Shark!Adam + backstory
Backstory ->
Das war wieder einmal ein Selbstläufer. Alles entwickelte sich wie von selbst. Jedenfalls dachte ich darüber nach, wie und wo Merfolk!Adam Tattoos etc haben könnte:
Er hatte einmal eine Seeschlange, vllt auch ne Muräne, als Tattoo. Das Zeichen seiner Familie. Er wollte kein Teil davon sein. Nicht mehr und bat auch nie darum. Er war all den Drill leid und konnte nicht leben wie er wollt (vor allem nicht mit wem). Sein Vater brannte es ihm vom Leib, hinterließ aber eine warnende Narbe. Er würde seine Herkunft nie leugnen können..
Im 'Exil' ließ er sich das 'L' auf die Innenseite des rechten Arms tätowieren und trägt ein Armband + grün schimmernde Schuppe links. Ihn hat mal eine Muräne gebissen… aber das war weniger schmerzhaft als das Wissen ein Feigling zu sein, weil er ging, weil er floh und das Meerwesen zurückließ, das so viel mutiger war als er und welches immer dafür sorgte, dass sein Herz Purzelbäume schlug, und schmerzte zugleich… zu ewiger Sehnsucht verdammt.

Phylum Round 3
Annelida: Segmented Worms. This group includes earthworms, leeches, and many classes under the umbrella of “polychaete”. This diverse phylum encompasses deposit feeders (eating dirt), detritivores, scavengers, deadly ambush predators, filter feeders, parasites, herbivores, and more. They are broadly defined by their repeating body segments and parapodia, which are nubby appendages used for both movement and breathing. Some have curved jaws for catching prey or scraping detritus off of rocks, while others have wide, elaborate, brightly colored feather-like fans for filter feeding. While able to crawl freely, a majority of marine Annelids spend most of their time in self-built tubes or burrows. Among their many important functions, they play a key role in mixing soil/sediment, breaking down decaying organic matter, and providing a key food source to countless other animals.
Cnidaria: Jellyfish, anemones, corals, box jellies, and hydroids. They have a gelatinous body with radial symmetry, a decentralized nervous system, and tentacles surrounding a simple mouth. The defining feature of this phylum are their cnidocytes, or stinging cells. There are two different body plans of the Cnidaria; an immobile “polyp” attached to a surface, or a free-living “medusa” which can swim or drift in the water column. Many polyp Cnidarians, such as corals, live in colonies. Some corals build reefs which serve as habitat for other animals. Free-living medusa Cnidarians must return to the seafloor in a polyp-like stage as a part of their life cycle.

cannot recommend enough just walking around your neighbourhood, noticing the plants, trees, birds, creepy-crawlies, mammals, rocks, watercourses, etc that are around you. looking them up and learning about them, how they behave, their seasonal rhythms and changes. learning about their presence in folklore and mythology and culture.
these are your neighbours. if you take a few minutes to learn about them, if you make the small effort to notice them, be mindful of them on a regular basis, honour them and respect them - this is animism. this is re-enchantment.
we all live alongside and in community with a myriad of spirits. it is truly so beautiful and life-affirming and sacred to appreciate that and the unique character of your neighbour-spirits.

Hiya! How did you get into Haikyuu?
I got into it because this one strange yandere writer happened to show up on another writer's page and as I was a literal yandere baby I really wanted to read whatever I could get m hands on.
She wrote a fantastic yandere kuroo fic, and then a fantastic yandere oikawa fic, and i greedily consumed everything on her page. And when i was done i immediately binged season 1 and not long after season 2 and 3
