I Listened To The Full Ulysses Dies At Dawn Soundtrack For The First Time And It Was Amazing.

I listened to the full Ulysses dies at dawn soundtrack for the first time and it was amazing.

I was also listening to it while our teacher let us listen to music and study for a math thing so that might’ve shifted my perspective on the whole thing.

But my favorite character was Oedipus, I really like his song. Also Heracles’s song is pretty good, I liked Orpheus’s like fluttering vocals.

Uh, but big things are coming up. I just need the motivation to write in Percy PoV so for the time being there will probably be like. More random stuff lol-?

Octavian’s Auguraculum.

Okay!!! It’s been… a while, but my boy finally gets his Auguraculum!

I made the Auguraculum finally. It is SO historically inaccurate to actual Auguraculums; I’ll admit that. But an actual Auguraculum (aside from tabernaculum augurale. Which there is little information on from what I’ve tried to find) were well maintained thatched huts. Now, I didn’t want to give him a downgrade so instead…

Here is the Final(ish) art for the outside and the Dias of the Auguraculum! The uh, inside is pretty interchangeable, there’s a lot of like, bookshelves and tables and stuffed animals and space. Seeing as it’s also the like general area where the legion is gathers at times (This is taken from Tabernaculum augurlae; which was a part of the military camps and would be the religious and legal center for Camp Jupiter. Temples get to be for the New Rome citizens.)

But uh, I based it off of things like the Parthenon, and also just old Greco-Roman buildings? It’s fantasy and again, I wanted to give my guy an interesting looking building.

Now the literal and figurative centerpiece of this fictional building is that Dias and the glass dome. As my scribbles say the Dias is on a sort of like magic pulley system? It is hooked up to a loop up in the glass dome and then twists back down to a side where the Rope/Chain/whatever is stored when the thing is pulled up, idk that’s a lot of specifics that I might not specifically know but the essentials are that the Dias can move up closer to the Glass dome to view birds more easily; also to get away from annoying people who keep storming in while you try to do your job :3

As I said a couple times, it is not actually historically accurate to any Auguraculum I could find, however I think it looks nice and it’s a good setting for stuff and it gets rid of the stupid temple hill-

But uh, yeah sorry this is so short lol. I really like the design I finished with, also for all purposes of saving my hand and fine liner; I made the columns Doric, know that in actual like everything they would be Corinthian columns (the ones that look like they have leaves). The Auguraculum is also very close to the Principa, and it still has the stones where the prophecies are carved in. They’re on the Dias and quite possibly are being carved into the tiles beyond that. Uh also there’s a lot of plants and drapery and fabrics on the ceilings; partially to hide the whole pulley stuff, partially just because it looks cool.

Uh, okay. It’s really cold and I’m shaking right now but I have to go memorize my lines, also sorry there is no finished-finished art but I’ve been in a digital art ‘slump?’ As of late, I’m figuring it out. (Also I’m running out of pages in my sketchbook-)

Tomorrow we’re staging/Choreoing/blocking because it’s our Director and not choreographer working on it and it definitely feels more like a blocking day for Human again and asaaaaaaa-

I have it down but like :[] I have to Cogsworth and he has his own little part and our Babette is not gonna put up with us and aaaaaaaaa-

But it’s going to be great and super fun, and I get shoulder pads so life’s great :3.

Also, there is going to be a post about the Auguraculum when I finally calm down because I go to write more in it but I get too worked up and excited and it’s like, unreadable.

Please!!! I love rambling to people and interacting :3

Reblog if you want more interaction with your mutuals and followers :D

POKEMON Z-A THEORIZING AND LIKE AAAA

I JUST WATCHed the pokemon presents and HEHEHEHHE

Okay, okay. I am a calm collected person except Kalos is my favorite Pokemon gen and it like heheheh-

So! We can actually already predict when this game roughly is! Which is around the same time frame as Pokemon legends: Arceus, let me explain;

Pokémon legends Arceus from our theorizing is commonly accepted to take place in the Pokemon world equivelent of the Meiji Restoration (1868-1889). We believe it’s during this period due to like clothing, architecture, story plots. Go watch a video on YouTube for more (like the Lockstin and Gnoggin one) because they explain it better than me.

Now, why do I say that Pokemon legends Z-A takes place in the same time frame? Well, we know that Lumoise; the town being showed that is under reconstruction is based off Paris.

Paris actually also got redesigned in 1853, and along with that from certain pictures at the beginning of the trailer,

We can also deduce that the Architectural style is that of the 1800s during Paris’s re-development is extremely similar,

(Pictures taken from google-)

And then there’s the futuristic part. Do I know what that might possibly be? No, however may I present a theory. a GAME THEO-

I’m sorry. But perhaps this game is set in modern Pokemon times; just simply heavily affected by the past, perhaps Kalos after the events of X&Y needs a re-development or you are working on a history project of the city. Something of the like.

Anyway all that to say so excited for this game, Kalos is very nostalgic for me and I’m so hyped to see it again. Also this is one of my favorite periods architectural styles so I wanted to nerd a little lol.

Anyway Auguraculum post is soon I pinky promise!

Even possibly if I may be so bold we switch between the past and the present? That is SO not what is happening but imagine it. Maybe you play as an imaginary ancestor to your player who lives through the re-development and stuff-
