mr eaten did nothing wrong
speak on it
“what’s your writing process” i put a pathetic guy in a blender and blend blend blend
No nuance and no vanilla extract option.
"P drowns in PELIGIN, the colour of the deepest zee. V marks VIOLANT when blood is shed in a spired place. A wakes APOCYAN, the blue of memory and brightest coral. Behind your mirror, V names VIRIC, the colour of shallow sleep. C lights COSMOGONE, the colour of remembered suns. I is for IRRIGO. No one remembers why. G is lost in GANT, which remains when all other colours are eaten." -- Pages from 'The Neathbow', Sunless Sea
Here they are! All seven fountain pen inks I've picked for the Neathbow.
Peligin: Diamine Tempest (dark, dark, dark blue with lots of gold shimmer and a slight red sheen)
Violant: Diamine Polar Glow (electric blue with an intense red sheen)
Apocyan: Diamine Spearmint Diva (teal with silver shimmer and a slight pink sheen)
Viric: Diamine Neon Lime (lime green with lots of silver shimmer)
Cosmogone: Diamine Citrus Ice (bright orange with lots of silver shimmer)
Irrigo: Diamine Pansy (violet with gold-black sheen)
Gant: Dominant Industry Downpour (warm gray, no sheen, no shimmer)
Of all these inks, Downpour is my favorite. It might look like a nothing ink next to all the sheeners and shimmerers, but it has lovely shading and is easy on the eyes. I use it every day for doodling.
Keep in mind that as per Failbetter's own words, the Neathbow is actually quite variable in how it appears, given that its colors are a) unreal, and b) colors. This selection is just my personal interpretation (with a few grabbed from Bruno's unofficial list), and it is not any more "correct" than others. Feel free to assemble your own tasting flight of Neathbow inks if you have the means.
All drawings were done with a Duke 209 (fude nib). Good god, I never want to change out so much ink ever again.
Based off a real in-game experience.
Bonus: the aftermath
Didn't pay my dark bill so the power company shut my lights on
A shimmer in the distance, a mirage on the horizon, a visage spied upon in dreams. Though the streets of London may come to their labyrinthine end, the roads of Parabola twist to their own tune. There, silk flows like water, colors shift with the turning of the mind, and fashion is as mutable as the moonlit sky. Gowns of impossible fabric, suits woven from shadow and starlight, within the realm of dreams, all is possible. Limitless potential flows through the fabric, and so too does it flow through you. You never know what might find - or what might reflect back upon you.
I present to you our newest theme: Parabola Elegance. What does that mean? That’s up to you! Gowns of viric and cosmogone, the attire worn while traversing the land of dreams, a truly impossible outfit, or a glimpse into your character’s Reflection - all interpretations are welcome
I'm planning on keeping submissions for this prompt open until at least the end of June. We’ll see how things go and extend if needed. There’s no pressure to finish quickly - dreams take time after all.
The general nature of the blog is the same as before, and can be read here in the pinned post, but simply put, any form of art with Fallen London Characters in fashion can be sent here to be shared, simply post it and tag this blog! Full rules are here
Lastly, a gentle reminder: while Reflections especially are a theme with a wide range of potential, I cannot accept submissions with explicit gore or body horror. This isn’t a moral judgment, just a needed preference of the one who runs this blog. (And to be clear: this does not include disability or atypical appearances. Those are joyfully accepted and encouraged.)
Feel free to ask any questions if you have any! Until then, happy fashion-ing ✨

opening flondon and realizing I don't really want to play, I want to roleplay. I want to write with my friends and form plots, that's the exciting thing about this game for me. and I'm always thinking about mine and my friends' OCs and how excited we get when talking about them and plotting, and I'm always writing and drawing and making art, inspired by what we make together.
so this is my humble call for more friends to go stupid over our little guys together plleaseoleaspkease. pleasee. new, old, any character and any of you! this community is so nice and brilliant and I want to create something with all of you - when I see all of your OCs I itch to know them. pplleaaaseeeee . look at him don't you want to know him
New Master OC. It's domain is Burger. Failbetter please hire me for more good ideas.
What Did The Thunder Say, Anyhow?
Felix goofing off at job no. 1, again. The thunder in these common dreams is fun to play with, especially from inside the storm. He’s a competent Silverer, though, if you can get him to actually do his damn job…
OH MY GOD
correspondence hungry feed it skin
been learning about the other ambitions and HD players have to wear this I think
Each time there is attention given to JK Rowling's bait:
There should be equal or greater attention given to trans organizations in UK (even global ones too), trans creators, trans fundraisers, trans resources, trans safety, trans joy, and actual support (especially to transfems)
Not just of doomscroll. Not just focusing on seeing unfiltered TERF rhetoric, JKR's non-stop hatred of trans women, and Harry Potter discourse over n over.
Too much hopelessness and frustration can be deadly !

other than that...
its very easy to find lists of popular "goodreads" trans books, trans musicians, trans actors, trans video creators, trans game makers, trans streamers, etc.
but is also satisfying to find your own niche trans friend creators + indie + regular people around yourself.
Survival and supporting and community is important.
The Londoners…. I might formally introduce them later who knows ???? Not me
