OC ask meme: 5, 13, 18, 28 for Alfdis and Gunnora!
5. How easy is it to earn their mistrust?
Pretty easy for both of them! Alfdis is prettily easily hurt by people who break her trust and she gets very mad about it. However, she’s a lot quicker to forgive than she seems, and you can earn her trust back pretty easily. Gunnora on the other hand, is kind of the opposite. It takes a lot to break her trust in you, but once you’ve broken it, she can really hold a grudge.
13. What color do they think they look best in? Do they actually look best in that color?
Alfdis is fond of blues and greens, and yeah, she looks pretty good in them! Gunnora doesn’t really have a preferred color she looks best in, she just wears the clothing she has available, which is mostly a range of browns and reds. TBQH brown and red is probably not her best color, but IDK what would be?
18. What embarrasses them?
Alfdis is pretty hard to embarrass. Mostly she feels embarrassed when she realizes that she’s made a fool of herself in the past - it’s really her own failings that embarrass her. Gunnora tends to get more embarrassed by people teasing her over things, and she can also get secondhand embarrassment when other people do embarrassing things.
28. Would they prefer a lie over an unpleasant truth?
No, I don’t think either of them would. Alfdis hates being lied to (although she’s fine lying to others), and Gunnora would feel really betrayed if she was lied to and then found out about it.

From the Beginning | Latest Page
Der Wind hat gesagt, mein wahrer Name ist Alfdis„..., manchmal glaube ich, sie steht in Verbindung mit den alten Göttern, so wie die Heiligen mit den ihren. Vielleicht reden sie mit ihr, ich weiß es nicht. Sie hat mir gestern Abend gesagt, es werden dunkle Zeiten kommen.“Zusammenfassung/Inhalt „Mannaz“Dorothe Reimann zeigt in ihrem Fantasyroman „Mannaz“, wie mutige Menschen versuchen, ihren Traum von Leben umzusetzen.Ingrid und ihre Schwester Bärbel leben seit dem Tod der Eltern bei Onkel und Tante. Ingrid ist Kunstschmiedin und finanziert, was sie und ihre Schwester Bärbel zum Leben brauchen.Aber das Leben stellt die beiden vor neue Herausforderungen: Onkel und Tante, sind in einem Alter, in dem sie den Hof nicht mehr selbst bewirtschaften können und wollen verkaufen und sich in einer Seniorenanlage niederlassen.Schnell wird klar, dass sich Ingrid und Bärbel eine neue Bleibe suchen müssen. Das stellt insofern ein Problem dar, dass Ingrid um Schmuck herzustellen, eine kleine Schmiede benötigt. Bärbel ist gehandicapt und arbeitet in der Behindertenwerkstätte.Aber nicht nur die äußeren Umstände verändern sich. Auch Bärbel verändert sich. Sie wird zu Alfdis. „Mein Name ist anders.“„Wie lautet dein Name? Und wer hat ihn dir gegeben?“„Der Wind hat gesagt, mein wahrer Name ist Alfdis. Geist. Ein Name der alten Sprache.“Beim Recherchieren zum Namen „Alfdis“ habe ich im Internet noch herausgefunden, dass der Name, ein nordischer Mädchenname ist, der wie im Buch schon erwähnt Geist bedeutet. Die Seite Firstname gibt noch die Auskunft (es ist ein Nutzerbeitrag), dass sich der altnordische Namen aus Alf und dis zusammensetzt: Elfe + Geist. Schwedische und norwegische Herkunft wird auch noch angeboten.Worum geht es in „Mannaz“?Es geht um Lebensmodelle. Was bedeutet es, ein gutes Leben zu führen? Welche Sehnsucht wollen wir stillen? Was bedeutet es als Sippe zusammenzuleben?Im Duden und in anderen Lexika wird die Sippe als Lebensgemeinschaft in der Steinzeit definiert. Großfamilie durch gemeinsame verwandtschaftliche Beziehungen abgegrenzte Gruppe.In Dorothe Reimanns Buch "Mannaz" möchten Menschen mit ähnlichen Wertevorstelllungen zu einer Sippe zusammenwachsen. Jeder Einzelne bringt seine eigene Vergangenheit und seine Erfahrungen und Sehnsüchte mit. Fazit/Kritik „Mannaz“„Mannaz“ gefällt mir gut, weil es die Suche nach dem guten Leben beschreibt, das jeder von uns möchte. Aber ein gutes Leben birgt nicht für jeden den gleichen Inhalt. Wir alle haben nicht immer die gleichen Wertvorstellungen. Wir haben auch nicht die gleichen Einsichten.Beim Lesen identifizierte ich mich selbst mit den Protagonisten und fragte mich, welche Sehnsüchte ich stillen möchte. Mit welchen Erwartungen würde ich an dieses Projekt herangehen?Leben wie die Altvorderen? Ein Gedanke, der mich zugleich anzieht und zurückschrecken lässt. Auf meinen Computer verzichten? Nicht mehr ins Internet gehen? Unser Auto verkaufen? Keinen Thermomix mehr verwenden?Dennoch sagt in mir etwas, dass man für den Verzicht vielleicht etwas Wertvolleres zurückbekäme. Rezensionen sind immer etwas sehr Subjektives. Mir gefällt das Buch sehr gut. Dennoch möchte ich doch in meinem Leben bleiben. Was haltet ihr davon, wie die Altvorderen zu leben?Wenn ihr wissen wollt, wie die Autorin von „Mannaz“, Dorothe Reimann, darüber denkt, schaut auf den Blog, ab Mittwoch, 5. Juli 2023, könnt ihr das Interview mit ihr lesen. Mein herzlicher Dank geht an die Autorin für die Bereitstellung des Rezensionsexemplars.Bis dahin wünsche ich euch eine erfreuliche Lesezeit!Connie RuoffWeiterführende Links zu „Mannaz“Die Autorin bei FacebookRezension „Elegie des Großen Krieges“ Dorothe Reimann
We are only a few short weeks away from the return of Alfdis and Gunnora! I hope you are all as excited as I am to start this brand-new chapter!
Alfdis and Gunnora will return on December 19th for the EXTREME A+G CHAPTER DUMP! This will feature brand-new pages every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday until the end of January, and will be ALL of Chapter 10: Mother’s Knife, Daughter’s Sword.
I’m super pumped to apply the things I’ve learned here at the Center for Cartoon Studies to Alfdis and Gunnora! For instance, after my experience with traditional tools, during this chapter I plan to do some traditional inking, and, if possible, I’m gonna use my new digital coloring techniques learned here. You can see some of what I’ve been learning on my art blog, especially assignments done for CCS!
Are you ready for the return of Alfdis and Gunnora? Because I can’t wait!

3, 6, and 17 for any character you've *really* been wanting to talk about
what if i do, like, six characters and answer the questions for all of them.
Alfdis
3. Real World/ Modern AU Profession?
Alfdis would almost certainly be the rich child of some kind of billionaire who inherits her fortune and maybe becomes a reality TV star.
6. What role would they play / Who would they be in Disney!Verse?
She’s Jasmine. I mean, apart from being white, she’s very, very much like Jasmine.
17. What makes them laugh/cry/get pissed? What is happiness to them?
She laughs at little jokes - loves sarcasm, and her brother Sigfried is super funny. Alfdis kinda cries at the drop of hat - she cries when she’s startled, when she loses someone, sometimes when she’s angry, when she’s super tired. She cries the most in the comic. She tends to get angry over little things - she’ll blow up really bad but then forget it easily and it’ll blow over. Happiness for her is mostly about what she perceives to be adventure and excitement.
Gunnora
3. Real World/ Modern AU Profession?
Soldier. Probably in the Army but she could probably do Marines too.
6. What role would they play / Who would they be in Disney!Verse?
Honestly I’m not 100% sure. It sounds silly and cliche to say Aladdin when I decided Alfdis was Jasmine, but street rat/princess is kind of their deal? There aren’t a whole lot of soldiers in the Disney verse.
17. What makes them laugh/cry/get pissed? What is happiness to them?
Okay nobody has seen this in the comic yet, but Gunnora loves dirty jokes. Like toilet and sex humor. She doesn’t cry very often - really she only cries over really BIG things, like, y’know, her whole city and possibly her family getting blown up. (Only time she’s cried onscreen in the comic wheeeee!) When Gunnora gets pissed, it’s usually over VERY BIG things, and it’s usually a bottled up anger. She has a lot of self-loathing, and she tends to hold grudges, sit on her anger. When she lashes out, it lasts a long time. Gunnora doesn’t really..... allow herself to really think about being happy.
Tiaca
3. Real World/ Modern AU Profession?
Military, ex-military, or para-military radical revolutionary.
6. What role would they play / Who would they be in Disney!Verse?
................... i am hard pressed to think of a radical revolutionary who fits tiaca in the disney verse........... maybe esmerelda i guess? maybe????
17. What makes them laugh/cry/get pissed? What is happiness to them?
tiaca does not laugh. not anymore. she cries almost every night for the people she’s lost. she is constantly pissed, mostly at the way her people are treated, especially by the Devil Monsters (aka elves). she will never be happy until all the Devil Monsters are wiped off the face of the earth. then maybe she can rejoin her clan.
Aste Hatez
3. Real World/ Modern AU Profession?
Either a teacher, or a priest. Possibly like, a professor at a seminary or something? I can even see him as a guidance counselor.
6. What role would they play / Who would they be in Disney!Verse?
He is definitely a mentor-type or religious figure.... I can see him as Friar Tuck or maybe Bagheera.
17. What makes them laugh/cry/get pissed? What is happiness to them?
Aste Hatez is a man of simple pleasures - little things amuse him, especially physical/slapstick humor. He also loves stories. He doesn’t cry much - as a priest/hatez, he’s come to terms with the kinds of loss that happen to his people. He doesn’t do anger or confrontation well. He would be happiest if his people weren’t constantly at war, and he got to guide yearlings on their spiritual journeys and had no responsibility to guide the clan.
Ašizi (I know you don’t really know her, but I love her, a lot.)
3. Real World/ Modern AU Profession?
Ašizi would absolutely be a politician. Possibly by way of a law degree.
6. What role would they play / Who would they be in Disney!Verse?
She’s sort of a cross between all the typical magical villains, but she strikes me as most similar to Jafar. (I’m sorry for all the Aladdin comparisons god sorry)
17. What makes them laugh/cry/get pissed? What is happiness to them?
She laughs easily - her humor can sometimes be a bit cruel/nasty, but she’s one of the few goblins who regularly laughs. Crying? Not very often. Like most goblins, she doesn’t cry easily, and has come to terms with death and loss. Her anger is a cold, slow-burning anger - it’s vicious and calculated and intelligent, which is what makes her dangerous. In her perfect world, she is the leader of a race of goblins who are strong enough that no one and nothing can stand against them.
Žaez
3. Real World/ Modern AU Profession?
Right now, she’s a student, most likely a biology or chemistry major.
6. What role would they play / Who would they be in Disney!Verse?
Merida.
17. What makes them laugh/cry/get pissed? What is happiness to them?
Žaez is an angry, angry young goblin. She is full of a righteous anger at the way goblins are treated, she is full of petty anger at people who try to order her around,she is angry when she is disciplined and has to do menial jobs, and sometimes she gets angry at attractive people because they’re attractive and it’s distracting and frustrating. Her humor is dark, sarcastic, and often cruelly directed at other people. She most often cries for no reason, (and that makes her angry). She sometimes cries when she’s angry, too, which makes everything worse.
Alfdis was so proud of herself in this moment as she slinked up behind the man. She went ahead and shifted seamlessly into her common form copper hair rolling over her shoulder in waves. Her sea-foam green eyes filled with a flood of happiness. Her fair skinned hand reached out tapping the man on the shoulder. She knew he would not know of her on sight but she would explain herself. “Loki?”
Fun fact: Alfdis can dance. Actually, Alfdis dances incredibly well. She mostly does traditional Gamilin Faham partner dances and Westerisle line dances, but she also knows the steps to a few elvish dances, though they're often hard to pull off if you're not six feet tall and built like a string bean.
