A completed piece? From Me?

It’s More Likely Than You Think

My poor puppy Harley, recently broke her leg and had to get surgery. She’s fine thankfully and the cast will actually come off next week! Since then she’s had this big donut cone around her neck, and her baby teeth have been coming out.

She’s looked like this adorable Fu Dog and before I knew it, she had her own adorable book cover!

She is the Keeper of Donuts!

Ladybug fandom can you explain why pappillion is both translated as hawk moth and butterfly. Like are their context cues I'm missing. How is Paris scared of hawk moth and not the less intimidating butterfly.

Headcanon: Pacifica

(Before Sinday begins for me, I give you where Ash and Team CAMO are currently based out of).

Every continent on Remnant has islands off its coasts. Sheered off by water action, by cataclysmic incidents with the tectonics, or simply having formed seperatly, they dot the coastlines of most of Remnant's landmasses.

Solitas is no different. And because its Solitas, and the majority of it is a frozen hellscape, almost every single one has at least some habitation.

One has...quite a lot.

(Please excuse the WoR map, I couldnt find a proper official one and RT are jerks and wont make one that actually works)

This is the island of Pacifica, the largest island in the south-west of Solitas, directly west of Atlas itself and the closest settlement to the small port of Cross's Landing.

Though here it is one single, large island, it is in fact a psudo-chain; the large island of Pacifica, the smaller northerly island of Wakattu, and the uninhabited, cloud-shrouded isle of Peliu.

Though they are the closest island to Atlas, the people who live there are not actually Atlesian, in bloodline or in government. They come from much older stock, a remnant if you will of a forgotten age.

Originally a mostly bare island, with a minor native population of marine faunus (primarily orcas) originating from nearby Wakattu, Pacifica was first founded during the Great War, when (being the closest island to Sanus, which is almost directly south of it via Vytal) it was utilized as an arms and embarkation base alongside Cross's Landing to load the invasion force that would eventually steamroll through northern Vale. As the decade of the Great War rolled on, a city formed to support the base, and to allow for the production, repair, enhancement and resupply of military goods of every sort. As it became more and more important, and more equipment flowed into it, its military asset grew as well. And as the war ground on, Mantle began to fear a counter attack from Vytal into it, and from there, a stepping stone to Solitas itself.

And so they set about building Pacifica into an unbreakable Iron Cage; delving to the shallow sea floor, they raised great walls, thicker even than the ones that would later defend Mantle itself, bristling with Dust shield projectors and defensive batteries. The island itself was enforced with gun batteries, missile systems, aircraft launch systems, air strips, and dockyards for the entire Mantle Navy. A full Army was stationed there at all times, usually new recruits cutting their teeth in combat against raiding parties from Vale or the Grimm that seemed to constantly be attracted to Peliu. The populous was slowly consumed into this, making the island a military nation-state with the explicet purpose of brunting every and all aggression from Vale to Mantle.

And then the Great War ended in Vacuo. Everything stopped. Peace filled the world and everyone was happy.

Except for Pacifica. They weren't particularly happy about what had happened...and they liked the power they had now. No longer were they merely a small outpost of something greater, they had TEETH now.

No pirate or bandit thought to approach them for they new the agonizingly fast death that would result. Aside from Peliu, the Grimm were no threat. Even the Wakattu, who at first had been hesitant to have so much equipment, so close, were grateful to have Pacifica's guns around when the largest of aquatic Grimm inevitably swam to their islands shores, seeking the creature that the people and the island itself were named for, as they had done for time immortal.

So when Mantle offered to take all their equipment back and restore the island to what it was before, the Pacifican Preatorian Defender (their equivilent of a king, or headmaster, or ruler) promptly told them, in no uncertain terms, to "fuck right off". Then Pacifica raised their sheilds, rolled out their guns, and stood on alert for anyone trying to come and take their power by force.

No one did of course. The time after the Great War was one of rebuilding. Mantle simply left Pacifica to do its own thing and 80 years of peace did the rest. Pacifica eventually became a productive member of the King of Vale's imagined peaceful Remnant.

Currently the nation is considered an island-state, with no official affiliation to any kingdom, but heavy trade ties to Atlas specifically (for obvious reasons). Their main imports are technology and Dust, unsurprisingly, with their main exports being aquatic food of all kinds, certain medicines Atlas can't make themselves, and enhancements to existing tech using some of the machinery that Mantle left behind. They also mildly trade with Vale for produce.

At least, that was the situation till the Fall of Vale...and, more recently, the Fall of Atlas.

During the Second Fall, Pacifica went into full military mode again; members of the Pacifica Guard swear up and down the Leviathan Grimm was approaching Pacifica itself, saw how many guns it had pointed at it and the swarm of interceptor fighters and the men and women in armor standing ready to face it...and it turned for Atlas because it would be a softer target.

When the CCTS went down fully, the island effectively went dark, relying on its internal equipment to maintain coms between units and citizens, unable to contact the outside world.

Needless to say, it was a rather nasty shock when, about a day into the siege of Atlas, an airship arrived.

Formerly an SDC Dust carrier, retrofitted into a heavily militarized "pleasure boat", this was the Final Solution, the personal vessel of Tahoma Vulcan of Vulcan Arms. On board was almost every Vulcan Arms employee, several dozen Mantle civilians who'd been swept up, every surviving Atlas "Helljumper" lead by their leader Hood Vulcan, the majority of the ladies of Madam Pappillion's Crystal Unicorn hotel (formerly the Glass Unicorn) alongside the Madam herself...

And Hunter-Killer Fireteam CAMO.

The uproar was quite something, but quickly settled down to military precision, as those that could fight were quickly and seamlessly folded into Pacifica's existing defensive measures.

The Madam and her ladies bid their leave here to settle on Wakattu, reuniting the Madam with her former bodyguard and head of security, Matriarch (head of the Wakattu tribe and its various pods) and the civilians were dispersed into the overall population to rest and recover.

And then literally half a day later, the shattered, battered remains of Atlas's Second Fleet arrived, First having headed south for Argus.

They told a horror story of what happened, of the destruction of the Whale by the Ace Ops, of Ironwoods sudden madness, and how, based on what they'd last seen, the kingdom was GONE, crashed into the tundra, burying Mantle with it.

With precision their forces were folded in as well, forming the First United Solitasian Protectorate Fleet.

And at some point during this, the 2500 meter long monstrosity known as the Spirit of Ice arrived...

And THEN, as if that wasn't enough, a couple dozen scrap-built ships came rolling in from the west, from the seemingly uninhabited dragon continent, all bearing the Grimm Eye of Salem.

Cultists, apparently, humans twisted to her worship or something similar. Madmen and savages to an individual...but in no way, shape, or form even near combat ready.

The USPF SLAUGHTERED them. The vindictive feeling soothed the rage of the Atlesians, and united them all in a common goal. A pact formed in blood of the unworthy, as the Lord Preatorian said.

As of now, Pacifica is the most defended settlement in the north of Remnant. And as of recently, they've finally begun opening the shield again to let teams out, to begin probing the tundra, the Atlas Wastes, and the new lake that covers both kingdoms...

And to let the Hunter-Killer team that shelters among them do their job once more.

My brother is playing Persona 5 and one of the major villains is played by the guy who plays Hawkmoth.  He’s using his Hawkmoth voice.  Also, a deleted code name for one of the characters was “Pappillion”

And I’m just here going.... there is CLEARLY some sort of AU here. I’m not sure what it is, but there is something.

[official-ladyblog]

Tbh though while there is sexism "The Butterfly" isn't as menacing. Mariposa or Pappillion sound menacing but try to say Butterfly in a serious tone.

Mariposa? You think “Mariposa” is menacing, when all that does for me is remind me of the Barbie movie??

Fr tho, I just think it doesn’t sound “menacing” to people because you have the connotations of girliness and fragility that have been associated with butterflies themselves for years. It’s not inherent in the word – what about the substance “butter” and the concept of flight are feminine? – but it has everything to do with little girl merchandise having butterflies all over them or fairies with insect wings being marketed towards girls.

Lyric

A few days ago, I posted about finding out that he is, in fact, petunia’s son.

That’s because these finally grew in enough for the spots to become visible.

Which look exactly like Petunia’s Moon Spots

Fun facts time!

Petunia (Classic Old Frill) is a Blue Lace Satinette Spot-Tail

Blue is his base color.

Lace and Spot-tail are a combination of a fascinating pair of bronze genes called Frill Stencil and Toy Stencil, respectively.

(Satinette refers to a stenciled bird that is marked only on the wing shields and tail. It’s a specific pattern of Pibaldism that we’ll get into the importance of later.)

Unlike other bronzes that intensify color, Frill and Toy stencil mute it.

Petunia’s delicate lacing is the effect of two copies of Stencil on a T-pattern Checker.

Here is a Brown Bar COF.

Notice that the Stencil gene only effects the intensely pigmented markings, NOT the back ground color.

Two copies completely whitens the bar or check feathers.

One copy mutes them to a faded brown color referred to as a Root beer Stain.

Homozygous babies like this one often start out with rootbeer stained feathers.

That molt out into their true white color.

Lyric is heterozygous Ash Red.

And as we mentioned previously:

So are Papillion (Sooty Bar)

Cookie (Sooty T-pattern)

Pinto (Sooty T-pattern)

and Mia (Sooty t-pattern)

Look at Lyric’s little spots of color. Pay attention to where they are.

Now look back up at the Ash Reds. Notice that only the T-patterns are fully red above the bar level.

Our one Bar (Papillion) is grey with red Sooty flecking everywhere but her Bars, neck, flights and tail.

Lyrics color above bar makes him a T-pattern, like his Dad.

He is lighter than the other Heterozygous Ash reds because of that one copy his Dad’s Frill Stencil muting the color of his feathers, but because he only got one, isn’t fully lacing them.

He has his Daddy’s Spot Tail.

Ok. NOW we can get into the Pibaldism.

Remember what I said earlier about Satinette being a specifically selected pattern of Pibaldism where only the wing shields and tail are colored?

Let’s keep that in mind while we look at Yun in reference to Lyric and Petunia.

We already know Yun is his mother beyond any shadow of doubt. She laid his egg.

There are LOTS of different genotypes that can lead to a bull eyed pure white phenotype, but only one that reacts with a pattern of Pibaldism to make offspring with less color.

Albinism is impossible because her eyes are black. Albinism makes melanin impossible for any of the body’s cells to produce. The eyes of albino animals are red because you can see the blood vessels.

Extreme Dilute will whiten a bird everywhere but the eyes, buuuut that bird is still self marked.

As we have seen with a pattern pied crossed with a non-pied bird:

Ferdi (Bald head: Pied bird who should have white flights, tail, and legs and be white from the chin to the back of the crown on the head, and from the base of the breast down, giving the over all impression of wearing a shirt)

combined with Penny (Very light, but no actual white anywhere on her.)

To make Papillion (Mismarked bald head. White flights, with some white splashing on the face and belly)

Cookie (White flights, some white tail feathers, some white splashing on her mostly colored legs and belly, mostly white face splashed with color.)

And Biscuit (white flights, white pants, some white tail feathers, some white splashing on mostly colored face.)

Note that all three pied x nonpied offspring have significantly less white than their pied parent.

There are several forms of pibaldism in pigeons, most of which are recessive, but some of which seem to be dominant or partial dominant.

White sides (wing shields), white tail, and white flights, for example, are all separate forms of pibaldism that can be passed on independently or in combination.

For example, the form of Pibaldism that marks Old German Owls only on their wing shields inherits differently from the Bald Head pattern: More like a true recessive.

Case in point: Cooper x Astrid

Cooper (Grizzled. Not Pied.)

and Astrid (Shield marked Pied)

Made Pitch

And Cheeks

Who are both Grizzled, but not pied. Both carry pied, but neither express it.

Now, let’s look at what happens when you breed two kinds of Pied.

Hello again, Ferdi. (Bald Head pattern Pied, which we’ve seen expressed when crossed with a non-pied mate)

And hello again, Astrid! (Shield marked Pied, which did not show up in any capacity in offspring from a non-pied mate.)

Made Mia

and Brandy.

Look at the combination of Bald Head extending the reach of the Shield Mark, and Shield Mark shrinking the reach of Bald Head.

Let’s look one more time at

Petunia (Shield and tail marked pied)

Yun (a likely combination of pied)

and Lyric.

In Lyric, we can clearly see Petunia’s shield and tail breaking through Yun’s more intensive full body pied as well as Yun’s full body pied minimizing Petunia’s Shield and Tail marks, exactly the way Ferdi’s Bald Head and Astrid’s Sheild Mark patterns reacted in Mia and Brandy.

We do NOT see the complete clack of pibald expression in Lyric that we do in Pitch and Cheeks or the drastic reduction of expression that we saw in Pappillion, Cookie, and Biscuit, which rules out Yun being Extreme Dilute and makes Luca vary unlikely.

But if Lyric were still a hen...

None of this would matter.

Petey and Yun couldn’t physically produce a red hen.

But peeps vents are known to do some shape shifting, and I hadn’t checked in a while.

Sure enough, I flipped him over, and he had a puckered, smiley butt.

Between that, his combination of Pibald expressions

and having inherited the Ash Red version

Of Petunia’s Moon Spots

We can conclude that Petunia is Lyric’s biological father

And Yun is an extreme pied Ash Red.

Just thought of something happy

When I was at the vet, picking up my doggo after her surgery, there was a lady checking in at the same time as me who had a very nervous shelltie-pappillion mix.

This little pupper was so cute and fluffy but it was obviously scared and when I looked away from it for a moment to answer some of the receptionist’s question this little baby ran over and tangled itself around my legs. Her owner explained that it was probably because my sweater. She said her dog loved blankets and gave a little wave of her hand toward my long ruffley sweater (imagine something Stevie Nix would wear.) not sure if this was supposed to be an insult (I live in a pretty snobby for no reason area) but I was like “ok.” I detangled my legs from the dog’s leash and gave my sweater a drag-queen worthy toss so that the pupper was hidden under my sweater like it had its own personal blanket fort and then, until I got called to get my baby, I spent my time snuggling a very happy little fluff ball who was leaning against my leg and staring up at me like I was the God of all things warm and snuggly.

So, 🤪 I may not be perfect but animals really like me and that’s pretty awesome.

Must Love Dogs

Dogs Are Sunshine For The Soul It Starts When We Are Young When we are young they are often our first time in learning responsibility. We grow with them and they may be our first experience with death. As we get older the role often changes but is no less important. For some it's our children's best friend as we watch the cycle unfold for them. Dogs Fit In So Many Places In Our Heart We may choose to be pet parents rather then have children our selves. And in some cases we experience all of these scenarios. I would say that my dogs have played a major role in my life, I dare say as important as my spouse or kids. When I was young my beagle mix named Flash Gordon was a bright spot in a dark childhood. My Dogs Have Me Comfort Nothing Else Could Later when I was on my own a pappillion named Sidney was my bff. That dog would do anything to be near me and was fiercely protective of my oldest kids. He lost his life while I was in military training school and he was outside and a coyote got into the yard. It was a terrible blow to my soul because I always felt if I was home he wouldn't have been outside by himself long enough to be hunted. We May Be Lucky Enough To Know Several Dogs Later I was blessed with a chocolate Labrador named Molly. By that time I had 7 children and my hands full. She was full grown and pregnant when we got her. Her previous owners wanted to get rid of her because although she was purebred her puppies would not be. #Dog #Mastiff #Mustlovedogs Read the full article
