“No I don’t wanna leave!” Anyone relating to baby Xander at the moment?

More Zellard? More Zellard.

Got more Zellard pics for everyone. This shit is great for ref art.

A sfw cut of some Zellard shenanigens. It’s pretty clear dragons are more my forte. Nonetheless I had to draw this bastart Wyvarian. Let’s just say you don’t want to be stuck with him while he has a knife. 

The world is bleeding

The meat moss got them. 😞 This picture was distantly inspired by Amnesia Rebirth, a pretty solid follow up to TDD. IF you have played the game, then you may know what this picture is referring to.

Ok so like if the argument is “Rauru questionable”… why? Why is he questionable? Because he’s powerful?

Ganondorf attacked him and he responded with restrained self defense. Ganondorf lobbed thinly veiled insults at him and his mixed race marriage in his own home, and Rauru responded with patient diplomacy.

One of the points made in the “Hyrule is imperialist” comments is the assumption that Rauru inviting Ganondorf and the Gerudo to join his kingdom basically amounted to a threat… except that’s really obviously not the case?

Rauru didn’t conquer them even after they attacked him. He didn’t conquer anybody. None of the other lands are under Hylian control. They all have their own leadership. They all manage their own resources. In BotW King Dorephan refers to Hylians as the Zora’s allies… not their masters.

Rauru established an alliance, not an empire.

People are concerned, saying “I hate how the other races are subservient to Hylians” except… they’re not. They don’t follow the royal family of Hyrule unquestioningly.

To get help from the other people, Zelda still had to make diplomacy trips and convince them to aid her. Convince them. Not command them. They’re loyal to her because she shows them the respect they deserve and is dedicated to caring for and protecting everyone. She’s not entitled to rule like Ganondorf thinks he is, people follow her because she’s a good leader and it seems to be the same with Rauru. He shared his immense power with others and sacrificed himself to protect everyone from being subjugated by Ganondorf.

Reading Rauru or Zelda as imperialist or Hyrule as an oppressive empire requires ignoring practically all of the canon text and projecting a number of things. So… why do people keep pushing that extremely shallow reading?

Call Nintendo out on its bullshit, by all means! The series has improved over the years because people voiced their legitimate concerns in the past. I just think this whole “imperialist propaganda” argument is completely off base and I really wish the people saying this stuff would pay more attention to the deliberate efforts Nintendo’s made to diversify the Hyrule royal family and the world of Hyrule at large.

Merry Christmas from Brennenburg!

Bebe Xander wishes you all a safe holiday from the warmth of his stocking.

Zellard Headcanons Pt. 2

Some more headcanons for our favorite bastard 

- In Rutoh village, Zellard is the village baby sitter. He has enough patience to handle roudy children. Zellard often acts as their mentor as well. 

-Zellard’s ears are his weak point. If you can reach them, give them a good rub and he’ll be blissed out in no time. His ears flutter when he’s happy too.

-Though Zellard was once a powerful hunter, after retiring he sold most of his weapons and armor. Some items were given to old friends or displayed in his house, a distant reminder of his past. 

-Zellard doesn’t speak much about his past and keeps his emotions to himself. He only provides his opinions when he deems it needed. Instead Zellard prefers to speak on current matters as to deflect any unwanted questions about himself. 

-He was once more open to others, but that was long ago... Red was one of the few humans he ever vented to, the young human being one of his few friends in his later years. We know how that ended.... 

-Thanks to his long life, Zellard has plenty of skills. Drawing, poetry, and lute playing are some of the things he does in his spare time. Sometimes he plays music to the children to get them to sleep. 

-Zellard himself is a light sleeper in part due to his years as an ever-alert hunter, and because of bad nightmares. He drinks soothing herbal tea to help his nerves, but doesn’t dare bring his struggles up to anyone. Besides, they don’t need to know, right? 

-Lastly, Zellard has a worldly taste, but he will always come back to Rutoh village’s classic crullers. Crullers aren’t just Alwin’s specialty, but a village tradition, and a snack the otherwise fit and athletic Zellard can’t resist. 

Embracing the light has its dangers…

An image for an upcoming Monster Hunter Stories fanfic. It appears as if Zellard couldn’t leave the dead alone and has met an unfortunate fate.

I’ve seen a lot of posts on my dash tonight about users who are threatening suicide, with other Tumblr members posting in effort to try to get ahold of them. I think you all should see this:

IF THERE IS EVER A TUMBLR USER WHO HAS POSTED A GOOD-BYE MESSAGE, SUICIDE NOTE, VIDEO, OR ANYTHING OF THE SORT, PLEASE FOLLOW THIS POST.

1. Scroll to the top of your dashboard.

2. See the circular question mark icon at the top? It’s the third one over from your home symbol. Click on that, and a screen similar to the one in the picture will come up.

3. Where you can type in questions, the box with the magnifying glass at the top, type in the word “suicide.”

4. Click on the first link that shows up. It should say, “Pass the URL of the blog on to us.”

5. Type in the user’s URL and tell Tumblr admin that the user is contemplating suicide and has posted a message indicating that they are going through with it or will be attempting. Hit send! Tumblr administration will perform a number of actions to contact the user and take the necessary steps to prevent the suicide.

TUMBLR: THIS COULD SAVE A USER’S LIFE. PLEASE DO NOT IGNORE SUICIDE THREATS.

Reblog this to keep other users aware. Suicide isn’t a joke, and neither is someone’s life. If you didn’t know this, someone else may not, either. Pass it on.
