Another classic conversation with the family:
Me: I just want to know what they mean by human remains that they found in the Titan sub. Like what was left at that point. Bones? Teeth? Can you get DNA from teeth and bones?
My mom: You can get DNA from bone marrow. I don't know why they bothered DNA testing it though. What did they expect to find?
Me: Ok but imagine if they did DNA testing and they found a sixth guy down there
#this conversation started when my dad went 'did you hear what they found with the titan sub'#me: ... it exploded?#him: they found marks from ~*giant squid tentacles*~#me: ah. now it all makes sense#we're over here spitballing new shitty scifi original movie concepts while carpooling to costco#and so naturally I'm harping on one of my favorite subjects: mortal remains

What can I say? They're my favorite.
#twdg#twdg clouis#clouis#twdg clementine#twdg louis#sometimes they creep back into my mind and i'm like 'ah yes' like a crow admiring a pretty stone they found years ago and kept#also thank you pi for the screenshots. i used to have a whole folder full of them but that was when i was doing themed nights#the source for these is me i just have a random document full of dynamics and ship things i enjoy because.....i dunno i like keeping track#and so many of them apply to clouis but there's also an overlap of with clouis and rose/alistair [my warden from origins and alistair] like#alistair's romance route is like an evolved matured and extended version of clouis sksksks gee i wonder if i have a type#look you present me with a character who deflects with humor and isn't taken seriously by the rest of the group and the longer you know the#the more you realize how high they've built a wall around themselves and how *unwell* they really are and how they're not as sunshine#as they present themselves and also they avoid leadership and responsibility until they grow closer with someone who pushes them#and they end stronger and more balanced as a person while finding the affection they've craved#and also there's the daddy issues#present me with that character as a romantic option and i'm in no questions asked okay i don't want the mean broody one that's meh to me#i want the one that has every reason to be broody but chooses not to be because they have a completely different defense mechanism#and a warped sense of themselves and self-esteem issues they leave unaddressed until forced to face them#i'm just saying i'm aware that i have a type i'm always going to gravitate toward clouis nearly checks all the boxes#also the lack of clouis these days? my crops are thirsty and i have too many ongoing projects to do anything about it other than this sksks#so until i make time to finish my long ass louis/clouis analysis this is the best i can provide for now

“We belong to the Earth and the sea, you belong to the stars.”
— Zhang Beihai (The Dark Forest - Cixin Liu)
#quote#three body problem#the dark forest spoilers#i initially wrote down this quote because of how beautiful it is#at the time it only seemed like an observation of how much humanity has changed over time#but now i can't help but think about what he does later on...#saying he is a defeatist or escapist doesn't feel like it captures his motivations#he realised they changed and knows they will have to change even more#his motivation is not simply catastrophising or fleeing but rather *developing*#if that makes sense?#to him going into space was the only logical next step for humanity to survive#making this quote as much an observation as it is a prediction#which is beautifully done#also thinking about his thought later on of how instead of finding a habitable planet they might be travelling in space forever#but that this generation wasn't ready yet to consider that#of course his ship had to be called Natural Selection lol not very subtle there#also:#the phrasing 'we' against 'you' makes me think that he knew he wouldn't be a part of this in the end#for someone who thinks things through as much as he does#some part of him must have realised there would be no place for him in this new version of humanity#ah i'm having many feels over here#(still not a fan of someone acting all by themselves and justifying all their actions with 'duty'#but i find him a lot more interesting than expected and also like him a lot more)#...this may have worked better as an actual text post rather than this mess of tags but here we are#zhang beihai#the dark forest

i do feel annoyingly contrarian at times in term of loki/brodinson fandom thoughts but a bit of me (quite a large bit) thinks "maybe if any of you were even mildly critical of this character on occasion i wouldn't feel the need to counter the overwhelming amount of 'Blorbo Did Nothing Wrong' and/or point out that a lot of this Nothing Wrong-ness involves people quoting headcanons as fact even if they clearly conflict with what were shown."
and on a less confrontational level... there's not that much fun potential? there's no challenge in arguing Nothing Was Did Wrong when people will just agree with you on principle and every (even overly) generous interpretation has already been made ad nauseum already.
#the extent and nature of some of the invented persecution rubs me the wrong way sometimes#eg how Magic = Womanish is both accepted as oppressive but ALSO somehow seen as Actually True Though. what's that about?#how does the magic hammer work then? how does dad make other son unable to use magic hammer? HOW IS ASGARD FLAT????#IT'S FUCKING MAGIC ISN'T IT???? it's like deciding electric indoor lighting is womanish even though we all have it aye?#meanwhile actual womans... well let's just leave that one for now. we have not the time and i am already annoyed anyway.#BUT JANE FOSTER ASTROPHYSICIST DID NOT DESERVE FOR THERE TO BE A FLAT FUCKING PLANET IN THE SKY DID SHE???#“oh but it's mag-” AH! AH! magic like the electric lighting that destroys one's manly essence? that magic?#no i *will* post this i need to get that follower count down again before it bumps me up an income tax level#(...that joke seemed to make sense in my head when i thought of it)

here, have some of the things that have been in my sketchbooks for a while
#doodles#non fandom stuff#there's everything from doodles to d&d characters#and silly comics that i'd make if i was making a comic about a bookstore#and drawings that would be covers for a manga about philosophy but also baking also it's BL bc that sells well at bookstores#according to the coworker who came up to me with the idea about it in a rush#and this isn't even counting the fandom-y stuff i still have yet to post#but those i like to post in groups now so i wait until i have a certain amount of work and then throw it out#unless i decide it's nice enough on its own#what else do i have...#ah yes some fire emblem things as usual#stuff about touken ranbu in various noteebooks and of varying amounts of sense#arknights nonsense if you believe it#uhh some more devil may cry stuff but it is all cringy silly oc shit that may never see the light of day#and then like a ton more of those lil work comics that i keep meaning to post but i think i'd have to properly scan them#because of how they are in the notebook i drew them in... hmmmmmm#anyway here are some things to look at it please enjoy

Ahhhh second first date! Second first date! Of course i need to know how it goes!!
"And the server was definitely super jealous of me."
Thena laughed again. That was all she'd been doing since they left the house, she was quite sure. Since Gil 'picked her up', that was to say.
It was very sweet. He had showed up at her guest room door, dressed up and with a charming smile, even making an attempt to look nervous. He asked if she was ready, offered his arm; he was the perfect gentleman for their first date.
Her second chance.
Of course she had to know more about their first-first date. And Gil was happy to elucidate her once she insisted enough that telling her that much would not cause her brain to catch fire (as the doctor seemed to have implied in some way).
"But it was a nice dinner, then I walked you back to where you were staying at the end of the beach," he recounted, his eyes completely starry. "I had never gotten to actually have a romantic walk on the beach, before. Total bucket list stuff."
"It sounds lovely," she remarked mildly, without much choice with no memory of it for herself.
"The moon was out and everything, and it looked really pretty with your hair and your white dress, and the shawl thing-y you had on over it." Gil gestured vaguely to simulate the flowing garment she had worn over her bare shoulders. It certainly painted a picture, and she was quite sure she knew what he was referring to, having glimpsed a long white shawl in their closet.
She tried not to laugh too hard, mindful of the gentle atmosphere of the bakery. The tables were really just for people waiting for orders. They didn't have a fancy coffee machine, or an official barista. But Gil did bring out cups of real, boiled hot cocoa from the back--a secret only for their own, of course. They were waiting on their fresh baked pastries to come out and cool.
"I was so distracted by you that I didn't even realise when we were back at your doorstep," he sighed, but his comedic tone faded. He looked at her more softly, leaning his cheek against his hand. "I told you flat out that I was having such a good time I wished you were staying further away."
Thena attempted to laugh into her mug, this time.
"You laughed at it then, too." He sounded more wistful now. "But I told you I was serious and asked if I could see you again. I don't know why you were so surprised."
Probably because she had never been one to be asked out by someone like him. Men, sure, but not very sweet, very funny, very honest gentlemen like Gil. Just...men. She wasn't approachable enough for someone as sweet and charming as Gil.
She still thought that, to a degree.
"But you agreed, and I asked if I could kiss you too," he at least smiled at this part of the story, although his longing for the past remained. "You said I didn't have to ask, which wasn't a yes, but I guessed I was supposed to read between the lines."
Again, the Thena in the story and Thena herself in the present were different people. But she felt her stomach clench faintly at the idea.
"I did kiss you," Gil sighed, returning to his lighter, more jovial tone. "And it totally blew my mind. I mean if I wasn't in love with you already, that would'a done it."
"Gil," she admonished lightly, partly laughing and partly sheepish at the description of this passionate kiss she couldn't remember at all.
"What?" he chuckled before taking a sip of his own hot chocolate. "You wanted to know. And that date changed the rest of my life, sweetheart."
She liked it when he called her that. She nodded, looking down at her mug. "I suppose I did. It's a nice story."
"Yeah," Gil concluded, although his sigh felt a little heavier.
She still didn't have any memories of her own to contribute. But she attempted to jump over that wave of guilt, trying to put a smile back on his handsome face. "What was our second date like?"
He clearly knew what she was trying to do, but he kept quiet about it at least. He pulled himself up in his seat and started his next story. "Well, we were still on vacation. I asked a little more about you, and you at least told me you were an artist, and you were there on leave because you found teaching wasn't really your thing."
Thena winced faintly. She was sure that was an understatement. She did have memories of teaching before moving to their current residence, and none of them made her glad to have them instead of memories of Gil.
"I told you that I had been a boxer in college, and that I was just working some boring office job and also wanted," he paused to shrug and make a face, "a change of scenery."
They were both in the midst of becoming different people when they met. How fascinating, Thena mused. Although she was quite sure Gil had always been sweet and charming and funny. Just a feeling.
"It was actually you, on that date, who asked what I liked to do for fun," he admitted much more quietly. He looked down at the table, picking at a chip in the lacquer. "I told you I liked baking and you said I could try working part time in it, just to see if I liked it enough to make it my job."
"It sounds like something I would suggest," she agreed. It was hard to imagine the man she knew now doing anything else, really. Although it was almost funny to imagine him stuffing those muscles of his into a regular office suit.
"I said I'd give it a try," he chuckled, reaching for her hand. She gave it reflexively, sense memory knowing Gil much better than her own mind. He kissed her knuckle. "And now I have the best job in the world."
She smiled down at their adjoined hands as well, feeling as if the weight of the world were on top of them. "The date, Gil?"
"Right, right," he chuckled, allowing her to move the story away from the more emotional of the topics. "Well, you suggested that, and I asked about your art some more. And since the restaurant looked kind of full, and I didn't think that was your scene, I asked if you wanted to walk along the boardwalk a little first."
"We walked by a bakery there, and you asked me what everything was, since I was 'the expert' and all."
That also sounded like something she would say; Thena attempted not to roll her eyes at herself.
"I pointed out the regular stuff," he shrugged and even looked at the pastry cases in front of them in the moment. "Croissants, cupcakes, they had some tarts. You asked about one in particular."
Thena tilted her head as he paused, but she leaned back as he did, having been so sucked into the story that she didn't even notice Ajak coming over with two small plates.
"Thanks," Gil smiled at the petite woman, obviously familiar with her.
"Thank you," Thena added, keeping her eyes on the woman who only smiled and waved in response. Ajak knew her, Thena was aware, but Gil had been determined that they could meet formally when Thena felt more ready to reintroduce those parts of their life to herself.
"This is called a petit four, just a small cake," he chuckled, turning his own plate so she could admire the little dessert from all sides. "It's pretty old school, but you asked me about it when I pointed it out to you. I bought one so you could sample it, even though you told me not to."
Thena eyed the little dessert. It seemed to be vanilla, small and glazed completely white. There was something on the top of it.
"I add just a little sea salt to mine. Call it a secret ingredient."
It was just a hint of salt, but it sank into the sweetness immediately. Just like on that day five years ago, she had tasted the saltiness of the ocean air around them as she took a bite. She could remember the wind on her skin, and how warm Gil's hand was in contrast. The smell of the little shop and the breeze around them, and Gil's cologne wafting gently over to her.
Thena whipped her head up at him. He blinked at her sudden movement but didn't say anything. He was trying to read the expression on her face.
She didn't have any other memories of it. Just that one moment had jumped out at her as she had tasted that same taste--perhaps an improvement upon it. She could remember Gil's smile as she had told him that she liked it.
"You promised."
"Hm?"
She blinked, trying not to cry over a silly little cake. "You promised you would make me one sometime. I told you I expected it to be better, since you were indeed, 'the expert'."
Gil teared up immediately. Of course he did, the gentle hearted giant. "Y-You-"
She looked down at her cake again, the pressure immediately mounting. "It's just that one moment. I can't remember past that. But-"
Thena startled as he launched from his seat across the tiny cafe table from her. He caught her lips at a funny angle, but they both tasted like chocolate and vanilla and sea salt. Her eyes fluttered.
"Sorry," he chuckled, offering a sheepish grin as he seated himself, ignoring the worried glances of other bakery patrons. "Couldn't help myself."
"Hm," she pursed her lips faintly, and he returned to his cake, unable to keep himself from staring at her. She dabbed at her lips, resisting the urge to fan herself. She still had her coat on, but it felt far too hot now in their little corner by the window. "Whatever happened to asking?"
"You told me I didn't have to ask."
#Thenamesh Vow AU#thank you so much sweetheart!#I love this au so I'm very happy to write more believe me#so in the movie she actually never regains any memories at all#which I did find interesting#but I think Thena and Gil have been through enough#taste really can unlock a deluge of memories and sensations#and now that they've made this progress#Gil is gonna be obsessed with making her stuff they've had together#Thena tells him not to get too ahead of himself#she's worried about disappointing him if she doesn't remember more#but he's just so overcome with happiness#people in the bakery look at him like dude calm down#and he's like#sorry can't a man kiss his WIFE in a moment of passion?#Thena drags him back into his seat because he's embarrassing her#Ajak is just behind the counter like ah young love#Now Gil wants to repeat all their dates#in a sense of the word#They literally get home and have brunch right after this but still#Thena texts Kari like wow had a wonderful first date#Makkari: WITH WHO#Thena: my husband obviously

The real question is if Neuvillette = surname, does that mean that each and every Melusine is also Neuvillette?
#genshin impact#afinna explores teyvat#genshin impact thoughts#genshin impact neuvillette#this is a very hear me out moment#ALSO I might be completely wrong bc even though I’ve studied French for a long while now I haven’t practiced it actively in recent years#and my memory about its rules may be off#but somehow Neuvillette as a surname that includes all-feminine species makes A LOT of sense to me#bc idk Neuvillette sounds feminine to me? this is where I might be completely wrong but#I see -ette ending and think ‘ah. a feminine word’#this is actually. when first mentioned. I thought that Neuvillette was Furina#bc I thought it was a feminine name#all of this to say I also think about Arlecchino the Father and Neuvillette the Mother thingy a lot#lots of parents and children in Fontaine hm hm hm#ah yes the holy trinity arlecchino the father neuvillette the mother and Furina the parent that messed up TM#…I’m very sorry lol

as a trekkie they said "frontier" so much that I am now plotting a whole AU in my head. I feel Wyll would be a great captain (and also literally no one else in the group could do it)
#ah yes the tieflings from the planet infernal#antiqua plays bg3#not sure if I wanna find different races for them or just be like and move on#karlach as a klingong is so obvious that I don't wanna#astarion would be a great romulan but would never have a bowl cut#althought if he was a romulan kidnapped by orions or some shit and then shipped back he could be like ooooops I forgot it all#no bowl cuts and horrible eyebrows for me!#shadowheart would be a cardassian in the order that is a given#lae'zel would be from somewhere in the gamma quadrant that used to be dominion#gale is still human who was sent to vulcan for psi training and considering he is gale it did NOT go great#halsin is just from a colony where space shit happened and he now he can turn into a bear. no explanation#actually what if he and jaheira were bajorans and druid powers were a result of cardassian fucked up stuff#since halsin and shadowheart do have shar beef#mh.#Mmmmmh#MMMMMMH#bg3 star trek au#that exists only in my mind#minsc should also be bajoran#minthara as a vorta makes no sense but I don't think you can do her religion theme with many others#also purple#I guess in this AU wyll still has horns because space bullshit happened#THE EMPEROR IS A CHANGELING AND BECAUSE THIS IS STAR TREK HE CAN JUST DECIDE HE LIKES BEING A TENTACLE MONSTER AND THEY ALL ACCEPT IT
