character saturday: my favourite little scoundrel

peregrin swiftfoot - charlatan, flirt, protector

Sometimes you just need your charming, talkative, meddling, protective, lying little scoundrel of a character. I realised that while I've posted various images of him, I never posted just the solo version since he got his new face.

And I just need some Peregrin "Pery to my friends" Swiftfoot energy this week.

He's a design that I look at and think "you know, I should really redo a lot of you because that armor is the very early stuff and it's janky as hell". And I think I tried at some point, and it just... didn't come out like him. For better or for worse, or until Hero Forge completely redesign those armor pieces, this is him.

And I'm not gunna lie. I do miss him. There are only a couple of characters that I miss and that really live in my head rent free. Pery is absolutely one of them. For all the reasons previously discussed.

Anyway.

For the purposes of keeping this as on ongoing diary of sorts, but also not getting into certain things, this is me reminded myself that This Week Was The Week Were All The Things Happened. Or at least started to happen. The Process Begineth. And you survived.

Unnecessarily cryptic, yes. But honestly, I also don't really want to go over it in detail anyway. Just know that it's all good and positive. And let's move on.

This week was Toona Noodle Doo. It's not thrilling, it's just easy.

The Mini Media Reviews for this week were...

Bad Guys 2. Unlike the first one, which was a primer for Furrys with a Praise Kink, the sequel was... boring? And more than a little unfocused. Like I never completely understood why the "bad guy" was doing the thing they were doing. Not The Bad Guys... but the actual villain. I mean superficially I got it, but if that was all it was, it was a little weak.

Tomb Raider. Not the Angelina Jolie ones, the 2018 Alicia Vikander one. Now I fully understand that that movie is based on the rebooted games from the same period. But in that case, both that game and this movie are absolutely somebody's kink. Just a young woman being tortured (not literally, but not not literally) and moaning a lot. The problem is that the plot just feels like a shitty remake of the Angelina ones. Or at least it just made me want to rewatch those ones.

And then I rewatched Murder By Death. Still weird, still very racist, still fairly funny.

I also finished the poncho I've been working on for a while now. And for a change, I actually finished an article of crocheted clothing and didn't immediately frog the whole thing and start over. How useful it's actually going to be once we get to winter remains to be seen. But at least I like the finished product. And if I needed to make a change or two (like actually turn the "sleeves" into a tube), that's still doable.

There was no Friday Night DnD this week because Mr and Mrs were otherwise occupied. Which was also fine, because I'm not sure I had the mental bandwidth anyway.

Anyway...

Rain. Humid, humid rain. Which woke me up at 5am. Because it was loud and heavy. Currently we just have Wet Air. Hopefully that will lessen slightly if the big rain that's supposed to happen in the next hour and a half actually does it's thing.

Thankfully everything we needed to do today either happened indoors or else during the lulls in the rain. So that was helpful.

Otherwise it was just the supermarket.

And then some general Doing Of Things. Including applying for postal voting for Ma and I. Because fuck going on the day and fuck having to deal with what happened last time. No thank you. I mean, I barely care anyway, because the whole thing is essentially bullshit, but I'll do what's required. Just on my terms.

That was it really.
