003. in a mountain lodge, snowed in from a heavy snow storm — whoever you’d like?? c:
for an entity crafted on the teetering edge of time itself, there was a certain kind of fascination to be exhumed in the everyday occurances of human life. from mundane tasks to unexpected weather changes, and everything in between, Solstice had endured billions of years of life, but still knew so very little about these seemingly fragile creatures. thus far they'd spent an almost egregious amount of time trying to understand it all; to anticipate patterns and singularties, but had sooner come to discover that life was simply an unexpected anamoly with a million undocumented instances.
this happened to be one of them.
one second they and Hyeon had been enjoying the brisk winter sun, to a blinding flurry of dark grey snowfall that whipped around the small cabin they found themselves in. Eden had done their best to stoke the fire, but their wood supplies were low and they feared it'd be some time before they'd be able to go out and fetch more. it's with this knowledge that they came to the conclusion ( && after a brief discussion with Hyeon herself ) that they should adjust their internal temperatures to a comfortable state and prevent Hyeon from freezing to death. she might be a deity just like them, but that didn't mean they wanted her to suffer.
they'd gone and gathered up a few of the warmest blankets they could find, settled down on the couch beside her after wrapping the both of them together in them, and ( with her consent ) bundled her up in their arms to the best of their abilities. the beauty of being a cosmic machine was the various features they'd been equipped with during their initial conception. while synthetic skin was soft and supple to the touch, it provided a gateway for their internalized network to transfer heat from their central processor to the rest of their body. this also allowed them to keep cool and avoid accidentally frying some component or other.
so after applying focus entirely to their centre, they began channeling the heat output the processor regularly churned out and allowing it to traverse throughout the rest of their body. synthetic skin, which was normally cool to the touch, became rather warm and comfortable. they also informed her that should the heat become too much, they had the ability to adjust their temperature accordingly to any degree she desired. so while the two of sat there huddled up, Solstice rest their chin atop her head and closed their eyes, gentle smile in tow. they'd patiently wait for her interjection or requests, and hoped she'd at least be comfortable like this until the snow storm managed to pass on it's own.

There's something hilarious about how so much subsequent media has positioned Vampires and Werewolves as, like, binary opposite entities, and then you read Dracula (1897) and realize that wolves are that guy's preferred solution to every problem. You'd say something to Dracula about "ah yes, werewolves, vampires' great eternal enemies," and he'd just be like "you mean my subcontractors?"

My friends who have never experienced flooding, and who are about to deal with it from this storm, please remember:
1. NO. YOU CANNOT MAKE IT THROUGH THAT WATER ON THE ROAD. I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU'RE DRIVING. TURN. AROUND.
2. DO NOT GO WADING THROUGH THE WATER. EVEN IF YOU JUST WANT TO SEE HOW DEEP IT IS. THAT. WATER. IS. CONTAMINATED.
3. IT IS CALLED FLASH FLOODING FOR A REASON. THE WATER RISES AND SURGES IN A FLASH. STAY. HOME.
4. If you're at risk of flooding, raise up any of your belongings now. Put the legs of tall things in buckets. Know where your important documents are.
5. Stay safe.

U can watch Star Wars so many times and it doesn’t prepare u for how dumb Star Wars is. For one thing I think we gloss over how kenobi (who has definitely been at the club. Please.) describes the mos eisley cantina as the worst most villainous place ever and then u get inside and it’s a pack of muppets vaping

I hate how people will look at popular indie artists who had one or two songs go viral on TikTok and start making fun of anybody who listens to them. "Oh you listen to Lemon Demon, Will Wood, Jack Stauber, Glass Animals, and Mother Mother? Tsk, don't you know that is stupid TikTok neurodivergent white transmasc preteen music? It's so mid and bad you should listen to real music–" you are a pit of misery
