Up the Villi

Our intestine's surface is intricately folded into projections called villi – where absorption of nutrients occurs. Creating folds as the gut develops comes from cells of the sub-surface curving neighbouring tissue via a solid to fluid-like process that conceptually resembles water dewetting from a hydrophobic surface

Sparkle HSR, Moirai LibraryRuina, and Villi from my ocs are all examples of crab evolution.

this post prompted by the fact that I wanna do one of those inspiration boards for Villi but I don't actually remember what all inspired her, and a lot of the characters I could put on there that would immediately convey her vibes, she actually predates*.

*either predates my first encounter with those characters or predates the character outright.

Norsery Rhymes from A to Z Happy Thorsday - Blainn, of the Blue Black Skull (Ymir)

Well here we are another Thor’s Day and another 20 min sketch of a Norse (and Germanic, sometimes Celtic) mythological character.  This week it’s Blainn, the “Blue and Black Skull”, (Ymir, Bainn, Aurgelmir “Roar of the Wet Sand”, Brimir “the bloody moisture“) the original Giant (Jotnar/Jotun). The primeval being and ancestor of all Jotun and so also many Aesir and Vanier Like Loki and Thor.  Also selfish and lazy and destined to get killed by Odin and his brothers Vili and Ve, so they could use his body to make the worlds. As apart from cold and heat and the place that they meet where he was formed, he was all of the matter in the world.  Not counting the giants and monsters he was sweating out, the Aesir that were revealed in the ice, and of course the Primeval cow Audhumla and her rivers of milk, that was the second creature formed of the heat and ice as Ymir was. Blainn seems more of a title that a name, as it describes the inside of his skull once it’s thrown into the sky to create the roof of the worlds. Blue in the day when the sun illuminates it, and Black with Flaming rocks from Muspelheim thrown up there as stars at night.

For a more detailed and longer story about this you can check out my earlier telling for Aurgelmir, another name for Blainn / Ymir at the link here. https://jeffreystewart.tumblr.com/post/172625799574/happy-thorsday-aurgelmir-ymir-well-here-we
