HORROR WEEK- FOTD #146 : purple jellydisc! (ascocoryne sarcoides)
the purple jellydisc (also jelly drops) is a jelly fungus in the family helotiaceae :-) it was picked for horror week due to its gross, brain-like appearance !! this fungus is saprotrophic, & plays a very important role in the process of tree decay. so far, it has been recorded in finland, france, great britain, germany, norway, chile, australia, china, cuba, iceland, taiwan, hawaii & korea. a fun fact is that this fungus can reproduce both sexually & asexually !!
the big question : will it kill me?? nah, but it's not considered edible either.
a. sarcoides description :
"this fungus is characterized by a fruiting body (technically an apothecium) with a pinkish-purple colour & more or less gelatinous consistency. the apothecia, typically 0.5 to 1.5 centimetres (1⁄4 to 5⁄8 in) in diameter, start with a roughly spherical shape, then eventually flatten out to become shallowly cup-shaped with a wavy edge and smooth upper surface. the lower surface may be covered with small particles (granular), & the apothecia are either attached directly to the growing surface (sessile), or have a rudimentary stem. the apothecia are accompanied by a conidial form, where non-sexual spores are generated. the conidial form consists of sporodochia, a cushion-like asexual fruiting body mass consisting of short conidiophores (specialized stalks that bear conidia). the sporodochia are similar in colour & consistency to the apothecia but very variable in shape, typically club-, spoon-, or tongue-shaped, & bearing minute, cylindrical, straight or curved conidia. as the fungus matures & the apothecia enlarge & press against each other, the apothecia coalesce to form a gelatinous, irregular mass. the flesh, similar to the appearance of the fungus, is pinkish-purple & gelatinous."

I discovered a small grove of dead trees absolutely inundated with Jelly Drops! I may try and make a little bit of pigment using them. :~)

Im way too tired to clean this up but I’ve been cackling at this i still absolutely love how The Dragon Prince randomly decided to drop the fact that Corvus not only knows how to play the cello but also that he writes his own pieces AND THEY NEVER MENTION IT AGAIN
Based off of that redraw trend on Twitter
#jelly draws#fanart#the dragon prince#tdp corvus#tdp soren#sorvus#corvus the kind of guy to drop lore randomly and never bring it up again you’ll know him at work as a quiet guy then one day he’s like#’hey sorry im heading out early i gotta pick up my little sister from soccer practice then met up with my boyfriend for his birthday

Question: how long does medusa neil takes to grow?
Like, taking the hands as Andrew's, is it more of a "whiplash because I was petting this baby a month ago and it's now Big" situation or "wait what you're telling this hot mer is that tiny cute thingy I'd found around as a teen?" one
Ok ok so I had just put out “Andrew finding baby jelly neil would be really cute” as like a fun little side thought but now I REALLY LIKE IT AND I WANT TO PUT IT IN THE TIMELINE
so to answer this question: physically? A Sea Nettle mer like Neil I’m going to say takes about 17-19 years to reach physical maturity/full size (which in jellies is pretty far removed from mental and emotional maturity, jelly brains take a good while to develop because they start with so little)
So this. This is what I’m deciding thank you so much @snazzy-jas-z-is-a-fan-of (which counts as your second option, dear galacticvampire)
And it looks like this:
@exy-is-sexy medusa admirer 🥰
So Andrew always comes back to the beach (fisherman’s son, they’re there a lot) and always gets distracted going to a specific tide pool housing this little thing he found. Aaron thinks it’s really cool too, their dad is too busy with work down the beach and is happy his kids are entertaining themselves while he gets ready for the day. Of course, yes, he tells them. Very good, finding such a mer in these waters. (He thinks it’s kids being kids. No one’s seen a jelly mer, they’re kind of believed to be extinct if not simply legends. But a little imagination is healthy.)
Then one day, Andrew checks the tide pool and finds it empty of the tiny jelly. It’s nowhere in sight, he looks all over the nearby waters and in any grass or rocks it could have gotten caught in. Nothing at all.
Maybe by the time he’s taken over his family’s fishing business, Andrew has convinced himself it really was in his imagination. His memory serves him well but if he’d convinced himself it was real back then, that would be what he remembered now.
Until he finds a monster washed up on his beach.
(A shot of the process under the cut)
IT DOESNT COME ACROSS IN THE PANEL. BUT I CANNOT PROPERLY EXPRESS TO YOU HOW TINY THAT SECOND NEIL IS. literally I think that is the single smallest thing I’ve ever drawn. Look at this
That’s me sharpening my 0.3 mechanical pencil to get it small enough to draw the eyes. I just need everyone to know this because I think it’s so stupid and funny. And we all love tiny baby jelly Neil and it doesn’t get ANY tinier than this folks
#BABIES#not pictured: directly before and after#before when Andrew got seaweed on his foot#saw a bug in it#and flung it across the beach in his surprise#then went looking for it bc wait that didn’t seem like a bug#found it in a tide pool#huh. jelly mer#and after when Aaron says ‘can I hold it’#and Andrew tries to drop it into Aaron’s hand#but it’s barely hanging on to his finger by its teeth. hanging straight down#love them#fan art#my art#aftg#all for the game#neil josten#andrew minyard#mer au#jellyNeil au#jellyfish#asks#tags#jellyneil

color drop we have to cook
"They're a work in progress! Gimme a break!"
(Anyway Hi i've been working on this goofy ass idea all day)
The bear's name is Gush and he's one of Color Drop's friends. He is a totally legitimate business bear. He's currently trying to invent a new kind of jelly, though his test batches have all kinda... stunk.
Anyway thanks for giving me an excuse to draw more Color Drop

Oh, also! Do we know what jelly drops actually are? From my research, they are still a mystery. Do you have theories?.... What is their significance to you?
You sent another ask before this inquiring about my opinion of the occult associations that pearls have, and I accidentally deleted it because tumblr mobile is terrible, so I apologize for that. To answer that last question here: as far as my own beliefs go, pearls tend to be particularly useful for healing and soothing magics. Given that pearls form as a way to defend their hosts against parasites and irritations, they possess associated virtues that can be called upon when they are incorporated into the framework of a spell. What's more, they can make good offerings to, or devotional items for, certain Aqueous spirits (though fluvial pearls tend to work best for fluvial spirits, and marine pearls tend to work best for marine spirits.)
As for the question you ask here, I'm not really sure what you mean. Jelly Drops are a fungus categorized under the genus Ascocoryne. Maybe you're referring to Star Jelly? As for my theories of what it is, they're no better than anyone else's (though I struggled to believe the hypothesis of them being amphibious remains partially digested by birds, mostly because I've seen a large section of forested area covered with deposits of it before, and I doubt that multiple birds were just circling that area and vomiting up toad goo all over.) As for what their significance is to me, it's a little fuzzy, since it's rare in lore and rarer still to come across in real life. But each of the times I've encountered it, it has been in a place, or following an event, that was heavily associated with the Gloaming Folk in some way. As such, I do think it bears certain Fae virtue.
