For Those Of You Who Have Read Scythe By Neal Shusterman AND Know The Life Series, Hear Me Out Here:

I drew Emilee Petersmark of The Crane Wives :D

I can’t find the reference picture I used so sorry 😭

This was my first time trying to draw anything even mildly realistic and it actually came out well! (It is a picture from my sketchbook so it’s not the best image quality)

(Yes, the color’s off on the bottom left. I had to scribble out my signature because ✨ online safety ✨)

Whats your favorite crane wives album?? rn or in general

I was gonna ask fav song but that might be just too hard to pick lmao

Definitely TFIHWG, I love it SO much (I may or may not have every song in that album memorized-) (well that's the case for their entire discography soooo)

Favorite song...ummm, gotta be Canary in a Coal Mine or Here I Am

Or Back to the Ground

Or Once & for All

Or Easier

As you said it's hard to choose 😭

“Two birds on a wire

One tries to fly away, and the other

Watches him close from that wire

He says he wants to as well, but he is a liar”

As evil as Darkstalker was, I think he deserved better. All he tried to do was protect Clearsight, Foeslayer, and Whiteout. Sure, he did it in some…i n t e r e s t i n g ways that were definitely not ok or even necessary , but maybe he could’ve been the savior everyone needed, if only Arctic had treated them better.

(I have read Darkstalker’s book about five times, btw. I’ve lost count at this point)

I made things!

So…Martyn’s latest Misadventures episode, huh?? The FLASHBACKS I had.

Martyn’s Misadventures episode “The Man of Many Guilds” (the latest one) spoilers ahead! The fact that Sausage warned Martyn that his death was going to be painful, but this was what was needed for Martyn to have permission to kill people?

The way that Martyn stood crouched with his head bowed as Sausage killed him, and how his last words before Sausage hit him were “this feels familiar”? Martyn was on the receiving end this time.

I’m going crazy.

Is it just me or does Ren's area in exile look like an aged, rotted version of Dogwarts...?

Theatre tips!!

Just some helpful theatre tips from one theatre person to another to help you along your theatre journey :D

Line set, stage, and large props with glow tape! This is very important to keep your cast and crew safe during blackout. The best way to charge them is to move a flashlight back and forth on the tape, it only takes a few seconds.

If you're working backstage, make a list of scenes in order, what props/set pieces are involved, and who's moving them - this helps SO MUCH during dress rehearsals.

Have a crew meeting every rehearsal if possible to help keep communication up. This includes EVERYONE in crew (props, lights, sound, set, costumes, etc.)

Don't give up if you don't get a part you auditioned for! There are still so many ways to be involved and just because you did not get a role does not mean you can't act. Keep going.

You don't have to have any experience in technical theatre to join stage crew! You will learn very quickly and your directors will help you with anything.

Don't be afraid to be bossy, especially if you're in a leading position! You can have fun but you also need to keep things in line.

It is ok to be yourself. Don't let others define you.

Although you don't have to, try your best to learn as many names as you can. Even if that means referring to them as their role name. They will respond to it, lol. (I have started responding to "costumes")

IT IS OK TO CRY. Theatre means struggle. It means emotions and goodbyes. But it also means fulfillment and finding your people. It is ok to cry. <3

The sound goblins must have batteries for the microphones. Or else the sound goblins cannot do sound goblin things and people will be sad but they will be sad quietly. We want them to be sad loudly.

Feel free to add any more!

All the lonely people,

where do they all come from?

All the lonely people…

where do they all belong?

I made this piece for @sparkbirdmusic a while ago, and now that I have Tumblr, I can finally post it! They probably won’t see it, but it’s always worth a shot!

Spark, if you are seeing this, I really hope you like it!! :)
