"PELEE ISLAND GIRL BURNED TO DEATH," Windsor Record. February 17, 1913. Page 1. --- Daughter of Caretaker Placed Crude Oil in Furnace and Explosion Ignited Her Clothing. ---- Leamington, Feb. 17.-An explosion of crude oil in the furnace of a southside Pelee Island schoolhouse caused the death of a daughter of Hooper Thomas, who acted as caretaker of the school. She fixed the wood in the furnace ready for lighting the fire on the following day, placing a quantity of crude oil thereon. Fire which remained in the furnace ignited the oil and an explosion followed, setting the child's clothing ablaze. She ran out of the building and down the road for nearly half a mile, and when found by neighbors every stitch of clothing was burned from the body. She died a few minutes later. The school building was saved.

Randy's become a teen now.

Working out and having a conversation with his mom.

Practicing sparring with his Uncle Taku.

So... My game was being laggy. All I know is that Miki was preparing waffles and next thing I know there's smoke and I get a notification saying that Miki had died of fire. Also, the Harris family are staying with Randy and Taku for a while.

I got Jeb all cleaned up. He looks nice without the bag on his head.

Jeb is helping Randy with a robotics project from school.

Looks like someone's having a mood swing.

The boys have developed feelings for each other and now they're dating.

Wars and Wild as knights in Lu

They have issues.

I have a lot of thoughts on Wild and Wars and their relationship (Order of this post is talking about saluting, Wild and Wars' different perspectives, memory issues, and fire) Rant time.

No saluting!!

So Wild took a formal- almost/awkwardly saluting pose when Wars confronted him in 'Entrance pt.2'

It's similar to the first time Wild addressed Wars as 'captain'. His left hand is up from where a salute should be, and his overall posture is awkward, with his shoulders and right hand raised, but it's clear he's trying to do a salute in the presence of a fellow knight.

In the second example his hand is behind his head, but his posture is very straight and his right arm stiff- he's again attempting a formal saluting position. Which is still awkward

It is less clear but his changes in posture clued me in. He goes from like a deer in the headlights to visibly sweating to straight backed and looking up at Wars- looking at the changes in his body language

Side note but I literally love how Jojo draws the champions tunic so much-

We can't see the action of Wild's body language in a comic, just the positions he went to. But he visibly leaned away from Wars before switching to a straight backed saluting-like posture. He's clearly freaked out, hence Twilight's face: >:(

I think that Wild taking somewhat military poses around Wars is important to their relationship issues because it comes from his struggle with memory and identity

.

So like. All of them have different perspectives

Wars

I adore Wars. He is baby and I love him. I think it is also important to acknowledge that he would not speak to any of the others this way.

And the scarf man cmon it's so pretty they are so cute-

Why is Wars talking to Wild like this? He's called him out and reprimanded him multiple times in front of the others. Wild has taken it well but tbh if it was Legend I think he would be on fire.

To some extent I think he is in captain mode. I think that he has trouble seeing Wild as not a knight. Wars gives Wild respect as a knight who sacrificed for his kingdom, but now it seems he's taking it away as a knight who's not doing well enough since he 'disregarded the plan'

At least I think that's the outside (or Wild's) view of it. But Wars internally really cares about Wild and he saw him run up to a giant and lose it. Different ways of showing concern perhaps?

Who wouldn't want to keep Wild from getting more scars?

I just. Don't doubt for a second Wars really cares about Wild- even if the way he's acting still isn't cool. He has no right to treat him like a soldier any more than the rest of the chain, and right now I think Wild is acting as the more mature person.

Wild

I adore Wild. He is baby and I love him. I think it is also important to acknowledge that although he is clearly making efforts after Twilight's injury, Wild has ignored Wars for the majority of Lu, by not speaking to him much, and not thanking or acknowledging Wars when he directly helped him. (Small example being walking with Hyrule not Wars when injured and not directly responding to Wars)

Wars cares about and respects Wild, but it seems Wild wants nothing to do with him, and he's been cold towards Wars for the majority of Lu. To Wild, Wars reminds him of his perceived failure. Which is valid feelings, but still not fair. And I think that ask is talking about these two.

The thing I love about this is each of them are right and wrong in some ways, leading to the tension between them. So fully blaming either of them is not logical

The rest of the chain is just vibing. Except twilight who's mad and wants them to just grow up, but. Heros of courage not wisdom @uniquevoidflowers ;)

And that ask- '''Are any of the Links ever jealous of another Link for adventures that were less difficult/life threatening?'' ''When you hear Wild say he 'hates' someone you'll have your answer.''' somewhat leads to my next point-

Wild's identity and memory issues exacerbate all of this

In Entrance, Twilight is being stressed and defensive, that's ok. What concerns me most is that Twilight has talked with Wild through stuff like this in his rough moments

Wild has tried to be formal several times- he is not very good at it

Four's face I can't didnwidkekfjej

Wild isn't and can't be 'him'- the same 'perfect' (<actually has crippling anxiety) knight he was before, and Twilight knows this. And I agree with him a bit, I think, that Wars is making things worse in Wild's mind by being that perfect soldier, and seemingly holding Wild to a standard he isn't

Wild's attempts at saluting is symbolic of that- Wars makes him feel like a failure trying to be the person he should be. But Wild shouldn't be anyone but himself.

Anyways. Fire.

Wars and Wild have issues, and I want them to work through all their relationship drama so they can reach their PEAK dynamic, which is obviously this

I mean like. We need these two to be friends

Anyways. Wild is in this constant state of identity crisis, and being around Wars has not been beneficial- neither of them is or has been showing the other the respect they deserve. Not as knights, but as people and brothers. They need a get along shirt.

Real-Life Scary Story 14:  Barbecue

Nobody was hurt in this incident, but just in case…

TRIGGER WARNING: Fire

While my grandpa was still alive, he loved barbecue and would grill plenty of delicious meat every holiday. After he got sick for the first time, we helped him recover from the chemotherapy and such for about a year after his final treatment. By then, he had gotten enough stamina back to resume his normal activities. Though his stamina definitely wasn’t as great as it once was. So, my dad would occasionally help him out. I was maybe 12 when this story happened.

Both my dad and grandpa had set up the grill and put the meat in to cook. Meanwhile, I was helping my mom make cornbread. My grandma was keeping her distance because she had started yet another fight and after a brief shouting match with my mother, she left to cool off. After the cornbread went into the oven, I went outside for some fresh air.

While messing around the garden, I noticed that there was more smoke than normal coming from the direction of the grill and nobody else was outside at the time. So, I wandered over to check it out. Sure enough, I saw flames coming out of the grill…and onto a wooden tray next to it. The breeze was kicking up more fire and I knew I had to react. There was no extinguisher or water nearby. So, I went inside.

*Disturbing detail: The area I lived in at the time was incredibly dry and prone to fires. There are massive ones there every other year. So, it had to be fixed quickly.*

Since I was always taught to stay calm in an emergency, I power-walked over quickly and said, “Mom. The grill’s on fire.” My mom gave me a look and said it was supposed to be. I replied, “Not like this. It’s spreading.” She freaked out and ran to get my dad, who went to look for the fire extinguisher. Meanwhile, I grabbed a pitcher, filled it with water, swiftly walked back outside, and put the fire out on the tray without ruining the meat.

By the time my dad came out with the extinguisher, I was already standing there calmly holding the empty pitcher. The wooden tray was blackened and smoldering behind me. He muttered a quick “Thanks.” and I nodded before going in to refill the pitcher. Then, I grabbed a patio chair and sat in front of the grill with the pitcher next to me to make sure nothing else caught on fire. The rest of the day went smoothly and the barbecue was awesome as always.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ From an early age, I was taught to keep a calm head in an emergency. I also had to memorize a bunch of safety protocols and such. That and some other survival lessons have stuck with me throughout my life and managing to stay calm to assess a situation quickly HAS saved my life and others’ on multiple occasions. I kind of compartmentalize it and hold down the panic during the emergency. Though right afterwards, especially once the adrenaline wears off, I tend to break and have a bit of a freakout whether it be manifested as anger, fear, or simply freezing in place for a while.

Either way, it’s okay to be scared, but letting it consume, freeze, or sabotage you can be a very dangerous thing. Listen to that fear and see what it’s telling you. If you remember anything about what you were taught to do about the threat, follow the steps as best you can and get out of there. Otherwise, the best option is to leave immediately. Get somewhere safe. Tell someone you trust about what happened. Ask for help.

Stay safe, my friends.

I've been reading NightWings myths again and it's wild how there's no ending to the Darkstalker legend. Like they all talk about how evil and terrifying it was and how it was some great monster, but they all go in different directions when it comes to how it was defeated. Like nobody could even figure out how to beat something like that.

what if instead of being defeated by some hero or being tricked into destroying himself darkstalker just went underground and lives in the mountains

"SHOPKEEPER DENIES CHARGE OF ARSON," Montreal Star. July 20, 1933. Page 3. ---- The fire in his store at 269 Craig street east was caused not by coal oil but by a combination of coal oil and other fluid with which he had been cleaning the pipes, Sam Astrofsky pleaded this morning when standing trial for arson.

When the firemen arrived at the scene of the blaze, it was stated in evidence, the store was already destroyed, but they found traces of coal oil having been sprinkled throughout the building. Judge Menet adjourned the case till July 25 when he will hear arguments of counsel.

Character intro:

Sally

Here's what the text says if its unreadable:

"In no less than a day... as if scorched by the sun, the prospherous City of Ambrol was burnt til ashes became air."

Also lore dump below:

So Sally is like an alien in a literal sense, she is a star afterall so she is beyond the sky amd such. She landed on earth when she was young, like think very small and harmless, and was found by some people. Immediately gets taken into Ambrol city and revered as a god. As Sal grew older, her flames grew as well and at some point she could not control it so she accidentally burned her hometown down to the ground. Bummer.
