A snow day! Another one?!

This one happened fast! They were predicting some winter weather, but I don’t think they quite expected this! We woke up to the ground covered in a few inches of white and it was still coming down. I got out of bed, fed the pups, PSM advised me not to take them for a walk, the road outside our front door was not plowed and the roads were wet, slippery, and could be dangerous, and for the quarter…

Jon Snow, the man who thought burning a man alive was so utterly cruel and inhumane, very publically defied a Kings orders in front of him, and everyone else in attendance, by showing Mance Rayder mercy and shooting an arrow into his heart before the fire could start to engulf him.

Yes I understand why he'd side with miss "I literally dream about my enemies dying screaming as I burn them alive on mass".

Totally justified, the man whose uncle and grandfather were also burned alive, would ever side with the burns alive with flying flame thrower queen whose father was the one who burned his uncle and grandfather alive.

I'm sure Brandon and Rickard Starks deaths had absolutely no impact on the manner in which Jon grew up as someone who thinks burning people alive is a monstrous way to execute someone. I'm sure it doesn't greatly bother him to watch people die the way his uncle and grandfather were murdered.

But hes got secret targ blood so who cares.

Warlords in a Snowball Fight

A general winter themed flash headcanon, as a gift for the Flash Exchange. @flash-exchange

Headcanon: Warlords in a Snowball Fight

In Azuchi…

Nobunaga – Strides through the field of battle, easily packing the snow into efficient weapons. Cooly confident that nobody would dare...  Splat!

Masamune – A snow battle? Bring it on! Runs wildly into action, skidding to a drift, quickly forms lopsided snowballs, and throws them with surprisingly good aim, especially given his blind side. Which… by the way… Splat!

Hideyoshi –  Sets out a list of rules, including, no ice in the middle of your snowball, no throwing snowballs inside the castle, absolutely no running! In the midst of announcing the rules… Splat!

Ieyasu –  Splat! He goes home and locks himself in his panic room with his emotional support sourdough starter.

Mitsunari – An army is made and broken by its organization. Carefully stockpiles snowballs at strategic points throughout Azuchi. Then gets distracted by a new book and forgets to join in the battle.

Ranmaru – Finds Mitsunari’s useful stacks of snowballs, and climbs to the roof, where he systematically picks everyone off, sniper style. Splat!

Keiji – Stands in the center of the field of play, grabbing the closest snow at hand, and throwing it randomly. He’s a dervish. Then he opens his arms wide and yodels, “Who wants to take on the wild child of these war-torn islands, he whose name is sung far and wide, the roguish misfit, Keiji Maeda?”  Splat! Splat! Splat!  

Mitsuhide – Excels at sneaking from hiding spot to hiding spot, surprising victims by popping up out of nowhere and disappearing before they can retaliate. Is also the reason Ieyasu is hiding.

At Kasugayama… things are slightly more dangerous

Kenshin – Instead of snowballs, hurls icicles like spears.

Kanetsugu –  When people complain about flying icicles, tells them they should be honored to receive such attention from the God of War.

Shingen – Organizes Yukimura and Yoshimoto into a team and carefully strategizes the best times and places to attack. Has also built a working snow catapult. In spite of all that, he ends up strangely covered in snow, because, let’s face it, the man looks great in a wet kimono. And out of one.

Yukimura – Is an athletic and efficient snowball thrower, very good on the front lines in an all-out battle, but not terribly good at sneak attacks.

Yoshimoto – Is every snowflake truly different? Let’s find out? He wanders out into the garden. Is not seen until spring.

Sasuke – After getting hit by one too many icicles, packs his snowballs with ground spikes and sets off smoke bombs to escape.

Lone Forces…

Kennyo –  Tricks Azuchi and Kasugayama into fighting each other, then goes off and feeds hungry forest creatures.

Motonari – Snow? Snow doesn’t burn. Hell has frozen over. Sets sail for more tropical climates at the first sign of a flake.

Kicho – Sets off an avalanche.

Ghouls Headcanons 4

dew once drank gasoline and kept coughing flames to scare the shit out of copia. He scare the shit out of everyone and almost burnt have the ministry down. Sunny tried to use him as a flame thrower.

There a hole in the wall in the common room from where Swiss fell through while he was drunk. They told sister it’s been patched up. They are filthy liars.

All ghouls watch and love baby sensory videos. It’s one of the only ways to keep them calm and quiet. It’s also one of the only ways to keep them distracted. The dancing fruit one works the best.

Sunshine bought a motorcycle with the ministry credit card. She got in a lot of trouble with sister because of it. She blamed it on copia. She also bought aether one so they can go on joyrides together.

Mountain eats rocks. Will just straight up pick rocks up off the ground and crunch down on them. He says he like the crunch. He’s not allowed to have crystals anymore because they’re like candy to him. Don’t ask him about the teeth marks in the granite work surfaces in the kitchen, it wasn’t him.

Aether needs glasses to read. All of the other ghouls find it incredibly attractive.

Sunshine, Swiss and dew are known as the terror triple around the ministry. They are not allowed to be left unsupervised together. They are banned from using cleaning supplies because they tired to make mustard gas. They peed in the gas tanks of all cars that the ministry own. They tried to make a bomb in a toilet. Not a big one they just thought it would be funny if the all water systems were broken at the same time. Thankfully they were unsuccessful.

Birds, rabbits and deer and the number 1 distraction to ghouls (apart from themselves).

They will stand at any window, staring intently at the small creatures, ears high, tails swishing and pupils blown wide while chittering and chirping to each other while

Swiss can’t be trusted with laundry detergent. He drinks it like it’s a smoothie.

Ghouls can’t dream. Something about them not having souls makes them unable to.

Mountain has terrible posture from having to duck down through doorways and lean down to talk to people. Cirrus always rubs his back for him to help.

Cumulus makes the best tiramisu ever. She’s famous for it around the ministry.

Special lives in the basement of the ministry and is the biggest gossip ever. If he’s bored he’ll make something just to see the drama unfold.

Nobody knows but cowbell lives in the basement with special. Everyone thinks he got sent back to the pits.

Aether has never sat through a full movie. He always falls asleep about halfway through. Especially if he’s in the middle of a cuddle pile.

Dew walks around with his hand in someone else’s pocket. Jean pocket, coat pocket, shirt pocket, front or back it doesn’t matter to him he’s wiggling his hand in there.

Rains favourite tv show is friends. He’s had it on repeat since he was summoned. His favourite character is joey because he reminds him of Swiss.

Ghouls have their own language that only ghouls understand. They only speak it around each other in private. They prefer to speak their papas native tongue or English around anyone else.

Rain and mountain watch my neighbour totoro together every Friday night without fail. Sometimes cirrus and cumulus join them.

Aether likes to eat bath bombs. He likes the way they fizz on his tongue. He’s gotten banned from every lush store he’s been in.

Cirrus drinks perfume. She says it smells nice so why would it taste bad. She’s surprised every time when it’s awful.

None of the ghouls can handle caffeine.

When dew was first summoned he was terrified of snow.

All of the ghouls are incredible at Mario cart. Especially cumulus and rain. They fight for first place all the time. Swiss is undefeated at just dance.

Dew and rain completely switch personalities when they’re off stage.

Cumulus does a face mask almost every night and dew and Swiss try to lick it off her every time without fail.

All ghouls are banned from playing among us. No explanation needed you already why.

[a-twistedheartslonging]

Trey: where’s riddle?

Cater: dunno, he went out.

Trey: ah, wait. HE WENT OUT??? IN THE SNOW????

Riddle outside ramshackle: human help.

Gonna use Grim as a flame thrower and get yo bunny boy.

[kimbap-r0ll]

Happy Holidays for all those that celebrate! Here’s something semi-related to the holiday season (I’ll be writing something more shit-posty for tomorrow haha). Not sure if I’ve done this before but here it is!

Dorm Leaders in a Snowball fight

Riddle

Will not participate unless provoked

He takes it seriously, honestly more seriously than he should. Like magic will be involved and his aim is no joke

If it’s with an s/o or so he’s a bit nicer though still a bit competitive. Loser has to buy hot chocolate or so, that kind of thing

He prefers to read by a fireplace but also likes to let his inner childhood recover by joining a snowball war on the campus courtyards. He will likely target Ace and Deuce if they do the same and will team with Trey

Leona

He didn’t want to be part of it but here he is now having been hit by Lilia on accident

If Malleus is involved (or anyone in Diasomnia tbh) he will be super competitive. He’s also super athletic so he will have super endurance haha.

I think he would honestly just like sleeping in or doing some snowboarding/skiing activity during the winter holiday season. However snowball fights (especially more serious ones) do pique his interest

He doesn’t throw as hard with an s/o thankfully, however he has no problem hurling huge mounds of snow at other people :/

Azul

I feel like his first reaction to being hit by snow would be line “😰” and then suddenly he’s throwing a wall of snow because magic + arm strength

He is super competitive and snowball fights will just feed into that. He doesn’t like confrontation but if needed he will participate. He’s sneaky, he’s good at throwing things, but he has low endurance

With an s/o he will likely throw a very small amount of snow and will be super nice haha. However in any other circumstance he’s with Jade and Floyd with a whole snow fortress

He usually likes sitting and reading by a fire too during the winter, but he also likes to listen to holiday jazz classics

Kalim

He probably started the snowball fight first in his own dorm but then it grew into the entire school haha

Super chill and not that competitive. He’ll give his all but that doesn’t mean he’ll be sneaky or try to use magic to win. He’s just there to have fun and will do just that

With an s/o I feel like a snowball fight would result after a snowman building competition or so. Like it’s not the first thing in his mind but it can happen

He usually likes to just make hot chocolate and watch movies. However he also likes to play in the snow (mostly because his hometown doesn’t get any). He works with Jamil who might do most of the hard work in snowball fighting haha

Vil

Literally tried to avoid getting involved but was hit by accident from Epel and he immediately got ready haha

Competitive! He wants to do it with grace however so he looks good throwing snow at people but he’s also super good at throwing in general. He has Rook as well so whoever’s fighting Vil might wanna give up before a snow mound gets catapulted in their way

Vil likes watching vintage films or spending the holidays listening to good music and just chilling. If he had an s/o they would be part of his hobbies. They might go shopping too!

He’s just an overall menace in like everything. He would throw super well and might get on a competitive streak with Azul and Riddle

Idia

Probably got involved by accident. He was just walking and minding his own business (watching a gameplay) when suddenly snow hit his face. Ortho might’ve also convinced him to play

Not the best thrower but will find a tech that works for him (lmao make a snowball gun thing) and he just becomes a menace on the courtyard. He’s probably playing alongside Ortho

With an s/o he probably doesn’t throw snow back, just tells them like he found it kind of funny (might be a bit embarrassed tbh). He likes to spend time indoors and will want to play games with them on holidays

Overall I think he would rather watch people than be part of the fight. He might become the unofficial game announcer if people really want him to be it haha

Malleus

It was pure accident (maybe) when Leona hit Malleus with some snow. The next thing people knew hundreds of snowballs were hurled into the air

He’s not super competitive but likes to give his all, which means magic is involved and it’s almost deadly fighting with him haha. He has super good aim and has crazy high endurance when he’s really into something, so the game might go on four a really long time

With an s/o, he’s pretty nice about throwing snow. If anything, he’d rather go ice skating or do something wholesome with them (he has a soft spot for cute activities people just don’t know it).

Overall if he and Lilia are on your team y’all will win that snowball fight on the school courtyard 200%. He’s kind of competitive but honestly is just happy he’s invited to an event

[jammerskrik]

honestly I’ll never have a job as funny and wild as old 1950s cumbies. I think that’s probably the top silliest stupid job I’ve ever had. I had a coworker named kilfeather who was a late thirties obese literal fedora’d neckbeard, who unfailingly made the various (East Asian) women of Boston uncomfortable by being on brand to the point of addressing them as ‘M’lady,’ and split his time between manga and atheist reddit boards and masturbation. He gave his entire savings to The Occupy Movement, then rebuilt it only to then give it all to Bernie Sanders… he was Irish white trash from one of the most depressed towns in western mass, his parents were farmer-descended biker gang ppl that he dropped out of nineth grade to caretake once the cigarette genocide got them. He used to give me impassioned speeches about how the most important issue of our time is centering black and brown voices, and then, without fail, partially magic and partially because our boss was a black lady from Cali that hated most other African Americans, something beautiful and so fucking ironic and hilarious would happen.

Best was when we had to run down inventory to shut the gas station down around January 2019, our boss interrupted one of Kilfeather’s woke speeches about worshipping ppl darker than him to tell him to go clean out the little cup shed with me and Rokon, a banglandeshi indo-muzzy immigrant who at the time didn’t speak any English yet. Rokon began tossing all the spare foam coffee cup rolls out of the shed to me so I could bag them up, as Kilfeather waddled up through snowfall that was beginning to accumulate to watch us and, perhaps if the opportunity presented itself, resume his anti-racist speech.

About a minute later, Rokon had run out of cups and was suddenly madly pulling up endless flattened layers of shipping cardboard that had formed the flooring beneath the cup rolls, and I mean like decades of layers of flattened cardboard, the station was original from 1951 and the bottom decade or two had become dust and dirt. I stopped helping at my disgust threshold and just stood beside kilfeather in the snow watching R manically pry out every layer and heave it into a comically large pile as if his life depended on it until he suddenly froze. He stood there for a few moments, turned and looked at me n kilfeather, then smiled wide, disappearing into the small old shed like laughing, but a strange rare laugh to hear from a man like that; he squealed with absolute delight then vanished. Kilfeather looked at me like, what? does this mean??

But I didn’t get to reply because Rokon had emerged from the shed holding some kind of giant frozen tangled black disk about a meter in diameter. Kilfeather and I were both immediately instinctually repulsed though neither of us could really process what the disk was in that moment, as Rokon stood there dusted in snow and beaming… but we realised right as he spun around like a discus thrower, launching a massive frozen-solid City of Boston Real Life Rat King into Kilfeather’s face and chest.

There were two black crackheads from Kentucky who would stand outside the gas station like Jay and Silent Bob -style and by this point they were watching in the background, as was our boss. The Crackheads began heckling/roasting the fuck out of Kilfeather and calling him a faggot, and he let out a whine to our boss lady, to see if she could please make the addicts of colour stop calling him the f-slur. she was super Christian and super racist and she gracefully walked to Kilfeather through the snow and was like ‘well baby, I am worried that you never stand up for yourself, if Rokon hadda thrown that at me I wouldda whooped his ass to Death on the spot!’

idk cumbies was super funny

[its-ya-boi-kaz]

The crows reaction to being hit with a snow ball snow ball:

Nina: lets out a blood curdling screech and starts making snowballs to attack immediately

Jesper: turns around with a shit eating grin on his face and a shit load of snowballs in his arms. That is, if he wasnt the one to start the fight in the first place.

Kaz: shark stare right before the ball is thrown, if that didn't scare the thrower away (because theyre either god himself or really desperate to meet him) and they managed to throw the snow ball, he would calmly wipe the snow from his clothes, not once taking his eyes off them. "they will be picking up parts of you to burn on the Reaper's Barge for three weeks. You'll be alive for two of them." (inej is the exception she can throw as much snowballs as she wants) (she doesnt)

Wylan: a bit confused and embarrassed at first, but will definitely make revenge balls (they cant be called snowballs, theyre a bit too lethal for that) if he's asked to play

Matthias: gets hit by nina's snowball right in the face. Goes on a rampage about how snowballs signify the youth of the winter yada yada yada

Inej: moves aside right before the balls hit her on pure instinct. By the end of the fight she has the grand total of three snowflakes on her clothes and that's about as much snow that was able to touch her.

Peeta headcanon

He likes capitol art but does not have the exhibitional narcissism of the capitol. Like Cinna. Peeta also likes flowers but hates roses becuase of Snow. He thinks white is a bland color anyway, and when he sees it he tastes rotten human flesh(when Quintilus joined the squad he wore white on orders of Coin but when Peeta complained about this Private Mayne threatened to blackmail coin and insinuated that her next meal could be her last unless he was given a different uniform and called her pathetic for using him to get a rise out of Peeta and Annie). In d13 he was so triggered by white roses that he collected every white rose he could find and arranged for them to be burned. This was done in training where he was being instructed in the usage of flame throwers.

In d12 he loves it when Katniss brings him flowers.( This is a girlish quality of Peeta, Katniss does not like flowers as much as Peeta does but still loves flowers)

[mariacallous]

If you've been wondering when you’ll be able to order the flame-throwing robot that Ohio-based Throwflame first announced last summer, that day has finally arrived. The Thermonator, what Throwflame bills as “the first-ever flamethrower-wielding robot dog” is now available for purchase. The price? $9,420.

Thermonator is a quadruped robot with an ARC flamethrower mounted to its back, fueled by gasoline or napalm. It features a one-hour battery, a 30-foot flame-throwing range, and Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity for remote control through a smartphone.

It also includes a Lidar sensor for mapping and obstacle avoidance, laser sighting, and first-person-view navigation through an onboard camera. The product appears to integrate a version of the Unitree Go2 robot quadruped that retails alone for $1,600 in its base configuration.

The company lists possible applications of the new robot as "wildfire control and prevention," "agricultural management," "ecological conservation," "snow and ice removal," and "entertainment and SFX." But most of all, it sets things on fire in a variety of real-world scenarios.

Back in 2018, Elon Musk made the news for offering an official Boring Company flamethrower that reportedly sold 10,000 units in 48 hours. It sparked some controversy, because flamethrowers can also double as weapons or potentially start wildfires.

Flamethrowers are not specifically regulated in 48 US states, although general product liability and criminal laws may still apply to their use and sale. They are not considered firearms by federal agencies. Specific restrictions exist in Maryland, where flamethrowers require a Federal Firearms License to own, and California, where the range of flamethrowers cannot exceed 10 feet.

Even so, to state the obvious, flamethrowers can easily burn both things and people, starting fires and wreaking havoc if not used safely. Accordingly, the Thermonator might be one Christmas present you should skip for little Johnny this year.

"Snow" Thrower

[moonlightduelist]

it’s been snowing in helsinki for 24h straight and there’s like 20cm of snow on the ground and with each cm added i’m closer and closer to me snapping and renting that flame thrower
