2 and 6 clothesswap - a special thanks request I drew for sixthdoctorscoat. :)
I guess the clothes of his almost every other incarnation would look slighlty baggy on Two, but his own, also baggy, would probably fit someone taller (=an older him) nicely.
Discover how medieval artists began putting themselves into their work — ten vivid self-portraits from St Dunstan to Albrecht Dürer.
In 1136 the Bohemian lay painter Hildebertus added a self-portrait to a copy of St. Augustine’s City of God. Hall notes that two self-portraits by Hildebertus survive, and in both he shows himself working alongside his young assistant Everwinus, with identifying inscriptions above them. In the City of God image, Hildebertus sits cross-legged at a lectern supported by a lion, quill in hand, but he turns aside to deal with a mouse, raising a sponge to throw. The open book beside him says, “Damn you, wretched mouse exasperating me so often!”

Constructing a writing portfolio for a translation MFA program like: I wanna cover all my bases so ofc I gotta submit a little of Don Carlos do I choose the gayest bits or the most overwrought heterosexual ANGST to show them I can handle a more melodramatic register or do I set aside my particular construction of the homosexual/incestuous trap of inherited monarchy and choose something unsexy-but-important. Is it more impressive to convey psychological evolution over the course of a monologue or interpersonal tension through dialogue. If I show them the Marquis of Posa will they fall in love with him
Meanwhile my fiction prose sample is about René Descartes throwing kittens into the Amsterdam canals (it's ok they can swim) while 10 y.o. Baruch Spinoza has a meltdown. My poetry sample is about how Heinrich Heine is a wolf actually. My nonfiction prose sample is about a statue.
So it's not a case of Un, Deux, Trois cats sank?
Today’s echinoderm of the day is Athyonidium chilensis, commonly known as the burrowing shaggy sea cucumber. This specimen looks distinctly broccoli like…

I've come to greatly enjoy starting fanfiction with a "cold open" or "teaser" in text form - a short scene or two that sets up the premise before going into the proper story
But I'm not sure how one would format that - it's too short for a proper chapter, doesn't count as "prologue" if you pick up the story right after...
I would put your cold open in italics with maybe a horizontal bar between it and the fic proper
I’ve been thinking about “lone wolves” or alpha-beta-omega stuff and thinking, what if instead of being parts of werewolf culture, their just basically werewolf youth labels? Just silly sub-cultures young werewolves do and will be haunted by at 3am as their “cringe phase”?
Cause I can imagine some edgy teenage werewolf calling themselves a “lone wolf”. That they don’t need no pack cause they’re “super awesome and cool and stuff”!!!, while surrounding themselves by like minded wolf pups and listening to sad music in their room.
Or some insecure young werewolf trying to declare themselves as the “alpha” of their friend group. Bossing everyone else around and calling people they don’t like “omegas” as an insult.
"It's so stupid."
"Don't call your sister stupid."
"But it is stupid! Lone wolf this, wolf without a pack that. She has us! And she and her friends are all dressing the same and running around being Lonesome in a big stupid group, which is basically a pack anyway."
"I know, I know, but that's her business. It's good for her to have friends with similar interests. They lounge about brooding in a big pile and you play in the woods."
"It's called LARPing, Dad."
"I thought the P stood for play?"
"Nevermind."
"In my day there was nothing stupid about considering yourself a lone wolf. It showed initative, setting out on your own. Made it clear you were serious about starting a family."
"What's that have to do with anything?"
"That's what 'lone wolf' used to mean, that you were looking for a mate from another pack."
"Well, no one can fight the power of modern language, moonlight. Not even the most eligible lone wolf ever seen this side of the mountains."
"Gross."
"You know, your mother was—"
"I don't wanna knowwww. I'm going to tell Kim she and her edgy friends go around calling themselves The Bachelorettes."
