colored a sketch on my phone of my Tintin design outfit
I added a yellow scarf, but I forgot to put the pencil behind his ear
either way, what do you all think? I quite like it.
#HE!!!#he's so shaped and his hair is so floofy and i love the elbow patch#tintin#fanart#reblog#also i read the notes and am deeply amused that you drew the Emotionally Significant yellow scarf without knowing about chang /pos#op please read blue lotus and tintin in tibet#chang is the preciousest most friend shaped boy ever#i am so normal about tintin and chang

not to be controversial bc I know this is like…not in line with shifting opinions on fanfic comment culture but if there’s a glaring typo in my work I will NOT be offended by pointing it out. if ao3 fucks up the formatting…I will also not be offended by having this pointed out…
‘looking forward to the next update’ and ‘I hope you update soon!’ are different vibes than a demand, and should be read in good faith because a reader is finding their way to tell you how much they love it. I will not be mad at this.
‘I don’t usually like this ship but this fic made me feel something’ is also incredibly high praise. I’m not going to get mad at this.
even ‘I love this fic but I’m curious about why you made [x] choice’ is just another way a reader is engaging in and putting thought into your work.
I just feel like a lot of authors take any comment that’s not perfectly articulated glowing praise in the exact manner they’re hoping to receive it in bad faith.
fic engagement has been dropping across the board over the last several years, and yes it’s frustrating but it isn’t as though I can’t see how it happens. comment anxiety can be a real thing. the last thing anyone wants to do is offend an author they love, and that means sometimes people default to silence.
idk where I’m going with this I guess aside from saying unless a comment is outright attacking me I’m never going to get mad at it, and I think a lot of authors should feel the same way. ESPECIALLY TYPOS PLZ GOD POINT OUT MY TYPOS.

Chant Inheritance
Gwendolen Chant: Chrestomanci's letters. Diamond earrings. Her brother's lives. Her parents' souls which she stores like Ursula did in The Little Mermaid probably
Cat Chant: a spray of heather
#cat: mrs sharp is equally kind to us both :)#mrs sharp:#cannot get over how bad every adult in cats life failed him???#been reading charmed life for the second time and noticing all manners of fucked up things#like when cat asked for money and help with turning into a flea next week and nostrum didn't bother to actually promise anything#because cat was supposed to be dead by next week#what is this book so disturbing for 😭#cat chant#gwendolen chant#chrestomanci

the line ‘these are your nine lives, cat. how did you come to lose so many?’ is so achingly chilling because diana then has cat thinking about the times he ‘almost died’, and then the stuff gwendolen kept summoning. as a reader, you’re hit with both the knowledge that gwendolen really did some shit and also that cat has…died. five times. without noticing
‘you didn’t die in the night without noticing’ ha. haha ha hA you’d be surprised
#no bc cat always knew gwendolen gave him cramps and later came to the conclusion that the cramps were one of his deaths#but never put those together and confronted the fact that gwendolen straight up killed him#janet was right when she said ''you should be called mule bc when you don't want to know something you don't''#he always knew gwendolen was a shit person he knew#even if he didn't know the extent of her shittiness#he just couldn't let himself think about it neutrally because his entire worldview was built on clinging to his sister#and if he actually let himself confront the things he knew about her everything would collapse#and then it did anyway in the worst way possible :D#i'm#head in hands#cat chant#chrestomanci#ALSO ALSO#the way he realised the things gwendolen was summoning were his past deaths#but never for a second thought about how nasty and cruel it was of her? hello??#oh cat......

Yea, I love reading romance stories and dreaming about my favourite couples..but sometimes, all I want, is to have a cozy evening with my little adventurers and their lovely besties!
Tintin made my teenage years, and now as an adult, I'm obsessed with Sherlock Holmes.
Reading these characters makes me feel so good, like, who cares about marriage and settling down! I want to escape reality and go on solving mysteries and having whacky adventures with my best friend!
(Of course, I can't escape reality, can't even escape from my city, and it's absolutely hard to find such an understanding and loving best friend in this time, people are so selfish)

Lettie, walking past Howl: Pathetic!
Howl: What?
Lettie: Nothing, just wanted to inform you that you’re pathetic.
I SURE HOPE SO
i cannot emphasize enough how funny it would be for howl (27, hates confrontation, got the highest-ranking magical job in the kingdom against his will) to join forces with lettie (17, froths with rage at the implication that she can’t be successful bc she’s not youngest, canonically yells at the king)
