The other moral of Scavengers Reign is that, while nature in all its beauty can often be brutal and seem cruel, do not despair– for it also contains so many Little Guys.

everyday i wake up (face down in mud), roll out of bed (hair a mess), text god (say good morning), eat a raw cactus (yum), go to the doctor to get ALLLLL the spikes removed from my mouth (even the not-cactus ones that i grew in there myself!) and flirt with ALLLLL the medical professionals (M.D. stands for Mvery Dnice)

… they wrote the obituary for my grandfather and it’s so fucking painfully obvious none of them knew a single thing about him. They couldn’t stop at just completely disrespecting his post-death plan and wishes. They were all so focused on getting their own names somewhere in it. I hate it here and can’t wait to have nothing to do with these people again.

Here's some silly little metaphors that I think the dragon tribes would use
SkyWings
“Don’t count your clutch before they hatch.” (Don't plan too much too soon)
“Gold is better than silver, but silver is better than nothing.” (If you can't do it perfectly, still try your best. Most dragons forget the second part.)
“‘Sorry’ can't suck the fire back in.” (The damage is done and now you're dead to me.)
“You been eating too much burnt meat or something?” (Are you nuts?)
“Stop all this smoke and use your fire.” (Stop rambling and get to the point already; or stop complaining and do something)
“Doesn't know his tail from his wings.” (Stupid or clumsy)
“You fly like a depressed pigeon.” (Slow flier)
“There's no fire in a rainstorm.” (Stop feeling sorry for yourself and get to work.)
“Nighttime is for the NightWings.” (What are you doing up? Go to sleep.)
SandWings
“She’s all rattle, and no strike.” (Like all bark no bite)
“A diamond in a pile of quartz.” (Like a needle in a haystack)
“You’re watering the cactus and ignoring the sapling.” (You’re focusing on the wrong thing; barking up the wrong tree)
“Everyone thinks the camel looks silly until the dry season comes.” (Don't listen to them, they don't know how unique and strong you are)
MudWings
“Crocodile tears.” (Fake crying in order to gain sympathy)
“You can only catch a trout if your mouth is open.” (Be open to new experiences)
“If the tree gives away too much, it ends up as a stump.” (Don't let people take advantage of your generosity)
SeaWings
“Happy as a clam in high water.” (Very happy)
“The flying fish feels like a fool when it sees an osprey.” (Don't compare yourself to others, run your own race.)
“Plenty of fish in the sea.” (Plenty more opportunities to come.)
“You’ve got ink in your eyes.” (You're blind to something important)
“Lobsters only die when they don't leave their shell.” (Keep yourself busy with new experiences and you'll life a long life)
NightWings
“Sleep is for the dead.” (Why waste your time sleeping when you could be productive)
“SeaWings know their fish and SandWings know their cactuses, but we NightWings know everything else.”(NightWing supremacy propaganda)
“Being nice to a deer never got one in my mouth.” (Other dragons don't matter, only your goals.)
“A prophecy always comes true.” (I told you so but more cryptic)
"You're counting the stars." (You're doing something tedious towards an unachievable goal)
RainWings
“Gray’s her favorite color.” (She's a huge bummer)
“A lemon is yellow on the outside, doesn't mean they're not sour.” (Referring to someone who is two faced or fake)
“I love honey, but I’d rather not get stung by the bees.” (I could do this, but it requires effort so I don't wanna)
“Nobody likes a rotten banana.” (Nobody likes a bummer/downer)
“Don't tie your tail in a knot” (don't get all upset)
“I have all my berries in a basket” (I have everything sorted out)
“You couldn't sneak up on a pineapple” (insult to one's camouflage skills, popular among children)
IceWings
“The seal who asks why the orca is chasing him is the first to get eaten.” (A favorite of parents telling their kids to shut up)
“Not the sharpest icicle on the roof” (kinda stupid or slow)
“Clear as polished ice” (i understand or see it very well)
“You're looking a little pink in the face” (you look sickly. IceWings can turn pink from eating too much krill; a symptom of malnutrition. This line can be applied to any illness.)
“Blue blood kills, red blood spills.” (Patriotic propaganda implying that IceWings win every fight
“The SkyWings toss their blue eyed hatchlings because they're worried they'll be as strong as an IceWing.” (More propaganda)
HiveWings
“Pretty is for the SilkWings.” (Vanity is stupid and impractical)
“If it buzzes like a bug and bites like a bug, it's a bug.” (Don't ignore the obvious)
“Clearsight works in mysterious ways.” (I don't know the answer to your question, now go away)
SilkWings
“It's not always good to know how the honey gets made.” (Don't stick your snout where it doesn't belong)
“She's got a couple of threads loose.” (Calling someone a little crazy, threads refers to weaving)
“The bee minds its flowers and the spider minds her silk, it's when they mix that bad things happen.” (Mind ya business)
LeafWings
“Flytraps only trap because the soil doesn't feed them.” (Dragons don't get angry out of nowhere)
“Looking like a leaf only hides you in the forest.” (Time and place)
“If a branch doesn't bend, it breaks.” (Be flexible)
“Even the corpse flower attracts the flies.” (Even someone who seems ugly to one dragon they can seem irresistible to another)

hii we’ve been mutuals for a super long time but don’t really talk as much buuut i just wanted to send a little message to check up on you. i hope you’ve been doing okay or at least hanging in there. i’m always thinking of you and wishing you the best! wishing you a peaceful august ahead of you 💛💗
hellooo💗💗 it's so incredibly kind of you to ask how i'm holding up, i can't express how much i appreciate it rly thank you💞 i am gonna ramble a bit sorryy but i'm doing okay i think, surviving at least. my sister's birthday was on the 27th and it's been p rough for me since then bcos i was sorta putting all of my energy and thinking into still trying to make it a special day for her and since, not being up and on the move for her is draining me almost more than actually doing anything would so ig thats why i haven't been online as much but my friend suggested that i start a journal for her of happy memories and stuff so i think doing that might help a bit ! i'm thinking about going along to a group grief counseling thing with my mum, my aunt and a few other family members later on this month so that should be good for me too. it's incredibly hard to get any sort of help in that way here esp just now so it's rly the only thing any of us can do and the group is JUST starting so we'll see how it goes. i'm not the type to talk unlike how i am on here lol but just listening might help! but YE, thank you again!! i hope you're doing alright and i hope august is good to you as well💞

Probably need to repot my cactuses soon, they've grown a lot since I got them. The only problem is that repotting cactuses sucks

Near the place I currently live there is this small library run by this guy who will let you borrow book with no late fees or anything. He has been running it for ten years thanks to donations and also he sells tiny cactuses. He also teaches math and physics for free. Like people here love him. He graduated top of his class in college and now he’s just running a library and teaches people and takes care of plants and I’m reminded that some people are just good because they’re.

Unknown the series……I’ve not seen anyone else talk about this but I’m sure you will have noticed.
Yuans cactus. Qian looked after this while he was away we know and it was small and dying before he started to take care of it.
In the scene with Yuan and Lilly now Yuan is back - there is now 2 cactus in the pot….the single “dying” cactus has now grown into two healthy cactus and Yuan keeps playing with it during his conversation with Lilly.
this is significant right?? Or am I now to far into your feed that I now focus on cactuses for symbolism during key plot lines?! 😬
If you came in my inbox thinking I was going to somehow deter you from this thought process, obviously you haven't gone deep enough in my feed because I'm obsessed with Qian taking care of all the plants! Like this little green gal in the white pot? I call her Sheila.
Tumblr media
When Yuan was gone, Sheila was sad.
Tumblr media
But look at her grow!
Tumblr media
LOOK AT HER!
Tumblr media
Sis was living her best life under Qian's gentle thumb.
Tumblr media
So while everyone was busy paying attention to Care Bear Cactus, Sheila has just be thriving in the background.
Tumblr media
And it makes sense that Care Bear Cactus is important enough to get all the attention since he is doing exactly what you wrote - telling a story.
Tumblr media
The story of one little abandoned and unloved item
Tumblr media
That Qian decided to take care of
Tumblr media
And watch over
Tumblr media
And gave a place where it could thrive
Tumblr media
So that little cactus could one day use all that love it was given
Tumblr media
And create its own love to extend to others
Tumblr media
So, yeah, I think what you wrote about the little green guys is significant since green represents growth and new beginnings and this is a story of growth and new beginnings.
Tumblr media
But never forget my girl Sheila has had her dark days too!
Tumblr media
Growth!

WHAT MAYBE COULD HAVE BEEN
starring nagi seishiro!
synopsis: nagi has a nice life. its peaceful and he needn't work too hard, just like he likes it. sometimes, though, every once in a while, he sits around with his regrets thinking about what maybe could have been.
notes: i tried to write angst but it didnt rly work lolol
Tumblr media
nagi is, for the most part, pretty content with his life.
its kind of a no-think-just-do kind of thing, which he quite enjoys. he goes to his 9-5 office job, comes back, tends to choki, eats dinner, plays games for a few hours, and goes to bed. then, the cycle repeats. its basic, sure, but there's nothing wrong with that.
except that there's, well, everything wrong with that.
now, don't get him wrong. he's grateful for his relatively leisurely life and enjoys the slow pace. he's a lazy guy, after all. a life full of action and emotion just wouldnt be very him.
but still, every so often, nagi will find himself wondering, daydreaming, thinking, about what maybe could have been.
about what maybe could have been if he decided to go pro with isagi and reo and chigiri and them. maybe then, he could be rich and famous. his mind could be surpassing limits and soaring to new heights. he could be a renowned soccer player like that.. noel no.. something.. guy? the really good one on tv that chigiri was talking about. he could be an inspiration to millions!
nah, nagi doesnt need wealth nor fame. hes fine with the humble lifestyle he leads. plus, part of the reason he enjoys said lifestyle is because he doesnt need to do much thinking. his brain can just relax and be lazy. in some ways, its better this way. thinking is such a hassle!
but then, he thinks about what maybe could have been if he'd tried harder in school. he could be working a high-paying job and could be living in a house. choki could have a family and he'd be able to spend more freely. think of all the games he could buy that he cant afford on his corporate salary.
again, nah. he still did pretty well in school without much effort. a corporate job may not be fancy, but its good work. plus, what would he even be doing with a house? his apartment has all the space he needs, and choki's thriving on his own! he doesnt need cactus friends. plus, having to care for a house and more cactuses would be such a hassle. not to mention the work you have to put in for a higher-paying job.
but sometimes, he thinks about what maybe could have been if he kept in touch with his friends from blue lock. he could still have late-night talks with chigiri, and spend quality time at the park with isagi. then, he could actually hangout with people. reo's away pretty often, so they dont hang much.
once more, nah! nagi's plenty happy with choki, reo, and the coworkers that hes become friendly with. he's an introvert, after all. too many friends would become too exhausting, and it would zap the peacefulness out of his peaceful life. even being with reo is a hassle sometimes.
all of it is a hassle. he's fine with the way everything turned out, really.
but afterwards, once he's lying in his bed, trying to submit to slumber, he finds himself really, really thinking about what maybe could have been.
about what maybe could have been if he hadn't decided that you, too, were a hassle.
about what maybe, just maybe, could have been if he picked up your phone calls every time, even when he was gaming. about what maybe could have been if he took time out of his day for you and only you. about what maybe could have been if he said 'i love you' more, and comforted and reassured you. about what maybe could have been if he valued you. treasured you. treated you right.
about what maybe could've been if he'd done all of it right. then maybe, just maybe, he could be playing the match of his life right now, with you cheering him on in the sidelines, crying out his name, waiting to go home to a place you deserve to be with a whole choki family.
about what maybe could've been if he just didnt declare it all to be a hassle, and maybe he could've touched the stars.
but for now, nagi sleeps. he has to go to his 9-5 tomorrow, after all.
