#Random Lynda Rambles

[trainerlynda]

Intro

Hello, I guess I should tell you about myself?

I'm Lynda! I'm 35 years old and bigender, going by she/her he/him.

Born the 31st of January.

I research legendary pokemon in my off time, chasing legends and rumors about new ones. I find them very fascinating!

//Current Arc: none at the moment!

//Finished Arc: Fool's Faller

My main team is

Espeon (He/Him).

Raichu (She/Her).

Charizard (pretty sure he's a clone 'zard...) (He/Him).

Sceptile (He/Him).

Greninja (He/They. Demi boy).

Hydreigon (She/Her)!

As for my champ team? You'll need to challenge me to find out~

I also have a Giratina named Oblivion (He/They/It).

I like calling him Blivie. I don't really use him in battle or keep him in his ball, but I can call on him when I need to. He has his own account! @oblivionthegiratina.

I'm married to @silveredfeathers, so no funny business, got it? Really not into flirty banter unless you're him... or @timetravelerpyrite, recently a boyfriend.

I guess I should put this here now since its out now...

The link above will tell you what I am.

Sometimes members of my team will steal my phone so-

⚡: Sparky (She also likes using Yellow for her text.)

🐱: Espie (He likes using Purple for his text (He doesn't like pink))

🦎: Riptor (He likes using Green for his text.

//Mini events that have happened/are happening.

//Shadow Creatures (A mini takeover event)

//Extra info under the cut.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

//Ooc. This is a sideblog! Unreality. Mod is an adult and goes by the same pronouns. All art I use is my own! I follow from @theshadowqueenofthedistortion ... Here's some of my other accounts as well!

//Link to her trainer card!

//Semi-Serious blog, I will participate in active silliness and also write serious stuff. Will sometimes touch on death, abuse and a few other things, I will tag the serious stuff with their appropriate tw/cw tags.

//No magic anons, Lyn has been through enough and I personally don't like them.

//I will not ship with anyone who isn't my BF (and myself, but that's a note for later), just for my comfort. Lyn's universe is a mix of pokemon and abunch of other things, if she goes to hang out with someone he'll likely go there with a portal.

//I am very open to crossover stuff! My character in herself is rather crossovery and his universe has dimensional travel, her world is separate from others and Giratina like screwing around with that (Palkia? Whos that? /j)

//Pokemon in his universe have human levels of sentience, however she is aware of places that have Pokemon that aren't sentient, so he won't find that odd.

//Real life animals exist along side Pokemon in her universe, like divergent evolution (not the pokemon thing, the science thing)

//I don't bite! (But my character might-)

//What the tags mean.

//Shadow Mod Speaks: Mod speaking.

Random Lynda Rambles: Lynda just saying random things, non serious tag, silliness encouraged.

//It is now Lyn Chats.

Lore Crumbs: Me sprinkling little tasty crumbs as a treat (Lynda info).

//Not used much anymore

//Mod Reference: Me and/or Zorana making references for Lyn and/or Silver.

//Shadow Art: Art by me that isn't a ref/finished.

Shifting Explorer: Closed and/or serious RP. I will also use this tag when responding seriously to something.

Espie the Espeon: For ease of finding Espie's posts.

Sparky the Dancing Rai: For ease of finding Sparky's posts.

Riptor the Great Gecko: For ease of finding Riptor's posts.

Oblivion the Distorted: For ease of finding Oblivion's posts.

Icy Apathy (Daniel): Daniel posts

Whirlpool Emotions (Jade): Jade Posts

Shocking Chaos (Crackle): Crackle Posts

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

//To do: Make a important pokemon list, make a general info background thing for Lyn (like those wiki pages for celebrities), make a public ref sheet for Lyn and her Pokemon (4/7 done), write out a public history thing for Lynda and @silveredfeathers (With help from Zorana (Silver's mod), again like those dumb wikis), get the courage to talk to other people (ongoing) /lh

OKAY FOLLOW UP TO THIS POST: https://at.tumblr.com/kachowthunder/theres-a-lot-of-respect-for-lynda-in-the-weathers/fkqn2kzbywbd the whole proposal idea has me thinking- CAL WOULD BE ONE OF THOSE GUYS WHO WOULD PROPOSE AND HAVE THIS BIG SPEECH HE MADE LIKE WEEKS IN ADVANCE WITH HELP FROM THE WHOLE FAMILY- TEX WAS EVEN IN ON THIS- AND THEN FORGET EVERYTHING HE WROTE DOWN THE MOMENT HE SEES YOU STANDING IN FRONT OF HIM AND HE'S DOWN ON HIS KNEE. MAN FREEZES. HE'S IN SHOCK. HE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT TO THINK OR DO. SO HE BABBLES A LITTLE, TRYING TO REGAIN HIS THOUGHTS BUT EVERYTHING IS GOING BLANK AND HE THINKS HE FUCKED IT UP. BUT LIKE- BOBBY AND LIGHTING ARE LITTLE NOSEY PEOPLE AND DEF CAME ALONG WITH CAL BUT SECRETLY. LIKE, THEY'RE HIDING IN THE BUSHES TYPE OF DEAL. THEY'RE WATCHING AND SEEING HIM FUCK UP AND JUST- BOTH WONDERING HOW THEY CAN SAVE THIS. IT'S A STATE OF PANIC, IT'S A STATE OF EVERYTHING IS GOING WRONG WHAT CAN WE DO. BUT- BUT BUT. AS SOON AS ONE OF THEM WERE GOING TO SAY SOMETHING. CAL BEGAN TALKING. AND HE BEGAN JUST RAMBLING ON ABOUT RANDOM THINGS HE LOVED ABOUT HIS S/O AND HOW THEY MADE HIM SO HAPPY AND HOW HE WOULD BE THE LUCKIEST MAN IN THE WORLD IF THEY MARRIED HIM. AND LIKE- THEY WERE SHOCKED B/C HE WENT COMPLETELY OFF SCRIPT BUT SO PROUD AT THE SAME TIME. DEF TEXTED LIKE STRIP, LYNDA, AND TEX TO KEEP THEM UPDATED. CAL PROBABLY SAID SOMETHING LIKE THIS: " I- uh... I'm.. sorry. I don't.. know how to do this. " Cal looked off to the side, nervous. It was visible in his eyes, in his rigid poster and his lightly trembling hands; hands in which were soon cupped over by the hands of the person standing in front of him. The person that he knew with all his heart that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with. He tried swallowing down his nerves, trying to go on for them. They deserved better than this.. and he needed to give them better. " Hun, I.. " He took a quick pause, trying to gather his words. You were being so patient with him, and he was so thankful for that. " I love you so'very'much.. I can't even describe it in words. You're the first thing I think'of when I wake up and my last thoughts when I go'to bed. When I have you by my side I feel like I can do everythin' and anythin' all at once without fear of judgement'or'failure. You.. make me a better man that I was before, and.. you make me feel like there's somethin' worth fightin' for in life. I.. I honestly had a whole speech prepared'an'ready, but I.. kind'of forgot it all when I saw your face. You just.. put a spell on'me that I don't understand but- not like, in a bad way. You just-..... I just don't know what words are right to'say right now.. and I don't think any words are right for a moment like this. " Cal paused, having to breath out shakily for a moment. He could feel your gentle glaze on him, listening to him like he was the only thing in the universe.. but he didn't expect to see you crying a little when he looked up. It shocked him a little, and he kind of felt bad.. " I.. no- don't cry. I'just.. I just wanted to ask you to marry me- " HE WAS SUCH A NERVOUS BOY THROUGHOUT IT ALL-

THIS- THIS HAS ME GIGGLING SO MUCH OMG THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT WOULD HAPPEN😭 POOR CAL. THE MAN DOESNT HAVE A SINGLE ROMANTIC PART IN HIS WHOLE BODY BUT MY GOD HE TRIES HIS BEST. THE “don’t cry I just wanted to ask if I can marry you” IS SINGLE HANDEDLY THE MOST CAL THING EVER

I CAN JUST IMAGINE WHEN LIGHTNING OR BOBBY TEXTS TEX, LYNDA AND STRIP ABOUT HOW CAL NEARLY FUCKED UP HIS MARRIAGE PROPOSAL, TEX NUDGES STRIP AND SAYS “You two have more in common than I thought”. IN THE FUTURE THEY WILL ALL LAUGH ABOUT IT BUT MAN POOR CAL WOULD BE AS BRIGHT AS A TOMATO WHEN THE REST FIND OUT HOW BAD IT WENT.

omg I just had a thought, what if Cal’s s/o has never been on a ranch before? What if the s/o is from a huge city and has never really seen what a genuine southern ranch looks like? What if the s/o is terrified of large animals like cows and horses? And what if Cal and the rest of the weathers (plus Tex) help them overcome their fears of them?😭

January 12, 2017

Today I slept in a little later than I would have liked.  But I also did not sleep in as late as I would have liked.  Such is life.

When I was up and ready I through my laundry in my car and headed to my Mom's house.  I only needed to do one load, thankfully, because I only had time for one.  After getting it started I went out and took down the Christmas lights.  It was in the teens temperature-wise outside but there's supposed to be an ice storm over the weekend, which sounds like a much worse time to take down Christmas lights.

Following the lights, I ate an early lunch and watched the last hour of Jeremiah Johnson.  I missed my two favorite parts, the guy being buried up to his neck and the guy being chased by the bear into the cabin.  I haven't seen the movie since I was a kid and now I think I need to watch the whole thing again.  I didn't remember all the montage fights.  I actually don't think I ever really knew what the story was, so it would probably be a good idea to watch it as an adult.  I also saw just the very beginning of Cliffhanger as I was folding my laundry.  I also have not seen that movie in years and had forgotten how tragic the opening sequence is.  Now I also want to watch that movie again.

When my laundry was done I packed up and headed to Target.  I thought I had plenty of time but apparently the perception of time is slower in Target.  I got the few things I needed, paid for it with a brief hiccup with self-checkout, and when I got back in my car and back on the road, it was like four or five minutes before I would normally leave my house for work.  Not good times.  I raced home, following the speed limit, put the groceries that needed to be refrigerated in the refrigerator, quickly changed into my work clothes, and headed out the door eleven minutes later than normal.

I ended up being almost ten minutes late.  It would have been a minute or two less than that but there weren't any parking spots along the street on my first pass so I had to go around the block.  I would like to work at a place with reserved parking spots.  Even if it's a crappy one I would at least know I always had one.

I spent the first hour and a half or so at work creating a survey for the video game discussion, the sign-in sheet, responded to a couple emails, and watched the cultural insight videos for Never Alone. I did that upstairs and when I came back down to the desk one of the other librarians was helping an older patron get audiobooks on his iPad.  She asked me to help out because it is a lot easier helping patrons when there is more than one person.  It gives you more time to think and one person can be talking to the patron while the other person looks something up.  I'm glad I got to help out because the patron was really funny.  When we started talking about the Hoopla app the other librarian said that she wasn't making any judgments but that older patrons usually really liked Hoopla because of its easy interface and the fact that you get the item immediately.  The patron paused for a moment and then said “I qualify, if that's what you're getting at,” obviously admitting he was old.  A little while later another patron came up and asked for a paperclip and the older patron looked over and said “Why couldn't I have that question?”  I also brought up Lynda.com when he mentioned basic computer classes and he shook his had saying his wife wouldn't want him to have Lynda on his computer.  In the end we were able to get the audiobook his wife wanted through Hoopla (there were wait lists on the other apps) and he was excited because he thought maybe that would make her happy and she would make him dinner.  And then he took it back and said she would probably be too busy listening to the book to cook.  Hopefully he comes back with more questions.

When I was finally on the desk it was another one of those overwhelming ones where I had a long list of emails to get to and ended up doing almost everything but that.  The thing that really got me was a patron interested in a particular DVD in a PBS series that we didn't seem to have.  For the life of me I couldn't figure out the system for how they were cataloged, which made it really hard to search for.  It got me a bit flustered, I'll admit it, and even after we were able to find the DVDs through interlibrary loan I wasn't really happy with the experience.

After dinner I came back, probably did some things, and then it was time for my video game discussion.  I got my laptop hooked up to the projector, got the sound system working, and then waited.  We ended up having four people show up and three of them were there for the majority of the time.  One was the husband of my coworker, another was the patron that calls all the time asking for books and phones number and other random things, and the third was an Anthropology student that is actually studying video games and Never Alone was one of the things that changed his focus from social work to anthropology.  The one patron and her friend were about fifteen minutes late and immediately left to go to the restroom after coming in and taking off their coats.  Little rude but I spoke with the two guys about a bunch of different video game related things.  It was kind of cool to actually talk with someone in real life about video games and have an actual have a discussion because they knew just as much, if not more, than I do.

We eventually got started without the one patrons friend, which is good because he didn't come back until the end.  I started with a couple of the cultural insight videos just to introduce the actual people being portrayed in the game.  And then we played the game. The one patron, who is older, had never played a video game before but we got her using the controller and the keyboard and she really seemed to enjoy it.  As we talked more about the game, and video games in general, she was really interested to learn that not all video games involve violence and inappropriate things.  She also checked out one of the books I set out on video games.  I didn't get a chance to read the surveys but they all told me they had a good time and would be interested in future discussions.  The Anthropology major said if we did it again he would talk to some of the other guys in the Anthropology department and get them to come along.  Sounds promising.  This is something I want to turn into a series, monthly would be preferable, so we'll see what I can do.

It is now getting late and I am going to end this so I can record my audio journal.  Hopefully I don't ramble as much tonight so I can get to bed before midnight.

[A video of a bunch of Eevees running around and playing, one in particular has a skull-esk pattern on their face, they seem to be the most excited to be running around and playing. A rather strange looking Espeon quickly chases after some of the Eevee in the background- said Espeon having the patterns of a Tuxedo cat- he catches one of the Eevee's by the scruff and the others squeal and scatter, the one Eevee with the skull pattern is standing up to the Espeon.] Espie and his kiddos are playing Lycanroc and Mareep. From what I can guess Esp is the Lycanroc and the little Vees are the Mareep. King is being a goofy cute leader of the flock

I keep forgetting that other universes don't have "The Owl House" they have "The Noctowl House" and that "Dungeons and Dragons" is really "Dungeons and Dragonites"

...

Don't mind me, I'm just a very confused dimension hopper.

Heatran - How well can you handle heat? How long can you stand being in uncomfortable conditions?

Uh hm... depends I guess?

I would say like... on a one to ten scale of handling heat I'm like... a 5? Aside from that I hate humidity, if it's too humid I will be in misery for however long I'm outside, but if it's really cold I can handle that for hours before I realize I can't feel my fingers anymore ha.
