Me, in the summer heat, taking 2 points of fire damage every second: aeugh aeugh aeugh ough eough ough eaugh
Here is my addition to Mermay! The rulers of the seas, Rån(Rán) and her husband Æge(Ægir). They are both jotuns but I based their design on the Vetter(a collective term for all magical creatures from Scandinavian folklore)Marmennil(Æge) and Margygr(Rån).
Marmennil(Mar = Sea, Mennil = Old man) looks like tiny mermen but they either have the face of an old man(some telling they have the face of a child). They are benevolent and will reward fishers for their kindness. (Like giving them pieces of clothing like a sock, glove, or a hat. They get cold lol) They can see into the future, warn fishers of incoming disasters, and show them good fishing spots.
Æge is a pretty chill fellow. He is mostly known for throwing parties for the Norse gods.
Margygr(Mar = Sea, Gygr = female term for a jotun/troll) is the murderhobo of the sea, and their favorite hobby is drowning young seafarers. They are a bad omen and usually show up before a terrible storm. If they throw a fish in the seafarer's boat it means there will be many casualties or a shipwreck. If she eats the fish there might still be hope for the men.
Rån is the complete opposite of Æge, she views humans as trespassers and uses her net to trap and drown seafarers with the help of her and Æge's nine daughters. Himinglæva, Duva, Blodughadda, Herving, Unn, Ronn, Bylga, Båra and Kolga.(Their names all mean "Wave" lol. They are also all the mothers of Heimdall.)

Playing around with a new brush💖

reblog this if your blog is a safe space on april fools and won’t have any jumpers, screamers, or anything scary or anxiety inducing
I Was digging through some of my old art folders and came across these two sketches of Marcy and PB.(Drew them a looong ass time ago lol)
I was suddenly struck by nostalgia! I used to have old VHS tapes with episodes of Rainbow Brite.🌈
was a mistake
Another unforgivable crime of the French. Truly a blighted nation
France is now, always has been, and always will be a mistake.
its official: tumblr is selling our data to Midjourney
we'd been hearing rumors about this for a bit but now its open and out there. some details from this article
it goes without saying, but if @staff goes through with this its going to be an utter shitshow and im all but certain the website will not survive it.
everyone go enable this immediately. it can be a bit hard to find because visibility is under blog settings instead of general settings or privacy. you have to do this individually for each separate side-blog
if you can’t find it on the app then the update probably hasn’t rolled out to you, and you’ll have to go through the web browser. truly, what a wild way to implement this
He wasn't the only one on the ship... 🥚🥚🥚
