AHHH I am in love with this 🥺

Their relationship doesn’t get enough attention in the fandom and I, a person that loves sibling relationships, shall change that
I don’t want the second part... I need it!
Ps Your arts amazing :)
;u; do you want to see the second part? Write down “BH team is the best” and I’ll continue it.
Definitely gonna try this one day!!!
My dear Cheshire got me into the Moomins a few years back, primarily the comics and what I could read of the books (I still need to get my hands on a physical copy of them, dangit cost of living! -shakes fist-).
Anyway, Snufkin is extremely relatable to me and basically lives the life I dream about living so after finally deciding to binge watch all I could of them I decided to see if there were any recipes for the soups and stews he makes in the show. And tada! There is!
It’s the most Finnish recipe I’ve ever cooked but it came out pretty damn bomb with some tweaking, if I do say so myself.
I figured others might like it too, since he’s become so popular here, so here’s my version of it:
6 carrots 1 large onion 2 tbsp oil 3 cups water 1 vegetable broth cube 3 tablespoons of wild rice 1 cup of heavy cream
Salt and pepper to taste.
Pinch of thyme for each bowl.
1. Peel and slice the vegetables, stir them together with oil in a large sauce pan over high heat. I left my carrots in big chunks because I’m a New Englander and that’s how I like my potatoes in chowder but if you do that I recommend cooking them for about five to ten minutes with a cover over them all on their own before adding the onions because they came out a bit tough in the center for me. Cook, stirring consistently, until onions are golden and slightly transparent. 1.5. While veggies are cooking, bring water to a boil in a medium to large pot.
You know you have the right sized onion if it’s roughly the size of Little My’s head.
2. When water is boiling and veggies are mostly cooked, add vegetable broth cube to the water. Stir broth, add vegetables to the pot once they’re ready (careful of splash back!).
3. Now add the rice, stirring continuously, for around 30 minutes or more depending on the rice you used. Mine took about 40 minutes because I added wild rice to mine instead of white or brown.
4. Bring to a gentle simmer and add the cream. Stir continuously over low heat, remove from heat when it reaches desired thickness.
5. Serve in your favorite bowl with a pinch of salt, pepper and thyme to taste! You can also try green onion or a similar veggie/spice of your liking but I think the thyme is the perfect addition to not overwhelm things. <3
6. Share a bowl with your favorite Moomin! It is a Snufkin soup after all!
And there ya go! :D A delicious dish, straight from Moomin Valley! (or the farmer’s market/Stop ‘n Shop, whichever is closest. ;3)

This crippled me, like omg I'm ready for death my life has be fulfilled! PLEZ I NEED MORE OF THIS SHIT ITS TOO CUTE FOR THE REAL WORLD!
requested by anon
why doesn’t biblical art ever depict the Snake from the tree with legs. God took away legs from Snakes because the Snake in the tree right? So why doesn’t he ever have legs!!!
Feeling really dysphoric so I vent a bit. I’m not the best at anatomy especially arms and hands but yeah. It kinda help to get it out and calm myself down. Idk if it’s really apparent in the drawing but my binder doesn’t always help because my chest is large and yeah.... Idk what to put here so have me screaming in text form. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
List of things that sparked joy in my little Ancient culture enthusiast heart:
The moths in the Ancient Urban are essentially pigeons, including the fact some of them are tagged.
Finally a proper and canon confirmation that Ancients really did have pets, positive relationships with animals and weren't Only stuck in glass cubes on display like Moon implies once. It can also mean that they did research into animal behaviour, such as tracking migrating and such. From how biologists are in real life, we can assume they were even genuinely passionate & happy about these type of things.
All the pottery and plates in that workshop room,
A confirmation that they did have paper and used scrolls for writing stuff down,
alongside with the pearls that they, too, could perhaps freely read or one of those things on the shelf there might be a pearl reader, if it is more technologically based (CDs type information keeping)
I also wonder if those things there are books- with stone tablet pages or paper ones? digital things hidden in hardcovers?- or something else entirely. Do they maybe hold orders for earthenware?
The masks on the wall, they feel so real compared to the murals.
Are they of the same person or is it of the workers there or maybe a family? Some of them look similar to those in the murals.
While at the concept of family, they had creches, but it doesn't sound like it was an outright job in the sense that they seem to have been community-raised (I fuckin' knew it I can put down my tin hat now).
They had hard beds, similar to what used to be used in old china iirc, along with that pillow/headrest
This kinda thing. They were made out of porcelain to keep the head cool in the night, but I think some where out of wood too.
The bustling of the city.
The normalcy of people going about their day, talking, the vehicles zipping by (they had some kind of motor vehicles!!!!).
The architecture, in both the Ancient Urban and the Outer Rim (those roofs made the right side worth it to me, that's how much I love these bastards)
I find it very funny that what looks to me like a REALLY poor ass cable management seems like the height of decorative prowess to them. Also some insight into how the void ,,bath" actually looked like.
The toys... just the toys.
Alongside these dialogues
And the one about him remembering the halls he ran through- oh when I say that I adore the fact that this Echo is a kid stuck here, lonely and vulnerable with polite speech not plaguing it.
The original Echoes combined with the Iterators' distaste for the species as whole painted the Ancients as these heartless things lazer focused only on the Ascension, religion and rituals. There wasn't much space for thinking about them in a more human manner and I feel like most of the fandom did depict the Ancients only as the impression was given. Bunch of posh full of themselves suckups, uncaring much for one another or anything around them.
I get kinda annoyed when there's an insistance that some kind of sapient species has done only bad. With humans, too, I just about had it with the demonization, negativity and staggering blindness to the beauty and good we can and do create- in both fiction and reality. Same goes for these dumbasses.
Disko kid here begs to challenge that impression. He's lost and alone and kind of scared, stuck here not knowing how to move forward. He mourns the regularity and simplicity of his room, the nostalgia of shelves and toys, the golden sunrays sneaking in through the windows. He brings a certain humanity into the consideration of Ancients.
That maybe, only maybe.. they deserve to be mourned.
