Zero out of zero doctors recommend these frog earrings. That's 100% of the doctors we asked.

AU where each side has a talking animal sidekick that helps and guides them and is kind of like their therapy animal. Janus has a snake, Patton has a frog, Virgil has his spider, etc

(I specifically made this post because I was watching Kiki's Delivery Service and kept imagining Kiki and Jiji as Virgil having a back-and-forth with his moody talking spider)

Despite the gameplay being stale and repetitive I still enjoy Pocket Camp because it's doesn't ask as much of me as a regular Animal Crossing game does. Plus, you can be friends with people who make the coolest profile pictures. Like this!

Frogger reference ftw!

Aaaand you can also be friends with people who make pics like this:

I wish we had a chat feature because I'd love to ask CC here "what the fuck"...

Add me on Pocket Camp if you like!

what the fuck is croakichi

Let me tell you a story, anon.

The year is 2020, and I am bored out of my mind in quarantine, as we all were. During one of these boredom fests, I happened upon kokichis-dead-dove-club and his streams (which he did fairly often at the time), and I would drop in on them occasionally.

I was suddenly cursed by a frog pun from the depths of my mind (seriously, I have no idea how or why I thought of it) , and I rushed to make an image to send to him and the other stream viewers. When I say rushed, I mean RUSHED. It took me at most 5 minutes, and most of that was removing the background of the frog image.

I give you, dear anon, Croakichi:

The original image is now functionally lost media and this is the only proof I have that it ever existed

TW!! insects, beetles, frogs

i find it very interesting that Olimar notes in the Piklopedia how the White Pikmin, despite being poisonous beings, do not have a bright or striking colour, rather having their titular hue

it's amazing!! normally, in nature, an animal or a plant that's venomous/poisonous will display vibrant colours to warn other creatures to stay away

this is called Aposematism!

the use of warning colouration in animals and plants to indicate that they are dangerous in one way or another, be it poison, venom or any other kind of threat!!

while yes, white is one of the colours some will display, it usually comes in a striking or eye catching pattern like that of a skunk or a honey badger

but for my main example i'm taking notes from the Poison Dart Frog and Yellow Blister Beetles (yes, they look a lot like Anode Beetles!!!)

the frogs have very bright colouration, ranging from a solid coat of colour, like the Golden Poison Dart Frog, to more intricate patterns like the Amazon Poison Dart Frog

Yellow Blister Beetles have yellow stripes or sometimes spots on their solid black backs, and once crushed or squeezed, they will release toxins

as for plants, i think my best example would be the Nightshade family

but Moth!! there are many poisonous flowers out there with white colouration!!

you are very right! there are! Lilies, Giant Hogweed, Jimson Weed and Water Hemlock to name a few!

however i bring you this: Pikmin, and by extent the Ambuloradicis class, are both stated to exhibit both animal and plant traits, and since they do show more "animal" traits, i decided to give this one characteristic to them

therefore, it would make sense the Pikmin are very brightly coloured! little guys won't go down without a fight!

but White Pikmin?? why not show vibrant colours or eye catching patterns??

and here's where i want to do some fun speculation:

creatures that consume the Pikmin are also prey, yes? the Pikmin coexist with the planet's flora and fauna through the natural cycle of life and death: the Pikmin that are consumed give life to others, produce nutrients and therefore produce more offspring for said bugs; the beings that are hunted by the Pikmin will, in turn, become nutrients for the Onion to produce more seeds

what i'm going for is - the Pikmin and the Creatures need each other to thrive, they consume each other so that they will both live, it creates a balance!

back to the White Pikmin, i think it would make sense that they don't decide to outright present themselves as dangerous: to be consumed by a bug would mean that it would get poisoned and die, therefore becoming another corpse for the Pikmin to feed to their Onion- simple!

however i do see some flaws in this little headcanon: while not very striking, the White Pikmin's body colour makes a nice contrast to their vibrant red eyes and you can even see a hint of purple creeping on their limbs!

maybe there's no special reason for them to be just white, maybe it's just a fun colour!

a hungry Bulborb would no doubt eat the very first tiny carrot in front of it, even if it's got an interesting colour to it!

but this was all just an excuse to ramble about my favourite things: nature and Pikmin!!

edit: added pictures! pretty pictures... :]

📷 various art of Lulu and Chips, ocs made by Alex, @/polaris-stuff and I

🍫 chocolate 100%. Unless it's ricotta cheese which is very sweet actually

✨️ yup, Ells mainly. Old nicknames were Permie, Grouch, Miss Indecisive (from my uncle lol, my brother* was Miss Obvious (*we're both trans masc, so the miss part is from when we were little and still called the girls))

🎵 Legendary from Epic the musical, tho currently I have King For A Day by Pierce The Veil stuck in my head XD (and now I have their other song Phantom Power and Ludicrous Speed stuck in my head too lol)

✏️ yes lol

😏 yup

💛 just my ears, I usually just wear tiny threadless earrings so I don't take them out all that often (although I probably should to at least clean off the bit of dead skin that can build up on them)

🐰 honestly I have no idea

🍪 chocolate chip probably lol, maybe with something fun added, like butterscotch chips or bits of toffee

🐶 cat person. I don't hate dogs, I just unfortunately don't really have the energy for them, especially puppies. I get overstimulated very easily by all the jumping up and biting and shit and it can make me have really bad meltdowns where I yell or shove our puppy away which makes me feel like an awful person so yeahhhh, cats for sure. Although ironically it's cats that I'm allergic to 💀. Nothing severe thankfully, but when we first got my two cats who'd been raised as barn cats for the first 9 weeks of their lives, I couldn't even sit in a room with them for a full hour before my allergies were acting up really bad and making it a bit difficult to breathe (asthma). It's better now but my eyes still get itchy as hell if I get too much cat hair in them (fun fact, it's not actually the hair most folks are allergic to when it comes to cats, it's the saliva. But because they clean themselves with their tongues, the saliva is all over their fur lol. Which is also why hairless cats aren't actually hypoallergenic.)

🎧 used to be a headphones only person but now I prefer earbuds

🌼 I honestly don't remember

🙃 the reason you get all snotty when you cry is because your tear ducts are constantly producing tears to lubricate your eyes, but when you cry they overproduce tears and some of it runs down your sinuses into your nose and mixes with the mucus to create snot

🦉night owl (insomnia mixed with daytime chronic fatigue is a bitch 😔)

🧸 my bed, tho car rides are also very relaxing

🏳️‍🌈 yup (transmasc agender and aro ace)

🦋 (skipping this one 'cause it makes me a bit anxious)

👖sweatpants, jeans aren't really all that comfortable for me, tho I'll wear them for work if needs be

🥤I don't go to starbucks lol, not really a coffee person (adhd makes it complicated XD, coffee does weird things), I prefer hot coco

🧡 hm, honestly there's not really any, though certain colours or combinations can cause a lotta strain on my eyes and give me migraines. I do prefer more redish pinks over purple pinks tho, they just aren't my fav

💎 hm...that's a hard one actually. So I guess I'll do two, based on different criteria. For like things I use the most and enjoy a ton, def my ipad for drawing. But for sentimental things, probably my dad's bass guitar. I have a lot of things of his but that's the one I'm like really attatched to. I can't play it 'cause my hands are too small to reach the frets, but it's still something I plan to keep for the rest of my life.

☕️ tea, as mentioned before, coffee reacts weird with me lol (acts like an adhd stimulant for about an hour before I crash and sleep), also coffee tastes like shit so if I ever drink it it's like half coffee half creamer and sugar XD

🦖 hm, never really thought about it honestly. I looked up extinct animals and found the golden toad, which seems neat

🌙 uhhh...since some time in 2021, so...3ish years? Going on 4?

🌴 fucking water honestly, I get horrible migraines in the heat

🐸 I have no idea XD, adhd cluttered but organized? Something like that lol. It's messy but it's not too messy, it has to be organized in piles and I gotta be able to see the damn floor

🔮 author! Been wanting to be one since I was 10, almost 11, so uhhhh...11 going on 12 years?

💙 taken by Alex :D

🌿 comfy sweatpants and some sorta t shirt lol, prob lilo and stitch themed (I have a bunch of shirts for the movie XD)

🎤 uhhhh...not sure honestly. I used to have Lithium by Evanescence memorized tho

🤎 blonde

💌 yep

💄 nope, only really wore it for choir concerts lol, 'cause stage lights wash you the fuck out XD

🌸 well now I'm just pulling a blank lol, but compliments to my writing make me really happy, especially when it's about the diversity in my stories. I really loved how someone once said the way I write romance feels very queerplatonic, high compliment to me as an aro lol

💞 hehe it's Alex (in all seriousness I like a lotta folks I just dislike tagging people 'cause it makes me anxious)
