no, actually my least favorite thing about watching thai dramas while speaking & understanding thai... is that the dialects never match up 😭😭😭 if a character is from a non-central province, they'll have their whole family speak in northern/southern/isaan dialect while the main character, who's played by an actor from bangkok, will unexplainably not have any remnants of his native dialect when he speaks even though he was born & raised in the area and often time never even left... that shit breaks the fourth wall to me, like... why even hire an actor who doesn't fit the role fully, I don't get it 😭

Cologne And Perfumes In Your Practice.
Tumblr media
Now in my previous post I spoke on spiritual colones, waters like Florida Water and their uses and while this is one way to use it, there are other ways to tap into the power of these products. When looking at colognes and perfumes, try not to see them as just fragrances. They were made from herbs, resins, and oils in an alcohol base.
Beside Florida Water, Rose Water Cologne or Kananga Water there are other colognes and perfumes that are made to be used for spirits deities and workings. It's not enough to buy a spiritual perfume and begin using it.
To get the most out of them, they need to be consecrated. This means that you need to declare what the purpose of the perfume is and going to be used for. This can be something like, "I dedicate this perfume to drawing prosperity into my life." You also need to meditate & pray over it, giving it the power to do what it's is intended for.
If you choose, you can ask your guides, angels, saints, or deities for help to make it more effective at whatever you want it to do for you. Basically you're making an holy item or spiritual item.
Colognes Perfumes As Offerings: while many deities have their own type of offering that is giving to them, these colognes could be good to be used as a wash to honor your deity or spirit. Other deities like receiving perfumes that contain their favorite ingredients like Ezurli or any love deity, that created specifically for them.
Scents Used In Your Space: Perfumes and colognes are placed on the body to give their properties to the wearer, they can be added to washes or sprinkled around the boundary of a place. Like Saint Michael.
Saint Michael for instance a perfume dedicated to him can be used to help fortify your home and protect those within it and also be used as a offering to him on his fest day. Use it as a floor wash, or sprinkling around the perimeter.
Using It In A Ritual Bath: Sometimes, adding perfume to rituals might be a good idea. If you perform a healing ritual that involves drawing a bath, for example, you may choose to add Saint Lazarus perfume to the water while praying for healing.
Working Bath For St Lazarus: Useing natural water not faucet water, you don't really know what's in it. ( Rain Water is good). Add a little St Lazarus cologne or use a St Lazarus wash or both is fine too. You can add his oil if you choose. Add that to the bowl of water, place his colored candle in the middle of the bowl and light it. This we'll get St. Lazarus attention, then pray his prayer and tell him what you need. Let it burn. After use that water as a wash by pouring it starting from the top of your head on down.
Perfumes as Spiritual Food Just as perfumes can be given as offerings to spirits, they can also be offered to mojo's, washes, dolls, crystal etc. If a liquid is called for in a ritual, often a cologne or perfume can be used or added to it to power the liquid with its properties.
List Of Some Of These Perfume/Cologne.

Graves would be such a fun uncle/babysitter 😭🥺
Off base, He probably has a big family and loves family gatherings so much, he loves seeing and catching up with all his nieces and nephews. He finds the mundane family gossip/political chats so boring and would much rather play with his nieces and nephews. He’d probably take them out on fun trips bc he wants to create unforgettable experiences with them.
When he’s on base, he misses his family a lot but has minimal contact bc of how classified his missions are. When he’s big and around other little, he pours his heart and soul into caring for them and it helps so much with his homesickness. (Especially when he’s made by Shepherd to fake his death and be forced to never see his family again whoops)
When he’s with little Soap, he’s able to keep up with Soap’s energy while equally keeping him from squealing too loudly when he gets too excited. His favourite activity w/ soap is water fights (in and out of headspace.)
With Gaz, he’ll chat endlessly with the tyke, listen to whatever thing Kyle is talking about and match Kyle’s enthusiasm about the topic. They often do puzzles or play with slime as they chat. He also doesn’t mind reading endlessly to Gaz when Gaz just wants some chill out time. (Picture Gaz leaning on Phil in the rec room couch, Phil with some glasses while reading a kids chapter book to Gaz )
He’s so gentle and affectionate to little Ghost. He’ll have Simon lay on his back and blow raspberry’s into his tummy and give him tickles. He’ll help Simon stack blocks and cheer and clap when Simon (and soap) knock down the tower, he’ll always love Simon’s giggles and coos.
ALSO He 100% makes sure that Simon doesn’t bite himself and will regularly coax him to let go of his lip/skin and replace it with a teether or a paci. (Despite him knowing how hypocritical he’s being. He just doesn’t want little Si Si biting himself till he bleeds)
HE WOULD BE AMAZING
He knows just what kiddos want, since he was around them so much for family. It's easy for him to see what the little ones want too, it's a specific look, he says. But he's going off vibes
He knows when to be gentle, or harsh. But he hasn't ever put anyone in time out, just a talking to. Explaining or showing what went wrong, or even drawing a diagram on a whiteboard to at least make it a little fun.
Graves HATES upsetting the little 141 boys, it reminds him of his nieces and nephews the way they pout, or cry. Simon's crying breaks his heart
"You're breakin' my heart, kid... Lemme dry those tears, bud."
His accent gets thicker when he's distressed, which is usually caused by the boys being upset.
HE'S A READER for sure too. Loves reading to them. And especially when the boys also interact with the book.
Playing with the boys, and taking care of them can settle him down just as much as they can make him panic. But he wants to be around them even if they cause tension sometimes. He doesn't want to lose them like he had to with his family, being in hidin ain't the easiest thing when it means not being able to hang out with the kiddos

The Fernweh Saga by @lacunafiction - Davor edition
Tumblr media
I-I think Ms. Verner doesn't like him...😳
Tumblr media
Davor "Dove" Kovač 🐝 RO: Becca Warrick
Personality: cautious // aloof // pessimistic // flirtatious (only towards Becca ...and Reese??) Traits: head // independent // resistance // believer Past affinity: math Primary ability: extrasensory awareness Past susceptibility: forward. 'it’s better to push forward. don’t look back on the past when you have new places to be and things to achieve.' <<< his motto
Tumblr media
🕊️ Fernweh: Davor lived a happy life there and didn't think about leaving in the future. Maybe for some trips, but he knew it would always be his place, his safe place... 'It was a mistake to come back here.' - that was his first thought when he tried to fall asleep on the first night in Fernweh. The nightmares came back as he thought they would. He wants to leave as soon as possible because he feels that it is not safe for Becca to be here.
🕊️ Gramps Dan: That was his gramps who taught Davor how to play the guitar. As a young child, Davor always admired him and believed he was the most intelligent person in the world. After the death of his parents and how his grandfather treated him, he was devastated and angry. He wanted answers soo badly but didn't get any. He lived loathing his grandfather ever since. The news of his passing stirred up a lot of negative emotions that Davor had previously managed to suppress. At the beginning of the story he couldn't care less about his grandfather, but because of his journal he started to believe him. Things that his granfather lived through made Davor even more angry at this messy town …but he's willing to forgive his gramps…
🐝 Becca Warrick: It was a ...funny story that brought both of them together and they look after each other ever since. He considers Becca as his precious (not in a negative-possessive way) treasure, he literally can't let anything bad happen to her. That was also she who came up with the nickname 'Dove'... (and she's literally the only person who calls him that, others wouldn't dare...). He had feelings for her for quite some time but didn't act on it... until now. Although he didn't express it, he felt very nervous about Becca being in the town where he grew up. He was curious (but also scared) about what she could think of this town. He felt like he was revealing more of himself to her…. and he forgot about any worries pretty fast, because the town started being weird as fu--.
🕊️ Reese Verner: Back then Davor was quite cheerful and enjoyed competing with Reese regularly. They teased each other a lot. Davor always thought that Reese had a crush on him, was it true tho? donut know, but he certainly had. ...why does he appear in his nightmares? Maybe the crush stage never disappeared...? Seeing him again was a nice experience, sure... but ignoring the circumstances, he is still unsure if it was worth it and is struggling with his thoughts… Would it be worth it to return to Fernweh just to see him... again? welp, good thing he doesn't have to think about it much, am I right?
🕊️ Sofia Dorran: The two of them maybe did not have a strong relationship, but he knew Sofia is the ideal person for engaging in intelligent conversations. He enjoyed spending time with her, solving the puzzles that gramps created for them both. Davor wasn't a fan of fantasy books, but she managed to change his mind about them. Davor knows that Sofia did take good care of his grandfather, but he still doesn't quite know if he's grateful for that or wished she spent her time more... valuably... He was tempted to ask Sofia to borrow that book she found in his grandfather's bedroom, but he thought better of it. It's better to leave Fernweh… Even so, his curiosity wasn't properly fed.
🕊️ James Corvin: Maybe not brothers by blood, but definitely brothers by choice. Davor treated him as if he was the brother he always wanted to have. Back then Davor always placed a high value on his family… until now. At the time, Davor tended to be more impulsive and James was usually the one who kept him from getting into trouble (which often involved Reese). It was really hard, for both of them, to see each other after so long. Their first interaction was pretty awkward... I would even say that most of their interactions were . James noticed how Davor changed the question is: for the better or worse? I don't even know. Everyone can sense, that things around them are different now, and they aren't as close as before. Will it change?
🕊️ Alek Corvin: …To say that Alek wasn't a fan of Davor would be an understatement. Was it because James spent most of his time focusing only on Davor trying to get him out of trouble? Did Alek observe any possessiveness from Davor towards James? Or maybe simply because of the bond between those two, which was truly something that others would envy and desire? Davor never considered it, especially when he left Fernweh permanently. :)) As you can imagine, Alek doesn't seem very happy about Davor's return… But he took an interest in his new friend, Becca, which did not go unnoticed by Davor and he isn't really happy about it.
🕊️ The Waitress: Oh boy, it seems that Davor has taken up a new hobby, which is glaring harshly at the waitress. He finds her mistrustful and he smells trouble. Had they met when he was younger, there may have been a slim chance of them getting along.
🕊️ Waffles!: So um… Davor has a little issue with dogs and because of that his relationship with Waffles isn't as wonderful as I wish it would be... However, I believe that with time and help from Becca, they will eventually become friends.
#actually about his scar i have this whole headcanon... featuring some...umm.. doggos and Becca... 👀 especially how they met#(Davor was always team cats but after that incident even more xD)#also ouch that naming scene it hurt me so much! but i get it ;; aaaa! Davor why are you being so problematic Waffles is wonderful!!!#it was really interesting for me to messing with Davor in nightmares and showing him Reese!! the feelings the emotions aaaa#also yeeaah Davor thought several times if it would be a good idea to come back to Re-- *cough* Fernweh... and then Becca happened...#generally speaking Davor has a keen interest in Slavic mythologies and culture particularly those from western and southern regions of-#-Europe. I imagine that his father has roots in these regions and he took great pride in his heritage. Often taking about it to Davor#...and since Sofia's a smart girl she lent Davor a fantasy book written by Slavic author who took a great inspiration from Slavic myths👼😊#yes it was enough to change Davor's mind about fantasy books XD he never really read one before he just assumed it's BORING!#and now I'm sure he will throw questions at Sofia about this book she found even more since he's staying at Fernweh... I can imagine how-#-they both are staying up late studying it and comparing their notes... it would remind Davor about the time they were kids-#-it seems that his Gramps gave them both the last puzzle to solve... will they succeed?#and ooohh that will be a hard time for James and Davor... that rejection at the end of book one wont help them im sure XD#about Davor's 'possesivenes' over James... Davor was needy that's true but he would never think about 'stealing' James from Alek or-#-'claiming' James belongs to him. I hope im not crossing a line here but in my headcanon Alek was TOTALLY jealous over their friendship#and Alek THOUGHT that Davor was receiving more attention from James 👀#//which obv isn't true because James would never allow it. Alek is always a number one in James' heart//#in mine too I love A!!!! 💖 they're a BABY#but i must say that Davor didn't really think about Alek's feelings back then. he wasn't aware how Alek could feel- that's not an excuse#super curious about book two and how his relationships with every single one of them will develop!!!#fernweh saga#oc: davor kovac#no i totally did NOT change his surname..

One of my favorite things to see is the Saintification of certain celebrities or folks within certain cultures. The best example I can think of is Dale Earnhardt Sr in the Southeast and among Nascar fans. He drove the blue and yellow number 3 wrangler and then the black number 3 Goodyear car in Nascar. His nickname was The Intimidator and he was an icon while alive. And in death he has practically become a southern Saint. Folks will say, "Raise hell, praise Dale," and "Do it for Dale," before doing anything that requires a little boost of courage. And I just think it's super neat.

Bodybuilders probably dream of a waist as narrow, veins that prominent in their biceps. It’s hard to tell in the low light, but you think you can make out serrated, ivory scars on his body; at his collarbone and hip, a few over his ribs and even one in the junction of his shoulder, now that you’re looking for such a blemish. His only flaw, it seems, something so fundamentally human.
