I think you answered this earlier, but are small dog breeds shorter than big or medium dog breeds in this universe?

Small dogs are usually on the shorter side of average and bigger breeds tend to be taller, but the difference isn't massive, they're all within the range of normal human height variation.

Switzerland as the Swiss guard 🇨🇭⚜️

Pope overheard the Swiss Guard talking shit, asked what they meant by that phrase, they lied, and now it's everyone's problem

the Swiss guard WOULD... tbh frankly in my experience most people in Italy who say “frociaggine” are in fact froci themselves. I choose to believe one of these seminaristi froci grew up to become the pope's assistant

You might think these Renaissance uniforms occupy the realm of yesteryear, but you'd be wrong! These are the costumes of the Swiss Guards who guard the Pope/Vatican still today! They recruit Swiss unmarried Catholic men between 18-30.

i took a pause from VfV because life got busy and why did no one tell me they confirmed that THE SWISS GUARD WAS INTO RENÉE??

I saw Mendely's Vatican Miku and I had a flash of inspiration.

Behold: Swiss Guard Miku!

With this, Vatican City probably has more themed Mikus than some small countries where people actually live 👍

Nobody accosts a stranger in Association uniform, no matter how exhausted he looks or how terrible his headache is, which is a real blessing after a day of extra shifts: he parts with Rodya at the streetlight, makes the last turn alone, then he’s up the stairs’ and at the front door, and there’s some peace. Or is there?

im back to terrorize the tags.

There really is a whole genre of Napoleon standing in the Tuileries looking nonchalant during the French Revolution artwork

the formatting on this one is a little bit weird on mobile but oh well ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

SET UP FOR FAILURE: Fingerprints | Wrongfully Arrested | "I warned you."

CW: Talk of death (no explicit content), prisons and strangulation (implied)

Whumpee is being blackmailed, and Whumper tells them to "meet up" at a certain spot in a deserted alleyway. Whumpee, having no choice, walks right into the trap and a murder case. Unbeknownst to Whumpee, Whumper also notified the police of some suspicious activity in that very area. The police officers just happen to round the corner to the alleyway to find Whumpee, with blood on their hands and their fingerprints all over a dead body...

"I warned you. Get in my way, and this is where it gets you."

Every time Caretaker visits Whumpee in jail, they always seem to look a little worse for wear, with them usually limping over to their seat or hunching over more than normal. Whumpee always tries to play it off, but Caretaker can still sense that something isn't right. It all comes to a head when one day, Whumpee walks in with the deep grooves of handprints on their neck and wrists.

i actually really struggled with this prompt list as prison whump is something i've never really explored before (⁠─⁠.⁠─⁠|⁠|⁠）but i hope i did it justice!! see you tomorrow for day 4!! :D

everything I've been forced to learn about hygiene and toilets at Versailles since I joined Twitter is against my will

I mean it's good information to have and I'm excited to actually finish this Super Long Article About How Yes Versailles Had Toilets and Bathrooms And No It Wasn't Normal to Pee or Poop on the Floor and Yes Louis XIV Bathed Damn It

and yes I learned it of my own choosing instead of ignoring the myths

but still
