Ok it is time to show off my newly acquired blades. Of which there are many.
Yesterday, I got this damascus switchblade and this damascus butterfly knife. Both are things that are hard to find online, since there's varying legalities for them across the states. Both legal in Indiana tho ❤️
& a set of naruto kunai, since I've been so naruto brained recently.
And Today, I got:
A kukri! Which I wanted bc it's one of the blades you can have as Joker in p5
This damascus sword. Which is BEAUTIFUL, and probably my favorite of the bunch. She be oily, as a damascus, but she's so fuckin pretty. Just look at that hilt. I'm in love.
AND FINALLY, the longboy that's as long as my leg. Not as flashy as the damascus sword, but they're both real blades (as opposed to my prior swords, which are all cheap shit, even if they're beloved). And, again. This one is as long as my leg.
So satisfying to hold ❤️

So no clue what the phenomenon is called, but I've got that thing of "whenever you hear noises you have to repeat them" thing that some ADHD people have. It's not an always thing for me, but I do it A Lot when I'm out birding. I'm no good at it, of course, as I have a human mouth and no syrinx (a bird's voicebox), but that doesn't stop the chickadees from thinking some kid-chickadee is singing really badly in their territory, as chickadees love to throw down.
The problem is when you repeat a Barred Owl song (because ohmygod their song is amazing!) and the male of the pair thinks you sound juuuuuuuuust enough like an owl that he decides to scope your location. The amount of impulse control you gain when faced with the fact an owl would gladly smack the back of your head for singing terribly is incredible.

Chapter 37: the Sablier Arc part 3
Chapters: 35 || 36
read the manga: imgur || mangaread (ad warning)
Trapped in a scene from his ancestor Jack Vessalius's memories, Oz finds himself face to face with Glen Baskerville, head of the Baskerville cult, Jack's best friend, and the fabled mastermind of the Tragedy of Sablier. as Jack speaks to Oz from inside their soul, saying that he hopes Oz can stop him, Glen turns to face him.
Glen speaks to Jack in the memory, saying that the Will of the Abyss is disturbing the order of the world and Abyss and causing Chains to act irregularly. The Core of the Abyss doesn't regonize the Will, and it shouldn't exist. Which is why, he says, the Baskervilles must own the Will of the Abyss and its power.
He approaches Oz, towering over him, and asks if Jack will betray him.
Meanwhile, back the edge of the crater....
Elliot and Leo are ambushed by the Baskervilles. But they aren't the only threat, as Elliot realizes they're also surrounded by mutated, zombified citizens of the city.
The Baskervilles tell them they can't allow them to go any further, or they'll interrupt the others up ahead, who've all been drawn to their individual memory fragments.
Inside her own memory world, Alice wanders through the grounds of a mansion, vaguely familiar to her. She finally spots the girl who looks like her, walking beside Jack Vessalius. The pair approach a grave, and Jack takes out the pocket watch that Oz carries now, and the familar tune plays.
Jack states that the song is called Lacie, and it matches the name on the tombstone.
In Oz's own memory world, Glen stands over him. He touches Oz's face, and announces his realization that this isn't Jack... As Oz trembles, too scared to move, Glen not only calls Oz by name, he speaks the exact words that the man who had cast him into Abyss 10 years before said to Oz:
Oz's echoing shout is the perfect distraction for Xerxes Break to make his appearance, saving Elliot and Leo. they leave the situation to Pandora's legendary swordsman and take off, which Break lauds as the correct move. he tells the Baskervilles he has a lot of questions for them...
Elliot and Leo race through the crater in search of Oz, only to find him in the center of a gruesome scene.
