i'm so glad that my predictions about Caldarus being a Foodie were true. when I was talking to him as a statue, he had a noticeable amount of lines about food, despite also having a line about the fact that dragons don't technically have to eat

and then once he becomes giftable? basically all of his favorite items, loved and liked, are food. he's always talking about some recipe he's tried and failed. he burns noodles. he struggles with fried rice. but he still tries!! and like most NPCs, he has an interaction at one point where he gives you an item, and of course, it's one of the rare attempts he's had at cooking that actually turned out good.

his unique lines when you gift him his loved and liked items are my favorites, and I highly recommend filling them all out (as many as possible anyway, some are not in the game yet, as with most characters)

ID: [A person with shoulder length brown hair. Text in front of them reads “Hi again!”. The video changes to show them pointing to more text on screen that reads “A lot of you have been asking me how I got top surgery covered when I’m not trans masc or on hormones”. They point again to more text that reads “Its because WPATH standards of care says a diagnosis of gender dysphoria is valid enough reason to need top surgery without HRT and most insurances use this as a guide”.

Another change where they are holding their foot upside down with text above reading “I want to share this amazing resource with folks - its how I got two therapist letters diagnosising my dysphoria FOR FREE”. The video changes to a laptop screen with the text “Thegalap.org”.

The website loads and more text on screen reads “These therapists have pledged to write low cost and free letters to trans folks to get rid of some of the stress and lame gatekeeping we have to deal with when getting our nexessary precedures covered. They are all around the country and will see you remotely, usually over the phone or video.”. athe cideo cuts to the same person, this time giving a thumbs up.

Text reads “It was a pain free, validating process and my insurance accepted both letters no questions asked! Good luck!!! You’re valid!]

The other MaiLee drawing that has been sitting in my files for over a year now.

Animal DNA swap!

This took me sooo long to finish, my wrist hurts now ;_;

I’m starting a new button serie, Milotic is 1/6 !

Basically 

I think a lot about that Fruits Basket story where the onigiri (rice ball) thinks its plain and bad with nothing special about it

but everyone else actually admires it because of the delicious plum on its back that it can’t see

anyway, I’m going on a second date with a girl soon and couldn’t help but think “Why would she want to keep going out with me?? I’m like, so weird and a little crazy.”

but then I remembered that there is also a plum on my back that I can’t see and that people often like others for reasons we don’t recognize in ourselves. Be kind to yourself. There’s always something good about someone– however little we remember it.

hello this is my favorite video ever please please

I tried to animated with watercolors.

you got any favorite youtube channels/videos on costume stuff?

(oops, this has been sitting in my drafts for many weeks)

A few!

Until recently I didn’t watch much of anything on youtube, unless I was looking for music or specific tutorials, but then I learned that there are historical sewing channels out there! I haven’t watched a huge amount yet though. I’ll list the ones I’ve watched the most of first.

Oh! Also, in December of 2019 a whole bunch of historical costume youtubers did a Secret Santa, so if you search “costube secret santa” a lot more will come up from channels I haven’t checked out yet, or just check the list in the description of this video.

Bernadette Banner - My favourite, her videos are so well made, and she has so much enthusiasm for historical sewing techniques.

10/10 Relatable Content right there! Lots of sewing videos, and she does various different eras. She is currently getting started on an 1890′s black velvet ballgown project.

Karolina Zebrowska - A combination of educational videos about fashion history, and memes & funny skits.

Morgan Donner - A delightful sewing channel with mostly medieval and Renaissance stuff.

Sewstine - Famous for her historical machine embroidery, and she started making videos about it recently! I didn’t realize before how much work machine embroidery is.

Cathy Hay - Not really any sewing videos, but more about the time management & mental health aspect of historical costuming. A mom-friend who is there to encourage you!

Rachel Maksy - Mostly does vintage stuff and cosplay (and really amazing makeup holy heck please click this link), and is only just learning to sew, but she has done some historical stuff and I’m including her because she’s delightful and also because I want to post this screenshot.

“The way you decorate your meatbag is up to you.” Words to live by!

Enchanted Rose Costumes - She’s got sewing videos about 18th and 19th century stuff, and is currently learning how to make needle lace in order to replicate her favourite Worth gown.

Prior Attire - Many different eras, and she mainly does “getting dressed” videos, as well as a few tutorials.

Costuming Drama - I’ve only watched a couple of her videos so far, and they appear to be mostly long vlog type videos that are good for watching while hand sewing. Mostly 19th century, I think.

Bryce Adams - She makes bobbin lace!!! A fairly new channel that I’ve only watched one video from, but I’m excited to see more lace making stuff.

American Duchess - While their channel has a lot of videos of what their shoes look like on feet, they also have some sewing videos, ones where they talk about historical fashion, and general costumed silliness. They also have a very interesting podcast.

Burnley & Trowbridge - The wonderful online shop I buy button blanks and linen thread from! They have historical sewing tutorials that I’ve found incredibly useful.

Gilbert Dolthalion - Another fairly new channel. He’s working on making that 16th century Aziraphale outfit from the Shakespeare scene! 

Gina B Silkworks - Gina Barrett does magnificent passementerie. Thread buttons, woven trim, tassels, etc. She made the thread buttons for Sweeney Todd’s shirt in the 2007 movie.

LBCC Historical - Historical cosmetics and hair! Same person I bought my 18th century makeup from.

Pinsent Tailoring - I’m sure most everyone reading this has heard of Zack Pinsent, and he’s finally started making videos! He just released his first one yesterday and it turns out he’s an awkward human just like the rest of us, especially since he’s currently recovering from a broken elbow. Poor guy broke a teacup because he’s not used to doing things left handed :( 

I expect there will be sewing content and stuff about Regency fashion, and he’s mentioned that he will do a tutorial on different ways to tie a cravat, which I’m looking forward to since that’s something I’m not very good at.

Lady Rebecca Fashions - Another very recent channel, which I’ve only seen one video from, but it looks like she makes a lot of lovely 19th century stuff.

Marius Lee - @marius-pont-de-bercy​ has made one video so far and it’s about sewing an 18th century men’s shirt!

Mimic of Modes - Hi @mimicofmodes! Another new channel with two videos at the moment, but perhaps there will be more? Maybe about extant garments or pattern drafting or something?

Cluster Frock - I have only watched one video, but have been following her sewing blog for years and she does many different eras. Hopefully she’ll do some sewing videos! Mostly it looks like videos from costumed events so far.

Paul Malcolm - Only one video so far and it’s about 18th century covered buttons. Perhaps he will make more? 

Les Soirees Amusantes - I only just realized they had a youtube channel a minute ago, so haven’t watched any yet, but if their instagram is anything to go by then the videos probably feature people in beautifully made late 18th century costumes dancing, playing music, having tea, etc.

Dames a la Mode - @damesalamode Another one I haven’t watched any of yet, but it appears to be sewing videos and some fancy event stuff.

Redthreaded - A corset & stays company, so she’s got some videos and tutorials pertaining to that.

Jenny la Fleur - Yet another one I haven’t watched any of yet, but it appears to be mainly hairstyling with a bit of sewing.

Me… soonish.. I think? - That link is to a currently empty channel, but I really want to try my hand at making sewing videos. I put it as one of my goals for 2020 to make a video on death’s head buttons, because I get so many questions and comments about the buttons on my black & white c. 1790 coat, so I have started filming some clips for that. 

I want to do plain and multicoloured buttons in my video, so I still have some more to film, and then I have to learn how to edit videos, so I’ve no idea when it will happen but it will! I have already filmed the process of making the exact same buttons as the ones on the coat. 

And hopefully I shall film some sewing stuff also!

Feel free to add more suggestions!

Edit:

Elin Abrahamsson - Suggested by @graupig, thank you! Mostly medieval.

Gabriel’s Lament

Posting this here in reference to the previous ask, and because I apparently neglected to do so before.

________________________________

Be careful what you wish for. Wasn’t that the old saying? He hadn’t considered it before—never bothered to in the face of his wish. Because how could saving someone so wonderful and pure be a poor choice? How could acting out of love be wrong?

He had gotten his wish and seemed all the better for it. His wife was alive and by his side. His son was safe and had no secret life as a superhero nearly getting himself killed on a regular basis. And with his family whole and as it should be, Gabriel had no need to become a villain. He had no need for any Miraculous. As such, he had no concern that the Butterfly Miraculous was no longer in his possession—and may not have fallen into his possession in the first place. He had no need for it, after all. His wish was granted, his life was complete, and he finally felt satisfaction.

He was able to maintain that satisfaction for two months before it all started to fall apart.

A super villain appeared. One with the ability to turn people into monsters. One bearing the symbol of a butterfly. One calling himself Hawk Moth.

Only it wasn’t Gabriel.

He should have acted sooner. He should have thought things through. He had been too caught up in his own happiness that he hadn’t considered the full effects of the changes.

He got what he wanted. But it didn’t stay that way.

His wife was alive, but he was constantly at risk of losing her again with each time she tried to resolve the latest upset. Since she didn’t suffer her previous fate, she remained a hero and was regularly putting herself in danger to fight akumas that were no longer at his command.

His son wasn’t Chat Noir, which he had initially found relief in. But without the protection of the Miraculous, Adrien was more susceptible than Gabriel had realized, and he was now terrorizing Paris as an akuma under the mask of Chat Blanc while his wife desperately attempted to free him.

There was no Ladybug to hinder his plans, but now that they were complete, there was no Ladybug to save anyone and restore order either.

He no longer had the Butterfly Miraculous—or any Miraculous for that matter. He was forced to watch from the sidelines as his wife and son fought each other—completely incapable of doing anything and leaving him with a sense of powerlessness that he hadn’t felt since losing Emilie the first time.

He thought he had won. He HAD won. He had finally gained both Miraculous and used their combined power to complete his one goal. After all of that effort, after all that heartache, he thought that was the end of it. But it’s never that easy, is it? He’d gotten his wish, but not how he wanted. This new life was a mess. His family was in tatters. He was helpless to act.

And the only thing worse was being stuck here with the cat.

“I can hear you, you know.”

God, he hated that cat.
