My friends and I used to do this thing where we'd dress up on a theme and go do something totally normal.
We dressed up as pirates and went bowling.
We dressed as vikings and went to the grocery store. The security guard told us we had to move our longship because it was illegally parked.
We dressed as Romans and went to Blockbuster. The staff chanted, "toga! Toga! Toga!" at us.
We dressed up all steampunk and went to the museum. Tourists kept taking our picture.
I think that Fiyero uses “Winkie” in the movie because he wants to adapt better in the environment, he is clearly not who he lets everyone see, the only one that knows him is Fae
Exactly, he knows it’s the term that they use, and if he started saying he was a Vinkun prince they’d be like ??
He’s a chameleon he knows how to adapt and change to fit in the environment he’s in. He doesn’t want to stick out in a way like Elphaba does. He blends in but also has eyes on him because he’s handsome and smooth.
interpreting the wizard of oz through the lense of the backstories the characters are given in wicked does leave room for the possibility that the scarecrow, the tin man, and the cowardly lion are having some truly wild conversations behind dorothy's back during their little trip
I made the sides into doors from Encanto
This took a literal week but it was fun doing them!
Thank you @ros_poz2 for helping me with some of the designs :)
Also, Happy New Year!!! :D
In regards of the Trump government scraping all trans inclusion in its queer information portion of its websites I have made this thing. Spread the word. Don't let them pretend we never existed.
P.S: Don't like! Reblog! <3
not wanting to be outdone by the benders in the gang, sokka invents the flamethrower, the supersoaker, the leaf blower, and the concept of throwing rocks at people
Toddler’s cries that grow louder and louder Relishing in untestable power Glowing red in a black and white scene, The one and only: Candle Queen
I’ve always wanted to make a Draw This in Your Style type thing? So if you want to try your hand at it, that would be awesome! Either way I had one hell of a good time making this and listening to the song over and over. X3
I’m never going to write this but I am so very intrigued by the concept of platonic!Jeyna in Tartarus and thought you guys might appreciate so:
-No idea what exactly the context here is but Reyna ends up following the Seven across the ocean a bit sooner than she does in canon and helps out during the end of MoA and she’s the one who ends up dangling over Tartarus
-And yes it absolutely has to be Jason coming to Reyna’s aid for the fall. Because it’s already established she’d do anything for him. She crossed an ocean for him in canon. But Jason’s whole thing since this all started has been that he chose Leo and Piper over Reyna/CHB over Camp Jupiter (or at least it felt that way to her). Their shared home isn’t his priority anymore. She isn’t his priority. She hasn’t been since he disappeared. She’s not expecting him to come to her aid.
-When she orders him to drop her, she expects him to listen like the proper Roman soldier that he should be. And then he doesn’t.
-There’s something very intriguing to me about the concept of “your only way to survive this situation is to trust a person with your life who you’re aware you’ve loved forever but who you don’t really know anymore”
-All his trust in her is muscle memory and all her trust in him is linked to a version of him that no longer exists. Least convenient place to get to know each other again!
Not super many thoughts on scenes but I do have two in mind:
1) at one point Reyna moves during a fight to cover Jason in a way that would have worked with CJ Jason but doesn’t with this one because his fighting style is more a mix of Greek and Roman now and one of them ends up hurt because of it
2) Jason is the one dealing with Akhlys and it startles Reyna really badly because she knows Jason goes off when necessary but seeing him so fiercely protective of her specifically in a way where he’s lost control entirely is both terrifying and pulling her right back to the moment when she killed her dad to protect Hylla. Potentially the thing that stops him is Reyna also losing control of her powers and having her terror bleed over into him.
I replayed blessed are the peacemakers the other night and had a radical idea,,
What if Micah coordimated the parley with the o'driscolls, specifically to get Arthur out of the way? He's definitely not above it, and he's definitely clever enough to pull it off.
See like, Dutch aside, I think Micah is jealous of Arthur. Arthur is considered one of the most, if not /the/ most capable members of the gang. They respect his opinion on things and usually follow his lead without much fuss. They invite him to take a load off, sit by the fire and have a drink. The girls invite him to chat. He has an easy camaraderie with the rest of the gang.
Contrast this with Micah, who seems constantly at odds with everyone. Crazy homicidal tendencies aside, he does seem to want a connection with at least some of the gang. He'll sit by the fire and tell a story. He'll try to talk to the women, who brush him off with disdain or scorn. His sense of humor is fucked 9 ways to Sunday, so most of his "jokes" involve blatant sexism/racism, or he's just otherwise cruel (though I think his cruelty is half him lashing out, half him being cruel for the sake of it)
Half of the gangs rejection has to do with him just being a shitty person, but I think Arthur's attitude also plays a big part. Arthur makes no effort to hide his feelings about the man. He doesn't like him, he'd wish he'd get gone, he only tolerates him bc Dutch, ect. And because Arthur doesn't like him, the rest of the gang, subconsciously or not, follows his lead. I say this because you also have a man like Williamson, who is racist and filthy and a drunk, and yet because Arthur doesn't outright hate him, the rest of the gang tolerates him well enough.
And then there's Dutch. If there's anyone's opinion, anyone's esteem Micah truly wants to be held high in, it's Dutch's. And yet again Arthur stands in the way of this, at least in the early chapters. When Dutch wants something done, he sends Arthur. When Dutch wants to take a load off and fool around, he fucks off with Arthur and Hosea. On the rare occasions that Arthur offers his opinions on things, Dutch takes it into consideration, even if he ultimately does whatever he wants anyways. And oh I just know that Micah was stewing over the fact that the gang moved camp to Clemens Point, the place that Arthur and Charles found, instead of Dewberry Creek, the place he suggested.
All in all, Micah is envious of Arthur's place in the gang. He wants that for himself. Ultimately he manipulates his way to Dutch's right hand, but before he got to that point, he may have figured the best way to the top was to simply remove the competition.
So he runs into a few stray Odriscolls and instead of killing them, urges them to pass a message along to Colm. He plants the idea of kidnapping Arthur to lure the gang out, except he was never planning on turning them in, at least not yet. He has them suggest the meeting via Pearson to avoid arousing suspicion, though he throws his weight behind Pearson to make sure everything falls into place.
All so that Arthur when fails to meet them at the fork in the road after the parley, he can convince Dutch that it's fine, he probably saw some pretty buck or damsel in distress and went after it, you know how he is, he'll turn up.
All the while betting on the fact that Colm will eventually get tired of waiting for the rescue and just kill Arthur and be done with it. And with him out of the way, Micah can finally secure some authority within the gang.
When Jason Grace wakes up, he's surrounded by friends. He's holding hands with a beautiful girl who says that they're in love, and there’s a boy with a wild grin who says they’re best friends. Jason doesn’t know what’s going on, but he knows he's surrounded by people who care for him and want to help him.
When Percy Jackson wakes up, he's almost completely alone. His only connection is a wolf that seems to be judging his every move as it decides his worth. He's fighting for his life and desperately searching to find a place that would take him in and accept him.
When Jason and Percy were switched, they didn't just have their physical selves swapped. They had their lives swapped. Jason got to believe that someone loved him, and Percy got to experience what it was like to have no one.
