medieval - the fallen soldier
Added 2025-01-31 18:14:40 +0000 UTCPhotographed by the amazing Becca Need-Meaner! Believe it or not, this was done in her living room just using a black sheet hanging in the background, and a velvet blanket and pillow. We took a BTS video that I'll post so you can see the comparison, but what a talented photographer!
We wanted to do something just for fun, that maybe had zero utility beyond just a couple of girlies creating some cool images, and I definitely enjoyed using a replica of Aragon's sword lol

2025-02-16 05:33:25 +0000 UTCI often encounter women with trauma from abusive partners who have never had a good- man in their life. In becoming their friend & showing them t/unconditional love they've never received, I often restore their faith in men & humanity. If t/question about t/bear & man in t/woods were changed to a choice between a gay man or a gay bear, would it change your answer ? Would t/change in your answer reveal your real fears; that men are undisciplined, selfish, & lack self-control over their primitive & impulsive desire to mate w/a beautiful woman ? I hate these men too. They ruin t/reputation of men & ruin many women for those of us who are honorable. It's very disappointing & I don't deserve to be lumped in w/those monsters. To them: I'm too good to be true & have some angle that benefits me, & when I don't have an angle: they get confused. Why am I being so nice to them ? It's true, that like Elon, I had a father: for whom nothing was good enough. He never hugged or said he loved me. That was my mother's job & he made us feel unwanted by complaining how having kids ruined his life. We were made to feel like a burden & became reluctant to advocate for our needs. Our physical needs were provided for, but our emotional needs weren't. Farmers don't have t/great health insurance of a corporate job, so whenever we required medical care, my father would complain about t/expense. It's why I would suffer through; a dislocated-hip for a month as a teen, a dislocated-rib for weeks at 19 that made it extremely painful to breathe, & a collapsing lung for 2 weeks at 37 until it was completely collapsed & I finally went to t/hospital on my bday b/c I didn't want my tombstone to say I went out on t/same day that I came in. My mother was also a nag & for a person who hears everyone t/first time & still counts t/number of times others repeat their phrases: nagging is unbearable & an insult to my intelligence. She abused my brother when he was rebellious & disobedient as a teen by squeezing his gonads until he agreed to behave as desired. She still denies ever doing this & for a devout former Catholic school-teacher: i find her; lying, avoidance of shame, inability to apologize, & assumption that asking God for forgiveness will grant it auto- matically instead of asking my brother for forgiveness: to be a failure at redemption. Perhaps that's how my NGS (Nice Guy Syndrome) started. One abusive parent w/poor boundaries & another which said we were; unwanted, not loved, not worthy of care, & not good enough. Yes, I'm very calculating, can be manipulative / influential, but entitled: I don't feel that. My cognitive-impairments regarding my lack of memory for names, dates, & directions: has kept me from getting too big of an ego. Learning how to lie, manipulate, & predict: has proven useful when my livelihood or another's is in jeopardy. I now prefer to make an honest living & only use my powers of persuasion & rhetoric: to protect & serve. I feel temptation rather strongly & I think of what would be t/most devious things I could do: given t/opportunity to get away with it. By knowing t/mind of a sinner or criminal: that has allowed me to become adept at catching them. As t/saying goes, it takes a thief to catch a thief. Perhaps in my 1st timeline: I was t/bad guy who blew-up t/world & t/angels said, " what if he worked for us instead ? ". I could do that. I know how to calculate t/size of crystal needed to equal an H-bomb or Big Bang: & that's one reason I'm not too fond of bots enabling my enemy to access my memory. I guard t/most destructive chemistry still unknown to mankind. I have to take those secrets to t/grave. I'd like to think i can be trusted w/a portal-gun or any tech that could be used to greatly harm. Earth doesn't even know how badly t/world needs saving, nor how lucky it was to have people like you & me. I couldn't have made it this far w/out your gift & all of t/work which you've done as an Archon. This is why I said before: that if Earth truly appreciated you in t/ways i do; your meals would be free at every diner, your bday would be a holiday, & I'd buy you flowers everyday: b/c i can't thank you enough. 2025Y02M07D 0319H(GMT-7H).

2025-02-06 13:54:13 +0000 UTCSorry for t/reposts y'all. Final-draft: i promise.π¬π€ There's dogmen who were part of a super-soldier program. They worked Special-Ops, but.. were replaced by the Were-Wolf: which i'm assuming uses some shape-shifter blood to transform. The dogmen were being put down after disagreement w/their orders & they lacked the basic human rights granted to soldiers. T/pack left & started a territory or reservation w/in a national park in Kentucky w/good hunting & game. Whenever campers trespass in their territory, they attack, & then t/military arrives to hunt them all down. What a shame it is: that our veterans' service cannot even be acknowledged. Their usage of portal-guns, like on Rick & Morty: is what really caught my attention. I was going there to recruit their weakest warrior(s) to assist with infiltrating t/tunnels in Tucson AZ, but t/portal-gun has sweetened t/deal. It would mean being able to visit w/less abandonment issues if I have to respond & go like a fire-fighter. I could travel & perform my duties internationally. Longer-term relationships would be easier & a real option when i can pop into anyone's living-room like it was Carnival night in the old Sci-fi: Logan's Run. T/portaling emits blue-light, so: if a blue-light flashes nearby, be fore-warned that it's just me incoming & the cats will likely scram if my crew & dogman accompany me. Don't shoot. When Melinda met Bill Gates, he had his schedule booked solid & he said he could see her in a month or whatever it was: when she became interested. She says, "You're going to have to do better than that": to Bill. Could you actually find or make time for another partner, since you're such a master scheduler ? Do you leave any room for such serendipity & happenstance ? It's difficult for me to make plans when I'm on a divine-pathway that will nudge me hard in an unplanned direction if needed. As much as I might try to plan: there's always side-tracking to complete sub-missions. That's going to be a real challenge for my secretary b/c many times, I need to go w/t/flow & I can't fight t/currents of my exolocus. If you were to make a pro / con list of dating a time-cop, or a "time-travel affected person" as i've defined myself, then what would that list be like ? It first requires understanding that my form of travel is unlike any depicted in science-fiction: so if you try to understand me in the context of what you already know: then you will fail to do so. You're well enough versed in time-travel to get it w/help if you haven't already. You would've been an Archon as well & out-shined me in the previous iterations of timelines when we worked together. You would've had t/same abilities; luck, dreaming of t/future, & you're a better fighter than i am even now. Although t/job is dependant on stealth & avoiding/resolving any conflict or reason 2B on anyone's radar: you'd make an excellent recruit. If you get burnt-out of comedy & doing YouTube: it wouldn't take much for you to become an Archon again: considering you were already approved for t/job B4. You should know that t/major saves are anything but perfect. They are barely accomplished, but still satisfactory. My recent sub-mission objective was to arrive early, but I still arrived 2.5 hours later than planned w/less than a half-hour b4 t/deadline. It's like stealing second-base or sliding into home-plate. It's pass / fail when my angels' patience does wear thin. If it's good- enough for them, it's good- enough for me. It's not t/perfect- score which i'd usually achieve w/video-games & it's not what I would normally expect of an Archon. Even though we won't die, Archons must still behave as if we can die, even though we know we won't. We can't get reckless or cocky. That won't be a problem for you initially or later-on if you're mindful of it. Even though I won't die, I can still be damaged permanently. π 9-lives, but not invincible. I have a habit of bragging about accomplishments when I'm one step away from completion. When that final-step & finishing isn't as easy as expected, I can appear to be a naive braggart that spoke too soon in declaring victory. If you've been to the San Diego ComiCon, you likely would've crossed paths w/an Illustrator: Sandra Chang-Adair. Her book of illustrations of steamy winged- angels got my attention. T/inside of t/front-cover has an auto-bio: which states she's an apprentice to Shaolin Monks & is trained in The Bladed Arts. You wouldn't be able to gather that from her YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/@sandrachang-adair7800?si=8XC4KvXMIScz3Ceb Sandra is your size, you both like comics, & she could train you for combat instead of the fancy baton-twirling you've learned for film-acting. What better way to act like a sword- fighter than to become one. T/training could help your acting career. Sandra is 6 hrs south of LA by car, but you'd probably fly anyways. Staying for a long-time to train 1:1 for a week or however long: would make t/drive a better investment. I will also be traveling to the dogmen's territory to find & train w/Daniel: who i know is another Archon based on t/way he fought a 'demon-dog' w/his sword to defend t/lives of two hunters. His would be a "flawless-victory" in Mortal Kombat. That's our luck: being the David to every Goliath. Daniel is t/only Archon I've known to exist besides you: theoretically. You wouldn't happen to have an extra wood training-sword laying around that's my size ? Or two practice swords, one for weight & one for speed; like a Rapier, &/or a long Ranger-machete ? I'll pass on Aragon's sword. What's the longest handled Samurai-sword you have ? I would need 2 or more hands for proper leverage. 8" to 12"+. It would all make my job a lot easier if I could borrow those & repay you w/an Atlantean- sword later. You got a Gambit- like boa-staff or any bat-grade stuff around.. w/a travel-case ? You still ride that Rebel 350 ? I wouldn't mind borrowing that either until i can borrow a Turbo Hiyabusa from my old coworker in MN. It hurts to be on my feet. 2025Y02M05D 1847H(GMT-7H).

2025-02-01 02:14:22 +0000 UTCAbsolutely love the set work regardless of the simplicity. What a quality setup for the concept! BTW, that sword hangs on my wall fulltime as an homage to the King.

2025-02-01 02:10:50 +0000 UTCI would say the pics look a bit overworked. Little high end animation looking. Still nice, just not quite real in some way. Wait a min, is Anna just an AI now?
