Creaking!BigB from session 2!

I wanted him to be Of The Horrors, so now he's thoroughly half tree

how tree work? v

He doesn't have Any joint movement from that left foot up to his right shoulder due to the pale oak growth. This very much affects his mobility (specifically his ability to turn his upper body). He's mostly pivoting on his left foot to get around- which works pretty well!

Most injuries don't affect him like they would before, but this is because they get repaired with either oak, moss, or amber soon after the injury takes place. It doesn't exactly overtake BigB over time, just covers wounds. Hilariously, this has also affected his ability to get a haircut because it just kept growing back mossy (he gave up halfway through one and decided it looked cool)

This version of BigB can technically see out of any exposed amber on his person, including the heart. I imagine he forgets to turn towards people he's talking to because he can already see them without turning.

I'm so sleepy and need to do homework for in the morning, but I can't do it because I am too busy howling biting clawing screaming yelling over this scientific paper I found while trying to figure out how lichens spread

Why do all the best scientific discoveries come from scientists investigating questions that sound like something a high person would come up with? In this case, "so you know how woodpeckers scoot up and down dead trees? Do you think stuff sticks to the woodpeckers?"

It turns out, a scooting bird DOES gather moss...

Diverse biological material was recovered from all specimens of all bird species, from all positions sampled. Most abundant categories of discovered biological material included bryophyte fragments, fungal spores, and vegetative propagules of lichens. Also, freshwater diatoms, bryophyte spores, algal cells, testate amebae, rotifers, nematodes, pollen, and insect scales were identified. 

The scientists are really confused about the diatoms, because the species of diatom is supposed to live on rocks in cold freshwater streams. "Maybe the birds got diatoms on them when they took a bath? Or maybe diatoms live in moss and rotting wood and we just didn't notice that?"

What this means, though, is that when an environment attracts woodpeckers, it brings more biodiversity of mosses, lichens, and small creatures?! Meaning that large trees, standing dead trees, and dead limbs on trees are important for attracting moss and lichen biodiversity??!?!?

What are the roles of lichen and moss diversity in the ecosystem? I MUST KNOW NOW!!!
