Your Art Is So Cool!

Love this!!! Scout takes after his ma and is a proud dad to his gazillion children

Scaredy kittens 💔

thinking about harvey stardew valley and being a rural country doctor with a caseload like:

guy who won’t accept any diagnosis except “you have consumption and need to go to the seaside for your health”

woman who asks what gemstone he would prescribe for her UTI

guy who spends half the day trying to give himself a concussion and the other half trying to blow out his hearing on his guitar

two people who have struggled with alcoholism for years but reject all of his resources for it UNTIL someone gifts them alcohol biweekly for a year straight and suddenly their lives turn around

guy who will not stop mailing people bombs but in a friendly way and like this just isn’t on the PTSD screener??

guy who won’t stop asking him vague but increasingly bizarre questions about the safety of truffle oil

woman who EATS ROCKS

and also there’s a fucking wizard. what’s up with that. how often do you think the man goes “why did i get an MD why didn’t i just train to be a wizard i didn’t even know that was an option” while performing emergency surgery on this one farmer who won’t stop picking fights with ACTUAL MONSTERS

So Hades II has been dropping not so subtle hints that the gods are in the wrong and Melinoë may have to question the morality of the war she's been fighting for her entire life. It's present in the way the gods justify their treatment of mortals, it's present in the way Nemesis talks about justice and the fates of characters like Arachne, it's present in the way Chronos talks about his goals (though of course, it's easy to see how he could be lying about the new golden age, even though the history of the mythological golden age does hint at him being right).

But, to me, the number one sign that Melinoë may be on the wrong side of this conflict is the newest boss. I can't think of a single mythic figure who is more instantly sympathetic or more likely to be genuinely fighting for the wellbeing of mortals than Prometheus. I can't think of a single god, titan, or hero who cares more about humanity and its progress. I haven't studied up on Prometheus more than just reading the famous myth about him, but I have never really heard him discussed unsympathetically. I know this may be a biased perspective as a puny mortal, but my gut tells me to side with whoever Prometheus is throwing in with. But I guess we'll see if I'm putting too much stock in him as the plot continues to unfold.

I fear fish women

ive had an epiphany

hi on this early access eve can i introduce to you all my favorite new magnus crackship

annacelia

both annabelle and celia end up in the OIAR verse being pulled through reality - celia via however she got there and annabelle via hilltop road.

as the fears reshape, annabelle is cut off from the Web and she feels utterly lost and purposeless, maybe depressed, as she dedicated all of her life to the Web’s plans and now its gone. celia, meanwhile, has no context for any of this. she was okay then the apocalypse happened then these weird guys showed up and evidently they started it and now shes here. she’s lost too but in a much more literal sense.

the two of them meet. annabelle has the Knowledge of what happened and celia has the drive to make things better. annabelle gives her the context she needs and helps her find the OIAR where she can look for jon and martin.

and maybe they kiss

i love yuri

stardew valley flora 🌻

[now you can purchase prints and preorder tote bags on my etsy or my ko-fi !!]

i've been wanting to try one of these botanical posters in my style, and the 1.6 update was the perfect excuse✨

Farming and foraging, my faves! Someone should make these but with fish lmao. Anyways, I'm a summer fan (that's when blueberries grow, and it's when I married Alex).

I've been seeing stardew inspired botanical prints all around the place, so thought I'd try my own hand at it! Winter had to include a few more of the special crops than originally intended, but I still love it tbh. What season is your favourite in stardew valley?

today is my birthday!!
