15 Questions tag game

The rules are: Answer the 15 questions and tag 15 of your mutuals.

Tagged by @echoghost1 , ty Echo!! :D

1. Are you named after anyone? 

Ohh okay so this one is kinda fun because I technically am on four counts! My legal first and middle names both came from two different people ( one a famous author, the other my great great great ( great? I think it’s 4 ) aunt. The other two counts come from chosen names! while I’m not positive how much raven counts ( chosen at 13 because of raven teen titans haha ), Alva is another name I chose for myself that came from an ancestor on my moms side

2. When was the last time you cried? 

Last week? I think? Shit’s been kinda stressful all of a sudden

3. Do you have kids?

I babysat a couple of kids for a few months when I was like 18-ish and worked a job that had a daycare room, and I absolutely adored them to the point my mom started referring to them as my kids, but I am neither a legal guardian nor still in contact since the place went out of business so I’m gonna have to answer no to that one

4. What sports do you play/have played? 

Ohh man okay i don’t think I’ve done any sports since I was like. 10 years old, max. I briefly did soccer, and then basic ballet and tap lessons; I had a couple group recitals, but never advanced past flats, and honestly did not retain even muscle memory on anything

5. Do you use sarcasm?

I can’t because I’m the kind of awkward that struggles with tone inflection and quick wit so when I try people always think I’m serious 😔 

6. What's the first thing you notice about people? 

Something that can be complimented, generally.

Like, one of the things I do as someone with a customer facing job, is actively look for things to complement people on, for a multitude of reasons. It’s def not some kind of a requirement for my position, but more just that I like to break up the basic check-out process a little by finding something that I can genuinely appreciate ( which, the more I’ve done this the wider an appreciation of people’s personal style preferences I’ve had in general ) and communicating to them I like it, which never fails to brighten up an interaction.

It’s honestly really great too, because people often like to share the story behind the things I compliment, and I love to hear those stories, so it’s a good balance I think!

7. What's your eye color? 

I’ve always been told they’re brown but I’m like 98% certain they’re actually hazel? But the definitions of hazel I see are very, well, hazy tbh, and I’m afraid to commit to being 100% certain lmao

8. Scary movies or Happy endings? 

I like both BUT the happy endings I’d really like to have a lot of toil and angst and maybe a lil tragedy first—I want that happy ending to have blood stains that are over time bleached away by sunlight, but forever imprinted onto the fabric

9. Any talents? 

Idk if I’d describe myself as talented in any manner, but that’s mostly because I prefer to think in terms of skill-set over natural talent

That said, I have never formally—or informally really, for that matter—studied gemstones, but I can recognize and name a decent number of them on sight relatively easily, and have ID’d multiple pieces of tanzanite jewelry first try ( something where every individual, all unrelated, who was wearing said jewelry have said I’m the first person to not only think it was something other than sapphire, but to also know instantly. All I can really offer as to how I know is “its just the way it is” because ig the color and shine differences aren’t as easily noticeable to everyone else? ). It’s a side effect of having a detail focused mind that I’m honestly really proud of

10. Where were you born? 

Nice try sucker you’re not getting the answer to my online account security question THAT easily

11. What are your hobbies? 

Drawing

opening new tabs from my YouTube recommendations side bar for every song title that looks interesting and seeing how much new music I can find in one sitting before I get bored

finding hyper specific and sometimes rare things people I know haven’t been able to find and then buying it for them

googling the fuck out of some random ass thing that just came up in conversation until I have a bunch of new fun facts on the subject

sewing

and more!

12. Do you have any pets? 

LOTS

context: my family runs a small hobby farm, + we have our indoor pets ( only cats for indoor now ), we’ve had a variety of livestock over the years, but currently it’s just sheep and chickens for outdoor

13. How tall are you?

Just a lil over 5’5” but not quite 5’6” ( no I don’t need to be that specific but the doctor commented on it last time she took my height and damn if I won’t take the small win )

14. Favourite subject in school?

Mmmmm I’m gonna automatically disqualify art just to make this slightly more challenging for myself.. probably Astronomy? Tbh I’ve never been able to wrap my head around enough math concepts to understand a lot of science formulas, so that whole portion of it didn’t quite work out for me, but I enjoyed the fuck outta reading the textbook

15. Dream Job? 

Oh okay this one is actually really specific, but. Making an anime / cartoon style comic and / or illustrations and maybe a variety of other artwork for NASA, no this position does not exist but I want it IMMENSELY

Hooooo this got a LOT longer than I expected lmao

[silverislander]

hello hello im here to learn about juno please 🤲 2, 10, 12, 18, 23, 28, 30, 33 and 34? :3

FUCK YEAH THAT'S SO MANY

2. what sort of music would they like? have you thought about what genres or bands do they lean towards? do they have a favourite song?

yes!! i have playlists for p much all of my dnd characters inc her. i know she likes classical music, a lot of instrumentals, she has a much more formal taste than most of my other characters (cal gets rock music, neri gets pop). the playlist tends to be more so stuff that i like listening to that fits them than stuff they'd listen to tho, so it's not very representative of her tastes. the song i usually associate her with is nuvo orchestra's merry-go-round of life from howl's moving castle, mostly bc i see it playing during One backstory scene

10. if they wear jewelry, what kind? do they prefer silver or gold? do they have a favourite gem?

she doesn't tend to wear much! that's a little surprising given how formally she tends to dress and less surprising given that she's butch and watches haven't been invented yet. she usually only has earrings (usually just plain black ones, sometimes gold if it's an Occasion) and a gold tie pin. that pin was given to her by her best friend who she is Gal Pals with (they're not together but god they should be. Circumstances keep them apart) and it's her spellcasting focus as well. i think she'd probably like tanzanite! she likes dark purple and blue

12. how long have they been around? do you know their birthday? is their birthday the day you made them or another day? what do they think of celebrating birthdays?

iirc i made her two years ago during the summer! mostly made her up while i was bored at work knowing that my friend group was planning on playing strahd soon. best i got for her birthday is that it's midwinter, i didn't specify beyond that. i think she likes birthdays but she's not going to go crazy abt it. she's introverted so she'll probably stay home or just walk around town, get herself a small treat and head home again to read for a while (unless keziah, juno's not-gf and government assigned extrovert, interrupts her to drop by and demands an actual celebration), but she'd be happy to plan a party for someone else who would enjoy one more. probably plans keziah's every year

18. their opinion on lying, stealing, and killing?

ok so unlike cal (and neri, who is an impressionable child) juno actually has Morals. she's never killed a person and doesn't want to, lying is wrong, stealing is wrong. Unless. and this is a big unless. it's necessary and unavoidable. if lying will save your life, it's ok to lie. if you have to kill to survive, then you have to do what must be done. if, like juno, you're a dhampir who has to feed on human spinal fluid in order to live without blinding migraines and what is essentially withdrawals, it's ok to steal that/ask your best friend to do medical malpractice a little bit so you don't lose your mind from hunger. this is going to be really fun in practice bc her whole party are almost all "violence won't solve this problem but it might create newer, more fun problems so we can't rule out the possibility" people

23. how would you describe their voice? can they sing?

bc it's dnd i regrettably have to do juno's voice so it's a bit hard ghsdfdjkk. i do an australian accent while playing her (probably not a good one. but who cares) and i think i tend to speak at around the same pitch i usually do. she sounds kind of shy and can talk a bit on the slower side. i don't think she's an excellent singer, but she can probably carry a tune!

28. how do they show that they care about someone? how do they express that they don't like someone?

oh i think abt this a LOT. so it's hard to get juno to genuinely admit that she hates someone bc she wants everyone to like her and think she's a good person so fucking bad. the guy who turned her by literally injecting her with vampire blood? now she does hate him, he ruined her life. but the worst she really does abt it is give him the cold shoulder, trash talk him to friends and hold a lifelong grudge. she won't blow up on someone she dislikes unless they do smth awful first, she's going to keep all of that inside until it eats away at her and try to remain civil

she is a big acts of service person if she likes someone tho. my favourite example is w her and keziah bc keziah bakes, but she's really, really bad at it. the only thing she's made successfully is sugar cookies, everything else burns, is undercooked or just tastes awful and she won't stop bc keziah needs to be good at this and also everything else she does ever. and juno eats anything keziah gives her. no matter how bad it tastes juno will try to choke it down, at least some of it, to make her feel better. she has literally gotten food poisoning over it and she'd do it again. like if juno is friends with you you're gonna know bc she's going to be trying to do your chores for you or offering to deal with that thing you didn't want to do. every time she goes home to visit her parents she winds up weeding the garden w her mom even tho she hates gardening

30. do they smell like anything notable?

probably tea! she really likes tea, also uses it to hide the taste of spinal fluid when she drinks it so she has it often. i think she likes fruity kinds like apple or raspberry :) and/or ink, bc this is the era of writing with quills

33. if applicable, how would your other characters describe them? i mean specifically the people around them.

it really depends on who you ask, bc people have some varied ideas of her. i think most of her coworkers (who she was around most of the time) would say she seems nice enough but they don't really feel like they know her, maybe kind of cagey/nervous but really into her subject. the party, at least as of rn, would probably call her an uptight nerd. they're both pretty correct lol

34. how would your character describe themselves? it doesn't have to line up with how they really are.

i think she'd be like... objectively correct, just on the facts? but her self image is just FUCKED. juno calls herself a teacher first, introduces herself as dr vanidestine half the time, would probably talk abt her job more than her personal traits. the problem is that 1. she is very self conscious but also 2. literally thinks she can outsmart the demon she's bound to serving. she won't say she's smarter than anyone, but she does really think she's smarter than most of the people she knows. it's kind of insidious bc she can't know how incorrect her self perception is, and it's abt to bite her in the ass

How to Identify Authentic Yellow Tanzanite: A Guide for Buyers

Tanzanite is a rare and highly sought-after gemstone, renowned for its striking blue to violet hues. However, yellow tanzanite is a lesser-known variety that has been gaining attention in the jewelry world. Unlike the more common blue tanzanite, yellow tanzanite offers a unique and eye-catching color. For buyers, understanding how to identify authentic yellow tanzanite is crucial to ensure that they are investing in a genuine gemstone. This guide will help you navigate the process of identifying authentic yellow tanzanite and make an informed purchase.

What Is Yellow Tanzanite?

Tanzanite is a variety of the mineral zoisite and is found exclusively in Tanzania. While most tanzanite exhibits a blue or violet hue, yellow tanzanite is a rare color variation caused by the presence of trace elements in the mineral. Yellow tanzanite can range in color from a pale, lemony yellow to a deeper golden hue. It is this vibrant, sunshine-like color that sets yellow tanzanite apart from other gemstones.

Why Is Yellow Tanzanite Rare?

Yellow tanzanite is rare because the conditions necessary to produce this color variation are extremely specific. Unlike the more common blue or violet tanzanite, which is enhanced through heat treatment, yellow tanzanite typically does not require enhancement to achieve its color. The rarity of yellow tanzanite makes it highly desirable among collectors and gem enthusiasts.

The Importance of Identifying Authentic Yellow Tanzanite

Given its rarity and growing popularity, it is essential for buyers to be able to distinguish authentic yellow tanzanite from imitations or treated stones. Counterfeit gemstones are a common issue in the market, and unscrupulous sellers may try to pass off treated or synthetic stones as authentic. Identifying genuine yellow tanzanite can help you avoid falling victim to such scams and ensure that you are purchasing a valuable gemstone.

Characteristics of Authentic Yellow Tanzanite

1. Color

The most important factor when identifying yellow tanzanite is its color. Authentic yellow tanzanite will have a natural, even hue, ranging from pale yellow to deep golden. The color should be vibrant but not overly intense or artificial-looking. Be cautious of stones with extreme color saturation, as they may have been treated or enhanced.

2. Clarity

Like other varieties of tanzanite, yellow tanzanite typically has excellent clarity. Authentic stones will be free of significant inclusions, though minor imperfections may be present. These minor inclusions should not detract from the overall beauty of the stone. If a yellow tanzanite appears cloudy or has many visible inclusions, it may be of lower quality or a synthetic stone.

3. Cut

The cut of yellow tanzanite is crucial for maximizing its brilliance and color. A well-cut stone will exhibit excellent light reflection, making the yellow color appear more vivid. Authentic yellow tanzanite should be cut with precision, and the facets should be well-defined. Poorly cut stones may appear dull or lifeless.

4. Weight and Size

Tanzanite is a relatively dense gemstone, so authentic yellow tanzanite will have a good weight relative to its size. Be wary of stones that feel unusually light for their size, as this may indicate that the stone is synthetic or treated. Additionally, larger yellow tanzanites are extremely rare, so if you come across a large stone at a suspiciously low price, it may not be genuine.

Testing Methods for Authenticity

There are several methods that gemologists use to determine whether a gemstone is genuine. Buyers can request these tests to confirm the authenticity of yellow tanzanite before making a purchase.

1. Visual Inspection

A visual inspection by a trained gemologist can reveal a lot about the authenticity of a yellow tanzanite. The gemologist will examine the stone under magnification to check for inclusions, fractures, and any signs of treatment. While visual inspection alone cannot definitively prove authenticity, it is an important first step in the process.

2. Refractive Index (RI) Test

Tanzanite has a specific refractive index that can be measured using a refractometer. The refractive index of tanzanite typically falls between 1.691 and 1.700. A stone with a refractive index outside of this range is likely not genuine tanzanite. The RI test is a reliable way to distinguish tanzanite from other gemstones that may look similar.

3. Pleochroism Test

Tanzanite is pleochroic, meaning it displays different colors when viewed from different angles. Authentic yellow tanzanite will show pleochroism, typically displaying a range of colors from yellow to blue or violet depending on the angle. A gemologist can use a dichroscope to observe this effect and verify the stone’s authenticity.

4. UV Light Test

Under ultraviolet (UV) light, tanzanite often exhibits a pale blue fluorescence. This characteristic can help distinguish it from other yellow gemstones, such as yellow sapphire or citrine, which may not exhibit the same fluorescence. A UV light test can provide further confirmation that the stone is indeed tanzanite.

5. Certification

One of the most foolproof ways to ensure that you are purchasing authentic yellow tanzanite is to buy a certified stone. Reputable laboratories such as the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) or the American Gem Society (AGS) can provide certification that verifies the stone’s authenticity. A certified yellow tanzanite will come with a report detailing its color, clarity, cut, and origin, giving buyers peace of mind.

Common Imitations and Treatments

1. Heat Treatment

While blue and violet tanzanite is commonly heat-treated to enhance its color, yellow tanzanite is typically not treated in this way. If a yellow tanzanite has been heat-treated, its color may appear unnatural or overly saturated. Be sure to ask the seller if the stone has undergone any treatments and request documentation to verify its natural state.

2. Synthetic Tanzanite

Synthetic tanzanite is created in a laboratory and can be difficult to distinguish from natural tanzanite without the proper testing. Synthetic stones may have similar optical properties to natural stones, but they lack the rarity and value of authentic tanzanite. Always ask for certification when purchasing yellow tanzanite to ensure that you are not buying a synthetic stone.

3. Imitation Stones

Yellow tanzanite can sometimes be confused with other yellow gemstones, such as citrine, yellow sapphire, or yellow topaz. These stones may look similar in color but have different optical properties and values. A refractive index test or pleochroism test can help distinguish yellow tanzanite from these imitation stones.

Tips for Buying Authentic Yellow Tanzanite

1. Buy from Reputable Sellers

One of the best ways to ensure that you are purchasing authentic yellow tanzanite is to buy from a reputable seller. Established jewelers and gemstone dealers are more likely to provide genuine, certified stones. Be wary of online sellers or auctions that offer tanzanite at prices that seem too good to be true.

2. Request Certification

As mentioned earlier, certification from a reputable gemological laboratory is essential when purchasing yellow tanzanite. A certified stone comes with a detailed report that verifies its authenticity, giving you confidence in your purchase.

3. Inspect the Stone in Person

Whenever possible, inspect the yellow tanzanite in person before buying. This allows you to assess the stone’s color, clarity, and cut. If buying online, ensure that the seller offers a return policy so that you can have the stone inspected by a gemologist upon receipt.

4. Ask Questions

Don’t be afraid to ask the seller questions about the yellow tanzanite. Inquire about the stone’s origin, any treatments it may have undergone, and whether it comes with certification. A reputable seller will be transparent and provide all the necessary information.

Conclusion

Yellow tanzanite is a rare and beautiful gemstone that can make a unique addition to any jewelry collection. However, identifying authentic yellow tanzanite requires a keen eye and knowledge of the stone’s characteristics. By understanding the key traits of genuine yellow tanzanite, requesting certification, and buying from reputable sellers, you can confidently invest in this stunning gemstone.

By following this guide, you will be well-equipped to identify authentic yellow tanzanite and avoid potential scams, ensuring that your purchase is a valuable and genuine addition to your collection.

What You Need To Know About Gemstone Jewelry

Gemstones are separated into two categories

Precious stones

Precious gemstones differ in value based on their quality, rarity, and beauty of color. There are only four types of precious gemstones: diamond, sapphire, ruby, and emerald. Therefore, other gemstones are referred to as semi-precious. This distinction stems from the hardness of the gemstones, which translates to their resistance to scratching. Each type of gemstone is harder than another if it can scratch the other. Only a diamond can scratch another diamond. However, even diamonds can crack if subjected to a strong impact.

2.Semi-precious stones

Gemstones other than these four are considered semi-precious. There are many other gemstones, but the most commonly found include alexandrite, agate, amethyst, aquamarine, garnet, lapis lazuli, moonstone, opal, pearl, peridot, rose quartz, spinel, tanzanite, tourmaline, turquoise, and zircon.

The classification of gemstones occurred during a time when gemology was not as advanced as it is today, leading to many misidentifications. For example, spinel was often mistaken for ruby due to its color.

Many gemologists agree that this classification system is outdated and inaccurate, as some precious gemstones are more readily available than semi-precious ones. For instance, sapphires are more abundant than tanzanite!

Sapphire is the second most popular choice for engagement rings after diamonds and is classified as a precious gemstone. However, tanzanite is an extremely rare gem, as it is mined only in Tanzania, yet it is still considered semi-precious and has a lower value in comparison.

Although this system is still used for gemstone classification, there are currently no strict guidelines for determining which gemstones are precious or semi-precious.

Why are Colored Gemstones so Popular Right Now?

Colored gemstones have been admired by people around the world for centuries. However, in recent years, colored gemstones have rapidly gained popularity. Whether on runways, red carpets, or magazine covers, colored gemstones are everywhere.

The increased interest in colorful gemstones doesn't mean that diamonds have lost their top spot. Diamonds remain in high demand in the market, and they are still valuable in a world that is constantly changing and setting trends. However, jewelry featuring colorful gemstones is becoming less of an unusual choice and more of a mindful selection. So, could this rising popularity and availability cause people to overlook diamonds in the coming years or not?

Are gemstones valuable?

Of course, rare gemstones are expensive due to their scarcity. The value of gemstones is determined by their quality and size, specified as a price per carat. The price per carat is then multiplied by the actual weight of the gemstone to determine the selling price. Large or exceptional gemstones carry an additional premium. Since synthetic gemstones can be produced to order in laboratories, their value is significantly less than that of natural gemstones.

Where to Buy Gemstone Jewelry Online

If you're unsure where to buy reliable Gemstone Jewelry, let me offer some simple suggestions:

Online retail stores such as Amazon, eBay, and Etsy offer a wide variety of jewelry. You can choose and purchase Gemstone Jewelry directly from them.

Online Wholesale Jewelry Stores When buying Gemstone Jewelry from online wholesale stores, most buyers are typically retailers because wholesale prices are cheaper. However, this often comes with the requirement to purchase a minimum quantity, such as a $99 minimum order or free shipping on orders over $399.

If you want to buy genuine 925 silver jewelry from a wholesale store but need a particular store in mind, I recommend our store, Wholesale925silver.com
