Honestly? Agreed. I'm Trying To Write A Recovery Sequel To The Fic I Wrote Last Night Where Adrien Actually

Unpopular opinion: Vin/Elend is actually really well written.

Not because of the pining/buildup in the first book, but because of the way the established relationship was written in books two and three. It's rare to see characters together, on screen, in stories. Rarer still to see them having problems that they work through, arguments, doubts, differences, and issues that they overcome because they love each other, even if they're different people. Rarest of all to see love that lets a character sacrifice their loved one for the world as the loved one would want, instead of sacrificing the world for the loved one.

For cosmere inktober, day six: "Cryptic"

Because Pattern may be the Cryptic, but he's not the truly cryptic one.

me tagging when i first started posting to A03: ok i’ll tag the main characters, relationship, and content warnings.... maybe a little explanation of the plot? oh jeeze i hope that’s not too much...

me tagging now: welcome, readers, to the director’s cut (with commentary)

The amazing @aerequets already did something like this, but I had more than half of this drawn when that went up, so I'll just . . . post this anyway. Go read hers, though, it's hilarious!

Pidge: Are you seeing somebody?

Lance: *screaming internally*

Lance: Why? Are you interested?

Pidge: No, I just think it would help if you saw a therapist or something

Septimus Heap has the ultimate found family. You start with the core seven-son family, which is already guaranteed to have at least nine members. Not to mention they have a crazy aunt and at least six uncles, as well as a tree or two.

Throw in an adopted daughter, 1.5 ducks and 0.5 of a cat, the youngest son's adoptive mother/mentor/BFF and semi-adoptive father/kidnapper, the adopted daughter's biological dad, the youngest son's best friend who will someday be the adopted daughter's boyfriend, a ghost uncle, the youngest son's first best friend/adoptive brother from his childhood in the army who is probably also the second oldest son's boyfriend, the youngest son's dragon, and the oldest son's wife.

Oh, and don't forget the ghost uncle's ghost girlfriend, the mother, father, and brother of the oldest son's wife, the second youngest son's girlfriend and her transforming panther, maybe a couple witches (or maybe not), the adopted daughter's ghost mom and ghost grandmother, the oldest son's pet tennis ball, the adopted daughter's pet rock(s), and a centuries-old magical grandpa who you can only see by exiting time.

And we haven't even gotten to the sequel series yet!

Look me in the eyes and tell me that Plance and "Princess and the Frog" don't have almost exactly the same character dynamic

Vivenna!

(WIPs and alt. versions under the cut, because this went through a thousand different iterations and I have a burning desire to show you them all)

And whatever this is, just for fun:

This is a magic system that was made to be drawn.
