I wish she who became the sun had a movie or series so I could make edits I have so many in my head my fingers are shaking with the urge to create
YES ABSOLUTELY HED BE SO FLUSTERED AND HONORED HED LOVE IT
Spelldon definitely is a gift person and the two of them would end of spoiling each other so much
My least favorite part of having a small social media platform isnt even the number of likes I get it’s just that nobody leaves comments 😭 like please talk to me
I have a headcanon for Spelldon.
Don (I nicknamed him that) speaks Italian as well as Greek (he and Casta are half Italian)
That’s so cute! I love that. I think he’d be able to speak Ancient and modern Greek, too, but he uses Ancient Greek more because of his family.
He thinks in Ancient Greek because he grew up speaking it on Aeaea. He talks to himself in Ancient Greek, he counts in Ancient Greek, etc. Val learns it for him.
I never really thought about the Italian thing but it makes a bunch of sense (especially since people think Aeaea is in/near the Italian coastline). Maybe his father is an Italian sailor.
please remember that a ceasefire has not been reached yet and that israel's attacks have actually recently ramped up. people are also still being starved. combat this by donating to gaza soup kitchen
I love how the Kieran Valentine and specifically the Love Spell (Kieran x Spelldon) fandom has flourished in the past few years
Like I remember like 3 years ago looking on AO3 for fanfics and there were two. Only two fanfics, and one of them was in Spanish, and once I finished the English one, i went and put the Spanish one through an online translator so that I could read about kieran Valentine and his never-debuted witch crush
And now, as of December 26th, 2023, at 6 PM Eastern Standard, there are 27. More than 2 dozen. If you read one chapter of each a day, it would take you (yes I did the math) 89 days. 3 months.
Which is 1012% higher than when I started writing
That’s insane. Just in 3 years there’s been so much growth and it’s such a nice little niche
tbh i don't think people really understand how dire the water situation is in the west bank. the last time i was in palestine, i could only shower once a month. ONCE A MONTH. we simply did not have enough water to sustain my whole family, because israel controls palestinians' water supply and does not give us enough to sustain ourselves in the long run. plus the water isn't very clean so it was very easy to get sick all the time. when we say that "palestinians drink more olive oil than water", it's not genuinely such a silly hyperbole as you might think.
My latest comic for The Nib was written by my friend Mike Thompson- it’s his first published comics work!
The Nib has been a steady source of income and a huge support to me and many other indie cartoonists for years. They publish amazing work, but will be cut loose by their financial backer in July. You can read the official post about it from editor Matt Bors here. They are still running their kickstarter-funded print magazine, but have to put digital publishing on hiatus until they figure out their next steps. If you’ve been thinking about supporting their membership program, now would be a good time. They have levels from $2 to $40 per month. I really don’t want this to be my last Nib piece!

Why am I just now realizing that Lilith’s surname is a play on Van Helsing
Torelai wasn’t attacked by the witches in France because she’s a monster it was because she’s British
Me with Kieran Valentine lmao I have so many headcanons for him that fit well for me and nobody else
don’t ever talk to me or my 4500000000 niche AUs ever again
In honor of the eclipse:
Helios sending Circe to Aeaea for killing her husband, and then in the same breath giving her brother said husband’s kingdom
Helios who killed his daughter’s attacker the moment he realized she couldn’t chase him away on her own, killing him before he could lay a hand on her
Helios who saved Hephaestus during the Gigantomachy, and who gave his “thank you” gift to his son
Helios who threatened to drive the sun chariot into the Underworld because Odysseus’ crew ate his favorite cattle. Helios who threatened ZEUS.
Helios who wanted to ease Demeter’s suffering of being separated from a beloved daughter, and told her where she was taken
Helios who rides his father-in-law’s river in a CUP. Every. Night.
