#the forest wants to eat you

[faejilly]

not the sea!

from this poll by @toushindai: Which natural feature thirsts most for human blood?

#the sea does not Care#the forest will devour you to feed the roots after the wolves have picked your bones clean (via @cheesiestart-redux)

#not the sea!#the sea doesn't give a shit when you die in the ocean it's not to malice or desire#it's the cold indifference of the ravenously greedy#the ocean is out here consuming continents you aren't even a blip on its radar#the forest loves you on the other hand#the forest will drink up your blood and entwine new life with your bones#until you are one and the same#poll#i have unexpectedly strong opinions about this#and for the depths of the earth...i feel like your bones mean more#the blood is just what comes first#and I'm not sure it cares either way (via @awaylaughing)

#the forest requires somekind of food--either to indulge in or survive off of. both are valid and known reasons.#the underbrush shall pick off your skin. the animals your flesh. the trees your blood. and the fungi your bones. (via @iamverynormalaboutocs)

#because the sea doesnt thirst but it does swallow whole#the mountains have no need for blood but it will invite your bones#the night sky only observes#the sun is blind#the depths of the earth of crave it but will never get a taste#the river is too busy feeding the sea#the desert can't taste#and the lake has had more than its fill of it#no it is the forest#it is the root that drinks eagerly as the blood seeps into the dirt (via @minimelo)

#the forest#takes your blood to make its offspring grow strong#you're watering the roots with your life#also all the dark rituals happen in the forest for a reason (via @sarcasticsciencefictionwriter)

#things in the sea may feed on your body but the sea is ambivalent#it doesnt care about your blood#your blood would be just another drop#the earth however#the earth demands everything back which it gives (via @playful-bi)

#most of these you are just too insignificant for them to want specifically your blood#the sea doesn’t want blood it wants to swallow you whole as do many of these#the forest though? the forest wants to hunt you and eat you and leave your blood sprayed across the branches#the flesh gnawed off your bones (via @thegreatgaydragon)

#forest#like the sea is imo the most likely to kill you but not because it thirsts for blood#your carry the sea with you that's why we have so much salt in us because our ancestors left the sea but brought it with them#it will take you back and it might be violent but it's not thirsty#the desert will kill you WITH thirst not because IT thirsts#the forest does thirst#but I actually like that about it? it's alive.#the roots are thirsty#the creatures in it are hungry#it's alive enough to thirst for human blood#anyway this is part of why I want to be buried in the woods I WANT the trees to eat me someday#although like. preferably when I have died of causes other than being exsanguinated by the forest. (via @teaandinanity)

#poetry in the tags y'all #I should be working #and yet I did this collection instead #BECAUSE THEY'RE RIGHT AND THEY SHOULD SAY SO #the sea accepts its due #the forest wants to eat you #also tea's tags made me laugh #so yk #*gigglesnort*

My partner Sarah gave me a very small witch. We took her on a rainy walk in the autumn woods Sunday.

i thought maybe the swtor fever had abandoned me forever but i'm standing at the cash register going crazy over kotfe-era sav again

#''i cant believe you guys are making me eat all this pizza'' ''MEGAN NO'' vine #except her friends do indeed want her to eat all that pizza i mean lead the eternal alliance #in my version of events satele and marr's mandatory forest excursion plays out a little more slowly and with more discussion #she does make a lightsaber but not before she cries herself out and shouts at master satele and then calms down and has some soup... #oc: savtas thom

Take the hunter, spare the village...

#I will never get tired of drawing Kanai being scary in the woods!!!! #It is my favorite thing!!!!!! #giant forest spirit monster wants to eat you!!! #to be clear the zatel is in just as much danger as the trapper #some Kanai don't have a problem with trappers taking zatel and other furbearers on their territory #but most find it distasteful and will either discourage it by destroying traps #or by uh more violent means #the phrase 'take the hunter spare the village' is a common phrase used to justify eating humans #essentially means to discourage further hunting in a territory by disappearing the hunters #so that the problem doesn't escalate #if you let too many hunters take on your territory you may find the rest of the village coming in after #expanding farming foraging hunting disrupting etc #and if it gets bad enough well... perhaps you'd have to do something more drastic eh? so take the hunter spare the village #not to say eating people is justified but we'll get to that in book iv #tmatb

enough discussion of how our little beverages should be free. we’ve moved past that. now it’s time to talk about how stone fruit should be free so i can eat 50 peaches in a single sitting like my heart craves

#also berries so i can eat handfuls of raspberries #you might say this is possible and trust me ive braved the thorns of wild brambles to get my berries before #my moment of greatest joy include finding massive wild blueberry patch while camping and also when my job involved lots of time in forest #and we took our break in a sun warmed patch of ripe wineberries #however 1) i live in a city now 2) wild raspberries are much rarer than their invasive counterpart 3) i want free no thorn related injuries #i did find a wild blackberry (?) bush near my apartment #however i fear that it may not actually be blackberries and/or pesticides

Yoshi always looks so unfortunate next to Nefja but he tries.

#yoshi #nefja #can you believe there was actual snow!? #nefja wanted to eat like half of the forest's snow

[childofgears]

person who loves red wine, whiskey, black coffee, and dark chocolate: yes I ate a lot of dirt and sniffed hand sanitizer as a kid, how could you tell?

#et cetera #self callout post btw #why do you think i kin the strange forest girl #i LOVED dirt especially flowers with clumps of dirt on the roots #sometimes my mouth would go numb and i would freak the fuck out but i never told my parents or anythibg #bc i didnt want them to yell at me for eating flowers and dirt

[mythicandco]

I need a parasitic fungus to rupture my windpipe RIGHT NOW.

#tw body horror #I guess #let that shit in my veins. I wanna be a carrier of spores until my body inevitably rots too much to move anymore #I wanna collapse in a sunny patch of grass in a clearing in a forest somewhere and lie dormant until someone new comes along #I want a horde of animal zombies to trail behind me. there are mushrooms growing out of their eyes and they make easy prey #but whatever eats them has ingested the fungus. and so the cycle continues #rot and decay and life #forever and ever until the heat death of the sun. you understand. of course.

[creative-but-hairy-man]

My first inktober drawing because I was too lazy until now.

a forest where a person eating tree calls people by pretending to be a leprechaun.

Painted entirely by school markers, and honestly it's better on photo, but it isn't that bad as well!

#inktober #leprechaun #forest #lil monster #a silli billy #who only wants to eat people #I was actually kinda proud of myself for making the artist thing where you decrease detail when things ate further away

[tvrningout-a]

also ( yes i’ll start packing soon ) i so badly wanna bring out my morally grey witch/shapeshifter/nightmare fuel creature who is just so chill and helpful until she’s not

#i can’t decide what she is bc originally she was gonna be a huldra but! i associate her with crows and ravens #and huldras don’t have anything to do with those so i gotta brainstorm #but pls know i imagine her in a medieval-esque setting and she’s so nice if not intimidating #to the people who wander into her neck of the forest and she’ll be all ominous #‘careful you don’t know what’s lurking in these woods :)’ #but give you directions and food asdfg #buuuut she also maybe kinda kills and/or eats people who deserve it #villagers find her lil home and ask her to eat mark and she’s like k without question #‘do you wanna know what he did??’ #‘must be pretty bad if you traipsed into the spooky woods to ask a creature to kill him so nah’ #listen……… i’ve wanted to write her for YEARS pls enable me #get ready to ramble | ooc #okay i’m packing i promise 😭

[rosenfey]

ah yes, autumn (derogatory). wake me up when it's spring again

#ambie.txt #I'm literally NOT made for autumn / winter like. at all #I need warm weather constant sunlight to be relatively stable #I already have a depression I don't need seasonal depression on top of that #and the days are getting shorter and the wind is more chilly and I feel the absolute dread creeping over me #like yeah several months of feeling even more tired than usual and being sad and groggy and half alive #because its windy chilly dark and cold #I want to cry so much I hate autumn and winter so damn much #they make me feel miserable. I miss wearing sundresses and straw hats and bathing in lakes #and walking barefoot in a forest and eating strawberries #now it's just bulky sweaters and feeling cold no matter what I do #and it's not just the usual cold but a cold that creeps right into your bones and makes you shiver and feel helpless and miserable #fuck autumn fuck winter. I want the sun back #I want to cry :))))

[thepigeonsopinion]

Ello weebs, beebs, and the local geeys!

So I was in class, and I started to wonder about the things that have made me cry in the past (don't judge me), mainly movies. That eventually brought me to the conclusion of anime movies that have made me cry. But I am not sure which anime movie truly broke me, so to end this debate in my head I'm making a poll about it.

To be honest there are probably more sad anime movies I could've put into this poll, but there was not enough space. Anyway, hope to see everyone's opinions on this matter and I would also like to get more suggestions on anime movies that can make me bawl my eyes out.

Anyway! I hope everyone has a great rest of their day or night!

Also. . . vanilla extract :)

i honestly cannot stay here ‘cause i need 2 be somewhere where if i walk a little, there is a chance i could see a coyote or some cows

#like i know there's an element of the random in the city + i love that so much but everybody wants 2 mitigate it anyway. you're not supposed #2 live in a city for the danger of it u know? i don't care so much about unexplored human connections as i care about the unmatchable beauty #of a forest that's a couple steps away from eating you alive––human connection or not u know? i like casual danger i think + a danger that's #unmoved by pity #i mean i think about that cat i befriended who was probably killed while it waited for me one night. u end up having 2 be so careful about #what u love + what the consequences of loving another creature are. i think it confirms the beliefs i had 2 hold in childhood so it feels #comforting. i'm made for a place like that.

#raising my chin at old winter’s god as he makes himself comfortable. he’s so bashful when he knows he isn’t worshipped #he’s an old friend even if he is the wolf at the door. the terror of him— it rattles the bones it really does #i imagine a lesser man would have let the old sod kill them. but you can’t be doing that— it isn’t even really what he wants #you don’t just leave gods like that. you can’t— you fashion one another. a primitive god like that can’t ever disappear #but he watches me eat and there’s the most curious look on his face. you know? #i know it sounds mad. mad it is. but he comes in self-effacing like a scorned hound and i nod at him #the fire in him. the way he could crush me with a look. and yet and yet and yet #toothy bastard. but i like knowing that we are on such equal terms now #again i believe a different pagan would aim to carve him out entirely. but it wouldn’t be right #but i turn to him midsentence and he tilts his head with mine. strange one-time ever-time lover mine. horned thing. nameless Him #no. well. lots of gods in these forests of mine. #well. wouldn’t you like to know

idk if any of you guys know abt the video game the path but apparently jarboe made the music for it :D

Sitting in an airport as my plane is very very delayed, thinking about dumbass media and the ways I would rewrite it into something far more interesting

#airport #the walking dead #i sit here in this uncomfy seat #thinking about how that show would have been so much more diverting if it focused more on survival than the petty drama #like yo... i wanna see those urbanities have a crisis about how to eat food they forage #i want somebody to vomit and panic #or Daryl just watching the chaos unfold while Rick thinks he's Bear Grills #humans murdering humans? nah i want humans having to fight wild predator animals for fresh meat #also... neagan seemed cool but he was absolutely 90 percent showboat #dumb bitch would have died if you dumped his ass in a forest
