Sounds perfect Wahhhh, I don’t wanna

Hello tumblr, it’s me again!

I wanted to go ahead and drop something here since it’s something pretty big I’ve been working on hard recently. I’m a huge Fate fan, and I’ve wanted to tell an original HGW Fic for a few months now. When I finally got around to playing Samurai Remnant, it was a huge inspiration for finally getting this off the ground… so much so a certain Samurai Remnant character ended up in the war.

So, I hope everyone enjoys what I have so far. This is far and away the most ambitious thing I’ve written, and I hope it’s enjoyable

Why I am insane

So yall know Britomart FGO? A Servant that's pretty forgotten after her release in MorganFest... Well for some fucking reason I went fucking insane for her and had a complete HC about her being the daughter of Artoria and Guinevere because I am not ok, and I will share it here because you all have to accept my brainrot so less begin because yall have no option:

First of all, we know from Canon that the Britomart we haven't isn't the original Britomart but rather her daughter, she herself is the second generation Britomart who is using her Mother's Name and Armor to get a name for herself

We also know that Britomart has a Human Father and a Fae Mother which is a rather common trope in Medieval Stories, and we also know that she holds great admiration towards the KOTR and the Fae KOTR

Now, what does that have to do with her being the daughter of Artoria and Guinevere? Well, in a 1978 novel known as Arthur Rex we are given the idea that after the fall of Camelot Guinevere became a wandering knight... By the name of Britomart

Now, if we use Arthur Rex then that would imply that Guinevere was the original Britomart. And the question of the FGO Britomart saying that she has a Human Father and a Fae Mother can be explained through Artoria being refered mainly via male terms and the idea of a Human becoming a Fae being rather common in Medieval literature/Fairy Tales

This then give us the timeline that before the fall of Camelot (Most likely a month or two before) Guinevere would end up pregnant with Artoria's child, then the Fall happens and she becomes Britomart to try to atone for her part on it, eventually ending in the Land of the Fae where she would give birth to their daughter

Of course, this is mostly HC but it does have some foundations specially with Britomart's own lines towards different characters, specifically her lines towards Artoria/Arthur which do seem akin to a Child finally getting to meet their parent (Plus her line towards Arthur has that same sort of confusion Mordred has towards Arthur)

We even have her line towards Mordred which is interesting to see given how she refers to the idea of having an awesome parent

image

Finally and this is my most recent proof, I came across the figure of Melora who is canonically the daughter of Arthur and Guinevere who crossdressed as a Knight… Something that sounds very similar to the story of Britomart

And with the idea that Britomart is more so a title than an actual name, that would mean that Britomart's real name is Melora. Making her the second Daughter of Artoria and Guinevere

image

So in short, FGO's Britomart would actually be Melora, Artoria and Guinevere's Daughter... And yes, I am absolutely insane for this but my brain has rotted enough that I basically take this as canon so now you all will too as this is now my daughter whom I love a lot

being black in any art community is such a strange feeling cause you’ll see just blatant racism being expressed in others art and you have to just casually ignore it, for your sake if anything, colorism being something that’s just fundamentally there in every artist and you deal with it cause it’s not worth it in the end to even think of it too hard let alone even mentioning it, it’s definitely something

Hello nonblack reader of this post, I think you ought to share this one so that you and your peers can actively remind yourselves 1) of how your Black peers feel when you tolerate antiblack racism in your art spaces for entertainment and 2) that we notice it, but don't believe it is secure around enough of you to bring it up 🙏🏾

just be yourself and don’t care about what other people think! Why would you care about what other people think about you?

Everyone knows that there is an area in the world that everyone has been talking about recently, and that is Gaza, which has gone through the worst two years that all of humanity has witnessed, with killing, hunger, displacement, home demolitions, fear, and all forms of fascism in our modern era.

Gaza has not only been suffering for two years. Gaza has been under siege for 17 years by the Zionist Israeli occupation. There are no airports, trains, or official ports. Gaza is located in the free state of Palestine.

We have witnessed a genocide in Gaza that was broadcast to us in sound and image for two years, and we have been watching while we should have supported them and stood by them and stopped this genocide and ethnic cleansing that they have been going through and demanded the liberation of Gaza and Palestine.

My friend Zeina is 12 years old from Gaza. She has spent her entire life in wars in the Gaza Strip, the last of which was the two-year war of extermination. Now she aspires to leave Gaza and start a new life. She needs 2,000 euros to achieve her initial goal.

If you can give a person or a family a new life, this would be a wonderful and beautiful thing for you to do. Please donate whatever you can (consider your donation a gift for a friend, the price of a meal, transportation, or a travel ticket). Zeina has not experienced any of these things in her life, so let us give them to her together.
