Carry me home

[gravitysaint]

now that i’m hearing the glitches they are quickly becoming a source of comedy to me

Sam thinks he can take care of himself? nuh-uh, get glitched, assigned wet cat/baby shrimp/loserboy by the CCTV

Gwen “hasn’t been arsey”? lol, glitched again, called out for bitchiness by the Watcher

I like to think Hiccup has whole 'conversations' with Toothless that are essentially incomprehensible to anyone but them (they consist of little human language–mostly draconic noises and body language as well as signals/cues specific to Hiccup and Toothless) the other riders are used to it at this point, but a lot of people are very much not and find it incredibly confusing.

Its started a lot of rumors of Hiccup being some 'dragon whisperer' that can actually speak to and command them and the other riders tease him about it relentlessly because he despises the rumors and always tries to correct them. Like every time they're brought up he'll say something along the lines of "No. If u actually pay attention to and connect with them, adapting to their way of communication isn't hard. I don't actually speak with them ur just not observant enough" and is constantly ignored

(This is kind of a follow-up to another post but I didn't want to tack it onto a rb)

Here's some worldbuilding advice, mainly aimed at fantasy writers, but scifi also applies:

Do your characters (or a beloved companion animal/transportation creature) have wings and fly a lot?

Cool!

Are your winged characters who fly a lot ambush predators who rely on stealth to take down prey? Like owls?

No?

Then here's a fun world-building thing to think about:

How loud are their flapping wings, and how do your characters communicate with each other when they're flying if it is too loud to speak normally, (assuming your characters are not telepathic?)

Do your characters have a unique form of sign language they use while flying in line of sight of each other? How do they draw each others attention to sign to them?

Do they use a series of whistles and chirps made with the mouth to communicate?

Do they have bells, or drums, or some other percussion-based system of communication?

if you answered 'yes' to any of the above three options, you can break it down even more:

Is this flight-language something everyone is taught/knows, or do only specialized groups use it?

Are there different flight-languages or dialects between different communities/settlements? How about age groups?

Is it something that is used commonly during non-flight situations as a way to casually abbreviate speech? Or is that seen as taboo, rude, unlucky, 'low-brow', or sacrilegious?

In what situations could your characters use this form of communication to their advantage?

anyways here's a little BBC documentary clip demonstrating the sound + size difference in owl wings in flight vs other birds :D

It's a fun watch even if you're not writing about winged characters, just some fun, neat science!

I had a shrink appointment today and while I could not see it I knew my doc was going through the five stages of grief while I explained my fool proof strategy for doing my t shots despite a crippling fear of needles: By abusing my vastly more crippling fear of being an inconvenience.

My mother and I play phasmophobia together every week. she usually has a pretty limited time to do this bc she's like. a doctor and a college professor whos always busy. So I asked her to just. hold me to doing them. We don't start playing until the shot is done. so my needle fear doesn't matter because now it's Wasting™ her time and I have to do it quick. Using one neurosis to defeat another.

It's a horrible coping mechanism because it's feeding the inconvenience fear, but it is definitionally a coping mechanism.

How does you're robot f/o feel when you talk about upgrading or cleaning your laptop or anything like that

Are they horrified or a little turned on when they see you opening up the back of your laptop to clean it and add new thermal paste, how do they feel about watching you swap sticks of RAM, what do they think when you unplug the fans and pull them out to clean the dust out of them
