So Moira’s eyes have always been a very fun but seemingly random detail about her. But it turns out there might be a myth to explain it.
The whole myth is weird and long but basically- there was a fae lady named Pressyne who married the king of Scotland. She had a very specific rule about not being seen while bathing. At her daughter(s)’s birth, he breaks this. So, she runs back to the otherworld with her daughters. When her eldest daughter (Melusine) learns he did this, she goes back and kills him.
Her mother still held some love for him, so she curses her to become a mermaid like creature on Saturdays and that, if any man sees this, she will become a full serpent. She ends up falling for a king herself and she has kids with him, all odd in some way but healthy. With the eldest having one blue eye, and one red. But he breaks the rule (because of course he does) and she becomes a great serpent-like dragon. But she still loves her children, so she returns for them. Much like the banshee, she still comes to their ancestors to warn them of tragedies.
Which means that:
Moira has A LOT of references to ancestral spirits who warn of tragedies.
Also betrayal. Lots of backstabbing.
She has more mythological justification to summon a dragon then Genji or Hanzo combined.
Commission for my friend @nikodavisartwork !
frank, how did you readjust to the world after being freed of the well? that must’ve been really hard on you

Stan never really had a guy interested in him the way he was with them, so it was a bit difficult for rick to make his point clear to stan. After their first night, rick left to get some morning donuts, which freaked Stan out. He really thought he messed up.
"Given how important the idea of intelligence is to most people’s vanity, it is critical never inadvertently to insult or impugn a person’s brain power. That is an unforgivable sin." - Robert Greene When I read this sentence, I immediately thought of how Snape's immediate response to James and Sirius's Gryffindor aspirations was to impugn their intelligence, and how - for years and years - they insisted that he was in fact the stupid one, from the insults on the marauders' map (I think "padfoot" called him an idiot?) to the party line they all toed, that the underlying reason for the enmity was that James and Sirius were... good at things. Every time I start getting over how angry the whole thing makes me, something occurs to me that makes me angry all over again. Truly, how dare this impoverished nobody suggest that he might be intelligent, and more intelligent than the two rich purebloods! I wonder how come this is not such a sore spot for Lupin. Meanwhile, whenever Sirius does ascribe intelligence to Snape, it's of the "evil" and "wrong" kind. I gotta hand it to Harry and Ron. They got to age 12 (TWELVE!) already able to live with the fact that someone's cleverer than them and love her all the same. Imagine
in which minerva is just a little jealous suspicious
I just had a GALAXY brain idea, Rincewind says that his mother ran away before he was born, right, which ISN’T POSSIBLE
… if she’s cis.
Otto Octavius: You know, Curt, I could just make you a robot arm.
Dr. Connors (exasperated): That would be very nice for ME, but it's not a solution most could afford. I want to create something accessible to everyone. Everyone, no matter their station or disability, deserves the opportunity to be healed.
Otto: But
Otto: It would be very nice for you, right?
Wow so smooth
It's our favourite greasy old bat's birthday!! 🥰🎉 Wish him a happy birthday everyone, he will hate us all (he's so grumpy I love him so much)
I pick one of his famous quotes to make this small animation (using Tvpaint this time), sound source from yt, rough animation and ugly animatic on my ig
Rough drawing of this silly idea I got that I really wanted to draw.
You know when you and your friends are getting scolded and suddenly one of your friend starts making a face and you gotta try not to laugh, but now everything is funny? Yeah.
Brook wasn't even doing anything, he was just sitting there taking the earful like a champ.
I had a little project but I was lazy so I only made a doodles of it. it’s about them explore their pasts.
