It is funny to me how much arguing there was between people trying to speculate on Ryoko Kui’s sexuality and people saying it’s literally none of our business. Then she uploads art where she draws a bunch of elves from video games and refers to multiple of the of the elven women as “her wife” or “fell in love at first sight”. And yet in a twitter thread about it I still saw people saying that referring to women as your wife could be straight woman behavior actually (???)

Does leopard still have 3 lives in her final battle? Or was that changed?
Yep. I think she drowned her once, then Leopardstar lunges up refreshed, and she gets the upper paw on Mistyfoot with 2 lives to go.
(MAYBE tw gore, but I really did try to be tasteful about a head being smashed on a rock.)
On her back, splashing and thrashing furiously against Leopardstar's claws dunking her head under, Mistyfoot glimpses a wave breaking just over the tip of a stone-blue rock. Her only chance.
With a surge of power, her claws sink into her leader's golden shoulder and they tumble and roll to the right. Before the tyrant even realizes what's happening, she's yanked up, and then whipped backwards with a wet CRUNCH
And then again
And again
And again, until Mistyfoot can't even make out what's left of her leader anymore. All she can see is that it's a red, brown, and yellow blur, because her eyes burning with salty tears and her whole body is trembling.
She drops the corpse onto the stone and it slides into the water, lifelessly. After a moment it spasms aimlessly one last time, like an insect does after its head is bitten off, unlike the deliberate, agonized throes of Tigerstar suffering through his doomed lives. And then it's still.
There's only the tranquil sound of bubbling water, and Mistyfoot's frenzied panting. Her pounding heart makes it hard to hear either.
The blood is carried off by the shallow water in scarlet swirls, but the lake runs pale red as if it's washing it away. Some were aware of this prophecy, but Mistyfoot was not.
It isn't closure to her, or a fulfillment of divine decree. It's just blood that should be on her paws, slicked away by the complicit river. She wished it could feel like it's over, but she's smart enough to know the truth. Has been through enough terrible events like this to understand what comes next.
Her body will move foward. Her mind will need to consider her deputy. Her paw will come down on code-defying cats like Blackclaw and Greenflower. But her heart will stay here, next to the remains of Leopardstar, the same way another piece of it remains at Stonefur's side across space and time.

making hera manage a space station is inhumane. she's supposed to be creating unmarketable art. post-canon hera makes like fifteen dollars a month off niche experimental multimedia poetry zines, eiffel is begging people to listen to his music on bandcamp (between an assortment of jobs that would be perfectly fine, if he could hold any of them for longer than two months), and they are both so, so lucky minkowski cares about them so much.

taxian-jun is so wild...he's a cursed tyrant. he's a retired guy competing with a dog for his husband's attention. he's a mass murderer (reformed). he calls his garden his harem. he's egotistical and overconfident. he decides to become the valley's best farmer because he lost one (1) livestock show that he entered randomly. he's the vengeful immortal emperor of a past life. he resorts to purposefully disorganizing mo-zongshi's qiankun bag so he can't find anything on his days. he mastered the forbidden techniques in secret to deploy an empire. he's diligently studying the postpartum care of sows. a girl lied about him getting her pregnant so he offered to take responsibility by kicking her in the stomach. he is a househusband.

my oldest friend from canada visited me here for a couple weeks earlier in the month and it was her first time outside of north america and she wanted to see the place i'm from that she's heard so much about all our lives and she was telling me that all the white people she knows (she's also white) were confused when she told them she's going to malaysia they were like "why are you going there? what even is there lol" and they had no idea where it even is, but whenever she told asians she was going to malaysia the reaction was one of excitement and celebration. and she was really nervous travelling so far and when she was here she was quiet a lot just taking everything in, and asking me questions about everything, history and culture and my family etc and i answered as much as i could, and after she left she told me she understands why i care so much for this place, why it matters to me, because it matters to her now too, and she feels sad because she misses it already, and that she wants to come back some day. and that meant so much to me, and i feel very lucky to have her as my friend. that she took this so seriously and to heart and that she understands in a very real sense why i miss it so much when i'm in canada, and to feel known and understood in a greater way by her. i love her very much
