Just Started Reading Gunnerkrigg Court By Tom Siddel. It Might Be My New Favourite Thing. I Just Redrew

A preview of a thing for a thing :D

Well some things that come to mind are:

Ametrine

Peridot’s reactions to her old home kingdom (and her backstory??)

Peridot and Almond finding out they like the same show

Puffington’s

Disaster Masters

what are their naaaaames

the eventual return of G͜͜ĺ̴i̷̴̛̛t̵̢c҉͡h͜͏̷̛m̨͞͏́á̧ś͘͢͡t̶͞e̵͏͡ŗ̵͞͠

yeah!!!

#im looking forward to the crystal kingdom just for all the su connections lmao

so funny thing actually

In the bonus material of book 1, written way before SU even aired, there’s a section on the kingdoms of Dreamside. It says the Crystal Kingdom is divided into two: a scorching hot side ruled by King Ruby, and an icy side ruled by Queen Sapphire.

have you seen this series of tweets alluding to future cucumber quest stuff? (just go down a couple pages or ctrl-f “interlude”)

I had actually seen them a while back, but i’d forgotten. its pretty exciting! Which upcoming event are you most hyped for friend?

jeremy_zag: New Kwami means new superhero!? 🤔…. hummm… Maybe! 😋👍 Miraculous Ladybug Season 2 is coming guys !!!! #miraculousladybug #zagheroez#zagtoon

i 100% forgot i posted these on twitter oops

@xekstrin you got a combo

Immortal vampire Ozzie is defending New Jersey from the apocalypse, alongside her best friend Kimmy and a magic talking grimoire. Start reading OZZIE THE VAMPIRE by @ericlide today!

#also i love when fantasy does this kind of american gods style 'the gods need and are shapped by mortal belief/worship' angle A LOT

there’s a whole tvtrope about this! Gods Need Prayer Badly. or for the more general case of belief = making it real, Clap Your Hands If You Believe.

(tangent ahead)

I think the first time I came across the “belief shaping gods, even retroactively” angle was in the webcomic Digger, with its in-universe myths about the Good Man and the Black Mother. you can read the relevant pages starting here, it’s like 8 pages. the Black Mother myth was inspired by real life stories told by street children in Miami, as noted in the comments.

later, I also came across this “retroactive shaping” / ”contradictory myths co-existing” idea in Gunnerkrigg Court and Discworld.

I wasn’t going anywhere in particular with this, so I guess this is the end of my post?

Please read order of the stick

Character: “Wow, i didn’t realize the gods were so dependent on the beliefs of everyday mortals like us”

Thor: “Oh, you have no idea. I used to be a ginger until that damn superhero comic book came out.”

What if I’m far from home? Oh brother, I will hear you call! Oh, if the sky comes falling down For you, there’s nothing in this world I wouldn’t do (hc: callum’s scarf is ezran’s comfort clothing.)

I wanted to see how she’d look with colored-in pupils.
