Box turtles are the kinds of turtles who can fully fit into and close their shells along a single hinge in their plastron, which once closed is extremely hard to break into for any kind of predator especially if they cannot get a proper grip on the dome of the shell. Box turtles are also usually found in plains rather than ponds, and while they need water to survive and keep hydrated and can swim well, they’re not generally considered aquatic. Box turtles do have an interesting adaptation due to their more northern range of being able to survive freezing temperatures for a short period of time by slowing their metabolism outside of seasonal brumation (similar to hibernation, but more of a dormant state) if absolutely needed.
After watching TMNT ‘03 where the turtles meditate to save oxygen and prevent suffocation in a broken airlock, I thought, why not mix their ninja ability to conceal their body heat and breath and mix it with a turtles natural ability to brumate? Perhaps the brothers could enter into a completely dormant state on command with enough training in order to survive extreme situations or astral project in some form. Just a fun thought to tie their strong mystic powers with their physical abilities!
Although I use the term heterothermy to refer to them being able to vary between generating their own body heat while active and relying on environmental temperature while inactive, the intricacies of understanding thermal regulation in animals eludes me. If there’s a term that fits better, go ahead! I’m not a biologist so you probably know better lol
These are all my personal head cannons! You can use em’ as reference or not, whichever you prefer :)

I just think Tallulah gets to be upset about this. “It’s not Wilbur’s fault” “He’s not a bad dad” “He loves his daughter so much” yes! These are all true! And it’s not his fault! But he’s still not there. And Tallulah has gone through so much and still hasn’t seen him, the one time he was around was the one time she wasn’t, and all she has are letters and “I’m thinking of you always” and things that used to be theirs together, but he’s still not there. She’s waited and she’s been patient and she’s loved him all the same, and he’s still not there. Like yesterday, and the day before, and the day before, from the happy milestones to the traumatic events, he’s still not there.
She knows that it’s not his fault, but it doesn’t change the fact that he’s absent. That in and of itself just adds to the sorrow, because she knows why he’s gone, and she’s been told time and time again it doesn’t mean he doesn’t care, she knows this - it doesn’t mean it doesn’t sting, that it doesn’t hurt, that she doesn’t yearn for her father to be there more than anything in the world, and he’s just not there.
So yes, she gets to be upset, and be caustic, and stomp her feet and write bitter messages, and be angry and vitriolic, because she’s a little girl missing her father, who feels things with her whole heart and soul - and that means she gets to feel the ugly parts of it, too.
#it’s like no wilbur isn’t at fault. especially if we’re talking about cc wilbur. but fuck man of course she’s gonna feel like this#this doesn’t make wilbur a bad person! he’s just a missing one. and Tallulah feels all the misery and bitterness as a daughter left behind#where is her father kissing her injuries and reassuring her? where is her father protecting her? hugging her at the end of the day?#Wil isn’t around to do this and she wants him back and he’s not going to be back. not for a while. and it’s not his fault but it doesn’t#stop it from being upsetting. she’s a little girl#and at least she has phil. her dad. who’s there time and time again. and it doesn’t make him somehow morally better or wtevr. he’s there an#Wil is not. and he’s going to continue to be there as a solid figure in tallulahs life that she needs#idk man like. fuck#lmao relating my own experiences from here below in the tags ✌️#as someone who’s been in that position? a parent absent for reasons outside of control? yeah it’s sucks. and I love them and they love me#*with a parent I mean I wasn’t the parent lmao#and it will never be the same. and when they were gone and missing things I was furious at them#that resentment grows and then it fades and sometimes bitterness strikes again and it’s how it goes. love is still there#and it’s no one’s fault. it just is. and what is is messy#anyways#mcyt#qsmp#q!tallulah#q!wilbur#z speaks

Back to the rogues with today's retrOCtober doodle. Sabotage! Her power is basically accelerated entropy, but practically speaking, it's the power to make stuff fall apart real fast and Sabotage wanders the world destroying stuff for fun! And money!
#my art#retroctober#superhero nonsense#superhero oc#sabotage is also somewhat resistant to damage/a speed healer#but knee joint injuries suck and can slow down running away from cops and capes#so she's adopted kneepads as like a fashion thing ok??#she's still kinda dangerously over-confident or self-destructive in her other choices lmao#...I just used capes as a catchall term for superheroes but I'm not sure any of my weirdoes actually....wear capes.....?#despite the fact that I like drawing capes?#.....yeah....no....I just checked my old sketches for the folks on my list for this and there are no capes#Past Me! Seriously? Not a single cape???

Ok so I accidentally stabbed myself while wood carving, just like I did a few years ago. The scenario was damn near identical: my knife hit a knot in the wood, and skipped from the wood to the meaty bit of my hand. Last time this happened I needed 7 stitches at the ER, and it cut deep then because, no surprise, a knife sharp enough to cut wood has no problem with skin and muscle. But I'm not in the ER this time, because there was one VERY important difference.
I had my no cut gloves on.
6 bucks was literally the difference between an ER trip and being able to stay home.
I have two bloody punctures on my hand, one quite painful admittedly, where the knife tip got through the kevlar fibers. That still sucks and I'm grumbling about it because it hurts like a motherfucker even now that the bleeding stopped. But honestly? I'll take it compared to the alternative, the reminder of which sits right next to my bandaids.
Never underestimate what a few bucks for safety can do for you.
#i love woodcarving but never underestimate a sharp knife#EVER#the fact that the identical thing happened and the only difference was the gloves#is proof of concept#it still sucks and my hand hurts like hell but i'll take it compared to the alternative#tw: mentions of blood#tw: injury

OC October 03-- "What the FUCK do you think you're looking at?" Beauforte is not a good person. She knows she hates taking human lives, and prefers to drink animal blood, but can't force herself to do it while her boss is around-- he always peer pressures her into eating people. And sometimes, they fight back. At least she bleeds slowly.
#my art#meka art#original character#alicia beauforte#vampire#original vampire#comic art#tw blood#tw injury#horror#i forgot how much I enjoyed my edgy teen ass' bullshit ocs and the whole blue/red thing black blood city had going on#don't think I'll ever get it moving again but. I do still want to do something with the story some day#we shall see#anyway enjoy one of my non-WoD vampires#this woman is NOT kindred#she also fucking SUCKS#fun fact: her type of vampire bleed a near-black tar-like blood#it is very fucking poisonous

i got a good grade in PT today AND i'm cleared to walk as far as i want as long as i do it on mostly-level ground :D
#pt tag#autoimmune tag#exercise tag#highlights: still scoring severely disabled but the level of disability has dropped 8% in two weeks#which according to my PT is Above And Beyond where i should be#hip strength remains SHOT so a lot of uphill walking is a no-no. adding more exercises to fix this though#i'm unlikely to graduate PT the same way i would for an injury (at least not anytime soon) since i have a chronic degenerative illness#BUT i can work toward a goal of only needing to check in every one or two months re: whether i'm doing okay.#once again i am.... so fucking blessed to have a jock's metabolism. this body sucks but is also so resilient#YAY. I GOT UP EARLY SO IT'S NICE THAT THE APPOINTMENT DIDN'T SUCK

The other day, I was at a physical therapy session (for my shoulder, not my ankle, though I am in PT for my ankle as well) and chatting with another patient and the physical therapist treating us.
The other patient was feeling bummed about his slow progress, so I told him about how, despite my most recent ankle injury being a grade 1 sprain back in October and there being no visible damage from the outside, I'm still in physical therapy for it. And I will continue to be in PT for quite some time. My ankle is messed up in a complex way that requires me to be very gradual in increasing my physical therapy and very careful about not overexerting it.
The reason it's so messed up goes back to spraining it initially nine years ago. I didn't see a doctor right away (I was at college and decided I didn't have time for that) and when I did see one, I didn't get the appropriate treatment for it. My doctor didn't even mention PT, despite my injury being so bad she was worried I broke my ankle. When I sprained it again almost as horribly two months later, she still didn't send me to PT.
And the physical therapist just nodded at me and said that's very common for ankle injuries. People don't get the appropriate treatment and suffer needlessly for years.
So here's my PSA: If you sprain your ankle, see a doctor. Make sure to check whether physical therapy would be beneficial for you; it almost always is for an ankle sprain. If you are having pain, swelling, bruising, or some combination of the three a month after your injury, make a fuss at the doctor's office if they tell you to continue doing the RICE method and send you on your merry way.
I've been struggling and suffering for nine years. A third of my life. Ankle injuries are treatable. You can recover well! But you need to seek medical help early and get the right treatment.
Don't be like me.
#my most recent ankle injury was a grade 1 sprain on the outside of my ankle#yet the MRI back in January showed two grade 2 sprains. one on both side.#it's crazy difficult to sprain the inside of your ankle and I'm still not sure how it happened#I just sort of chalk it up to my ankle having serious issues that weren't addressed until LAST YEAR#this year in January was my first ankle MRI!!! despite YEARS of ankle weakness and pain#and seriously I cannot convey how bad my first two sprains were#seriously do not be like me. get treatment fast. avoid the stuff I've been struggling with.#speechie sucks at health#speecher speaks

I thought the worst part of going home for thanksgiving was going to be listening to my parents terrible political opinions but no. it was twisting my ankle even worse than I did over the summer and undoing nearly a year of physical therapy :(
#i'm so pissed off#i literally just got an mri like a week ago and i will likely need another now#i spent this morning in the ER getting xrayed#i am ready to trade myself in for a robot body when can that happen#i'm just so frustrated and upset this really sucks#(yes i am aware there are far worse things going on in the world and yes i am still going to complain about my frustrations)#random text post silliness#lynne vs running injuries
