“I love you so much,” James crooned into Regulus’s ear. “More than anything else in the entire world. The universe. I would love you if you were—” James didn’t get to finish his vows as a mortified Regulus covered his mouth with his hand, and everyone gathered laughed quietly at the pair.
“I heard you practising, and I know where you’re going with this, and no one needs to hear the end of that sentence.”
James stood happily with Regulus’s hand over his mouth, his eyes crinkled and shining, showing his hidden smile.
“I love you,” James finished after Regulus had removed his hand.
“Yes, yes, I love you too,” Regulus grumbled, resisting the urge to roll his eyes.
“And with those beautiful sentiments, I pronounce you a wedded couple,” Mary said only slightly sarcastically. “You may kiss each other.”
The student of the Rito Champion walked over to Revali, with glasses on, pen and notepad in hand
Master Revali, the Zora have made a life-like statue of your image, made all from diamonds in your honour, They have been asking what you want it to have added or engraved on, what should I tell them?
With a slow gesture, Zhenn points to the very statue
They want to make it "as stunning as Revali himself", so what would you like?
Wh- AUUGH!!!
WHY would they DO THIS?!!!
No. No. Absolutely NOT.
Make them remove this IMMEDIATELY. I have never felt so offended!
This is entirely against everything being a Rito stands for. How dare they produce something so wastefully audacious in my image! I wouldn't even permit my OWN people to make a fuss like this. Worthless pomp - a shameful worship culture.
Tell them if they don't destroy it by nightfall then I will.
GAH. I am so furious. Go and fetch me some tea to calm down with.
revisiting my mortified tarot project alongside a reread so im paying actual attention to what kinds of crowns all the phantoms will get. something like this!
mortified is by @five-rivers and its so so so good :3 crown thoughts below the cut!
when doing the major arcana for the deck, i got the idea to decorate the "larger royal family" as it were (ie danny, jazz, the clones, dan, tucker, sam, and the ancients) with headpieces. halos for the ancients (with the same color as representing them on The Star) and crowns for the kids.
in my original concept, flowers sort of symbolized humanity, or maybe liminality, and so all liminals would get flower-based crowns. but it kinda ended up sounding more right to me that the flowers would just be for the main, more human gang, and the rest would have something less biological. previously, alongside the flowers already on dannys canon crown, i added living ones (maybe vaguely hellebores-inspired?). tucker wore a nemes patterned with wheat, jazz had a headband with a pomegranate flower, and sam wore a flower crown/wreath with the other three's plants, as well as some purple flowers and leaves.
this time, I decided the clones n dan would get headpieces using a stone centerpiece (and that way, dannys crown having some glass/stone elements looks like theirs, too). theyre no particular stones... well, except dan's, which is carnelian in my head. dustin's might just be ice. the symbols on each of them represent their associated ancient (a portal for nephthys, a compass rose for soujourn, a feather for pandora i guess whatever, lunar phases for nocturne, eyes for fright knight again im just kinda making this up, and a snowflake for frostbite. i guess this means i should scatter smoe glass gears around dannys crown, which isnt quite canon but whatever
for the other crowns not shown here, im specifying dannys crown flowers to be small poppies with petals in different shades of blue (which is the first kind of flower that was described in his lair), tucker keeps his nemes but it has blue and white lotuses blooming out of it (both being common treasures and votives in ancient egypt to my limited research, with blue lotus especially associated with funerals, rebirth, and the rising of the sun), and sam's flower crown being lots of different kinds of grasses and maybe boughs with violets (specifically viola reichenbachiana) scattered in. jazz's is pretty much unchanged, a headband with a pomegranate flower. not sure if i have a better idea for her lol
these appearances and outfits are not entirely but very much based on mar's art of them, specifically this old truce piece!
so yeaa !! :3 ty for reading. anyone can talk about this with me anytime
My mom, trying to be supportive of my asexuality and trying to explain what it means, "She's not interested in sex at all. She doesn't even like to mastubate."
Me, in my head: 😱😨🤯 "Oh god. OMG. Oh My Fucking God. Why would you tell someone that??? Why would you say that IN THE MIDDLE OF A RESTAURANT???
Ok. Breathe. It's ok. You have nothing to be ashamed of. And you trust this person not to be a biggot. They're one of "your people." They probably won't understand, but they'll accept you."
