[image descriptions part 1:
ID 1: Skylla is sulking in a jail cell, saying, "one time I dreamt I got sent to death row because I had a countryish mullet instead of a gay alt one".
ID 2: Tyzias confides in Stelsa, "one time I dreamt a law was passed that made it illegal to say 'I'm gayer' when someone came out"
ID 3: Dave says, "one time I dreamt I met the patron saint of the gays". Nepeta does a cute pose. he continues, "she looked a bit like the Cheshire cat, but with green, red, and yellow stripes."

A Completely Normal Post About Plants.
Specifically the poison kind. A continuation of this conversation with @crowsandturtlesandbatsohmy and @icequeenabby.
I will go over some of my favorite poisonous plants, and a plant that @nyaboshi brought up because it's really cool. I will share a picture of each plant, a fun fact about it, if it is used in medicine or if it has another purpose, the type of poison/toxin it contains, and what that does to the human body.
Disclaimer: I am not an expert. Just someone who enjoys hyperfixating on many different subjects. Enjoy my brain rot.
Anyways the plants:
CW: Mentions of death, execution, and poison (obviously lol)
IMPORTANT!!!! Just in case I forget to mention this on any of these plants, every part of all these plants is toxic.
Another note: Whenever I refer to gastrointestinal issues/diseases, I am usually referring to nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach/abdominal pain, etc.
Foxglove
(Digitalis)
Tumblr media
My favorite poisonous flower.
Did you know that this flower is mistaken for Comfrey, another plant who's leaves are used to make tea? This mistake has resulted in illness and several deaths.
Truly akin to this scene (iykyk):
Tumblr media
Uses: This is used in certain medicines to slow down heart rates, due to high blood pressure, and in medicines for heart failures. It is possible to be poisoned from overdosing on this medicine.
Type of poison: Foxglove has a toxin known as digitalis/digoxin. Side effects of this poison include blurred vision/yellow or green vision [xanthopsia] (and seeing a halo like shape around lights), fatigue, gastrointestinal effects, weakness, bradycardia [a heart rate under 60 bpm], lower platelet counts (thrombocytopenia), arrhythmias [irregular heart beats], and the very rare case of cardiorespiratory failure. These symptoms can occur through consumption of the plant, and sometimes through over doses on the medicine. It can cause irritations to the skin, like rashes, if touched, and can cause terrible reactions from its pollen in certain individuals.
Oleander
(Nerium Oleander)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Many oleanders have a sweet, vanilla-like smell, however it is not recommended to smell them up close. These plants have been well documented in history, from Greek mythology to Vincent Van Gogh's painting titled "Oleanders." Despite it's deadly nature, it is quite popular among gardeners.
Uses: This plant is traditionally used to treat heart problems, asthma, and even cancer, but there is not enough evidence to support this actually having a positive effect. However there is more evidence of the leaves of the oleander being used as an effective anti-inflammatory and antioxidant under the right dosage.
Type of poison: The main type of poison in this plant is called toxic cardiac glycosides. But it also contains the poisons oleandrin, oleondroside, and digitoxigenin. These chemicals are found in all parts of the plant and affects the heart the most. The side affects if consumed include gastrointestinal effects, xanthopsia (yellow vision), eye irritation and burning sensation, effects to the nervous system such as tremors, seizures, coma, and cardiac effects including an increased heart rate that quickly slows to the point of death in some cases. If touched, it causes skin irritations and rashes, and can cause respiratory issues of the wood and leaves are burned.
Japanese Pieris
(Pieris Japonica)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is a plant that @nyaboshi shared with me. This plant is native to several countries in Asia, including Japan, China, and Taiwan. It is a symbol of powerful beginnings and new opportunities.
Uses: The main use of this plant is for a honey made from this plant called "Mad Honey," and it is used as a traditional medicine and for intoxication (which can lead to overdose and poison).
Type of poison: These plants contain Grayanotoxins. These affect the brain, nervous system, and heart. If consumed, this plant causes blurred vison, slower heart rates and lower blood pressure, gastrointestinal effects, weakness, fainting, cardiac failures, coma, and neurological side effects.
Deadly Nightshade
(Atropa Belladonna)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Quite the popular choice for poisoning. There are many many references to this plant in popular books, shows, and movies. It is also famous for being tied to witchcraft. Belladonna, as it is commonly known, is one of many in the Nightshade plant family. Some well known edible Nightshades include tomatoes, potatoes, eggplants, and tomatillos. But Belladonna isn't the only dangerous plant in the Nightshade family, she has other deadly sisters.
Uses: This was used in cosmetics once upon a time. Please do not use it as such please. Surprisingly, there are many uses for Belladonna! Under the right doses, correct mixing of chemicals, and correct consumption/other way of taking this plant can help in reducing symptoms asthma, motion sickness, hemorrhoids, whooping cough, irritable bowel syndrome, and a few other ailments.
Type of poison: This plant contains alkaloids, such as hyocyamine, scopolamine, and atropine. Belladonna is known as one of the most toxic plants that we know of. Consuming this plant, including medicated Belladonna, can cause cardiovascular diseases (and other heart problems such as tachycardia [increased heart rate]), gastrointestinal disorders, complications during pregnancy, psychiatric/neurological disorders, rash, headache, staggering/loss of balance, delirium, dilated pupils, blurred vison, sensitivity to light, severely dry throat and mouth, hallucinations, confusion, constipations, and convulsions.
Touching these plants can cause severe dermatitis and may cause its toxins to seep through the skin.
Giant Hogweed
(Heracleum mantegazzianum)
Tumblr media
Considered to be a very invasive species. It is widespread across east to west Europe, Canada, and in the united states. Because of it's dangerous nature, it is deemed by U.S. officials to be a noxious plant, so that the spread of this plant can be limited.
Uses: Not really. Its cousin the common hogweed was used in some medicines, but I would not recommend going near these.
Type of poison: The sap of this plant contains furanocoumarins, which combined with sunlight is severely phototoxic. When any part of the plant is touched, but especially the sap, this causes severe phytophotodermatitis, a terrible and serious skin inflammation, that includes severe blistering (and I mean SEVERE! If you have a strong stomach look it up examples of reactions you dare), a deep red rash, and even photosensitivity. And if you accidentally touch your eyes after exposure, it can harm your vision and even cause blindness.
I haven't seen information for when it's consumed, which is a good thing. It would probably cause intense internal damage.
Please just avoid this plant. For some reason I do not like this plant one bit. Whenever I see this plant I go : ಠ╭╮ಠ
Poison Hemlock
(Conium Maculatum)
Tumblr media
You have probably heard of this plant or one of its siblings. This plant was used to execute prisoners in ancient Greece, including the famous philosopher Socrates. Fun plant huh? Also invasive.
Uses: Has been used as a sedative, antispasmodic treatment for symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome, and for some respiratory diseases, all in very small doses. However, there is not enough evidence to really tell if these are positively effective.
Type of poison: Similar to Belladonna, this plant contains alkaloids, including C. maculatum, conium, and coniine. If ingested, it attacks the nervous system, and can cause fatal neuromuscular dysfunction as it will stop the movement of muscles in important organs including respiratory muscles, muscular paralysis, unconsciousness, coma, urination, depression, trembling, and weak or slow heartrate.
It is generally safe to touch poison hemlock, but it is better to be careful and safe.
Bittersweet Nightshade
(Solanum Dulcamara)
Tumblr media
Remember I mentioned Belladonna plants have other deadly siblings? Meet her bittersweet sister. In the Middle Ages this plant was said to ward off witchcraft (because of course it was). An interesting fact about this plant is that while it is toxic to humans, there are several bird species that love feasting on the berries.
Uses: This is used for skin conditions such as acne, eczema, itchy skin, broken skin, and a few others. It is also used for inflammation and easing arthritis, along with easing respiratory issues and illnesses like bronchitis, asthma, and pneumonia.
Type of poison: This plant contains solanine and a glycoside called dulcamarine. If consumed, and if over consumed via medical prescription, this plant can cause several gastrointestinal problems, confusion, mydriasis (dilation of the pupil), paralysis, delirium, numbness, shortness of breath, low pulse/slowed heartrate, convulsion, and weakness. It is unwise to take this during pregnancy.
This plant like is sister plant, should not be touched. Its toxins can be absorbed through the skin. So no touchy!
Western Monkshood/Wolfsbane
(Aconitum Columbianum/Aconitum Napellus)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is plant is surrounded by myth and a long history. In folk tales, it was considered to kill werewolves and normal wolves, hence one of its names. In ancient times it was occasionally used as an herbal medicine, however, it has more of a reputation as a poison for executions and assassinations.
Uses: Once upon a time, this plant was used to reduce fevers, as an anti-inflammatory, sedative, and to relieve other ailments. However, this plant is considered to be one of the most poisonous plants in Europe, so the thought of someone using this today, is very unlikely.
Type of poison: This plant contains aconitine and mesaconitine, which is a dangerous neurotoxin and cardiotoxin. Side effects of consumption include gastrointestinal issues, cardiovascular issues (weak/irregular heartbeat, slowing and stopping of the heart), difficulty breathing, asphyxiation, neurological issues, paralysis, pain, convulsions, multiple organ failure (especially of the liver and kidneys), numbness (especially of the mouth and tongue), and paraesthesia (feeling sensations in the skin for no apparent reason, like feeling cold, tingly, or clammy).
Do not touch this plant. The toxins can be absorbed through the skin, and can cause many of the same effects if consumed, and can cause numbness wherever you touched the plant.
Lily of the Valley
(Convallaria Majalis)
Tumblr media
Such a pretty pretty flower to finish of this list! This flower has been the national flower of Finland since 1967 (my gran's home country)! It is also the national flower of Yugoslavia. This plant is very popular, and has been used in many wedding bouquets, has been in several myths, the subject of art, poetry, music, and even shows (like "Breaking Bad").
Uses: Besides it being used for its sweet fragrance, it is supposedly effective heart problems, such as irregular heartbeat and heart failure, urinary tract infections, and kidney/bladder stones (HOWEVER, THESE ARE CLAIMS OF FOLK MEDICINE, NOT FACT).
Type of poison: This plant contains convallatoxin, which is similar to digitalis. If ingested it can cause heart problems such as irregular heartbeat/slow heartbeat and collapse, gastrointestinal issues, loss of appetite, excessive urination, confusion, drowsiness, weakness, depression, headache, disorientation, and lethargy.
This plant may cause skin irritation and possibly a rash/hives if handled for too long.

There are many other plants I have done research on, including mushrooms, but I'll stop here for now (for my sanity). I hope y'all enjoyed reading this!!!

Have a good day or night!!

Tumblr media
tiny chiss child acquired
Tumblr media
a few days later, the threat she was fleeing arrived at the colony. turns out it was a group of pirate raiders who want to kill her bc... she threw up at the altar when she was being forced into an arranged marriage??? she's 10???
Tumblr media
needless to say, their forces were thoroughly routed.
later, the squad went tomb-raiding! i probably should've let jaina open the mysterious sarcophagus given she has the indiana jones hat lol. i swear, she's addicted to silly hats. every time i get rid of one, she finds another.
Tumblr media
(you can tell it's winter bc they're all wearing their lil parkas)
surprisingly, though the tomb was full of hibernating soldiers and insectoids, they were all friendly and just walked off without a fight? i'm gonna repurpose this empty tomb into a 2-car garage lol
aaaand, a raider who we downed after she attacked the base is pregnant. MORE FOUNDLINGS!!

ATTEMPTING TO GET BACK IN THE PATTERN OF WRITING POETRY.
ENJOY...
[ REGARDS, HABIT ]
HUNGER // SIN
THERE IS NOTHING LESS THAN NEED,
OF FLESH UPON THE TEETH.
I WATCHED HER BLEED,
TORE HER THROUGH, AND SAW BONE UNDERNEATH.
ISN'T SHE BEAUTIFUL?
WASN'T SHE GRAND?
HE CALLED IT UNSUITABLE,
HE WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND.
IT MADE HIM SICK.
BUT IN TRUTH,
IT MADE ME TICK;
HOW BLOOD RAN DOWN, LIKE SMOOTH VERMOUTH
AS HE THINKS OF HER,
HUNGER RISES AGAIN.
AND THERE LIES NO WAY TO DETER,
FROM THE TRUE FOLLIES OF MEN.
LEFT DRUNK ON THE HIGH,
WITH THE FADED MEMORY OF TASTE.
AS IT LEAVES WITH A DESPERATE CRY,
I AM YET DRAWN TO YOUR DISGRACE.
INVITE ME IN,
PRAY I AM NOT STARVED.
MY TONGUE IS SWEET AS BITTER SIN,
AND ALL OF HUMANITY HAS MY REGARDS.

Do you think Archer is ever confronted with the realization that he is probably going to outlive Giovanni (just based on age alone, plus Gio's smoking habits)? I feel like it dawned on him when Giovanni ditched Rocket, had a breakdown and then just decided that he is going to off himself if/when that happens
Tbh Archer doesn't strike me as a type that would ponder on such things. Like, in general, and that not even considering that Giovanni in his eyes is pretty much idealised to hell and back. Acknowledging that Gio could just as well be gone one day would not be something Archer could consider, I think. Like, he is aware of Giovanni's weaknesses and failings, but those he just acknowledges without a second thought.
And that could be why Giovanni's disappearance hit him as hard as it did. I imagine that Archer wouldn't even consider the world without Giovanni in it as a possibility. But when Giovanni went and left, Archer had to face that wall. Of course, it's different when he's gone but just nowhere to be found, with Archer basically spearheading whatever the fuck he was in attempt to explicitly go against Gio's wishes just to have him back.
Death though... It's hard to say. I think Archer would also see Giovanni's well-being as his own responsibility, so maybe he could consider such as his own failing. I'm unsure if Archer would be suicidal though, not actively so at least. Giovanni means a lot for him, so he would struggle to find his own place again. He is dedicated to Team Rocket, obviously, but he can't imagine it without Giovanni leading it anyway, so what would be the point of continuing that?
Unless... *eyes Silver*

Okay, so we all know Charles Dickens was a huge Shakespeare fan and a theatre guy in general. Like, he did so many theatrical productions alongside Wilkie Collins and loved himself some dramatic readings of his own prose.
What I’m saying is that I kind of feel that “A Tale of Two Cities” lifts quite a lot from Shakespeare. For example, in both ATOTC and “Romeo and Juliet”, we have a story about two factions (the two countries of England and France in Dickens’ novel and the two noble houses of Montague and Capulet in Shakespeare’s play) who have been at each other’s throats for so long they don’t even quite remember why they’re at each other’s throats in the first place and what happens when two members of these respective factions (Sydney Carton and Charles Darnay in “A Tale of Two Cities” and Romeo Montague and Juliet Capulet in “Romeo and Juliet”) meet and become close to each other. And of course, both stories end with a desperate person sacrificing themselves for the one that they love with said sacrifice being less a noble and definitive ending to the story and more an act of desperation in the face of impending death (Carton takes Darnay’s place on the guillotine in a desperate attempt to buy Darnay, Lucie, and their daughter time to escape back to London while Juliet commits suicide in what is very likely a desperate attempt to escape from what she still sees as her impending arranged marriage to Count Paris). There’s also a strong parallel between the main character trio in “A Tale of Two Cities” and the main character trio in Shakespeare’s “Twelfth Night”, I.E…
•Both Viola and Charles Darnay are sweet, sensitive young nobles who find themselves living in a new land and assume new names in order to avoid suspicion and end up in a relationship they didn’t expect with the second character of the main trio.
•Both Olivia and Lucie Manette are smart, pious young women living in mourning for a dead or at least severely traumatised loved one and end up falling in love with the disguised protagonist while fending off the attentions of an annoying suitor (Malvolio for Olivia and Stryver for Lucie).
•Orsino and Sydney Carton are both the depressed young men uncertain of their purpose in life who become acquainted with Viola/Darnay while also being in love with Olivia/Lucie.
Where am I going with all this, by the way? Well basically, I’m kind of suggesting that there being queer subtext between Sydney Carton and Charles Darnay might actually have been intentional on Dickens’ part. However, because queerness was so verboten and punishable by prison or death in the 1850s, Dickens had to cloak all of this in ambiguity and subtext, using these allusions to classic Shakespeare plays as a way of coding/broadcasting his true intent to the audience who would know what he was doing.

OC-tober #20: Dickory Kingfisher
Week 3: Various sources.
Tumblr media
Portrait done in Artbreeder.
In the late 18th century, Dickory Kingfisher was a penniless but pretty youth who charmed, conned and slept his way to the fringes of high society in England. But when his luck ran out, his friends turned their backs, leaving Dickory first in debtors' prison and then, as more of his crimes were unveiled, sentenced to death by hanging.
While in prison waiting for his execution, he managed to call upon and make a bargain with a demonic being called Lady Six of the Lilitu. He did die on the noose; and once dead, he was brought back as Lady Six's agent on earth.
He got to start over again, eternally youthful, with magic at his command, and money beyond his dreams. The price for this is that Lady Six expects him to hunt for reprobates and deliver them to her, to appease her particular appetites.
His first attempt to return to London society was not successful, and he has learned to be more cautious since, as well as picking up his old lover, a solicitor by the name of Philip Sharpe, to be his valet and minion. Since then, he has lived the life of a scandalous wealthy young gentleman--all the way to the 20th century.
