the loch ness monster
alr so im uk based and therefore i am a huge fan of nessie, shes up there in one of my favourite cryptids so i figured shed be a good first one of these posts so the style night change for the first couple posts like this until i get into the swing of it but lets fuckin go lads (all used sources will be listed at the end or linked when using a direct quote <3)
Nessie (also known more professionally as The Loch Ness Monster but whom I will solely refer to affectionately as Nessie) is a creature within Scottish folklore who inhabits Loch Ness. There are varying depictions of Nessie, however commonalities remain such as the typical long neck and one or more humps that show up from beneath the water. The existence of Nessie has never been proven (unfortunately) and is primarily anecdotal, with many debated photographs and sonar readings accredited as proof.
The first written account of Nessie existed in literally 565AD (that is fuckin wild). It occurs in a biography of St Columba, however, earlier local stone carvings of the creature by the Pict depict a flippered beast. In the biography of Columba, it is stated that the creature bit a swimmer and prepared to attack another man when Columba intervened, sending the creature away.
The story of Nessie really developed in 1933, a road alongside Loch Ness had just been developed, providing people driving along with a clear view of the lake. In the April of that year a couple saw a creature there which they compared to a "dragon or prehistoric monster" also claiming it crossed their car's path before disappearing into the water. This was reported in a Scottish newspaper and numerous sightings were claimed to have followed. In the December of that year, the Daily Mail then commissioned Marmaduke Wetherell, who was a big game hunter, to locate Nessie.
Along the shore of Loch Ness, Wetherell found large footprints that he believed belong to “a very powerful soft-footed animal about 20 feet [6 metres] long.” The footprints were then investigated by zoologists at the Natural History Museum and were believed to be made with an umbrella stand or lamp that had a hippopotamus leg as the base. There is no clear information of Wetherell's role in the hoax. Once this was proven and casts had been made, Wetherell was publicly ridiculed by the Daily Mail for this.
The news of this hoax, however, only seemed to motivate more efforts to look for and find evidence of the existence of Nessie.
The infamous "Surgeon's Photograph" of Nessie was reportedly taken by Robert Kenneth Wilson and depicts the trademark long neck associated typically with Nessie as seen below. This hoax was aided in no small part by the Daily Mail themselves, who published the photograph incredibly zoomed in, making it seem as though the alleged "creature" was somewhat bigger and to the scale witnesses had described Nessie to be. Wilson's photograph was actually revealed to have been lead by a vengeful Wetherell, the subject of the photograph actually being a plastic and wooden head tied to a toy submarine.
side by side of the "Surgeon's Photograph", the one on the left being the one published by the Daily Mail and the one on the right being the original picture
As a result of the "Surgeon's Photograph," it was speculated that Nessie may be a plesiosaur. A plesiosaur is a type of prehistoric, long-necked marine reptile of which fossils were found from between the late Triassic period to the late Cretaceous period (i.e. from 255 mil years ago to 66 mil years ago.)
Thanks to the popularity of Nessie, the area of Loch Ness has attracted many cryptid hunters. Many sonar searches have been committed in Loch Ness, notable ones being in 1987 and 2003, however none have turned up any proof of Nessie.
In 2018 researchers did a DNA comparison of creatures within the loch to determine the organisms that live in the water and by comparing with their database, seem to have ruled out the possibility of a plesiosaur, or any similar large creature, however a new theory was posed that Nessie may be a giant eel. The aim of this study was to determine the wild life that does reside in Loch Ness, rather than trying to determine if Nessie does, but it does remain beneficial to the cause.
The theory of Nessie being a giant eel has some merit as Juvenile eels (known as elvers) arrive in Scottish lochs and rivers after migrating from the Sargasso Sea where they typically lay eggs. Professor Neil Gemmel, a geneticist from the University of Otago in New Zealand who worked on the DNA comparison said, "Eels are very plentiful in Loch Ness, with eel DNA found at pretty much every location sampled - there are a lot of them." Therefore the likelihood of Nessie possibly being an eel is quite high. Later in the article, Gemmel goes onto say however that they are unaware the size of the eels in the loch however. Therefore, while Nessie could be a giant eel, unfortunately there is still no way of knowing.
While I have covered the history of Nessie and possibilities of what Nessie could be, a whole new post could be dedicated to just sightings of Nessie, so for now I'm just going to drop the link to the official log of sightings
(Side note: Nessie makes up a lot of money regarding Scotland's Tourism and on behalf of Nessie I am very sad she doesn't get any)
If you want to request a cryptid, send me more info or correct any info, or even just say hi, send me an ask, if you have a post submission or something similar, my submissions box is open <3
I do this for fun in my spare time so if you liked this and/or learned something pls like and/or rb <3

adopted baby Guard Din idea that I am never going to write
because it would involve logistics and quiet moments and idle life which I am very down for reading but cannot for the LIFE of me actually sit down and write
So the war ends, Palps is outed as a Sith and an asshole and dies somehow, and the Senate eventually decides that the clones do count as people and thus are allowed to leave the GAR if they want. Give the bureaucrats another few years and they might even give out backpay and citizenship, so long as you stay in the service--wait what do you mean the entire Guard is resigning. What do you mean they've already left orbit?? WHAT DO YOU MEAN THERE ARE NOW MILLIONS OF FILES ON THE HOLONET ABOUT THE SENATE'S SHADY DEALINGS???
Guard, collectively: lol cya suckers
Fox is of course one of the last ones out, and since this was all planned on the down low, everyone's been split into groups so they can take commercial flights, since they're not about to be accused of stealing ships. (They also leave their weapons and their armor behind, in a giant macabre pile in the middle of Corrie HQ. Even their helmets, their faces, they discard: it's time for a rebirth.)
He and Thorn and a few other Corries have a stopover on some tiny station, waiting a week for a delayed transport to arrive, and in the meantime they're approached by some locals who just fled the planet below. Separatist remnants attacked their homes, forcing them to leave everything and everyone behind; can the big strong clones do anything about it?
The Big Strong Clones: Oh shit we finally get to kick some Seppie ass? Sign us the FUCK up.
The eager group does not include Fox, who could not care less about the Separatists and would very much like to finally catch up on his sleep. Unfortunately that means that the group that goes down to the planet is Unsupervised.
(Thorn does not count as supervision. Thorn, bereft of Senate oversight, has finally allowed his Inner Chaos Gremlin to fully emerge. Thorn needs more supervision than the shinies.)
Thorn, three days later, waking Fox from half-hearted sleep by dropping an entire natborn child on him: Hey boss, look what we found! None of the refugees claimed him, so we called dibs. Can we keep him? Fox, staring at the child: ...
Din, staring back: ...
Fox: ...no..?
Din: *sad but understanding big brown eyes*
Fox: Nevermind this is my child now.
Din has gone from two parents to one parent and hundreds of overprotective brothers.
Eventually his group makes it to their destination, Din in tow. I am uncertain of what the destination is but it is a planet that is as far away from Coruscant that the Corries could find. I am tempted for Tatooine not because I like Tatooine (I share Anakin's loathing of sand and deserts) but because Luke's description of Tatooine in ANH was 'if there's a bright center to the universe, this is the planet the furthest from'.
Corries, hearing that: Fuck it sounds perfect.
Anyway they make it to Tatooine, there is probably purchasing of some shitty land/buildings that nobody wants out in the wastes bc crime, scum, villainy, etc, but it's not like they have problems taking care of anything that tries to mess with them.
Where did they get the funds?
Shh don't ask about it.
Stone takes up moisture farming. Thire takes up farming-farming. Thorn shoots gleefully at anything that shows up unannounced within a ten-mile radius. Literally everybody dotes on Din. There are a surprising amount of peaceful days.
Eventually some dumb shiny goes: Hey don't kids need friends? Shouldn't we set up some playdates for him or something?
The shiny is not called dumb for asking the question, but they are called dumb for thinking that the question would only ever be taken rhetorically. Fox disappears for two weeks and then comes back with a black eye and a yowling hissing Boba tucked under one arm, looking stupidly pleased with himself.
(Boba is also pleased to be back with people he knows will keep him safe. Boba will not admit to this under threat of death or dismemberment. Boba is a SERIOUS SCARY ADULT BOUNTY HUNTER.)
Boba also decides he will be Mortal Enemies with Din, which after about ten minutes of meeting him morphs into If Anyone Hurts Din I Will Kill Everyone In This Room And Then Myself because all clones be the same, really.
Din has gained another brother/bestie. (Or potential future boyfriend, whichever floats your boat.)
Somehow they still end up overthrowing the Hutts.
Officially the GAR knew and knows nothing about the Guard leaving Coruscant as soon as the metaphorical paint was dry on their sentient status.
Unofficially Fox's batch harangues him every single day for photos of his new kid(s). They eventually show up unannounced, demanding time with their nephew. (They are shot at by Thorn.)
Din gains five new uncles.
The batch proudly show pics and holos to their battalions. Din gains millions of new uncles.
Fox finally gets a full night's sleep.
#tcw#tcw fanfiction#commander fox#din djarin#coruscant guard#someone else should write that#tho tbh it's mostly written here just in rambling infodump form#btw this is half-inspired bc red is both baby din and fox's color#din is nonverbal for a little while because Trauma#and gets nicknamed 'Kit'#Fox refuses to be pleased about this#Fox is extremely smugly pleased about this

Sonic having unexpected bits of secondhand expertise that he gets from his friends:
His coding skills wouldn't last a single second against anyone actually competent but he can hack Shadow's Netflix password every time it changes.
He knows how to brew a perfect cup of tea and also how to bake exactly one (1) cake.
Around the specific latitudes that Angel island tends to float around in he goes looking for a particular kind of edible plant that a certain someone showed him how to identify. He likes to snack on it when he's bored.
He's able to estimate the value of a piece of jewelry based off the quality of the gem. Knows the difference between a 'karat' and a 'carat'.
He can look at bullet holes and have a decent guess at the caliber of the gun that shot them. He could also, in a pinch, fully disassemble a HK45 Tactical pistol and put it back together again.
Fishing. You get the idea.

Buddie: it's The Way It's Played
Aka don't hate the player hate the game or whatever.
(i promise the is Buddie at the halfway point if you just want meta)
I woke up pondering about edy's comments and found it a bit funny and ironic because she probably doesn't know just like we don't know.
Oliver recently talked about how he wasn't heavily involved in this upcoming episode 2 so he'll be getting to watch it for the first time with us.
It's the same case with her. In her eyes she does her few scenes and goes home.
In her head she is the chosen love interest and she is indeed being asked to come back.
The second half of the season hasn't publicly been announced (or fully filmed I assume) so she's just as oblivious as we are.
What I will say is that celebrities should know to not be in the spaces of fandom and don't get heavily involved.
Especially with shippers.
As a fangirl I have always been protective, I would say, over my stuff but I made like a rule that I don't reply or have online arguments.
(mostly because i get riled up easily in real life and it's dangerous imagine doing it with a complete stranger or a mob of them if we're being fr because there's never just one person arguing with you.)
It's likely millions or billions 🙃
Also as a fangirl, I don't mind shipping or not shipping.
Do what you want, I don't care.
I grew up in the good ole don't like scroll away time.
What I'm getting at is that some people are more comfortable on online spaces. Some are more quiet (like me) but they're there.
I've recently become disillusioned slowly over the years of Hollywood ( all the woods honestly) glamour so when they are shown or said to be bad people I treat them as such.
Cause they're that.
People.
Who do good and bad stuff all the time.
Granted we don't a camera or constant surveillance or record (or funds) all the time, but I'd bet we said/did bad stuff.
Now in Hollywood's case their stuff is mainly criminal/jail/wtf is going on over there?!??!
In her case, I'm not surprised.
There's people who are homophobic/transphobic and everyphobic (and -ist!!) in the world so of course they would be in show business.
Cause they're people. We got people (like millions of them, a concerning number in worldwide leadership positions but that's a story for another day...) like that all over.
Celebrities are not and never will be role models. They are public images projected onto a pretty body.
That's also the reason why I'm saying that she should shut her computer and cut her losses.
(a lot of celebrities should do that honestly)
But, it does let you know who to support and who not to.
And I'd rather know my enemy rather than worship a perfect image honestly.
I also think it's unwise to fight the people who are literally indirectly paying your bills.
There are 93k people (just on Tumblr) who ship the guys.
Even I know better and I'm a fan.
(i think it's because I'm a fan and ik how it can get I'm just an observer cause whew 😥😮💨)
That's not counting the ones not active here or casuals who agree with the pairing.
If they pay your bills walk on eggshells ma'am. You're job quite literally hinges on people liking you.
So be likable.
(once again I will reiterate as a fan/human with a heart let me know how bad you are so I don't give you my love if you're a bad person with shady morals.)
But as an observer it's like just shhhhhh. Please. The Internet is forever. There is no timeline for it. What are you doing??
If I'd say it it's like watching you drive a burning car driving down the street and you're sitting in it proudly waving and hitting people but insist you're right or a good person.
I'm just shocked at some people's let's say narrow thinking aka limited timeline thinking.
Fans and the Internet didn't forget. They will find you.👹
But I wanna talk about Buddie now!
Okay.
Now that we've criticized celebrity culture and the response of ms. Edy and her bad mindset (aka lack of critical reading and decision making with fandoms and responses in general also queerphobia?!) that honestly I appreciate.
Be a bad apple in public.
Imma stand on business.
Expeditiously 😤.
Bye bye support and hello uproar.
But back to Buddie 😘😚🤗😝, I wanna be clear I am a fan but I am also very critical of media.
It's the way they act.
Literally.
The reason Buddie even exists and is accepted is it's literally there. (Their fault)
There is no subtext.
The actors play it as such, the directors direct it as such and the marketing play it as such.
I'm a bit upset seeing y'all called clowns (although i hope it's said affectionately cause tone indicators or the lack of) because you're not crazy.
They quite literally put the battery in y'all backs so it shouldn't be surprising if the battery is more high powered than expected.
You are not misreading anything.
Most people just choose to ignore the signs because
(the church! Homophobia! All rhe -ias and ists!)
Truly our downfall as a modern society.
Anyways, as a writer and heavy media consumer there's no mistakes.
Every wprd is carefully chosen, every shot has a purpose and every cut is done. These things are practiced a thousand times, edited, retaked a thousand times if they have to.
There's no mistakes in media. It's literally made to influence, persuade and educate.
Nothing is a coincidence!
But after reading a few interviews and listening to the fandom I think we can also say with confidence they've been playing it as a romance.
There's nothing platonic.
They have platonic couples on the show.
That
is not it.
Even if you see it as pure writing without the context of their acting choices.
Let's say kitchen scene.
You wanna work it out in the ring (throws playful punches)
I'd take you.
I wouldn't do that. You're on blood thinners.
Buck steps closer to playfully intimidate him.
You wanna go for the title?
Now pause.
Ik we all know that scene religiously and can only see it as insane (because they are. It is.) but I read it in my mind as a blank sheet of paper and couldn't help but wonder.
Why would you say it like that?!??!!?
Mr. Oliver Stark and Mr. Ryan Guzman I sentence you will eternal jail cause wtfff?
I imagined it more platonically. You can quite literally put, let's say, Hen and Chim in that same scenario. Damn even Eddie and Chim.
Their acting choices would reflect that. Hell, read the lines without looking (or hearing their insane intonation) and imagine your best friend. Any friend for that matter.
It wasn't playful, it was well, sexually tense. 🤷🏾♀️
Ps i love buck 1.0 and was shooketh to see his return because i watched the show backwards. i did season 2-6 in like a week then begrudgingly did season 1. Me nah like abby ...
They are choosing to act it out as a romance.
Now that could lend itself to male partnership in movies (and real life) where they went to war together that were usually where gay/queer men had partnerships/relationships in every sense of the word.
The shows ain't got it from nothing. 🤷🏾♀️
There's always truth in fiction.
I also find out a bit hilarious to imagine the director tried to get them to stop but the takes were either too good or they kept pushing the envelope and the editors were like yes. 🤗
I will put this shot of them longingly staying at each other instead of the slightly less neutral one.
Or cut when they say we're the only ones who don't have kids (+buck) then cut to Buck being a good dad! 🤗
On a bit of a more serious note let's say it is a bit of manipulation of the masses marketing wise.
The show is very queer friendly with a (black!) lesbian couple, a gay man, an engaged (black!) gay couple and many queer stories of different races in their cases that are told wonderfully.
I acknowledge and comment them for it but ..
The big problem is how Buddie is treated. (Or rather the very rational people who ship them)
(which their name is kind of funny because I link it to buddy cop movies that can be homoerotic when they feel like it and buddie is technically that trope)
Homosexual media (in the case of film) has always been subtext, hidden, stereotyped, twisted or been outright secret messages for the girls to uncode (cause religion 🤷🏾♀️).
It has only been like very recent that queer people have been gaining respect in media so it's not surprising.
What life was like in 2019 to now in terms of queer media is like night and day. The same would be for the 2000s. Gay was used as an insult. The world is quite literally changing before our eyes.
In their case, the elf scene is said to be a wink at the audience.
But the actors took it seriously. So we do as well.
Aka the battery put in they back.
They respect the same vision. 😤goated
The chemistry is undeniable, and the tropes they have parallel a lot of romantic things used historically in media. (And in the show *bathena* but🤷🏾♀️)
It's not an accident to say that if one of them had been female (aka the "acceptable" pairing) they'd have been together.
You could argue that if he'd been with Maddie like intended they'd be together. And little jiyun would be a sister.
She might be a Jane actually??
Back on topic.
I found it interesting when watching like a compilation (cause i did nawt watch the show before become a buddie fan) and found it hilarious because it was like their normal behavior and i felt the romantic tension shift. It was like whoooaaa holup. The air shifted.
It's very easy to spot it because at the first few episodes it was very platonic then it became very side eye....
What do you mean he's cute? What do you mean wanna go for the title?
(That scene is eternally insane)
What do you mean with other couples they're paired as a family? Consistently?
What do you mean the kid and you go on solo family outings to the zoo? Constantly? For years?
You take care of him like all the time?
What do you mean he's your kid's legal guardian and partly the reason you lived after being trapped in a well?
The actors play it romantically. Ryan does cause I remember step up.
After like a year together? Over his family? Who are not firefighters??
Ik how he is when he's flirting.
The show also (unfortunately) writes their love interests as tools of self growth for them (which can be a bit problematic cause the women aren't being treated three dimensionally characters men get to be. the two who were closest were abby, and Taylor. Shannon was so so for me personally. Which is odd because they have complex main females it's just unfortunate that the women they have for them are rarely people outside of the relationship and that's why it falls apart in the case of their relationship/people getting invested).
Nobody is quite literally written as important to each other like them. They are in a relationship no doubt. We can say queer platonic now (as they are raising a kid together?!??!! Like come on. Chim and Hen aren't like Buck and Ed. Also the good cop bad cop scene?)
It's just not sexual I'd say.
Cause emotionally, mentally all that is there.
And they could absolutely play it "straighter" 🥴 cause I've seen a plethora of male friendships (slight side eye ry we got buddy cop movies galore don't play with me!!!) where they support each other.
They don't act like that!!!! Look at this and tell me I'm wrong!
(i feel insane but I'm not i swear)
the lighting, the cut, the conversation im melting~~~!!!!
It's not inaccurate to say that the way they're written (and acted!!) is more romantic than platonic.
I'd assume they couldn't let the two hot men who represent "manliness" be together because they didn't fit into a (gay) stereotype.
But they will gladly let you advertise their show to the high heavens and bring in millions of dollars in revenue, which does upset me ngl but 🤷🏾♀️ hey, can't hate the player hate the game right?

can I get an info dump on how you feel about princess celestia and or twilight
GIGGLES I'm glad to see interest in them !!! (assuming this is AU related)
I haven't fleshed out Twilight's and the Princesses backgrounds very much- mainly because I can't think of anything to change, but compared to in-show Twilight, the rewrite AU one is much more. quiet and threatening if you don't know her well- she's kinda got that thousand yard stare and she's more or less completely non-verbal. Her name also changes in the AU! From Twilight Sparkle to Meteor Strike!
(Here, have some old concept art!)
And as expected, Meteor- the socially awkward barely verbal anxiety horse is NOT happy when she's made a princess on the spot Speaking just off the top of my head, I think it would lead her to resent Celestia a bit for putting something so big on her without even asking, and she might begin to connect with Luna a bit more, sharing how it felt Celestia sort of just. Does stuff without asking- like she knows what’s best always. I think this would accumulate in them confronting Celestia and telling her “hey we know you think this is what's best but it’s actually not. Please ask before you make such big changes.” Celestia takes it hard at first but eventually understands sometimes she needs to take a step back and not assume.
If this where an actual MLP episode, it would probably go something along the lines of Celestia making assumptions on how to help without asking constantly, leading to a LOT of unhappy ponies confronting her on it and Celestia at the end writing what SHE learnt for once- "Sometimes you think you know what's best for somepony, but today I learnt it's important to ask before you make such big assumptions. A good friend always makes sure their friend is comfortable, rather than simply assuming they are."
Speaking of Luna and Celestia! These designs were originally made completely separate as a way to mess around with a "biblically accurate princesses" idea, but I think they could fit really nicely into this AU with a few minor tweaks!
(Sorry for such low quality, I had to pluck them from an old twitter post because I can't find the Sai file I drew them on)
That would also probably mean Meteor would gain "biblically accurate" qualities after her 'graduation' over time... Which would probably make her even freakier looking to outsiders LMAO
I also imagine the process of transformation is VERY painful for the immediate part of the spell (growing wings/a horn), and for the rest it takes time to form. What I mean by that is when a pony is made an alicorn via magic it's pulling magic from their body to form entirely new limbs, nervous systems, shifting magical components to specific parts- which is PAINFUL. And when these limbs are formed, they're small- over time they'll grow, like a butterfly emerging from a chrysalis! They've emerged from their cocoon, but it still takes time for them to pump fluids into their wings before they can fly! Which means Meteors wings are more or less useless for a few months...
(“Really? I don’t even get to use these things??”)

Some of my favorite things about foxes
- They’re very smart animals (seriously, have heard from multiple people that rescued foxes from places like fur farms that they can and will make you feel stupid)
- They’re highly energetic
- In the winter they’re extremely fluffy
- They’re extremely vocal and have a very wide variety of vocalizations
- Female foxes are extremely good mothers!!! In fact they’re one of the only known species who will take in orphaned kits and raise them as their own
- Some foxes will make noises that sound a lot like laughter when they’re happy
- To hunt in the winter they jump up and dive headfirst into the snow to try to catch things hiding under the snow
- Red foxes actually can have a pretty wide variety of coloration- the red and brown one is just the most common
- Red foxes also have 5 toes on their front paws instead of 4
- Fennec foxes are the only fox species known to live in groups, usually living in dens of up to 12! Their dens also sometimes interconnect with other dens like a little apartment system!
- Fennec foxes have extra fur on their feet, meaning their paws are very fluffy! This fur is to help them run on the sand without burning themselves and to give them traction
- Grey foxes are the only fox species that can climb vertically (similar to cats, including also having retractable claws)

whos spite
Oh, no one too important.
He's just the Invidian Counterpart to Tails. Although don't be surprised if I use Spite's name to refer to Anti-Miles. This is mostly due to Invidia being loosely based after the concept of Anti-Mobius in Archie.
I do mean loosely though, since I:
A) have not and do not wish to Read Archie past the 8 issues I consumed for Eclipse.
B) Built up Invidia on components that Archie didn't have.
I don't have a lot of art of him that's cleaned up and not sorta messy. Most of these are old and not indicative of the art style I will take when I finally do more with these guys. The plot and world building for Invidia is proving to be... A mess and a half seeing as when I put it on the Sonic timeline.
Although, since I'm feeling a bit funny I'll give you some lore for Spite in Invidia.
Spite is a culpeo fox, which is actually more closely related to wolves than true foxes. Due to this, he actually hates being referred to as a Fox.
Spite's name, while he owns pride in it, was originally intended to be an insult. The same goes for Scourge though, so it's not surprising he took up the name.
Scourge and Spite have an... Unusual relationship. Let's just say, Scourge needs Spite and it's not the other way around. Although, Spite does have a complex set of emotions attached to Scourge to keep him from leaving the tenrec for too long.
Like most of Scourge's boyfriends, Spite owns an Anarchy Beryl. He wears it as a choker mostly. Mostly in reaction to Aura getting an anarchy beryl from Scourge.
#phantoms#museum#!!!#Spite the culpeo fox#scourge the tenrec#Invidia lore#scourge#Invidia#this is such a wild AU#and it wouldn't have ever came about#if i didn't have to listen to a friend of mind infodump about Archie for months on end until they FINALLY finished it#took them like half a year or something#in the process i never became so weirdly obessed over a stupid green Hedgehog in my life#i was originally gonna rename scourge for Invidia#but stuck with Scourge cuz the name goes to hard and i couldn't replace it if i tried#Miles tho? it sucked and Spite came drown from the Heavens as a rename#been building this AU ever since
