Candid

A lil photographer!shuji fluff for the dash. V short and unedited bc I need to clean my drafts up p badly so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It started as a joke.

"Take a picture Shuji, it'll last longer." You'd said as you handed him his first camera. It was your uncle's old Polaroid camera. Still loaded with some forgotten color 600 film.

You'd meant to tease him for the unrelenting feeling of his eyes on you. You'd meant for it to be playful and sassy, to suit the banter you two enjoyed daily.

What you got instead was Shuji carrying the damned thing like a bespoke albatross around his neck. You were met with bright eyes and a huge hand around your wrist, insistent that you take an adventure right then to take his new treasure for a spin.

Months after the initial gift, you were routinely cutting your senior classes to accompany Shuji on trips or getting wrapped into his hijinx to acquire more precious film. You found yourself squatting in alleyways flapping developing film around as if it'd make the image appear faster, laughing with your best friend.

You gifted him the camera not knowing what it'd do to his life. Not realizing it'd give him a purpose and an outlet. You gave it to him as a joke of a gift never expecting anything to come of it and certainly expecting nothing in return.

A year to the day, however, your best friend handed you a little bundle of photos tied together with a length of twine. Unravelling his scant wrapping, you were met with white plastic lined square photos of your likeness...

Your head rested on your folded forearms and all that was visible of your face was a slight pout and your closed eye. Sunlight washed over your napping form and bathed you in a romantic glow.

A photo of your face scrunched up with Shuji's hand imprinted with punishment pinching your cheek like a proud father, smoke curling all around you after your bestie had blown it in your face.

Your back, arms spread wide and chest puffed to the sky with accomplishment as you stood a top a cliff.

A hazy photo, half blocked by two of your fingers though traces of doubles of the image further obscure your face. Your nose is scrunched in annoyance, eyes narrowed as you try and snatch Shuji's camera. You swear you can hear his laugh.

At the bottom of the last photo in the collection of candids, in Shuji's signature scrawl you read: still doesn't last long enough.

You couldn't help the way warmth creeped from your cheeks to your ears. This was a surprise. It shouldn't have been, you supposed, not with how Shuji's eyes were always glued to you, or given how inseparable you lot were. You knew the pair of you were close, even had an inkling that you loved each other but neither of you would say it in so many words. You'd never crossed that line.

Shuji shifted his weight to his other foot. He opened his mouth, but his apologies for being weird died on his tongue when you cut him off, speaking through a cheeky smile. "When did you get so cheesy Shuji?" Without waiting for an answer, you threw your arms around his shoulders to draw him in for a long, long overdue kiss.

Fun Fact: Oilbirds are Basically BatBirds!

I want to talk about these amazing birds:

I love them. I mean, look at their big, shiny eyes! NO ONE can say that they aren’t cute as hell!

The other reason I love these animals is because they’re basically what happens when evolution tries to make a bat out of a bird.

These little guys are known as oilbirds (Steatornis caripensis), and are also called guácharo (and also several other things, because they are found in South America, plus Trinidad & Tobago, which all have INCREDIBLE language diversity). 

Oilbirds are nocturnal, flying around the forests of South America at night looking for fruit to eat. They also live colonially in caves, which they navigate using echolocation.

So, to review:

(I’m making my Generic Bats a very generic fruit bat, for the record).

Oilbirds are the only birds with this combination of traits, which I think is pretty cool of them! Why are they so much like bats? Basically, when different types of animals evolve under similar selective pressures, they often evolve the same features! This is called convergent evolution, and wow I talk about it a lot on this blog! It turns out that nocturnal animals that live in caves and eat fruit can sometimes benefit from traits like these!

(they’re, like… spooky-cute. Cute-spooky? Either way, I like them a lot)

So, if these birds are flying around at night, how do they stop themselves from flying into things while searching for that tasty, tasty fruit?

Well, in the forest, they mostly rely on their AMAZING night vision (which is another trait they share with bats, fyi). That is why they have such big, adorable eyes, which has a lot of light-sensing cells called rods. They actually hold a record for the density of the rods in their eyes: one million per square millimetre. That is the highest density of any known vertebrate. It’s about 6x denser than the rods found in human eyes! 

…still cute

Their amazing vision allows them to see very well in low light, which is how they navigate the South American jungles at night, searching for food under the moon and stars. That said, their vision just doesn’t cut it when it comes to flying in the caves they call home. Why? Well, caves are dark as hell, and even the best night-vision can’t do anything for you when there’s no light at all. Plus, flying into cave walls/ cliff faces hurts, so it’s good to be extra sure you’re not flying into solid rock!

So how do they find their way around these dark caves? Well, they use something very unusual for birds: echolocation!

Oilbirds are one of only a few species of birds that are known to use echolocation (the others are a few species of  the closely-related swiflets (Collocaliini), but I HAVE DECIDED TODAY IS FOR THE OILBIRDS im sorry, swiflets, ilu2).

Look at them, not flying into rocks! I’m so proud (˃̣̣̥ ◡ ˂̣̣̥)

Also, a bonus fact, because idk where to fit this but I MUST mention it:

They have little whiskers around their beaks (which are technically called “rictal bristles”, but I’m going to call them “whiskers” because I like that word better). These whiskers are basically used to feel things that they have in and around their mouth, helping them find, manipulate, and eat their tasty fruit!

…moustache…

This has been Fun Fact Friday!

me: oh boy, that’s the fight scene done. it was tough but I managed it. I guess now they should realise they both aren’t threats to the other and offer to work together-

suspiciously dark lord shaped devil on my shoulder: add another

me: haha, what

suspiciously dark lord shaped devil on my shoulder, summoning some monsters: add. another.

“Thank God”

I hear you braided cysts while feeling sick

Feeling alright, feeling okay, you take what’s dark and make it brighter

You make my day

You take away

The feelings that i have inside that I try to keep at bay

You bring them out in a meaningful way

And now i can say

Thank God

I don’t feel the same

I feel okay

I feel alright

In the most unusual way

For the first time in my life

Everything’s alright

Oh what a feeling so surreal

I can’t believe it’s unreal

What a majesty unfolding

What great faith emboldening

I worry not

I wonder not

I care for nothing lack not at all

God is good and i am blessed

I worry not, am never stressed

And all i owed it to was the gospel I hold true

I look forward to the day he wipes my tears away

But in the face of this fading life and decay

I worry not today

I know he’ll save me a room, I know I won’t be gone too soon

I know his precious love is true

I know that he is coming soon

And if I can find a way I’ll teach his awesome sacrifice against the godless immoral sin and vice

And who knows

Maybe I’ll bring some friends with me heavenward

What a blessing, endeavorer

Thank you God, you are good and i am not

Thank you God for making me righteous in your eyes

Thank you God for your truth amid the lies

Thank God for you are good and that’s enough, don’t you know these days hardly any this is

I digress, yet i insist

Recollect, reminisce

Reflect

okay but listen, hear me out.

astraea for hades 2.

like, kronos is trying to bring about a new golden age; astraea is a goddess who will supposedly return when a new golden age comes around, an age heralded by the birth of a child (ignore the fact that christians decided that child was jesus because christianity has done enough to mythology already)

i don't really know if she'd be an ally or an enemy in-game but it's just too good of an opportunity to pass up? even if she's not necessarily as well-known as most of the other figures in the game she's contextually perfect for it
