While preparing for a family group photo in 1899, the Dowager Empress Maria Feodorovna of Russia discovers the camera and point it out to her older sister, Queen Alexandra of the United Kingdom. Meanwhile their nephew, Prince George of Greece, is jumping over the grandchildren and great-grandchildren of King Christian IX who are waiting for the photograph to be taken. In the bottom of the gifs are Maria Feodorovna’s three granddaughters: Princess Irina Alexandrovna and the Grand Duchesses Olga (far right) and Tatiana (not in the picture) Nikolaevna, together with the children of Prince Valdemar of Denmark: Prince Aage, Prince Viggo and Princess Margrethe.

ULTIMATE SHIPS CHALLENGE - High School Romance Ships [1/6] ↳ I heard what you said. What? (I knew exactly what.) I feel the same (insp)
You stood up for me back then, Eren. Everyone helped. That’s enough for me.
My hot take on the AOTNR project: A huge portion of the "tHiS iS sOoO dIsReSpEcTfUl tO tHe AuThOR" commenters actually don't care about it at all, and instead they either:
a) feel insecure that their canon ship may be somehow threatened by this doujinshi,
b) liked the original ending, but hate to be disagreed with (or need to be validated) and feel threatened by the amount of people who could potentially sway to the fanmade one (...or even simply start to see some plotholes/illogicalities in the original one).
Obviously, not everyone is like that, but I swear - for some, it's just so painfully obvious that their stance on the project stems from some weird insecurity issues...just get a grip. It's a fanfiction, and, despite the absurd claims some people make, nobody is forcing it on you. There are 93737282928272 other fan-made projects, be it stories, comics or animations online, it's really not that deep. You don't have to look it up, read it or interact with its fans. You don't have to flaunt how you didn't read it (obviously!) but saw the screenshots and thought it was terrible. You don't have to mock the people who enjoyed it or the team who worked on it. You're not cool, neither some knight in shining armor. You just look ridiculous, if not even desperate.
Now, I'm a huge advocate for polite discussion and constructive criticism. If you read the work and see any issues with it, it's okay to talk about it or simply voice your opinion in a civil way. However, if you do it the way stated above, then that's kind of pitiful and maybe you should rethink why are you so insecure about a piece of fiction...🤷

thinking so hard about caleb wittebane.
caleb is the most important character in the show. caleb died 400 years before the first episode. caleb is the reason philip came to the boiling isles, and caleb is the reason belos wants to destroy it. you cannot tell me that “saving humanity” is the only motivation for the man so obsessed with the brother he murdered. it’s his moral excuse to take revenge on the people he sees as having taken his brother away, a justification to himself that what he did was acceptable. he knows it isn’t.

it’s annoying to me as a Fanfic Elder that y’all don’t understand how consent works in regards to reading fanfic
last night I saw a fic that had EIGHT of my favorite tags included and a great summary BUT it also contained a tag for a topic that bothers me. I weighed the pros/cons and decided NOT to read the fic because the ONE tag I disliked was something that could trigger a panic attack if the scene went into any sort of detail - it wasn’t worth risking the eight good tags.
from the first moment I noticed the fic to the moment I decided not to read it, the entire experience was MY RESPONSIBILITY. the author tagged the fic correctly, I knew what my limits were, and I respected them.
if you find a fic with tags you don’t like, JUST DON’T READ IT
don’t harass the author, don’t post a big whiny rant about it on Tumblr, just keep scrolling
that is your job as a reader.

SOO much to process rn but omg Gus saw Belo’s memories of Wittebro!!!
Don't think about a palisman coming to life into a vast world of colors, seeing first a cowlick of blonde hair, a wide enthusiastic smile and eyes so very proud and so very full of love. The immediate connection, the will to learn about each other, how it was suddenly a duo where there was nothing before.
Don't think about how it was the carver and the palisman, then it became Caleb and Flapjack, two souls facing a world with so much to discover and so much to see. Their adventures, their experiences, their dangers and their joys, never leaving one's side as it was a bond meant to last beyond the magic.
Don't think about Flapjack singing Caleb, Caleb feeding Flapjack. Flapjack pulling Caleb's cowlick when the man was really tired but was begging for another chapter from that new book of magic. Last one Flapjack.
Don't think about Flapjack noticing that only his Caleb has round ears. He doesn't care why, he likes that Caleb is unique.
Don't think about people being wary of Caleb because of his appearance, but eventually growing fond of him, because that was simply how Caleb was. Looking in control of it all... while being as lonely as it could get
Don't think about Caleb telling Flapjack stories about a different world, one never seen by the palisman, where the rain was cold and people had round ears. How he used to belong to a place, but never felt a purpose, and eventually realized it wasn't the life he wanted. How he missed only his brother, but that he left him with their village to watch over him and he was to grow up into a man just fine.
Don't think about just another day, only to turn out into that meeting, when the girl with the brown mane came into the picture. And Flapjack couldn't stand her at first.
Don't think about when he started to like her. How she was nice, fun. And how she made Caleb so incredibly happy.
Don't think about the years passing, a couple united, Flapjack watching over them. Love in the house, a baby on the way, another one Flapjack could pull the hair of. The eternity of two lives to enjoy the beauty of it all.
...
Don't think about another round eared person coming in. How Caleb was so happy to see.
Don't think about Flapjack feeling something wrong into such person, perhaps because he felt nothing like Caleb, perhaps because he kept glaring in his direction. But, again, it made Caleb happy. So it was fine. It was.
Don't think about when it wasn't.
Don't think about the fight, when Caleb tried to use Flapjack but got scarred instead so was pushed away. It never felt like he was an object, a bare magical staff to him. It felt like he was being cherished, protected, as a friend.
Don't think about how it was the last of Caleb. The last of his immaculate skin, the last of his gentle smiles. The last of his curious eyes, opened for the world around, because he had fallen for this world and everything in it.
Don't think about the pain, the loneliness, the guilt. How it was too inbearable to stay with the grieving mane woman and her child.
Don't think about how from then on, all Flapjack wanted was to forget.
Don't think about how guilty it made him feel.
...
Don't think about his new life, being protected by the Bat Queen with so many other palismans. A time when things hurt less, but the world doesn't have much colors, and Flapjack prefers not doing what's been told just to feel something less spent.
Don't think about a day like others, where he remembers Caleb, but not all. His face, his figure, his gesture are gone. All that is left is how he used to make him feel.
Don't think about how Flapjack still sings in the morning for him.
Don't think about adoption day, something Flapjack sees as another way to be a bit of a rascal just for the taste of it. He doesn't dislike other witches. There's even one with round ears like Caleb, she seems fun. But the Bat Queen says that there needs to be a click to truly find yourself a witch partner. Flapjack knows that, he felt that a long time ago.
Don't think about the palismans being taken, the fear, and how the round eared girl is calming them down. Flapjack likes her.
Don't think about the crash, don't think about the forest, the uncertanty.
Don't think about the confusion.
Don't think... about the meeting. How at first Flapjack is so very wary of the boy. He stole the palismans, his friends at the end, and round eared girl seems to believe he is evil and Flapjack trusts her enough. He is very rude, very annoying, very not likeable.
Don't think of the chase in the city.
Don't think of the top of the building, the plan, the forced alliance.
Don't think of that talk. One that sparks something so far it is foreign in Flapjack. Because the boy feels different in a world made of magic, he feels purposeless in a time of responsibilities, and yet there is a spark in his eyes when he talks about what a single spell can offer. It's absurd, because it's all pushed back behind a wall of rigor and harshness and yet Flapjack can see it all so clearly.
Don't think about how Flapjack wondered if he was seeing right, because this boy betrayed, lied, he did bad things.
Don't think about how Flapjack knows. My name is Hunter. This boy is much more than what he shows, what his exterior wood might show. Maybe this time it will be the palisman to carve out the best of it.
...
Don't think about how this is not Caleb.
Don't think about how Flapjack knows they are similar in some ways, but this is not him. As they go from witch and "subject of his observations", as he used to call him, to witch and palisman, to actually Hunter and Flapjack, he realizes there are several differences from Caleb and Hunter.
Don't think about how Caleb was older, free, so ready to take onto the world and experience every moment. Hunter is young, bitter and trapped into a cage made of duties and hopes for the future. Caleb was calm and serene very often, an aura of serenity and joy all around him. Hunter seems lost at times, constantly battling what he feels, what he wants and what he needs, losing every single time. Caleb was a carver. Hunter is a guard.
Don't think about the biggest difference, that makes sense to it all to Flapjack. Caleb has been nurturing him for so long, never needing his help. This boy, his new witch, he needed his help. This time, Flapjack was going to be the one taking care of someone.
Don't think about how he already knows how, as he has been taken very good care of in the past. He knows what to do, and wants to be there on every step of the way.
Don't think that Flapjack is ready to protect Hunter no matters what's to come.
And he is not going to lose another friend
In Philip’s memories we only ever see him with his brother, never his parents. The brothers wear tattered clothes and appear to be doing housework, as if they were used to taking care of themselves. Maybe they were orphans?
There’s also the fact that every time Belos and Hunter talk about their past and witches, they use plural terms. Not just “brother” but “family”, implying multiple victims.
There’s one particular memory of the boys running towards a fire, holding pitchforks.
And the Gravesfield history book has this image of a burning house with the bird symbolism, indicating this may have been their family home.
Perhaps the Wittebane parents died in a fire, which was later blamed on a witch?
And here’s a twist: you know how Belos likes to burn things and blame it on witches?
The history book also depicts him holding a torch
And then there’s this
What if young Philip accidentally set fire to their house, causing the death of his parents, and then blamed it on witches?
Dana Terrace has said before that the Clawthorns have a thing for birds, and this is proven true in the show. Every member of the family has a bird palisman-
Now we have seen background palisman who are birds (such as bell goose) but weve never see another witch with a bird palisman until Flapjack chose Hunter.
We know Flapjack had an owner before, and everyones certain its the Wittebro, wouldnt it be weird if birds were a Clawthorne thing but Wittebro was the one exception.
Dell is most likely the orginal holder of the Clawthorne name. I say this cause Gwen says that the Clawthornes are known for their Palisman carving skills and Dell had that role. That being said, look at their side profiles together,
The bridge of the nose and how their hair flows backwards especially sick out here, their far from identical but they definitely look like they could be related.
I think its especially noticeable when you compare hunter to young Dell.
With his hair up you can see the how similar their hair falls.
Okay so this is the biggest piece of evidence is the portraits within Belos' mind, and how they seem to tell the story of how Philip killed his brother after he fell in love with a witch. This post pretty well interprets them as such.
But look at the witch in the portraits,
That first one really looks like young Eda from Echos of the Past.
Thats signature Clawthorne poof hair right there.
The Clawthornes are known for their Palisman carving skills.
And what does one of the portraits show Wittebro doing?
Carving.
Its never stated that you need magic to carve palisman, Hunter doesnt need magic to have one and Eda never says anything about it when she brings the palistrom wood to Luz.
It would be the only skill he could use to in the demon realm to gain a living without magic.
When Eda runs out to the back of the estate she finds these ruins aswell as the damaged portal door.
Going back to the portraits, in the presumably last stand between the brothers we can see that wherever they are, its on fire.
This could be an explanation for the ruins, if this is the old Clawthorne estate then Philip destroyed it.
It would also explain why the portal door was there, if Philip didn't have it of course his brother would. And if his brother knew about his plans to exterminate this place he could bury it to hide it, hence Eda finding it in the dirt.
Well it looks like that witch cursed Philip with something and that Eda's family is way more involved with this that previously thought.
It also means Hunter, on some level, is canonically related to Eda in some way.
