#they do things such as jewelry making

A little character design exercise they are a Paleolithic tribe. The herbalist, a quiet, solemn woman and her student, a young, shy, transgender girl. And on the right, her best friend, an adrenaline junky with lots of fire.

If you're interested in textile art, please understand it will not end at one of the arts. Interested in weaving? There are many different types, so now you're learning about the culture these styles come from, and with that comes learning about their clothing. Now you're interested in learning how to sew clothing, and much of it has some kind of embroidery. So you do research and see how beautiful it is, and different types of embroidery exist. You decide to learn embroidery and get curious about lace because often they're seen together.

Prepare for a journey and get real good at organizing. You'll soon lose space because of supplies and tools.

I can't stop thinking about Blade saying gifts are unfamiliar.

And I can't stop thinking about Kafka and Silver Wolf, hearing that, and making it a mission to bring him gifts whenever they travel somewhere for their script - even if he's there with them. About the confusion in his eyes when they steal buy something and turn right around to hand it to him.

About his room starting out completely empty except for the bare minimum necessities, a few spare clothes and what he needs to take care his Shard Sword, but filling up with little trinkets and gifts over time. Clothes and jewelry and perfume from Kafka and posters, figures and plushies from Silver Wolf. About them also bringing food back, expensive specialties swiped from a restaurant and the weirdest option they could spot in a lone vending machine, a category of gifts that doesn't leave anything behind (except the photos they both take of the three of them eating together, or of the faces he makes when Silver Wolf manages to trick him into trying a suspicious snack while he's distracted with polishing his weapon).

About Kafka spending hours finding clothes and jewelry she thinks would suit him, because that's her love language. She gets him makeup too, refusing to let his good looks go to waste. She knows he can't put it on himself, they both do, and he doesn't care for his appearance enough otherwise - but he'll let her do his makeup for him anyway, because she enjoys it, and because he finds it soothing.

About Silver Wolf also buying him clothes, but the ones she gets aren't his style at all, and just barely his size. She gets them for him, but just so she can steal them right back - her love language is quality time, and she fills Blade's room with gifts she can borrow along with a moment of his day. It still counts as a gift, she insists, practically swimming in an oversized jacket she swiped from his closet.

About how in another life, Yingxing gave gifts to the people he loved and in this one, Blade receives them from those who love him.

Passing on advice I received growing up as someone who grew up around alternative adults of several flavors and heavily tattooed folks with "job killer" tattoos (and was raised by one such person!) that I have had to put into practice as someone who is alternative themself now:

If you are a young alternative person, it cannot be understated how important having a couple "normie" pieces of clothes in your closet "just in case" is.

Sometimes you will have a job interview, a doctor's appointment, a housing application, or some other kind of obligation where for your own safety and security you need to tone yourself down for a brief period of time.

It's not fair. It's bullshit. But sometimes you have to eat your vegetables you know? And it's a cost benefit analysis and it depends on the things you personally prioritize in your own life, but sometimes minor sacrifices have to be made in order to keep yourself safe and get yourself things you need to do so.

just saw someone online describing their autistic experience as “always grieving the things you want to be but aren’t made for” and I emotionally collapsed. I feel that so much

Someone should date me so i can lovingly put the 8 million bracelets i make on their wrist and make heart eyes at them every time they wear them

Listen I know that Harrow probably uses bones from dead members of the Ninth House but by god you will take my headcanon that, while that is the tradition, she instead grew her own using her baby teeth as the base.

Mostly because I like the idea of her random skeletons actually being copies of herself and because keeping her teeth for necromancy purposes sounds like something she would do.

It's September 1st

Happy birthday to Kiwi of Water 7! She is 22.

Now, this is a little unusual, folks, but we got a Person Of Interest, so to speak, currently wrapped up in breaking news, with a birthday today—none other than Captain Jewelry Bonney! Since this story is still unfolding, make sure you've kept up with the latest news (and the best source of news is the World Economic Newspaper) before you check it out!

Happy birthday to Jewelry Bonney, captain of the Bonney Pirates! She is 12. We don't have it direct from him, but we're pretty sure her dad would like to wish her a very happy birthday.

We couldn't get ahold of Captain Bonney for a quote, for obvious reasons, but it is the opinion of this paper that her future is looking brighter than ever!

I don't have twitter and I've never drawn a Miku before in my life, but I adore that trend happening rn and wanna drop down my two cents, so let's go with the research to make a Hatsune Miku: but she is from my family (hard to explain, but it's absolutely Texan)
