40k Crackship Idea: Titus x the Warp Power Source
To my uk trans people and allies out there.
Are Flawless Blades basically just streamers for daemonic audiences?
Anyways, I have a new headcanon.
40k is just an inherently homoerotic setting.
I've begun reading the Horus Heresy, and despite some of the authors intentions and descriptions of various women to make the book "straight", it is wildly homoerotic. Every time a primarch or astartes is described it would probably be less gay if they just had gay sex. Needless to say it's quite enjoyable
I think the Dark Angels would probably also have Watcher In The Dark plushies. They're just some little guys.
So I had this idea for some drawings I might do in the future, since my warhammer brainrot has come back.
I remember when I did a sleepy chibi Lion El'Jonhson, during a conversation with a friend, she said he needed a sleeping buddy, a lion knight plushie.
That got me thinking lately..
What if each loyalist legion has their own line of plushies for sale? Like merch!
Their main purpose is as imperium propaganda for kids, but i also thought it would be an interesting source of revenue for a chapter of space marines to have, as well as serving for comfort for the children of the Imperium since the 42nd Millenium isn't very nice all around.
However there are a few questions about the plushies that i have:
- Little space marines are the most obvious answer, but I find that a little too boring, though I think some space marine plushies probably already exist in canon
- Little animal buddies, based off ancient Terran animals and myths, but in space marine armor, while I like this idea, there's a problem with it, not all legions have a clear animal motif I can think of:
Dark Angels - Lions
White Scars - Horses (?)
Space Wolves - Wolves
Imperial Fists - ???
Blood Angels - ???
Iron Hands - ???
Ultramarines - Eagles (?)
Salamanders - Dragons
Raven Guard - Ravens/Corvids
Are they just little guys in space marine armor?
Are there different version of the plushie for different ranks?
Could the plushies each have a common trade amongst imperial citizens (like a farmer or factory worker) instructing children abt those vital roles in the functioning of the Imperium?
Or perhaps they could instruct the different jobs one might have within a space marine chapter, like apothetecary or librarian?
Maybe they each could symbolize a kind of world in the Imperium, like the Dark Angel's represents the Feudal Worlds, the Space Wolves' represent the Death Worlds, etc..?
I honestly find the last 2 ideas very interesting, but I do want to know what people think about this idea in general
Here's an image to examplify the kind of cute plushie vibe of thought these guys would have:
Thank you all for enjoying my rant about plushies and 40k ৻( •̀ ᗜ •́ ৻)
Fulgrim's fall wasn't from the Imperium to Chaos.
It was from "It is your duty to raise them up, as high as they will go. Anything less is not worthy of you" to "What we have won is already being given away to imperfect mortals who will waste the glories we won for them".
Whispered: volume
Said softly: tone
I know adverbs are controversial, but "said softly" means something different than "whispered" and this is the hill I will die on.
It's okay, the glue trap will turn into him soon enough.
new models have been announced so naturally here is lucius the eternal dying in a gluetrap
Captain Sheridan, Dan Randall, ISN News. Thank goodness, someone reasonable to talk to.
Context: the French high-speed rail system is called the TGV, short for Train a Grande Vitesse.
Ships are King George V (real) and Bourgogne (paper ship/designed but never built)
In Messages For Dad, Vulkan has a son named Janan. Janan inherits two good things from his father: his mind and his immortality. He was also born incredibly prematurely (twenty-three weeks), and highly mutated due to the primarch DNA, needing to be constantly on painkillers that would kill a normal child his size. He has "entangled organs ingrown with bones", and a lot of other things. His regeneration also means that any surgery done to treat his condition doesn't work, since he just grows back.
He eventually decides to inter himself in a specially-designed dreadnought (which he designed himself), using fulgrite to halt his regeneration so the dreadnought can slowly disentangle his organs and rework his body so he's not in constant pain--all over the course of about ten thousand years. All this was stuff he came up with himself, too--he *definitely* inherited his father's brain.
Do you know who posted the suggestion about a Primarch- kid instead of being strong and like their fathers ending up horribly ill and fragile because the Primarchs do have kind of fucked DNA?
Because that gave me so many brainworms fr fr, just have been thinking for weeks of giving Bobby G a small spitfire of a kid that kicks ass despite the cards stacked against them and making their dad most likely turn prematurely grey with worry
The one that comes to mind is Callahan from @jaghatai-khock. He has some allergy and would get sick when around Lion.
I know there was someone discussing how screwed up primaech DNA would be when mixed with baselines, but I can not recall who.
Anyone else know?
Femboys, Warhammer 40,000, Battleships, and whatever else crosses my mind
