Kind Of Strange How The Season Martyn Won Was The Only Season Ren Was Not In.

Drew this quick thing based on @karmaandsin’s Grian poem :D

Arguably the best image on my phone

I sure hope my favorite musician doesn't hit me with lazers today!

The nefarious sparkbird:

For those of you who have read Scythe by Neal Shusterman AND know the Life series, hear me out here:

Scar as a Scythe. The man so afraid to kill now the one sentenced to bring death to every. Single. Person.

And his final test would be to redo Third Life, same ending fight and everything, except this time, he wins.

I don't care who does it, I just need this to exist 😭

I have an idea.

It’s an Empires AU based on the version of the song The Dark-Eyed Sailor from The Dragon Prince by Atillion (link and lyrics below cut).

After the fall of Empires, the ocean’s collapse is slowly causing Jimmy and Lizzie to lose their souls, since they’re so attached to the water. They lose all memory of being Seablings and now all they want is power and control over what’s left of the ocean. Its fall has also torn them of almost all their powers, meaning that neither of them can breathe underwater anymore.

So they fight.

Even from the start, the battle is hopeless. Lizzie is infinitely more powerful than Jimmy and they both know that she will win.

Yet Jimmy still fights.

Lizzie ruthlessly attacks him, weakening him to the point where he can barely swim, yet he still fights, because only he should rule the ocean.

There are several points at which Jimmy almost drowns, but his need for power pushes him forward. He’s able to do a fair amount of damage to Lizzie, but it was never enough.

After hours of draws, Lizzie is able to hold him under the water with her trident. His last words when he is still above the surface are, “The sea shall bow to me!”

Jimmy, the codfather, brother of the ocean queen, has drowned.

Lizzie wins, as they both knew she always would.

But there is nothing more to rule, for her empire has fallen.

Woe to the man, the dark-eyed sailor

Ship's adrift and the sea's his jailor

Drag him down,

Down, down, down

Down in the wicked depths below

Lost at sea, the sailor cried

I will not drown, and I will not die

The ocean's rule I dare defy

The sea shall bow to me!

Woe to the man, the dark-eyed sailor

Ship's adrift and the sea's his jailor

Drag him down,

Down, down, down

Down in the wicked depths below

The fog pressed in, the ice did freeze

The sails caught nary a whisper'd breeze

But to his pride the sailor seized

The sea shall bow to me!

Woe to the man, the dark-eyed sailor

Ship's adrift and the sea's his jailor

Drag him down,

Down, down, down

Down in the wicked depths below

The ship it sank, its hull full tore

The sailor he could swim no more

But even as he drowned, he swore

The sea shall bow to me!

Woe to the man, the dark-eyed sailor

Ship's adrift and the sea's his jailor

Drag him down,

Down, down, down

Down to the depths

Drown in the depths

Drown in the wicked depths below

First post!

I'm brand new to Tumblr, so I'd like to briefly introduce myself! I'm Winter and am hoping to be posting some of my art on here soon! It will be mainly focused on Hermitcraft and the Life series, though there will be some others mixed in there as well. My main fandoms are Hermitcraft, Star Wars, HTTYD, The Magnus Archives, and Wings of Fire and my favorite music artists are The Crane Wives, Sparkbird, and Rabbitology. I'm so happy to be here and can't wait to see where this'll go. Take care of yourselves!

TYSM 😭😭 ahhh you have no idea how happy reading this made me thank you so so much (also I don't know how to comment on a reblog so uh..rereblog it is lol)

A dragon puppet I finished a couple nights ago! :D It is based on Gem’s red Secret Life skin because yes (more specifically, @lonksadventures’ version of it because I love that version)

Can we talk about how well most Crane Wives songs fit the Life series???

For example, Shallow River for DL!Pearl:

"May the whole sky fall/May it all come down/Wasted all for the title/Wasted all for the crown"

Little Soldiers for Dogwarts:

"I fought with tooth and nail before the flag had flown, but you were already gone"

Canary in a Coal Mine:

Do I even have to explain?

October for Scott and Jimmy:

"Come my dear and be a part of my home/Missing stitch and flowers on a headstone"

The Well for the Ranchers:

"That old house, those rotting memories, burned easier than I'd have thought"

Allies or Enemies for Desert Duo:

"Are we allies or enemies?/This will be the death of me, this will be the death of me/All is fair in love and war, but I can't fight with you anymore/This will be the death of me"

The Hand That Feeds for TL!Martyn:

Pretty self-explanatory

Once & for All for the Red King:

"Dodge bullets and fire spray, my blood's forever on your hands/When my ghost sings my battle cry, you'll be too sorry to dance"

And that's only a handful. It's terrifying how many more there are.

You should go check them out if you haven't already. I will drag you into this Crane Wives obsession with me and you will never escape. *cackles in nerd*

A quick fWhip drawing because he deserves more attention :)

“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)
