Writing reasons, another poll.

While I believe Serena was born in Kalos and moved to Vaniville from somewhere else within the region, I’m not certain if I apply that to her mother or not.

Rhyhorn racing is only a prominent thing in Kalos from what we know, so it’s obvious why Grace would move there. But-

Generally, what is lower cal, cheese or ham (per portion AND per 100g)? Because imo it should be ham, right? Because ham slices weigh way less than cheese???

"average cat owner spends 3 years in prison" factoid actualy just statistical error. average owner spends 0 years in prison. Miette's mother, who kicked her body like the football and went to jail for One Thousand Years is an outlier adn should not have been counted

I've noticed at a lot of the social stuff I go to now, I'm one of the few there who doesn't drink, and I was reminded of the smoking poll. So now I'm curious.

(See below poll for some notes)

*"regularly" meaning you drink even when there's no occasion to motivate it. Basically, not just social drinking.

**If you've had alcohol before but don't drink anymore for any reason, choose no.

This is a ZERO JUDGMENT poll! Every answer is equally valid, and you DO NOT have to explain your answer if you don't want to!

Needle-watch poll

So, I got some vaccinations the other day, and the pharmacy tech seemed unnerved that I opted to watch him insert the needle. And he is not the first to comment on it. I'm willing to accept I'm an outlier and shouldn't be counted, I'm just curious how much of an outlier.

(If you like specifically the diet or sugar free version of any of these, just vote for that option. Same thing for specific flavors, eg. cherry coke, or mtn dew red, etc.)

TRYING AGAIN WITH CLEARER WORDING. PLS READ BEFORE VOTING

*Meaning: When did you stop wearing a mask to a majority of your public activities? Wearing a mask when you feel sick or very rarely for specific events/reasons counts as “stopping”

AO3 readers, I would like some opinions.

Picture this: You're subbed to an account (user subscription, not subscription to just one work or series). I'm going to assume in most cases you follow a specific writer for a specific fandom or a specific kind of thing they write, unless you're maybe supporting a friend which we'll assume is not the case here.

Instead we'll assume the writer in question is either a complete stranger you know only from their author's notes or a fandom acquaintance at best.

Hi hello help.

In Pokemon Masters EX Calem is the confirmed rival, Serena being the protagonist. In leaders of a new era Calem is shown with his confirmed starter and his greninja is shiny.

In my True Calem Run [a run of pokemon X where I play in the mindset of rival calem with a half headcanon team] I did not go through the trouble of shiny hunting my starter to match this fact

A primary issue I could see with him having a shiny is that my Serena run doesn’t have any shiny pokemon on her team either, and that might stick out.

But I can also see the belief that Serena is badass enough on her lonesome that she does not need a shiny pokemon while Calem suffers by being rather bland next to her as her weaker half.

more about these types:

stalking + spying yandere - Self explanatory. A lot of cameras and audio bugs used. They will literally stalk you and find out everything about your life. What they do with that info varies. Mostly, they enjoy the surveillance, simply watching you. This yandere often is a voyeur. They would do all this recon in order to best appeal to your personality/interests, and get in your good graces once they initiate contact.

manipulative yandere - They have the upper hand on you intellectually and make sure you know it implicitly. You may fall for a lot of their lies because of perceived inferiority. After all, they're just so much smarter than you! What they're saying has to be correct or for your benefit. This yandere most likely turns you against your family/friends, gaslights, etc. You only reach a breaking point in the far future, like the idiom of frogs in boiling water.

isolating yandere - They will physically isolate you in a room, cage, etc. Methods of subduing you vary (whether by violence or drugging). The whole point is that they're your only source of social interaction from now on. This yandere enjoys quality time, and every time they see you is a 'date' in their eyes. They're most likely to have a jealous/possessive streak.

never-lets-on yandere - Essentially, this yandere never lets on that they're a yandere. Everything is done without your knowledge. Either they get lucky because things play out to where you don't against their plans; or they're simply amazing liars/actors. They tend to just run your life without your knowledge, pulling you around like an unknowing puppet. Because you're totally unaware of it all, you view them as perfectly normal, and perhaps even one of your closest friends (if not already dating). This type differs from stalking and manipulative, because while they can overlap, this yandere doesn't change your life perceptibly. You can still have friends, family, a life, a sense of agency - they're just secretly a control freak behind the scenes. You've never had true 'free will' since they met you. Most likely to commit somno.
