thinking about how buddy is inherently more durable than its crew. they are humans (presumably), soft and killable. but buddy is not its body, but a mask, which is very hard to break. it can get burned, shot, dismembered, poisoned, and blown up six ways from sunday, and its mask will be fine. thinking about how the crew settles into that mindset that buddy is innately more expendable whether they want to or not

it can travel in front. if there is a bracken, it will follow last. it is first to cross the gap to determine if the jump is worth the risk. it loves to do this because it keeps its crew, significantly more vulnerable than itself, safe. it serves as bait for a spider and laughs when it is numbed with venom and collapses, laughs knowing it just had to get the thing to turn around, to leave itself open to be killed by someone else. fifteen teleports it for the seventh time and grows numb to seeing what a thumper does to a body, watching the host stop moving in the ship. it shoves five out of a nutcracker's line of sight and gets shot and still twitches and laughs as it bleeds its energy out, to keep its attention on it rather than anyone else. how readily it will split from the others and serve itself on a silver platter to anything and everything, just to keep them alive.

its crew don't like it, how it has formed some odd complex about it. it never gets downright reckless with itself, because getting a body is a pain kept to a minimum, but that doesn't stop that looming knowledge of how it can be used. a useful ability to have, leaving it and its team assured that there is a fail-safe. that it's okay for someone to lag behind or march into danger, because they can always get it another body. it is the perfect sacrificial lamb.

it gets a little scared when the baboon hawks rip it apart, seeking for things to swallow whole, and wrap their maws around its skull. turretfire or a nutcracker could hit its mask. a pack of dogs fighting over it could (and eventually do) crack its mask. but it does it anyways, no matter how it disturbs itself or its team, because that is the role it has embraced; it is happy to die for them. it can afford to get eaten alive, so why wouldn't it place itself between a dog and its beloved crew? it is simultaneously ready to die and terrified of death

Sannyo MMD models

[Here's her doing a cute pose. Interesting Lore, the amazing Touhou MMD creator "Vegemite-Flavored Indomie" posted this image to congratulate the silly amount of effort required for whoever cheated the 200 votes for Sannyo in the 2023 popularity poll.] (Check out their YouTube channel, they especially love Maribel and Renko)

Here's another image.

Here's one where the absolute touhou MMD legend MTB is using her.

She's absolutely adorable, very gap moe. Though it's hard to deny it's got some really strange choices with her coat and outfit. Mostly it's got her undershirt missing and her coat is tucked into her skirt like it's her main shirt.

Though it's a very cute model all the same, I'm wondering how it appears to be the only one I've seen since it gives me some "alternate outfit" energy. But it's really the only one I see.

But there have to be more out there. So, when taking into account my complete lack of knowledge on searching for MMD assets, I am performing the laziest Google image search I can manage. The reason being, that if my search is sufficiently lazy, it will be sufficiently clear I have very little idea what I'm even looking for.

Firstly, behold

They are seemingly holding a Sannyo presentation hostage on nicovideo. (This is of course, impossible. No one can truly hold Sannyo hostage, her awesomeness is uncontainable, shes just waiting because she's perfectly content where she is)

here's one on Bowlroll, (do they post models there, idk?)

Anyway, I guess in conclusion, there's a lot of cute Sannyo MMD resources out there. Maybe? Probably? I have no idea what I'm even looking for. I'm just aimlessly clicking on cute Sannyos.

Though none of them seem like an original version of the cute gap-moe one that I thought had a bit of "alternate outfit" energy, so maybe it actually was the main outfit. It definitely makes sense people would want to tuck in her coat so it doesn't clip through things

laura mentioning the rome free practise crash reminded me of how shocking that whole thing was. recent fe fans dont even know, the cars had all stopped moving and prepped for practise starts apart from ollie who was on a full lap with a broken radio thinking everyone was still moving. so his team saw it coming and there was nothing they could do to warn him or anyone else in time to stop it. very lucky the worst of it was iev getting winded.

i did really like beastars season 3 but it really did cement that the entire thing should have just been animated in 2d

Husband Ghost who is obsessed with his wife. He refuses to tell her no, whatever his wife wants, she gets. Anything she even mentions wanting ends up in their shared home. She mentions a beautiful cookware set, she finds it in the cabinets later that week. She complains that her nails are grown out, later her nail tech calls and says that Ghost has paid for a years worth of nail appointments (with tip). Anything to make his wife smile

When Ghost is home his wife doesn't have to lift a finger. He loves the idea of a "traditional marriage" but he's actually a traditional man. He comes home and and does any repairs you need on the house. He's going to buy groceries, doing car maintenance, landscaping the lawn, doing the laundry. Anything his little wifey needs.

Any hobbies she has are always encouraged and paid for by Ghost. Constantly sending packages full of cooking supplies, yarn, stationary, and paints to the house while he's gone. He always wears the things she makes for him. They are bundled in blankets she knitted while eating brownies she baked. All while you are going through the scrapbook you had made while he was on deployment.

He refuses to argue with his wife. A firm believer in "happy wife, happy life". Anything his wifey doesn't like or want to do doesn't happen. She doesn't like his tie, he's changing. She doesn't feel like going out, he's helping her out of her dress and making them hot cocoa. Nothing she can do can upset him. He's so in love with her that anything she does is perfect to him.

I have these pens I really, really like.

For some (to me) unfathomable reason, they have made a limited edition Naruto themed set:

I am considering using them to take notes in meetings at my very serious and professional office job. But I already own functionally identical pens, so I find it hard to justify buying these just to confuse my colleagues. Especially since I've never actually watched Naruto (and have no desire to do so).

My friends would like help convincing me to do it anyway, so:

Since I can't help myself, my propaganda for the pens in general is under the cut.

+ They're erasable, in my experience more so than pencils. Just wait for the ink to dry a little first (~5 seconds is usually fine)

They're called Frixion Clicker, made by Pilot

+ No need for a separate eraser, they have a non-eroding rubber tip for that. It's precise enough to erase single letters in the middle of a word. Do make sure to keep it clean from graphite and other inks, so that doesn't smudge the paper

+ You can buy refills for them

+ The ink dries fast. I never get smudges on my hands

+ They come in 13 different colours and three line thicknesses

+ If you don't like clicky ball point pens, there's also capped pens, fine liners, markers and highlighters with the same type of erasable ink. I use the last two for drawing battle maps during DnD sessions

+ If you like clicky pens, they're great! Satisfying, nice and sharp sound, if a little loud. 8/10

+ I once managed to convince 5 people to buy them with just a single very short demonstration. They all still use them

+ I like the grip. They were the main writing utensil me and my study group used in university, and none of us had problems using them for hours at a time. There's also a fancy metal version for the same type refills if you prefer that

- They are advertised as being erased by friction, which is sort of true. The friction is just a way to generate heat, which turns the ink colourless. Don't put a hot plate on the paper

- Supposedly, the ink can also regain its colour if exposed to something cold enough (under -12°C). I have never tried this

+ You can use the heat thing to your advantage. The hot plate method is good for erasing a lot at once (I used it to clean my textbooks before reselling them)

- Erasing in the same spot several times can discolour the paper some. I still find it cleaner than using a pencil in the same manner

- Erasable pens should not be used for signatures, hand written exams or other official documents
