To me, a character's physical body is an essential part of who they are and informs the way they behave in their world. I see it that way because that's how it is for most folks irl I'm sure. So for that reason I consider removing that aspect of a character and replacing it with, say, a white man with blue eyes and light colored hair with a slim to average build, to be reductive of the interpretation of the character. There's no harm in it, but if for whatever reason be it romance or just for fun you feel the need to remove parts of what makes the character their own character and not add or iterate upon it to put them in a coffee shop, it may be time to just start doing your own thing. That's my opinion anyway. But I'm biased because I've always disliked taking the inhuman especially if allegorical and making it human for the sake of making something palatable or digestible (I'm an autistic trans woman for what it's worth.) It seems more often than not it's because the person doing so is unable to reconcile with or fundamentally misunderstands the essentials of the character. If you can accept the concept of a sapient non human creature having ordinary thoughts and feelings but not accept that their choice in partner in this fantastical world is a standard humanoid, i think you might be missing the point of the character being non human in the first place. Also yes boo I hate fun and I hate everything you love im sure feel free to throw eggs at me about it

A Little Pyromancy on this Fine Spring Night 🔥

@lunammoon :I think Ezra reaches into their pockets, pulls out a small sprig of mint (a stem about four inches long with about 10 or so leaves) and tosses it into the flames.

As the sprig hits the flame a plume of smoke begins to rise up from the green leaves, snaking its way into the air. The mint begins to wrinkle and then shrivels before bursting into a bright flash of fire. The striking pop it omits makes Lisel jump slightly.

“Do you always keep mint in your pockets?” Lisel asks after a moment, but shakes her head as if remembering why they were there in the first place. She smiles “Better than grave dirt…” she trails off, pressing her face forward to take in the heat of the fire. Her face became serene, then eerily blank.

She takes in a breath of the smoke and notes the faint green scent. She shifts, curling her fingers softly.

“You have to tell yourself there’s a line, because if a line exists then you can’t cross it?” Her voice raised into a question, as if not quite able to articulate what she was feeling. “No, they told you there was a line. A limit, everything is fine if there’s a limit.”

“Your fingertips used to ache… pricking them over and over. Red circles stained into your staff, bloody fingerprints on the sleeves of your robes... why did nobody question why they were there?”

“And now they've healed so many times that you barely notice the pain. Not for a while, not until it trickles onto your palm.. .” Liselath casts her head to the side, her eyes shut in a slight wince.

She sighs and purses her lips, losing the connection as the mint sprig shrunk into a sticky black smudge on the coals.

Lisel took an almost irritated breath, disappointed she couldn’t say more.

“That really hurts.” She says bluntly, although her tone indicates no sense of judgment, “I can’t believe you can stand it.” She cocks her head to the side, “Did you know the pain makes you so hard to read? Sorry, either way.”

After a few moments she gives a nervous laugh and a shrug after rising to her feet and slowly walking towards the opposite set of stairs.

“I guess I warned you it’d be quick.” She calls over her shoulder.

Out for a stroll.

(Death staring squirrels, splashing around, shredding sticks, rolling in things, etc.)

Never did understand when people say cats have a very specific taste of cat food they want

Every cat I've had/have fed, which is about 8 or 7, hasn't cared one bit

To be fair, I've only had the housecats that you get from shelters or other people. I've never bought a cat from anyone. Even Smokey, had him for about a decade, we got him from one of my moms friend, never wanted a specific cat food or anything

Don't know if someone already noticed that, but when fighting Tenna, there is a chance he would say something like "Is it me, or does it smell like an orchard in here?" (hope I will be able to find a screenshot)

Upd: found it!

Here's an explanation!!

A "sweet" or "orchard-like" smell coming from an old CRT television likely indicates a problem with the internal components, possibly related to a failing capacitor or other part that is overheating or breaking down. It's important to unplug the TV immediately to prevent further damage or potential fire hazards. 

Upd: Yeah, now that I know that there are three versions of this quote (orchard, plush and smokey scents) it's probably a reference to Kris, Ralsei and Susie, it's still pretty interesting

Rock hounding! Collecting rocks :D

This weekend coming up my mom is going to a like... event kinda camping thing, and she's set to go up and talk about rocks and stuff, plus the kids that go there love to go and learn about rocks at her setup, so we were collecting different kinds of quartz for those kids to be able to take home and keep :]

It helped with my ankle alot and I have regained almost the full range of motion and I can kind of walk like a normal person now, just limping slightly.

You may have some rock pictures, for your time :]

I can't remember which book it's from but I remember at one point it being said that moomins can't sing, and yet if I remember correctly the first song moomintroll sings in the 2019 series is to a horse and about how bad he wants her

“Kaiju” is also a Japanese term, so not only are a lot of people in the fandom calling it by the wrong name, but also prescribing it to the wrong culture entirely.

⚠️ I am not chinese, so if any chinese person in the fandom wants to add something or just point out any mistake, please do ⚠️

I've seen people in the fandom call Macaque's smoke monster 'kaiju', but this is not a correct denomination.

It is better to call it "法相" (fa3 xiang4), meaning "image of (commonly Buddha)"

"佛教术语，指诸法之相状，包含体相（本质）与义相（意义）二者"

Trans.

"A Buddhist term that refers to the appearance of all dharmas, including both physical appearance (essence) and righteousness (significance)"

Following this definition, a 法相 is your true self, your essence, both physical and spiritual... meaning that Smokey (little guy) is not a 'kaiju'. It is an essence, Macaque's.

Same goes to all manifestations of characters who have a version of their 法相, it's their true essence.

Yes, you got it right! This little (not so little) guy is also a 法相.

(Don't call them 'kaiju', please).

Just to add, they can also be called 'war forms', since they appear in the original jttw.
