This 1973 song by Al Stewart tells the story of a Russian partisan during WW2. It's a story of war, betrayal, and the personal cost of fighting for a cause.
50 years later, #OurFlagMeansDeath used it to make what was already a badass scene truly epic. π€βοΈ
From the episode title, to the name of Zheng's ship, to a sign of danger, the possibilities with this prompt are endless! What does it inspire for you?
We're looking forward to seeing your red flags! πβ οΈ
Would anyone like a script I whipped up to replace the default google bar chart in your #AO3 stats? It lets you set chart size, font, font size, and even choose a different number of bars. AO3 do keep a small list of handy scripts, but I didn't see one to do this so wrote my own. (I just wanted shot of google without losing the chart, actually, but I realised I could also make a bunch of improvements while I was at it.) #fanfiction
If you think anyone else might want this, please boost!
We love the way music is used in the show! While the first half of Season 2 was rough for our pirate crew, Buttons achieving his dream & hearing this song makes us feel like better days are coming. ππ
What mer-folk will this song inspire? Tag us with what you create!
Lighthouses are used as symbolism for various different ideas throughout the show: a guide, the unattainable, a beacon of hope. How will the symbol of the lighthouse inspire you?
So many prompt events going on this month! So far I've seen #MerMay, #GentlebeardWeddingWeek and now this! There's some very fun tropes on this list as well π Might even be fun to do some combined prompt fills?
You Shall Become (Me) by jedipati. Complete. This is a crack fic where the guardians of the sith temple are pissed off at Darth sidius for being a wanker and Obiwan accidentally becomes a sith Lord. Very good. Highly recommend. https://archiveofourown.org/works/6113875/chapters/14013484
The Desert Storm by Blue_Sunshine excellent storytelling, absolutely massive, (to the extent it reminds me of Saving Connor) still updating. This is a series of fics under a collection. Has a wide host of OC's and some excellent storytelling and development of Shmi's character. Later parts feature an incredibly scary Darth Plaegious. With all that said, it's pace is at times disappointingly slow, and I don't like Anakin, who the later parts focus on. https://archiveofourown.org/series/1311746
I think that's all for now. I'll add more as I find them. Feel free to recommend me fics to read as well. #reclist#swfic
This is a spoof of Hbomberguy's takedown of James Summerton... except.. it's SpaceBomberGuy making a five hour expose video on Chancellor Palpatine. It is amazing. Just amazing. I can't recommend it enough.
