Me: My Warcross book finally arrived! Friends: Oh, good for you! Me: And it got here in time before my trip*, like I wanted! Friends: That’s great! Me: But I can’t read it! Friends: Why?
Me: Because it came in Spanish!
Friends: ...can you read Spanish?
Me: No!
Friends: Did you order it in Spanish?
Me: No!
Friends: …
(*before anyone judges me about going on a trip, it’s completely socially distanced, since we’re going to Mammoth Lakes and aren’t going to be near anyone anyway. Stay safe and wear a mask everyone!)

So, I’ve just discovered that this was a thing, and I can no longer access it cause--well, it’s not there anymore XD. BUT, do I want this? Uh....YEAH! I think it would be AWESOME to like ‘exist’ in Warcross via characters and stuff. Would anyone else be up for doing something like this--if yes, I can still make the server!
Emika Chen is so hot.
That’s it. That’s the post.









SPOILERS FOR : “Warcross” AND “Wildcard” AHEAD!!!
TADA!!!!! This took me so flipping long XD XD ( @tremaine-blackbourne , this is what I was talking about XD XD).
This is a FAKE Netflix promo for Marie Lu’s Warcross duology!
Above, I’ve edited a Promo, Selection Screen, Season One selection (Season One is actually all of Warcross Book #1 Summarized), Season Two Episodes 1-10 Selection (Likewise, Season Two is actuallu Wildcard summarized and stuff), and Three Screenshots from “Episodes” (Two from Wildcard, One from Warcross, all of ‘em are actual quotes!”), And a “Paused Episode” screen from Wildcard
ALSO! All the “shows” in the bottom “my list” section are also FAKE promos for other books! Included: The Young Elites (Marie Lu), Legend (Marie Lu), The Lunar Chronicles (Marissa Meyer), Skyhunter (Marie Lu), Dream SMP (Twitch...streamers), Renegades (Marissa Meyer), Heartless (Marissa Meyer)
I “made” all the fake promo decals (I edited them together) too!
I had a lot of fun with this, and really really want to share this with Tumblr--I heard rumor of Warcross actually getting a TV show--consider this my hype up!
Have a great day or night!!!

Recently I have finished reading the Warcross duology by Marie Lu and ever since I read the portrayal of Emika Chen, I knew I wanted to draw her not only because of her distinguishing look but also because of her unique personality 🖤
"Everyone has a different way of escaping the dark stillness of their mind" - Marie Lu, Warcross





“I don’t want to be your enemy,” he says quietly. “But I’m going to do this, with or without you.” I can feel my own heart breaking, but I stand firm. He does not give, and neither do I, so we continue to stand on opposite sides of a ravine. “Then you’re going to have to do it alone.”
- Warcross , Marie Lu

MAKE ME CHOOSE. @valesclarke asked: hideo or dorian?
this is hideo stripped of his fortune and fame and genius. this is him as a boy, waiting every day for his brother to come back…






“i’m terrified, of what you’re capable of. because you’re here, walking on a razor-thin line. i’ve been afraid ever since i met you, when you looked me straight in the eye and broke down my system in a matter of minutes.”

Hideo had created something that changed all of our lives, often for the better. It was a creation that had probably saved my life. And yet, here I am. Maybe I should feel like a hero. But I don’t. It’s always easier to destroy than to create.




WARCROSS, WILDCARD; MARIE LU
“Every problem has a solution. But after every solution, there’s a new problem to tackle, some new challenge to take on. You don’t stop after you solve one thing. You keep going, you find a new way and a new path, try to do better and create better. Tearing something down isn’t the end; doing something great, or better, something right, is. Or maybe there isn’t such a thing as an end goal at all. You accomplish something, and then you shift, ready to accomplish the next. You keep solving one problem after another until you change the world.”

Hideo wants me off the official games and the hunt. Zero has warned me to stay away. But I’ve never been good at following instructions. I’m a bounty hunter. And if my bounty’s still out there somewhere, I have to finish this.
