Does Goku's face get flushed after he drinks a bit of alcohol?

Goku cannot hold his liquor.

He can manage two full drinks before he gets into a giggle fit, he is an absolute giggly drunk and will spew words half the time with no real meaning. He usually avoids drinking because he knows he's a lightweight. His face will be flushed visibly and easily to see.

Black is presented a case file over this particular country bumpkin

"What is so special about this earthling? What sway do they hold to have even the likes of Cell oblige their meaningless existence?"

[risingsouls]

"Aaaaand how's my lil' sugar booger doin' today? Ya know, I've heard many great things about ya through the ol' grape vine! Everyone says yer lookin' stronger by the day with all the extra training you've been gettin'!... T-Though, I hope ya still got time for your old man? I could always give ya a couple tips from Earth's strongest here!"

" Daaaad, come on. I'm not a little girl anymore! " Despite her chagrin with the embarrassing nickname, her father's boisterous nature and unwavering pride in her caused a smile to cut through her grimace.

" You know I've always got time for you, dad. And I always welcome tips to help me improve. Just...can you not call me sugar booger? It's embarrassing... "

Valentine's Application / accepting

The faintest of citrus hues soon spreads like wildfire, intensifying the further she considers the package as a whole. He is, of course, condescending, curt, and rudely straightforward. Surely, this would skew her consideration in some capacity, make her think twice about his offer. Who would accept something this crass, after all?

Yet, certain answers pique her curiosity. Even in his gruffness, he knew how to make her squirm. Ignoring the various scenes that play behind her eyes (and for good reason; he can tell when she's riled), his application brings with it even more intrigue. Why he bothered to send one in in the first place, she didn't quite know, though he answers that question rather concisely in his response. I am interested in you, he said. Why does that make her heart flutter? Damn him. In truth, he doesn't have to do a damn thing to convince or impress her -- she's already within his grasp.

Half-lidded eyes fall to the floor, brows creased and pensive while her fair skin still burns a sun-like heat. She pretends to contemplate, but she knows her answer -- they both do.

❝You're willing to set aside time in your busy schedule to spend with me?❞ She sounds more hopeful, more grateful, than she expected to. So much for keeping a biting, sarcastic tongue as a ways of showing indifference; she couldn't seem to help herself. Not when it comes to him. Her arms hold one another, keeping close as though guarded, or strained.

❝Alright,❞ she takes a breath, steadying the fierce rattling in her chest. Why the idea of being in his company on such a romantic day is appealing to her, she could hardly deign to guess -- but it is. ❝I accept. I'll… see you then,❞ her eyes lift to meet his, trepidation glimmering within them but beneath that lies a glint of excitement. Before she can think to bite her tongue, she adds, ❝I'm looking forward to it.❞

And now she wishes she'd never opened her mouth, her lips forming a tight line and her cheeks becoming just that much hotter. God damn him.

💭 + Gerudo traditions you enjoy or dislike?

Muse Musings || Open!

" Hm...I suppose I enjoy most of our traditions. My favorite is probably the tournament we hold to honor V'riqi, the Goddess of the Sand during her yearly festival. It features all arrays of combat from swords and spears to hand to hand and archery. Most of the other festivals feature dancing and, while it's fun, I prefer the dance of battle. It gets the adrenaline running more. It's all in good fun, and we only use practice weapons, but it's fun to watch and compete in."

A thoughtful hum and a pause, then she continued. " I'm not sure there are any traditions I dislike. The closest probably the male becoming king thing, but I trust the process we have in place to make sure they're capable and ready to lead us before they are crowned that we've utilized for the last few kings. It at least feels a little less obnoxious that way. "

[saiyanandproud]

"I find that expressing myself can be exceedingly difficult, but with you around, it's not so bad."

"As for Conton City, I've never been there. I can't say for certain if I'd enjoy it. I also suppose anyone you'd dislike are natural enemies of mine."

"Ah, don't be too hard on yourself, Cyto!"

"You can be funny and you're certainly expressive -- your face is, especially when you tease me. And that little doodle there is expressive too! As for Conton, heh, everyone loves it, so I bet you would too!"

"Not quite sure what the issue with my independence is there, though..."

@sleepytv asked: ⚔️ VS One angry farmer (Deciding if she should join the Cooler force by testing his strength, of course) - anemcia

Send ⚔️ for a vs. battle quote to your muse

Battle intro: "Ah. So, you wish to join the Cooler Forces, Honeydew? How unexpected...very well, then. I shall test your capabilities to see if you have what it takes to serve my Empire."

Victory: "An expected outcome, but nevertheless, you have proven your tenacity and valor. I believe there is a place for you in my army."

Defeat: "Impossible! I, the Emperor of the Universe, felled by an Earthling?!"

Assist: "Keep your guard up, farmer. I won't always be around to save you."

Taunt: "If this is the best you can do, then perhaps you're better off remaining a simple farmer."

Reacting to Taunt: "Confident, are we? We'll see how long that bravado lasts you, Earthling."

Tie: "Remarkable. To think, an Earthling of all things could match the strength of an Arcosian. Might I offer you a position in the Armored Squadron?"

Perfect Victory: "Is that it? All that boasting, and nothing to show for it? How disappointing. You're not worthy of joining the Cooler Forces...in fact, you're not even worth killing. Go run back home to your farm."

@Anonymous asked: Stop trying to get Vegeta/Risingsouls to drink just so you can sleep with him! [Apparently this was sent to my main @sleepytv so... I'll just answer here...]

"...The hell you goin' on about? Why would I force that jerk to do anythin' when I haven't got one ounce of interest in em'? Are you a special kind of stupid? Sounds to me like yer desperate for his attention. Why are you here then? Go ahead an' bother him so you can get yerself killed, idiot. At least you can't annoy me after he tears ya a new asshole."

Case Study - D&D Winners Research

Deforestation is not a fiction

Advertising agency – Strike

Production company – Fix Studios

This animation was produced on behalf of Greenpeace. The video's goal is to raise awareness about deforestation by demonstrating how intensive animal farming and the consumption of meat and dairy products are the main contributors to this problem.

Despite being computer-generated, the technique is intended to resemble stop-motion clay animation. The concept works well since it presents itself as a light-hearted and kid-friendly cartoon, but the sombre themes about the realities of excessive animal farming and deforestation is cleverly contrasted.

Gun Stats

Advertising Agency – Alma

Ad agency Alma used actual data to develop several gun forms for the Change the Ref campaign, which was started by the parents of Joaquin Oliver, a victim of the Parkland High School mass shooting. This well-thought-out campaign aims to draw attention to and examine the US gun culture while reminding regular Americans of these often-overlooked or unknowable figures.

One star cookbook

Advertising agency - ‿ and us

Design agency - No One

Production company – BlackBox

Deliveroo used actual, one-star reviews from customers whose food orders were damaged during delivery to create a spoof cookbook. These orders have been comically recreated by Deliveroo, who presents them as authentic recipes that you can cook and names the food in a way that indicates how it has been ruined. The photos that go with it are reminiscent of the type that you might see in an upscale gourmet cookbook. Seeing these ruined meals captured on camera is novel and refreshing.

Magpie Studio

Sleepy TV

SleepyTV is a health and wellness channel that was created to aid weary viewers in falling asleep. The in-room or in-flight on-demand service was developed specifically for the tourism sector. It provides audiences with a blend of traditional storytelling, yoga, breathwork, and guided meditation in settings where it might be difficult to relax. The logo, which was created to be experienced in motion, simulates the blinking pattern of tired eyes. This small gesture instantly establishes a relatable and recognisable shorthand for the channel.

Unity jumper

To celebrate the increasing global collaboration amongst visual designers, San Francisco Design Week launched CommUNITY – a group exhibition and silent auction hosted at its annual gala. Magpie was asked to produce a piece for the show that embodied the notion that we are all related and unified within the design industry. That two heads are always better than one

Senser spirits packaging

Senser Spirits has developed a line of non-alcoholic Plant Spirits that are designed to uplift your spirits without impairing your judgement. Each spirit promotes a certain emotional state that is often associated with alcohol use. From a growing sense of confidence (Blend One), to feeling sociable (Blend Two) and full of energy (Blend Three). The story on Magpie's packaging draws a parallel between the transformation of your emotional state and that of a spirit animal.

Imagine campaign

Papermaker Robert Horne was keen to get the creative industry's attention with the launch of its newest paper, Imagine. To appeal to a design-savvy audience, Magpie developed a marketing strategy that suggests everything is possible with enough ingenuity. They created a series of intriguing and inspiring posters using seemingly impossible illustrations.

Gavin Martin vegetable ink mailer

Award-winning printer Gavin Martin Associates was excited to announce the introduction of vegetable inks and reassure clients that their exacting standards would not be sacrificed. The solution offered by Magpie Studio was a giant pumpkin with a first-place rosette to hold all the details. The choice of a giant pumpkin was effective as it was both relevant to what the product was made of and displayed its quality.

Sarah Grundy artist identity

Sarah Grundy is a make-up artist who’s worked in film and TV for over 30 years. The objective for Magpie was to establish an identity that would attract the attention of upcoming industry professionals. They created a campaign-led brand that made the most of her ability to make the unbelievable believable. Every component—from bearded ladies to babies with tattoos—is a striking example of her talent.

Bandido coffee

Bandido is an independent coffee brand for free-spirited individuals. Magpie Studio produced a design that uses the letter 'B' to embody the brand's disruptive, playful approach. The letter 'B' is presented in a way that alludes to a bandit mask. I admire this branding design as it shows how often the most creative solutions can be the simplest.

💭 + Vegeta, what are Saiyan traditions you enjoy or dislike?

Muses Musing || Open!

" Nappa would probably be the better person to ask about this sort of thing. Frieza and his father had done a decent job of squashing true Saiyan culture and tradition by the time I came along. " Vegeta grunted, but contemplated the question. " Though it was banned by Frieza shortly after I witnessed one, probably because a few of the bouts got...a little more out of hand than usual and some soldiers ended up dead, there was a competition held to honor the royal family every seven years on the day of the full moon. It took place in the wastes far from civilization, and lasted all day until the moon rose. We then transformed into our Oozaru forms beneath our own moon. It was something of a ritual, I suppose. A chaotic one, but I liked it well enough. It was entertaining. "

>Goku Black enters the chat

The very slight and instant indication of his presence is enough for her cheeks to light aflame, covering her features in the recognizable bright orange that is the dead giveaway of her heritage. Thoughts immediately surface and images follow, various sights and scenes intermingling that, were they ever to be spoken, would undoubtedly cause irreparable damage to her reputation and likely her psyche what with how embarrassed she would be. But, oh, how tempting they are, the ever-present carrot dangling before her eyes and offering an allurement almost too tantalizing to refuse--

she stops there. it’s too much. 

she has to go, she cannot be here--

You know those little bunny sweets Cleo got recently? Have you ever thought about feeding those directly to him? Maybe then he'll be encouraged to eat if it's something you can give him. Plus I think it's an adorable date idea ;3c

Send my muse anons about their relationships (but even non-anons are fine!)

"Tsk. Please. Cleo is not a child. He took care of himself fine, he doesn't need me to feed him -- if he wants to eat those buns, he will."

"I mean, what do you expect me to do? Take one, lean towards his mouth, tell him to say Aaahm, holding it for him to bite it from my fingers and..."

"... And..."

"..."

"CLEEEOOO?! DO YOU STILL HAVE SOME OF THOSE BUNNY BUNS LEFT?!"
