Thinking about de-aged Bruce via magical shenanigans being a bit of a menace. He will bite you if given the chance, and will draw blood. Slippery as an eel to catch. Don't even think you can corner him in his own home, he knows every single secret room and deep tunnel in the manor. Your eyes are scratch-able to him. Try telling he's the future and he's demanding you tell him who killed his parents. Can't tell him? Alright then, you're lying. He would've found out by now if this really the future.
okay I know Phoenix putting a parrot on the stand is rightfully clowned upon in the ace attorney meme posts, but now that i'm finally playing the games i feel like it's almost never mentioned that the opposing prosecutor COACHED THE PARROT.
No dude fr I need scar so bad I need to ride him and edge him until he’s a crying whimpering mess underneath me.
His voice?? Dude imagine that all broken and gasping UGH imagine him gripping at the sheets or your hips like omg
Anyway. I’m normal
THANK YOU!!! YOU GET IT!!!!! i know in my heart of hearts he's a clingy little bastard he loves pulling and grabbing because he needs to be so close to whoever's fucking him 🙏🙏 and god ur so right abt his voice i really need to scrub through more phasmo vods for his little spooked sounds
So the recent lovely adorable Catula art got me thinking about the Dracula cast and animals. Namely, what pets they would have.
Jonathan+Mina - they both love cats, Jonathan often feeds strays, and after all that's happened they're finally able to get their own cat now that they have a stable home/money/etc. The cat and baby Quincey Harker are best friends.
Quincey Harker - The family cat of course, but later on Uncle Art gets him a dog (maybe a puppy from Lucy's pug, see below), and I think he would very much be the kind of kid who always tries to adopt random animals he finds while playing, especially if they're hurt or seem abandoned. More often than not he gets his wish since his parents are softies.
Arthur - dogs, obviously. He keeps them for hunting but also very much dotes on them and loves them. Also, I want Lucy to have had a pet pug (pre-unhealthy breeding standards) that Arthur adopts after her death, because I think that is a very adorable idea and also maybe a comfort to them both when they needed it. (The pug was just never mentioned but it was totally there all along. Lucy's mom was worried it would disturb her sleep and kept it our of her room when she was more seriously sick, which is very upsetting except it does mean it survived the final attack night.)
Quincey - He's great with horses and does love them but I don't think he thinks of them as pets exactly. At least, I really love the idea of him thinking snakes are very cute, or maybe spiders. Imagine Quincey with a pet garter snake or tarantula. If the latter, maybe he caught it as a kid and still has it (since they can live like 30 years).
Seward - He claims not to really be an animal person and not to want any pets, but there is an asylum cat that spends approximately 80% of every day napping in the sun in his office. Sometimes it steals his chair or his desk and he just goes along with it. Definitely isn't sneaking it treats or anything, no way, its job is to catch mice and he won't ruin its appetite (he says hiding meat in his pockets).
Van Helsing - I REALLY want the reason he thinks parrots are immortal to be because he inherited one from his parents. It's older than he is, and as a kid he just assumed it must be immortal and has never fact-checked this belief. The parrot speaks almost entirely in mixed metaphors using multiple languages, just like its person.
(This applies to corvids, parrots, and some other birds.)
I have heard people say that if your bird flies away you'll never get it back, but if you know what to do parrots and corvids are some of the easiest birds to get back.
Here are a few ideas about what to do:
Watch direction of flight so even if it flies out of sight, you know what direction to start looking in. Depending on the type of bird and how frightened it is, the bird may fly miles before landing.
If a bird is frightened, it is likely to fly in a fairly straight line away from whatever upset it.
DO NOT LEAVE YOUR BIRD even if you have waited for hours below it and it hasn't flown down to you. If night falls, and you are unable to stay with the bird, make absolutely sure you are back before dawn when the bird will wake up. The bird is very likely to fly somewhere new at dawn, or start looking for you. I can't stress this enough: you need almost unreasonable amounts of patience. It may take your bird many hours (perhaps even days) to fly down to you, but don't lose hope. (If you don't know for sure where the bird is, make sure you start looking for it again at dawn.)
Have someone else go get treats to lure the bird down, or its cage if that is available. (If the bird likes its cage, that can act as a lure.)
Things you can do to prepare for this ahead of time:
Teach your bird to come to its name.
Teach it to fly down to you. ("Stepping up" and flying upwards to you are not equivalent to flying down. Flying down takes different skills.)
Record its calls, so you can replay them for it when it flies off. If you can't see the bird or the bird can't see you, you can replay the recordings to help call it to you.
If your bird has unclipped wings, but never flies because its wings were clipped so young that it doesn't know how, either keep its wings clipped or teach it to fly. Otherwise it may spontaneously fly off your shoulder when its outside and not know how to fly back to you.
-_- so I've played this game since 2018. it's called school of dragons. I bought the membership after years of playing it and completing *every* single quest. I got excited and got on to start playing and this feathery F U C K refuses to move.
