Hey guys, Daiki Aomine here

Heh. Midorima, and heard you were starting to lose. Did you forget your lucky jtem? Well, whatever. Your skills are good enough to make a come back. I'm sure once people see you in action, they'll give you support.

Midorima! He's a pretty funny guy! He's the ace of Shutoku High! This means that he is his team's primary scorer. His skills on the court are incredible! Why? Well look at this:

[Image ID: A gif of Midorima shooting a basketball. He turns around and walks away before the ball makes it into the basket. He shot the ball from beyond the 3 point line. End ID]

Midorima's signature ability is that he can make it into the basket from anywhere on the court! That's right! He can make 3-pointers, half-court shots, and even full-court shots with 100% accuracy!

He attributes a lot of his skill to simply following a daily horoscope. He will ALWAYS tune into the daily horoscope show (Oha Asa) and get the show's recommended lucky item for Cancers for the day! (His horoscope is Cancer) If he doesn't hsve his lucky item, things may turn for the worse…..

Anyways! That's my little spiel about Midorima! Please consider voting for him!!

Triceratops

Common name: Triceratops (Try-ser-uh-tops) Size: 7.9 to 9.0 m (26.0–29.5 ft) in length Age: End of Cretaceous (67 - 65 million years ago) Geographic range: North America Liked: Grazing Disliked: the T-Rex Taxonomy: Animalia > Chordata > Dinosauria > Ornithiscia > Ceratopsidae > Triceratops

Three horns and a bony neck frill make the Triceratops one of the most recognized dinosaurs. The name Triceratops is Greek in origin and literally means three horns on face. This elephant-sized dino roamed around North America near the end of the Cretaceous Period, approximately 67 to 65 million years ago.

Triceratops was an herbivore, eating mostly plants, and shrubs. Past studies have shown Triceratops used its parrot-like beak to grasp and pluck leaves rather than biting them off, and could have used both its horns and its massive body to tip over tall plants. Triceratops' mouth was packed with up to 800 teeth that were constantly being replenished over its lifetime. Man that's a lot of teeth!

The very first Triceratops bones were discovered in Denver in the year 1887. The bones were sent to Othniel Charles Marsh, who first thought they might belong to a bison. It wasn't until the following year, in 1888, that he named the creature Triceratops after subsequent bones were unearthed. To date, over 50 individual skulls have been dug up, but not one single, complete skeleton.

Only partial skeletons and skulls -- including infant dinos -- have been found across Montana, South Dakota, North Dakota, Colorado, Wyoming and parts of Canada. This shows Triceratops was confined to North America, which makes sense as the present day North American continent had already split and drifted away from Europe and South America by the time the three-horns came along.

They have been traditionally characterized as herding animals, although that is still up for debate. Up until 2009, unearthed Tricertops fossils have always been of solitary animals. In 2009, a bonebed was discovered containing three juvenile specimens, indicating they made be herd animals after all.

The dinosaur was equipped with strong limbs to support its massive body. Its forelimbs, which were shorter than the rear ones, were believed to allow the dinosaur to walk upright like an elephant, rather than bowed-out like a lizard.

Triceratops had one of the largest heads of all land animals, some even spanning one-third of the dinosaur's body. The largest skull ever dug up measured 8.2 feet (2.5 meters) in length. The largest specimen ever found spanned over 30 feet (9 meters) and weighed in at a whopping 15,750 pounds (7150 kg).

The bony neck frill, officially called a flounce, acted as more than just body armor to the Triceratops. Although the main use was for defense -- against other Triceratops and predators like the T-Rex -- studies show the frill was also used as a visual display in activities such as mating, and communication. It has even been suggested to help regulate body temperature.

Fun fact: The Triceratops is the state dinosaur of Wyoming.

Tagged by: @brittleconscience Thanks for tagging me! I never really get sent these things so it threw me off a bit, but it looks fun so let's do it!

Nickname: nobody but my extended family has ever tried giving me a nickname. My real name is not something I feel needs to be shortened especially since the only reason they do it is because they think my reall name is ridiculous, so I refuse nicknames on all accounts. I use WinterRose as my online name though so I guess that could be it?

Real Name: segways are weird, anyway. My real life name is Pandora.

Zodiac: before this I didnt know there was a difference in astral signs (sun, moon, rising, ect) so it was interesting to look up. I'm still not sure I understand it but I dug a bit and my sun sign is Virgo while my moon sign is Pisces.

Currently Reading: Paperback-If There be Thorns by V.C. Andrews. AO3 Wips-so many but the main ones right now are The Voice by andrhars, Innerworks by Prplzorua and 'til Death Do Us Part (and that moment cant come soon enough) by princessoftheives (@hylianfury on tumblr). Completed works: What Makes a Hero by Selphie Kinneas 175 on fanfiction.net and The Glass Gemstone by HJ_Fotemr on AO3. ...I read so much fanfiction.

Fave Music and Groups: So. Much. Music. How do I pick? Muse, Queens of the Stone Age, anything Mark Lanegan and anything Thomas Sanders creates is a staple. Um...other than that I'm not really picky with music, I pretty much listen to anything, but when my anxiety's bad I like music with a lot of instrumental layers because I can pick apart all the different pieces to shut my brain up a little. I also really love musicals so theres those too. Currently I'm obsessed with Elizaveta's Dreamer (those high notes, ooooh) and I Do Adore by Mindy Gledhill because it's cute and happy.

Sports: I dont really watch sports but in school I loved playing them in gym! My favorite was street hockey and kickball.

Other Blogs: I post art and my current WIP on my side blog @paper-and-whiskers

Get Asks?- I dont get them often on either blog, but as long as they arent inappropriate I always answer them and they're always welcome!

Blogs I Follow: 860

Tumblr crush: *insert that's a trap gif here*

Lucky Number: 7 and 9

What Am I Wearing- ...what the hell but also meh what the hell. At the moment boxers, a Breath of the Wild tshirt, a hand-modified space and skull jacket and iridescent skeleton hand burretts. Clearly the epitome of fashion.

Dream Vacation: It would depend on if I was going with someone or not. If I was with someone anywhere we could hang out in peace and not have to worry about anything would be nice. By myself honestly either holed up in my house with no future social engagements or being allowed to hike through some woods to explore would be amazing.

Dream car: anything that works, preferably with low mileage. (I think that's a good thing with cars, not really sure). Honestly though, I wouldnt do it, but I've always had a vision of getting a huge hillbilly truck bc the image of me, a five foot one inch obvious nerd hopping down from some monster of a road roller is hilarious to me.

Fave food: CAKE!!! Any desert really, but cake all the way. My favorite comfort food however is instant mashed potatoes with butter or seasoned butter noodles.

Drink of Choice: Forever the sleep deprived insomniac I live for anything caffeine, but usually I only drink water and apple juice when it's in the house. These three, they are the liquid of the gods.

Instrument: I've been picking up and putting down guitar for years now, I dont quite have the finger coordination yet and I'm not good at self teaching so i still suck. I can sing though and love doing so. I used to play a bit of piano but I was self taught with that too and havent touched one for years so I probably forgot everything.

Language: English. I'm trying to learn ASL and I took a year of Spanish in high school but heck if I remember anything.

Celeb crush: Daniel Radcliff and Elijah Wood have been my crushes since I was little XD Awkwafina is a recent one.

Random Fact: I'm allergic to any and all metal. My skin will eat through rings and rust necklace chains. I didnt realize this until I worked at an industrial chem plant where industrial grade metal mixtures were used for plating and my hands and arms broke out in an itchy rash that would occasionally burst open and bleed. Since working there the allergy only got worse and now all my jewelry has to be replaced with string because otherwise it doesn't last.

I'm not really sure about tagging people so I'm only doing it with people I notice interact with my blog the most, with a couple exceptions. Sorry in advance if I bother you!
