You sent me an ask so I shall return the favor! What is the most recent Kpop group you’ve gotten into and how did you find out about them? I always love hearing fan “origin stories” lol
Thank you for returning the favor~ That would be The Boyz 🥰💖 I love hearing fan "origin stories" too hehe (This is gonna get long I love them sm)
Anyways I've known about them since debut? I loved Bloom Bloom Pow with my whole heart when it came out and tried to fall for them then- It didn't work. The next time was when The Stealer (TS) came out~ I had watched them perform for Road to Kingdom- because ptg was on the show too- But I really loved TS cb- sm so that I bought the album about 6 mos later with my favorite members as inclusions at the time (Eric, Kevin and Hyunjae). But nothing came about of it even after watching the weekly idol episodes... Then came Whisper era and I ended up biasing Changmin (Q) and loving that song but again nothing came out of it.
(A little backstory is that Changkyun (I.M) got me into Dominic Fike's music-) Thus, when tiktok showed me Juyeon, Changmin, and Sunwoo dancing to Babydoll earlier this year as a dance cover: I fell. And then I finally checked out Watch It~ But Hui had his solo and it distracted me completely from falling further. Then I had gotten sick and decided 'well, what if I watch their content?' And I did... I watched their hello82 interview and their reaction to fanart of them, and lastly their mafia dance. And I loved each sm that I decided to check out more.
It was the first time I had watched their content and wanted to see more. And now, I watch their content almost daily. It's kind of like they revived the joy of kpop for me? My (old) ult of ults has been on hiatus due to the military so it's been stagnant content lately for me. But then they came in like a breath of fresh air- and I simply can't get enough. This month will be 3 mos and I honestly hope I'll follow them for a long time. (I think they're my new ult of ults tbh)
And lastly now here I am as a Younghoon and Juyeon bias (with bias wrecker: Changmin... he's doing everything to be bias again). And with them having a comeback I loved with my whole heart this past month, I think it really solidified them with me. Honestly, I'm so happy with them.
#my 'fan origin story' hehe#lovely mutuals#asks#kate rambles from here#i even started a new kpop journal just dedicated to them and my thoughts- it's a 200 page journal and i have nearly 50 pages about them#and i started it in february ebhbha-#it's so funny because i saw one of my ults' concerts in theater the month before they should have became the ult of ults and here tbz comes#if the theory is true that you fall in love with certain people/groups/things at certain time then that means even when#i wanted to fall in love with them- that i had to wait until now to fall for them even if i wanted to fast forward it- i think now is a#perfect time- it's when i need them most i think- and fuck i could go on about them forever and why they mean sm to me in such little#time but oh how i love these guys-#no seriously everything i wish they could do- i find out they've done or will do- or for like pcs i like them a certain way and by golly#does yh do my favorite poses- and their music is just ?!?! i love it sm- ofc i've listened to them before a lot but ?? it's my speed rn#kate rambles#did i drag my close friend into them too? yes- yes I did- but she had full free will- she could have stayed on the happy mbb boat instead#of jumping into the water and swimming to lip gloss island with me- but alas she didn't so it's even more fun cause i get to be a new#deobi with her- and it's literally the best experiance i could have ever asked for- she prolly won't see these (i'm banking on it) and#honestly i'm so thankful for her- for joining me in this 'insanity' we've gotten ourselves into- i'm glad we were both stolen from our mbb#home together- it's sm fun to talk about tbz with her- because she's experiencing them new just like i am- i could go on here too#but i won't- so i'll stop here- i love these boyz sm tbh (every time i say it even if it's a lot- it doesn't feel enough)

Do you have theories on why lizards and how relatively open are they to being befriended by slugcat? Them continuing to be a threat to slugpups makes sense, as well as possibility of the lizard accidentally biting the slugcat during a careless attempt at feeding (which is why I now only give them snacks by tossing and running the moment I am sure the Lizard is locked on it). But usually it seems predators take longer to form such mutualistic (suppose?) approach, especially to prey. Cycles maybe?
Looks like kind of a mixture of both generally recognising when it benefits them to stick around, and resource-guarding behaviour directed towards a creature that has made itself look very valuable.
There's two main ways a slugcat can go about taming a lizard- by establishing itself as either a source of food, or a source of protection (saving one from a vulture causes your reputation with it to go way up). Either way, you've convinced it that eating you or letting you die would be counterproductive at this point, so as long as it remains convinced it'll follow you around and protect you from its rivals and other threats so it doesn't lose out. There's probably a number of things that factor into why they'll act in this way so readily, but if you look at it as an alternate expression of other traits and behaviours they already show off, you can kind of see where it might stem from.
Lizards are incredibly food-motivated- they'll go for pretty much anything they can fit in their mouth (that's large enough to be worth the effort), and will ignore almost everything else to run and cache it in their dens, presumably to store for later instead of wasting time that they could be spending finding more. Especially considering the state of the world and limited time pressure placed on every creature by the rain, in general it's probably kind of difficult for a large carnivore to consistently find enough to eat every single cycle. A successful catch whenever you need it isn't at all a guarantee; with that in mind, them having developed some degree of stockpiling behaviour would make sense, and suggests at least a rudimentary understanding that being careful with your food supply hugely bolsters your survival odds in the long run. Likely as a direct consequence of this, many lizards are highly territorial and/or competitive to varying degrees, and will chase rivals down and fight viciously to steal each others' prey or protect their resources under threat. It's also important to note lizards have a global reputation system- if you're nice enough across the board they'll become passive and if you harm enough they'll start to fear you, a behaviour unique amongst predators that suggests as a species they're just about intelligent enough to learn from experience and observation when it's better to just leave something alone.
It's most likely these specific characteristics that allow a lizard to become "tamed" so quickly. All you're really doing is taking advantage of their ability to recognise a valuable benefit, and redirecting their drive to defend one onto you, by teaching them to associate you with good things. No matter how tasty a slugcat looks, if it's proven time and time again that it will provide more food and support (that you desperately need) while alive than it could ever be worth dead, then why on earth would you want to let it die, or allow some other creature to take advantage instead?
Tumblr media
However, this relationship only lasts as long as you put the effort into maintaining it. If you fail to let them into your shelter or feed them enough in subsequent cycles, or throw weapons at or around them (even by accident), they'll decide you're no longer worth the effort and quickly go from warning-bites to straight up turning on you as your reputation drops. Additionally, considering they by and large don't seem to recognise the slugcat's other companions- be it other tamed lizards or pups or friendly scavengers- as anything other than a rival or something else to eat, it's pretty clear that to their understanding they really are just guarding a resource and not joining a pack; lizards are not social creatures by nature with very little need to have developed emotional intelligence (even yellows I suspect aren't very close with each other beyond their advanced hunting formations and sharing prey), and any cooperation is strictly down to improving their odds of survival, not any form of attachment or gratitude as we would recognise it. It's still considered mutualistic, as both parties benefit from the relationship, but while a slugcat might become emotionally attached to their companion, the lizard isn't really capable of reciprocating in the same way.
With all that in mind, it's likely not the case that they're any more open to being "befriended" on an emotional level than any other predator in-game- they're just the only ones you can successfully lead to believe that you might actually be more useful alive than you would be as a few extra food pips, and for that to work out in your favour. Other major threats to the slugcat like vultures, miros birds and most large invertebrates most likely either lack the intelligence to discern one prey item from another, or they're so high on the food chain there's simply no meaningful benefit they could get out of collaboration (or both). It just so happens that lizards manage to be in the perfect position on the food chain with ideal behaviour to take advantage of that it's made possible to convince them being your friend is worth it, however temporarily.
-----
BONUS: the first lizard i ever tamed. was a little bit pathetic and utterly failed to protect me from anything before falling off a building in sky islands trying to wrestle a white lizard and losing, but the several painful minutes I spent being mediocre at squidcada hunting were worth it anyway. I miss him every day. godspeed you blue idiot

okay so following the lovely help of many mutuals, to begin my little reactivity on this blog i am doing a quick spring clean! ultimately, please like this post if you wish to remain mutuals.  there’s no harsh feelings if you don’t! but coming back to this blog is going to involve a lot of effort i need to put in my end, and i don’t wish to make anyone uncomfortable if they no longer wish to interact with me. if you’re someone i a.) write with currently ( aka we’ve had a thread in the last 5 months ) b.) are one of my shipping partners, there’s no need to like this because i will absolutely continue to follow you - however, you’re more than free to to confirm you’re more than happy to continue following! ps: i’ll rb this at different times of the day over the course of the next week so everyone has a chance to see it.

The struggle about posting stories that I KNOW are going to be zero-note wonders is that I have to finish them before I post them. I have to rely on myself to enjoy them enough to finish them, both because I will not be getting feedback from readers saying 'wow I'm so excited about this!!' but also my brain will interpret a lack of positive attention as people hating it instead of as a reasonable lack of interest due to writing about unpopular characters or writing in a dead fandom. This is one of the fun tricks you learn when you've been writing for over a decade.

LOOKS AT YOU WITH BIG AUTISTIC EYES please tell me about your crimeboys ib au..
Well well well, Thes I am so glad you asked you see, because I was remembering the game and Immediately I was hit with the idea that Garry is literally so cWilbur and then in my mind it spiraled from there.
So in this au, I think that Tommy is a high-school student who hates going to class and Technoblade was already planning on going to an art Muesum on this one day Tommy was particularly sick of it.
So Techno said yaknow what Kid, listen, you want to skip? Fine, but you are coming with me to see this gallery show. Phil won't suspect a thing.
Tommy agrees, because, well- he may hate the idea of staring at art but he hates his classes more so he skips school with Technoblade.
He and Techno get to the gallery and Tommy quickly ditches Techno at the front desk to wander. As any energetic Tommy would, ready to find the ugliest thing he can to compare Technoblade too.
As he explores the gallery, eventually at some point the lights flicker and suddenly he is the only one there.
And well, you know how it goes from there. He explores the Muesum and finds himself walking into a painting on the floor that had somehow become real.
Suddenly he is somewhere completely diffrent, and the art everywhere wants to hurt him- and this rose he found is directly conected to his life.
He wanders. And he wanders- until he finds this random ass guy nearly passed out on the floor mumbling about a blue rose- and being the humble and charismatic guy Tommy is ( and totally not afraid of being alone) he helps him.
This man turns out to be none other than Wilbur Soot- wary from the seemingly endless amount of time he spent stuck there.
Both of them want to leave and Wilbur not wanting to let some random kid wander around decides to stick with Tommy. Together they work to find an exit to this hellscape gallery with Tommy's joking attitude to help Wilbur stay calm. Wilbur helps Tommy with puzzles and tasks he otherwise wouldn't of been able to do on his own.
In the actual game we are presented with Mary. A painting who pretends to be human because she wants to live a real life with real friends. I think that well- this concept of wanting to be something other than what someone made you- and the want to feel like a person with their own life outside the dim reality of their situation- fits cTubbo well. So Ctubbo takes the role of Mary in this au.
When they find Tubbo wandering about, Tubbo instantly becomes friends with Tommy, and he fits in well with them.
He is a little odd and thinks the scary paintings and sculptures to be cute. But its nothing to concerning.
Now of course in the game there isn't a good ending for Mary and Garry both. Because Marry is the antagonist in the game (although a tragic one)
That being said in my perfect little world- Although they fight and Tubbo seems a scary painting like the rest, Tommy and Wilbur bring Tubbo back to the real world with them when they hop back through the painting at the end. Because I think if anyone could see the humanity in someone it's Tommy.
I could rant on and on about this a whole lot more. I love alot of the concepts in this game, but for the sake of not rambling on to long on one ask, that's pretty much it- take this messy 30 minute doodle to emphasize my vision.

sometimes i think abt how at my rep shows i was so excited to see tumblr people and didn't rly get to meet any of my mutuals at the shows but i saw someone with their tumblr url on a poster and wanted to go up to them and say hi but i got kinda shy and then posted about it and looked at their blog and i could tell they were the kinda swifties only on tumblr to meet taylor but i thought still it would be nice to say hell so i finally did and like spoke to them for a few minutes and then they basically ignored me as soon as i followed them and i ended up going back to my seat without even saying goodbye and i'm p sure i unfollowed them like a few weeks later bc i just didn't feel good about the interaction
