When Is The Next Wedding?

Saw this and wanted to sketch, so I did.

Looks alright ig.

Hmmm. Desi person weighing in. I have read Lore Olympus and Trials of Apollo.

In Trials of Apollo, Apollo is depicted as a God of many talents who was unlucky with love, yet his attitude towards others could somewhat lead to this failure in finding love. He is seen as someone who admired mortal aptitude for the arts yet was also someone who thought of mortals and demigods as things to observe like a human observing a gerbil. He comes to admire the bravery that demigods show and also realises that even among places like Olympus and the island of Delos he has never really had a place he could truly call "Home" and his family is quite disfunctional.

Artemis is seen as someone who simply doesn't feel romantic love but understands it's power. She is not comfortable with skin-ship yet will try to comfort her brother when she can.

Zeus is seen as a somewhat manipulating person who holds his own interests first as he feels that they are logical this must be respected.

Piper McLean, daughter of Aphrodite, sees and despises how her mother is underestimated. She tries her best to understand her mother and does respect her intentions.

For this, I do respect how Riordan has portrayed the Olympians and the original PJO series has little to do with the Olympians and more with the specific demigods and their stories. So I don't think he deserves the flak. Rachel is something else entirely.

I HATE PEOPLE FUCKING POSTING ABOUT THE GREEK GODS

The next time I see someone say Hades is "actually a cinnamon roll" I am starting a fucking fight. No. Fuck no. Go fuck yourself. The popularization of actual deities as silly little characters is disgusting and go take a minute to learn about hellenic culture and religion please and thanks.

The gods are not fun characters for you to assign whatever personalities you want to. Just about every media representation of the hellenic gods is so far off it's not even recognizable. You wanna talk about the gods' personalities then go listen to some hellenic pagans and polytheists who can offer more modern but still respectful answers

If someone called me a ten, I'd take it as the greatest insult ever. I'm an infinity. Everyone knows that.

I love evelynn but if she can take any form why not make her brown? Most witches are described as either deathly pale or of the darkness and earth. If you made her brown like Karma to show how deeply connected to the shadows she looks and this would lower the contrast between her and her shade form while making the transition easier on the eyes. Is there a way to mess with the settings so a character's skin looks brown like with the contrast or brightness levels or something?

I think the Coven skins look great, but upon seeing them side by side they’re literally all the same white woman

This fandom is insane.

Gonna reblog this so you can see more notes. This post needs them.

Anyway, sarees are a cultural garment of South Asia and have nothing to do with religion. If you aren't Desi then don't wear them unless you're among us. As in actually in South Asia, or visiting or living among a South Asian diaspora community, at a Desi cultural event or religious space, or any instance where a Desi person invites you to wear them. Those cases are simply cultural assimilation, which is a mark of respect, so you're very welcome. Some Desi people might be uncomfortable with it if you're wearing it as a cultural showcase, like a Bollywood dance on stage, and they're allowed to be. It goes without saying that this also applies to lehenga and shalwar kameez, although those are widespread in Middle Eastern culture as well, so those dress rules can be extended to those spaces in the same way.

Cultural appropriation is primarily an immigrant and diaspora minority issue. Not that it doesn't impact the people living in our native countries, but its effects are felt first and foremost by the ones who actually have to integrate into white society.

Do buy sarees from South Asian designers and sellers, if you have appropriate events where other people will also be wearing them. That's cultural patronage. Make your own dresses out of the saree cloth. That's cultural exchange.

And if you're confused about what a white person is, it's a white-skinned person of European origin. Not whether someone is pale or tan. Hope that helps. 🌸🌸🌸🤗

White people please reblog. Thank you.

Damn, Caitlyn, what did you get yourself into?

It’s kind of funny to think that Caitlyn’s plan was to just interview the tattoo goon from the airship about who he worked for and then a few days later ended up neck deep in the family drama of the single mind behind the Undercity’s organized crime that she was looking for, his mentally ill daughter who HATES her, and her estranged sister who is a prisoner that Caitlyn broke out of jail when she couldn’t interview tattoo goon because said estrange sister broke his jaw.

Leading to Caitlyn breaking the estrange sister out of prison only to learn she is a highly regarded figure in the Undercity due to her and her sister’s adopted father being the former mob boss in charge. However, he was killed by the current mob boss after said prisoner’s sister severely injured their adopted father and killed their two brothers in an attempt to save her family by using the Hextech crystals they stole from Caitlyn’s family’s beneficiary and really her only friend from the current mob boss’s first human-shimmer monster.

And all of THIS essentially boils down to a shouting match between the mob boss and sister fighting over who loves the insane teenage girl more, despite the fact that she has kidnapped all of them and has made it very clear that she is a very dangerous and unstable individual.

Oh, and this family drama will have major consequences for not just the Undercity, but Piltover and a good chunk of the world; because said mentally ill teenage girl is a genius who figured out Hextech and created a shark rocket and has just fired it at the council, because she has once again accidently killed her father and now Caitlyn’s mom is definitely going to die, because Caitlyn didn’t want to shoot the mentally ill teenager because Caitlyn is falling for her sister.

And again, all Caitlyn wanted to do was interview some random thug and prove herself as a detective and now she has untold amounts of trauma to deal with.

Caitlyn: I’m going to interview this prisoner and prove myself as a detective.
