Okay
OKAY
So this is me shamelessly talking like a first grader who just got handed money to buy whatever the hecc they want in a candy store
This hammer
THIS. HAMMER. (Continued below cut)
Is the draw hammer i learned to forge my first blades with by my friend and mentor who has been teaching me his blacksmithing skills and i can't even tell you how much it feeds my silly little soul to now possess it.
Especially since i was unable to find one just like it; i am so excited to start my forge up in the nearer future. I have a lot to do yet tho set up my workshop and continue working on my body's physical condition so I'll be ABLE to do smithing
Anyhow
Yeah
I just wanted to squeal about this because it's kind of a huge life moment for me. Actually no not kind of, it just plain is. I'm very, very happy and excited and holy heck I've wanted this for so long and now i have everything i need to start my own blades and armor workshop space and AAAAAAAAAAAAAH
There was also something very sweet and get soothing; while I knew i would be getting the hanger this week, i managed to completely forget about i for several days after much eagerness ensuring the delivery would happen.
i found one of my Mjolnir necklaces the night prior, and then my mom came home telling her sorry of the week and showing pictures and telling me how their drive home was very blessed because they drive in the eye of a very, very big bad storm system most the way home and had a perfectly safe drive and even saw the coolest super low to Earth Rainbow. Then she plopped the hammer in my hands.
Anyhow yeah it felt like a very important piece of my life taking into place alongside other pieces and i just feel like I'm exactly where i want and need to be right now.
This is Snivel; she's the result of a "make a One Piece character" forum thread. I was originally going to go for more of an out and out vampire look but I saw this one image of Peter Cushing's Van Helsing where he's making a cross out of some candleholders and decided to pivot in that direction.
She's an escaped slave by way of lucking into a devil fruit and on the way out she assaulted a celestial dragon who I've decided to call Saint Grape, draining all his blood and then flying to safety before passing out. This Grape guy unfortunately survived and called the marines on her but whichever one found her took the bold moral stance that the child-killing that would be on his hands would be bad so he pretended not to have seen her. It turns out Grape was, and remains, such a cataclysmic drinker that Snivel is still not sober over a decade after the fact, so she's turned to a life of coffee-centric piracy.
It was an interesting challenge trying to figure out how to do a bug Zoan since I couldn't find any examples; I think Oda avoids them because it's less intuitive to translate human expressions onto insect faces. What I decided to do is have the maxillary palps do that job, though of course I'm not quite slavishly honouring the anatomy of a real mosquito anyway.

THE MEN OF SHERWOOD FOREST (Dir: Val Guest, 1954).
An early production from Hammer Films, The Men of Sherwood Forest is a low budget but spirited romp with Don Taylor as the legendary Robin Hood.
The simple plot involves Robin attempting to thwart an ambush attack on Richard the Lionheart on his return from the Crusades.
More famous for their Horror movies, Hammer also did a nice line in swashbucklers; the studio produced four Robin Hood movies, of which this was the first.
Although clearly working with a meagre budget, director Val Guest makes decent use of outdoor locales and the movie feels less studio bound than might be expected. It also benefits from being shot in colour and whilst the action is not as well staged as in a more lavish production, Guest generally elicits decent performances from his actors, not all of whom are perfectly cast.
Don Taylor makes for a slightly bland leading man. There is nothing essentially wrong with his performance and with an athletic build he certainly looks the part of Robin. However with an accent that is more Hollywood than Sherwood, Taylor lacks both the authenticity and charisma of earlier Robin Hoods such as Errol Flynn or Richard Todd. Likewise, Leonard Sachs is not ideally cast as The Sheriff of Nottingham, lacking both the authoritative air and any real sense of menace to make a truly memorable villain.
The best performances are to be found in the supporting cast. Maid Marian is inexplicably missing from The Men of Sherwood Forest; her replacement here is Lady Alys in a nice performance by Eileen Moore. A loyal ally to Robin, she holds her own with the best of the Merrie Men, but there is no romance between the two. Robin’s most significant relationship here is with Friar Tuck. As the wily man of the cloth cum con artist Reginald Beckwith gives a marvellous comic performance which is arguably the movie's highlight.
While The Men of Sherwood Forest is no masterpiece, as an example of the sort of boys own adventure that once filled matinees, it is invaluable. Cheap and cheerful maybe, but also engagingly innocent, old fashioned fun.
