i remembered I made this someday

Detailing dragon wings.

This is how I make my wings for Toothless! First, sew wings together, leaving them inside out. Gently spritz some spray adhesive to them. You don’t need much. Next, place the wing onto some fleece interfacing and pat it until it’s fully adhered. Cut the interfacing around the wing then carefully trim the interfacing to match your seam allowance.

Then, cut two layers of water soluble interfacing and sandwich your wing between them, after turning your wing rightside out and brushing the minky from the seams. Pull the interfacing taut and secure with pins. Take a water soluble fabric pen and draw your details on the top interfacing. Sew over the lines you drew with matching thread, using a couple backstitches at the end to secure them. Once finished, tear off your interfacing from both sides and voila!

blood is not kosher

assuming vampires breathe, and are therefore alive, what do they do

If they’re alive and they need it to survive, it’s permitted (provided they don’t kill people in so doing).

If they’re not alive, halacha doesn’t apply to them.

Either way, there is no reasonable halachic restriction on a vampire drinking blood.

but would it need to be from a kosher animal can they drink, like, dolphin blood

Okay now that gets interesting and I would want to actually ask a rabbi whether that would be a thing.  like, if one must consume the blood of living things to survive, does it make a difference whether one limits it to the blood of kosher animals or not.  I could see it being ruled either way.  (I would think if there is only one type of blood one can metabolize or if only one type of blood is available, one can consume it regardless.)

I remember learning that human blood (not sure about animal blood) is permissible to consume if it has not been “poresh” (”separated”) from the body (in the context of “if you cut your lip or your finger and immediately and instinctively put it in your mouth, you don’t have to spit out the blood”).

So 

Drinking blood out of a goblet or vacuum-sealed bag would be assur, but sinking your teeth into someone and drinking directly (so that the blood never touches the air or is in a vessel) would be okay.

I know that applies to one’s own blood, but I don’t know if the principle applies to someone else’s.  But it may count as a possible precedent!

Okay, so I asked my rabbi about this (… yes, my actual rabbi). Short answer, @fenrisesque​, is that the ideal situation is for the vampire to intravenously ingest blood that was donated by a human in order to stay alive, assuming that donation doesn’t kill the person. If homemade intravenously doesn’t work, then storebought oral ingestion is fine too. This applies whether or not the vampire can drink animal blood. Long answer, which I find fascinating but is long so under a cut:

Funny old world

I’m fascinated by the repetition of this phrase. If I’m remembering correctly, Lesley the International Express delivery person (“The Summoner” in the voice of God) uses it, too, when he delivers the crown to Pollution streamside.

You're amazing. I was wracking my brain trying to remember if it came up again because I felt like it didn't but couldn't place it. Thank you for adding that in.

It didn't. Trust me.

if there's one thing we can learn from this booping experience it's that we need to give people notes and interact with them for tumblr to be fun and thriving

"we need the boop button to stay" no we don't. tumblr already got lots of buttons to press every day. look at those beauties right here ↘

I love you,I love you,I love you

They switch for sure, but in this scene… that’s pretty much it lol

Neil Gaiman once said:

“I love the idea of what Crowley's idea of Aziraphale is. His idea is a lot more heroic and standing-up to everybody than Aziraphale's idea of Aziraphale.”

“Just as Aziraphale's idea of Crowley is somebody who can be flippant and insouciant when faced with the monsters of Hell”.

“They're probably each rather better at dealing with things than the other one is, but that's what they think the other one is probably like, and I love that”.

Well, I love that too.

...I missed the whole boop thing on here 😭

I’m sweating through my eyes 😭

reblog to give more people the chance for one last boop!
