Grouse Hunting with young German Shorthaired Pointer

Visit our website – to get more from your GSP. Scotland is home to one of the most exciting game birds – the Red Grouse. The moorland bird is perfect quarry for an HPR and at the right time of year the moor is a wonderful place to train dogs to work well. This video demonstrates how different weather conditions affect scent. This video is part of the level 4 Aytee Training Programme source

Gotta share more of this dog honestly - look at him, he’s just so handsome. Absolutely love his pointing style - hope we get out in the field one day.

Gundam Wing: Minutia and Trivia

On my long and winding way down research rabbit holes, I often stumble on bits and pieces of trivia that I find quite interesting, but don't really fit anywhere in my usual commentary on Gundam canon and are far too niche and inconsequential to merit a post of their own. HOWEVER. Since I know in my heart that you, dear reader, are also the sort of person for whom background details of the absolute least consequential variety are a source of delight and inspiration, I am compiling some of my discoveries here, and perhaps if I find more, there will be follow up posts. This one happens to be, in a very loose sense, mostly about Romefeller, OZ, and its Special Eyebrow People, because that is where my brain worms are currently converging. Here is my collection of useless trivia. I lay them at your feet like weird pebbles. Look at them. They're neat.

1. The Daily Kingdom Newspaper

It's quite likely that this has already been done, but in the grand spirit of this blog, I have decided to take the path of highest effort for the stupidest reason, and transcribed this paper. This page of After Colony news, ostensibly from July 14th, A.C. 195, appears to be reporting on events that happened towards the end of World War II. It's apparently been a slow news day for the Sanc Kingdom press for several centuries. I found myself getting kind of wrapped up in the stories and was disappointed I couldn't turn the page and find out what happened next. (I mean, I know what happened next, broadly speaking.) Of particular interest were Henri and Camille Dreyfus, Swiss chemists who made a lot of innovations during both world wars. ...They were also apparently noted OZ supporters? Well, what can you expect from a big industrial supplier of*checks notes* acetyl intermediates.

2. The OZ doggy

Pictured below: Treize's well-heeled hunting pet

and a dog is there too *BA-DUM tsch!*

This spotty and behaved hound is a real breed of hunting dog, the German Short-haired Pointer, or GSP! Did you know this, dear reader? I did not know this. This is new Dog Lore to me.

from the wiki: "It is a pointer and retriever, an upland bird dog, and water dog. The GSP can be used for hunting larger and more dangerous game. It is an excellent swimmer but also works well in rough terrain. It is tenacious, tireless, hardy, and reliable. German Shorthaired Pointers are proficient with many different types of game and sport, including trailing, retrieving, and pointing pheasant, quail, grouse, waterfowl, raccoons, opossum, and even deer."

Seems like a perfect bird-hunting companion for Mr. Treize. She'll probably go retrieve the beautiful red phoenix he murdered. I've decided she's named Oscar (after the Rose of Versailles) and she is a very good girl. Braver Oscar! Braver Hund!

3. Luxembourg Castle

This is Treize's abandoned Disney castle in Luxembourg. I owe the background artists of this scene an apology, for in my heart I assumed this was a random assemblage of spare castle-parts they found at Ludwig II's rummage sale. Reader, I was wrong:

THIS is Schloss Viandin, a restored castle in Luxembourg. Look at this place, it's gorgeous! You can hardly tell there's a secret mobile suit bunker in the basement. Frankly, I'm jealous I'm not being confined there, Treize! Stop sulking in the catacombs and go relax in the pretty princess bed until you feel better. Gaze upon the signed picture of Patrick Swayze; let him inspire you.

4. Romefeller's Secret

This one comes to us from the Battlefield of Pacifists manga, which, I've learned, is pretty good actually. (I mean it's not GOOD good, but it contains some interesting stuff). Now, come: I am taking you with me on this journey:

I feel extremely vindicated knowing that there's semi-canonical support for my theory that the Romefeller aristobrats are Austrian. I knew it. I KNEW IT. According to this manga, Romefeller was officially founded in Vienna-- the wording is a little ambiguous in this translation, but if Romefeller had members joining it in 1862, then it had to have existed in some form since then-- which means that the "Glorious Year" of 1956 is something other than its founding date. So what exactly happened in 1956? As I am a hack and fraud, and have been one all my life, I have looked to wikipedia for guidance. Mostly what was happening was the Cold War, colonialism, uprisings, Elvis, research and debate over artificial intelligence, both the hard drive disk and the snooze-button alarm clock being invented, Japan joining the UN, and wait what's this--

COMPUTER, ENHANCE:

...My god...

It's all coming together.

Eurovision is a plot by Romefeller.

The evidence is all here. There is simply no other conclusion we can come to.

--For this, and many other reasons that are well beyond the scope of a fandom blog, you should probably boycott them.

I rest my case.

5. The Romefeller Coat of Arms

I'm no vexillologist, and my heraldic experience is limited to adoptable pixel dragons, but what I am is an insane person with too much time on their hands. And so, to the best of my ability, I have blazoned the Romefeller coat of arms:

Supporters: Two Unicorns Rampant 

Crown: Purpur Crown of Peerage or Lord of Parliament  

Escutcheon: Heater with Two Engrailed Wedge Top - party per pale (halved vertically)

Blazon: Sinister (Right): Argent, Bend Sinister Sanguine; Dexter (Left): Bleu Celeste, Charged with a Ringed (or Celtic) Cross Argent 

Motto Scroll: UPRTUN or UPRTVN

--I don't know what UPRTVN is meant to stand for, but there are truly SO many ways you could play Latin Mad Libs and get a reasonable-sounding answer. At a stab, knowing Romefeller's priorities and values, I would guess it probably contains a, you know, "Unity/Peace/Rule/Tradition/Victory/Necessity", "Unity Through The Rule of Tradition Is Our Victory", or some such deeply worrying thing. Take your pick really.

6. "Herbst" / "Autumn"

The Rilke poem Treize quotes in "Frozen Teardrop" is not terribly difficult to find online, but if you're not sure what you're looking for it can be difficult because he has multiple poems about Autumn, and Autumn Day is perhaps better known; also the internet is absolutely filthy riddled with despicable bots and farmed content that has lost its attributions, so you do have to dig to find where different translations have come from (bless this very Web 1.0 page for carrying on the lord's work in basic html). Here is the original in German, and two complimenting translations:

Herbst -Rainer Maria Rilke Die Blätter fallen, fallen wie von weit als welkten in den Himmeln ferne Gärten; sie fallen mit verneinender Gebärde. Und in den Nächten fällt die schwere Erde aus allen Sternen in die Einsamkeit. Wir alle fallen. Diese Hand da fällt. Und sieh dir andre an: es ist in allen. Und doch ist Einer, welcher dieses Fallen unendlich sanft in seinen Händen hält.

This translation by Horst A. Scholz (linked here so I don't get into trouble) is the most spare and one-to-one translation into English I've found-- I always appreciate having a comparison between the very literal meanings and a more creative reconstruction when I'm reading translated poetry.

Meanwhile on the other end of the spectrum, this translation by Robert Bly is very freeform and agnostic; for my own purposes, I think the use of "Space" instead of "Heaven" happens to fit nicely with the themes of Gundam:

Autumn -translation by Robert Bly The leaves are falling, falling as if from far up, as if orchards were dying high in space. Each leaf falls as if it were motioning "no." And tonight the heavy earth is falling away from all other stars in the loneliness. We're all falling. This hand here is falling. And look at the other one. It's in them all. And yet there is Someone, whose hands infinitely calm, holding up all this falling.

Curtis gang as dogs |

This is mainly for fun but it’s actually some great charecter study to see what you associate and understand with the character. For this I’ve tried to stick with mainly hunting/working dogs as that’d suit them better than the more mainstream 3-4 choices.

Pony- Treewalker coonhound

I initially sort of saw him as a beagle but I think this is more fitting, still with some of that cutesy look. Wants to be taken seriously, works well, little baby.

Soda- Field golden retriever

Do I need to explain this one?

Darry- Redbone coonhound

Wanted to keep them in the same sort of dog family, well…soda is special. Good sense of smell, this is my trying to relate it to him finding his brothers/protective.

Steve- GSP

Energy energy energy energy energy— look at me! Look at me! Clingy! Energy energy en—

Two-bit- Belgian sheepdog

Looks like the dog can have a good laugh lol if we want to more Americanize border collie would also work.

Dally- Bernese mountain dog

He protect. He fluffy. He tired.

Johnny- Field spaniel

Big ol’ eyes. Need I say more?

Spooktober day 18 full moon/werewolves

A story for @tyronedatiger event Spooktober day 18 full moon/werewolves.

Sarah call her best friend Lisa and said to her, "Hey Lisa, thanks for the tracker you give me. I put it in Max's jeans as you said when he is about to leave just like he did one night every month." and Lisa on the other side of the phone said to Sarah, "Well, it is obvious that Max has been cheating on you." Sarah said, "I don't know if I would accepted that Max has been cheating on me over the course of our six years of marriage. He could just like doing a night hunting, and don't want to tell me about it in case he get in trouble with the law. Anyway, I need to know how the tracker works."

As the sun begins to set, Sarah drive her car to car to Max's location using her GSP and she ask herself when the GSP tell her to take a left, "Why is Max going deep in the woods? Is he night hunting as I guess?" Soon, Sarah arrived at a cleaning and see her bearded husband Max on the ground in pain and the shocked Sarah quickly got out of her car and she call out, "Max?!? Max, are you okay?!?" Max turn to see his wife and he warned Sarah, "No.... get away from him.... my wolf.... will eat you...." and Sarah watch in horror as her loving husband become a black fur wolf monster that stand on two legs under the full moon and let out a howl. The now wolf Max turn its eyes at Sarah and growl at her, which scared Sarah and she start telling her changed husband, "Max... it's me... Sarah.... your wife.... please.... remember me....." The werewolf walk up to Sarah and smell her, smelling his scent on her which means this woman is his mate, but the werewolf is curious about why his mate is not showing her inner wolf like he is and, while unable to speak, he hold out a claw and Sarah quickly understand what her werewolf husband wanted, "You.... you want to transform.... into what you are...." The werewolf Max nod and Sarah said to her husband as she show her shoulder to Max, "Can you give me a small bite?" which the werewolf did as his mate request and give a bite on Sarah's shoulder. As Max lick the wound he left her, Sarah begins her transformation as her body grew in height as Max's werewolf form and blond fur grow on her body, becoming a werewolf.

Welcome to Dungeons & Funkin’

I know this is a lot of information to talk about so bare with me. I will he explaining the story and possible make a separate blog based solely on this AU.

Story:

This is a campaign based au from the ttrpg Dungeons and Dragons close with the canon story of Friday Night Funkin’. The main party is a party of three, with some who come and go:

-Boyfriend: Known in the story named Bardfriend or bard for short, is the hero and main character you see in the story. He is a level 10 human bard with many skills and training under his belt. He had a rough past but eventually had become the talk of the island NewFunk, after Daddy Dearest at his own game.

-Girlfriend: Known as Sorceress or Sorce for short, is the love interest in the story, secretly had been dating Bard for a short while before Dearest found out, only for her love for him grow stronger. She is a level 9 Tiefling sorceress under the dragon ancestry, where her father, Dearest, is a devil/demon, and her mother, Mearest, is a red dragon under a humanoid disguise. She is taken by one of Dearest’s henchmen before being rescued by a long journey to save her by Bard.

-Pico: known as GunSlinger Pico or GSPico (GSP), is the rival in the story. He is a level 10 human fighter(gunslinger) with a very difficult past. Bard and GSP are exs, but due to a seen misunderstood betrayal by bard, GSP has a grudge against him as well as the dearest family. But eventually, he tags along with Bard and provides the muscle of the group.

-Daddy Dearest: known as Dearest or Demon Dearest, is the big bad/ antagonist of the story and father of Sorce. He is a full devil/demon Tiefling with the highest status of NewFunk. He had been on the hunt of trying to kill Bard in any means possible but had been unsuccessful. But when taking matters for himself, he lost and humiliated by a large crowd by Bard. Only for his rage to take over and do something dramatic and deadly once making a deal with a mysterious figure, becoming the King of Demons.

The story is still in a work in progress but there is a lot of things about this au including the Time Trio, which is Story for another time.

Y’all I know Brittanys were barely being titled in stuff but I just found out I can actually see the official stats from the AKC on this sort of thing and 2022, anything that wasn’t field or hunting was absolutely abysmal. I am crying why are we LIKE THIS? We are so full of potential and versatile 😭 Why are we being beaten out by dogs like GSPs and stuff when we should be at the very least on PAR with them. I am so mad right now I’m actually frothing

I’m stuck at work as a ball of upset energy and can’t do anything constructive right now but mark my words I will be putting so many stupid basic titles on my dogs now because apparently I’m the only one that’s going to fucking do it

sending you a brittany 🥳

I'd get a red and white bitch and name her Skua. My falconry friends would be delighted that I joined the gundog crew, and I'd have to make a point to go out with them and their birds and GSPs. Fun!

I'd put her on critters of course-- mostly rabbits, possibly other fur. Also nosework of course. If she enjoyed chasing plastic bags we'd give racing a shot. My roommate has expressed an interest in getting into hunting birds, so I'd lend Skua to her for that purpose. Maybe they'd go to some gundog field trials together.

We'd also do some bikejoring and hiking. Basically a nice fun all-rounder dog, my favorite type.

Thank you for asking!
