I have cried in the office of my sworn nemesis today.
This is how low 2024 has brought me.

the fact that Erica in the Goldbergs isn't a girl in real life is still funny to me. like. is Geoff a completely made up character or did adam goldberg sit down and go 'okay which one of my brother's friends is most likely to fuck my other brother'

Okay Star Flower but instead she’s based off Sunflowers, a flower that looks to the sun with its golden petals and dark center. Idk I feel like it connects her to One eye more. The adoption idea is actually kinda cool tho her being born by a curse is very appealing.
Sunflowers used to grow and bloom across the moors of the lake but as the cats fled and a chilly winter settled in they withered away. A single kitten born to a dead dame in the final patch of dying sunflowers scooped up by the summer deity as his daughter. She grows to have the same chaotic need to remind the cats what they did to her land and how they turned their back on her dad.
I have to veto Sunflowers, though the symbolism is marvelous. Sunflowers are exclusively a commercial crop in England and they really don't like growing up North.
But also the Ancient Lake won't have Moorland! What's now WindClan Territory was once old growth forest, the state that all Moorland returns to when not managed by humans.
It's why there's no "CheetahClan" for the big cat clans. Leopards are analagous to lake-lovers, Tigers were bog-lovers, and Lions were forest-lovers.
Btw I am actually planning something pretty cool mythologically as an explanation for why they have "words" for Tigers, Leopards, and Lions. You know what, I'm gonna go draw it now

@honorhearted continued from x after a year and a half hiatus
"I had other methods when we were in camp…though that’s no longer an option to me. Maybe I should be the one embroidering.”
Ben's lingering stare did not go unnoticed and Molly found herself falling into similar mannerisms, more focused on watching his lips form his next words than the meaning of his speeches. She felt oddly defenseless, as if she'd just been caught in an act of delinquency, as if she had nowhere to hide herself.
“Sorry. I know we were never close beyond the obvious, but I feel like now I’m even less bearable to be around.”
"Aye," she agreed quietly, returning her attention forward, pressing her cheek to his shoulder; she had warmed considerably from their closeness, but even now, she didn't want to relinquish her hold on him, "we've never been friends."
It seemed an outlandish thing to admit to now, but Molly never recalled them treating one another as anything other than a nuisance, than an unconventional means of relief. There had never been friendly discussions or jokes shared between them; even in their senseless fumblings during the war, they had never been kind or gentle with one another, instead cruel words, violent touches being their only means of communication.
Thunder sounded again, though this time it was distant, the storm moving further from them even if the pounding of raindrops and wind still beat against the cabin mercilessly.
There was comfort knowing the storm was subsiding, even just a little, and suddenly Molly felt tiredness sweeping over her, the port beginning to have an affect over her, enough to persuade her to loosen her hold on Ben and sink further under the bedding so she could lay down. She held fast to his forearm though, gently tugging on him, a quiet plea for him to lay beside her.
"You should stay here. In case the storm draws nearer." She didn't want to be alone if the thunder returned, bringing back memories of gunpowder and violence, she didn't want Ben to be alone either.

yaevinn looking incredibly in love with nithral while nithral goes off about the absolute nonsense in medical dramas is the kind of stuff that gives me life. he LIVES for nithral commentary. he doesn't know what the fuck is going on but nithral does and yaevinn loves hearing about it. like "hi king im sorry to make you spend a rare relaxing evening wading through bullshit with me but i just like hearing you talk uwu"
