Fantasy setting where every single spell costs money to cast. Not materials, just actual money.

And the magic system adapts over time, beginning with the invention of currency all the way to our fiat currencies of the modern day.

Remember my ask abt kanato being polonium and ayato being copper? Yea i got some ideas, here r my thoughts explained even tho nobody asked <3

Reiji feels like francium bc francium is the most active metal on the periodic table. Or he could be rhodium but there's no explanation for that i just felt like it.

Shu is undoubtedly a noble gas, radon maybe. Bc it's denser than all the others, it's radioactive, colorless and odorless. It's not possible to detect without special equipment, which reminds me of shu bc he doesn't interact with anyone. He doesn't bother interacting unless people go looking for him.

Kanato is polonium bc it's one of the deadliest elements on the planet, as well as having a short half life span— its half life span reminds me of kanato's instability. While i do think polonium-210 has a relatively average lifespan (around 130 days), it's way shorter when compared to the other isotopes of polonium that can live up to more than a hundred years.

Laito is phosphorus. He kinda stands out to me among the others bc of his eerie charm, like ik he's bad news but i wanna run to him anyway djmfkfnedjnf. You see, when white phosphorus is slowly oxidized, it emits a faint green light bc of the reaction and i feel like it represents him well bc he's terrifying but also beautiful, just like oxidized white phosphorus. Bc the smoke produced by the reaction can cause severe burns on the skin, cardiovascular problems and kidney/liver failures. It could turn someone's life upside down, so can he lol.

Ayato is copper bc copper is durable and non oxidizing so it can last for excessive amounts of time (im looking at you cordelia, your attempts to ruin this child are futile). It is also easy to not that hard to shape copper which makes me think of how easily ayato is tempted to do and not do things— all it takes is a little bit of persuasion and encouragement. Besides all this, the natural pinkish orange color reminds me of his hair lmao.

Subaru is plutonium. Here's why: this element might inflict fear upon most people, but it's actually not as dangerous as it's made to be! Yes, it is toxic and used in nuclear weapons, but its radioactivity depends heavily on the amount of it. This reminds me that despite how violent and harmful subaru looks, he isn't really all that bad. The amount of harm that comes from him depends on how furious he is— if he's not beyond angry, i don't believe he would harm things or people around him on purpose.

I kinda wanna do a mukami version but idk if i can pull it off with the cramps that make me wish i could rip my uterus out of my body <3

poor kino

first his dad forgot him. now you

that boy just cannot outrun his bastard reputation, I swear

hi folks, if you like making characters and you wanna help someone out, here’s something a friend sent me:

I am working with a DnD DM to write a whole DnD based campaign to use to train medical trainees on how to respond to unexpected situations. Point is I need to fill a 100 bed hospital with a very large cast of patients, clinical hospital staff, non-clinical staff, volunteers, and family members. If I create a Google form/survey, would you all (and people you know) be willing to submit character ideas? I’m looking for a potential cast totally maybe 500 characters

it’s mostly so she has some template to go off rather than having to make up 500 characters all by herself. if a character is submitted and the info doesn’t quite match her needs, she’ll adjust them.

so, if you’d like to loan out some characters for a hospital au, if you have a character you’d like to give a terminal illness to, or if you just want to make up some random folks, kindly direct your energy here. I put xiao jie in there as a pharmacist to make her miserable (you can write the character info in 1st or 3rd person, whatever works)

I know another pal put a character in there for a minor surgery, and another character as a visitor so they could be dramatic and annoying together. anyway, low stakes but I’d appreciate if you could help out with this pal’s project 👍🏼

The World According to Kris (reverse!au) 1/4

K-008, Kritical or Kris to family and friends, suffers from Black Rust Disease, which is an infection that makes him rot from the inside.

Kris knows how much his family sacrificed for him and just wants to stop being a burden for once. He’s given that chance when he and his brother team up with humans to get their ticket back home. Maybe now, he can finally be the hero he always wanted.

Or

Reverse Roles AU and basically Kris takes Bee’s place in RotB, killed by Scourge trying to steal the transwarp key before being revived, followed by flashbacks on Noah’s and Kris’ life before the crash that sent hundreds of Cybertronians to Earth.

Ao3 Sneak Peek

Next

Kris has heard of the earthly saying, “your life flashing before your eyes.”

Oddly enough, when he felt his spark go out, the last thing he remembered wasn’t his life but the last conversation he had with his brother.

Kris remembers standing on a hill. The darkness of the night sky blocked the vision of any passing humans seeing metal aliens in the distance. The only thing illuminating is the shine of the stars against their plating.

Their human allies stand in a circle not too far from them. The blond teen Bumblebee stands next to his leader Optimus with the pink-haired motorcyclist Arcee standing on his other side. Mirage isn’t with them, busy grabbing the holotech promised to get Kris into the museum.

Kris is next to his brother and he spots the antennas on Noah’s helmet to flicker every few seconds. Clearly, the forest green Challenger wasn’t so fond of these squishy beings in the middle of their own mission to go home.

That doesn’t make sense. Humans are great! They made movies, video games𑁋although the one with the red plumber and the weird fire-breathing reptile is frustrating to finish𑁋and consume such colorful resources! The orange bot can’t help but envy the fact that he doesn’t have taste buds just thinking about it.

“What’s up with your face plate?”

Noah’s voice snaps Kris out of his thoughts, realizing the jealous scowl on his intake and immediately dropping his derma to a nervous smile.

“It’s nothing. Just thinking about how cool it would be to take a bite of those Earth cheeseburgers.” Kris assures his brother while trying to guess what a burger would taste like, “Do you think it’s like the Francium frankfurters back home or-”

“You know we can’t stay, right?”

Kris stops talking, looking up at the tall transformer. Noah’s voice was stern yet his expression looked delicate. It seemed he was afraid to offend the smaller bot while maintaining his usual serious older-brother persona.

The words regarding Earthly foods vanish from his glossa and the orange Viper just groans. “I know.”

A soft breeze leaves Noah’s cooling fans like an understanding but tired sigh, “You can’t get too attached to this planet. It will hurt even more when we have to leave.”

Kris grinds his denta. He knows that his older brother is just trying to protect him and he admires that. Everything that Noah has ever done was to protect him and his happiness, even at the sacrifice of his own. The memories of the bitter looks from everyone as Noah walked past them hurts just thinking about it and knowing those looks are because of him.

This involuntary visit to Earth would end eventually but that doesn’t soften the upcoming pain of having to leave this ruined yet beautiful planet.

Seven months ago when they crashed, the two brothers were separated. Noah was apparently all the way in Puerto Rico while the orange bot crashed near the border of New York all alone.

After a few Earth weeks, Kris had the bravery to venture into the city. With a teen holoform and a burnt orange pick-up truck alt, he drove into every part of New York. He ventured into Queens, Manhattan, and a bright red area they named Chinatown. He also visited Times Square where he copied the look of a beautiful Dodge Viper on display and had a newfound rage against human parking and traffic.

They were all flashy and beautiful but his favorite place was Brooklyn, mainly the small neighborhoods with kids that played on the streets, soft chatter from the sidewalks and the familiar feeling within the area.

Obviously, the place wasn’t completely safe—often startled and woken up by the sirens of the Decepticon police force almost every night—but something about this planet felt alive.

“You don’t understand.” Kris grumbles, trying to push down the frustration in his vocalizer, “Everything they make is so colorful! They don’t need movies, games or music to fight their bad leader. They just have it because they do!”

Kris looks away from his brother and onto the gathered humans with determination in their eyes as Mirage arrives. His silver Porsche pulls up and the driver begins to walk towards his team but first waving hello at the robots with the illusion disk at hand. Only Kris waves back in a similar manner.

“Their world is so messed up yet the Racers still have hope.” Kris crosses his arms and grins unapologetically, “So, sorry if I get attached. Human are just so fun!”

Noah’s brow plates furrow in confusion but now, his eyes gleam with a certain curiosity, “And how does fun help them survive?”

Surely in a world where humans are ruled under an iron fist, Mirage’s smile shouldn’t be as bright and wide at the sight of new friends and the hope in the Freedom Racers shouldn’t be so infectious.

“It doesn’t help them survive, it helps them live.”

Kris won’t ever know if Noah understood what he said or changed his mind about humans. He wouldn’t blame him after this.

A human controlling a Cybertronian’s corpse killed his little brother, who was trying to save humans.

The Viper isn't worried if Noah cares about humans. He worries how Noah will change.

Kris knew he died. He’s not stupid but not ready to leave his brother alone. Noah has always been protecting him and vice versa as much Kris tries.

With the younger one gone, who will protect his Sonic now.

gimme all those element thoughts!!

or a few! i love chemistry

I figured out how to like sorta read the periodic table a while ago and I was thinking about like how atomic radii works and shit.

So like, for the most part, you have seven different like energy level things where electrons can hang out n stuff. So for each group on the table there are a certain amount of the valance electrons (a generalization being made here).

Circle back to the super basic stuff here, in like the neutral charge version of each element, there is one proton for each electron. The number of protons is what defines the element's atomic number. So the higher the number gets, the stronger force the nucleus is going to put off, and in turn it's going to draw in the electrons closer to the nucleus which in turn makes the atomic radii smaller.

Maybe is just the autism but like that fucking nucleus love every single one those fucking electrons and it's gonna hold them as close to it as possible. There is so much love in the core of that atom and it'll be damned if it just leaves those electrons hanging around like fucking Francium or some shit.

Like idk I feel like the right side of the periodic table has a lot of emotions to go around

I'm gonna admit I teared up a little bit thinking about this, and it's not the first time either

Ik like this doesn't fully apply to all the elements n shit on the right side, this shit is messy, I'm not here to explain shit in a lot of detail

[shardthefuckingwhajje]

astatine is fuckin ridiculous

-theres no residual astatine, only decay products that immediately dissapear quicker than francium

-even synthesized astatine only lives for like 8 hours

-somehow has a use for treating thyroid cancer

-we have never seen it, but we assume its a black (maybe bluish) lusterous metalloid which is absolutely epic

-halogen (cool and epic)

-why do i wanna lick it,,,,shiney spicey metally chocloate

-i fuckin love it

Not enough men kissing.

Nor enough women actually.

Now that I think about it there are like maybe two poly relationships in this whole multiverse.

And why are there no enbys? I'm doing a terrible job.

AND WHY HASN'T THE FORT NUKED FRANCE YET?

NUKE FRANCE, I BLAME THEM FOR FRANCIUM

[thesnowqueen]

i don’t know much about chemistry and maybe this is a shitpost, but francium’s spot on the periodic table is still there, regardless of whether the element has a name/has uses/exists for more than a microsecond

like if we want elements 88-118 to exist, then element 87 (francium) has to exist too, even if only for a very very short time

i think all the elements deserve love, even if some of them are more useless than others

sometimes when I'm bored, I go through the list of recent bad faith Wikipedia edits that have since been reverted. a lot of them are politically contentious/offensive topics that attract crazies and trolls in general, but sometimes there are completely innocent inoffensive articles that people attack for no reason. some guy yesterday vandalized the article on the chemical element francium

Mechtober Day 21 - Weapons

@mechtober2022

What's The Favourite Way In Which You've Been Killed?, an investigation by Ivy Alexandria.

Captain-

No.

What?

Last time you did that you said it was because calling me captain had a 100% success rate when you wanted something from me. I'm not falling for it again.

I can wait.

…

God, okay, fuck it. I hate you. What do you want?

Thank you. What's the best way you've ever been killed?

Can I say a point in the future? Wait- no, that time last week. Final answer.

You have 604,800 seconds and 4 deaths to choose from. Which: plasma gun, stabbing, poison, or Raph's fancy laser sword?

Eh, 's not that deep. Pick any.

You are a terrible research participant.

*

Do you remember the time with the flamethrower?

An incredible case of arson gone wrong, yes. You really lived up to your name.

A pile of ashes? Yeah, but it was fucking hilarious. Best way I've done myself in yet.

Thank you for your contribution. This has a 53% chance of being the shortest interview I'll conduct today.

*

Am I interrupting anything?

If we leave it too long, the water will reach the francium and produce a violent reaction that will likely blow out the windows and result in us being sucked out into the void of space, where we'll implode, if we haven't already been caught in the blast.

I'm glad you're having fun. Before we all die painfully and explosively though, what's the best way in which you've been killed?

Marius' vivisection was fun!

Didn't you survive that one? You kept on poking fun at his shoddy scalpel handling.

Ah, good point. Then… that time Tim crushed me with a steamroller. It really sorted my back pain out.

*

Oh! Am I going to be part of your project!

You're the only one I have left, actually! I predict you will be 112.3% more useful than Jonny was.

I will try, old chap! 

So, favourite way you've been killed?

Every way is my favourite, when you fellows kill me! It's all rather fun pretending to be killed by you all. That's because I know you'll be around when I wake up! 

I think that would put me off in all honesty, but that's sweet. Follow up question: what if the rest of us weren't there?

What ever do you mean?

Well- statistically speaking, none of us will live forever. What if you were the last one standing?

I don't think I'd enjoy that very much at all. Maybe I'd go back to being a lower case toy soldier, and then it wouldn't be so bad, because I wouldn't know what I was missing anymore. It isn't fun pretending to be real on your own.

….I suppose not. Maybe Sartre was wrong when he said "hell is other people" (Huis Clos, 1943)

How did you say ( with your mouth!

[paradise-creator]

Amorette's song:

Royal Au! A slow dance with Kuroo Tetsuro in a secret garden only he knows. He was Enchanted by your figure, everything about you.

Genre: Fluff

Word count: 2.1k

The night was young and romance is in the air. The music from the palace was majestic and calming. The diamonds in the heavens displayed their nightly dance as the time passes. The violins and pianos that echo around the halls as the people danced in the ballroom. This masquerade ball was special, only the royals were kept unmasked. Everyone else had their mask on at the ball at all times. But, my midnight, those mask will fall and everyone will finally be revealed. It was an odd request in the half of the royals. However, it must be kept.

Other than the music playing, the night itself was silent. On the balcony, there stood the King of Nekoma, Kurro Testuro. The King looked truly divine underneath the moon, clad in his red suit with golden accents and a crown preached in his unruly ebony hair to display his status. Reaching out to the sky, he longed for something. He plucked a flower from a tree that reached up into the balcony and sighed. He wondered on why his heart ached and longed to be held gently.

He, the King of Nekoma, was able to get any girl he wants and yet he wants none of it. “Here’s what love is: a smoke made out of lovers’ sighs. When the smoke clears, love is burning in your lover’s eyes,” He then quoted. He wondered what that passage from Romeo and Juliet meant. He wanted to understand what love is and why people long for it so. His best friend, Bokuto Koutaro from Fukuronodani had already found his Queen. King Bokuto, he seems fulfilled, loved, and contented. Kuroo longed to know why that is or perhaps how it feels to finally be held and to hold someone so dear. It just never ceases to amazing him on how love can affect a person. To him, love was nothing but chemicals found in our brain. And yet, why did he long for it? Why did he yearned for loving arms to embrace him? But for now, he focused on his royal duties. He then sighed and went back inside, he didn’t want to make any one worried.

As the music chimes from the inside, the other nobles and royals enjoyed their time. “C’mon~ Enjoy the night!” your best friend then said as they looked at you. “Look at those two! Even the cottage outcast noble is enjoying,” They added as they looked at two nobles enjoying their time. “The cottage outcast?” You then said confused. “She usually doesn’t go to parties and not a lot of people know here. But her friends is such a socialite that her reputation increased. She’s still an outcast though,” They then said as they looked at the two nobles. Even the noble rank has a social hierarchy and you are disappointed at it. They then attempted to pull you in the dance circle. However, you didn’t budge, rather you shook your head. “I’ll be staying near the food table,” You then said as you turned. To you, these mere dances mean nothing. They don’t hold any meaning to one’s life, so what was the point.

You merely sighed and looked at your friend. You always wondered how to they were able to go along so well with the fake smiles and laughs. This masquerade ball was over the top, as usual. You then looked out the window. You looked at the blanket of diamonds and the moon. The sparkling stars and the light of the moon was magnificent. The foliage around the castle added a sense of mystery and comfort to the atmosphere. As you continued to watch the sky, a certain royal took notice of your figure. His golden eyes and ebony bed hair, everyone knew who he was and tried to get his eyes on them. But, his eyes only laid on one, you. He excused himself to go to you.

“Hello there M’lady,” He then said as once he was in front of you. You turned and was meet by his golden eyes. Once both of your eyes met, you both were enchanted by each other. You adjust your mask and looked away for a while. Blushing, you showed your respect by doing a curtsy. “Hello Your highness,” You then said as you stayed in a curtsy. “Please relax. No need for formalities,” He then said as he bowed. Once you stood up properly only to be met by his sweet smile. He took your hand and kissed your knuckles. “Such a pretty lady like you, I am blessed to be in your presence,” He said. “You humor me so,” You then said as you took your hand from his. “Humor you? I would never. Do you not have an escort? A date maybe?” He then asked.

“Your majesty, is this your way of asking me to accompany you?” You then responded as you looked at the window yet again. “You saw right through me, my lady. Color me impressed, most ladies would be a stuttering mess. May I know your name?” He then said as he stood beside you, watching the stars. “I would hate to be rude your majesty, however, I would like to keep myself a secret to you for until clock strikes mid night. You may address me with anything,” You responded. “Oh? Alright then, darling,” He then said as he glanced at you. You stood your ground and didn’t react that much. “It’s a pleasure to be acquainted, m’lady. King Kuroo Tetsuro at your service,” He then said. “It’s my pleasure,” You then responded as you bowed your head.

“May you do me the honor of accompanying me this fine evening?” He then asked as he offered his hand. “It would be my pleasure,” You then said with a smile and took his hand. Once you accepted his hand, his sweet smile became brighter and it became harder to resist. He then started leading you out of the ball room. You and your friend held eye contact and they silently cheered for you. You merely rolled your eyes at their antics before getting escorted by Kuroo. “Where are you taking me, your majesty?” You asked as you looked at him. “Please, call me Tetsuro. No need for the titles,” He then said as he looked at you fondly. “I’ll be escorting to a place in this place to which will enchant you,” He added as he patted your head. You looked at him with suspicion and he just chuckled. “Put faith in this king. I won’t do anything to make you uncomfortable. Please trust me,” He then said as he continued.

“I trust you, Tetsuro,” You then said with a smile. He looked away with a slight blush. The way his name roll off your tongue was sweet and smooth. He fell even harder if love at first sight did exist. Was this how Bokuto felt with his lover? The way his heart flutters whenever you smile. The way his cheek flush with a simple look from you. The way your hands fits into his like it was made just for him. But maybe, it was meant to be. Now he is joining up the dots of how he felt. And it all made sense to him. He won’t let these little things slip out of his mind because he knew, that it’s you. It’s you that they add up to, he’s in love with you.

After that, silence loomed over the two of you. It was tranquil and loving. Neither of you mind the silence, rather, you both accepted it. As the two of you walked, your attention was only on the male beside you. On how his red suit matches his persona. His golden eyes, so piercing and awe-striking. The ebony hair standing out with its style. And to him, all he can see was you. Your hair, your eyes, your smile, and it was all captivating. Soon enough you both travelled far enough that the music inside sounded like it was in the back of your head. You then took this time to finally seep in where you were. And you were amazed at the sight before you.

A few steps in front of you, was a huge pond, it even had a decent sized water fall near it. The trees and plants looked overgrown but it looked healthy. Fireflies danced around the sky as the diamonds in the heavens sparkled bright. It was enchanting, majestic, and romantic. You looked at Kuroo, who has stop to admire the scene. He looked back at you with a sly smirk and chuckled. “I got my ion you,” He then said. You buffered for a bit before chuckling. Whether you respond back or blush, his smirk never left. “You like it don’t you? Here’s another one,” He then said as he cleared his throat. “If you were an element you'd be francium because you're the most attractive,” He added as he placed his arm around you. After a few more lines and responses, you both burst out in laughter. “I haven’t had this much fun in ages,” Kuroo then said as he looked at you.

The music inside became louder and now the two of you can hear it clearly. Kuroo looked at the castle briefly before turning to you. “May I have this dance, M’lady?” He asked with a bow and you accepted his offer. You both step forward and bowed. You both circled eachother, gaze locked, and smile bright. His right hand rested on your waist as he looked at you, eye to eye. You place one hand on his shoulder, and you free hands met. Together, you danced to the music, completely in sync. As the song progressed, Kuroo’s only thought was how beautiful you are. The way your dress swayed as you move, the soft look in your eyes, your beautiful smile. It all placed him in a trance of sorts. He turned elegantly, his body in tune with the slow music. Yet there was a sense of hesitance. Was he falling for you already? Maybe, He’ll only let time tell. The warmth between you two grew and grew. And your heartbeats in sync with each other. The dance was perfect; everything from the breathing to how your feet moved in beat. If, by the end of the dance his breath would be taken away, he knew why.

A good lead is soft but not subtle. He clearly states his intentions of moving by himself, inviting his partner to follow along. Kuroo’s eyes looked around, making sure both of you won’t accidentally trip or fall. But, he is constantly aware of you in his arms, he wouldn’t have it any other way. His treats his follow with respect, never forcing movements from you, rather following her through every movement. He leads a step or pattern, you interpret the movement differently, he would adapt to you rather than forcing changed. As you danced with him, there was the feeling of security. His strong arms around you, you feel and know you can depend on him. He guided you across the garden as if it was straight out of a fairy tale book. Kuroo’s gaze now focused on you yet he still knew where to take you. Every moment, every second, every angle, it seemed as if it was planned and meant to be. Nothing felt forced rather it felt like you both were floating. He sang along to the music played. His voice deep and rich. Like a mermaid’s song, it captivated you.

An ideal follow puts her mass into movement, allowing her lead to feel exactly where she is and what she is doing. She adapts quickly to changes in direction, allowing her lead to take command, and trusting him explicitly with her safety and well-being. You savored the moments and movements that was happening as you danced. A perfect dance, something you thought you will never experience. Kuroo’s gaze on you told you to let go. Let go of all your worries, pain, and doubts. Whether you will trust him or not, depends on you. Either way, his arms pulled you closer to him, never wanting this moment to end. To him, nothing else mattered as long as you are in his arms. As you both danced, it felt like the world disappeared. As the song ended, so did the dance and his melodic tune. But still, he held you in his arms not wanting to let go.

“We’ve only met today, but you got me Enchanted,” Kuroo said softly as he placed his head on your shoulder. This whole moment was enchanting. The way he held you in his arms, as if he was afraid to let you go. The soft music of nature as the water fell in the pond and the bird’s songs. The way the moon let her light down on both of you as if you were the main character of a fairy tale. It was enchanting, majestic, and awe-striking. And both of you, wouldn’t change it for the world.

So this was what that ominous letter was about. Destiny tethered you to Kuroo Tetsuro, King of Nekoma. Will you accept?

So I made a playlist with every single track of music I have saved on my laptop. The whole gang’s here! We have Kill Yourself by Bo Burnham, every single Hetalia song I could get my hands on, A n g s t ~, Two Faced Lovers (times like, 17-18?), Francium, and multiple kikuo songs! All in the same playlist! (and not even to mention the Marukaite Chikyuu world mix) Listening to this playlist is a strange game of roulette. You don’t know what you’ll get when you hit that sweet, sweet, randomize button. Will you get Paradichlorobenzene? Or perhaps Bad Apple? Maybe even some weird Medley! I swear there’s probably like several songs in this bitch I forgot about.

Iskalium: The science!

Let’s get the facts about iskalium right out the way first: -Green. -Can be found as an ore. (Naturally spawning.) -Provides power when pressure is applied. -Can be made into a reactor, most definitely radioactive. -Found below y12, always in one block with cobblestone, sand, gravel or air around it. -You need a diamond pickaxe to mine the ore but you can mine the block with your hand. -Emits low light level. -energy at 160RF per tick

What is an ore? Ore: Noun, Oxford Definition: An ore is natural rock or sediment that contains desirable minerals, typically metals, that can be extracted from it. From this we can infer that Iskallium is most likely a metal.

What are the properties of a metal? -Conducts both heat and electricity well (check?) -Has a high melting and boiling point (check?) -Has a high density (problematic) -Ductile and Malleable. (Maybe?)

Iskalium is often portrayed as being a power source when pressure is applied meaning it’s likely piezoelectric. Or, it would be if my theory wasn’t busted: Piezoelectric is only available in crystals and metals are almost always polycrystalline. However, there are exceptions like amorphous metal and single-crystal metals. A microscopically-small piece of metal may naturally form into a single crystal, but larger pieces generally do not. So theoretically, Iskallium is most likely not piezoelectric unless it’s tiny, which a 1m cubed block of iskalium, is not.

And then I had a thought. Can metal just be a power source anyway? Metal can actually be a power source but only if it’s really thin. Which, a 1m cubed block of iskalium, is not.

So, iskalium is an impossible, energy producing metal? Yeah, basically.However, there’s one note saving this: iskalium is used in a reactor meaning it’s most certainly radioactive. Perhaps this is why it’s green? The fact that cobblestone spawns around it is also strange. It implies the stone is cracked or damaged which means it emits heat energy. However, this doesn’t explain the sand, gravel or air. I mean, the gravel could possibly be the stone got so cracked it became gravelly in texture and air could be the stone disappeared altogether, but that still doesn’t explain the sand.

Continuing off of that, Iskalium is also highly unstable as it needs a catalyst (redstone) in order to be crafted into power tap.

Iskalium is dense because it’s a metal but not dense because it’s a sediment ore. However it’s dense because you need a diamond pickaxe to mine it but not dense because you can mine it with your hand. Do you see why this metal is causing me so much grief?

Finally, after 3 stressful hours of research, I asked my brother who knows a lot about the periodic table to help. He reviewed my knowledge and narrowed what iskalium may possibly be most similar to down to a few elements. Considering it doesn’t melt your hand off, it wasn’t one of the super dangerous ones like francium. Considering it’s naturally spawning and not man made, there goes elements like flerovium and tennessine. It’s also a metal so there goes a lot of the stuff on the right. He also got rid of all the elements that don’t produce heat. (There was more but the reasons were too complex for my stupid brain.)

(Refer to image.)

So we ended up nailing it down to a few actinides and a few other late table elements.  He says it’s most like thorium but the others are also valid. My brother is very trustworthy, he’s in top set year 8 chemistry and physics.

So in conclusion, Iskallium makes some sense but this was more trouble than its worth. Anyway, time for me to make some headcanons.

(Some (a lot) of this is probably wrong so feel free to correct me on some things.)

beryllium, francium, krypton, nitrogen

Beryllium: favourite joke? 

I fucking love puns so my favorite one that i can remember is the one i made after they killed the baron by accident in what we do in the shadows and since they accidentally broke his body in half as well I said " He's no longer a baron he's a dis-count"

Francium: if you could use any mode of transportation with no negative impacts, which would you use?

Rat swarm teleportation magic or just magic

Krypton: do you want to dye your hair? what colour? Yeah I've done it before maybe a a brown blondish or light blue

Nitrogen: you’re in a horror movie. who does your group consist of? who is which “character trope”? I don't know how to answer this
