Prompt 338
So the GIW is the Ghost Investigation Ward and not the Ghost Extermination Ward, yes? Hear me out, hm?
See, it’s really hard to study ecto-entities when they’re going all over in and out of the world. Really hard! And of course they aren’t like, sentient, studies for years before the boom in this one town showed this! But, the overgrown not-birds (they’re still debating that) are really hard to watch doing their natural thing when they naturally mimic people around them!
So! They got this idea, right? Their operatives can capture some! They’ve even made enclosures based off of what they currently know! It’s like containing crows, down to the mimicry & puzzle solving just er, with opposable thumbs and intangibility.
And they don’t succeed first tries of course (Wow were said operatives frustrated and maybe cursing a bit that might be a bit violently) but then they get some assistance from the Fentons! Trying to hit an ecto-entities’ wings in a way to not permanently injure them is hard, but the new net canons that a ghost can’t pass through? Perfect!
They have so many specimens now! They even released a few that were very much uncontainable- they rely on technology a bit and that entity kept unlocking all the doors. So catch and release with that one it is!
They even managed to catch the white-haired ghost! In double! Which might not seem that important, but! As they realize during intake & initial examination (wow are they bitey) the two appear to be young! Something their ectobiologists only theorized about but oh are they excited! (Now if only the two would stop trying to escape their enclosure that’d be swell! Look, toys! Foo- oh dear God that baby ecto-entity is melting- Oh few, okay note taken to raise ambient ecto levels in that room dear god that was horrifying and stressful. … Maybe get some feelers out for feeding unstable energy entities…)
#my art#DCxDP#DPxDC#Prompts#Ghosts Have Wings#But I combined it with dragon ghosts sort of so more like Ghosts are humanoid Quetzals#Everyone thinks the GIW are trying to kill the ghosts but they’re trying to study them#Ghosts also speak Ghost Speak & humans can’t understand#Danny is panicking when Ellie starts to melt#He also is now terrified of leaving because the thing keeping her stable is the high ecto in the enclosure#The GIW scientists: It’s like having a heat lamp with chicks to keep their temperature from dropping but like ecto levels!#Technus poking at altered wildlife collar: What a strange snazzy necklace!#Danny: I wonder where Johnny & Kitty are- it’s been quiet from them for a bit…#Kitty & Johnny: Yo let us out let us out Let Us Out jesus fuckin christ they can’t hear us through this glass#Skulker brooding on the perch in the wall of his cell: I would shoot you if I had any weapons left- if you come in here I Will Gut You#GIW: Wow what a large variety of vocalizations! So much Science!#Fentons: Huh I wonder where Danny is- gotta finish this contract first though!#Jazz calling JL non emergency line because the police have already dismissed her: my brother is missing and idk what to do

She was decidedly uncomfortable with the switchblade. Although she very much liked the idea of it—Blue Sargent, desperado; Blue Sargent, superhero; Blue Sargent, badass—she suspected that the only thing she would cut the first time she opened it was herself.
#the raven cycle#blue sargent#trc#fanart#mine#my art#this had a very different color scheme when i supposedly finished it#and then the temperature dropped and the fall feels got me#¯\_(ツ)_/¯

( guys there's an iguana that's been sitting on our front door wreath since yesterday and still hasn't left or moved. i think he's stuck (don't think he's dead tho, he's still bright green... possibly just thawing out tho from yesterday) and i want to check on him but also don't want to get tail whipped by an iguana h e l p )
#[chaos mode]&ooc#the temperatures have officially started dropping#into iguana freezing weather here in south florida#he surprisingly didn't fall off yesterday tho???#i think bc of how he's resting on it#his eyes seemed to be moving/following me when i was outside earlier#but i was afraid to get too close lol

call me a rice krispie the way my body snap crackle pops
#seriously need to see a doctor#i think part of this is that my joints get worse during the colder months#and the temperature has just recently dropped in the last couple weeks#but when i tell you i cannot move without something cracking or popping-#shift the weight from one leg to the other? hip pops#lift my arm up? shoulder joint cracks#and then my recurring issue of my wrists and elbows always popping whenever i move them#and don't even get me started on my back 😭#personal

this is not even a silly lil au and more just a silly lil scenario but like. gffa weatherman au where, to ingratiate themselves with the public and demystify themselves, the Jedi have a whole holonet channel people on Coruscant can tune in to watch, featuring segments like “Fishing with Master Fisto” and “Meditations with Master Yoda” and “Baking with Master Windu”.
And obi-wan is roped into doing the weather segment which is all well and good (it doesn’t take that long, he just has to point things out on a big map of coruscant, make some flirty asides to the holo camera, wear pristine robes, and then he can go back to being a proper Jedi doing proper Jedi stuff)
Only Anakin Skywalker has the grudge the size of Tatooine against the Jedi Order and Obi-Wan Kenobi specifically after he was rejected from their ranks at 9 years old—and Obi-Wan Kenobi called him a pathetic life form! To his face! sure that was 15 years ago now but still!
And it just so happens that Anakin Skywalker stuck around Coruscant and worked his way up the ranks of the planet’s engineering branch over the last 15 years, and by the time obi-wan is assigned Coruscanti weatherman, anakin has enough sway to literally control the weather cycles on coruscant…..and make it so that whatever obi-wan predicts is wrong. Rain on sunny days, cold weather in the middle of the summer….obi-wan is at the end of his rope and also very intrigued by whatever engineer is holding the entire planet of coruscant as hostages to enact his petty vengeance
#Kit’s silly lil AUs#obikin#they start flirting through weather#anakin gets so flustered when obi-wan shows up for his segment in a skimpy outfit (because it’s been SOOOOO hot lately)#that he makes the temperature drop back to normal a moment later#obi-wan leaves the show/segment and another Jedi takes over#and anakin makes it rain for like 20 days because he’s sulking

Hey y'all! The AC in my house is like half-broken and I have all the heat tolerance of a particularly sad penguin*, so I could use some advice. I am from a desert area, so I know the stay hydrated, electrolytes, loose clothes type advice, but do you have any advice for handling the heat in humid areas specifically? Also, does anyone have any recommendations for sun hats? Specific sun hats you recommend are what I'm looking for, but if you don't have a specific one an idea of what criteria I should look for would be very helpful too *I say this jokingly, idk how much heat tolerance penguins actually have. I have POTS, salt wasting syndrome, and some unknown autoimmune issue that probably involves my endocrine system? Docs are still working on it but the sum total is I cannot exist in hot temperatures
#the person behind the yarn#tj asks weird questions#this one isn't that weird that's just my tag for this#I have All The Electrolytes in supplement form#and I take them regularly! and a medication to make me retain them better!#it just doesn't work enough for summer#the AC is keeping it to mid 80s at the highest but at like anything over 78ish I start wilting#like a dramatic houseplant#and I saw a post and apparently benadryl makes you sweat less??#which on the one hand is good for me personally for 'hey that is my salt I want to keep it' reasons#but on the other is bad for 'actually lowering temperature' reasons#though to be clear I don't really overheat. like. I do not get actual heat exhaustion#my problem is my body is Too Good at vasodilation in an effort to shed heat#so my blood pressure drops and it makes my heart rate skyrocket to try to compensate#but frequently when it's hot my body temperature is actually a full degree or more BELOW my normal#I am not in danger of actual overheating in any way shape or form. I'd pass out first from low blood pressure lol

>> Pokemon Personality Quiz
Well, this was off to a good start. Roman looked at his result proudly, finding it very accurate for a man like himself. Nothing suited him better than a Dragon, being a natural leader with strong ambitions to take over Gotham and claim the city as his own. Damn right he had high standards and he wasn't afraid to show it!
"Agreeableness is very low? Fuck you, I'm perfectly agreeable when it suits me!" The rudeness of this quiz.
It was only getting after his result that the grumbling stopped, Roman completely in shock at what he'd gotten. He'd expected dragons; fierce, proud, powerful beasts that matched the vigor and menace he exuded and what he'd gotten was far from what he'd expected.
"And just what the fuck is that? A Goodra? Are you fucking kidding me!?!? That ain't no fucking dragon, that's something out of My Little P.ony or some kid's shit! Don't get mad if it slimes up my good suit? You better believe I'm gonna get PISSED at this gooey-eyed piece of shit touching me! Sure, don't give me the badass with blades in his face or the giant Blue Crocosaurus. Even the frozen turkey would be better than fucking Goodra." Roman seethed. This shit was exactly the reason why he didn't like Pokeymans or whatever the hell the stupid series was called.

#💀 || dashboard games#💀 || memes#I wasn't going to post this but when I saw what Roman got#I just had to I'm sorry#Don't underestimate Goodra Roman it's a strong Pokemon!#And you could do with a hug however snotty you are about your suits#Thank you all for the lovely asks you guys sent btw settling down to do them now!#Honeycomb has been devoured and bedding is made#Room is bright and beautiful and fresh#In a very good mood despite the drop in temperature#And sad things from years ago#Finally come to terms with my aunt being gone after all these years#It still hurts but it's gotten easier to manage#Can't believe it's been 8 years since she's passed#death mention tw#death mention cw#Just had to post a funny real quick to stay on top

Doing dumb shit that won't get me anywhere but you never know.
Gonna ask if I can get a reasonable accommodation for a window a/c unit because they turn the air conditioning off in the building when it still gets to 80° daily.
I can't handle temps this high with my pots. It's making me miserable and triggering my tachycardia when it shouldn't be
I won't get it because the landlord sucks ass but man fuck it can't hurt to try
#if they say no i will buy myself one when my disability comes through#fuck this heat#its ridiculous to have manual heat and a/c in the midwest#the temperature can literally drop/increase 60° in a day

You absolutely cannot cry around Shoto Todoroki because he treats it the same as if you caught a cold and doesn’t leave you alone nor get over it for 4 (four) whole business days
#Todoroki#he’s like ‘oh my god u need hot soup and rest immediately and pedialyte and oh my god a cough drop’#and you’re like no I do not I need healthy coping mechanisms#but by that point the kettle is already on and he’s getting u a blanket#sopping wet emotional support puppy#it is so cute and funny#except when it’s 5 days later and he’s still checking ur temperature like it has anything to do with ur mood#and you wake up to him asking if you’re sad#BOY!#anyway crying rn lol#gen#shii posts

~monsoon season intensifies~
#it’s 26 degrees (celcius) and it’s freeeeeeeeezing#man. this is the temperature i set my a.c. at and i’d freeze without my quilt… aaaaaa#makes for great sleep weather though~~~~ going out weather? not so much#the heavy rains apparently caused some kinda traffic jam yesterday…#and so myself and. like. 50-100 other people were trapped under a crowded bus stop with only 1 bus coming every. like. 10 minutes#and. like. 8 different services stop at that specific bus stop at that specific time. so. y’know.#and. like. some of the rare buses that dropped by were of the same service. that hardly anyone boarded. lol.#~shows how dire the situation was~#i swear only my shoes and socks were soggy when i first arrived at the bus stop…#but by the time i finally got on the bus the calves of my pants were soaked through…#i hope it doesn’t happen again on monday… bc then the getsuyou would truly be extra yuuutsu—

Seven asking if the socialization programs the Doctor is leaving her include anything on ending a friendship... I just witnessed a murder
#star trek: voyager#seven of nine#doctor#the temperature in that room must've physically dropped#she is SO fucking pissed and also heartbroken#oh the regret in her eyes when he leaves and her last words were to snap at him...
