Just wanted to say that @hiromicota.bsky.social and I are working on so many amazing things for Scion 3E, as the devs of this new edition. Yes, beyond the core. Even beyond the plans we have for future books. Things are happening and will happen. Just wait and see.

We'll have to see how the core does and keep our fingers crossed for more, but Hiromi and I keep track of everything and forget nothing. And I've seen & appreciated your writing! So consider your interest noted 😄

Oh cool! I hope you'll like 3E, and perhaps we'll find an excuse to work together through it!

Hehe, we might not own the game, but we care so, so much about it and we'll do everything we can for it 😄

And this is I think the last one among the drawings from past years I still like a lot. Arguably my favorite of them all? The best of my limited skills, at least. I feel it tells a story.

Look, my lesbian undead knight is also a big dork of a horse girl, which means she's totally going to take her crush to see her horse during what's essentially their first date. Her crush: "So, what's something cool around here?" Her: MY HORSE IS SUPER COOL!! Shades of Adora there, ngl.

Or put another way: When the protagonists abuse their power/position in Criminal Minds, the narrative justifies them and paints them as heroes. In Hannibal, any justification doesn't make them look as cool - and the narrative often admits their actions aren't something it absolves.

Michele, a Ghost of Cinders @ghostofcinders.bsky.social · 20h
Criminal Minds yes, more and more as seasons advance. The Law & Order spirit takes over a lot, imho. Hannibal I wouldn't say so. I think it's too busy doing other things, and it shows too much of cops being bad at what they do while making you see things from the Hannibal & Will's perspective.

A quick note that when I got the chance to make Abyssal Charms, among many other things, I also put there one to cut out your heart & resurrect even as it makes you colder & meaner as long as it endures. Wonder where inspiration for that came from.

As I'm here with Davy Jones' AMVs going off in the background as I write, I feel the need to say: I get it. Falling in love with Calypso to that degree? I get it. Have you seen her? Have you see how cool she is? I would have done the same. Worth a "see you one day every 10 years deal" for sure.

Hey peeps. Youngles and I don't know each other, but they're cool and in trouble. Look at the list of stuff below. It's a lot, and by all accounts they're excellent at it. No easy task! If you have the means and opportunities, do consider hiring them in any capacity.

Nabbed from a Discord server and I just find it hilarious just how true this is with how some of y'all react.
A meme using a still of an anime-style man with glasses, standing outside and gesturing toward the right with one hand. Large white text at the top reads “PEOPLE ONLINE.” Blue text in the upper-right reads “ANY TTRPG THAT ACKNOWLEDGES SEX AS A THING THAT HAPPENS.” Large yellow text across the lower portion reads “IS THIS F.A.T.A.L.?” The image has an imgflip.com watermark in the bottom-right corner.

It's always a bit of an heartbreak whenever it becomes clear someone who makes a big show of caring & uplifting others only means it for those they find cool enough. Makes me feel stupid for still taking people at face value, which I should know better about but can't help it no matter what.

What I'm desperately trying to say that Petra Parker or Bowsette, this trend is not. Things don't exist in a vacuum, and this one brings along its nauseating everything and all that exists tied to it.

Hell, I'll give you an even better one: make your own aloof rival *or* pick a character from another story and change their aesthetics to fit another setting. Genderbent or not. Sasuke but he goes to Luna Nova. Girl Alucard as a ronin. Go off, and let Joanne & his spawn rot.

Oh yeah, I know how it is, but for what matters the deliberation of those choices shows & the result is great. Beyond that, it's so evident how much Changeling matters to you, through every word on paper.

In light of, *exhausted checking*, a fuckin' Harry Potter art trend in 2026 to which even people who should know better go after, I'll repeat what's below. Seriously, if you want to do something with the "aloof rival witch" archetype, Diana Cavendish, Agott, and Amity are right there (+ many more.)

I wanna say that: "A knight is sworn to valor, His heart knows only virtue, His blade defends the helpless, His might upholds the weak, His word speaks only truth, His wrath undoes the wicked." Heard as a fantasy-loving kid with help of "To the Stars", never really leaves you.

Thank you for all the shares and reposts. We're trying to scrape every dime together to get ready for this move. I'm currently having to attend jury duty selection, so I may lose work shifts this week and next. I also haven't received payouts for game profits. Any share or contribution helps.

A beautiful reprint (print?) of Imajica happened here, which is a book that has always been really difficult to find in Italy. Gave me an excuse to finally grab a copy, a friend did too. Mine's untouched, but he's reading and telling me it's a sensual book. "Yup," I said, "that's Clive Barker!"

The Dancer! Oh my God I love her so much. I was so glad to see her join Nightreign alongside Artorias. One of the most beautiful designs & fights in the whole series, I swear.

It's admittedly a problem if you're a knight who believes in principles identical to the Old Code from Dragonheart but you live in a world that runs on Berserk/Legacy of Kain/Dark Souls genre conventions. But there's beauty in that friction, so this is another burden I'll inflict to her.

I love 1, personally, because I'm very fond of the Alessa storyline. Looking forward to the remake. Also, Lisa's cutscene is seared into my mind. 2 is arguably the best in the series (and I care a ton for Angela), but for personal taste it's at the third spot for me.

This is, and I'm not kidding in the slightest, the goal anyone who writes Cosmic Horror in the modern day should have. Even moreso if like Cthulhu. Now, as an Italian enbie who wishes they were a monstrous fish person, I'm rather certain I'd scare Howard to death to begin with, but I can do more.
