Once the harsh winter is gone, when come the good and easier days, we often encounter bears swimming by the ice edge. Polar bears are extremely capable of having fun alone with whatever they find 🐻‍❄️ !.

Finished painting a set of pendants for a commission about Shackleton's Trans-Antarctic expedition. Endurance, whales, Frank Hurley and penguins. Sea pottery officially captured my brain.

Imagine diving in the chilly waters of Monterey Bay to experience the textures of underwater plants and animals.
What do you think touching smooth, wavy grooves (new band name?) of a blade of kelp feels like?
Tumblr media
Or the rough and tough exterior of an abalone shell?
Tumblr media
How about the teeny pointed toes of a hermit crab as they tickle the palm of your hand?
Tumblr media
Anyone can have these magical experiences at the Aquarium's touch pools, no diving experience necessary! What would you explore at our touch pools?

Here’s a collection of Sqwishland (a special interest of mine.) I found this seller who had most of them, but their prices are high so I wouldn’t recommend purchasing from them.
Your best bet is too buy in bulk directly from Sqwishland.com, sadly they’re very expensive too but it’s still a better deal for your money compared to the people who price hike them on second hand sites. Resellers can really bother me :/
Anyway, I like using this blog to document childhood toys that are hard to get your hands on. Reseller slander aside I try to be positive on here so please enjoy these little guys! I loveeee the blue turtle in the fourth picture he’s so cute.

Okay basing this off the fact Eclipse can travel waters, what if Yn tells him they can't live in one cold and he just takes them to the warmer waters?
Heheh seahorse yn
Oh my gosh oh my gosh hhhhghghghhghg new Y/N just dropped
This would be one setting where it's not in the Arctic but Eclipse has left those waters to drift about, and look what he happens to find! A lovely little siren, hiding in the kelp.
A leafy sea dragon that can camouflage and even change colors to hide themselves in seaweed and the kelp formations they live amongst. Speed is not their forte. They also have a prehensile tail that can coil around or grasp things. They would live in deeper waters and have beautiful dark brown, yellow, and greenish hues to their leaf-like appendages over their tail with small, transparent dorsal and pectoral fins!
Tumblr media
Every time Eclipse glides through the warm waters of seagrass, searching like a hungry shark, Y/N clings tightly to kelp with wide, terrified eyes. They watch him drift closer, hoping against hope that their tail colors have shifted enough to blend them into invisibility. But, somehow, he always snatches them out of the protection of the underwater forest and meadows. Y/N cannot run away, they simply lack the agility and speed, so they're stuck once Eclipse has his hands on them.
Y/N gets used to Eclipse's grabbiness—it's strange to interact with an apex predator that doesn't want to eat them (at least not right away.) They will relax enough to let Eclipse pull them along, his pace so much faster, and even coil their tail around him when Eclipse decides to stretch out on the seagrass for cuddles.
Y/N's leafy appendages are a great source of awe and admiration for Eclipse, and Y/N has never seen such a black and white fish like him before, especially not in their home. Eclipse loves Y/N's slow and drawn-out singing. Y/N doesn't often sing, especially when he's taking hold of them, but he'll keep his hands off just to let them echo a few notes while weaving in between the long kelp strands. He'll follow, much less graceful in the watery forest, but he never loses sight of them.

Rouge strikes me as the kind of person to know the history of the culture around her. She's a city girl. She knows the streets and the people who've made their home there. She knows where to get the best tamales and dim sum and hot dogs in the various neighborhoods. Where to shop, where to steal, where to visit and where to see. How it got that way. "A riot happened here," she explains to Shadow as they run down a specific road, "back in the day. And it changed things."
Shadow, then, is the equivalent of a small-town boy. And he's hit with just how much history and culture can be baked into a ten-mile radius. More foods than he could ever name, more foreign languages on shop signs than he could ever recognize, more histories and heritages than he ever knew were possible. He realizes that someone could spend a lifetime here and still not have experienced it all.
(And that gives him the only thing he looks forward to about the long future ahead of him. Instead of just one lifetime, he'll have several.)
(Maybe he could experience it all.)

The Banham Family Magic Lantern Collection. From the auction description:
Of Franklin Expedition and Polar Interest. Thirty-two slides in original box, probably assembled from several sets on Arctic expeditions including those led by Parry and the 'Franklin search'. Single hand-painted glass slides in wooden frames 6 7/8 x 3 3/4 x 3/8 inches.
There are dozens of images, and I recognise some of them from classic polar exploration books like Voyage of the 'Fox' and Parry's narratives. Otherworldly, glowing colours bring the scenes to life.

'Moonlight in the Arctic Regions', 'Parry's First Meeting with the [Inuit]', 'A Magnetic Observatory', ships overwintering, and 'Funeral On The Ice' for an unnamed British subject.
