Violetdawn001 - Exhausted, But Still Hoping

May she rest in peace, where no shadows fall...

@ddagent always finds the loveliest pics of Mira ❤️

Forever in love with this luminous, incredible woman who rose above the pain and horrors of this world to leave a lasting legacy of love and hope, light and compassion, of belief that a more peaceful, just world is possible if we fight for it. Through her acting, her writing, her music, her activism, she gives me hope and faith in the beauty of shining a light in the darkest places, of having the courage to stand up and loudly speak the truth when everyone around you wants to (literally) destroy you for it. I just cannot comprehend the sheer, unadulterated, unyielding strength that takes.

A beautiful soul, indeed.

Forever grateful for discovering Babylon 5 and falling in love with Delenn, and through her, finding that Mira was just as much a badass in actuality as the fictional one she played on TV.

Sometimes, we break through and create awesome stories by asking questions.

Other times, we get a breakthrough because we ask ourselves if we are asking the right questions. When it comes to pacing, this is one of those times.

Rethinking pacing

Pacing isn’t all about action. It’s about making sure that everything you write advances the story, even the quiet moments.

Instead of asking whether a scene is exciting, ask whether a scene is important.

Does it develop the plot?

Does it develop your characters?

If it does one of the above, then it's important and will fit into the pacing of your story. If it's important, that makes it interesting. If it's not important, it will be boring — and that's what pacing is all about.

why are you sleepy?

Why is this so true????

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Don't mind me rebloging this for future reference...

Bit of a headcanon chart for what bugs in Hallownest might eat, based on what we see in-game anyway. There might be aphid livestock floating around somewhere, but we didn't see it so

Bit of rambling below the cut

edit: I thought the follies/mistakes lost their sapience, but I think I was mistaken! they should be in No (Sapient)

Edible:

Self explanatory. Non-sentient insects that look tasty and aren't horribly infected/weird. Garpede is here because we've actually seen a dead Garpede, whereas we've only seen a fossilized Goam

Questionable:

These guys are either heavily infected, covered with crystals, or very weird. Aspids are hypothetically edible when not infected, maybe? But I'm not sure what that'd look like. As for the crystals, I'm not sure if the effort needed to remove all of the rocks is worth the time. Also despite Uomas and Oomas being here, I like to think Tiso eats Uomas on occasion, until he gets sick

No (Sentient):

Self explanatory.

No (Taste Bad):

Also pretty obvious.

I want this to be my car someday!

the prophecies begin protagonists... as pokemon starters! 💧🔥🍃

Oh this caused a pause because I'm still writing fics with these characters.

1. Yes they have to fight, 2. Tell me who’s fighting who in the tags! (I’ll add the most ridiculous combos in a reblog)

What's one thing from your childhood you'd love to do again if given the chance?

Considering that I still draw dragons, write stories, and play Pokemon, this is a hard question...

I say...go on roller coasters. Haven't been on one in years.

You all exploded my activities bar and I am ready to cry tears of joy.

Seriously, I woke up to 40 likes, reblogs, and follows. Thank you all for these presents!
