Passing In The Night

From Gwyneth: I braved the weather in Nu Jyorck to visit the White Witch Shop, because I needed some herb cuttings and a little potion refill. Calendula, who runs that shop, does the most amazing things with flower oils; she’s at a much higher level than I am with potion-making, so I visit her when I need a little refill of Glamour-Aide. It comes in a gorgeous vial and fits around my neck, which…

I have a group of random questions I'm curious about so here they are.

Currently you have your cats, doves and enough plants for a jungle. Would you ever consider another pet or do you think your done for a long time?

Specifically would you consider a reptile or invertebrate? I'm a big reptile person myself which is why I ask.

You mentioned in a post having really bad adhd, how did you get through college? Any strategies or tips? I also have adhd and it's been making any sort of school a nightmare.

How old is your house?

Do you have a favorite season? Why?

I did foster kittens all summer and that was great, will probably do again. If Arson and Larceny ever move on to the great big birdhouse in the sky, I may get pigeons instead (or get licensed and see about falconry or rescue birds) and I would absolutely consider a dog someday. But right now Vice is not ready for another permanent resident, so...no more pets yet. I would LOVE a snake though. It's one of those things where they're not super compatible with cats and birds, though, so I'm holding off.

I got through college by deadline flooding, which is a thing where I pack my schedule so incredibly dense with activity that executive dysfunction results in instantaneous failure, which is Not An Option. It's not a...super healthy route? Basically it was just an exercise in pitting the executive dysfunction against the rejection sensitive dysphoria/fear of failure and seeing which came out on top. (spoiler: the insomnia won.) It did work. I have a huge box just full of academic honors and extracurricular stuff, and honestly I had a great time overall. But I don't think any therapist would recommend it.

My house is probably somewhere between 120-150 years old.

I like fall! It's crunchy and cool and all my favorite activities are there. Also I could thrive on a diet of 100% caramel apples.

we should bring back falconry as a popular respected profession. i want to see falcon handlers at the park scaring the shit out of dog walkers and people under 5'4.

man I've been listening to Guards! Guards! again, right. I was going to do Feet of Clay again but I wanted so badly to spend some time with Lady Sybil in her element, so I detoured over to the beginning. (Incidentally, Making-Money!Vetinari up against Guards!-Guards!Vetinari is one hell of a contrast. One gets the sincere impression that older Vetinari would wipe the floor with his younger self if they ever met, and then be painfully embarrassed afterward; and yet you can see the potential among the arrogance. I wrote this bit before I wrote a longer piece about that exchange, but I'll get round to linking it in here in a moment.)

But I wanted to discuss Sybil.

The first thing you have to understand about Sybil is that she is an archetype of a certain kind of autistic person, usually a woman (or a queer man). You find them in every kind of domestic animal fancy, although Sybil is of the class and rank that generally focuses on relatively large, expensive, and impractical animals; the dragon fancy is mostly based on the dog fancy, with strong influence from horse fancies and sometimes cat or falconry fancies. It is not a coincidence that Sybil is unmarried and that most of her time is spent with other women, often middle class or upper class women, who share her all consuming interest in dragons; this has been a really common social circle for autistics, especially autistic women with independent money, into a given animal fancy since the cultural concept of animal fancies existed.

The second thing you have to understand about Sybil is that she is not at all a conventionally attractive woman. Here are the things we learn about her as Vimes does, in order: she has inherited wealth and status that she does not particularly care about; she is large--taller than Vimes himself, or at least tall enough to loom over him--and "booms" confidently and incomprehensibly at him; and even after she takes off the heavy protective armor useful for conducting a dragon mating, she's tall and fat and (implied to be) heavily muscled under the fat. Her figure is compared to the Venus of Willendork, or perhaps an operatic Valkyrie, and she wears wigs because she is generally fairly bald, or at least singed. She's loud by nature. She wanders around with a dragon on her shoulder creating awful smells and occasionally dribbling.

God, I love her. Speaking as another erstwhile animal fancy autistic, she's really living the dream there. And this little Watch man shows up in her life, totally fails to understand what she's asking for when she tries to conscript him into the easy job for the breeding she's trying to facilitate, and then sits and asks her a bunch of pointed questions about her beloved dragons. He's weird in his own way and a little drunk, and he really is unfortunate enough not to have any dragons experience at all, but he sits down and he asks her questions and he listens to everything she can infodump at her with, as far as I can tell, rapt fascination.

This is not an experience Sybil Ramkin has frequently had. He doesn't try to escape or change the subject or draw her back to the pieces he cares about even a little bit. He's clearly dazed and confused and probably, knowing Vimes, a little bit drunk, but he's not even visibly discomfited enough to shove poor old Dewdrop Maybelline Talonthrust the First out of his lap. Sybil clearly knows that most people don't appreciate being drooled acid on, and tells Vimes repeatedly that he can shove the old man off, but he makes no effort to do so at any point. Given that dragons are described as having a quite pervasive smell, and given all the other details of their biology, I can't even begin to imagine how awful the old dragon must smell... and Vimes just sort of rolls with it.

(It's a pity Pterry didn't understand show names at all, of course; the ones we get should tell us something about the relationships among dragons and kennels, and the prefixes should be repeated, and whatever Sybil's own kennel name is should be present in many of the dragons she mentions. Probably it's either Talonthrust or Moonmist, but either way Goodboy Bindle Featherstone of Quirm is named entirely wrong. He's clearly of her own breeding, so he should have a kennel prefix or suffix that aligns with hers, not a name that has nothing in common with her other dragons and implies that his dam was bred by the duchess of Quirm rather than by Sybil herself.)

He listens and he listens and he asks questions and he goes down to the kennels to look at her pride and joy and listen to her explaining what makes each of them so nice. And then he brings her an incredibly exciting present. And he expresses interest in the sweet little whittle she's been trying to work out what to do with, who is totally not a breeding specimen but is too weird even for the sort of people who adopt dragons from the Sunshine Sanctuary. He doesn't even try to leave until the big dragon overhead causes a big stir, and then when she has him taken to her house to recover, she finds him reading her book about diseases of the dragons with every evidence of fascination.

Small wonder she takes notice of him, really.

No Place Like Home

From Lira: I really mean that. So far, only one of the places I’ve visited has felt like it could become home, and I can’t seem to get back to my original home (that little sojourn with the sky pirate notwithstanding). That was the Island of Callisto, where I met a really nice lady called Dinah and I got my first coffee for free because I rode the teacup ride eighteen times. Miss Dinah teaches…

do you have any hunters of artemis headcanons? like what do you think a day in the life is like for them? any customs or traditions? or any interesting ocs?

My primary headcanons for the Hunters are a.) Artemis' retinue in mythology has bird nymphs so. bird nymphs. bird nymphs are in there somewhere. and b.) I completely revamp the oath stuff and their dynamic in general because canon handles it extremely poorly, retcons it poorly, and I don't like the vibe.

The version I go with is that Hunters can be any age, species, gender identity, whatever, just as long as they're okay and comfortable that they will probably be referred to femininely a lot of the time. The Hunt is not just young women, and not even predominantly young women, it's a very diverse mix. And that the Hunt does not explicitly forbid relationships, it only forbids relationships if they are distracting and pose a danger to any hunters (i.e. don't be kissing in the line of fire of the arrows), and explicitly forbids having children while under the oath.

The reason for this being that Artemis is protector of youth, women, and a goddess of childbirth, and in her mythology usually the thing she gets pissed about is her Hunters hiding a baby from her - which makes sense! That's one of her aspects! It's kind of dangerous for a pregnant person to be running around in the woods with a bunch of hunting equipment, or to have an infant in that environment. So my interpretation is the specific thing she is getting upset about is her Hunters endangering themselves and/or a youth, cause that essentially spits in the face of what Artemis represents. If they wanna have a kid they're welcome to leave and come back once the kid is old enough (which is what I interpret Jo & Emmie's leaving the Hunt to be - they just wanted to raise a kid). Also there's myths that imply the Hunters may have relationships between themselves so I like to give room for that. And there's a good couple of myths about male Hunters of Artemis so I hate that canon just gives a blanket statement "no" on that one and is so weird about it.

I don't have many interesting ocs for them yet (I'm working on that - I have like fffffour? Hunter ocs right now I think? My goal is to make at least 10) besides thinking about bird nymph huntresses. And as for customs/daily routine, I haven't thought about it much. I mostly just presume training, hiking, camping stuff, following trails and etc, taking care of the wolves/dogs and hunting birds, all that jazz. I do think a lot about how they have hunting birds though and want the fandom to do more with that. Where's Thalia with a pet falconry eagle.

Hackett A/W 23 with Matthew Goode - Part 4 gifs

A wee goode swagger (hand in pocket of course) and some puppy love (observing Matthew in Dunhill Links, I can attest he adores dogs & they love him back).

Matthew looks so dapper as a country gent (he described himself less kindly as a 'country bumkin' in the recent Welt interview).

Would Vash own a cat or a dog? Hypothetically. (Or something else? I think he'd like having pet chickens but y'know.)

I an now thinking intensely about Vash and pets. Because he’s be weird about them. Not just with the lifespan difference, which would be even more noticeable, but the idea of keeping animals. Would he see similarities in how Plants are treated and livestock? Would he not? There are a lot of moments in Stampede especially where he’s compared to a dog-what does he think about this?

While traveling I can maybe see him doing falconry, since then it could fly to safety, and falconers release their birds after a set time, so he wouldn’t have to watch it die.

Post canon, I think he’d get a cat.
