I know I said weekly memes but this one was too good to gatekeep. (Thanks for this accidental collab @kajenus)
Hey chat, anyone here know how or where to find translations
We know what Ajaw and Ch’ulel mean but I don’t have the slightest clue about the other words and can’t find where to translate. (This is my favorite OST if you guys are wondering😊. I can literally stand hours in the chamber of deliberation for this track)
If you’re taking Ixlel song recs by any chance, Body by Mother Mother
(I can’t put a screenshot in here but here are some of the lyrics)
[Verse 1] Take my eyes, take them aside Take my face, and desecrate My arms and legs, they get in the way And take my hands, they'll understand Take my heart, pull it apart And take my brain, or what remains And throw it all away
[Chorus] 'Cause I've grown tired of this body A cumbersome and heavy body
(the rest of the song follows a similar pattern)
But specifically the line “take my heart, pull it apart”. If that isn’t Ixlel I don’t know what is. I couldn’t think about anything but this line when I first did the quest
AUGHH OP YOU GOT ME LOOKING LIKE THIS:
I forgot about this song and man you reminded me of it in THE BEST WAY. I might just—*explodes*
Oh guys, Ixlel my beloved… how much better I can treat you….
This part of Step On Me by The Cardigans is her, word for word.
Now that all the Saurains are available (I should have asked this earlier at launch if 5.5 but better late then never)
My thoughts on the live stream:
Shit y’all, we are in the end game. It seems like they are using Nod-Krai to tie up any loose ends of the story and honestly I’m so scared.
They also seem to be taking inspiration from Norse and Celtic mythologies for this region. (Lowkey hyped and I can use this as my excuse to finally research both myths)
As for the npcs… THEY LOOK AMAZING?!!
This fire looking dude is definitely from the “Wild Hunt” and I can’t begin to tell y’all how hyped I am for it. Out of every group so far, the Wild Hunt is my favorite. As for the other npc, she’s definitely from the frost moons.
Anyway I don’t have too much more to say as I don’t want to spoil the entire stream so you guys go watch it. OH WAIT BEFORE YOU DO!! Don’t forget to redeem the mini codes (those teasers leading up to the stream) and this new one before 5/3
Anyway Ink out!
We are kinda back!! I’m changing it to weekly memes this time I don’t get burnt out like before 😖
Anyway new dynamic drop (that I may or may not have been going crazy over), what do you guys think:
*Boom* I somehow learned how to draw dragons??? And ofc this is on my History packet instead of my sketchbook or iPad, sighhhhh.
Anyway Kukulkan looks so good, chat (when does he not)
Ok Hoyo, pack it up and drop the Arcane collab 🙄
Ok but doesn’t that look exactly like the Undercity form Arcane or and I actually losing it. I mean LOOK!!
I haven’t had the chance to talk about this so it’s now or never. I am a definite believer of Ajaw being CL-10 but I don’t really have much concrete proof (at least I think) as most of it is based on how I view Ajaw and the behaviors I observed.
First thing that threw me instantly off the idea that Ajaw is 04 is merely 02’s comment on 04 being old and decrepit. Yes, disdainful and decadent are both traits that Ajaw has but at the same time I fear most of the lord have these two traits. Ajaw constantly boosts about being almighty and powerful, and sure CL-02 could be just making a jab at 04, but being described as old and decrepit isn’t every almighty and powerful, you know?
Secondly CL-10’s behavior and title. Ajaw is fairly foolish if I had to say so myself, his greed is genuinely unmatched and his pride/ego is unshakable. With how CL-10 got sealed up, aka via getting fooled by some humans with a fake jade, it seems to me very in theme of Ajaw’s over all personality.
As for his title, I have a theory that I may discuss more in depth in another post when I get the chance, but I think the titles genuinely mean something to the lords. The best example of this is Ixlel (Ink goes one day without mentioning her pooks? Challenge failed) HEAR ME OUT. Ixlel is known as the Chronicler of the End times and if I do say so myself that’s a pretty important part of her character. She literally experienced the end times of dragons first hand and if I had to guess she saw them hence why she fled to Och-Kan in order to survive. Back to Ajaw, he suffered INTENSE isolation. Sealed up in god knows where with little hope of ever meeting any living being again, yeah pretty isolated. Now let’s compare both of the titles:
I’m sure someone can make an arguable point for 04’s title (please someone do cause I genuinely can’t think of anything) but It is more clear to me with 10’s. “Undying Wings of Lofty Isolation” in other words “can’t die dragon of high/resilient/noble/other synonyms for lofty Isolation”. We sure know as hell that Ajaw isn’t dying anytime soon and I’m bringing back the fact that Ajaw was definitely isolated for an unknown period of time.
Anyway yap time over, in summary this is more or less why I believe Ajaw is 10 and not 04. If someone wants to tell me more or argue (not aggressive way, I love seeing other peoples povs) let me know ❤️
Someone once asked me “Ink, what do you like rendering?” And I stared them dead in the eyes and said “loose cloth”
I LOVE RENDERING LOOSE FABRIC🗣️🗣️🗣️
(wip piece that I might not post on here as it’s not close to genshin related cause it’s my oc but who knows)
When my friend told me that Shinji and Kaworu were gay, I didn’t expect GAY. Like he showed up randomly and already confessed that he loves Shinji 10 minutes into the episode (his first appearance fyi).
WHERE DID HE COME FROM??? Reminds me of a certain someone who just happened to have also shown up from nowhere and steal the main character’s heart *cough cough Xbalanque*
5.6 livestream codes for those who want them
(Dates with the final code)
Another Evangelion redraw 🗣️🗣️
Ignore whatever Ixlel is wearing, I’m working on it. She’s like Barbie so I can’t choose what I want her to wear 😭

The longer these chains bound her. Tightly keeping her within her stone-carved prison. Her memories corrupt on themselves, never-ending repetition of the past.

What had he done...Oh, in the name of the Sun, what has he become? That beast that he feared? Or perhaps even worse.
Today’s meme: I’ve come to a revelation
Thank you *dramatic bow*
For context, I found a crackship for these two and it’s honestly the funniest shit ever

I give up on my AP computer science class, doing my last project on fucking Hatsune Miku. My teacher can take it or leave it… he better take it.
(He said it was free range as long as it was a computing innovation and a software counts as that, plus she’s fitting all the criteria. Miku give me a good grade cause I know I will fail the next test tomorrow🙏)

Before I keep writing the second chapter, I need to know this
This tag will only be for the small beginning of the second chapter of Reds, Yellows, and Indigo but I still don’t want anyone to feel uncomfortable or turn away from the fic cause of it. (I am trying to make it skippable in the story so for those who want to read can and those who don’t can go past it)
I personally want to say it’s not too bad but then again it’s different for everyone and I’ll be watching heads get cut off in tv shows while claiming “it’s not too bad”
I just came to the most heartbreaking realization. Ixlel really did think that she was the last one left.
Whoever Ajaw was supposed to be (I think he’s ten) was already claimed as dead. She couldn’t have known about him still being alive hence her saying that we, the chosen of dragons, could be the only one to put her out of her misery
She truly had nobody else…
(Chapter two is gonna be a hard read guys, I’m already feeling my heart ache and I’m the one who’s writing it)
2 more hours, Xilonen…
How prepared am I chat (Pity 40 with no Guaranteed)
