#this is not even including 'accessory' tasks like taking care of my cats and like. spending any amount of time at all with my partner?

[tethered-heartstrings]

genuinely am not sure how I'm expected to get enough sleep, go to school, do all my assignments, study, exercise, keep up with dishes and laundry, keep my house clean, shower everyday, buy groceries, prepare 3 (healthy) meals a day and eat them, and not explode in the process???

[w1tchsoup]

Tumblr's drafts ate my ask meme reply, so it's going in here instead! @piipaw

🌇 for a headcanon about morning- or evening ritual:

His morning ritual is the one that changes the least between when he lives in a camp or indoors. He rises with the sun, meditating before all else, preferably in the dawn's light. That's easy in a camp. He shuffles outside his tent with his eyes still screwed shut, his voluminous hair a rat's nest, drool caked to his chin, and he kneels, taking in the glorious potential of the day.

The hair is getting addressed as soon as he's out of the zone. I cannot stress how uncomfortable it can get having long hair tangled in horns from restless sleep. Gale's usually kind enough to give him a hand if he's not in a hurry because he overslept. Hoshi resquest no magic be used. If someone's helping, it's now a ritual of sorts. It's social grooming for the sake of establishing bonds now.

If there's anyone else around to be awake at that point, he's going to try to rope them into stretching with him. He doesn't care what their skill level is. In his opinion, loosening up can make a huge difference in people's quality of life and he knows much about how to properly do it. Don't asking him what the names of any of the muscles are anywhere unless it's the glutes and the tongue. He will have no idea. Point to an area that's tight and he'll be able to tell you where you actually need to be stretching.

Next is breakfast. Leave that "monks can go many days without food" stuff on the ground. Litereally, anyone can go days without food. It's not even a flex. Save it for emergencies or when he's on a spiritual journey of some sort, alright? He's a big tiefling who likes big meals with people he loves so he can save cats from trees or whatever heroing needs doing. Now that I've painted him like a brute, he's actually a very neat eater. He takes him time to appreciate the meal that's before him, wherever it came from.

This is where it differs by setting; if Hoshi is living a stationary life, this is when he would go bathe. He prefers to start the day feeling fresh and it gives his hair time to dry. If he is out adventuring, he does it at the end of the day out of necessity. Crawling onto his bedroll covered in Gods knows what filth he has on him must be avoided, if the luxury presents itself. It prevents all sorts of illnesses. Unfortunately, that leaves the task of drying all that hair or going to bed with it wet. I've got a drabble I'm writing on this actually, so stay tuned.

Anyhow, clothing and accessories come next. Adventuring makes things so easy. His outfit is picked out for him. It's done. Otherwise, he basically has to lay his clothing out to stare at it until an outfit idea jumps out at him. Since he can't wear rings thanks to the force of his punches, he goes for necklaces instead. Bonus points if they're long enough to compliment his big honkers.

If he's around anyone else who does makeup, he wants to do it alongside them. Otherwise, he'll just take a looking glass to wherever other people are to do it. He's a flexible morning person. If there's talking, he's talking. If the vibe is 'everyone's groggy everyone shut the fuck up," he's happy to put on his contour in comfortable silence. 

So, basically, everyone else is praying that Gale doesn't decide he wants to be included that morning. He'll show up asking Hoshi to do just a smidge of bottom liner for him and now there are two very loud individuals chattering away.

🧼 for a hygiene-themed headcanon:

Cue tiefling headcanons don't @ me. Listen. Game mechanics and how characters work outside battle are two different things. It happens all the time in character interactions.

Keeping the scalier parts of tiefling anatomy exfoliated is a chore. If they're strictly in the company of their own kind, it's not much of an issue. If they're literally rubbing elbows with softer races, it becomes important if they don't want to cause chafing. He'll rub at his joints with a river stone if he has to to smooth out the abrasive edges when he's bathing out in the wilderness.

The claws are a similar issue. Hoshi had already been clipping the ones on his hands since he was a young child in the interest of punching things without stabbing his own hands. The ones on his toes eventually had to go as well. If he goes a few nights without filing them for whatever reason, Gale is going to wake him in the middle of the night to tell him that he's sleeping in the other room. Gale's not angry. He adores him etc etc. There's only so many scrapes on his legs in one night that he can sleep through.

Happy New Year [an update]

2021 felt like an extremely long year. Not just because of all the obvious things, but a lot of personal reasons too.

At the end of the summer, I moved out of a place I'd lived for the last 10+ years. It was the forever home of ALL of my rats. I was sad and overwhelmed. There was so much to do. I had to put my store on hiatus. Everything became 10x harder. New home layout, new neighborhood, new everything.

At the start of the move, I imagined, hoped maybe, that once settled in, I'd fairly quickly bring rats back into my life. It would be the right time. My last rat, Pocket, passed away in September of 2019. I'd find a new vet, get acquainted with a rescue, and set up my two Critter Nations.

Well, that didn't pan out.

Because sometimes you don't choose the animal. The animal chooses you.

One night in October, my partner said from outside our place, "Hey, there's a cat out here." It was nearly completely dark and there were so many mosquitoes. A little cat had come down from the wall to see what us humans were doing. Squatting low with my shirt pulled over my legs (to minimize the bites), I made myself as nonthreatening as possible. The cat was curious, but also nervous and unsure, and she soon left.

A few weeks later, I was watering some plants after sunset and in the semi-darkness, I saw a black, squarish shape on the ground. "Is that a car battery?!" I thought. It wouldn't be out of the question because sometimes people leave trash in random places in the neighborhood.

On this occasion, it wasn't a car battery. It was a cat. The same one from before!

I had prepared for this moment, and brought out my new bag of cat treats. I tossed one, and she went to eat it. I tossed another, a little closer this time, and she ate that too. Over the course of weeks, treats gave away to dry food, and dry food to wet food.

This cat eventually brought another cat, and the second cat brought a third cat.

For the last couple of months, my day has included feeding cats, gaining their trust, and learning as much as I can about them.

I never, ever imagined that I would have cats in my life. I'm a rat person, not a cat person! But, sometimes you don't have a say in these matters because the animal chooses you.

Even though they are yet to be collared and chipped, I have named the cats to make it official — they are Penumbra, Nemi, and Peach. I'm fairly certain Nemi is Penumbra's mom, and possibly also Peach's mom.

Having had rats, I have to say, primed me for this new undertaking like nothing else could have. So many of the rats' accessories are actually cat products, from their carriers to their toys. And, having bonded with traumatized, "difficult" rats like Cream, I feel like the task in front of me is not impossible.

I feel so grateful for my ratties! Even though they are all long gone, my experience with them continues to deepen and inform my new animal relationships.

I like to imagine that if cats can sense ghosts, then they should see about a dozen little rodent spirits telling them to trust me — because this year, I'm going to manage to get them all into carriers and take them to the vet to get all the care they need.

I may still have rats in the future, maybe not immediately, but eventually. I love them and I am a rat person forever.

A Foreigners Lament: Maxinora hails from a land where debts are paid, either in coin or with your head. Each month she is seen slipping from her apartment with a pouch full of coin, disappearing into the night only to return empty-handed. 

Permanent Record: Nefarious people who’ve spent time in Tol’dagor may recognize the eldest Parkhurst’s face. Rumor around the mill says she’s spent time in the Kul’tiran prison. Under what pretenses? It varies depending who you ask. Some say arson, others theft. A few say murder. She’s only spent a few years behind bars, though, and has since cleaned up her act- for the most part. 

Shop Down the Lane: Parkhurst Alchemy: Potions for All Afflictions. The name has gained some infamy in the city. News of the alchemy shop tucked away in a far recess of the Mage Quarter maybe on the tongues of strangers and spoken into the ears of travelers. Their promise to concoct any potion, elixir, or tincture at discounted prices has brought them sudden popularity. Hardly anything is beyond the Parkhurst siblings’ range of knowledge. Whatever they don’t, they vow to figure out. 

Burn Bright: Max finds it difficult to make ends come the last week of each month. To make up for it, she brawls in the back rooms of pubs under fixed terms. Some nights she walks away with deep pockets, and others all she takes home are broken bones and bruises. “All in the name of love,” she tells herself, “So long as he’s taken care that’s all that matters.”

Foreigner by Heart: As a young boy, Augustine infrequently traveled from home. Now in a new kingdom full of new people, he is simultaneously wonder struck and culture shocked. His inquisitive nature makes him exceptionally pestering and sometimes even offensive. He doesn’t know better.

Prodigy Child: The youngest Parkhurst's mind is adaptable and sharp. He excelled in his lessons and surpassed many of his peers back home. It awarded him more enemies than friends and he learned to keep things simple for people; best to be believed dumb and liked than thought intelligent and hated.

The Alchemist’s Apprentice: Augustine never met his mother and barely knew his father. All he’s ever had was Max and his attachment to his sister is evident. He follows eagerly at her heels and looks to follow her lead into the study of alchemy. One of his many tasks as an apprentice is to make the morning deliveries to individuals who can’t make it to the shop; he’s a frequent sight in the streets of the Cathedral, Mage, and Trade District.

Rising Tides: Augustine isn’t blind to the struggles his sister faces. His desire to become fit and strong is palpable in his morning routine of jogging around the city after deliveries. While it isn’t much, it’s something and he hopes to one day be strong enough to take some of the weight off of Max’s shoulders.

OOC info ––– –

CONNECTIONS: The Parkhursts are an open book waiting to be read! Looking for clients, friends, enemies, past relations, you name it! Think your character has met Auggie or Max before? Feel free to DM and we can hash out the details! I’m really hoping for some long-term, story driven interactions but I’m also down for some casual, wholesome content too. 

SCHEDULE: I am unpredictable when it comes to logging onto WoW, but you can always find me on Tumblr! I can give out my Discord and Btag upon request. 

NOTES: Augustine and Max are typically written as a pair so it takes me a second to settle into a scene. If that bugs you, let me know and I’ll focus on one. They’re still relatively new and I’m getting a feel for them and their personalities, so I apologize ahead of time if there’s any inconsistencies!

A new way to enjoy beer

Benjamin Franklin once said “Beer is proof God loves us and wants us to be happy” and retailers are trying to spread the happiness that comes from the beverage by incorporating into foods and products we use daily.

Molly & Drew humbly embarked on their dream in small-town Iowa with 100 bags of homemade beer bread mix at a craft show. Today, Molly & Drew The Beer Bread Company’s beer infused concoctions, consisting of bread and cake mixes, are a staple in thousands of retail stores around the country.

With a name like Swag Brewery you would expect them to be brewing gallons of the sudsy stuff, but instead by brewing a hearty collection of beer infused products. A collection of candles, candy and body soap provides you with a unique and innovative way to experience one the most popular drinks in the world.

These are just a few of the highlights from a long and large marketplace.   For a good selection of trending gifts and home goods, Fieldstone has an extensive portfolio of them and  virtual showroom for easy access.
