(me, my parents, my sister, and the baby are sitting at the kitchen table eating lunch)

baby, pointing at the light fixture over the table and signing "on": o.*

my sister: we actually can't turn that light on right now, because the lightbulb inside is burnt out! it needs a new one.

baby: ighbu.

sister: yes, lightbulb! granddaddy said after we eat he's going to climb up there on a ladder and change it, and then the light will come on!

baby: gadada! adda, uuu! ighbu o!

sister: exactly!

baby, signing "on" and pointing at the light and then my dad, with increasing urgency: GADADA ADDA UUUU. O.

my sister: we're going to finish eating first though, ok?

baby: nonono. O. gadada adda uuu.

[a split second goes by]

baby, pointing to himself: ba. adda uuu. ighbu.

me: you're going to climb the ladder and change the lightbulb yourself?

baby: dzyeah. *pointing to the buckle where he is buckled into the high chair* ububu.

me: unbuckle you? so you can change the lightbulb?

baby, highly businesslike: dzyeah.

*pronounced like "on" without the n

people always talk about evil clones like oooh a dark mirror oohh what if you saw what are cruel person you were/are capable of becoming. and well yes but what if you were the evil clone. what if you looked in the mirror and what you saw was so bright it blinded you. what if you had to know exactly how good you could have been.

It says so much about Grian’s character that he is willing to bend every single rule and to go on deadly quests for his allies, but never once has it occurred to him that he is a dark green name and letting Skizz or Mumbo get a kill on him would save them far easier than any tnt minecart traps or cobwebs or diamond armour ever could.

On the one hand it speaks to that rat bastard every-man-for-himself side we all know he has. In the same way that he can never bring himself not to try to win for a second time, the thought of willingly giving up a life is so foreign to him that it doesn’t even occur to him as an option. Of course he isn’t going to just let someone kill him, Grian is a survivor.

But on the other hand? On the other hand it speaks of hope. It speaks of the idea that if he fights hard enough, if he is clever enough, if he can just stick it out and use his lives to solve this puzzle then there is a way for him to save his loved ones. There is a way for all of them to live.

Beast Fables - Megafauna of the Continents Part 2.

Part 2 of jotting down the great Megafauna of my Beast Fables setting, featuring the regions of Samudria and Ifranika.

Samudria is essentially Fantasy Southeast Asia and Oceana, and all the island critters that essentially call it home. Because of this, evolution takes a lot of turns, including here in a (relatively) low fantasy setting.

Ifranika meanwhile is a continent filled to the brim with Megafauna, from giant birds to the very last Deinotheres. However, it's also a lesson in that, just because it's a fantastical setting, doesn't mean all the animals above are thriving. The raketusk elephant (Deinotherium), is not only the last of its genus and line, but dwindling in numbers.
