Help, I was going through pintrest for Puss in Boots from Shrek 2 and the Last Wish, and in the comments of one picture, someone said that Puss in Boots is the definition of Firestar looks wise. Now, all I can think of and hear is Firestar with Antonio Banderas voice!

I did not change any color when I stuck his face onto this book cover

Perhaps they ought not to have eaten the dragon. There had been people objecting to it at the time. Surely such meat was poisonous. Perhaps it was even an affront, an insult to some intangible order of nature they ought to honour.

But the city was starving, the siege had gone on too long, and the king's troops were still a week's march away. The scorched earth would be fertile again in time, but right now it was barren. Right now there were mouths to feed. So they changed their crossbows for butcher knives and got to work.

None of the royal commanders asked any questions that could not be answered. After all, their aid had come shamefully late. The dragon's horned skull made a noble gift, a fitting tribute from a triumphant city to its humbled king. Who would have thought to question them?

And none of the townsfolk spoke up, when the first golden-eyed babes were born. Children who grew up barefoot and fearless, clambering over the city's patched and rebuilt roofs like they had no notion of falling, with a strange glitter to their skin when the sunlight hit it just so. No one breathed a word about dragons.

Because soon enough there were deft, young hands taking loaves straight out of the oven, heedlessly lifting iron from the forge, plunging into boiling laundry water. And some of them more wondrous still, wild, warm-skinned youths, with inexplicable knowledge and peculiar remedies.

A blessing, their families said proudly. A blessing after so much hardship. Which it was, in its way. This city would never fear dragon fire again.

the worst thing about writing or any kind of craft is having an idea you're really excited to make a reality but then you sit down and realize how much work it's going to take to get to that point and suddenly you feel like those two little gay guys in the mountain in the lord of the rings

Great Mouse Detective version of Dracula happening simultaneously as the events of Dracula, so there’s just five mice in Victorian clothes unnoticed by the human cast desperately trying to kill a bat.

Obsessed with this. It’s so true

Calvin's parents decide to take a Hawai'ian vacation. They're not sure how much of it their son will tolerate but they would like to do at least a few things that involve sandy beaches and scenic cycling routes. They are therefore pleased when Calvin seems to make friends with a local girl about his own age and the two of them run off to play

Now, from Calvin's point of view what has happened is that he spotted actual aliens, and starts trying to bring this to the attention if the adults. But the tourists are like, "that's nice, go shoot 'em with your water gun, have a good time," and the locals are like, "yeah, they're an older couple who decided to retire here. Happens all the time." Eventually, it becomes clear that Spaceman Spiff is going to have to handle it himself.

From Lilo's point of view, Jumba and Pleakley are her gay uncles, do you mind? Calvin does mind, and so the two of them spend the rest of the afternoon terrorizing Kaua'i in the effort to destroy one another while the aliens alternate between bailing them out of trouble and attempting to escape.

Hobbes and Stitch, meanwhile, are calmly playing checkers and drinking non-alcoholic margaritas.

You are a witch who personifies the very idea of coldness and solitude. Your sister, who personified harmony and community and you secretly hated bc she talked too much, passes away and her successor is a young naive witch who somehow talks even more. Being a master of manipulation, you conspire with your other sisters to get rid of her. Said sisters are 1) an old lady who somehow insults everyone to their faces in a way that you can’t retaliate against and postpones the murder plot because she’s eepy, 2) a goth so committed to being a bitch twenty four seven that it affects her ability to effectively carry out said murder, and 3) a titty AND crotch-out hippie who is down for the murder but also sees it as her magical right to eat anyone who walks faster than a light jog. Every day Indri Witch of the Wind and Stars wakes up

Currently thinking ab Traitor by Matthew Stover as a parallel to Dante’s Inferno

Both are about the main character going through the lands of the dead and emerging as new, enlightened people.

Vergere & Virgil are both guides through the land of the dead (their names are even similar!)

The embrace of pain is limbo

Lust, I don’t know, I’m looking for answers for this one.

Gluttony is the garden of the Dhuryams

Greed is the mouth/stomach/worm thing that those people are living in.

Anger is when Vergere ‘betrays’ Jacen to Nom Amir and the Vong warriors and he fills the room with force lighting

Heresy is when Jacen learns the truth that there is no light or dark side of the force

Violence is when Ganner fights hundreds of Vong at once.

Fraud is when Jacen fakes a defection to the side of the Vong.

Treachery is when Jacen and the world brain work together to subvert the Vong.

My main question now is, who are the three in the heads of the devil? One option is that the three are Jacen, Vergere and Nom Anor, as they are the three the book is primarily about, but this is the easy answer. Anakin Skywalker could be one of the heads, as he is famously a traitor, though he did not stay one his entire life. Jacen is likely one as well. Who else could be?
