go to this random coordinates generator and say in the tags how you would fare if you were dropped where it generates without warning. i’ll go first i’d be dropped in the middle of the fucking south atlantic ocean and perish
when the fandom is so small that everybody knows everybody
never getting over Dors casually dropping the most precise description of foundation era Daneel: “The trouble with him is he’s so used to knowing, he sometimes forgets that others occasionally don’t know”
love how Daneel sometimes shows his judgemental side when it comes to Dors choosing Hari-the-manfailure-Seldon as her most beloved human being cause if Dors ever got a chance to meet Elijah she would also be like. seriously. this guy. and Daneel would be just sitting deadpan like yes why
nothing beats being into something with a really small fandom because you'll get like 7 notes on a post and it's like WOAHHH THE GANG'S ALL HERE ‼️‼️
I wonder if Giskard pushed Daneel and Elijah to make those confessions to Vasilia... He cannot insert thoughts and feelings that aren't there, he just brings them out and it's easier when the subjects are already inclined to say it. I just find it intriguing how both Daneel and Elijah were surprised at their own confessions, it really was almost out of nowhere, which is why I think Giskard gave a lil push. Only I have no idea why Giskard would do that. Was he trying to prove a point?

The ladies love him for his inferiority complex, megalomania and intensely psychopathic paranoia 💜
So, do you remember that art poll, a couple months ago, where you asked to see a Greek pottery-style Dors?
Well, here she finally is!
(Some commentary under the cut. Feel free to skip, but if you like the drawing please like, leave a comment or reblog! It means the world to me 💓)
Well, after almost ten hours of work... here it is! My aim was to only use black and red/ocre-ish color used in Ancient Greek pottery, which turned out for what is basically a second attempt! In terms of drawing style though, I steered towards another direction and, for the pose and clothes, I drew inspiration from a 1797 painting of Clio, the Muse of History. This reference just seemed fair to me: after all, Dors being a historian is one of her most prominent character traits, and a lovely one at that. The Muse's traditional attributes of tablet and stylus, pictured in the reference portrait, fit her character so I decided to keep them. The laurel crown was also referenced from the painting and, although it's not traditional, I kept it mostly because I associate Dors with leaf and/or flower patterns. After all, she's the Gift of Spring! I also decided to give one of her drapes a striped pattern, to recall her nickname, "The Tiger Woman". Last but not least, I decided to play around with shadows a bit, mostly on the draperies. Certainly not something you can find on pottery, but nevertheless a nice touch.
Congrats if you've made it so far! I hope you've enjoyed this piece, and I'd love to hear your thoughts about it.
not now sweetie mommy’s blogging about something that 5 people care about
Sometimes I think about that one bit in "The Robots of Dawn" where Daneel explains to Elijah that on Aurora there are Specialized Robots to raise kids, and neither him or Giskard have that ability. And then I think that Giskard sort of raised Vasilia.
Imagine when Vasilia was really tiny, Han Fastolfe going to Giskard "Oh I'm going a few days out for a scientific Conference please keep an eye on Vasilia" and Giskard Panicking. Fastolfe comes back home three days later and Giskard is now "Babysitter Supreme"

Hari: Wanna play 20 questions?
Dors: Sure thing! What's your favorite color?
Hari: Triangle

Dors, Fallom and Arkady for the unhinged character bingo :3
Okay so
- Dors Venabili
Ah yes she's fine. She lived a happy life with her husband. Nothing bad happened I swear. Canon is an optional if we believe it hard enough
- Fallom
I think we all agree Fallom deserved Better since the whole time in the book was Suffering.
- Arkady Darell
Preem Palver I'm meeting you behind the convince store with my matches at midday. Bring three people to testimony it was a regular duel with you.
Dors Venabili save me... save me Dors Venabili...
(aka I felt down on Friday evening, sketched wifey, spent all Saturday turning said sketch into a colored drawing, tried different backgrounds and now I'm posting the versions I like most :D)
Enjoy!
(No background version and original sketch under the cut!)
Let's kill jax
Uh so I made a character bingo if anyone wants to try it (:
people born in 24 Are 2000 now
im right and i should say it
You know what, Giskard is creepy. He really killed his brother for the sake of dubious prospects. If think about it more then minute, ohhhh it's unjustifiably and cruelly...
Had to throw this together after being struck with inspiration.
Smth I’m working on
Peace and love
