Okay, I was going to explain a possible path for a worm of the string au with Sparrow complaining one day that the puppet can't leave the chamber to relive the fever of being in one place and that her thesis being rejected and then Caper reading the thesis and iterating that idea and then he somehow manages to get off the string.

But getting off the umbilical without reason or explanation is more funny!

Imagine if that starts happening to the others iterators?

Pls tell me his face is priceless! More so if it is a red lizard (do train lizard exist in your au?)

Also, how would Notos and Haboob react to Sparrow?

Now, you mentioned that when Sparrow killed the red centipede she was not in the respawning cycle. What is the age that the Ancients enter the cycle?

staring like a deer caught in headlights GSDLKMCLK this man should either have internal bleeding from a Red Liz bite or bad damage in the coconut and Yet he's 👌 how puzzling n yah! train/hurricane lizards Are real in the Serotonin Take!

as for Notos n Haboob, assuming it's in the off string post-ascension thing too:

they'd like each other! :D

and the respawn cycle is entered once the etheric body is finished growing which is around like.... 20-23 years old

#Spot says stuff #rain world #rw #oc tag #// gun // #oc: boreas' blessing #oc: three sparrows #oc: biting notos #oc: inhale in haboob #for lil added context the idea is that BB saved Sparru from the green liz actually. and then went on a tirade bout how she should go Die #oh boreas you are so sensible and know exactly what you want from people </3 #post-mass ascension off string with sparrows is fun cuz. shes fuckin Alone in the whole world. n the iterators have been hurt by the- #-ancients leaving so its a whole mish mash.. on one hand boreas recognizes her as his lil sister. on the other hes too angry n bitter to- #-face that familial tie rn. yea he was glad when the ancients left cuz no more vemon injections! but everythin became so much harder #not to mention other not self-sufficient iterators are on thin ice from then on. he also doesnt want euros to see her again cuz like... #what if the poor kid will have to go through the pain of losing her to old age again thats horrible. so the worry n protectiveness is back

I mentioned this briefly yesterday but basically my mom lost her little purse while walking the dogs and we’ve looked everywhere in our neighborhood and someone definitely took it bc it’s nowhere to be found. We have no way to track the location of anything in it bc she still has her phone, but the purse contained literally everything else we had. All of our money and all of my mom’s cards and important items were in it and now we have absolutely nothing. So if anyone could help us out so we can pay for food and bills and stuff while we sort this out it would really be SO appreciated like we’re just completely screwed rn 😭 Anything any of you could spare would really help us so much like we’re currently just penniless with no backup plan or anything and we used the rest of the little food we had to make dinner tonight and now we have nothing left

My Cashapp, PayPal, and Venmo are all karmabauer

#I hate that I keep having to do this but yeah we rlly need the help rn #and I’m currently busy with therapy and everything bc I finally got mental health treatment again #after struggling to get into any programs for so long #and my therapist and case worker both want me to get myself to a point where I’m much more mentally stable #before they help me get back in the workforce #which I agree with them on bc the last few jobs I’ve had have ended rlly badly bc of how badly I was doing mentally #but it’s rlly stressful that I haven’t been able to get a new source of income for so long #I’m making a lot of progress tho so soon I’ll def be able to be more self sufficient #and idk I just rlly appreciate those of you who’ve helped me during this time #and anyone who may decide to help now #love y’all sm genuinely 😭 u guys are really so kind and make me feel so much hope idk :’) 💖

Absolute hate how all Oda has to do is make one (1) fictional man with pretty hair to give me raging gender envy

Like this was so unnecessary and cruel, towards me specifically

#Moon posting #OP Meta #Think I'm just annoyed because One Piece doesn't really have very Gender characters **for me** specifically #'Cause most of the characters are either built like shit brick houses or have horrendous fashion senses #Which also applies to King. He is a Fucking Unit and his gimp suit looks horrendous #But you take off his stupid mask and let his pretty hair out and oh no he looks like he looks like a metalhead oh no that's kinda gender #(Like at most there was Sanji Sometimes because he's sufficiently twinkish and I like some of his suits.) #(And look I love him and his stupid self-loathing self-sacrificing ass but also I need to smack the shit out of Sanji and throw him in jail #(Do not let me get started on Hawkins very specifically in his fight against Killer because jesus christ) #(Toei did not have to go that hard on making Hawkins' hair look THAT FUCKING GOOD in that fight) (Dying of jealousy) #(I just want to have pretty long hair (but in a masc way) is that too much for me to ask) #((Feeling down and desperately need some serotonin so I picked up Wano again.

ok found The Tornado by owl city and it finally kicked me into finally fleshing out the little idea i had originally from Ao E Mukau-

Its a storm world constantly covered by thick clouds, ruins of towns and cities no longer used as the old societies broke down- Giyuu and Sabito were born on the knife's edge of that collapse before the constant deadly storms made living like they were nearly impossible

one of the worst thunder storms in decades ripped through a large swath of area; Giyuu & Tsutako's parents getting killed while Sabito's mother and little brother were killed hours later when it passed over them, they both continued on with what family they had left for a few years, just trying to get enough money for food on the table and a house over their heads

when they were 13 a massive, absolutely devestating tornado hit the town Sabito lived in in the middle of the night- he was making a quick trip to the store for midnight snacks and ended up dragging his bike into a little culvert under a road with him, it mostly protected one side but when it started getting really bad some small debris started flying through and one jaggedly cut across his cheek before he curled up to wait it out. Hours later when day shouldve broke & the storm had calmed, he crawled out to finally see the total destruction of the place he called home- there was almost nothing left. His heart broke as he realized just how lucky he is to be alive, and how his dad and little sister weren't. He ran into a group of survivors and got his cheek patched up by some of the medical professionals who stepped up to check everyone over; months later an earthquake hit the city Giyuu & Tsutako lived in, she had shoved a screaming Giyuu in the only little saftey box they had and Giyuu survived falling & getting violently tossed around when the building collapsed- he was stuck in it for a day or so, crying and screaming to be let out and for his sister to be okay, before search and rescue teams found him and pried it open. they thought he was dead at first before he woke up and started crying again when he saw the damage to the area, they treated the cut on his forhead and he ran away before they could put him in an orphanage with the other only-survivor kids

#loserboy giyuu posting #neros art tag #sabito #giyuu #kny sabito #tomioka giyuu #tw claustrophobia #tw buried alive #giyuu probably does get claustrophobia after that.... #poor boy :( #downfall au #their storms were the start of the super-storms & natural disater events getting much more frequent- people stopped rebuilding big #city stuff like that just for it to topple over/get damaged during construction- #they grouped up into flocks of people with similar interests like researchers/educators- first-aid/medical/search&rescue- etc- #Urokodaki was born in a family that already lived a pretty secluded self-sufficient lifestyle so by the time things got that bad he was #already taking in stray kids & loners and teaching them how to do stuff on their own #he forcibly adopted sabito when he found him trying to survive on his own & like a week after that earthquake he took giyuu in after findin #him severely malnourished passed out on the forest floor #giyuu woke up feelin nice and cozy with someone gently running their hand through his hair only to break down again when he realized it #wasnt his sister because that shit wasnt just a nightmare- #Urokodaki dealing w 2 more traumatized kids what will he do #oh!! also!! the kasugi crows! theyre just normal crows that they befriended that do lil tasks and favors for them #giyuu fucking Loves kanzaburo he spoils the everloving shit out of that crow & the other crows r so jealous #a crow took a liking to sabito and he named them shide- theyre a snappy little fucker sometimes and other times they just wanna play w him #and hes very fond of shide even if he denies it whenever hes bandaging his fingers from them biting him #ough i wanna draw them w their crows now..... #i need adult designs for them i dont actually have anything yet

[a-god-in-ruins-rises]

my answer would be the same and for many of the same reasons

#superior culture/mindset/ethos #i mean speaking as an outsider #that's why i wanted to join the usmc above all other branches #in my mind they had more of a warrior spirit and a do-more-with-less attitude #every marine a rifleman was something i really admired #and just in general it seems to be an extremely self-sufficient and adaptable branch #probably largely owing to its amphibious nature -- it is inherently versatile #and i have been obsessed with the marine expeditionary units since i was a kid #and i think they probably give them a logistical edge over the other branches #coordinating land air and naval units across the world has to develop some major institutional wisdom #but again i'm speaking as an outsider and would be open to other perspectives #i mean the usmc already integrates air land and sea by design #so it would only make the most sense

[firstroseofspring]

dishonored myself tonight. badly. (bug in front of my door (huge, gigantic wings) flying directly by the handle (i cowered and screamed. loudly. (took several steps backward)) and waited several minutes for it to leave (shook as i tried desperately to get the door open)) and once i got inside i sighed audibly. (relief.)

#diary #it was so big and black and it had huge eyes and they glowed. and it had wings did i mention the flying. #it was self-sufficient too i saw it land on its back and push itself rightside up again but then it started flying again so my memory's #a bit hazy from the panic.

[threadbaresweater]

There is a slim to none chance of me ever getting pregnant again (tubal ligation) but every time my period is late, I always think what if I'm that .00001% ? What if I am? Then what?

#i am 42 years old and all my kids are self sufficient now. i could absolutely not do the baby thing again. no way. #also I'm officially a week late. maybe its perimenopause. maybe I'm just late. i hate this SO MUCH #cw pregnancy

[hussyknee]

Note to self: a large meal is a very effective sedative for hyperactive cats.

#not something i can do regularly obviously #but Mau was driving me up the wall ever since I brought them inside and closed the windows for the evening #he feels it's his god-given right to gallivant after dark even though i keep dragging his ass inside after every jail break #and he freaks out after 20 mins alone in the garden anyway #Moo also disgraced himself by throwing up his lunch all over my room‚ escaping while I was cleaning #and then finding himself stuck up another fencepost on the perimeter wall and mewling pathetically for me to rescue him #i went back to the house to fetch a ladder again only to find monsieur dragging his sorry butt up the steps behind me after all #maybe I do coddle them a bit too much #since keeping them inside all day is a flat impossibility in this house #they should have some degree of self-sufficiency so their fool asses can come home if they do prowl #i'm hoping that keeping them near home long enough will discourage them wandering too far even if they do go beyond the perimeter #for all dogs were exhausting i never had to worry about this shit with them #just close a door and a gate and boom. problem solved #cats though. fuckin Houdini-ass mfers #knee of huss #Méka Mau Moo #cat mom problems

[queerlyglittering]

everything is fake, nothing matters, i will and should be alone for the rest of my life. what is the fucking point

#personal #ignore me #i have no friends #my family can't fucking stand me #my ex boyfriend said he wanted to still.be my friend and then fucking ghosted ne #my supervisors at work are constantly micromanaging me and nitpicking at shit to find reasons to.get me into trouble #and now on top of all that bullshit ive got fucking food poisoning #i will never be stable. i will never be secure. i will never be out of debt. i will never go to school. #i will never learn to drive. i will never create anything. #i will never be loved. i will never be surrounded by people who are like me and who accept me #i will never have community #i will never be independent or self sufficient. i will never be able to live alone. i will.never escape this place. #all that living is doing is prolonging the inevitable #and it's not even worth it. it will never be worth it. #just let me die. #let me go to sleep tonight and never wake up again. #i am tired.

[tyrianlynch]

Sigh. You guys. I’m feeling rather trapped. Like a 16 year old girl stuck atop a mountain with no way of getting down.

#to be clear when I was 16 I lived on top of a mountain and didn’t know how to drive so I couldn’t get down #unless I like asked my mom #but I’m staying with my aunts in the suburbs for a few nights while my roommate is out of town #bc she took the dog and if I have no roommate and no dog I will not sleep bc the murderers will come #but I still don’t know how to drive and there’s no fucking public transportation out here #and like if I was home I don’t think I’d be hopping on the bud and going somewhere #but the fact that I could makes all the difference #and it’s just bringing up all this cptsd stuff from when I lived on top of the mountain with no way down #I swore I’d never be trapped like that again #and ya ya I can get an Uber I can leave if I choose but that’s still relying on someone yknow? #I like being self sufficient and knowing that I can stand up and go across the city all by myself #and being here just makes me feel like a teenager who has to make a whole presentation to convince my mom to take me into town #and I don’t like feeling like that person bc that person is all tied up in the trauma #whatever I’ll feel better in the morning and I’ll delete this post I just feel very afraid rn

Iron Man (1968) #61

#normally the robot comparisons are used to accuse him of being unemotional #so Tony being flattered by being compared to a robot based on the metric that he’s essentially perpetually functioning stands out to me #particularly in contrast with how often his human body being ill stops him in his tracks #and reduces him- even while in the Iron Man armor- to crawling on the ground to an electrical outlet #he’s dependent on that outside source to make him function again and so isn’t self-sufficient #which is a real issue for Tony because of his need to just be a man (with all the baggage that concept has) but a man made of iron #i.e. invincible #i.e. not ever vulnerable like that #marvel #tony stark #my posts #comic panels
