Thanksgiving makes you think about the people who hold you up in ways the world does not see. The friends who pray for you. The family who checks in. The ones who show love without needing attention. Appreciate the people who make your life feel safe. They are gifts. 🙏🏽 🤎

most of the time with smutty fics it's the end goal to get the characters off, but i also think it'd be entertaining to lean into it not being perfect.

#wipwednesday
Flicking the switch on the side of the accelerator's base, the chamber slowly whirs to life. A howling sound eerily similar, yet completely different to the way the forces of nature move outside. A spark starts. Only one. A flicker in between air molecules so fast one might miss it for a cursed untimely blink. Not Jayce as his mind holds onto the image dearly. There was a winding in his chest he didn't realize until he felt muscles uncoil with a laugh of disbelief. Out the corner of his eye, another spark ignites. Energy only describable as cosmic begins to fill the room. With childlike wonder, Jayce turns his head about owlishly finding an increasing number of sparks glittering about. The laws of gravity his only reminder he hasn't fallen upward into the stars.

As a woman, lifting heavier weights WILL NOT MAKE YOU BULKY by itself.

But you know what it will do? Improve your mental health and clarity, strengthen your bones and joints as you age, and even regulate your hormones.

Put them 5s and 10s down and PUSH IT!

A flash fic from tumblr today. Prompt “hunter’s moon” (1/2)
#FFF 3 32 HUNTER'S MOON 64.media.tumblr.com @flashfictionfridayofficial relationships: Ambessa Medarda & Rictus, mentioned Ambessa Medarda/Azizi Medarda, implied Ambessa Medarda/ Rudo rating: G cw: implied pregnancy word count: 854 ** When it is the peak of the night and there is no light or sound pollution for as far as the eye can see, the haze of the high moon casts a glow most ethereal. Earlier that day, Ambessa's navigators were handed a tedious back and forth steering The Golden Dancer through a thick haze. The weather was fickle this season. The crew persisted remarkably. Since then, the air has let up to a misty fog, one the light of a waxing gibbous could cut through with delicate ease as a peering through a thin veil. Resting her hands on the wooden banisters laid above the main deck, Ambessa admires the vast expanse of the waters ahead. Absentmindedly, she finds herself digging a thumbnail deeper into the material. Long scratches following the natural curves of the wood set the pace at which she breathes. The richness in the cool salty air sates her lungs with each inhale and exhale. The tides have proven themselves to be holding steady for the night. There is a consistent and subtle up and down motion that gives her body a sense of ease, settling the flutter in her lower belly. It is not the one of nerves, not of butterfly wings eagerly beating to break free. No, her reputation puts her far past that. Rather, a small frog held in a tight space, ready to flip flo. Ambessa relieves one of her hands from holding onto the banister to rest on the space below her navel. As if she could hold onto the sensation and give it assurance "Your thoughts run loud, Kreipsha." Breaking her focus from the horizon, Ambessa tilts her head towards her left shoulder, eyebrows fixing a hair lower. "Hmph, it is but the call of the sea below," she rebuffs bringing her focus back to the waters. "It disorients your ears, Rictus." Knowing better than to argue, he kept primed counters to himself. Glancing down, he pretends to not see her feet bare on the wooden panels of the deck. He returns to guarding her stature instead. Satisfied with the silence on his end aside from a lone muffled grunt, Ambessa returns her focus to the ripples dancing across the water's surface. It has been close to a month since she left Basilich and even longer since Bel'zhun. Admittedly she missed them all dearly. Kino will be turning six in two months. She hoped she would be able to make it back in time. The times she couldn't were some of her most regrettable. Azizi keeps her updated with letters. Ambessa's chest warms with pride; Kino has continued to sprout in ways beyond her comprehension. She couldn't return yet, however; there was still much more to do on the campaign, lest she face certain displeasure from her grandfather. Since going under his care, his tutelage, Menelik has continued to instill in her to follow the light of the moon and the north star of the skies and the Medardas, for they would never fail to guide her way. Dutifully she has done so. His teachings led her to rise in the medarda clan with nothing less than well-earned respect. It's led her to Azizi, while a bond not found in choice at first, it is one that has grown in variables challenges, balance, and through it all, certain love. Nights out on the open sea are supposed to be cool, invigorating. They usually are. Yet Ambessa cannot shrug a particular warmth that, very much akin to the moonlight, cuts through, curling at the base of her spine. The warmth is still fresh, akin to the beats and flares of the sun.

🧵Let’s talk about what DEI is.

Diversity, equity, and inclusion doesn’t mean people getting jobs because of their skin color, that’s what the absence of DEI does.

At one point, most professional sports leagues were white-only.

For those who want references of Mel's Winterblessed skin, her model is viewable on Khada!

Mel Medarda from Arcane and League of Legends. Image depicts her against a light blue background. She's wearing a dark blue and purple outfit, with a fur shawl with golden accents. Her hair is blue and in a bun with golden accessories. The trail of her dress is sheer for an aurora borealis effect.

who up thinking about Jayce Talis remembering those he loves while trapped in the ravine to keep himself sane and the concept art of him clutching a drawing of Mel Medarda he made while in the pit? 🥺 #arcane
A reddit response from Amanda Overton discussing Arcane that says: Jayce is a passionate guy who wears his heart on his sleeve a lot of the time. I see him as always looking for something to like in everything he does. Being a Councilor was certainly a challenge since there wasn't a lot to like about what he had to do as one. I always love stories where someone can look into the deepest dark, and still find light. When Jayce was alone in the dark pit, he didn't let his demons consume him. He remembered who he loved, what he loved and why - and why those things are worth fighting for. Concept art of Jayce Talis from the Arcane art book that shows him in the ravine holding a hand drawn image of Mel Medarda. Meljay is implied.

good dough 🤲 #vanco #zaundads
Cosplay portrait shot of Jul as alternative timeline Silco sitting at a table with lots of papers and a coffee pot and cup in front of him. He is holding a pen in his hand, but he is not working, because apparently something caught his eye. Cosplay portrait of Franzi in her alt timeline Vander cosplay — but only wearing his apron. Vander is standing in the backlight by a window, kneading dough with both hands on a wooden board. A rolling pin lies next to the board. The backlight emphasizes his arm muscles. Closer shot of Silco. He now wears a smirk on his face, has stopped bothering with his work and is instead staring at his husband who is out of frame. In the foreground, there is the ball of dough resting on its worden board, right next to a pack of flour, rolling pin and golden ring. In the blurry background, Silco is kissing Vander's neck passionately.

Mel nation asked some amazing questions for the Arcane AMA and Amanda Overton answered one!

Love hearing how Mel was finally seen as herself for once via Jayce instead of being burdened with being a Medarda. 🥹
Hello Alex and Amanda! Getting to hear your thoughts on Mel’s character during last week’s video was so inspiring as a fan of hers since season one released. Your placing her as a hero really emulated a lot of the ways I’ve positioned her character so if you’d indulge me in a few more Mel questions: There’s always been a question of why Mel was near the labs in episode 3 of season one. Do you imagine that she somehow knew of Jayce and Viktor‘s plan to sneak in or was she looking for some way to protect the work from destruction herself? Ambessa is a stand out character in how she so clearly opposes ideas like empathy or mercy when it comes to Mel and how it’s influenced her own self doubt that we see expressed from her very first moment on screen. How important then was Jayce as a character to her development in understanding herself? In episode five of season two Mel mentions to “Kino” that they’d held a funeral for him. Was there ever any versions of that funeral that were scripted but not brought to screen? If so, what were they like? The years long wait to see if Mel survived the bomb was my biggest struggle as a Mel fan, though it’s clear now she was always intended to survive. My last question is: was there ever any other versions of how her powers worked in that moment like who’d been saved or if she’d fall victim in some way? Thank you so much for giving us an amazing show like arcane with characters like Mel who mean more than i could ever really put into words Thank you, we love Mel too! When I first saw Evening Monteiro’s “stand-out” designs for her, I was like, “She has to be in the show!” When we first meet Mel in season one, she’s a savvy opportunist. And Jayce’s pitch to the council about magic technology was an opportunity for Mel. She was not near the labs by accident. ;) We always knew Mel’s arc would be about legacy, and the burden and responsibility of your family, your name, your upbringing - and the weight of those expectations. And at its heart, hers is a mother-daughter story. Her relationship with Jayce is unique in it’s one of the few in the show that has a lack of conflict. Jayce is emotionally open and trusting immediately - the opposite of how Mel was raised. And the lack of external conflict between them, leads to a heck of a lot of internal conflict for Mel. I love how beautifully Fortiche showed her internal conflict - the painting of Noxus, that INSANE overhead shot of her in bed - Jayce saw Mel for Mel, and not as a Medarda. Which challenged Mel to see herself as different from her upbringing, and to imagine a new future for herself. Now that obviously caused A LOT of conflict for Mel when her mother returned and the burden/responsibility of being a Medarda was staring her in the face. A few things we explored with Mel’s mage power, is her realization that she was responsible for saving (or not saving) everyone in that Council Room. If her mother hadn’t lied to her about being a mage, or if she knew how to control her powers, she could have saved everyone. But instead, her instinct or innate reaction only allowed her self-preservation and to save a few people by accident. That was certainly guilt that motivated her in her dealings with the Black Rose, and beyond.

An edited version of Mel Medarda’s new League of Legends Winterblessed skin. She’s wearing a flowing purple and blue dress with hints of pink in it and her tattooed digits are snowflakes. An edited version of Crystal Rose Jayce from League of Legends made to look closer to Jayce Talia from Arcane. He is wearing a white suit with bits of purple and blue and pink around him. The two images together can be interpreted as bi4bi meljay 💖
