Stubbytime - IT IS OKAY.

I Saw the TV Glow (2024) dir. Jane Schoenbrun

Please share this!!!!! As you resident vitiligan and fellow artist I am here to educate people on how to properly create a character with vitiligo and other things to keep in mind about the disorder.

Only 1% of the entire world’s population has vitiligo but I see so many artists making characters with it when they sometimes don’t even know what vitiligo is and pass it off as “skin pigmentation”. Like— what does that even mean??? XD

It’s not an aesthetic and it won’t get you “diversity points” so stop romanticizing vitiligo!

Cultural/Childhood Headcanons for Sevika!!!!

As we know Sevika is South Asian coded and though that specific culture does not necessarily exist in Runeterra, I still like to think there'd be some type of Desi culture for her and other characters coded similarly.

When she was young, her mother used to do Henna! Birthday's, holidays or any occasion that was special or could considered special to Sevika or her family. Maybe not the most intricate or skilled, but it made Sevika happy! As she got older her mom showed her how to basic designs so they would be able to having matching or similar artwork on their hands, feet or arms.

I can really see Sevika having longer hair as a child (even though short hair baby Sev is the cutest!!!), and same with her mother. Maybe not crazy long down to the floor, but a considerable length (Let's say it stopped around mid back). They'd have one day a week that they washed and oiled their hair, not only for the maintenance but bonding, and I'd like to think Sevika would really look for to those days <3

I'd really like to think Sevika is a chai snob(This HC is from a friend). Growing up it might've not made appearance often but when it did, her parents made the beverage better than anyone in Runeterra. Therefore, unless she makes it herself (She will do this often, especially after giving up drinking, and getting closer with Jinx and Isha who are now also chai snobs), she's not impressed. Merchants might use too much milk, or the tea didn't steep long enough, or maybe the cloves have lost their potency. Whatever the reason, Sevika is extremely critical of her favorite drink, and is convinced that only she can create the perfect chai.

Sevika growing up would get into her mother's makeup, always going for the same color lipstick and kajal her mother used. Getting older, perhaps as teenager, she would if she couldn't afford or find it in the Undercity would venture topside and swipe the lipstick shade and eye makeup from the Piltover version of Sephora

My last cultural headcanon is that Sevika and her mother would sometimes wear Sarees! Maybe not out and about in the Undercity often, but definitely dressed up at home. Specifically that same burgundy reddish shade of her cloak (who someone pointed out on twt is worn like an Indian shawl!)

Upon finishing this list I realize this is Mother/Daughter leaning HC's so I think I will do some Father/Daughter HC's next :)

Lando in 2022:

"I don't know any of the new drivers"

Lando in 2023 directly to his new teammate Oscar:

"you pop up in a thong"

"I'd get him like a… see-through shirt"

"you could go between my legs"

"did you grow motherf*cker?" "how tall are you"

I cannot believe there's absolutely no way to watch free shows and movies anymore, there are too many paid streaming platforms and pirating websites have viruses and ads preventing you from watching it uninterrupted((.)) id rather follow the rules and purchase media moving forward because it is too inconvenient. Seriously, free and no ads or viruses with 1080p streaming is DEAD.

I think my favorite genre of headcanons (specifically in the arcane fandom) are older people acting their age.

You give Sevika or Ambessa a phone and them being in the 40's-50's age range, they would most definitely hold it too far from their face, squint, and use their index finger to scroll to whatever videos or images they want to see next. Oh, and they don't consider volume to be an issue either. No headphones. No turning it down. You can't walk down the hall without hearing whatever obscure video they're watching.

Ambessa being a black mom would 100% be one of those to see a kid without socks or a coat on in reasonably calm weather - it's just hit 50 or 60 degrees outside in fall (10-15 Celsius) and her brows would knit together in frustration as she mumbles something along the lines of; "Where is that child's coat?"

Both of their Facebook profile photos would be some variation of the awkward mom/aunt angles where they're holding the camera too low so that they're looking down at it with the faintest hint of a smile (not Sevika though, I fear that lady is not about to smile on Facebook. Hell she doesn't post on social media at all, she just has it to occasionally be nosy)

Both Sevika and Silco need reading glasses. Neither of them wears them when they need to. But when they do the moment they're called on by someone or trying to read something they'll do that thing where they tilt their head down and look over the rims as if that'll somehow make seeing whoever/whatever they're trying to look at easier to see.

Like all the sexy headcanons are fun and all, but I do need more of these. I crave it like water.

everyone keeps saying mans has no emotions so they had to connect a heart rate monitor to him 😭

he made him a trophy and predicted it’s fate ;__;

i'm literally the priest's favorite sacrificial lamb because i am so docile and sweet and i hold very still when they put the rope around my neck and i trot along so happily while they lead me to the altar and they do not even have to tie me down because i lie so very still and only bleat once or twice in my lovely lamb voice and when the knife comes down it cuts through me like butter and i offer no resistance and i bleed so prettily all over my new white wool and my guts all unspool like the most beautiful shining yarn and my eyes are animal and dumb and hold no accusation and every time i die i come right back as another little lamb because the priest loves me so so much and he always chooses me for the sacrifice every time and he always places one hand on my small and twitching nose to calm me while he lifts the knife and he doesn't do it for the other lambs only me because i'm his favorite
