks on patrol telling magical stories to the village children, he leads energetic drinking songs in taverns, he’s a good man and even a better friend.
Operating in the Southlands Assembly, Councillor Martyn Littlewood is a man who rose into nobility. He was originally a messenger, who knew his vivid ways around the southern countries that were once separate. That is, until a war struck and he rose to the occasion and joined representatives from the four other southern kingdoms to form the Southlands. Councillor Littlewood is ever the cheery, as bright as the Sun Herself, cracking jokes with anyone from the highest noble to the lowest peasant. He’s everyone’s friend, and it’s easy to forget that he’s one of the five founders of the Southlands when he joins you for a tankard and asks you about your day.
...However, there’s something strange between them.
They don’t know what it is. It’s on the tip of their tongue, as their eyes meet from across a ballroom at the Shadowlands’ annual Winter Gala.
There’s an unmistakable draw they feel towards each other, when Councillor Littlewood can’t fight it any longer and follows it across the room, to where Ser Ren stands at attention beside Queen Lizzie. And Ren can’t deny it, either, when Martyn holds a hand out to him and asks him for a dance. However, after they break apart, after Ren returns to his Queen’s side and Martyn finds his Council once more, for whatever reason, they gravitate towards each other.
There’s a feeling. Of familiarity, of home, of a certain ancient comfort. Wanting to bury faces into shoulders during a dance. Hands that linger for just a few moments more. Spotting each other in the corner of their eyes, in the reflections of passing windows and rippling ponds.
It’s not long before they stop fighting the pulling feeling of fate. It’s agony and relief mixed into a single moment, when Ren’s hands hold Martyn’s face, slotting together like two pieces of a long lost puzzle. When suddenly the cold loneliness that engulfed them for the past few months lifts from their shoulders. When their racing hearts swell so large that they can hardly catch their breaths.
But alas, Martyn is a Councilman, and Ren a knight, and the fear of being found with a man from an opposing faction pulls them apart once more. They never go far, though.
is phineas and/or ferb a blorbo. do they count as blorbos? i don’t know how to identify the features of a blorbo. if nothing else that dancing phineas gif has blorbo energy i think. (also hi this is beans btw idk if u know my main LMAO)
Bean beloved hello!!!!
Yeah I think Phineas counts as a blorbo especially compared to how much I draw other pnf characters. Anyway I’ve decided you get a prize: old Phineas sketches. And an Isabella
(the first one says “the laws of physics? I say heresy! Scientific anarchy!”)
HEY thank you for all the work u put into making those rtvs highlight vids, people like you are the backbone of modern society. like atlas holding up the sky except it’s funny twitch streamers. also the thumbnail drawings you do always look so nice!!
“Reigen Arataka is starting to suspect that maybe he's had a curse put on him at some point. One that attracts other transgender people. Like magnets, or something.
If it was meant to be a curse, though, it'd backfired - he was pretty sure you weren't supposed to be grateful for curses.

A series of little stories set in an alternate universe where a lot of the cast is trans/gender-nonconforming! This isn't a series of headcanons that fit within the established source material - this is a retelling of the story in little ways so I can write self-indulgent trans content with some of my favorite characters.
Some characters retain their canon gender, but some don't, and these chapters aren't necessarily in chronological order. All take place within the same AU, though.
Hope y’all enjoy reading as much as I enjoyed writing!”
