I think it would be rly sick if you went to go build a crow rook and the surname was Arainai

like…. just another little compradi trying to bring glory back to your house - rinnala and taliesin are dead by the house’s hand, zevran failed and deserted, guili murdered in the night, all semblance of power lost once again. the house is trying to claw its way back up, futile as it seems. that’s the way of house arainai, isn’t it? talon to knife to talon to knife to nothing, same as it’s been since the house first lost power in the early dragon age. but you, bright-eyed little crow, you’ll break the cycle, won’t you? for the family?

after all, caterina’s prized heir is right there - the demon of vyrantium, the infamous mage killer, sleeping just down the hall. you can be quiet, can’t you? all those means at your disposal, and all the opportunities you could want. you could find a way in under that armor, get to something soft and bruisable and make it bleed. he’s far from home, isn’t he? without a friend? confidantes are few and far between - even a demon must get lonely.

maybe he’d even trust you. you’re a clever little bird, right? you can find something to exploit. after all, what does a would-be talon do except claw, except maim? what else would you be good for? there is no gentleness to crows - you are here to deliver a message: run, little demon, quick as you like.

house arainai will make carrion of you yet.

being away from home continues to be a godawful experience

One day, someone will ask me what my greatest accomplishment in life has been, and I will look back on the many things I've done, and reflect on those things I am most proud of. Then I will gesture to my dog and answer, "I was loved unconditionally and been allowed to love in return."

[arashi-no-saxlphone]

I don't like dogs cause they're needy and annoying but the thing is like, if you're mean to dogs I'm the first one to get violent about it. Because dogs are very good animals. They give out affection so relentlessly just for a crumb of that affection in kind. Loyal and full of love. Wolves decided that they would give up so much of themselves for safety and love and they're considered our "best friend" as a species all this time later. If you're mean to dogs I'll kill you. I get emotional about this because my dog annoys me so bad but I look at her and it's like "you're so unconditional with your love in a world that is cold and cruel, and in this moment I understand why you're always waiting at the window for my return - I wish people were like that too." I'm like the dad that goes "absolutelt not no pets we are not getting a dog" and then is the most attached to said dog. You have to be fucking nice to dogs.

It'd be really cool if my roommate would stop trying to hide my dog from me

Finally made a path to bring my 7 llamas home... had all 7 at my 'checkpoint' (spawn area), lost at least 1 since I found it still packed when I went back to spawn for Chester. And I murdered a traveling trader because my llamas kept trying to follow his train even when I had them on a lead.

Anyway I have 9 llamas now; White, Orange, Purple, Pink, Light Blue, Magenta, Yellow, Lime, and Brown. White is the mvp with 15 slots and brown is the baby with 3 slots... not sure what I'm going to do with all of them but they have a big-ish pen to chill in for now

There's a fluffy man in my bed

Lance's nephew, Kaz, is visiting for a week or so!

I'll never get over that white streak across his nose. It's not a natural marking. It's because he got his nose stuck in the ex-pen as a puppy and had to be rescued.

Always makes me think of this dude lol

having a manic episode today and I'm about to make it everyone's problem :)

[sylvanfreckles]

I just want to binge-watch Gravity Falls and play House Flipper until I feel less autistic.

I'm ignoring the buyers and pretending I'm setting up housing paid for by my secret fortune for marginalized individuals and families. That's a nice mansion you got there. Would be a shame if someone broke it up into six family apartments and planted a large vegetable garden.

had an interaction with a cat at my mother's friend's house (we dropped by to feed her while my mom's friend was out of town) and my mother said "i was surprised how much that cat liked you, she doesn't usually let people pet her but she followed you around and let you pet her a lot"

and in explaining to her my interaction with the cat i put into words a thing i'd never put into words before, having always automatically understood what i was doing. But once i put it into words my mother said she'd never thought of that and it felt like something worth sharing here.

This cat did a typical cat thing where she sniffed my fingers i was holding out, and then acted like she wanted me to pet her, but then when i started to move to pet her, moved her head away slightly to prevent it.

I instinctively understand this interaction, and stopped trying to pet her and moved back to a neutral position and waited to see if she would re-initiate an interaction.

Because this is basically a consent test. This is how a cat can assess "how closely are you paying attention to what i'm telling you" and "how respectful of my boundaries are you".

If i am responsive to her yes/no game, moving to pet her when she indicates i can, stopping immediately when she seems to change her mind, then she knows she can trust me to understand her, and also to respect her choices. That's what i did, so then she knew she could trust me and relax around me and enjoy my company. She was actually a very friendly and social little cat, who clearly wanted to make friends with me.

But if i had insisted on trying to pet her when she seemed to change her mind instead of simply understanding that she didn't want to be pet in that moment, she would have known she couldn't trust me to understand or respect her, and she would have treated me like she has to treat 90% of the people who visit that house, evidently.

I work mostly with dogs these days, but i grew up with cats too, and am generally good with animals. Many shy animals will also do this same "sniff sniff okay touch me nope just kidding" routine, especially if they've had experiences with people that make establishing that kind of communication and trust important to them.

And in fact, a lot of animals will do some version of this kind of consent test in a whole variety of situations. When well socialized dogs do that thing where they are rough housing and then they both stop suddenly for a moment until one of them play bows or makes a little pouncing motion and then they fly back into rough housing mode, that's what they are doing, they are doing a consent check-in, like "whoah this is getting wild, are you still in? are we still playing, is this still a good time for you?"

anyway, that's why this lovely little cat followed me around asking me to pet her the whole time we were visiting that house, because i showed her that i understood her signals and respected her boundaries, which is something i see a lot of both men and women not doing when interacting with cats and dogs.

there definitely needs to be some sort of exam people need to take before they own pets bc jesus christ some of you should not be owners

[transhowell-wizard]

i fucking LOVE having a cat. ive never had a pet that every night, without fail, stands guard in front of the bathroom door while i shower. she does this every night, even if she’s feeling standoffish that night and waits at the end of the hallway instead. she watches and waits and usually trills at me when i come out
