^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

“What do you think Y/n?” Sidney asked looking to her friend that sat in front of her as they all ate lunch around the fountain.

“About what?” Y/n asked having zoned out of their conversation, she turned her attention up to Sidney.

“The murderer in town? Duh.” Tatum teased her friend playfully, rolling her eye’s.

Y/n furrowed her eyebrows and asked. “What about them?”

“Why do you think they're doing it?” Sidney was curious even if it brought up feel’s and memories she’d rather forget. Y/n alway’s thought of points and views none of them considered. She looked at it in a different, less gernetic way and it gave them a different perspective.

“Could be mindless killing.” Y/n shrugged thinking about it but even to her the kill’s being mindless killing’s just for the hell of it didn’t seem correct.

“Doubtful. It’s gotta have a motive, otherwise why call first?” Randy shook his head in disagreement as he took a sip of his soda.

“True. Maybe it’s to raise the stakes? Build adrenaline for a better chase.” Y/n tilted her head with a smirk at the corner’s of her lips. The killer called to get their victims into a false sense of security before making them completely terrified for their lives. They were playing with their prey.

“Before WHAM! Spill your guts.” Stu said loudly making Sidney and Tatum jump and Y/n laugh at his usual Stu antics, Billy just shook his head while Randy scoffed.

“It’s all so disgusting.” Sidney shook her head and her face contorted into a very disgusted look.

“Sick.” Tatum fake gagged.

“Could’ve been more creative.” Y/n shrugged her shoulders thinking the killer wasn’t very creative besides the phone call. Even though she had spoken lowly in a almost inaudible volume it caught two of the boy’s complete attention.

“Let’s get to class.” Sidney grabbed her bag, Y/n and Tatum followed suit with Randy on their heels as Billy and Stu stayed behind under the disguise of cleaning up.

“Hear that Billy? More creative.” Stu turned his head towards his best friend and partner in crime.

“Fuck off.” Billy shoved Stu’s shoulder to make him back up a bit. Billy’s attention was still on Y/n as he watched her retreating form. Without even knowing she had guessed correctly about ‘Ghostface’ techniques and it didn’t surprise Billy but it did make the wheels start turning in his mind. Especially when she made the comment about the kill’s not being very creative.

“You think she knows?” Stu questioned in a whisper so others wouldn’t hear their conversation.

“I think she suspect’s.” Billy had noticed Y/n’s eye’s flick to him and to Stu when she answered Tatum’s question. But whether it was from her having a feeling they were behind the murders or just because they were friends Billy didn’t know and it frankly bothered him. Y/n was smarter than the other’s and if anyone would figure it out Billy’s money was on Y/n.

“Does that change the plan?” Stu hoped it didn’t, he rather enjoyed Y/n’s company and he liked that he could make her laugh. She got his humor and she didn’t judge him or view him as just the clown. Stu didn’t want her to be added to the list of who needed to die.

“No. We knew she was smarter than the others. This doesn’t change anything.” Billy didn’t see this as an interference to their original plans. Y/n was not on the kill list but she would be more watched from now on. To make sure she didn’t spoil anything. They had other plans for her . . .

i know you have a lot coming up for clanmew day, but i was wondering if clanmew has any other "archaic" words that aren't really used anymore? i know 'kurrnia' is one, and it would be interesting if older spirits - such as, idk, cloudberry and ryewhisker are on my mind cause of the darkstripe posting - have a bit of a language barrier communicating with younger cats because of the language changing overtime

Darkstripe: "...................what... what was that dish you just suggested?"

Cloudberry: "Blanc desire. Milke of alemaundes, flour of rys, braun of chapoun, gyngere itried, sucre, hwit wyn; vchon of þoes schulen boillen in clene possenet, & soþþen idon in þe vessel hwaryn hit schal beon imad, in a stude wyþouten vulþe; & poume gernet to strey3en abouen."

Cloud and Rye definitely have an odd cadence, their native tongue is actually early Clanmew. It's a pidgin between Parkmew and Old Tribemew, actively evolving into a creole language. They might have been some of the first cats to grow up with it as their first language!

But they're also the greeters of all new cats, and easily some of the most social spirits in the Place of No Stars. They've been speaking Clanmew AS it evolved. So they probably have a few odd phrases and archaic words, but not as extreme as Middle English Cloudberry up there lmao.

Archaic words that I can think of;

Kurrnia = Honor Child, like you brought up.

Oowe = King. The ruler of the River Kingdom.

Kekaba-weeg = An unfortunate accident or a horse-drawn carriage. References the death of Gray Wing the Wise.

Ssuiche = Homestead. A sub-territory owned by a family, pledging allegiance to the Wind Coalition or River Kingdom.

Bpon = Mountain, as opposed to Kroob, hill, which is still in use. Become the rootword of "boulder," which influenced "stone."

#Btw that was just pulled out of a middle english cookbook #I don't actually know what that says besides almond milk.#fennelposting #Clanmew

@diegosouzalions as moissanites são bem mais caras e raras do que uma zirconia então por que elas não são as vice diamantes e as zirconias vice moissanites

Porque Zirconias são consideradas "diamantes falsas", ou seja, são mais próximas ao diamante. E não seja por isso, Bixbite na vida real é uma das Gems mais caras do mundo (até mais do que um Diamante) e mesmo assim elas são abaixo das Sapphires, Gernets, Emeralds, etc.

If you’ve ever looked at a lush green rooftop garden or a street lined with solar panels and thought, This is what the future should look like, then you’re already vibing with solarpunk. It’s more than just an aesthetic (although the aesthetic is amazing). Solarpunk is a movement that imagines a future where technology and nature actually compliment each other — where clean energy, sustainability, and community care are the norm instead of the exception. Think sunlit cities wrapped in ivy, wind turbines spinning in the distance, and people living in harmony with the planet instead of constantly fighting against it. It’s kinda like steampunk’s bright, hopeful cousin: While steampunk is all about a gritty, industrial past filled with gears and gas lamps, solarpunk is a vision of a world where progress doesn’t equal pollution, and innovation works with nature, not against it. Related story Eminem’s Daughter Hailie Jade Welcomes a Baby Boy — & His Name Is a Special Nod to His Grandpa From Phineas to Ophelia, these names embody the fusion of elegance and industry, combining old-fashioned charm with a sense of offbeat playfulness. — SheKnows (@SheKnows) October 17, 2024 For an increasing number of parents, solarpunk isn’t just an aesthetic — it’s a philosophy they’re trying to live by. And when it comes time to name a baby, why not let that hopeful and forward-looking mindset make its way onto the birth certificate? Solarpunk names are inspired by nature, science, mythology, and a deep-rooted hope for what’s possible. These names might sound earthy and ethereal, or futuristic and unexpected, but they all carry a sense of light, life, and renewal. Choosing a solarpunk name can feel like giving your child a little piece of the future: one that’s greener, brighter, and more connected. It’s a way of saying, “We believe in better things, and we’re raising someone who might help build them.” Whether you’re drawn to names that feel fresh out of a botanical garden or something that sounds like it belongs in a dreamy, utopian sci-fi novel, there’s something here for you. So if you’re someone who gets excited by the idea of solar power and flower power, or if you’re just looking for a name that’s meaningful, future-facing, and a little off the beaten path, you’re in the right place. These solarpunk baby names are beautiful, intentional, and full of that rare mix of groundedness and wonder. Beatrix Image Credit: SheKnows Beatrix likely comes from Viatrix — literally “female traveler” in Late Latin. It’s got roots in early Christianity, but also vibes of being blessed or happy. In a solarpunk world, someone with this name would be all about exploring and finding their own path to happiness in a future where tech and nature thrive. Algernon Image Credit: SheKnows Algernon has its roots in Norman French, literally meaning “having a moustache.” It was a nickname for William de Percy, one of William the Conqueror’s crew. Fast forward to the 15th century, and it started getting used as an actual given name. And its tie to nature? It was given to a mouse character in the short story Flowers for Algernon (1958) and the 1966 novel of the same name by American author Daniel Keyes. Briony Image Credit: SheKnows Briony makes the perfect solarpunk name because of its natural healing vibes — it’s derived from the name of a type of vine that was used in ancient medicine. Callum Image Credit: SheKnows The name Callum comes from Columba, which is Late Latin for “dove.” In Christian tradition, the dove represents the Holy Spirit, which fits right in with the solarpunk vibe of finding spirituality in nature and community. Garnet Image Credit: SheKnows Let’s dig into Garnet — a passionate, earthy choice straight from the deep red gemstone, which happens to be January’s birthstone. The word “garnet” itself comes from Middle English, where “gernet” meant “dark red.” Amaryllis Image Credit: SheKnows Amaryllis is quite literally a bright and shining name: It’s derived from the Greek word amarysso, which means “to sparkle.” But the name Amaryllis is also tied to a stunning flower, with its large, showy blooms that burst with color. Calla Image Credit: SheKnows The name Calla is like a breath of fresh air — it’s tied to those gorgeous white flowers that thrive in marshy areas. Its connection to the Greek word kallos, meaning “beauty,” just adds another layer of depth to this lovely name. Hesper Image Credit: SheKnows Think of Hesper as the twinkling star that guides the way home — because the name literally means “evening” in Greek, and in mythology, Hesper personified the Evening Star, which is none other than the planet Venus shining bright in the night sky. Ivy Image Credit: SheKnows Ivy is a name that’s rooted in the natural world, for the climbing plant that sometimes bears tiny yellow flowers. It’s said to symbolize fidelity (because it clings firmly to whatever it’s growing on) and immortality (because it’s evergreen). Ari Image Credit: SheKnows We love the unisex pick Ari — it’s like a symbol of strength and resilience, two defining traits of a solarpunk world! Depending on the roots you dig into, Ari can mean “lion” in Hebrew, “eagle” in Old Norse, or “brave” in Armenian, each one evoking a powerful image. Ciro Image Credit: SheKnows Ciro is a name with some serious depth. It’s derived from ancient Persian, with possible meanings ranging from “young” to “humiliator of the enemy” — or is associated with kyrios, meaning “lord” in Greek. Either way, Ciro suggests a strong sense of agency and vision. Lilian Image Credit: SheKnows The name Lilian is as delicate and lovely as the flower itself, from the Latin word lilium, meaning “lily.” It calls to mind a gentle soul with a green thumb, cultivating lush gardens and green spaces. Jacinthe Image Credit: SheKnows Another true nature name, Jacinthe is derived from hyacinth: the name of the flower (or the precious stone that also bears this name), which ultimately comes from Greek hyakinthos. Primrose Image Credit: SheKnows The name Primrose is like a sweet harbinger of spring. Derived from the Latin prima rosa, meaning “first rose,” it suggests a connection to the delicate balance of nature and the promise of new beginnings. Hawke Image Credit: SheKnows The name Hawke bears a strong sense of focus, speed, and adaptability — from the hawk, of course, a bird known for its incredible vision and agility. Flint Image Credit: SheKnows The name Flint — from the dark quartz rock of the same name — is giving a connection to the raw materials of the earth and the spark of ingenuity just waiting to ignite. Linden Image Credit: SheKnows The linden tree is known for its soothing presence and beautiful blooms, and with its heart-shaped leaves, symbolizes love, fidelity, and truth in many different cultures. The name Linden is not only a great solarpunk name, it’s also a fantastic gender-neutral choice! Zinnia Image Credit: SheKnows The zinnia flower adds a pop of bright color and personality to any garden — and the name Zinnia is full of the same spirit! It’s named after the German botanist Johann Zinn. Aurelian Image Credit: SheKnows The solarpunk values of illumination, innovation, and a brighter tomorrow and perfectly reflected in the name Aurelian: it’s rooted in the Latin aureus, meaning “golden” or “gilded.” Helios Image Credit: SheKnows Helios is an energetic name that means sun in Greek. In Greek mythology, Helios was the sun god, who rode across the sky each day in a horse-drawn chariot. Winter Image Credit: SheKnows The word “winter” comes from the Old English wintor, said to mean “time of water.” As a name, Winter makes a perfect unisex choice! Prosper Image Credit: SheKnows From the Latin prosperus, meaning “fortunate” or “successful,” Prosper sounds a little like a Puritan virtue name — but with a hopeful and thriving vibe that’s perfectly befitting of the solarpunk aesthetic. Avalon Image Credit: SheKnows The name Avalon is tied to the mystical island paradise from Arthurian legend, and is said to be related to the Welsh word afal, meaning “apple,” since apples were often associated with paradise. Solarpunk Names: Pin It! Source link
