  1. And now I can take it!

  4. I just now realized you can see a list of who you’re following.

      That is where you can change how you get notifications from individual members you follow

      Though doing that gives notifs that you followed then unfollowed them

      Aha, I was looking at the wrong thing! Thank you!

  5. Sometimes yes, sometimes no.
  6. Oh, and I forgot to mention the sixteen-pointed star in the middle is crap, so sorry about that.
  7. From the album: Colored Cosmere Symbols

    Same thing, but with the ace colors, because it was the middle of the night and I felt like it. This one didn’t turn out as well, I didn’t have a gray pencil so I went with silver, which is annoyingly shiny in the picture. I also think a couple lines were worse in this one than they were the first time around. Ah well, it’s still better than 95% of what I draw. If anyone wants me to do one in a specific color or set of colors, I will! Just tell me

    Rainbow Symbol

    From the album: Colored Cosmere Symbols

    I thought of waiting til Pride Month, but what even is patience, so that didn’t happen. I probably made it harder for myself than I had to when making this - I shaded over the paper on one side while it was on top of my hardback Arcanum Unbounded, so the design showed, then indented the design with a pencil and flipped it over, using the indents as a line guide. There’s no way I’d have gotten them the right proportions free drawing. (They’re still not perfect.) But the colors were the easy part after that. If anyone wants me to do one in a specific color or set of colors, I will! Just tell me
  9. Finished The Dragon Prince and loved it! Nonspoilery summary: the plot was meh, the characters were fantastic. Great music, humor, and animation for the most part. My only big complaint is foreshadowing - they weren’t amazing at it, whether a plot twist or character development. But they could have been a lot worse too, and you have less time in a show than a book - you have to balance everything and give everything time, and I think they did that pretty well. 

    Spoilers - I loved everyone? There’s not really any qualifiers there, I just loved them all. Emotional connections were made quickly and stayed strong. Many cliches were broken (others weren’t, but none I can’t live with. Except maybe the “unexpected kisses are romantic” thing, but everyone does that, I can deal). So much representation! Of everything! Ethnicities in appearance and voices, Deaf, lesbian and gay characters, different personalities and morals, all the rep, I bury myself in it. 

    I didn’t expect Claudia and Soren to have such a big role! But they are So Good and require love, both of them. Tell Soren he’s not stupid and tell Claudia you won’t leave her. They need emotional help. Amaya! Is! Epic! I ship her either with Gren or Janai (mighta spelled that wrong), could see either or neither. RAYLUM. YES TO RAYLUM. I like Nyx lol, and thought of Safire entirely too much while watching her. 

    And Viren is a good guy! I knew it! Or he was before Aavaros had him steal the sun power, I think that was a tipping point, but even before that he was like “I just want a good future for humanity”. And kept saying it even when it was only Mr. Evil listening. No one to impress - just him. His intentions are good, he’s not just evil to be evil or hurt people or gain power. And he shows that complexity over and over again, in his relationships with Harrow and his kids (mostly his daughter, poor Soren just gets put down which is not okay). He’s one of the most morally gray characters I’ve seen. 

    Aavaros, by the way, is delightful. I thoroughly enjoy him every time he shows up. Best evil guy 2020. 

    Yeah so basically I’m just going to die until B4 in...May, right? Not too far away, at least. 

    (My mom actually showed up while I was at the end of Book One and started watching with me, then stayed for all the rest. She likes it too)

      Couldn't agree more.

      And can I just say, Aaravos has my favorite voice ever.

      YES, HIS VOICE. He’s just so happy. This silky evil laughter lies behind his tone constantly and I want more of him onscreen.

      The show’s definitely not over, so I’m sure you’ll get your wish.

  10. I’m not a Netflix person either, but holy heeeeeeeeeck
  11. Wow, you got us even on April Fools. That takes skill
  12. I’ve never played the original Hoenn games, so I never had that problem with Gabby. And...don’t they say Atreyu is a guy? I’m pretty sure that was mentioned like at least once? I could see people thinking he’s female from the appearance alone, but that movie is narrated. Weird.
  13. You made sense to me! But remember, you’re also here to experience and to be happy yourself. It’s good to not put yourself above others, but putting yourself below them is giving yourself less than you deserve. We are all equals, and we (minus the people who specifically cause others pain on purpose etc.) are all amazing, including you. I’m not saying stop what you’re doing, because being humble is a good thing and you know yourself best, but your explanation here alone proves you’re not an idiot.
  14. If the polyamorists hear this we’ll have a dynasty on our hands Also here, you forgot to give a new one - being nervous
  15. Wait, so it’s not Rick Astley after all?
  16. This thread has sired many things in the days since its birth.
  17. Okay, thanks for explaining. I was wondering if you meant something along the lines of what you said, or something like DID or OSDD. I’ll stop derailing this thread now
  18. I’ve talked before about how awful I am with drawing, so I’m shocked to present to you this glorious Starsight character. I have no idea how it happened, but here she is. The best art that anyone has ever done. Ever. Of Vapor. (April Fools )
  19. Can I ask for clarification? I don’t think so, I’ve seen other people do it. (Including myself. )
  20. In that case, he might still be the equivalent eventually.
  21. And here I thought it was Thaylen. What does that phrase mean?
  22. I haven’t, no.
  23. The raw potato, being an animal, burst back into the ring, ignoring the rules.
  24. “Thank you. It doesn’t matter to me, I just have a few questions. Does the Dark Alley have any ways of returning lost memories to people?” she asked bluntly.
