[Alistair] You asked who I thought you were. [Arthur] That... Was rhetorical- [Alistair] Well, I think you're a stranger. My wee brother isn't a father. He's not sensible or polite, and he doesn't ask before he takes. He doesn't care for how his actions might affect others. My wee brother ran away from home years ago and has been a bloody liability to the family ever since.

I remembered an ask, I of course can't find it now that I need it, that asked if, in the punk dad au, whether Arthur had a good relationship with his brothers. And I remembered that I said he doesn't, but didn't otherwise elaborate.

But I think the relationship to his brothers are complicated. Because in the end, they do end up helping him find a flat and a job and all, right when Arthur's gotten Alfred and is cleaning up his act a bit. I do think that the Arthur his brothers knew before Alfred (and Matthew) arrived, was someone who lived life more carelessly and more unapologetically, to a point where he was living out of spite more than anything else. And the mother in question wasn't a particularly good influence either, so when Arthur does eventually just rip off the band aid and ask Cieran and Alistair for help, both brothers are skeptical, to put it mildly. And Alistair, the one who agrees to actually meet with him, doesn't recognize the Arthur that's asking him for help; Because in practically every way, he's changed. This Arthur is someone who's well-considered, sensible and trying to be responsible, and it beckons the question whether he always possessed the ability for sensibility, but simply chose not to be.

Not a good relationship by any means, but they will, albeit with some snarky comments, be able to drink a beer together.

I make perfumes that smell like blood, phlegm, black bile, and yellow bile. They're not very good yet, but I'm trying to improve my scents of humor.

Happy Battle of Hastings day to all who celebrate/mourn

when you die, all the processes in your body slow down and come to a halt before starting to decay. which means if you were to revive someone from the dead, necromancer-style, you'd potentially have to kickstart their entire system back up from a state of inertia. which means it almost certainly would not be pretty. i'm talking coughing up clots of blood, nauseatingly intense migraines and muscle cramps, and all the sensory overload that would come with firing up the body's engines from frozen cold to fully functioning all guns blazing in the matter of seconds it takes to cast a resurrection spell.

look, I know I've talked about this essay (?) before but like,

If you ever needed a good demonstration of the quote "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic", have I got an exercise for you.

Somebody made a small article explaining the basics of atomic theory but it's written in Anglish. Anglish is basically a made-up version of English where they remove any elements (words, prefixes, etc) that were originally borrowed from romance languages like french and latin, as well as greek and other foreign loanwords, keeping only those of germanic origin.

What happens is an english which is for the most part intelligible, but since a lot everyday english, and especially the scientific vocabulary, has has heavy latin and greek influence, they have to make up new words from the existing germanic-english vocabulary. For me it kind of reads super viking-ey.

Anyway when you read this article on atomic theory, in Anglish called Uncleftish Beholding, you get this text which kind of reads like a fantasy novel. Like in my mind it feels like it recontextualizes advanced scientific concepts to explain it to a viking audience from ancient times.

Even though you're familiar with the scientific ideas, because it bypasses the normal language we use for these concepts, you get a chance to examine these ideas as if you were a visitor from another civilization - and guess what, it does feel like it's about magic. It has a mythical quality to it, like it feels like a book about magic written during viking times. For me this has the same vibe as reading deep magic lore from a Robert Jordan book.
