i think actually everybody in that situation was wrong because if we're taking it to a specific location, mr. transport should be brought to the london transport museum. clearly we shouldn't let the fact that the london transport museum didn't exist until 1980 get in the way of this. this is its home now. i mean look it's in the name. and it's in london. it has trains and everything. it's perfect

thank you archive.org for having a shitton of old woodcuts i can use for this

zzoup post

so a whole bunch of people have made zzoup/made recipes for zzoup and im gonna compile the list here so you can pick which one you want and/or mix and match to make your own

the original recipe as it is in fallen london’s item description: Winewound chanterelles, exile’s rose, paprika, pork stock, lament-onions, hanged men’s tears, salt.

this one by the gluttonous geek uses two types of paprika and takes inspiration from hungarian mushroom soup

this one from the reddit by u/Franklin_Bancroft apparently burns all the way down

this one on tumblr includes bacon

this one on the forums that i distinctly remember and also goes all in on the roses

enjoy your zzoup adventurez, delicious friends!

Doctor Marco knew the Masters were callous. That was no secret. But they expected the Masters to at least be resourceful enough to know how to protect London in it's time of need.

But instead, the Masters turned their back on London. They shut themselves behind closed doors and waited for the City to die so they could move on to the next.

And the worst part? The Londoners beat the threat on their own. Certainly, the Starved Men were strange and terrifying, but they were by no means unbeatable. Without the help of Masters, the Empress, or even the Devils, London defeated the Starved Men. The threat that the great, mysterious and powerful Masters didn't even TRY to face was beaten by the common people banding together.

Perhaps Doctor Marco was being unfair. Perhaps, once the Starved Men's language was successfully translated and their motives ascertained, it would become clear why the Devils and Masters were so afraid.

But the most likely explanation? The Masters and the Devils were not merely callous: They were cowards. Cowards and fools who ran from a completely fallible opponent.

The Masters When There's A Threat To The City:

From the Fallen London subreddit

i dont know if this is just a me thing, but does anyone else with their fl/motr/sskies/ssea ocs assign them certain things like colours, recurring motif, animals, etc?

to me, it keeps them separate and unique even if there is overlap between themes, animals, colours and such.

@theramblingvoid IM GLAD IM NOT THE ONLY ONE.

i love this little ramble so much its inspiring me to talk about my failbetter universe (that's how I'm talking about it) ocs but i feel that i will overshadow others.

what this fandom needs

What fandom, you ask? All of them. There’s not enough in any fandom.

Finished drawing my character designs/ line up of the Light Fingers Crew to formalize my drawing of them

Overview/ Design talk under the cut if anyone is interested in that sort of thing

if anyone wants to know where the two ive found are so far im putting them under the cut

two more

found one at ms chapmans, and if godfall has nothing I'll start seeking

i went to chapmans and couldnt find anything, how do you get the one there?

you have to have completed the quest where you explore mrs chapman's house until she takes notice of you; after you do that she will invite you to tea and discuss the ongoing event with you

Watch out, they're arm-ed!!!!!

this is OUR city, its bent and fractured and not always good or kind, but its OURS and YOU CAN'T TAKE IT
