Reckless Acts Of Kindness

Just a girl that loves dragons and fantasy. I'm really really scattered and may not remember to tag things, especially if it's an obscure trigger. Follow at your own risk. I try to tag discourse and controversy as politics or drama.

Please reblog if you vote. I will attempt to draw the animal when the poll closes

Thank you all for voting, and sorry to everyone in advanced. I probably should have put more emphasis on the word "try" in my original post. I am not very good at art. I hope you will still accept our scrunkly little animal even if I lack the skills to make him look very good

POV you’re the king and i just made an inappropriate joke about your virility in front of the whole royal court and you want to punish me but you can’t react in anger lest the court think my joke is true

thank you all for understanding my vision

I already posted this on Twitter, but I figured I should put it here as well! My mockup for what the pause menu might look like with femc. Instead of water, I went with a pink sky.

There's an etiquette to typo roasting. Like if they type "on" instead of "in" you overlook that. That's some autocorrect bs. But if they type "pebis" or some shit that's when you gotta get his ass

why do only children's and fantasy books have illustrations. what crime did other readers commit that the industry decided we weren't worthy of lil drawings

pros of illustrating adult/literary fiction:

- more employment for illustrators

- cool abstract art that conveys vibes

- i like picture

cons:

- ????

The con is book publishers would have to pay illustrators, that's likely why we don't have it.

Oh is that why you were fighting Thunder? That's why? You were fighting over territory? You did this? You did this too? You're equally responsible for this?

Were you fighting over territory when you called for a peaceful meeting to discuss borders and then Clear Sky told you that you shouldn't exist and chased your entire group up a rock and threatened to rip you all into bloody pieces? That was you fighting? You were fighting for territory when you grabbed reinforcements to save them and Clear Sky said, "if you want them come get them?"

Gray Wing didn't deepthroat Clear Sky's tail far enough and that means you also did this? Is that so? Is that how it is?

The writers don't even read the fucking books they write, we are now reading an alternate universe where the first three installments of DOTC don't exist. So forget everything you've seen so far! POOF! It's gone! A plume of smoke in the wind!

no you weren't you stopped by two different cats as you tried to run and save Gray Wing, who WAS fighting him

Oh my god. Is this why everyone thinks Thunder and Clear Sky fought in the First Battle?? Because they read this line and don't remember the book before it?!

Yes.

You did this, and no one else. No one else did this. You are the reason this happened.

wow i cant wait for this to result in lasting changes to his behavior and this battle resulting in the loss of the constant ass kissing from the family he's been abusing for 3 books--

FOR FUCK'S SAKE

THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY WROTE IN THE PAST 3 BOOKS

THIS ISN'T A SMALL MISTAKE, RAINSWEPT FLOWER'S COLDBLOODED MURDER WAS WHAT PROMPTED GRAY WING AND CLEAR SKY TO FIGHT, WHICH LEAD TO THE BATTLE ENDING

WHO WROTE THIS???????? THIS IS A COMPLETELY NEW REALITY

“Baikal Zen”: Rocks that have fallen on the ice of Lake Baikal are heated by sunlight and emit infrared rays that melt the ice below. Once the sun is gone, the ice becomes solid again, creating a small support for the rock above.

scrolling down I was like “oh what a cool idea! someone skipped stones on a lake and took high speed photographs to get these pictures where it looks like the water is holding up the stone which is kinda was does happen a-oh, no. nope. it’s just Fucking Lake Baikal up to its god defying nonsense again”

i think all quiet on the western front and the lord of the rings are in direct conversation with each other, as in theyre the retelling of the same war with one saying here’s what happened, we all died, and it did not matter at all and another going hush little boy, of course we won, of course your friends came back

someone should remake lord of the rings as a grandfather telling a fantasy story to his grand child with flashbacks to world war one showing the dead boys and men the characters were based on. grandpa why didn’t they just fly. because they didn’t. they didn’t.

i’m fine

I will never get over how Tolkien & Lewis took the horrors of war and spun them into fantasy.

Shivering in the trenches dreaming of cozy hobbit holes, shaking as bombs pockmark a forest and imagining each shallow mud-filled crater contains a new world—that maybe there are still as many beautiful things in the universe as there are bombs—that maybe the world is bigger than this moment and this ugliness and one day this will be a peaceful forest again full of small ponds.

I mean look at these photos of the shell craters in Sanctuary Woods, near Ypres Belgium and tell me it’s not the Wood Between The Worlds:

tired of "aspec coded" characters that are only aspec coded bc they're so dedicated to their work. what abt the aspecs that don't do shit. what about lazy aspec representation
