Mariana agrees to walk with him and Tami to a nearby picnic blanket.

Mariana: I have to say, I didn't plan on having a picnic, buuuuut sometimes the best things are never planned.

Drake: Unplanned is my middle name.

Mariana: *chuckles*

Drake: Just so you know - I won't be babysitting the entire time. I'm hoping to see more of the city-know of any good tour guides?

Drake hopes she takes the hint.

Mariana: I'd love to show you a few places here. You might need me around, at least for help with your Spanish.

Drake: That's what I hoped to hear—as long as I don't get into trouble with your husband or boyfriend.

Another hint–Drake holds his breath.

Mariana: *laughs* Oh, you won't have to worry about that. I'm single.

They’ll have to exchange contact information if they hope to meet again.

Drake: Are you available tomorrow? Maybe I can get your contact info, and we can set something up.

Mariana: Hmm, well, we will see about tomorrow, buuuuut sure! I think I’d like that!

Drake gives Mariana his cell so she can put in her contact info but forgets that his Cupid’s Corner profile is still open. He doesn’t realize it until he sees the shock on Mariana’s face.

Mariana: Still looking for the right one, huh? I can understand that.

If Drake could melt into the blanket, he would. He didn’t intend on anyone seeing that picture. He hadn’t even saved it yet.

Drake: *embarrassed* Uh, yeah-I don’t use that much. I just figured it wouldn’t hurt to update my pic. Maybe I should just put your number in myself.

Drake holds his hand out, and Mariana returns the phone, reciting her number for Drake to input.

Mariana appears to be amused by the entire encounter. They both realize that it’s getting late at the same time.

Drake: Sorry for keeping you here for so long. I’m sure you had better things to do today.

Mariana: It was so nice to meet you, and I look forward to seeing you again.

Mariana gets up to leave. Drake stares after her, hoping he’ll get to see her again. Maybe this time on an actual date.

Part 2 - coming soon!

Dog Meshi.

#dungeon meshi #falin touden #marcille donato #laios touden #The foreshadowing of the laios's barking is so funny. It isn't even just Marcille's flashback. It's everywhere.#It's the love of dogs. How he intimidates the basilisk. General fascination with creatures and their behaviours.#This is a man who is would not be a furry per say but would own a fursuit for the fascination of the craft.#Laios is the guy in the forums rating people's hybrid fursonas for nothing but the love of creatures.#Dog Laios would use his powers to go into dog-free restaurants.#That human impression is so good. One might say 'Woah who's that confident hairy guy? Alright boss; in you go.'#He would be the no.1 customer of a New York Deli that has no legal business license but makes the best sandwiches in the city.#“Would Senshi run it?” I think he would also be a dog in this theoretical AU. Which...makes the scene even funnier actually.#A comic in which everyone is dogs was never something I thought I'd make but here we are!#Marcille is a borzoi (elf of dogs). Tolden siblings are golden lab-retrievers.#Senshi is a scottish terrier. Chilchuck is harder; I need to think on that one. Another terrier perhaps.#Happy Thistle Thursday once again. I hope this comic makes someone laugh half as much as I did while drawing it.

calling my lover "mine" but not in the way that my toothbrush or notebook are mine, mine in the way my neighborhood is mine, and also everybody else's, "mine" like mine to tend to, mine to care for, mine to love. "mine" not like possession but devotion.

#nonbinary love #nblnb yearning #nb4nb #nblnb #wholesomeposting #yearning hours #ive been thinking about how some languages dont have a possessive tense #so you dont say “i have a thing” but rather “a thing is by me”#and like im not usually one for psycho linguistics and like critical thoughts etc etc etc #but i really like the framework of responsibility/commitment rather than ownership #i think about this mostly in terms of ecology #and relation to land #but i also love it as it applies to language shared between lovers #like i LOVE calling them mine or for them to call me theirs #but i'm also nonmonog and that was kinda weird to square for a while #and it clicked one time when i was talking about my neighborhood and i was like well #when i say my neighborhood or my city it's understood i'm not taking it away from anybody else #its understood i just mean the city where i live #so why cant we apply the same to lovers?#mine in the way i want to show up for you again and again #ok #done now

Sometimes you just have one of those moments where the progress we've made as a culture get thrown into stark relief. You look at something and go "Holy shit, that would never have happened when I was a kid."

Today, I had one of those moments when I realized that the teenage boys I'm working with are just. genuinely, openly enthusiastic about going to Build-a-Bear for their outing.

These are sixteen and seventeen year old boys! They just had a whole conversation about what to name their "cute", mostly new squishmallows! They're genuinely excited that they're going to Build-a-Bear this weekend and asking other kids to pick up specific accessories for them!!

Holy shit, that never would've happened when I was 16. None of the boys would have dared to be visibly interested - and neither would most of the girls! There would have been a million gay jokes and "Haha, you're a girl" jokes and "What are you, a baby?" jokes. Teenagers weren't even supposed to care about anything back then!

Less than 15 years later, and I'm watching three 17 year old boys treat all that as not even worthy of comment.

So let's call that a reason for hope. Even when the kids aren't alright, in some ways apparently they are alright. Go Gen Z, honestly. It's so lovely to watch you guys just openly doing and saying stuff that, when I was a teen, would've been a social death sentence.

#obligatory disclaimer that this really really obviously is not universal #I do live in a major progressive city #there's definitely a level of a liberal bubble effect here #but it's still really powerful to see it #because even in a major liberal enclave there were so many limits on the gender roles and homophobia etc. etc. fronts #and also the limits of the oppressive weight of obligatory teen apathy lol #seriously go gen z. so glad you guys decided cringe is dead. I love you for that so much #and I love it for you #not news #life #hope #homophobia #sexism #teens #teenagers #progress #gen z #btw if it wasn't clear I'm a #millennial #plush toy #plushie #squishmallows #build a bear #stuffed animal #like the idea of almost any teenager much less teenage boys #saying IN FRONT OF THEIR PEERS #that they are excited about their STUFFED ANIMALS #when I was a teenager #?????#cannot imagine that ever happening.

While I'm sure bad guys in Gotham have learned over time that the Bats don't kill, that even after bashing your teeth in they'll flag down an ambulance or dump you unceremoniously at the ER, it's still a shaky trust.

One that is easily shaken seeing a child wielding a sword in the dead of night; nobody wants to learn how that is handled nonlethally. Or bad guys just surrendering one late night after running into an alley and Nightwing's standing over their unconscious buddy, holding the gun he wrestled away. They watch Red Hood break into the place they're robbing with a crowbar in hand and just decide they'd rather not chance it. They see a shadow that could be Black Bat and-- you get it.

#I love the idea that so many things can kill you in Gotham that the Bats are one of the only things a humble goon can trust #only in gotham #batman #batfam #dc comics #damian wayne #nightwing #red hood #batfamily #robin #jason todd #dick grayson #gotham city

What's funny about this is that both SimCity and Cities Skylines are simulators, so they could allow you to simulate different economic and urbanist models. This could create really fun gameplay and challenges too.

However that would mean introducing POLITICS like actual classes with interests as well as citizens participating (both by regular 'politics' and by acting by themselves) in the construction of a city, instead of being an almighty mayor who rules undisputed over their lives.

And many city builder fans aren't really interested on that, they just want a green empty field which has never existed anywhere in history so they can build a city and get to the real thing: Solving Traffic.

#cosas mias #I would love to make a city builder/politics simulator without anything but the most basic traffic tools #as a citizen myself fucking traffic is perhaps at the very bottom of what I care about

Drake: It’s nice-I mean what I’ve seen so far, anyway. Which isn’t much, just what I could see from the plane. My brother invited me on this trip to help babysit my niece.

Mariana: And how is she? She looks to be a handful, but I guess most toddlers are at her age.

Drake: Honestly, I -

Drake trails off. Something is missing here. It takes him a moment to realize what it is - he no longer hears Tami giggling or scrapping her shovel in the sand. He turns around and sees only her tiny footsteps. As small as she is, she couldn’t have gone very far, but Drake doesn’t see her. Where’d she go so fast?
