Cosmozoans you wish you could pet

As you venture out into the galaxy, it's not all humanoids you know. Our universe is full of space-born life known as Cosmozoans. These creatures fly around the depths of space living their best lives and occasionally getting into crazy scrapes when a starship flies by. And you know what? A bunch are SO CUTE! We did a poll of our team to find out which ones we want to take home and snuggle with (not accounting for size). 

So get out your EV suit, we’re here to pet space’s cutest lifeforms!

Gekli

These snuggly babies might get a bit close to your ship’s fusion reactors but there’s no denying how touchy-feely they can get. One, nicknamed ‘Junior’, was suckling off the Enterprise D until its kindred were found in a nearby asteroid belt. In our books, it can’t be blamed for thinking the Enterprise was mommy.

Farpoint creature

Maybe we’re pushing cuddly by including a jellyfish, but our local Benzite here, Mandiks, insisted. But what is undeniable is how beautiful and glorious these creatures are in their natural forms. When we say natural forms; well they also double as space vessels. So I guess you can cuddle them from the inside?

Gormagander

Sometimes given the misnomer, “space whale”, this majestic creature is endangered due to them being so obsessed with eating that they forget to reproduce. A feeling some of our readers may sympathise with. The bonus is adopting it in an official refuge will help protect them from hunters; so adopt a whale to save the whales!

Crystalline Entity

This handsome snowflake of awesome proportions might consume whole planets or all organic matter on a regular basis, but it has also consumed our affections. Just be sure to get your graviton pulses at the right rate or it may get confused as to where it’s dinner is.

Verugament

These gorgeous bioluminescent organisms migrate through space looking for new breeding grounds (they seem a lot better at that than the Gormagander; take notes, readers. We know you've been without, for seven years about). While easily small enough to get your arms around, they can deliver painful electric shocks and are considered by Bal here to be “icky” given their goopy texture. That's not for everyone, but they're definitely cute.

Gomtuu

Much like the aforementioned Farpoint creature, Gomtuu are sentiment organic space vessels who can communicate telepathically. These creatures share something with cats; the ability and will to defend their boundaries. Get too close without permission and you may find yourself caught up in an energy wave capable of destroying a Warbird. My cat is still more fierce about being petted without warning, however (incidentally, from our last pet poll it seems you lot are all about your cats too! Congratulations, we have readers of culture).

Rytonian

These little squid babies, again on the list thanks to Mandiks’ love of marine-looking life (we are told they have quite an aquarium at home), are formed from the gravity well inside nebulae. Large swarms may be formed during intense energy waves. Don’t you just want to boop their… their… I don’t see a nose but that won’t stop me booping them.

Tardigrade

These little creatures are a bit more of a huggable size. They’re interdimensional creatures who can incorporate other forms of DNA within their own and warp across the galaxy: your chief engineer can eat their heart out! (that's a human expression I'm told, we do not advise they actually do that). They’re friendly but fearsome in self-defence so absolutely do not be late with their dinner! 

Disclaimer

We could include a great number of other entities such as the telepathic pitcher plant, Zetarians, Beta Renner cloud, Calamarain, Species 8472, Cosmic cloud, Nucleogenic cloud, space amoeba, and so on but we figure we have to draw the line at petting somewhere and have gone with the most common humanoid feelings on the matter. Do correct us though if you want to hug the space amoeba!

"This is why we can't keep secrets, one of us always ends up covered in slime." This call back to the pilot episode where Boimler gets covered in the spider-cow slime, and the begining of season three when all of th get covered in the verugament slime. Are there other examples I'm forgetting, I HAVE to know.

So, Yhwach's name in Japanese is pronounced "ユーハバッハ/yuuhabahha." This is seemingly due to the "wach" part of it being pronounced the German way, and Japanese employing betacism (using Bs for Vs) on top of rendering the "ch" fricative at the end with a breathy "hha."

So in English, you'd get "yuuhavahhk" (the hhk at the end being how I'm trying to represent the guttural ch noise, which the IPA transcribes as /x/).

But I've recently seen some people posit that Yhwach's name, when spoken in English, is actually supposed to maintain the B-sound that is found in the Japanese pronunciation "yuuhabahha" because Kubo consistently always uses "ヴ/V" kana when there should be a V sound in a character's name. Such as...

Loly Aivirrne (アイヴァーン/aivaan)

Ggio-Vega (ヴェガ/vega)

Invaders Must Die (インヴェイダーズ/inveidaazu)

Even Haschwalth (ハッシュヴァルト/hasshuvaruto) and Wandenreich (ヴァンデンライヒ/vandenraihi) use V kana, while Yhwach doesn't.

...and since Yhwach doesn't have a ヴ/V kana, but does have the バ/B kana, it's an indication that it intentionally should be pronounced with the B regardless of what language you're speaking.

Which I thought was an interesting observation, though not an airtight one, as he still does use B kana to represent V noises in many resurreccion names.

Volcánica (ボルカニカ/borukanika)

Cierva (シエルバ/shieruba)

Veruga (ベルーガ/beruuga).

(Though, interestingly, in Spanish the letters B and V are pronounced nearly identically anyway, so Kubo probably didn't feel it necessary to make a distinction here since they're all Spanish terms?)

But it did leave me wondering why Yhwach does have a B kana in his name despite other names and terms immediately related to him using V.

And the only reasons I could come up with are:

It's to indicate that his name is much older than others, to the point that more modern conventions hadn't been brought about when he named himself. (I don't think this is that likely since YHWH's name itself is rendered with a ヴ/V kana, and that name predates even Yhwach's.)

Kubo just thought having a バ between the ハs looked more aesthetically pleasing.

The shapes of the kana ユ, ハ, and バ themselves give off a sort of Hebrew silhouette as well, while ヴ kinda doesn't, and since Yhwach's name is derived from YHWH (יהוה‎), that is probably intentional.

Now a quick search on Wikipedia tells me that the letter that represents the V sound in modern Hebrew (ב)* used to represent the B sound in ancient Hebrew -- and continued to do so for a time if geminated or following a consonant (which the "V" in Yh'v'ach technically does).

*=I also think it's funny how ב looks like ユ.

With that in mind, I suppose one could say that Kubo was possibly trying to do some fun linguistics thing where he applies German phonology to a Hebraic-inspired name, but utilizes ancient Hebrew pronunciation in recognition of Yhwach's age. So the end result is you get a German word -- "wach" -- that's pronounced "bach" due to how betacism used to be employed in Hebrew.

Which is fun in a super roundabout way.

All this is to say, I still think Yhwach's name should be pronounced "yuuhavahhk" outside of Japanese (besides the places where the language conflates Vs and Bs anyway, I guess), but this was a fun topic to delve into.

Though whether it should be a V or a B sound, I think we can all agree that the English dub keeping the "hha" at the end is objectively stupid, since it's obviously supposed to be the /x/ fricative. Even the Japanese actors sound like they understand they're supposed to be approximating a "ch" sound there.

Sacrificio

Un dibujo por fiestas patrias de mi pais (Perú), de Daniel Alcides Carrion quien se injecto el virus de la "veruga peruana" y documento todos sus sintomas y padecimientos, gracias a ello se descubrio que la "veruga peruana" y la "fiebre de oroya" son la misma enfermedad.

Aun que no se a el personaje mas apropiado de dibujar por fiestas ya que el tiene su propia celebracion civica (5 de Octubre), aun me siento agusto por dibujar al que vino de la independencia de mi pais.

Enquanto eu me maquiava, atrasada, no metrô, entrou uma jovem velha ou uma senhora muito nova de mala feita e cara feia na estação Santana da linha azul. Ela não devia ter mais do que uns 25 anos, mas tinha essa aparência envelhecida porque as sobrancelhas se curvavam de forma que queriam se tocar nas laterais primarias, cruzando os extremos e definindo marcas de expressões que automaticamente me transportavam para o tempo da infância e alegoria criada em volta de bruxas, daquelas bem específicas que a gente via na tv quando criança, de nariz grande e veruga na ponta, de capa preta e vassoura marrom, cerdas velhas. A perfeita idealização da maldade, da maçã envenenada, da agulha de costura que foi amaldiçoada um dia. Mas a moça era loira e muito bonita, acompanhada de um cara também não jovem e não velho asiático do sorriso frouxo que tentava agradar passando os braços pela cintura fina da mulher. (Pasmem na habilidade de manter-se nos meio-termos e quase-categorias) Pensei: será que hoje é um mal dia ou será que ela está sempre insatisfeita injuriada irritada entendiada? Como se, por exemplo, caminhar descalça em brasa ou lava fosse mais suave do que aquele vagão naquela manhã de sábado. Em São Paulo todo mundo corre. Em São Paulo todo mundo sofre. E a correria abafa a dor, o suor esconde as lágrimas. Deixe a esquerda livre, sempre, e deixe dentro de mim a faixa da esquerda apenas pra quem quiser correr e pisar fundo, engatar a quinta. Meu olhar ia do espelho e do corretivo bege natural para a frente, para o casal. "Uma mala de viagem pronta e ela com essa cara feia. Se eu estivesse indo viajar eu estaria feliz. As pessoas não sabem aproveitar o que tem." Um estalo forte como toalha molhada na cara e eu, agressora e agredida pela própria mentalidade e racionalidade ligeira que em milésimos cria vidas, senti. Você nunca sabe o que o outro está realmente vivenciando e pensei: Pessoas viajam para enterros, Porque parentes estão doentes Por problemas. Associei tudo isso a história da breve memória dos peixes, que esquecem todo o vivido podendo armazenar apenas 60 segundos de lembranças por vez. É um alivio pensar que não existe estaticidade e que em tempos diferentes sou pessoas diferentes. O moço que me viu chorando na frente da farmácia aquela quinta feira deve achar que eu sou uma pessoa muito triste, e nem imagina que eu apenas chorava por não ser amada e que depois daquilo, já me amei o suficiente pra não precisar receber esse sentimento de mais ninguém no mundo. E o senhor que sorriu pra mim enquanto eu subia a Conselheiro Crispiano de vestido e batons vermelhos, me sentindo alguma entidade sobrenatural absorta em auto-estima e confiança, com os fones gritando The Cure e a alma roncando de fome pela vida que ainda não pude viver, nem imagina que ao fim daquele dia carreguei os cacos para a cama tentando recompor a própria existência vazia e sórdida que parecia cruz de mármore a ser carregada.

Se sua passagem é breve tua marca é igualmente sutil porém bruscamente memorável como a forma em que se personificou. Eu vi a moça fugindo de um selinho que o asiático tentava depositar e agora, não consigo imaginá-la o abraçando com ternura e se deliciando em qualquer carícia por aquele homem desenvolvida e penso que vivem uma relação mais fria do que o ar condicionado da c&a. E eu nem tinha que pensar nada, cara. Eu só precisava terminar de me maquiar e chegar na Galeria do Rock porque era o quinto dia consecutivo em que eu me atrasava e minha patroa ficaria puta, num sábado de dezembro, com o meu horário abusivo de chegada. Também, quem me viu correndo na saída da São Bento e esbarrando sem pedir desculpas não imagina que eu tenho educação e sou apenas vítima, ao mesmo tempo em que juíza, do doentio caos de estar e ser uma metrópole simultanea. Vulnerável e invencível, você vê, basta que eu abra a boca pra me tornar um paradoxo ambulante e sei que meu silêncio não me tira dessa condição mas apenas deixa em pausa o barulho. Como um quarto que tocando heavy metal com a volumagem regulada em 00 parece o mais perfeito silêncio. Mesmo não sendo. Acho que a moça sorriu algum dia, não é possivel, ela não pode ter essa cara feia sempre porque eu também não estou sempre mau humorada e não sou sempre engraçada ou sorridente. Essa permanência é invenção utópica para agregar o conformismo. Imagino, então, que tenha furado o pneu do carro, atrasado o pagamento do décimo, comprado a passagem errada, visto mensagem indesejada no celular do marido, ou sei lá, qualquer aborrecimento cotidiano da vida moderna aos quais estamos sujeitos, como simplesmente acordar se sentindo um bosta. E eu, a menina que não sou nada além de um reboco tomando forma analiso como se paredes pudessem ouvir e como se olhos pudessem farejar.

Minha memória de peixe falhou e vivo como elefante resgatando nos fragmentos da cidade em que vivo e dos amores em que morro o cheiro da essência de baunilha do bolo mais fofo que comi. Na memória-de-peixe de tantos humanos assumo incontáveis formas e represento com maestria diversos papéis, negando sem pudor a estabilidade por achar que é redução e covardia.

Torcendo, sempre, para que todos os olhos me captem como estou que nada me diminua ao ponto de ser e que eu possa sempre enxergar com a dádiva de quem não entende mas interpreta.

Imagine Charlie and the sausage factory. Like Willie Wonka is just a crazed butcher and these kids are frantically opening packages of ground beef and Cahrlie, being extremely poor, opens a package of sausage (look up sausage before the FDA it's horrible) To find this golden ticket. They go into the room where they're told they can eat anything and it's just a giant pasture and they start biting cows and licking goats and Augustus gets sucked up the milking tube and Mike Teavee gets packaged in a fancy packaging machine and Veruga wants a prize pig but falls into the chute and violet eats a sausage link and can taste all the different meats and turns into a goose at the end and Charlie becomes the proud owner of a meat factory
