likewise, you can't make loyalty lord/vassal or warrior or whatever cute. the dominance element is potent. the abnegation of the self is erotic, but it isn't wholesome.

Loyalty trope kink should have something foul to it. If someone is acting like a guard/attack dog there should be a sinking feeling of alienation or dread. It's your duty to make it hot but making it cute is a crime.
i’m so happy people are finally talking about how evil cozy d&d style fantasy is where every character is a milquetoast liberal who is fine enough with queers and women and people of color to never be #problematic but there’s a monarchy, essentialist race, and subhuman invaders that need killing
I shall read more, to have more themes for overdramatic art. Here goes one for #silmarillion , last stand of Maedhros and Maglor againts Valar forces :3
hello hi heres a WIP of my maglordaughter oc Vinyëlirë (unsure if i've yapped abt her on here)
girl get in we’re doing mean shit to the elf like forcing him to come and then punishing him for doing that without permission. just go ahead and call out of work tomorrow we need to spend all day beating the shit out of him
Maglor from last year ♡ (Tattoos are Elrond and Elros on his collarbones and Elladan, Elrohir and Arwen on his arm) #silmarillion #maglor
my inability to be concise enough for a post strikes again
big noses, my beloved. shoutout to hooked noses, aquiline noses, sharp noses, wide noses, severe noses. those are some sexy noses
![there’s a 1970s essay by an early feminist art historian where she says that when people smugly ask “well, why have there been no great women artists?” the feminist urge is to pull out rare examples of woman painters and argue that they should be included in the canon of great art but that this actually obscures the fact that women often were not artists because systemic factors kept them from those opportunities and so pulling out the rare exceptions is sort of a denial of the reality of patriarchy and i think representation can be a similar denial where the urge merely to have [blank] included with all other context both within the work and about its making collapsed produces very poor analysis](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:6pjo2wpqfsbpdhbt3berqg3k/bafkreicjcdykppnwsjp4s2d7lbm6dc55gfqcuqik5rdmedrrbfevsto4ru)
Keeping up my ‘remembering to post art here’ streak, here is some Elrond and Celebrían cheek kissing, ie me practicing a semi realistic style! #silmarillion #silmart #elrond #celrond #lotr
Dostoevskij was crazy when he wrote Raskol'nikov. Crazy.
if there is one thing i am sure of it’s the fëanorian propensity for making titles and honorifics derogatory. i just know that fëanáro somehow injected an ability to say the words “my lord” in such a way that it sounds like a slur into that bloodline
remember when Rhaenyra tongue kissed Mysaria the White Worm, because I blocked out almost everything else from that series s2 but that bit got seared into my corneas
elizabeth from del toro's frankenstein and luthien can go frolick in fields hand in hand, with the caveat that elizabeth is still the most interesting character in the movie and luthien the emptiest excuse of a husk developing the embryo of a personality only when it's time to fuck a man
Latest commission: Maedhros Fëanorian in his Treelit Little Shit™️ era, ie arrogant Years of the Trees prince for feyandferal on Tumblr. Truly went wild with the hair for ‘this guy is literally called Carrots for half his life’ reasons 😈🥕 #silmarillion #silmart #lotr #tolkien
