Oh BOY do I have a history with that app..
Now listen to me young man, I am talking directly into your ear now. I need you to do me a favor. You will do this for me. I need you to go to the app store, and I need you to download iNaturalist. If you come back without identifying a cool bug you'll be in big trouble mister. You will never see the light of day.

THE NIGHT WE MET
(Black coded reader) Frat!boy Rafe x shy!bunny!reader {not proof read so sorry for any mistakes!!}
Tumblr media
He watched as you sat alone on the bleachers. Watching the football game that played infront of you. You weren’t one for social activities. Always kept to yourself. Reading your little books and tucking your braids behind your ear. He thought you were weird. I mean you barely had any friends. Didn’t play a sport. Unless you count that lame ass book club you’re in. He was so curious about you. What were you really like? What were your interests? What was your middle name? So many questions he had yet to find the answers to.
“Get your head in the game Cameron!” His coach yelled stopping his thoughts. He had the ball in his hands running toward the touch down. And boom. Everyone went wild and his teammates all surrounded him. “There we go!” Barry yelled. Rafe smiled slightly. Still too focused on you. Watching as you clapped and began to pack your things. “What the hell are you looking at camer- oh.” Barry sighed and looked at Rafe with a deadpanned expression “are you serious. her!? Out of all people?” Rafe looked back at him. A scold on his face. “Don’t act like she’s fucking ugly or something. Because she’s not.” Rafe said. “I never said she was ugly Rafe. She isn’t. But she would be way hotter if she fucking talked.” Rafe scoffed and began to walk off. “I mean you don’t even fucking know her!” Barry yelled. Rafe ignored him. Walking off the field to the locker room. He packed his stuff and changed into his normal clothes as he headed out. It was pretty dark since most of the games started at 6 and ended at 9. meaning most of the people went straight home. So it was pretty empty.
As he was walking to his car he noticed a girl on the ground next to her car. A yellow beetle. He watched as she raised her hands to her head. Sighing loudly but softly. He threw his bags in the car and walked over. “Hey” he yelled. “huh?” you turned around facing him. Eyes watery and cheeks flushed.
oh, it’s her.
“oh, hi.” you say back. voice barely above a whisper. “uh, are you okay?” He sticks his hand out in attempt to help you up but you decline. Grabbing the handle of your car door to stand up instead. “um, my car broke down.” You sighed as tears began to well up in your eyes, avoiding his gaze. He softened at your expression. “I don’t know what to do. My phone is dead and I don’t have a charger.” you whimper, attempting to hold back your sobs. He looked at his watch, 10:46. He smiled and looked back at you. “I could take you home if you want.” Your face expressed a feeling of shock and you finally looked him in the eye. “Really?!” You asked excitedly. “Of course- uh what’s your name? Sorry.” He said nervously. You giggled and looked away shyly. You then looked back up at him and smiled. “I’m y/n, and you?” He smiled and chuckled softly. “I’m Rafe. Anyway, cmon my car is over here.” You followed as he began to walk towards his car. As he reaches his car he opens the door for you. “Hop in doll” you smile and do as he says. He walks over to the drivers side and gets in. “Alright where do you stay?” he asks. “I live up north side in the house next to the shack.” “Really?!” He asks shocked. “Yeah” you respond. “I always wondered who lived there…how come I never see you around.” You sigh and look out of the window. He thinks he fucked up and gets worried. “Well, I don’t really have friends to hang with. So I guess I’m just…always in my room.” You mumble quietly. He starts the car and looks back over to you. “Well, you should come out with me and my friends sometime.” You look back to him and smile. “I would like that, thanks.”
The ride was pretty quiet. The only distinct noice was the wind from the open windows and the quiet song that played on the radio. As he pulled into your driveway he sighed. Not in a bad way but because of the fact that his time with you was over. As you were about to open the door to head out he stops you. “Hey wait!” He grabs your hand and you turn back around. “Yes?” You smile at him lightly. “Um, tomorrow at 6? Me and my friends are hanging out and I’d love for you to come.” You smile yet again. “I would love to come, Thanks for inviting me! Cya!” You hop out of his truck and walk to your door. He stays to make sure you make it in safely. As you shut the door behind you he smiles. “Cya sweetheart.”

EDIT: i made this list only a little while ago and ever since then SO MANY FINDINGS ARE OUT!!!! OMG EVERYONE IS SO SMART!!! this list is VERY VERY SMALL ANS A LITTLE OUTDATED!!! for the more updated version, go to my profile and it’s the pinned post!!!!!
🏡 The Welcome Home Update Discovery List!🏡
DISCLAIMER🏡 this edit is a HUGE WIP right now and i edit this post very frequently! VERY. i can find new material very fast, which makes it hard to publish it all fast!
hello neighbors! the new welcome home update just released and i hopped on in immediately—i made a post about it literally 10 minutes ago. since then, i’ve already found MORE and MORE content!! thus, to share this information with the fandom and also help others find how to access some of this information (of which nobody else has really posted about yet AT THE MOMENT I AM TYPING THIS) i’ve decided to create a big update masterlist of everything me and others have found it this update it will be updated regularly and will be pinned on my acc! happy findings! (ps: please boost this if u can i want to solve mysteries with this hellsite!!)
Tumblr media
🏡videos!🏡
side note—it appears all the main glitchy videos with the voice actors can be found by clicking on the numerous bugs around the site! SIDE side notes—i don’t use a computer to access welcome home, so maybe there is a way to do this on a computer. on the front page wayyyyy at the bottom near the count of how many people have visited the site, there’s a beetle i cant click on that just SCREAMS “click me!” PLEASE someone click it because it will not be me
the spider — found on the top right of the “stickers” page, this video goes through a conversation between barnaby & julie, with julie saying really bad jokes in attempt to be funny (she’s is but she isn’t at the same time! i love corny jokes so she’s funny in my eyes). also, something i’ve noticed throughout these videos appears to be that wally is in many, if not all of them. he’s just nonverbal and does not speak. at ALL. but he is in them. barnaby actively talks to a person beside from julie, and at the end, julie says a sentence that ends with “… wasn’t it wally?” asking for his opinion. BUT BUT BUT the video cuts and glitches off as soon as she says wally! it’s very similar to how all these videos end!!
the praying mantis — found at the bottom of the “about us” page, clicking on a little preying mantis will lead you to a video of sally and julie rehearsing for a play! idk if it has any deep meaning yet (besides the random deep voice at the end) but it’s so silly!!!! like julie is so silly i love her!!!! (TW minor glitching and weird deep voice at end which is sorta a pattern in the vids)
the fly — found on the page titled “welcome home” and can be accessed by clicking on a fly that appears on screen. this video depicts frank and barnaby’s voices, discussing frank’s flowers in his garden. the video itself shows what appears to be a smashed orange/pumpkin thing in a woodsy area, as (what i think looks like) a face looms in the background (TW sorta loud noises and glitching!
🏡audios!!🏡
both of these audios are of wally speaking directly to the listener, and can be found on the “welcome home” titled page (at least that’s where i found them) by clicking on crayon-drawn flowers shown here:
Tumblr media
yellow flower — depicts wally asking the listener “what are you waiting for? to hear from me again? hahaha! that means you can hear me.” , as a heartbeat noise is heard in the background (it’s not as creepy as it sounds i promise)
red and blue flowers — wally saying; “that’s what an eye looks like. my eyes are black. what color are yours?” as a heartbeat noise plays in the background
house scribble — found DIRECTLY on the front page like as soon as you enter the site. wally says; “there you are! welcome home! hahaha” he’s so silly imo
the star — found on the stickers page by clicking the star scribble. this one kinda scared me a LITTLE with what was happening on screen but wally says: “do you like to draw? i do. do you know how to draw an eye? first, you draw a circle. then, you draw a smaller circle inside. then, you color it in.” this one’s really cool go watch it and you’ll see!
🏡other stuff i noticed (WIP)!!🏡
in the “spider” video, julie says to barnaby that her joke will “knock your [barnaby’s] head off!” which is funny, but not the haha way. because there is art made by clown illustrations of barnaby, who’s head is rolled on the floor
Tumblr media
like. ITS RIGHT INBETWEEN HIS LEGS ON THE FLOOR. HIS HEAD IS OFF

DISCOVERIES OF THE NEW WELCOME HOME UPDATE (SPOILERS?)
NOTE: this is a first cursory glance without getting into things! Also, every video mentioned has a transcript below the video (ctrl+a) to highlight it.
First off the first page! If you zoom out on the left and right there are two eyes watching you @:)
WELCOME
Tumblr media
The red drawn house is clickable and leads you to a welcoming audio (clownillustrations.com/i)
There is an out of place letter Y in the Serendipitous Salutations.
In Wally's character description if you click on his canvas itll bring you to a page with another audio file. This one is more direct, and silly! (Clownillustrations.com/will)
NEIGHBOURHOOD
The so-below has a spiral that when clicked brings you to a glitching audio file. The record acts weird and the audio is a series of squeaks and clicks. Most likely Morse code (from Home )!! (Clownillustrations.com/neighbor)
The so-below graphic has been updated to a black void with a white eye and spiral (image below)
Tumblr media
If you click the beetle on the bottom right you get another hidden page. This one is a video and a message (looks to be a transcript). It is from Poppy with Frank talking about her recipe. It's pretty sweet haha. Glitches out at the end with Wally @:) (I think there is a freeze frame? The video cannot be replayed nor paused) (Clownillustration.com/9-14-fp)
There is another bug with Eddie that brings you to a video between Eddie and Frank. Glitches out when Wally is mentioned. (Clownillustration.com/8-14-ef)
There is an out of place X letter.
Fun thing! If you select all on the page home doesnt get blued-out.
Tumblr media
The O is out of place
ABOUT US
The blue drawn heart is clickable. It brings you to another audio file. Wally is being so silly @:) (clownillustration.com/a)
Overlapped text: "When I unwrapped the first letter, I felt it. I heard it. Open. Open. Open. I want it out. I'm going to get it out."
The wally darling is my favourite line js new I think? Wally is being mentioned more overall.
In the bottom right another bug will appear that leads you to another hidden page. This is a video where Sally and Julie are talking, and "Williford" Wally is mentioned at the end (clownillustration.com/10-14-js)
The yellow drawn star is another link to audio. This one is very helpful @:) (clownillustration.com/i-2)
STICKERS
Top right there is a spider that brings you to a video where Julie and Barnaby are chatting. Glitches out again at the end when Wally is mentioned. (There is an mention during the conversation that he's there, I think that's different than the rest?) (clownillustration.com/11-14-jb)
Theres a few letters that look odd in the first part (in order of appearance): K P I (first one could be C, second could be S, third could be T. Might be in pairs of CK, SP, TI)
I managed to get a small blue orb thing in the top left but clicking did nothing. It is gone and couldn't be selected so that might have been just a my-laptop glitch. Weird though!
None of the stickers or banners are clickable (havent checked names)
There is a Caterpillar on the top right with another video. This one is between Howdy and Barnaby. Also glitches when Wally is mentioned. (Clownillustration.com/12-14-hb)
NEWS
E is out of place
The guestbook has officially been closed! Unless you submitted something a while back you cannot submit anything anymore. Understandable but unfortunate. There is a message to the guest book writers after the most recent update. Please respect boundaries @:)
There is a beetle on the top right that leads to another video between Edie and Howdy. Howdy calls Edie Ed and Julie Jewels @:P. Also glitches when Wally is mentioned (clownillustration.com/13-14-he)
GUESTBOOK
The drawn hello is clickable and leads to another audio. Theres some connectivity issues @:P (clownillustration.com/find)
I am too eepy to go through the rest of the guestbook but there is lots of new messages and images!
There is a little bug hiding in the top right that has another video link. This is a talk between Poppy and Sally. Wally is about @:) (clownillustration.com/2-14-sp)
EXHIBITION
Specifies that Welcome Home started airing on October 11th 1969 until sometime in 1974 (4 to 5 years).
I didnt go through to test the brightness and read the text for all of the images of the gallery. There are multiples with text!
The house drawing on the bottom left is clickable and leads to more audio. It's very friendly @:) (clownillustration.com/understand)
There is a bug on the left halfway down with another video. This is a talk between Howdy and Poppy. Wally is about @:) Glitches when Wally is mentioned (clownillustration.com/1-14-ph)
MEDIA
Theres a lot more on this page that I will go through later!
MERCHANDISE
You need to wait for the butterfly to appear at the Currently Unknown Records subtitle. Leads to another video where Frank and Julie were talking back and forth. It's very Silly @:P. Glitches when Wally is mentioned. (Clownillustration.com/6-14-jf)
OTHER
When trying different possible codes I managed to get a drawn stars on the error page that leads to another audio! This one I did not expect. It shows up after waiting a few moments, either appearing or being drawn in a 2 star or 5 star formation. (Clownillustration.com/soon)
The hidden Wally audios lead to a possible hidden message: "I WILL (HELP?)(FIND?) YOU NEIGHBOR (A?) (I?) (WILL?) UNDERSTAND (YOU) SOON". My guess is "I will help find you neighbour. I will understand soon". But that doesnt explain where "A" and "WAY" would go. It could also read "I will find a way to help you neighbor" (although "to" is not one of our words).
There is another hidden audio you get from clicking the drawn heart of YOU (clownillustration.com/you-1)
YXWVOE still works. Transcript has been added.
WOXYVE now had a cockroach that leads to another video where Barnaby and Home have a conversation. This takes place after his conversation with Julie and Howdy as he mentions both. It glitches out once Wally is mentioned. (Clownillustration.com/14-14-bh)
YWXOEV has a drawing of a phone after a few moments. Another audio with the transcript. Wally is being so Silly @:p (clownillustration.com/way)
VOYWEX works the same. I waited for a while and there were no added text or drawings.
EOVWXY works the same. Fhe webpage is also called answer, just like Wally's hidden audio files. Sounds like Wally is trying to communicate through the static at times?
That's all I found tonight without going through all the new images! It is 2am here, but it's so fun being able to dive into the new update!
By typing in different words you can get audio from HELP and PHONE (seems different than old phone call audio. More has been added, voice has been updated).
THOUGHTS
Also I have a guess that with all the videos the first numbers might put them into a chronological order? If true there may be up to 14 hidden audios as the last one (Barnaby and House) is 14-14 (14 our of 14). Might not work or mean anything if there are duplicate numbers (or they are happening at the same time).
If they can be placed in order, perhaps a new message or secrets can be found with the two letters they all end with! This I will test tomorrow.
Also the eyes appear on all pages out on the left and eight, most likely belonging to Wally as he makes multiple inferences towards eyeballs and him being related (I can see you, I see out of the eyes on my you've drawn, here is how you drawn eyes, etc.)
There has also been a lot of stuff relating to bugs, which Frank directly mentions is his expertise. Frank also is in multiple videos, which seems like there may or may not be a connection. I forget now, but it should be checked if Frank ever asks Wally's opinion since that is when videos glitch and end. If he does not, then that may be a sign that Frank knows more than they're letting on.
Good Bye for now!

I have a local cryptid that I've seen about twice. Nobody who believes me can understand what it looks like, and everyone else just thinks I'm crazy.
Before you get super excited, I want to let you know that it's some sort of bug or animal. It's not extra terrestrial or monster-esc, it's just a really weird bug.
TW for vague descriptions of dead animals
Several things to get out of the way before I can describe it to you.... I live in Michigan, so anything that doesn't live around here is out of the question... and I collect bones from dead animals.
Ok, now the describing. About a year ago I was out tending to my maceration station (the place I keep my roadkill so that the bugs can eat away the bits and I can collect the bones once they're done) when I spotted this.... thing.
It was about four inches long, two inches wide. It had wings, and was flying like how a humming bird would do. Sort of hovering and dashing around. It's abdomin had two bright yellow lines and the shape of it reminded me of a wasp. It's face looked like a butterfly's face, with a probiscus and those weird shaped eyes. It had six legs, but when it landed the wings didn't stop flapping. The wings themselves were short and I couldn't get a good look at them because they never stopped moving, but they could have been a different color than the rest of it. I think it's main color was black but I can't quite remember.
I ran inside to grab a jar to catch it, but it was gone when I came back. I remember researching bugs, butterflies, humming bird moths, beetles.... none of them matched what I saw. And if they came close, none of them ate dead things.
That's right. It eats dead things. Today, I saw it again. I didn't have my phone (a mistake I'll try not to make again. I need a picture of this thing.) I watched it scout out the best place to land, and when it finally did, it unfurled its probiscus and started drinking.
I had a jar this time... (I wanted to catch some American carrion beetles to pin) but I was kinda scared of it. When it saw me trying to catch it, it CAME TWARD ME and started loudly buzzing. When I backed off of it, it flew away.
I'll update with pictures if I ever manage to get some. But it could be a year before I ever see the thing again.

In regards to the rainbow stag beetles in my care
A while ago I noticed one of them has placed itself on the surface and seemingly died. It wasn't responsive and thats typically the behaviour of a dying grub. To go up on the surface and just lay there. I assume its to be picked up by a predator.
Initially I realised this happened when temperatures suddenly dropped and that they now needed extra heat. So they got a heatmat to stay consistently cozy. But I left the dying grub there. I dont like getting rid if grubs that have not yet turned dark brown or black (certain death)
It was still pale yellow/white even if unresponsive. So off it stays in its container.
In the past two days I noticed the heatmat timer started making weird noises and found it probably broke. So during replacing the timer today I checked up on the beetles and lo and behold....
Tumblr media
It has. Pupated.
Now if you don't know how beetles pupate, they usually construct a tough chamber using their spit from the soil around them. That chamber is rough and hard and perfectly safe and usually at the bottom of all the soil.
This guy.... Or... Gal.
This gal decided what use is a chamber to her?
She gave me a heart attack, she made me mourn. And now she is springing back from the dead like jesus with a middle finger to all usual signs of pupation and just. Pupated right there. On the surface. In broad daylight.
You know what good for her. Good for this girlboss- or guy with incredibly small horns. Godspeed to you.
I suppose we will check back in with her in a month. And see how shes doing with becoming an adult

Opinion on that really big fluffy past moth pokemon? (I forgot it’s name but past Volcarona)
Tumblr media
We heard from leaks that there was going to be two paradox Volcarona 'mons, which was exciting for me because Volcarona's one of my favorite moths in the series. While Iron Moth was underwhelming, I'm pretty pleased with Slither Wing here as a whole.
First, I just think the idea of a larvae-like form for Volcarona is neat. Some bugs do keep larvae forms as adults, including the female trilobite beetle (known as a larviform female):
Tumblr media
While there's nothing inherently prehistoric about this except for appearance, it does work well for a past paradox. It kind of invokes Larvesta but really looks nothing like it apart from still being a caterpillar, giving Slither Wing its own identity.
(Side note: Am I the only one who thinks that "slither" is a particularly weird way to describe a caterpillar's movement? Caterpillars more crawl, slithering is more how you'd describe a snake. But I digress.)
Tumblr media
Visually, I like how it plays off of Volcarona's design. It would've been easy to keep everything the same as Volcarona just as a caterpillar this time, but instead they had some fun changing up the elements in the design while keeping them recognizable. For example: the body fur is fluffier, the eyes are now yellow and have "eyeliner", the antennae are forked, the wings are now tipped with yellow and have green diamond accents instead of black ovals, etc.
Tumblr media
In all honestly, I think it actually looks better than Volcarona in some respects—and like I said earlier, I like Volcarona a lot. The yellows and greens really make the wings pop and give it some brilliant color, the yellow eyes feel like a more natural color choice than the blue of the original, and the palette is, for the most part, more coherent.
The only things in this design that I think were missteps were that, first off, the ovals on the wings matched the roundness of the body more and overall felt more natural than Slither Wing's diamonds. And secondly, it's hard to see in the above images, but it has a tail:
Tumblr media
This is possibly supposed to invoke Larvesta's brown segmented abdomen, and while I'm not sure how much it was needed, I'm not opposed to the idea; it's an interesting feature to put on a bug, and makes it look all the more wild and ancient.
The problem is the colors; making it that awful teal is a terrible choice, as it draws way too much attention to it and it muddies an already busy palette by introducing yet another color. This also makes it feel disconnected from the rest of the body. It would have been considerably better if it was black like its head and legs; it can keep the light green spikes to match the wings, or it can swap them for a yellow or red. Regardless, that's the only real misstep in an otherwise solid design.
Tumblr media
Also, not related to the design, but bug/fighting is kind of an odd choice for this one. It can rear up on its hind legs, but I can't really see it doing martial arts moves, you know? I've heard some people say bug/dragon, and while I wasn't sure about that at first, it does fit the more I think about it—it has a reptilian tail, walks on all fours, has wings on its back, and the antennae look like horns. This isn't a huge deal, but I figured it was worth mentioning.
So, overall, this is probably one of my personal favorite paradox Pokemon. I think the concept is very neat and looks appropriately prehistoric, yet it has its own unique design that honestly looks better than Volcarona's in many ways. The only misstep is making the tail a very garish color that isn't used anywhere else in the design—everything else is pretty great.

My dream is to have a huge spiky gothic style castle where I section it off and each section has wildly different over the top aesthetic decor than the one before it.
Like the first section, where you walk in is super normal, just average house decor, it’s a living room and some guest rooms, very normal, the only thing weird here is that the carpet is orange and the walls have floral wallpaper from the 50s. Then, you walk fown a hall and BAM. Everything is ocean themed.
There’s a huge mural on one wall that makes it look like your in a bubble window underwater with all sorts of fish.
A bubble machine and ocean sound machine are going at all times. Sometimes you hear “yellow submarine” by the beetles playing
theres a tv that shows live footage of a reef and there’s a big saltwater aquarium on another section.
All the creatures have names, some of the rocks even have names, there’s a key on the side with all the names and what kind of creature/rock it is.
My cool butler takes care of them, he’s paid very well and has like 90 paid vacation days, when he’s on vacation I take care of the fish, he reminds me sometimes over text, and then reminds me that looking at water is not the same as drinking it and that I need to stay hydrated, he also tells me things about his vacations, like which foods I should ask the chef to make, or learn to make myself, like I said he’s very cool, anyways, off topic,
The next section is COMPLETELY GOTH.
You’ve stepped out of the submarine and into the vampires cave.
There are little bats and spiders and cats and ravens and crows EVERYWHERE. ITS AWESOME.
I have a pet raven in a room, her name is Lenore, she likes to sit on my shoulder, I take her to other parts of the house sometimes, she’s very smart.
There’s also my pet tarantula fiddlesticks, fiddle for short, I take him out of his enclosure sometimes but he doesn’t leave the goth section.
Speaking of the goth section, everything is red purple blue white and black, mostly black.
There’s goth music playing at all times, there’s a ballroom that I use to host goth club nights, it’s a castle after all, there’s a big French door that leads directly to the ballroom from the garden. It’s very cool.
Just when you think you’ll never escape the darkness and ungodly amount of moon cycles on the wall, you see a light.. BAM MAGIC FOREST.
Everything is green and orangish brown.and pastel
There’s fairy lights EVERYWHERE.
I keep my pet ponies Shorty and Sprinkles and my guard llama Dude, in a large closed off pasture near the garden, they get lots of apples and sugar cubes and hay along with all the yummy grass they graze on, you cannot ride any of them because they are too small, but I play with them everyday and teach them tricks every once in a while.
Back inside there are plants everywhere
there’s sparkles everywhere
There are bean bags that look like rocks and a bookcase that looks like it was built into a fake tree
there’s a little snack bar with cupcakes and rock candies and brownies and carrot cakes and pies and water and fruit flavored sodas and fun pastries.
Chef makes the snacks, Chef is cool, he’s really strong, I pay him a lot of money and he also has 90 days paid vacation a year, he mostly texts me recipes to ask if I think I’d like them. Chef also likes weed, he never makes weed brownies on the clock though. He’s very responsible.
I hire college students from the college near by at $25 an hour to run the fairy snack bar.
I host lots of parties here, parents can call and ask to rent it out for fairy themed birthday parties in a real life castle, of course it’s only a section of the castle, but it’s still a castle.
there’s another French door entrance but the glass has floral stained glass, it’s professionally done, it’s very pretty
There’s a dressing room with lots of outfits and dresses and they all look magical and they come in many different sizes, they are all thoroughly washed properly after each use by my maid. She’s really cool, she knows how to do a lot of stuff. Like Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and race car driving, and knitting. She also gets paid very well and has 90 paid vacation days, I have a squish on her and she’s very inspiring, she teaches me the skills if I ask. She’s very cool. I text her pictures of things I make and she gives me encouragement. All my staff get along very well and it makes me happy. We have tea time and dinner together, it’s great.
And back to the fairy section there’s another ball room covered in fairy lights and plants, real and fake, there’s a DJ that takes all requests but otherwise plays music directly from ballroom scenes in fantasy movies and shows. He also gets paid well.
It’s very cool
I will add to this later but right now I do not have time

@damnedrainbows asked:
Lucifer has offered Alastor a bunch of trinkets from his fidget collection, that Alastor has to admit has been a bit beneficial. One hand of the King's can be seen fiddling its digits with this fidget cube while the other offers something to Niffty. If his stim toys have soothed the feral deer, maybe he can put some of her fidgeting into something.
"Here." Whats offered is a pendant with simple silicone black beads and a little silicone yellow beetle. Tough food grade silicone that even he has a hard time getting his choppers through. "You bite on it!"
Tumblr media
"You bite on it?" That caught Niffty's attention. She sits up from inside the piano after having chased.. something, in here, grabby hands seizing the pendant and stretching it out for her to examine more closely. The concept intrigued her, that's for sure. What a weird necklace!
Tumblr media
"Why?" A gasp. "Is it like one of those candy necklaces?!" She doesn't waste any time, she is chomping right into it and trying to tear off a piece!

Cutie and the Beast: Chapter 1
The sun rose on a quaint little town as morning came. As the villagers became to wake up, a small house's door opened as a young girl with red frizzy hair walked out of it, her hand carrying a small basket. She wears a blue and white dress with a white apron and black Mary-Janes. This girl was named Fanny and she lived with her single father who was an inventor. However, some people in town thought he was a lunatic and a madman and sure he was cranky and obnoxious he was anything but a lunatic. He loved his daughter with all his heart and Fanny encouraged him to continue his work.
Speaking of Fanny, she was a beautiful little girl but the townspeople thought she was a bit strange. Yes she was in fact pretty, she was the kind of girl who would rather read books all than than play with dolls or talk about boys. While the other girls were talking about who their crushes being their future husbands or which pretty dress they should get, Fanny had her nose in her book all day long. Fanny didn't care if the town thought she was odd or weird, she usually ignored them or yelled at them to shut it. She wasn't a pushover and had a temper, but other than that she was a nice and friendly girl who was headstrong at times.
Fanny walked around town as she saw people walking and doing their usual jobs such as making food and sweets, pulling carts, opening their stores, moving objects and more. Kids were playing with their toys or at the playground. Fanny walked past a bakery when she was greeted by a tall, blonde man in said bakery.
"Ah, Fanny! Good morning, dear!" The man said in an Australian accent.
"Good morning, Mr. Beetles!" Fanny replied in her thick Irish accent.
"Where ya off to?" Mr Beetles asked.
"The bookshop. I just finished the most wonderful story yet! It's about a beanstalk and an ogre and-!" Fanny said before she was interrupted by Mr. Beatles placing a tray of baked goods on the window.
"That's nice, dear. Evie! The muffins, hurry up!" Mr. Beetles said as he called out to his wife. Fanny huffed and shrugged her shoulders. She continued her walk to the bookstore. She finally arrived there and opened the door where the small bell above the door rang.
"Ah, hello Fanny!" Mrs. Thompson, the owner of bookstore, said as she welcomed her favorite customer.
"Good morning, Mrs. Thompson! I'm here to return the book I borrowed." Fanny said as she pulled out a book from her basket and handed it to her.
"Finished already? You just borrowed it three days ago." Ms. Thompson said as she took the book and giggled.
"I know, I know. I just couldn't put it down. It was so interesting! And you know that I'm a fast reader." Fanny replied as she looked through the shelves looking for a new book. "You got anything new?"
"Sorry dear, but not since yesterday." Ms. Thompson said as she shook her head.
"Oh, that's okay. I'll just borrow...this one!" Fanny picked out a yellow book from the shelf and handed it to Ms. Thompson.
"That one? But you read it twice!" Ms. Thompson said, astonished.
"Yeah, but it's my favorite! Far off places, daring sword fights, magic spells, a prince in disguise!" Fanny exclaimed as she twirled with a wide grin on her face. Ms. Thompson chuckled at her excitement. She always loved Fanny's love of books and her imagination.
"Well if you like it so much, it's yours. I insist." The brunette woman said, walking her out of her store and giving her the book.
"Really? Oh, thank you! Thank you very much, ma'am!" Fanny graciously said as she walked out of the store and began to read her book while taking a stroll. The people in town saw her reading and began to gossip about her as usual, but Fanny didn't care. She loved being sucked into the world of fiction in the books and hoped that one day, she'll have an exciting adventure like the characters in the books instead of just living a simple and boring life.
On the other side of town was an archery range. An arrow hit a painted red target. Two boys were in the archery range. An boy with orange hair wearing a red tunic, brown gloves, black pants and brown boots with gold buckles. He was holding an arrow and was the one who made the shot. Next to him was an overweight boy with black hair and wears a red vest with a brown coat and black shoes.
"Amazing shot as always, Bernard! You're the best, no, the greatest archer in the world!" The black-haired boy named Josh said to Bernard, the orange-haired boy, who was looking at his finely-manicured hands.
"I know." Bernard said with a smirk on his face.
"No one stands a chance against you! And no girl for that matter!" Josh said with a big grin on his face.
"It's true, Josh, and I've got my sights on that one!" Bernard said as he pointed to Fanny who was talking to some kids before burying her nose in a book.
"Wait, what? F-Fanny?! The inventor's daughter?" Josh exclaimed with a shocked expression.
"Of course! She's the one! The lucky girl who's going to be my girlfriend!" Bernard said with a dreamy look on his face.
"But she's-"
"The most beautiful girl in town, I know!"
"Yeah, but she's-"
"That makes her the best!" Bernard said. He dropped the bow and grabbed Josh by his coat, glaring at him. "And don't I deserve the best?" He growled, making Josh shiver in fear.
"Y-Yes! O-Of course you do! I-I mean you do!" Josh stuttered. Satisfied, Bernard dropped Josh and looked in his handheld mirror.
"Obviously! I mean, just look at me! I am the best!" Bernard smugly said. Bernard was the handsomest boy in town and excelled in lots of things. Everybody loved him and the boys in town were jealous of him. Of course, he had many admirers but the one he really wanted was Fanny. Fanny, however, couldn't stand him. He was such a narcissist and attention-seeker, not to mention he was obsessed with his looks 24/7. She hated people like him but he wouldn't take the hint and kept bugging her. He's always had a crush on her since Kindergarten and wouldn't stop until Fanny was his girlfriend and eventually future wife.
Fanny, still walking and reading her book, was stopped by Bernard who was smirking at her with Josh at his side, trying to look cool.
"Hello, Fanny." Bernard said with a smirk on his face. Fanny rolled her eyes. Not this again, she thought.
"Good morning, Bernard." She said, trying to be polite. Bernard snatched her book away from her, much to the shock and annoyance of Fanny. She was starting to lose her temper.
"Hey! Give me my book back!" Fanny said as she tried to grab it back from him. Bernard ignored her.
"Fanny, dear, how can you even read this? There's no pictures!" Bernard said, flipping through the pages.
Fanny crossed her arms and answered him with annoyance in her tone, "There's a thing called imagination. Heard of it?"
"Now, now, Fanny, I think it's time to stop reading to these books and start paying attention to more important things such as moi!" Bernard said pointing to himself. He threw the book on the ground.
"Grr! As if!" Fanny said as she picked up the book and dusted off the dirt on it. "You are positively primal, Bernard!"
"Why thank you!" Bernard said with a chuckle, not knowing that wasn't a comment much to Fanny's chagrin. "How about you and me go for a walk and see me shot some arrows? Maybe I'll hit something. I am a good hunter!"
"Ugh, no thanks." Fanny said in disgust. Behind Bernard were three girls: one with ginger hair and two with blonde hair. They were sighing romantically at Bernard and looked at Fanny with envy.
"What's wrong with her?" The ginger haired girl, Maddie, asked when she saw Fanny reject Bernard's offer.
"She's crazy to reject him! What does he even see in her?" The blonde haired girl, Jalen, asked with envy.
"He's gorgeous!" The other blonde haired girl, Mary-Lou, said with a lovesick sigh, focusing more on Bernard. The other girls also sighed and begin to swoon over him again.
"Look, Bernard, I can't. One, I don't like you and two, I have to go home and help my father. See ya!" Fanny said trying to leave until Josh laughed out loud.
"Oh you mean that crazy old loon? Yeah, that grumpy old man needs all the help he can get! He's not even a good inventor! Everything he makes literally blows up in his face!" Josh said, making both him and Bernard laugh. Fanny in anger pounded Josh on his head.
"Hey!" Josh said in pain.
"Don't you dare talk about my father that way, you stupid boy!" Fanny shouted.
"Yeah! Don't talk about her father that way!" Bernard said, trying to act all innocent and taking Fanny's side. He also pounded Josh on his head.
"Ouch!" Josh said rubbing his head. Fanny just rolled her eyes and knew that Bernard was just pretending to take her side.
"My father's not crazy! He's a genius and the best inventor ever!" Fanny said, defending her father. Just then, a loud explosion was heard from Fanny's house.
"Well, kinda." Fanny said nervously before rushing home to find out what happened and to help her father. She ignored the two idiots laughing their butts off and focused on helping the mess her father made this time.
(There we go! Chapter 1 of Cutie and the Beast! I gave characters who didn't have names on the show names such as Numbuh 19th Century who I named Bernard and Numbuh 50 Million B.C. who I named after his voice actor Josh Peck.)

I have escaped from the hospital after my first round of chemo for my lymphoma! Very glad to be back in the peace and quiet of my own home, with my family and pets around me. But the cancer ward I'm being treated on is a really nice one for teens and young adults that has great support resources and also a common area for patients where they have a little kitchen area, craft area, tv and games. So it's not been too bad all things considered and I've still been able to do some creative stuff while being in hospital. Here's all the stuff I've drawn and made while in hospital! Despite some treatment side effects, I've overall been feeling better than I did before i went to hospital, so I've been feeling more creative again. So I might actually end up being more active here for a bit at least!
[ID: Image 1 - A sketchbook page of little fine liner doodles. At the top is written "Idk what to draw. Weird times." The doodles are as follows: A spikey cartoon explosion shape. A simple oval creature with four little stick legs, dot eyes, and a little curl on its head. Two little smiling rain frogs. Wheatley from portal squinting. A smiling furry wolf wearing a collar. My fursona sitting in a hospital bed, wearing a hospital gown and oxygen mask, hooked up to an IV drip, giving a thumbs up. My fursona has a round cat-like face with freckle-like spots, big long stripey ears sticking out the sides of their head, little horns and long hair with the sides short.
Image 2 - a sketchbook page with two pencil doodles of my fursona. In both drawings they are wearing a nose cannula and pyjamas with a fluffy hoodie. The first drawing is a bust with them looking up and to the side, and the second is of them reclining with their hands behind their head and legs crossed, eyes closed with a little smile, looking relaxed.
Image 3 - a sketchbook page with a drawing of my fursona. My fursona is drawn in green felt tip from the hips up without clothes, with raised eyebrows, wide blank round eyes and no mouth, posed as though startled. Over the whole page, centred around their face and chest is a spikey cartoon explosion shape drawn in bright green highlighter.
Image 4 - a sketchbook page with a drawing of a cartoon moth person. They have a round white face with big shiny eyes, pink blush, big yellow feather-like antenna, and lots of purple fluff around their neck like a mane. They have four arms and two legs and are wearing a chunky pink and purple cardigan with a patch on one elbow, a short yellow skirt and purple boots. Their wings are white with purple cloud-like shapes and yellow spots and stars. At the bottom of the page is pink washi tape with clouds and hearts, and at the side is purple washi tape with silver moon and stars.
Image 5 - A cast resin ghost and pair of skull earrings. The ghost is orange at the top and black at the bottom, with a little bit of green glitter visible in it. The skull earrings are toxic sludge green with bits of gold leaf in them.
Image 6 - A work in progress beige drawstring bag with a moth, a beetle and an isopod drawn on it in dark blue. It would be symmetrical if the isopod was mirrored on the other side. End ID]

I may or may not have had a bandana obsession when I was younger. I used them for everything from hair tie, to napkin, to hand warmers, to bento box wrap, to packing padding etc. They were versatile.
Tumblr media
This one is my first. I wore it in grade school to hold back my hair because my bangs were long and I didn't know how to use Bobby pins. I brought this with me to a class trip to Frost Valley, it was the trip that cemented my love for natural history. It kept my head warm, my face warm and I bought this one at the lodge so I could wrap both my hands to keep them warm because I hated knitted gloves.
Tumblr media
I know there are more hidden in my childhood bedroom. Funny enough I can still tell you what main life event or task I used it for. Maybe...one day I'll get a big frame to display them all in. I didnt use this one often afterwards because it didnt really match my color palette but speaking of not matching. This monster came to me at my first real job. I needed something tactile to play with while bored at the counter and the colors were so blindingly bright I got it for the sheer mental stimulation.
Tumblr media
Then middle school hit and the blue bandana wasn't working for me anymore as a hair band so i switched to black. This was the year I started using it more often as a napkin and a wrap to hide things like emergency girl things because...period things. There's actually a yellow stain on it because I had a sudden nosebleed and the stain never came out.
Tumblr media
Then i went to college and being the good in line kid I was I wanted to have some weird college story of me being weird and wild so i joined the first campus game of Humans vs Zombies at my school. First year, they didn't have dedicated bandanas so I wore the blue one. The second year they had this and boy i loooooved trolling the human players with this bandana.
Tumblr media
Then I graduated and worked at a dead end lab job for 3 years. Then I decided to ditch the scene and go take on some conservation natural history environmental education internships. See first bandana. 3 internships later I had alot of memories, lots of out of comfort zone times, first time leaving home that is 5 hours away from home, a run in with a bear, learning I cannot eat north American raspberries but I can eat the invasive Asian raspberry, saw baby raccoons during the day and learning that adult raccoons with kits will be seen during the day, butterflies and moths are cool, wood beetles are destructive but damn do they make wild looking timber, building skills, develop a disdain for certain park goers, learn that as an Asians working in the Environmental field you dont get the same respect as your white peers and many people will perceive you as "the clean up staff" and not the research staff, I can drive a truck now, learning to build an outdoor snack kit so I don't pass out from dehydration and low blood sugar or low blood pressure, officially call myself a plant nerd, learn about teaching, tried gumbo for the first time, realize pizza and bagels do not taste the same in other states and understood the whole "new York pizza/bagel" thing finally, learned to bake bread, learned that skunks smell like burning chemicals, chickens are savages, bandanas make good lunch boxes and most importantly, that a wet bandana around the neck and head will keep you cool in scorching weather and reduce your chance of you passing out from heat exhaustion or heat stroke.
