STOP SCROLLING!!

More Elias cosplay. Though, this time it's not about the outfit.

I have freaky Bouchard eyes, God given, so, conveniently, I can use them for any Elias fanart I do. If I need a reference for an expression, I just do it myself.

When I did my first art piece, I asked myself "how do I convey this expression on an unsettling, unblinking man?" Then I remembered that 'I' am an unsettling, unblinking man, and my stupid eyes are under utilized.

Oh I'm quite excited! I'll guess option 2

I wonder which one will be correct and what everyone else thinks

Although it could be you're being a trickster and messing around with measurements

If that is the case I reserve all rights to call you incorrigible ;)

As for me; I've included an easy round and a more challenging round

Why?

Because it's fun

Round 1

1. I'm farsighted in one eye and nearsighted in the other

2. I was a tomboy as a small child

3. I've never read more than a passage or two from Ovids Metamorphoses ( counting both Translations and original)

Now for the tricky one

Round 2 ( Bonus!)

1. Once, when I was a teenager, my grandparents thought I was suicidal because I was leaning out of a window at 3 in the morning (I was looking at stars in the countryside)

2. I once got a ball launched against my ear so hard I couldn't hear for 20 minutes

3. Once, when I was around the age of 9, I went ice skating with a friend who played ice hockey and when they tried to teach me the basics, I fell and almost dislocated my arm when I landed wrong

(I have since then learned how to actually skate)

Good luck! :D

@s0viet-gamer @evilasiangenius

Two truths and one lie! Tag someone else to play!

1. I have a fake eye

2. I have a calico cat

3. I have killed 47 people!

Historians will say they were only friends

also u were right option two is the lie I loooove sour candy it's my favorite :3

I distinctly remember seeing a pack of sour candy on your pin board ;)

“Men at Arms is a direct attack on the idea of monarchy and aristocracy that so much “high fantasy” is based on; Jingo is a fantasy war story that denies the reader the “fun” of seeing a war break out and ends up attacking the concept of war; the character of Rincewind is a subversion of the whole idea of heroism. Monstrous Regiment is a meditation on feminism, Cherry Littlebottom and other female dwarfs a commentary on gender identity and trans people, Thud! a statement against ethnic hatred. But all this deconstruction and subversion didn’t come across as having to eat your vegetables, the way literary fiction often does. And it didn’t come across as a bitter, guilty pleasure either, the way people geek out about the horrifying viciousness of “low fantasy” worlds like A Song of Ice and Fire’s Westeros. Pratchett somehow made his progressive, subversive work as tasty a snack as any of the high fantasy he was subverting. Much of that candy coating was humor–the ability to laugh, as he once argued, being our brain’s way of extracting pleasure from the otherwise painful process of recognizing uncomfortable truths.”

Arthur Chu breaks down the importance of Discworld in his farewell tribute to Sir Terry Pratchett, A Guide to Escape from Escapism (via landunderwave)

Part of why it worked was because Pratchett didn’t sneer at heroism or idealism, he showed how good intentions go bad and over the course of centuries things fossilise and need to be replaced, and most importantly, he showed the heroism of the small.  Yes, he showed the other side of the coin, the darker side of the heroic and epic, but he didn’t use that as an excuse to go Martin’s way of “this is what it’s really like: murder, rape and treachery under all the fine words”.

People like Vimes who stuck to duty even in his worst hours, when he was sunk in self-loathing and alcoholism, a dangerous man who sabotaged himself half-intentionally, because it was in his bones and because (as we got to know in “Night Watch”) he also had his own ideals and idealism that he doggedly held on to, even when half-ashamed of that.

He permits honour to exist in his world, even if it’s not kings and knights in shining armour.

It may be low fantasy, but it’s never vile.  Even when he’s showing us what real evil looks like.

helloe mutual

If the entire earth were stir-fried, what do you think it would taste like?

Hullo Mutual ! =D

That is quite an interesting question!

My first thought would be to say vaguely crunchy because of rocks n' stuff, but that's not at all true!

After giving it more musing and research I think it would be more metallic/ silicone ( silicate??siliconic?? That's not a word but oh well) This is because the inner and outer crust are mostly composed of Iron and nickel with a few heavier elements thrown in.

The mantle and the Crust on the other hand are mostly composed of silicate rocks which contain some Iron and other metals.

It is interesting to note how little of earth's actual mass is part of the Hydrosphere ( water) or is of anthropocene origins.

I would have to guess that earth biosphere and human shenaniganery would probably add vague overtones of blood, concrete and chemicals.

So yeah, tada! This might not have really answered your question but I tried; btw thank you for getting me to research the earth's layers again. It's been a while, even if I haven't done the most in depth research on the topic it was still quite fun :)

Also please feel free to correct me in the notes as I am but a humble idiot and in NO way an expert

Anyways the only remaining question is what the texture would be like ;)
