#snail update

[fanaticsnail]

Pertaining to Sapsorrow, will we ever get to see the sun dress *ahem* in action?

The moon must rise before the sun shines above the horizon.

The next chapter of Sapsorrow is the dance of courtship between Mihawk and his governess, courtesy of the Clown adhering to the traditions of Kuraigana. Mihawk never got the opportunity to woo his bride, and now he must in order to win her favour. Thanks, Clown.

The following chapter will be the tying and untying of the sensual sundress: tied by a blindfolded Benn Beckman, and hopefully untied by Mihawk - if there's no complications that has him losing all composure and cut the damn thing off.

But rest assured, dear anon. More is to come for this tale.

(I have been swamped a little in my personal life, and I want to make sure it's perfect before posting! It is coming, I promise 🖤)

Something I miss about writing on Wattpad is when my writer mutuals would add my OCs (original characters) as side characters in their fics. It was always so fun, especially when their readers liked my character.

Oh hey, the rest of the snats/slats (snailcats/slugcats)! These guys are sgraffito'd with some celadon glazes slapped on top for a jewel-like & slightly slimy effect!

Also, I've started to upload previews to my shop (heywitch dot bigcartel dot com) & am going to be opening it up next week...I'll decide on a date/time tomorrow & announce it as soon as I've made up my dang mind!

You're laughing. I lost my house betting on the bug race and you're laughing.

With the new Clangen update i'd just like to quickly clarify that upcoming moons (up to moon 34, to be exact) will not be influenced by any of the game's updates, as they have already been planned out

[plaguedocboi]

I’m starting my new job tomorrow so be ready for clownfish posting

BUGS BUGS BUGS! But the good kind.

Alrighty, let’s go through all the mobs and their features! Left to right, top to bottom, image one through image two. Since this’ll take FOREVER, use the read more! Look forward to a part two focusing on even more bugs!

SNAIL

Snails spawn in forests and swamps. Snails leave a harvestable trail of slime that can be affected by their food- make it bouncy (by feeding them blueberries), fast (raspberries) or honeyed (honey bottle). Snails come in various shades of browns, grays, greens and ruddy berry colors.

GIANT WATER BUG

Spawning in the beaches (any body of water, really), water bugs are defensive and will attack if you get close. When tamed by obtaining their eggs, water bugs make for good guard dogs- they can be commanded to stay, follow, wander, and by shift-clicking- set to neutral, passive or aggressive. GWBs come in shades of browns and blacks.

SLUG

Slugs spawn in jungles, and leave behind trails that can be used to make redstone components with upgraded signal strength. They come in shades influenced by real-life slugs- pictured is the rare banana slug.

MEALYBUG

Ah, mealybugs, the bane of any farmer. Spawning on crops, mealies eat and suck at crops until they’re sated. However, if you’ve befriended any ants, these bugs become a source of hearty honeydew, which when bottled makes for an incredible food source. Mealybugs only have one color- a dusty, pale white.

FLY

Flies spawn around carrion blocks, buzzing around and being general nuisances. Flies can be tamed by feeding them rotten flesh, and can swarm around attackers on command, descending down from the heavens to make enemies’ lives living hell. Keep an eye out for the rare tsetse and horse flies, larger and more dangerous breeds. Flies have two variants- brown and dark grey.

LIGHTNING BUG / FIREFLY

During the nighttime, look out for fireflies in the distance (since they only spawn during the night). Fireflies can be bottled and tamed with fruits, and can be placed down for a light show. Non-entity fireflies spawn around Naturality’s frog species and certain grasses, if you want the two-pixel variation. Fireflies can be dyed both as entities and as bottles, and dyeing them colors their lights. Fireflies come in a few different variants, all based on real-life species.

COCKROACH

Cockroaches spawn in Naturality’s new caves (the limestone cave and the sunken jungle) as well as in the new beach grottos. Cockroaches can be used as clean-up-crews, consuming detritus and fertilizing farms as they make their way around. Smaller cockroaches have a tendency to swarm players just like flies, and all cockroaches can be tamed. Cockroaches come in a horde of variants based on real roaches, like B. giganteus (giant cave), B. dubia, M. longipennis and B. germanica (German).

MAGGOT

Maggots are the larvae of flies, found in carcasses. They can be itemized and used to tame other creatures, if you’re a monster.

DRAGONFLY

Dragonflies spawn around bodies of water, attacking other insects to eat their fill. They can be tamed and their wings used to upgrade elytras. Dragonflies also can be used as the poor man’s elytra- allowing you to hover and slow-fall. Dragonflies come in some green and blue colors, and one iridescent one.

APHID

Another crop-destroyer, make a farm and the aphids will come. Unlike mealies, they can’t be harvested, only itemized or used in fiber and wood farms after being tamed with offerings of plants. Aphids have one variant- green.

ISOPOD

Isopods spawn in forests, and are used to culture molds and other fungi. They’re basically crustacean puppies. Also see my prior isopost for more colors. Pictured is the rubber duckie variant- the true amount of isos is a secret :)

BUTTERFLY

Butterflies spawn nearly everywhere during the day, and during the night are replaced with moths. Butterflies are basically bees, only instead of honey, they’re used to obtain nectar, which functions as natural potions that give different effects depending on what flowers they come from. Moths, on the other hand, work as glares- they dislike darkness and will point it out if given some nectar as a treat. Butterflies come in a horde of variants.

LADYBEETLE / LADYBUG

Ladybugs and other beetles of their ilk spawn in the plains, and are useful for their shells- which can be made into tough armors. Ladybugs suck at crops, and if tamed will trawl through your fields, picking only the good bits out.

GIANT ISOPOD

Giant isos spawn in the deep seas, and make a living cultivating mosses in the depths. Perhaps you could gain their trust and use them for your own good? The ways of these depth-dwellers are a mystery. They come in three variants- light, dark and pink.

Congrats! You made it down here. Have a cookie 🍪

Glimpse into my life: Paging Doctor Chopper

Art link

Hey everyone, Snail here! I spoke a while ago about chef-husband having a small accident at work and then gave a little tag update about selecting a one-piece doctor.

Trigger Warning, injury discussion below the cut.

On the 29th of Jan, chef-husband had a fall at work. He took his apprentices/students to an inflatable water park, overshot his landing on one of the ramps, and dislocated his shoulder. Upon getting out of the water and setting it back in, he broke his shoulder completely.

He's been off work for 7 weeks so far, recovering as best he can while in a sling, and managing the pain while awaiting further x-rays. He got an MRI yesterday, and the damage is worse than we initially thought.

Chef-husband has debris in the joint, the socket has a large tear in the cartilage. One of the main tendons is 50% torn, the broken bone is a little displaced, other small tendon, a build up of fluid, and some muscle damage.

The likely scenario from here is for him to get an Arthur-scope to clean out the debris, whereas the worst case scenario is full on surgery where they open him up and assess the damage and go from there.

So far, all we do is wait and hope for the best!

Doctor Chopper would be my first choice for a quick fix for him, but it would be fun to ask Franky or Kid to make him some chef-style attachments: brulee torch, meat cleaver, bone saw just to name a few! Maybe some tongs for him to do a quick 'click, click' at the bbq.

Thanks for reading 🖤!!

The Reef and the Deep

For @buginateacup's fic Haute Water, in which the trio goes to the Met Gala in Minion's designs. These were so much fun! I learned a lot!

Image descriptions: Roxanne and Minion and Megamind in extremely fancy outfits.

Roxanne's dress is cut sharply up the thigh and looks like a wave rolling in - sleeveless, strapless, it has a bustled train of tulle scattered with seed pearls and a waist gather with a seashell and corals. The top of the bodice also has the same seafoam tulle, which wraps around Roxanne's arms. She is wearing a necklace and crown of coral and has iridescent blue highlights on her face. She is holding Minion aloft in a net of pearls. Minion looks extremely pleased with himself and is wearing pink eyeshadow.

Megamind is wearing ink-black and very sharp fins on his ears, a net of black pearls on his head. He has spines of very dark blue rising from his shoulders and arms, and similar spines falling in a narrow overskirt from his waist. He has lionfish-fin spines framing the sides of his cape, which is very dark blue inside and black outside. He has no shirt, but is wearing fishnet sleeves with scattered black pearls, and black armor on the backs of his hands and fingers. His boots are laced all the way up his thighs.

Both are on a pinkish-lavender background with a faded splash effect behind them.

[Start ID: Drawing of HLVRAI Benrey enjoying the chin strap on his new security guard helmet. He prods at the chin guard, happy green sweet voice trailing out of his mouth as he comments: "aw yoooo dude whatthefuck i feel good as hell."

This is followed by another drawing of a very thrilled Benrey running around in circles with the new chin strap helmet on, green sweet voice orbs floating around him. Gordon watches him from a distance. He laughs: "You like that, man?" /End ID.]
