INFODUMP.
MORE.
I shall.
This is the Flying Dragon Nebula & it's catalogued as SH2-114.
It is a very faint emission nebula in the Cygnus constellation.
Its wispy twisted shapes resemble a flying dragon with outstretched bat-like wings, a serpentine neck & two aptly placed yellow stars for glowing eyes on its face.
It is an unusual emission nebula that is thought to be sculpted by a combination of intense stellar winds emitted by massive, hot O & B class stars interacting with magnetic fields within the interstellar medium.
This large curving filamentary structure appears to be part of a supernova, but no supernova remnant has yet been identified as the source.
Other than this - not much more is known about this object.
This is also my last attempt to show my appreciation for you both in order to fix things I have no control over.

I officially broke 120k on my Vegeta/Raditz under Freeza fic today 👀 It's about 75% done. It's broken down into 12 major sections, and I've written 9 of them. I think it'll be 150-170k once all is said and done. Stay tuned for when I start posting after completing it...

i see a lot of posts about letting your autistic partner ramble about something while you touch them/give them head/fuck them/whatever, and i approve of that, definitely. 10/10.
but i would like to propose: autistic dom who infodumps to you while they're making you feel good and makes you pay attention to what they're saying the whole time. they're touching you in all the right places, going at just the right rhythm with just the right amount of pressure and it's driving you fucking crazy, all while they're rambling casually about whatever their current interest is like nothing's even happening.
every time you say something small to acknowledge what they're saying, like "mhm", "right", "yeah," or something like that, their movements get a little more intense as a reward for paying attention. but if you get lost in the pleasure and forget to engage with what they're telling you for too long, they go "sorry, are you not listening anymore? alright, i guess I'll stop then." and you have to beg for it if you want them to keep going.

jesper and wylan: *standing under mistletoe*
jesper: "hey wylan" *points up*
wylan: *looks up* "omg mistletoe! did you know mistletoe is actually a parasite? they grow in big bunches up in trees and slowly suck all the nutrients out of their hosts :)"
jesper: "how romantic"

Imagine the boys getting cursed to bear witness to “some of the most negatively impactful things in their lives” and they’re terrified, thinking it’ll be stuff like the invasion or Shredder or something-
Only to be met with multiple scenarios of their family. Saying offhand, but hurtful things. Doing hurtful things. Lots of scenarios that were inconsequential to everyone but the one most affected.
And they’re all scrambling, desperate to make sure the others don’t look too deep into it haha it doesn’t really bother them- but they all know the truth. Because they’re all in the same position here. It wasn’t on purpose, and they all know it wasn’t on purpose, but it still hurts.
It’s almost a relief, that they’re going through it all together. That they can apologize for mistakes, and accept that they’ve held onto hurt too long when they could have dealt with it sooner.
And that’s how they break the curse, reversing it into something different, as they’re told that before it leaves them for good they’ll bear witness to the most positively impactful things in their lives. And now they think they’ll see some of their best victories, some of their grandest adventures-
The scenes they see then are of the same cloth as their negative ones. Simple scenes, ones that most wouldn’t remember. Times where someone managed to make someone else smile, times where they were just so content to exist by the other’s side, times where they were just happy being there with their brothers, their family.
It’s the little things that go the farthest, because that’s what you experience the most in life. And they’ll mess up again, of course. Things happen, and they’ll never really know how their actions and words will be taken. But through the good and the bad, they’re family.
Besides - turns out, there’s a lot more good.

HI!! I WAS WONDERING IF YOU HAD ANY COOL CROW FACTS AND I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO SAY THAT YOU ARE PURPLE PERSONIFIED AND VERY VERY COOL! :D
Crows are fascinating birds & they are actually very smart & they don't deserve the bad reputation they have.
Alright, here are some facts:
When a crow dies, its neighbours may have a funeral.
Older crow siblings help the parents co-parent their smaller siblings.
Crows have regional dialects, just like humans.
They are also able to read traffic lights.
Beware, crows are good at facial recognition & thus can hold a grudge. ;)
Crows understand impulse control (unlike Nardo)
But also:
Crows, ravens & parrots have the biggest brain-to-body size ratios of all living bird species.
They’ve shown levels of cognition that put them on par with the great apes. In lab tests, they have shown a much higher density of neurons in their forebrains than primates do.
The number of neurons in this region is thought to correlate with a given animal’s intelligence.
Theoretically, having more neurons translates to better cognitive reasoning.
A 2020 study looked at whether crows, like humans & great apes, can demonstrate consciousness.
Crow brains lack a cerebral cortex, where most of the primate brain’s conscious perception happens. Researchers tracked the brain activity in two crows as they performed different tasks & discovered that they could perceive sensory input, suggesting that there is much more to understand about the evolution of consciousness.
I hope you're satisfied! /g
Thank you for the compliment ~
