But I wanna feel good too” you said, voice needy already. It was quite embarrassing the effect he so easily had on you, he barely even had to try.  “Oh of course princess, y’think I’d neglect my favorite toy? When have I ever left you without makin’ sure y’feel good mm?” He kissed the base your neck right at the top of your spine, spreading your thighs with his knee, your bodies flush together.

Early mornings with Carmy were your favorite. Well - the early mornings that he wasn’t jumping in the shower even before the sun had kissed the horizon. But these mornings. 

You woke up this morning at 4:52 - it was Sunday, your favorite day. Carmy & your day. The Bear was closed, the single day a week that it was - so it meant your loving, wonderful husband could stay in bed with you until 3 if he wanted.  

He’d told you many times before if you woke before him for some reason on your sacred together day, to wake him because he didn’t want to spend a moment without you - but for now, you watch. 

It wasn’t often you saw your beloved man like this, fully at peace. Well, other then when he fucked you - but while awake he never fully looked this peaceful. 

You carefully brushed his messy curls off of his forehead, dragging your nails across his scalp gently. You just couldn’t help it, you knew how much he loved it. 

‘Mmm?’ He grumbled, his voice thick and low, husky with sleep. 

“Sorry” you whispered, smiling a bit. You couldn’t help but think of a grizzly bear when he’d make noises like that. While he was in this half asleep - half awake state, he would grunt and huff and grumble, especially on Sundays. 

Just like any other day, his internal clock was on time - and today - he has 0 alarms set. 

“No ‘s fine been up” he said softly. 

You kissed his forehead tenderly, the faintest bit of mint sticking to his breath from last night when he brushed his teeth before practically crawling to bed since he was so exhausted. 

“Bear- it’s Sunday- go to sleep” you said, gently rubbing over his bare chest with your soft palm. 

“Damn birds” he grumbled, causing you to giggle. 

“Y’know it’s the boys, actually? Because the uh…the moms. They go out before the sun, to find breakfast. And the dads are - well. Scientists theorize - that the dads are calling the moms back to the nest, like an alarm the kids are up and hungry” you said softly. 

He hums in interest, rolling on his side with his eyes still closed and gently kissing down your neck as you spoke 

“All I heard was a really good reason we don’t have kids yet” he said, voice deep and thick with sleep. 

“Yeah yeah ok Mr ‘im gonna make you a mom’ “ you imitated his horny raspy voice and he chuckled, snaking his hand under your shirt and rubbing over your stomach gently 

“I am as soon as you take this fuckin thing outta y’r arm” he gently bites down on the inside of your bicep where your implant was, sucking gently, causing you to laugh. 

“I swear to god - your hormones Carm, it's like you’re ovulating or something” you teased and he snorts a laugh into your skin 

“Not my fault you make me horny in the morning” he reached up, palming your breast and squeezing gently 

“You were horny before you woke up fucker, I feel you” you teased, wiggling into his bulge that was pressing into your ass firmly. 

He moaned softly, rolling his hips into yours “Y’gonna help me out or do I have to go shower?” He teased with a grin. 

You roll your eyes playfully “gonna make me work before the sun is even fully in the sky?” You asked and he chuckled a bit 

“No. Just stay right like this. I can play with you, right?” He kissed your jaw gently, nipping at the sensitive part near your ear and soothing the sting with his tongue in a way that made you whine. 

“Yes. But I wanna feel good too” you said, voice needy already. It was quite embarrassing the effect he so easily had on you, he barely even had to try. 

“Oh of course princess, y’think I’d neglect my favorite toy? When have I ever left you without makin’ sure y’feel good mm?” He kissed the base your neck right at the top of your spine, spreading your thighs with his knee, your bodies flush together. 

“Well there was that one time-“ you teased as he pulled his cock out 

“Oh the one time I punished you f’r bein’ a brat.” He squeezed your hip and trailed his hand around your stomach, rubbing gently before dipping his fingers in your panties, finding your clit and humming in satisfaction when you whine hotly, arching into his frame further. 

“Cause you were wearing those slutty gray sweatpants and every bitch in the grocery store was staring at your dick print” you counter, causing him to chuckle, the vibration coursing through you since you were flush to him like one being.

“mmmm and is that why you’re so wet, cause you’re thinkin’ about me wearing something slutty?” He teased rubbing slow firm circles in the way that made you writhe and squirm. 

“Stop teasing before you nut all over my back” you smirk and he gasps, feigning offense. 

“Someone is mouthy this morning” he moved the fabric to the left, rubbing his thick cock over your folds easily with your slick aiding him, moaning softly. 

“Mmmm thank you” you rest your head back on his shoulder, eyes fluttering shut. “Feels soooo nice.” You mumble as he slowly rolls his hips, the head of his cock teasing your clit just enough. 

It wasn’t a full rub, not enough to make you cum for a while, but more a pleasant gentle massage. You felt his hand back on your stomach, rubbing short strokes up and down as he pants, in pure quiet bliss. That was something you adored about him-  whenever you were in public, he was shy, quiet. So quiet. But when you were alone together- the man didn’t have an off switch. 

Neither did you, but yours didn’t shut off in public, either. You did enough talking for the both of you, it was what drew him to you. The only time you made him more quiet, was when he was playing with you this way in the morning. You were pretty sure it was the time, his brain hadn’t fully woken yet - but he had one thought bouncing around like a DVD video logo his cock was achingly hard. 

“I’m probably gonna fall asleep but you’ll wake me right?” You asked and all you got in response was a breathy ‘mmhmm’ 

He gently bit down on your neck, then your shoulder, then your arm, causing you to giggle and look back at him as well as you could “you wanna suck on it. Don’t you.” You teased, referring to your implant. 

Another whiny ‘mmhmm’ and he rolls his hips a bit harder, causing you to moan as his tip ruts over your clit firmer 

“So sweet.” You smiled lazily, closing your eyes once more and humming “I love this Bear y’make me feel so good” you said softly and he whimpers 

“Fuckin’ hell y’too sweet. Lettin’ me play with you like this sweetheart, the sweetest girl” he praises, pushing the hair from your messy sleep off your forehead and kissing your temple. 

“Cus’ y’the best husband” you laced your fingers together and held your hands over your stomach. 

“Mmmm y’know I fuckin love hearin’ y’say that, right?” He rasps, hips getting sloppier and rougher as he got closer to his high. 

“I do every time I say my husband on the phone you blush. It's the cutest thing that you’re still feelin’ like we’re on our honeymoon 2 whole years later” you kissed his hand sweetly. 

“Cause I’m so fuckin’ lucky. Can’t fuckin’ believe y’agreed to take my last name babe. The way you say our last name is so fuckin pretty” he said, kissing your shoulder gently

“I feel so fancy with it. Mrs.Berzatto. Berzatto is so much cooler then my maiden name.” you said 

“Fuckin hell sweetheart im so close can I please cum in you?” He begged, his voice needy and wanting

“Of course Bear Y’don’t need to ask” you said and he released your hand, placing his palm at the base of your abdomen and slipping in, filling you to the hilt. 

You whimper, back arching slightly “mmm feel’so full” you mutter, gasping as he started a quick snap of his hips, jaw falling slack. 

“It’s so fuckin hot that I can feel myself fuck you” he pressed his palm firmer into your abdomen, angling himself in a way to both feel himself better, but also slide perfectly against your gspot 

“Yeah y’get so deep bear. Y’gonna fill me up? Y’gonna knock me up? Mmm?” You whine, your own orgasm approaching fast 

“Fuck yeah I am princess sh-iiit. Fuck gonna make y’a fuckin mom” he grunts, spreading your legs further and reaching down to rub your clit making you clench around him. 

He whimpers hips stuttering as he ruts into you, completely bottoming out trying to get as deep as he can as he empty’s his huge load into you, breathing hard and remaining still inside of you while he rubs your clit in quicker circles. 

He could tell you were on the edge because of the way you were clenching and unclenching around his now overstimulated cock, he wanted to get you there so he could remain inside of you for a while. 

“That’s it, my good girl. Thank you Angel, you took me so well. Y’can always handle whatever I give you it’s so fuckin hot.  Now I’m gonna make sure y’re all taken care of, mmm? Just like I promised” he said softly into the shell of your ear before kissing your head gently. 

“I’m cumming. I’m fucking cumming - oh- fuck-“ you whine, thighs shaking as some of your mixed arousal drips down his balls to his thigh. 

“Gooood. Tha’s it, good girl” he praised, slowing his fingers to a slow rub as he worked you down. 

“Mmm that was so nice Carmy” you hummed, looking back and kissing his lips lovingly. 

“So nice princess. Thank y’for letting me” he kissed the tip of your nose gently “can I stay in a little longer” he kissed your jaw gently 

“Course- I was actually gonna ask you to. I like falling asleep like this” you laced your fingers together holding your interlocked hands over your belly.  “Y’so fuckin perfect” he mumbled into the skin of your neck.

Goose Girl Retellings Rated by Geese (metaphorical geese that is)

because apparently I haven't made one??? spoilers for most of these books but nothing too detailed.

From the princess's perspective:

The Goose Girl by Shannon Hale

The most classic and straightforward adaptation that changes the least from the structure of the Grimm Brothers' version. This reads in many ways like a fairy tale and has a very whimsical style to it. I really enjoyed how her connection to birds was established when she was a child before she worked as a goose girl. The romance was sweet and I liked that her maid didn't use magic to steal her identity but rather had the guards' loyalty instead.

8 out of 10 geese

Thorn by Intisar Khanani

Initially, this was not one of my favorites as I read it near the start of all my goose girls but has actually stuck with me really well and engaged with the older version of the story in such an interesting way, so now is one of my favorites! I liked how identity was handled and the discomfort of living in a body other than your own. I liked how religion was incorporated. It was an important aspect of Thorn's character and not didactic in terms of ideology. I don't love the addition of the sorceress but the tension and relationship between Thorn and the handmaiden was really well done. A little too much going on, but definitely worth reading!

9 out of 10 geese

Bloodleaf by Crystal Smith

This adaptation read like a typical (but enjoyable) YA fantasy. There was a lot of romance in this one, which was nice but not very memorable. There was actually both a maid and a handmaiden who impersonated the princess for different reasons, which was cool, but there was very little focus on them. I really enjoyed how the handkerchief was adapted, it was one drop of blood from three different people who would all die before the princess (like her mother and her bodyguard).

6.5 out of 10 geese

Secret Princess by Melanie Cellier

Honestly, pretty standard YA fantasy retelling, nothing special but fun to read. Even less subversive than Bloodleaf. An annoying aspect is how this is part of a larger series so there were a lot of references to characters I didn't know. The maid's plot and reasoning for switching was really well done. I liked the romance enough. It was decent and cute.

5 out of 10 geese

The Noble Servant by Melanie Dickerson

So this is a Christian fiction book, and it was not subtle with the story's morals. It was like being hit over the head with morality. I read the beginning and skipped to the end after like 4 chapters. Unfortunately, the didactic nature of the book made me unable to enjoy any other aspects of the story. I liked the concept of the prince being in disguise as a lower class citizen/servant, but unfortunately, I was unable to appreciate the execution.

0 out of 10 geese

From the maid's perspective

Little Thieves by Margaret Owen

My favorite of all the retellings!! As a goose girl retelling, it is also awesome. I love that Vanja is a maid and emphasizes the issues of class and abuse of power. The inciting incident is revealed in a flashback and allows both Vanja and Giselle to be established as how this event has changed them before the reader sees it take place. I like that not only does the protagonist is changed from princess to maid, but the prince is changed to a villain as well. Vanja and Giselle also work really well as foil characters, with distinct character arcs. Vanja's reasoning for taking over is also easily understandable and the magic object that allows her to do so makes sense in allowing her. Also, interesting how many goose girl retellings exist as the first installment of a series, isn't it?

10 out of 10 geese

Identity by Camille Peters

I really enjoyed the idea of this but the execution did not take full advantage of the concept. I love that the princess forces the maid to take her place, making her the villian, although I didn't love the slut shaming the narrative put her through. I wish she had been more present as a character. Would have made the story more interesting. This is definitely more of a romance than the other books, although romance is often present. The magical artifact was not great and used poorly throughout. I thought identity was talked about a lot but ultimately, the maid didn't have to sacrifice her personality as much as she claimed it did. I would have focused on the dynamic between princess and maid more and made it a dual pov but alas. An interesting installment in my little journey, albeit unsatisfactory.

6 out of 10 geese

The Tale of the Handkerchief by Emma Donoghue

From a collection of short stories that are fairy tale adaptations, this story evoked a fairy tale feel. I like the switches without magic because I think it shows the power in privilege and position, and how regular lies can destroy lives. I also liked that the princess didn't want to come back, I liked how tedious the maid's position was as a princess. It was great commentary on class and royalty. A short read but a worthy installement in my journey.

7 out of 10 geese

Other perspectives

Stolen Legacy by Cathleen Townsend

This is a free novella I received for signing up to the author's newsletter and I did not do a wrap up or review of this one so I barely remember this one except Falada told it and I didn't really care for this version. According to the summary, Falada is a kelpie and the princess is a siren. . .It was not great.

2 out of 10 geese

The Goose Girl from Black Thorn, White Rose by Tim Wynne-Jones

The prince tells this story years later, after the events take place and he really cared about the maid. I believe it was implied or outright stated that the princess was attracted to women and the change between maid and princess was not forced. Interesting from a new perspective.

5 out of 10 geese

Falada: The Goose Girl's Horse from A Wolf at the Door by Nancy Farmer

Falada is the narrator and he is a fae horse who needs to complete a task in the human world to go back to the fae world. The maid is actually a fae who steals the princess' identity to help build her confidence. It was pretty short, interesting concept but not much happened.

4 out of 10 geese

The Grimrose Girls by Lauren Pohl

SPOILERS AHEAD but I actually hated this book, BUT I really liked how the goose girl was involved. The villain of the whole story (which was a boarding school of fairy tale characters) was the maid from the goose girl, except she was a modern day version AND she killed the "princess" to take over her life which is a great dark twist on an already dark story. Despite hating this book, I was very impressed with how the goose girl story was used in the story. It was the only good aspect of a very disappointing book.

2 out of 10 geese

Imposters

I was told these books were goose girl adaptations. I was lied to.

A Sorceress Comes to Call by T. Kingfisher

This was well written, enjoyable, and only Goose Girl in the aesthetics. As a book, I had a great time with it, great emotional turmoil and a light horror in this fairy tale inspired fantasy. However, as a Goose Girl retelling, there was no identity swap. And with no identity swap, unfortunately, this does not qualify as a Goose Girl retelling for me. There may be a horse named Falada and geese, which are always fun, and while there is an attempt to change social classes (the most Goose Girl aspect of this story), the fact that this is marketed as a retelling, is absolutely wrong.

3 out of 10 geese

Dearest by Althea Kontis

I was told this was Goose Girl. After reading a few chapters, this was proven to be more of a Six Swans retelling. I did not read it after this realization as it was super boring.

0 out of 10 geese

Goose Chase by Patrice Kindl

Same as Dearest, except the prose was actively awful.

0 out of 10 geese

The Goose Girl from Other Ever After by Melanie Gillman

Maybe this is because it was a short story, but I didn’t mind that this was called Goose Girl but was not anything like the story structure I expected. It was also in a anthology of other queer fairy tales, so my expectations of being a loyal adaptation were low. I liked that this was queer, I liked the comic format, I liked that the characters were portayed having dark skin. I loved the commentary on social class, a key question at the center of a good goose girl in my opinion. One of my two favorite short stories, despite being an In Name Only adaptation.

ISAT OCS: concept art dump and notes

Part 0 | Introductions | Concept Art Dump | Ornithomancy | Memes

-

i present to you: the archive of isat oc doodles, pieces, and various other visual media that i have amassed over the course of 6 months!

-

messy celest ref! fun note: she knows how to do traditional weaving techniques. her belt in my mind is a tablet weave, but i couldn't exactly get the texture right on scale. also don't look at the hands! i got tired!

-

haruka concept and the final design! she went though a couple of iterations, but this the one we settled on. you can see the clothes she's wearing under in her sprite comp as well.

-

Aega concepts! she is a Giant Woman; she stands at her 7'8''. her body is actually a porcelain ball jointed doll, made before the island nuke to use as a vessel for her within her shrine. her weapon was originally inspired by the bloodborne trick weapons, and could turn from the naginata to a scythe, but that ended up being scrapped because the design was kinda janky. also, she is heavily inspired by the twin sisters from Kubo and the two strings.

-

fuyumi concept art! she's haruka's mom– she doesn't show up until postcanon, but she's genuinely one of my favorite characters and her energy is delightful. she's a rock type but specializes as a rather formidable healer.

-

other expressions concept art! there are actually 4 in total; aquila (the eagle), monoceros (the qilin), ophiuchus (the turtle and snake), and draco (who is. obviously. a dragon. but i haven't designed him yet). they're heavily inspired by the four holy beasts from a piece of chinese classical literature. typically, the white tiger takes the place of the qilin, but some versions swap the two. these are essentially the divine beasts from breath of the wild, and they each have their own questline, associated party member, and dungeon accordingly. Himawari is connected to Aquila (DEEPLY and extremely lore relevant fact); Haruka to Ophiuchus (inspired by Asclepius, the greek god of medicine); Celest to Monoceros (the qilin is often compared to a unicorn in the west, though they're pretty distinct); and Ori with Draco (even though he's not pictured here, he's a traditional east asian dragon design and carries a massive pearl).

-

original fauna i made for worldbuilding and drawing practice.

the eagle is an Okibi Eagle, whose design is a pretty solid mix between a harpy eagle, the golden eagle, white-tailed eagle, and secretary bird. lore-wise, they were used as falconry birds by a few clans, but disappeared after the Island got nuked. Himawari's design is heavily inspired by them (well, vice-versa, but you get the picture).

the butterflies are actually an enemy; they're called Moonflies, and they're part of the stuff that happens once Aega's influence spreads. Their wing scales shed constantly, and when they're breathed in, they cause a potent anesthetic and hallucinogenic effect similar to what Aega's sleep does. They swarm together and, mechanic-wise, perform a similar service to what the Kings Tears do during his fight. Their coloration changes depending on the lunar phase they emerged during. Their design was a mix of the Aega morpho, japanese luna moth, lyretailed phoenix swallowtail, emerald swallowtail, and blue peacock swallowtail.

-

gem trees! they're a ka buan adaptation of favor trees; in the lore we've stated that the favor tree concept itself was an Islander tradition that has been so morphed into common life that most places where the Islanders had some impact has some variation of them. the design and function are extremely similar to shinto traditions of marking sacred trees inhabiting kami with shimenawa, as well as shinboku, trees where tags asking for blessings are left for a shrine's kami to fulfill. instead of tags, carved gemstones are used and hung from the branches of trees. some are natural, old-growth trees like camphor trees, but sometimes there are trees constructed with wire to act as a more stable and malleable version.

-

(himawari and aega belong to @dasnercaret; orion belongs to @scramblecat; haruka and fuyumi belong to @aquakirb)

rating things owned by nancy elizabeth wheeler

because she’s got a lot of little things. mostly they are very cute and strange little things.

starting off strong we have the prettiest tissue box in the world. 9/10, i think if i were sick it would make me feel better to have such a nice tissue box.

i’m fairly certain this is her diary beside it because her diary looks pink in the upside down version of her bedroom. so this is probably it? 11/10, i want to read it so bad. and very sweet pic with mom—7.5/10.

next up these pinstripe pants !! 10/10 i love them so much. oh and the index finger ring is there obviously, 8/10, such a consistent piece of her character.

a ribbon for being the bestest girl ever in the world. 10/10. also the card of cardinals: 6/10, probably just a christmas card or something rather than a symbol of her love for birds. but i still like it.

mr rabbit gets 11/10 for the name alone. and why does he look dead. i love him. he’s me.

descent from xanadu: QUITE LITERALLY 0/10. at first i was SO excited to cheer her on for reading a sex and drugs book at school but as it turns out? bizarre and gross. seems to go heavy on nonconsensual stuff. i snagged a free pdf and command f’d for whore and bitch. lots of results obviously (one use of c*ck crazy bitch…lovely). it seems men in this book say a lot of sexist stuff that the women pretend to hate but love which i can’t imagine is great for a teenage girl to consume. also just not sexy at all.

literally so bad, and this is not the worst of it.

sooo bad. the author was what 70 (??) writing that his female character got clinically DIAGNOSED with being a slut for every guy she comes in contact with. i know options for sexy literature were probably limited at this time but…please go check out something else. i wanna bonk her on the head with this book (paperback) and hug her. you don’t need to read this to be cool and sexually aware. moving on.

on the other side of that, the blondie calendar gives us a sense of the GOOD media she’s consuming!! a 10/10 no questions asked. we don't really get to see many of her hobbies or interests outside of investigation so this is a much appreciated detail.

of course like all good things in life the blondie calendar does get replaced. its replacement is what i will call Weird Antinaturalist Art Piece #1 seen in her room in s4. i give it a 4/10 because idk what’s going on really.

and here is a very crunchy screencap of Weird Antinaturalist Art Piece #2 from s4 which i will give a 5/10. note the boyfriend typical photography above it, for sure a 10/10.

there is also Weird Antinaturalist Art Piece #3 which gets an 8/10 because i like the composition and the piano player. where did she get this and why. interior decoration is her passion.

the sleeping bag and crochet pillow setup. 7/10. would take a cat nap here.

pluto!! 15/10, the best mickey mouse character i would say. i hope her cousin is taking good care of him.

bulletin board 10/10. i love how obvious it is that she has had this up for forever. probably a nice constant in her life.

and my favorite pic up there is this precious one. look at herrr. 5000/10.

her floral weekender bag. 6/10, i like it, but not as much as i like the speedwalk and the toss into the backseat. she was SO ready for her lab takedown road trip.

trapper keeper is a 9/10 because they probably put anything and everything on trapper keepers back in the day and yet still she chose this lovely understated hot air balloon. elegant.

tom cruise poster is 1000000/10 actually. she is so loyal to that man. actually though not a great pic of him all things considered so maybe i give it a 999999/10. (i love it so much because i know for a fact that jonathan byers works proactively to never acknowledge this poster, because he is more mature than that.) (he is not more mature than that, in fact he is a little pouty about mr cruise.)

KITTY FIGURINE. 10/10. i thought it was just in s4 but i found it on her other nightstand in s1. very very adorable. i imagine it is now one of the first things she sees in the morning (well that and her blue telephone: 8/10) which is bizarre and cute. the mixtape drawer gets a 10/10 for reasons that i don’t think i need to get into.

white fingerless gloves! 10/10. so chic for monster hunting.

black fingerless gloves from s4. hmmm 3/10, they're cool i guess but they don’t feel very nancy and the white ones are so much better. especially because you may get the splatter effect of monster blood on them in a battle scenario, which would be badass.

piggybank (with her name on the side). 2/10 unfortunately i don’t like him. he looks at me like i took out his whole pig village and i just need some quarters. also did she paint this herself? in that case, 3/10 for customization lol.

pastel underwear drawer: 10/10. her committment to the hollistic aesthetic and color palette of her room is impressive here. it was a good idea to use this drawer as a deterrence against her little brother and a money hiding place but clearly he has no manners and is a THIEF.

STRIPED SOCKS. 10/10. i realize it's hard to see because she's moving so fast (slow down he is not going anywhere) but they are indeed stripey even though i would have guessed solid white. and wow what good sleeping socks. stripes are just cozier. hope she got lots of sleep in those.

[petorahs]

I love your avenday posts!! Thank you so much for keeping us fed with your amazing art and hcs. What are your thoughts on canon Avenday? (Ps:- No one can convince me that aventurine wasn't enchanted by Sunday at first sight like literally "most beautiful man of Penacony" ok down bad much *delusional*)

oh hell yea anon anytime! AvenDay unexpectedly the hoyo ship of all time for me and make me sooo inspired, i'm not stopping anytime soon! B)

hm, not entirely sure what you mean by canon Avenday! :0 i try to stay canon compliant in all my hcs, characterizations and such actually. even in aHWS it was all a dream that Sunday thought Aven wanted. i guess i do make them fluffier in some settings with the assumption that they somehow got together, but thats just how shipping is :3

BUT if you mean present-avenday, then..... oh i do have Thoughts.

They both love this game, this waltz - the thrill of having a rival.

I think one of my favorite revelations in 2.7 was the fact that Sunday was in fact bluffing when he said he'd "kill" Aventurine. it was always pretty obvious since 2.1, and even more so in 2.2 (when we learnt of Sunday's true motive of creating a Sweet Dream paradise, and when Dan Heng said the Eternal Centurion assimilates people into the Harmony, the fact it's only used on the Antimatter Legion even if violent).

so by removing these stakes the playing field becomes.. a chess board. they're always trying to outsmart eachother. this never changes, even in Aventurine's team join voiceline for him it's like they're witnessing eachother's turns, which piece they're moving next, what the next plan is.

i think it's exhilarating for them, and for us as the viewers.

2. "Do you love your family more than yourself?" (TL: are you like me?)

a constant theme in avenday is how theyre birds of a feather. like think about it, they could have just switched Aventurine's mom in his flashback scenes and the message would still get across, but instead they gave him a sister. just like Sunday and his sister's relationship is a big focus. why is that, if not to further cement their parallels?

and why is it that Aventurine of all characters was mentioned in Sunday's character arc climax? in Penacony everyone is a foil to everyone (Acheron-Aventurine, Aventurine-Firefly, Sunday-Robin, Sunday-Mikhail, etc) but of all of them... it's Aventurine that was chosen to show Sunday's growth.

and it's also Sunday in 2.1 who kickstarted Aventurine's introspection on how long he's been surviving, how quick it is to let go (and just stay in the Eternal dream) (of course Aven rejects this, by embracing "Death" and by doing so his Life). they had an undeniable impact on eachother.

3. The future and its possibilities as vast as the cosmos

I think they should meet again, will meet again, and it will be glorious. Sunday still has beef with the IPC (someone's going to collect his 'debt'...) and Aventurine's still not done with Oswaldo stuff, nor is he a visitor in the Express. i'd say the chances are pretty high. and even if not........ I literally am swimming in the crumbs the game has given us with these two. they're so underrated man like the more you think about it the more they work so well together. i never want them to separate <3 I'll keep shipping these two until they reach a conclusion in their ongoing respective character arcs <3

How to get into birding with $0 budget

While birdwatching, also known as birding, can be a hobby that can get pretty expensive (equipment and traveling), you need nothing to start with. Some of my favorite things for it are actually free!

eBird

eBird is a website and mobile app that many people use to track what birds they've seen. You can even share lists to other birders you were with on a trip! The data, if you allow it, helps with science, which is really neat. They also have identification quizzes to help you learn your birds! Using photos and audio that people submit, it will present you with different birds (photo, audio, or both) with some options of what it is

Merlin

Merlin is an app made by the same people as eBird! What it does is help you identify birds. It can do this 3 ways. It can guide you through a step-by-step ID where you put in info about the bird and it helps you narrow it down, photo ID where you take a photo and it can tell you from there, and my personal favorite, audio ID! It records audio and tells you what birds there are just from that! With all of them, they aren't 100% accurate, but it sure helped me learn my birds! But the best part has to be that it links with eBird to add to your lists of what birds you've seen, but you don't need to link them, the app works fine on its own

Audubon Bird Guide

Yay, another free app! However I'm pretty sure this one only works in the United States, but there are likely others for other places. Like eBird, you can track what birds you've seen, but I use it because I prefer the step-by-step ID to Merlin's. That's it really

American Birding Podcast

Hosted by the American Birding Association (ABA) is the American Birding Podcast, basically just a podcast where they talk about birding. It can be a bit confusing to beginners though. Also, I haven't been able to find newer episodes on YouTube, but it should all be available wherever you listen to podcasts

Articles and Documentaries

This is a lot more vague, but there are a lot of nice free articles and documentaries out there! Audubon has some nice articles, including not just birds, but also controversies within the community like the racist background behind the most known figure in birding

Now all you need to do is just go outside! You don't even need binoculars, just your eyes and/or ears (there are blind birders who just use audio to ID birds). Even in urban environments, you can find some really neat birds! And if you want to get into photography, most phones have good cameras now

[chemos-factories]

saw you're wanting asks :3

tell us your most beloved small detail about fulgrim (or actually, anyone from your fics!) that you don't think everyone might know; could totally be a headcanon about a certain thing he likes or reacts to or likes to read! could be a favorite fabric! or could be a black library excerpt you don't think many have seen :0

also as an afterthought, no need to answer !! apologies im just on a bit of mushrooms so i cant quite stop myself from asking about him (lmao) so . literally any little silly thought you have about magnus, perhaps?

TWO BIRDS ONE STONE!!

In the au where because chemos and prospero are shockingly physically close, Magnus and Fulgrim meet before the emperor finds them (because chemos is looking for new trade partners now that they’re doing a little better, and prospero is right there)? In that au? Where they get married to secure the alliance between their planets, that au.

Fulgrim is certain that the conditions on chemos have made him infertile, so he’s like “yeah you can cum inside idc”

And then when he gets pregnant Magnus is like “holy shit… my dick performed a miracle!”

[misty--nights]

Episode 7 is another favorite. Also had to do another pause on the rewatch because it's been hard to focus on watching things. But, I'm back again and almost done so it's all good.

Honestly, the disheveled and covered in dirt look is really working for Esther. And then that plus the blood after she kills the Cat King? Damn

Do we know how the Cat King knows about Edwin’s time in hell? I feel like I’m missing something here, but I don’t remember how he finds out about it to tell Esther. My best guess is that one of the cats he sent to spy on the kids overheard something about it, but I’m not sure. I may be misremembering

The lightbulb in the closet scene starts going slower as Crystal and Charles begin talking quietly. I know it’s just losing momentum and probably not on purpose, but it does make a nice parallel to the way they lose steam in their discussion

Speaking of the closet scene, I think it’s hilarious that Crystal leaves it with a coat in hand. I can just imagine her angrily taking one down before storming out and Charles just awkwardly standing there until she opens the door. Hilarious image

The Night Nurse’s face at the beginning of the flashback seems all smug to me, like she really believes she won’t find a thing that could make her change her mind

Edwin actually does voices for the characters as he reads to Charles, he’s so precious. And his giggle as he finishes reading kills me. Do you think this is the first time after returning to hell that he’s gotten to be just a boy? To laugh and enjoy something after all the torment?

Maxine has a bunch of paper by her side on the stairs, and later we see her ripping some paper up when the boys are running towards the exit. Do you think those are her letters to Jenny / potentially other women she stalked if the head canon that she’s done that before is true?

Maybe it’s because the Doll House is super dark, but I actually never noticed that the thing that startles Edwin when he’s looking in the mirror is Despair’s face appearing out of nowhere

“I do not have my book” Do you think he freaked out when he realized he’d been taken without his notebook? That the one thing that could get him out of there had been left behind? Do you think he panicked about how long it would take him to find the way out this time?

Jenny sees David magically turn on the lights and basically teleport to Crystal’s side, and she still goes to try and get him to back up

Never noticed just how creepy the drawings for Esther's pain device are

The head of Esther's cane is a bird skull, so she and Monty both have that bird skull theming, which is find

You can hear Edwin's screams down the hall after the doll spider thing gets him again

I love that Charles not only packed a bomb and a molotov, he also packed them lit. Very efficient of him, though I do have to wonder if part of the bag's power is to keep things somewhat frozen in time so that the bombs don't explode in there

Also on the bomb scene, though, Edwin looks so baffled that Charles would throw a bomb at the doll spider demon

One of the people in the lust room is wearing socks and the idea of having socks drenched in blood is giving me sensory nightmares. 0/10 do not recommend. This point was originally going to be about the fact that poor Edwin has to go through lust barefoot, but I think that the socks are worse

The way Edwin screams for Charles when the lust people grab him feels really raw, but also like it's an instinct

God, Edwin's little smile after Charles says they have forever to figure it out kills me. There's so much relief and care in that smile and I just can't with it

[ghostsandfools]

Here’s a headcanon for all the algebraliens 0-16 because I am very bored ^_^

Zero has maladaptive daydreaming. Not all of their daydreams are about Fifteen though. They have a whole fake world within their head that they often drift into, with its own world building and everything. He feels embarrassed about his daydreams, so he hasn’t told anyone about them. Usually he’ll just lock himself in his room so he can dedicate time to more daydreaming.

One is very aware of her own and other’s emotions, which is why she’s so good at manipulating. Not only is she exceptionally good at reading others, but she’s also really good at psychoanalyzing herself. Like, if she’s gets sad or something she can automatically figure out why and then talk herself out of it. She’s very lawyerly.

Two has religious guilt about math. To the numbers, math isn’t just a subject taught in school, it shapes the entirety of their lives. Math has sort of religious connotations to them. I imagine math textbooks would be like their version of the Bible. Two is not good at math, and they don’t really enjoy it, but they feel a slight bit of guilt about it. Might give them an occasional existential crisis.

Three was originally locked up for a crime, but their sentence actually ended a long time ago. They aren’t “trapped in their cell,” they could leave if they wanted, but they just like it in there. (Kinda hard to come up with a good one for them honestly)

Four and One are siblings. Their shared parent is 2,763. This one may seem way out of left field, but I had a dream about it once and now I can’t get it out of my head.

If you want a better and more grounded Four headcanon, their singsongy voice helps them focus. Talking in one tone of voice for too long makes him lose his train of thought, so his tone will shift from high pitched to low pitched at random.

Five has an issue with literal thinking, so it might take him a minute to understand metaphors. This is especially an issue because he really likes reading, so he might have to reread pages a couple of times to actually understand what’s happening underneath all of the figurative language.

Six doesn’t really understand when they’re being mean. She truly, genuinely cares for her friends, but she can be kind of a bully and not even realize it. This can lead to issues, like when Five was scolding them and they didn’t even care because they thought it wasn’t that much of a big deal.

Seven has the exact opposite issue as Six. They can’t tell when people are being mean or insulting them. Obviously they aren’t a complete pushover, but it can take a while for them to realize that they’re being actively bullied.

Eight can’t focus in loud/overwhelming environments, which kind of sucks because the numbers usually hang out in one big and loud group. This is alluded to in the Book of Division, when the author writes “Eight’s favorite thing is when all of the other numbers are quiet,” but that book’s credibility is questionable. Anyways, this is why Eight usually spends time with one or two algebraliens at a time (Spending time alone with Two, hanging out in the clubhouse with Ten, etc.)

Nine is really sensitive to light. I don’t think I’m the first person to come up with this, but the reason she wears sunglasses is because being in bright environments is super overwhelming for him.

Ten can charm almost any animal. Like, he’s genuinely like a Disney princess. He’ll wake up and have birds at his window, and a butterfly will land on his nose, and bunny rabbits will help him tidy up his house. He can’t actually talk to animals, they just all really like him. He could literally cuddle with bears and tigers and stuff like its nothing.

Eleven…. Since Eleven hasn’t shown up, I’ll just assign them something random, idk. Eleven feels really uncomfortable when things aren’t symmetrical. They will go out of their way to take the same number of steps with each foot and stuff. If they hold something in one hand, they have to hold it in the other as well. If someone smacks their left arm, they have to get that person to smack their right arm too. If they don’t keep up this symmetry, they feel really uncomfortable and wrong for the rest of the day.

Twelve is a YAPPER, complete yapper. They will talk about things they like for hours and hours on end. I like to imagine that Twelve is like One’s secret sidekick, and they would definitely have like a yapper x listener dynamic with her. (Sorry this one isn’t very canon accurate, but Twelve has literally never talked before, so-)

Thirteen uh. Okay, they’ve also never been shown, so I’ll come up with something random for them. Honestly? Complete gremlin. Not outright evil, but they would go around causing havoc if they could. They like a bit of mischief here and there.

Fourteen has impulse control issues. When he was younger he actually cared about the others’ opinions of him, and he’d try to act like a normal number for a while, before eventually just giving up and becoming the strange little freak he is today. Still, he sometimes regrets his decision, wondering if things might be better if he never ‘let himself go.’

Fifteen only feels safe inside of her cabin. The thought of going outside scares them, which is why they’re so hostile towards the other numbers. She can’t leave the house without multiple weapons, and even then, she feels nervous and on edge the entire time she’s outside.

Sixteen hasn’t actually shown up for any of the shorts because they’ve been traveling across the world to different theme parks, trying to overcome their fear of rollercoasters. (Only Book of Division readers will fully understand this reference but idc)

AND THERE WE GO, a full page of headcanons for you all. Feel free to share your own… Actually please share your own, I feel so alone here >_<

[cruyuu]

I agree being a Sukuna fan is pretty hard since a lot of G fans are too toxic. I also feel bad for Gege since G fandom always downplay other characters and arcs Gege made for other characters

Reminds me of Homer with Poochie who wanted EVERYTHING to be about Poochie lol

Being a fan of any character in this fandom that isn't a popular one is an experience, anon, I'll tell you that. Finding people who are more open-minded towards discussing those less-talked about characters or that share your opinions is even harder, lol.

Still, this is the first fandom I've been in where I have a hard time connecting with it at all because man, this fandom really struggles with objectivity and being at peace with where the story currently is. I had to walk away from the bird app because of the way I was tired (and frustrated) about people continually making theories about a dead character's comeback with 0 evidence and being dismissive of the current plot. Like outside of Yuuji and Sukuna, Higuruma is also one of my favorite characters, and even though I don't talk about him much, I'm at peace when it comes to his death. I don't consider it a waste nor do I consider that he could've been more developed. I accept canon and the role he played in the story, because I realize he is just a side character and this is not a story about him. If I want to see a story about him, I could just write one.

I genuinely have no problem with people loving characters nor being insane over their faves (I do that too) but it becomes tiring when you're met with 487283737 posts of the same thing over and over and over again while looking for analyses related to the current going-ons in the plot. Like Gojo had been dead for some time to the narrative yet the fandom still refuses to let him rest even though he found peace in death and I find that ironic because they won't accept his actual characterization, paint the author as a hater (even tho he created him so that argument makes no sense) and believe they know him best, even better than the author. Do they? Are they truly his fans if they can't accept what canon is telling them or fans of a version of him which never existed in the first place? Like real fans accept the fact that he's dead and are not arguing everything in the story is about him. I know that because one of my friends loves him a lot (he's his #1) yet he doesn't belittle anyone, nor does he hate Sukuna and is still keeping up with the story. Normal fans do still exist, even though they are a rarity in this fandom.

I also feel bad for Gege because people are still hating on him simply because he doesn't do what is common in shonen works. If those people are dissatisfied with his writing, then why not just read a work which will satisfy their cravings or write a story they wish to read? Why not read Naruto, a classic shonen where nobody ever dies, everybody gets to shine and has about half a story dedicated to the side-characters and gives them development? It's everything they've been looking for in jjk, and yet they're still reading jjk, expecting it to deliver these tropes which exist in other shonen and then get disappointed when it doesn't. Just because it is marketed at such, it doesn't mean it'll be a copy or a ripoff, or for that matter, that it will follow certain rules or tropes applied to shonen. Every story has its own rules and deserves to be treated as such.

As somebody who had started reading jjk with 0 expectations, I am actually quite enjoying the wild ride that is jjk.

Dumb idea I have for a potential final sequal for the eight Parents AU

I have this scene stuck in my head, it basically explains the concept for the story i'd write AFTER Ruined Lullaby. But I haven't actually got the solution figured out yet.

DJ was worried, it was hard not to be. Roughly a week before the news had broken out. Son of Freddy had a mental break. They worried he was struggling with college, Sun, Moon and Foxy picking up on signs of his mental health deteriorating but Gregory always insisted he was fine. 

Then he fell asleep in class and when he was woken up he attacked his teacher as well as several students before running off with a teacher’s car. There was a man hunt for him, headed by the CEO of Fazbear’s himself.

There wasn’t anything they could do but do their jobs at the plex and hope he turns up. So that’s what they did. 

“ You alright man?” Monty asked DJ as he passed through the west arcade, now titled the spider’s den, for a party. 

“ Yeah,” DJ sighed, looking around, “ Just worried you know? I mean… what could have caused Gregory to break like that?” Monty stared at him for a long time, “ What?” DJ asked when the pause went on for too long.

“ Whose Gregory?” DJ stared at him, if his design allowed it his jaw would have hit the floor.

“ Whose Gregory?” He repeated, “ you fucking serious?” He rarely had his anger go from 0-10 like this so Monty was naturally surprised and backpedaling.

“ Oh is he like a regular in here you told me about before, I’m sorry man, I know how you get about your regulars. 

“ No, No he’s not one of- I mean I guess technically yes, but-”

“ Hey! My favorite non mammal based friends!” DJ turned to see Bonnie approaching, his ear twitching and his grin looking forced. 

“ I’m Chica you said that.” Monty snorted, crossing his arms, to which Bonnie raised an eyebrow.

“ What?”

“ Birds aren’t Mammals.” He said, “ I’d know, my boyfriend teaches kids this sort of thing,”

“ Ah! What ever, she knows I don’t know that, “ Bonnie waved the gator off dismissively, “ What’s going on over here?” He asked, Monty gestured to DJ.

“ DJ’s losing his shit because one of his regulars I guess went crazy,” DJ’s fists clenched at his sides. He liked Monty, he really did, but he was about ready to cave the gator’s face in. 

“ Oh yeah, I can see that, he gets so protective of them, you remember that one kid? Anyway, don't you have a part to get to?” Bonnie asked, Monty huffed.

“ Yeah, see you guys,” He turned and continued to the party room.

“ are you fucking kidding me right now, we’re just gonna-” 

“ Nah, shuttup.” Bonnie interrupted in a low voice, “ Don't say another word about it. Meet me after closing in the men's bathroom in Bonnie bowl.” he ordered, DJ blinked then slowly nodded.

“ Okay…” 

“ Okay!” Bonnie turned sharply, and headed to the elevator out to the atrium. Making DJ realize he’d run over here just to stop DJ from putting his foot in his mouth… but he didn’t understand how. 

After close he headed over to Bonnie bowl and entered the men’s bathroom, decked out in Bonnie decorations. Surprised to see Foxy already there, checking his nails. His new hooked hand comfortably resting on his crossed arm. Bonnie was leaning against the sinks.

“ We got two more,” Bonnie told him, “ Gotta be spaced when coming in here or else it will look super suspicious that a bunch of animatronics went into one of the company blind spots at once…” 

“ … This has to do with Gregory right?” Bonnie nodded.

“ Oh yeah-” A loud bang sounded from over head, then a pause, Bonnie’s ear twitch and then he snorted, “ I think he hit his head,” He told Foxy who scoffed, “ Cursing up a storm up there,” A vent cap swung open and Moon dropped down from it. 

“ Someone needs to clean in there regularly,” Moon complained, peeling cobwebs off his fabric parts. Foxy pushed himself off the wall.

“ Turn around let, ye got some on yer back,” Moon obeyed and Foxy started peeling cobwebs off him. ( Or spider webs since DJ was sure he saw the pirate pull a wolf spider off the jester and toss it aside before he noticed) 

“ Is Sun coming too?” DJ asked, and Moon shook his head.

“ Can’t, he had plans with Monty and if he canceled them to come here….”

“ right,” Bonnie sighed heavily, “ Well then, I’ll just open by saying:

You cannot talk about Gregory.” He told DJ who just blinked in confusion.

“ Why not? The kid has a serious problem and we’re just suppose to pretend he doesn’t exist?” He asked, Bonnie nodded.

“ Yes-”

“ What the fuck is wrong with you!” DJ raised his voice, “ We can’t just abandon him.”

“ No DJ,” Moon pressed, placing a hand on DJ’s arm in an attempt to calm him, “ We can’t talk about Gregory. As far as Staff is concerned we have no memory of him..”

“ … why?” He asked, turning back to the other two.

“ Monty wasn’t being an asshole, he actually has no idea who you’re talking about.” Bonnie told him, “ Gregory doesn’t exist in his memory banks.” 

“ What? You’re saying someone deleted Monty’s memories of Gregory.” DJ scoffed, shaking his head. The serious look he got made his code turn to ice though, “ Seriously?!” 

“ It’s not just Monty either,” Foxy told him, “ Freddy, Chica, Roxanne, if ye were to ask any of them about the lad they’d give ye dead eyes.” 

“ But don’t, cuz that’ll get us all in trouble.” Bonnie added quickly, “ See they started with the band, So I managed to catch wind of it before they got to me, and I was able to sneak in and delete their schedule to prevent the rest of us from getting our memories wiped… didn’t actually read the list which admittedly was dumb, so I had no idea who hadn’t been hit yet or not.

When Foxy mentioned Gregory I told him the situation. He passed the info onto the jesters and lo and behold, I passed the spider's den just in time to stop you from throwing us all under the bus!” Bonnie pointed at him, almost accusatory. 

“ I didn’t know!” DJ sputtered. “ Besides how does me remembering throw all of you under the bus?”

“ Because if you remember, they’ll realize they missed some of us, cue a combing of our memory banks, finding evidence of Gregory, and delete.” Bonnie explained.

“ Why are they doing this?” DJ asked, Moon frowned and crossed his arms.

“ Well… oddly convenient isn’t it?” Foxy said, “ Son of Freddy is no longer cute, he’s an adult, he has a mental episode that will make the public dislike him, when they catch him he’ll either go to jail or a mental institution…..” Foxy counted off his fingers, “ then just disappear,”

“ you’re saying they are taking advantage of his mental health to shut down the Son of Freddy campaign?” DJ asked, and Moon gave a heavy sigh.

“ Worst… we think they orchestrated it.” the jester explained, “ We’re not sure how but … they were weirdly prepared for him to snap. They had a statement ready to go, they had a contingency plan in affect. We think this is a two birds one stone thing.”

“ What’s the second bird?” DJ asked.

“ Well… you know how Gregory, Cassie and Cody have been speaking out about how sentient we are and how we deserve equal rights? Man, convince the public that the guy spearheading it lost his mind because he was raised by robots and….” DJ Started to feel angry again.

“ That’s… such bullshit!” 

“ Aye,” Foxy agreed.

“ What do we do about it?” DJ asked, turning to Bonnie who shrugged.

“ I don’t know yet, I wish I could say I figured this out, but I only figured it out by over hearing some tech complain about how complicated digging through our memory banks is now that we all have that filtering program Jackson gave us. And Hey, now we know why he was let go again, because you know he wouldn’t agree to this shit.” 

“ Why didn't he warn us?” DJ asked.

“ I dunno, maybe he did, I did see him talking to Freddy before he left but …. Look we’ll figure something out, but for now. Gregory? Never existed. If you hear anything about Gregory, find me, and tell me at your lowest Volume. Do not ping anythone, or use a network call, those are practically recorded. The only way they know this conversation happens is if someone screws up and they comb through our memory banks.

 Which, again, they don’t want to do because it’s hard, so we have to really screw up for them to do that.”

“ Got it.” DJ agreed, Moon took his hand and squeezed it, no doubt worried and a little scared but there wasn’t anything they could do right now. 

DJ played his part for the next few days, even apologising to Monty for his anger. Keeping his concern to himself, with no word of Gregory other than news reports he wasn’t allowed to seem too interested in. 

One day it happened out of the corner of his eye. He saw a figure move through the arcade, and turned his head intime to see a shadow disappear into a tunnel in the wall. Meant for when he was in his bigger body. 

He froze, staring into it. If he had a heart it’d be hammering in his chest. He wanted to check, but knew he shouldn’t. Knew that he likely had a program that would force him to report seeing Gregory. He moved slowly to the tunnel absently, a hand finding the lip of the ring. Then against every code in his program, he walked away. 

Turning instead to an arcade cabinet. He beat the highscore easily then set the name to:

DJM-  A game Gregory and him used to play whenever he was home during the day. They’d pick one cabinet and just go back and forth with hiscores.  DJ hoped it was subtle  enough that no one else would notice it. 

DJ checked the cabinet every hour after that. Only to find no change. Maybe he’d been hallucinating? Maybe it was a glitch? He felt a little disappointed but shrugged it off as he charged for the night. The next morning however he did his rounds and stopped to do a double take at the very cabinet he’d made a half hearted attempt to contact Gregory.

GGY

DJM

DJ felt his coded heart leap and he hurried to the cabinet. Beating the game and leaving his own name to let Gregory know he saw the message, then hurried off to Bonnie bowl.

He paused next to the bunny while he greeted guests,  making sure his volume was at his lowest setting.

“ I found Gregory. He’s in my tunnels.” He saw Bonnie’s ear twitch, but other than that. No indication that He’d been heard. He didn’t dare repeat it though, mingling with Bonnie’s guest before the bunny joking tossed him out for hogging the attention. He made sure to pass through a gift shop as he passed, quietly snagging some plunderbars, and a Freddy flavored FizzyFaz. 

When he returned to his arcade he found a tunnel that was in a more secluded area, setting the plunderbars and soda down before knocking rhythmically on the wall. He should see if he can get Soundbyte to hang around the arcade, it would be easier. But this would have to do for now. 

An hour later the snack was gone.

I wrote a Whole Response to this ask and then I was like oh I wanna browse clown tumblr a bit so I went to save it as a draft and TUMBLR made it come up RED and deleted my whoole thing. So the ask box and the drafts on the blog get eaten up into tumblr’s bottomless gullet. Save me, friends :0( [sad honking noises]

BUT!! Thank you so so much for the ask anon, I got so excited!! :03

You all know parties, pierrot, and scares, but HERE are some clown breeds for YOU that you might not have known about!! (Maybe some of my personal favs hehe)

Porcelains are a favorite of mine- maybe because I care for one myself!!! I’ve seen a lot of pictures of them on my dash, but no one really talking about the breed itself. I think it’s pretty important to do so since they’re not a beginner breed, mostly due to their fragility. They’re very prone to cracking :,0( They evolved from clayface clowns, and their porcelain skin was believe to have been evolved to protect them, like a bird’s egg would- so it’s very good at evenly distributing force, but certain things can cause it to crack.

They enjoy the finer things in life- frills and shiny objects, pastries and sweets- Pinkee has been particularly fond of tea parties recently…. <3 They’re usually very small and dainty little things!! They’re also commonly mixed with other clown breeds such as parties or Pierrot!! Pinkee says hello!!

Rodeos are a breed of clown that I don’t think gets enough love, especially because they’re so so interesting!! Not many people care for them in the home- which I understand, since it’s a bit difficult to reproduce their natural environment. They’re used to warmth, having originated from the desert, and you know.., bull fights are a little difficult to just whip out in your backyard. They’re a very daring, energetic, and charming breed though! Some of my favs <3

Acrobats!!! Ough!! /pos!! They’re definitely not a breed I see on tumblr a lot, in comparison to their working human counterparts for which they were named. Different varieties/subspecies have popped up all over the globe, which I think is really cool!! They tend to parallel the humans performing the tricks they love :)) which I think is really sweet.. <3 They require a looooot of space, which is why they’re not as common domestically- they need room and equipment to swing and leap around. Their unique behaviors are what make them some of my favorites!!

Jesters have been making a comeback, as evident from my little friend Pinkee. They’re a living underdog story, really! They originate from the court jester, which was a breed that was believed to have gone extinct by the 21st century, due to the loss of their habitat and the way they evolved into different modern breeds of clown. But following the discovery of an isolated colony, clown husbandry enthusiasts worldwide have been working to spread this newer, more modern form of this breed that is more reminiscent of the court jester!! Court jesters themselves are very interesting to me, I always have some hope they’re not actually extinct,,

Teddies are, well- very similar to teddy bears, and come in a lot of different aesthetic varieties!! Usually very frilly and fluffy <33 They’re very good with kids and are overall just an extremely pleasant breed and wonderful for families! Very low maintenance as well- though they still need love and attention just like any other clown!!! They’re super common- sometimes you’ll see a teddy and you might not even know it’s a living clown, which has spooked me at the shelter,,,,,,,,Many Times,,,,,,,, I love them dearly though, they’re such cute little things! They love pastries and fluffier foods like cotton candy!

And those are some of my favs/breeds I think deserve more love!!!!! I can write up some more if you need, I was just very excited to write abt these guys!!!

Sending love! Please update us on that master post if you can!

[sugar-grigri]

feel free to ignore this ask but i'm curious as to what your url means :0 - seal anon 🦭

hello seal anon!! i can answer that even if the meaning is not very deep

sugar_grigri refers to one of my favorite characters Griffith

A character I like to make fun of and whom I call Grigri, which is a little lucky charm in French (it also sounds like a nickname you'd give to a bird).

Why "sugar"... it doesn't go very far = sugar_daddy... sugar_grigri

Actually I had to find a new nickname quickly when I decided to change my Twitter account and it never went away lol
