#and get into a big body of water

[carnivalcarriondiscarded]

Was Frank present when Eddie got dropped in the water? Bc that sounds goddamn hilarious.

no but Wally had to go over to him like "um. Frank. i dropped Eddie-" "you what" "-in the water. i dropped him in the water" "you WHAT?" and then they went to the Lake™️ to just. stare at his facedown unconscious body.

#then they sprinted to get poppy bc she has the longest reach of all of them- #listen wally was bringing everyone back to the storeroom after the latest Sally Storytime #and he just kinda slipped!!! oopsies!!! it happens!!! #but wally is immediately in a bit of a Panic Mode since he understands that water damage exists #then they had to get howdy from wherever he was so that he could help pull poppy as she pulled eddie #big ol train of dragging eddie's soaking wet corpse- i mean Alive Body out of the water #rambles from the bog #wh lights out au #im enjoying imagining frank just staring down at eddie with a mix of exasperation disappointment and pain #while wally stands behind him trying to act So Normal and not at all Guilty or Nervous #and then frank starts to go down to get him and wally has to physically stop him from making That mistake

going to Pride for the first time today!!

#i am Scared Shitless tbh because it was always fearmongered as being part of sodom and Gomorrah #but I’ve wanted to see one for years #so I guess I’d better get up and get ready #I am hoping so hard that my body keeps its shit together the whole time #i am going to POUND water and salt for the next two hours #and being an extra knee brace and back brace in my backpack I think #listen between Pedialyte in my water bottle and sunscreen on me and a big hat and the TENS unit I keep in my bag #i should be fine

"health is the most important thing" they'll say and then get mad at you for relying on medication

#chronic illness #mental illness #look i understand big pharma is a nightmare #i understand that medications have side effects #i understand that overprescribing certain drugs has had negative impacts on public health in many different ways #but im not gonna apologize for prioritizing the more urgent parts of my health #it's such an able-bodied thing to get mad about #i can't pilates-lemon water-deep breathe my way out of an autoimmune disorder babes

The problem with starting to think about the Pack more is the fact that now I want to grab Skalamander the same way I grabbed Bobo like. My house now. I want to use your character potential.

#Generator rex #genrex #Just. Ough. OUGH. #Bobo was just a bad use of his potential but Skalamander is just a nothing use of his potential. Very little character there. #But looking at his design I just. Cannot get the question out of my head of 'Is it painful?' #Is he an EVO who lives in constant pain? We see that he can't stop drooling and is blind on one 'side' of his head. #And his tongue flops around when he has his mouth open. His skin stretches and sags in awkward places #It makes me think that he probably lives a pain-filled life and has probably got a wrecked mind bc of it. And then follows VK #Someone who looks at him and says You are not broken. I have use of you. I have salvation. #And with the disability symbolism with Genrex Skalamander also looks the most chronic pain having #Though granted most EVOs with significant body changes probably have chronic pain #I just. Head in hands. Fucked up lizard. How much of his mind is actually still there. #Do you think he has good days and bad days. Bad days where he can't move or days where his mind is more of a mess than usual. #He definitely has to struggle to eat and drink. With no other mouth. #Thinking also in context of Rex Pack AU of like. Skalamander having his bad days and having people who actually care about him #Doing the best they can to help. Bringing him food and water with specially designed straws and utensils #Sitting and talking to him on days his mind isn't fully there so at least he's not alone. Giving him space if he needs it #But making sure to keep a close eye on absolutely anything he needs. #Bc they're one big disabled family and they take care of each other

someone needs to tell hollywood that six packs are so overrated and ‘dad bods’ are the better body type

#random emma thoughts #enough with the superhero bodies for everyone #they’re unhealthy as fuck #i for one do not wanna see every damn muscle a man can have #i love big cuddly men #everytime i see a man muscly as hell all i can think about is how dehydrated he must be #get that man some water

Consciousness is alluring. The truth and the core self are like a lover undressed; you know only you will see them this way, and that when the world looks on they will see creases in fabric and face, a friend, an option. But you, when you trace your hands upon that true reflection, will know the rawness of skin and the taste of flesh that will linger through every moment you are away, and your internal eyes will forever be imprinted with their sweet perfume that only you know they wear in bed.

#necessary context that this is nondualist concept shiva and not person/deity/power of nature shiva #there are many shivas in my work. sorry for the confusion. #spiritual art #symbol: shiva #there are too many symbols in this to tag #symbol: plants #youre getting a catch all tag bc im not tagging every plant i ever use in art. its jasmine and angels trumpet here #green sections of the border are collectively. to summarise. raw organic fertility and the physical world and body #and then the red parts are sexuality and the mental world. both are about receptivity and activity and the union of both #gold ring is the ring around a black hole. the dancing lights of the external appearance (mental material and everything in between) #and the allure of impermanent reality emanating from the black unknown of Truth #anyway. thats the main stuff. other stuff like waters of the mind implying reflecting on a surface and uhhhh blue of the hair being #the waters flowing outwards are kinda... the last big things before the rest goes into subjective stuff #like the rain and water cycle references

i honestly don't think anyone will care but I keep brainrotting over the idea of a pjo/rainworld au

I've turned the Seven into funky slimy cats dealing w concepts far beyond their comprehensions lmao

#my brainrots have mutated more than 5p's structure send help 💀 #i present you: slugcat au where the gods are iterators #(names + abilities pending) #the big 3 kids are purposed organisms and the rest “natural” slugcats #Frank (The Juggernaut) is the chief of the clan and has to deal with these random ahh weirdos (the 3) rocking up #he's honeslty like Gourmand with less cooking skills and more endurance lmao- just a muscle powerhouse fit into a slimy rodent body #Jason (The Turbine)'s retired from being a Messenger and has no clue what to do with his life now (he becomes a scholar later on) #he's a centipede/wing hybrid and can electrocute anything he grabs given enough pips + can double jump (to handle Pipeyard lol pray for him #Percy (The Navigator) wonders off to explore since his creator didn't really HAVE plans for him other than occasional missions #he's honestly just colour swapped Rivulet with less spear skills (but can aim and throw them really well under water) #Hazel (The Martyr/Apostate) pulling a power move and refusing to die lol #she escaped the void & probably does everything to keep herself bound to the cycle in fear of getting dragged back #she doesn't have anything really special that i can think of other than actually dealing damage with debris and being able to wall climb #Annabeth (The Weaver) as lookout for ancient research and really good at building ladders/utilising the landscape. the most basic scug tbh #she can also take spears off of walls p easily and probably has a grapple worm friend #Piper (The Mimic/Paradigm? names r hard) being able to copy plant toxins/abilities. does most damage up close & is mostly a herbivore #like eating sporepuffs for a smokescreen. cherrybombs to scare off/stun into unconsciousness. lilypucks/slime mold to glow and etc #Leo (The Artillerist) as a scrawny little guy with explosives. fast but physically weak. he has to rely on his int and makes the clans tool #basically Arti/Monk mix without double jump but able to reassemble Iterator parts (jesus i had to Work to not accidentally copy her design) #Festus is a lizard!! he's probably a stupidly big Yellow and is our beloved. he got saved by Artillerist and followed him ever since :) #alternatively: an au where Leo just ends up in rw and insults 5p (who is confused on how an ancient survived and why he's Like That) #pjo #rain world

Hi, I love your original character Ahti II very much he has such a cool design. Does he live in fresh or salt water?

Thank you very much!! Ahti II is very special to me :D

Funny story, he is a brackish water dweller! His home is the Baltic Sea, which on average has a salinity of about 7‰ or 0,7%. By contrast, oceans on average have 35‰ or 3,5%! The salt content of the water is even lower the further you go from the ocean, and Ahtola, Ahti II's home city (and the capital of his country) is located pretty deep in the Baltic, it's somewhere between Sweden and Finland and south of Åland. There isn't very much salt ^^'

As he is away from home a lot as a teen (learning to be like the average person and whatnot) he enjoys the joys of swimming in pure freshwater too, in Finnish Lakeland in the summer!

#merfolk's bodies are more flexible than fishes' when it comes to salinity changes. ahti II could even manage swimming in saltwater #of course theres a limit to how much salt the human body can handle but a real pike would probably dehydrate to death in saltwater you know #it takes some acclimating to get used to waters with salinity you arent accustomed to though! #jumping into saltwater cold turkey at the beach would leave a freshwater merm ill and vice versa #beaches often have small pools (well. big enough for a long tail) that let you get adjusted if youre not from around there #im going to write this down somewhere in a comprehensive little post eventually haha #asks #anon #anonymous #anonymous asks #merfolk #ahti II

There's an analysis to be made about the LL series and how the writers design characters you're meant to hate, and how the way they're designed indicates the type of role they're meant to play and whether you're supposed to hate them but realize their nuance as interesting characters or smash their head down a pike

#thinking primarily about caleb's brothers and how they're like a watered down ian4 mark james #but they kept certain elements from mark's introductory writing that made him an ass and a wimp in the first place #and those key traits are similar with a lot of other 'easy and annoying' bully characters meant to bolster another character #by being easy to beat or mess around with #and of course sometimes those traits end up leaning on one or more of three things #being a fat character or otherwise someone with a body type associated with laziness or clumsiness or letting themselves go #character with a big head who's looking for a fight but cowers quickly and easily #generic bully with easy-to-anger remarks whose relevance in the story ends when they get beaten up by the good guys #and very few of these characters are protrayed as smart or careful about their tactics. most just go for the moment like a hothead #is that a bad thing?? idk maybe I'm going nowhere with this but #something something some form of 'other' used to differentiate good guys from bad and it's always intellience or looks or emotional maturit #ernest talks

there's nothing i want more right now than to be able to just go sit by a large body of water right now and stick my feet in.... I think it would make everything feel calmer.

#but NOW. end of march we've got snow so much snow #i can't even go to the park i like to hike in and hang out bc there's so much snow... #don't even feel like driving to the grocery store ugh #i just have a lot happening right now and i think just the peacefulness of a large body of water would make things feel clearer n better #i get why people go and sit by the ocean when they're going thru it in their life #nothing like the waves and the little critters and birds and dirt to make you forget even just for a moment #about all the things on your mind #i think also just a nice walk in the woods just. walk off into the trees for a while would help. #which i also can't do because not only is there a lot of snow it's the SLOPPY shit so like #miserable awfully wet hiking experience #big sigh #personal stuff

I always forget how people back in the olde days used to just die so easily from the flu, until I get the flu myself dhhdhdhf because on one hand I know our medicine is just soo much better now a days but on the other hand I have the immune system of a dead man and once I get sick I'm like the ye olde victorian child on a death bed dhdhdhhd it's been 4 days and I just NOW can get on my phone to watch videos and text, and eat and drink water, and coherently string words together and do more than just lay in bed and moan in pain, and sweat and cough in sick delirium 😭

#im being so deadass #i only slept once between just staring at whatever i was hallucinating on the ceiling and that was last night #and i dreamt that i was eating glass #i know its because ive hurt my stomach and ribs from so much coughing because i can barely talk #at least in my dream i was picky about the glass i was eating LMAOOO i was like NO I WANT THE BUBBLE AMBER DRINKING GLASS NOM NOM #and raided a flea market just to find it and eat it #i dont fucking know #i finally ate some chicken noodle soup and apple sauce too and ive finally had some wonderful and amazing water #i swear i never enjoyed it more in my LIFE #i hate being sick because i get so sick so easily and soo soo so bad #fucking rough man #i had no idea it was Saturday until i just checked #fucking was Tuesday last I remembered god damnit #also its really scary looking in the mirror because I dont look well or look like myself right now #body image warning #but my face looks so hallow and dark and scratched up because apparently I either was scratching in my sleep or something happened #and I'm soo much thinner than the last time I looked in a mirror and got out of bed like 4 days ago #my beard is big and shaggy and i need to shave but i really really don't look good and its hard to do any self care #when you go from looking healthy and glowy to pale and dark and thin in just a couple days #like fuuuuuuuuuuuuuck that #im caught in a state of #this isn't reality #which i know isnt safe or good but ill be okay because i know im just in shock and that i cant push myself through it #especially in this weakened state #i just need to take it slow and steady #drink my water stay in my blanket and eat what i can and take my meds and thank FUCK I came through the fog and rest

tentatively scheduled park time for myself and will now attempt to force happiness back into my bones over the weekend

#feel real guilty about not getting a project done In Time bc of my work nonsense #but my partner reminded me that im allowed to let my shitty job fail! so i will work on doing that next week for my sanity's sake #cassy bitches #and also if i manage park time then i will be Allowed Near a Big Body of Water. which will cure me

You know, I was never a fan of using fear as a tool to teach important life lessons

But maybe we could've used a little more of that when teaching people to brush their teeth-- like I do not care about having unobtainably white teeth at all. And all the reasons people give seem either Superficial/Cosmetic or Very Far Away

Tell me I will be in pain NOW if I don't brush my teeth-- saying it'll happen in the long term is the understatement of the century, by the time I was 14 I had 15 cavities. They were so Intensely painful anytime I ate something Cold or Sweet, and even brushing my tongue over them hurt if I had leftover sugar in my saliva. It impacted my life, which, judging by my inability to maintain my dental hygiene, you can probably infer was already Pretty Bad at the time.

Tldr

You will suffer the effects of poor dental hygiene way sooner than you think

#bad #like when i was younger i wasn't planning on living very long and so the idea of Not Having Teeth or having teeth when i was older #just Wasn't Applicable to me! #but things have changed now and i have maNy fillings and a cap and a root canal #my dentists are friendly but they're pretty concerned with the rate at which my mouth is just being Eaten Up #literally anything is better than nothing btw ask any dentist they will tell you that #brush with water. don't floss if you can't. fuck it swish water in your mouth and eat an apple Literally Anything to help get the bad shit #off your teeth #and stop letting sugar sit in your mouth. drink soda through a straw and stay hydrated #saliva plays a big part in keeping your mouth clean and your body has a hard time producing that if there's no water in you

i have never understood the fear of large bodies of water/wide open spaces until i got to the water portion of the game Inside and now im trembling like a little baby

#in real life? I LOVE swimming in big bodies of water I’ve done it so much #but the thing is in real life nothing is trying to get me #in this fucking game? scary ring girl wants to get me so bad #and she has #I can’t beat this level im horrible at video games
