#Tiny Dots

[bifflesnitch]

Ever since I was at least 5 years old I can remember seeing thousands of tiny, multicoloured dots flying around my vision like TV static. They are much more noticable in the dark and when I blink or close my eyes.

There's aso always been a ring of more prominent redish dots in the centre of my vision that moved with my eyes.

When I was little I thought I was seeing molecules in the air after learning about them on an episode of Magic School Bus.

Turns out there is actually a name for this phenomenon:

CEV - Closed Eye Visualisations

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closed-eye_hallucination

Althout apparently that is only supposed to be seen when you're concentration and dissapear when you're not but mine is just alwasy there so it could also be

VSS - Visual Snow Syndrome

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_snow_syndrome

The little dots are called phosphenes and theres been some really interesting research done on them and the different causes for them http://www.oubliette.org.uk/Three.html

Whatever it is, its harmless and we don't fully know why some people have it more than others but it's nice to know I'm not the only one. I actually found a quora thread with a bunch of people talking about there experiences with it.

So yeah. The more you know.

soap's whole deal being sniper and demolitions gets me going bc on the surface they sound so different but when you get into it, you realise it's bc soap's smart

sniping is all math; calculating distances and wind interference and bullet drop. something i think people overlook is he was listed as a sniper first so it can be implied that he's better at it than demolitions. he does more sniping in both campaigns than demolitions work; in capture or kill, ghost specifically calls on him to take down the aq snipers

and demolitions is math with a hit of chemistry; knowing what mixes with what, knowing how much to use, recognising environmental factors and adjusting accordingly. it's not just about the boom; so much work goes into contained/ planned explosions. especially when having enough power for a breacher charge and not bringing down the whole building is the difference between mission success and failure

the chemical bombs he makes in alone can't just be any old cleaners, they have to have the correct reaction to each other; he just knew off the top of his head what would mix with what to create what reaction. he would also potentially have to recognise them by sight/smell bc they would’ve been written in spanish

soap would also have to know architecture; recognising structural integrity and weak points so he knows exactly where to plant a charge to bring it down and how it'll come down

he has an incredible soldier's mind people just forget that bc he's sociable which itself is a skill

we know he tends to buck against orders he doesn't agree with like when he pushes back against ghost in capture or kill and shepherd when he tells them to release hassan

he gets closer to people and sees if he can trust them and that's when he follows them without question. really think about how he talks to alejandro and rudy; he asks about their home and alejandro's family and rudy's relationship with him. those aren't questions you ask a stranger after a few hours of knowing them. that's not even touching on his relationship with ghost

he also deliberately brings people of higher ranks down to his level; talking informally with ghost and giving him a shoulder punch, addressing alejandro (a colonel!!) by his first name and rudy by his nickname despite literally just meeting them. he personalises all of them and it’s in direct opposition to the reason most characters do that; it’s not due to insubordination or lack of respect, the more he respects and trusts someone, the more casual he is with them

he digs into people; he wants to know what makes them tick and that determines if he can one, trust them and two, follow their orders. once he decides that, he's the ultimate soldier; he bleeds loyalty which makes him vicious when that loyalty is taken for granted

he isn't naive or bubbly or insecure; he's an incredibly smart and aware soldier. he's aggressive and bloodthirsty and loyal and intuitive and i love him so much

The Spanish dub for the intro for Tiny Toon Adventures has an adorable ending 😭😭

[on-the-open-range]

We're still working on character designs so they are largely inaccurate for the warners and max, but this shows age and height comparisons! Character descriptions under read more!

We also included characters that appear outside the farm! Bugs Bunny is the Sheriff of the nearby city. He likes to take on challenges to show off his wit and pawns off smaller outlaws on his deputy, Daffy Duck. At night time, he goes undercover as a burlesque dancer to gain information about criminal whereabouts in town. Babs and Buster Bunny (no relation) live in a town (turning on city) several hours travel away. They both work for the sheriff and deputy. Buster is a deputy in training and Babs does clerical issues and cleans up buster's messes. She has a gun but doesn't use it as much. (Although she IS a better shot than Buster.) The other six characters are various people in the small town close to the ranch, or in the larger city. In order, left to right: Ms. Perla is a middle age dog who works in the same saloon as Mr. Bentley, she is a very serious woman and tends to handle the more complicated costumers but can be very sweet, she lives in a small house in town with her cousin Ms. Katara and Mr. Argus. Ms. Katara works as store clerk in town, she goes to see Ms. Perla whenever she has time during the day, even though she gets scolded, a very enthusiastic woman and very friendly. Mr. Argus works as carpenter in town, he's a widower but a hardworking man that tends to get in trouble with outsiders if they look suspicious enough but a very nice man otherwise, tries to keep Ms. Perla and Ms. Katara safe. Mr. Bentley is a jolly middle aged dog who tends the saloon in town. He always seems to have some long winded story for patrons and enjoys playing the piano at the saloon when he has extra help and he has the time. Mrs. Flame owns the small general store in town. She's a widow but she's very kind and while she doesn't really know the warners, she tends to very secretly give Yakko a discount when he comes in to buy things and hopes he won't notice. Ms. Belle is a stocker that helps Ms. Flame in her shop on delivery days. She's excitable and boisterous and loves making friends, but she's sworn off men for an unknown reason.

my contribution to briggsbek nation. headcanons included under the cut

headcanons! just a few off the top of my head nothing much 🐊🐻

�� briggsy isnt one for petnames, but is huge on nicknames. (Exhibit A : Yorgi).

• Torbek doesnt really do petnames either, but (like the yuletide oneshots) calls briggsy captain. briggsy enjoys this.

• briggsy gets the giggles inside whenever torbek says he did something cool. if nobody was around he'd probably be pumping a fist in the air.

• ACTUALLYYY in my brain they meet for more than just yuletide sorryyyyyyy ik some people think its a cute once a year idea but i like to think they have little outings after making plans on their stupid walkie talkie things or whatever they use i dont remember . rocky talkie or something whatever. just small hangouts they never really do a lot. both of their lives have. Quite a Bit going on so it isnt often they do this but they do. a breather from everything snd everyone else

• Briggsy "Excuse me! He Asked for No Pickles!" Kratch

• torbek lifts briggsy up sometimes. helps him reach things or shows him something cool looking

• theyre both losers. this isnt a headcanon i just wanted to add it.

• Havent met eachothers party yet........ they r nervous. Torbek thinks the mask lady is spooky and Briggsy doesnt like the way "the little alligator fuck" looks at him, so theyve avoided introductions so far.

I'm recovering from this semester, so I tried to draw some character interactions that I had in mind

What would Y/N do is Orca!Eclipse was having a panic attack?

He would try to hide from your sights and deal with it on his own, panicking and struggling with the squeezing pressure in his chest that makes him wonder if his heart will simply stop and he will float belly up, dead. He can't be seen as weak. That's not attractive. That's not going to make you stay. But you would find him anyway.

You're bewildered and alarmed watching the orca siren flounder as if he were under attack, but he couldn't be. He's the apex predator of the Arctic. You finally beckon and perhaps even touch him when he thrashes beside the ice. Your gloves slide down his slick skin but you take him by the face and hold him still, speaking softly to him. You don't know what's wrong. You only know his eyes are wide and wild, darting everywhere but you.

Softly, calmly, you tell him everything is alright. He's safe. He's going to be okay. You're here. You don't want him to be scared or hurt or alone. His breaths are off-tempo and hitched like he's drowning above the sea. Your thumbs softly stroke his cheek while he slowly clings to you, his claws pressing so tight to your coat that you're afraid he's going to puncture the fabric. Instead, he slowly drags himself onto land and pulls you against his wet chest. This time, you don't fear it so much.

He curls tightly around you, clinging to you like a child. Even stranger, he's silent. He's so terribly quiet and you fear that he's gone into shock or something of that nature. You keep talking to him, telling him things about photography and other places you visit, anything to keep him grounded with your voice. You don't think you make any sense or you sound boring, but when you pause for a few seconds too long, his arms begin squeezing you. You continue, and he gradually uncoils from whatever is gripping him.

You ask if he wants to talk about it. He says no. He just wants to hold you. He begs you to stay, to not leave him. He doesn't want to be alone again.

So you stay with him in his arms until he's almost back to old himself.

i really like the idea of quintessence ghouls having literal stars in their eyes.

i dont mean their sclera, i mean their pupils, when they move them there are actually constellations you can see in them, and the constellations change a little bit everyday

A hint of a continuation of mershark Eyefestation...

I am weak to many eyes, and genuinely Eyefestation already has some siren vibes with the whole mimicking voices and talking in your mind and trying to get you to look/come to it.

Words & Extra Info:

Anatomical left side of the face has eyes clustered closer together than the right side

Anatomical right head-fin is torn, though who knows from what

Layers and rows of sharp teeth, enough that more are breaking through the front of the gums

The hands are anatomically more similar to a whale-fin's bone structure than a human's

Fins similar to pectoral fins on a shark have grown on the arms

If you look at the model there are the beginnings of extra dorsal fins compared to a bull shark

There are more eyes in wounds and the gills as well

The pectoral shape on the humanoid half is formed by extra gills (eyes are closed)

The long hair can act similar to whiskers, alongside covering the green glow of eyes for ambush

Not Visible:

Freckle-like markings on the face that are actually spiracles (a shark's electroreception organ)

How fuckin HUGE this dude is, swamps a lot of things in size actually

How torn the fins actually are due to simplication of sketches lol
