Met by the sudden realization that the Null/Void podcast universe takes place in Philly (or the ~ Philly metro area ~), Iâm now picturing the Void Networks building as that fucking godawful new Comcast juul-lookinâ building.
[image description = a screenshot of a script from Null/Void podcast, the character Niki is speaking and the script reads âSounds good to me. Hey, do you want to grab some Korean BBQ too? That place next to the Wawa?â The last sentence is highlighted in blue by the person who took the screenshot]

refining my cat Sif design and EEEEHHEHEHEHHEEEEEE I AM GIDDY HE IS SO FUN TO DRAW SO FAR
(gotta admit, I was. kinda baffled upon first finding out that Sif is several years older than me ejndsnjdnjsdjnsdnj) (also for anyone who sees this who doesnât know the game. we donât actually know Sifâs specific age iirc. we just know theyâre in their mid-late 20s)
[Image ID: A drawing depicting Artificer from Rain World, and a catified design of Siffrin from In Stars and Time. Arti lays a paw on Sifâs shoulder (her other arm is not visible), with a remark of âwawaâ which is translated as â(I think weâre gonna have to kill this guy, sharp-child)â. Sif, sitting and looking ahead with a deadpan expression, replies âIâm 27, Artiâ. End ID]

AM Elegant Bicorne - Regency Conversion Set pt. 3
This is a 2t4 conversion of Wawa's bicorne hat. Every swatch is based on a real European country from the 18th-19th century. Said swatches are all the ones of the original, except the Baden one which seemed to be identical to the Austria swatch. I really don't know a lot about military uniforms, but I guess that means you could use the Austrian bicorne for a Baden uniform as well.
Each swatch has a custom thumbnail that says what country's uniform it corresponds to (though I realize the text isn't super visible in CAS). I've attached all the thumbnails at the end of the post if you're curious. Now then!

Wawa!
Now for real tho, how did You manage the iterator cube in the first place, I think My computer would explode just being near half the polygons
Have a 3d scug as a treat tho
Waw!
The question can be interpreted in three ways.
Technical:
just... Pain...I have an old 7th gen Intel i7, 16 gigs of ram, and RTX 3060. The thing is. When It comes to meshes, or hard surfaces (the polygons) blender is actually very good at handling a lot of them. But guess what blender does NOT like. Clouds, textures and displacments. I did the details in the cube first, and then sufferd through the pain and lag of clouds and textures.
Render times don't increase with polygons. This many poligons render a 1080p image in 40 seconds. You just have to be smart about hiding stuff you don't need when editing.
I can send you the model. It's really not a huge problem.
Creating detail kind of technical:
well it is indeed hand made. It doesn't take long if you blender very aggressively with energetic music. The first wall took me, ~30-40 hours. The second is barely visible so just a copy of that with modifications. I premade greebles and assets that I have later scatterd. You can see I reused a lot of stuff. In the project I am currently working on it will be different. But in this one, I tried to follow the doctrine of hiding the flatness of the cube. So it doesn't look like a cube with stuff on it, with fairly decent results. Made some holes some structures etc.. The plugins that I used mostly are discombulator, blenders inbuilt panel gen. And we'll uh. That's Pretty much it. Made a geonodes modifier, for the pipes. So it's easier, so that's a thing.
And the rest is just me trying to be creative and stuff.
The "how do I come up where goes what"
I domnt funkin know.
I'm an engineer. And that means I solve pracital problems. Such as, will this pipe going from here to here make sense? Or does it make sense to make this thing here if there is another nearby? I can barely be called an artist, or creative for that matter. I can't draw like at all,I just get anxiety when I try, I can't make anything that is alive in blender. Like genuenly anything.(including scugs :<). I am pretty darn new to blender with barely even 1 k hours. I looked at references of Cappins (the creator of the original 3d model found in OE.) Model, I got some inspiration from there.
Here is his model.
And here is mine ( low quality because I don't have the original on my phone)
You can defenetly see the similarities. I took inspiration from a lot of the stuff on Cappins model. Unfortunately I for some reason never figured out that iterator cube is not a cube. It's a uh... Pancake shaped cube. What I also like a lot about Cappins model, is that it's very very well balanced. Perhaps some technical details are questionable but at that scale that can be ignored. I later talked with him. And he explained me the meaning of primary secondary and tertiary detail. Wich is actually very useful. Go google it if you draw or model. As for my model. I'm happy that people like it but I'm not happy how not canon it is compared to other iterators. Perhaps, it's an older model of an iterator. It took me nearly a third of the time cappin took to make his, that explains the quality difference. And we'll he had to start from scratch.
I hope that answers all the questions, otherwise ask again. It's not like I'm gonna go anywhere.
(also pls gimme de scug model if it's okay)

started drawing scugs in a sketchbook page and this happened instead oops
*pats top of slugcat* this animal can fit so much weird in it
(transcript and some corrections under the cut because there's a lot going on in this one and my handwriting is tiny lol)
[Image description/transcript: a bunch of slugcat biology doodling. Individual doodles/groups of doodles, clockwise from top left:
A slugcat with some visible internal organs sketched out and labeled - a heart and lungs, breathing holes at the sides of the neck (with the note: "wawas come from here!"), centrally placed vocal cords, beak "teeth", a pre-stomach pouch in the neck area, and intestines down in the lower torso and tail. The slugcat's eyes and a pair of small feelers above them are labeled: "both eyes!". A note above its head reads "feelers not 100% consistent in shape?"
A slightly clearer sketch of the possible lungs: there are two breathing holes, branching, and the vocal chords are located in the middle where they meet. The airways have internal closures to help keep out water and foreign material. A note reads "internal closure points [analogous to] glottis?", because I forgot the glottis was part of the vocal folds when I drew this.
Several drawings of possible beak and tooth arrangements, and a slugcat eating a fruit, touching the food with its sluggy mouth-feelers, with the note: "no tongue - feelers taste instead."
Closeup drawing of three eye variants. The first is all dark, pupil barely distinct from iris and sclera, labeled "normal". Second has lighter iris, labeled "rivulet". Third has white iris/sclera and light pupil, labeled "sm/hunter? (albinistic)". (I mean to write Artificer instead of Hunter. Whoops.)
Written notes: round pupils - poor night vision. Ancestors evolved to navigate more by smell/touch/etc before rain cycle forced other sensory focus (washes away scents).
Several doodles of possible slugcat ancestors. Most have shorter front limbs, longer feelers, and smaller eyes. Written notes: "early purposed ancestors - or primordial? arms shorter pre-bipedalism. probably related to lantern mice"
A slugpup, labeled "a little slupplet", and a tiny bean-like slugpup with closed eyes and tiny nubby limbs labeled "newborn baby scug".
Two organ cutaway doodles of slugcat tails. One, labeled "SM", has tubes from the stomach and intestines extending to the surface of the tail, one with a spear emerging out of it. The guts area has the note: "small stomach". The other tail, labeled "Arti", has intestines and several sacs connected to the underside of the tail, with the note: "scent/musk glands full of explosive digestive runoff?".
/end description.]
Anyway if you read all that bless you, my brain is full of rain world and it refuses to pay rent lol. I have a big old doc of headcanons and I can't do shit with most of them so I just doodle things apparently. bone appleteeth.
#a lot of this is very vague attempts to visualize my brain's scug bio headcanons lol#yes those eye notes would imply spearmaster's vision is godawful probably#all the other scugs get normal vision and spearmaster is seeing direct ingame footage. RIP#rainworld#rain world#slugcats#i kinda wanna tag specbio but i am extremely not a biologist and i did Not fully plan this out lol#not ready for that kinda scrutiny yknow#my art#sketches

i wanted to draw rain world scug headcanons but keep being busy and distracted with other stuff so ima write now, draw later >w<; readmore cuz it long
Survivor: -has a lot of small scars on body, but isn't normally visible -collects various items as a salvaging habit, and anthro form prefers clothes with a lot of pockets for this reason -becomes Gourmand's best disciple in crafting, makes simple tools and jewelry Monk: -has a couple bite scars from early taming attempts -makes accessories and trinkets from shed skin, feathers, and bones due to having a lot of that from spending time with lizards -the above details makes them look like a warrior or druid at first glance, but is an absolute sweetheart to everyone -brown spots like banana slug! Hunter: -doesn't properly reincarnate cuz the rot counts as another living being, so they're stuck together until one consumes the other -as such when Hunter is fully taken over, they finally reincarnate but all the way back from just before the rot fully develops, probably impairing their memory or setting them back at square one alternate artihunter angst -has scav-like mannerisms and a lot less graceful than other scugs -probably would've had an easy time befriending scavs if Artificer didn't make them terrified of red scugs Artificer: -it's popular to depict artificer as a punk- and i see why- but i see em as more of chancla mom, very affectionate and doting with other scugs but brutal towards perceived threats -single-handedly the core reason all scavs are nervous wrecks in the presence of scugpups -has accidentally launched themself or others after grooming due to forgetting their saliva is explosive, darker patches of fur are due to this -tries to parent 5P on the ways of the scug Gourmand: -dense like a pitbull, ripped underneath the chub, which makes them even heavier- and stronger- than they look -gets tired not because they're 'out of shape' but cuz they have to lift their own weight a lot with the usual scug acrobatics -can immobilize scugs, scavs, and smaller lizards just by loafing on top of them, uses this to put them in "time-out" -has an observable grasp on ancient technology and is trying to teach other scugs Rivulet: -actually not a scug but a convergent evolution that strongly resembles them, with a bunch of biological and behavioral differences but gets along well enough -extremely prone to zoomies, body-checks others by accident often -very physical with affection and curiosity, which overwhelms some but is v appreciated by those who appreciate it -impossible to keep a grip on, like a wet ferret Spearmaster: -tail is hard to the touch due to containing needle-producing organs rather than fat or muscle -longer/taller than most scugs but also very thin, giving them an unnatural stretched-out appearance, which paired with the lack of a mouth and the strange tail, gives other scugs an uncanny valley effect -rivulet is unaffected by this and loves climbing onto them -can in fact wawa but it sounds creepy coming out of the tail vents -scugs have a gestural language for stealth 'talking', Spearmaster learns it and ends up improvising new signs to expand the language -teaches scugpups how to draw when they meet packs that don't mind their appearance Saint: -actually one of the younger scugs, but acts like a weary old man anyway due to what they've been through and also to try seem wiser and cooler -almost as zoomie-prone as rivulet and gets goofy with tongue acrobatics, but immediately pretends nothing happened if another scug catches them in the act -the floof is solely because SOS finds it cute -does the scrunge face when they tongue-grab something unpleasant -has attempted to use Enot's eggs to break the cycle. seems that didn't go according to plan... -seems to act as Monk's mentor but Monk helps them more
Nightcat: -literally just an ordinary scug besides the fur color, is basically the normie neighbor to the other scugs, always around but never got involved with the iterators or any big events -possibly the un-altered enot... nah, i'm sure it's a coincidence. Enot/INV/???: -despite obviously being a purposed organism, there are no records or knowledge of their existence -probs an attempt to destroy the karma cycle, but they destabilize it instead, causing unpredictable changes and probably causing alternate realities -bizarre personality and overly affectionate antics either due to loose grasp on reality or being unable to keep a consistent relationship between fluctuating timelines/realities -pretty hush on what the other timelines are like since it causes awkward situations, but couldn't resist telling 5P about Five Pebbsi, the catboy outfit, and various other embarrassing details. 5P killed them on the spot for it. worth it. -Saint seems to know about them but won't elaborate why or how
most of it's lame but wanted to say anyway bweh

LAST TRAIN AT 25 O'CLOCK
ft. bachira meguru summary : when two young lovers miss their last train. note : my first post on this blog wawa!! hope u guys like it !! kinda short bc i wrote it out in a rush.. whoops .. wc : 716
masterlist
You and I were standing together in the silence that accompanied 25:00.
It was silent, unbearably so. You and Meguru had just missed the last train, just by a split second, and now you were here, standing around the train station in the middle of a cold, winter night.
The white mist of your sigh looked cold in the dim fluorescent lights casting shadows.
"I told you not to wait for me," You huffed out, your breath visible as white mist.
Meguru could only pout, "I didn't want to go home alone." He whined, much like a child. The silence came crawling back, and Meguru didn't like it.
"C'mon, let's go somewhere instead of just standing around, yeah?" Without giving you time to respond, he grasped your gloved hand in his, dragging you away. "W-Wait, Megu! What if we miss the next train?" You breathed out, struggling to pull yourself back from the athlete. Meguru could only smile in response, "We can just grab a taxi! For now, let's not waste this moment."
When you look up, a meteor blinks out beyond your line of sight.
The streets of tokyo were still lit up, despite it being well past midnight. It was silent, though, with few people being out on the streets, almost none, actually â the two of you had only passed by a couple of people while you were out and about.
"All the shops are closed. What are we gonna do here, exactly?" You questioned, adjusting your scarf that had been thrown out of it's previous, neat shape that you'd put it in before. "We're not going to go shopping, silly." Meguru chuckled, dragging you again, across the street, this time.
"Please don't tell me you want to go down the slides." You groaned, catching sight of the children's park, that was unsurprisingly empty.
"No, look." He nudged your side, looking up, which prompted you to do the same.
It was dark, as it should be. Only, it was littered with small white dots that glimmered in contrast to the darkness of the night sky. One moves through the sea of stars, shining brighter than its peers.
"(y/n)! make a wish!" Meguru clasped his hands, closing his eyes.
A monochrome cityscape under the small night sky
"What wish did you make?" You looked up at him, after he'd opened his eyes. "I'm not going to tell you, it wouldn't come true, then." He grinned, sitting next to you on the park bench.
Has the view always been this pretty? You should know, you've been here multiple times, passing this place when you'd gone to or from work.
"It's beautiful, don't you think?" Meguru took notice of your dazed look, smiling softly at you, in comparison to his boyish grin earlier. "It is." You hummed in agreement.
If we hold hands and look up at the starry sky, you and I will fly alone through the night.
You felt another hand take hold of your own.
Looking down, you see Meguru's hand atop of yours, providing your hand with an ounce of warmth.
"So, what'd you think of today's outing, hm?" Meguru nudged you again. Your eyes were half lidded by now, the exhaustion from a day's worth of work catching up to you. "Mm... I like it," You leaned your head on his shoulder, to which he reciprocated, placing his chin on top of yours. "I like spending time with you." You finished, another long breath leaving your lips.
It was silent for a while, and you're not sure if Meguru had heard you. But it didn't matter, all you could think of was sleep at that moment.
The two of us under the cold sky.
You were well into dreamland when Meguru had called a taxi. You woke up at some point through, but went back to sleep just as fast.
"I like spending time with you too."
You would've thought you were dreaming if you hadn't felt the warmth of his arms holding you as he placed a gentle kiss onto your forehead.

Well today did not go absolutely according to plan. But thankfully it was not as off the rails as yesterday was. It was a better day even if it didn't work out perfectly.
I slept alright. I slept in a bit and when I woke up I felt pretty good. I am glad I was able to get some good sleep. It let me be very productive today.
I started by taking a shower. I wanted to wash my hair and then I would perk my eyelashes. I had to time everything well if Naomi and Kim were coming at 1.
I felt pretty good. I was very clean and decided I would get dressed before I did my eyelashes.
I just wanted to be cozy. I love this long sweater dress and it was pretty perfect for this grey and foggy day.
I would set up on the bathroom floor and do my eyelashes the left eye went poorly like it does every time. But I got them done at the same time and not doing one eye and then the other. I over curled my left eye though and I hope it calms down a bit but that's okay. I'm still happy with my progress in learning to do this. I get better at the application every time, but it is a hard thing! So weird.
After I finished that and cleaned up I worked on cleaning the apartment. I changed the kitty litter and vacuumed. Moved some stuff around and started preparing the house to have people over.
I went to check my phone and Kim texted me that they were sick and would have to reschedule. Not a big deal. We will find another time.
Well now it wasn't even now and I had a clean apartment and hours with no plan. So I decided to finish cleaning up the apartment and then I would go out into the world.
I haven't been to savers in forever. I decided that would be a fun trip. So I would make that drive. Which kind of sucked because people can't drive in fog and were acting stupid even though visibility was fine.
I enjoyed my music and the drive despite others, and made it to savers in one piece.
And it was an awesome trip. I got a grab bag with three wedgewood plates for $4. I got a deck of vintage playing cards with ducks on them. I got a gift for someone.
I wasn't exactly planning on looking at clothes. But I did and I had some awesome finds. I got two jumpsuits that are skin tight and will be amazing for layering and keeping warm. I got a soft Tshirt dress. I got a beautiful tea dress that has tie straps and I love.
But the big find. The prize of the day. I found a LL Bean long coat. For $12. I am so beyond thrilled. I love a long coat but they tend to be overwhelming because I'm short but this one is so so perfect. I'm thrilled.
I was all excited and happy with my new jacket. I looked around for a little longer but nothing was topping that.
I finished looking there and paid and headed out. Onto the next one.
I went down the street to hit up the goodwill there. I found a few more gifts there. And a new picnic basket with a lid. Some frames for gifts. It was so good time.
I went back to the car and drove to Marshalls to look for sweater tights. No such luck. And I got very very tempted by leather purses. That I do not need but I will continue to think about.
I walked over to target next. Where I did find the sweater tights I wanted. I also got the hair stuff James needed and some holiday deodorants. Then I wandered around for a while.
The lines were very long so I decided I would just get in that now. And it did take a while but it was whatever. I paid and went back into the world.
When I got to the car I checked in with James and decided I would get a sandwich and then go to the museum and after they were done we would go look at the two houses.
And this worked out great. I went and got Wawa. I got a little sandwich and ate in the car. And then went to find my husband.
The drive back was kind of rough. There was an accident on the ramp to the highway so I had to go a different way and the gps took me all around the beltway which was bizarre. But I got to James before 4.
I enjoyed sitting with James while they finished up there day. I chatted with Phil for a bit. And told James about the day. It was nice. I enjoyed being at the museum.
James would finish up and load up the bike on the car and we were off.
We saw two houses and neither were amazing. The first one was another blue house. And it has potential but it makes more sense now why there were no photos on the listing. This was rough. It was still occupied and the woman was nice but this place was a mess. The carpets were disgusting. There were bones in the basement. Of a rodent probably. Everything just seemed dirty. But the real issue was the smell. The owner has poured spearmint oil on everything. The smell was so strong my eyes and nose burned. It was clear she was covering something up. But man. It was tough.
We were all in agreement that this was not the palace. Even at the price, it would need so much work it wasn't worth it for us.
So to the next one. This one was as far away as we were comfortable with. And it was cute. But this one also had basement water damage and clearly there had been a grease fire in the kitchen. I loved so many parts of it, but we decided that it just wasn't going to work out. We had a good conversation with Harold about first time home buyers. And it turns out we see his first first time home buyers! So he is learning a lot too. He would send us a few more to look at and we might go see those tomorrow. Exciting. I'm glad he's trying to hard for us. It is a big ask.
We would head home and soon Callie was coming over! I was so glad to see her. James would make us quesadillas which was so nice of them. Me and Callie went over my camp schedule and she pointed out a few things I can fix up. And we just talked about camp nonsense. Hopes and dreams for next summer. It was just so nice hanging out with me friend.
We talked about other stuff to. Life. People. Diagnoses. We talked about the upcoming Christmas party at camp. And the drama around that. Im so glad she came over.
She would leave around 930. And I would spend some time trying in my new things. And it was a good evening.
I am cleaned up and in my jammies now. I'm going to get ready to sleep now. Tomorrow is another busy day.
But only a little. I have to get an x-ray and I get my injections. We might see houses. I'm looking forward to being with James. It will be a good day.
I hope you all sleep well tonight. Take care of yourselves and be safe. I love you all!

(baby steps) omg if it's 70s e when he's better imagine e just hugging us and he's like "my mama" and we get back on stage with e we visibly see some other littles shrink or be intimidated and we're like "oh don't worry, he's not bad. he's just cranky right now, don't worry" and it's funny bc e is big so people mistake him for being rougj but hes such a sweetheart and gentle.
with wanda was the same but he actually pushed littles and was like "wawa" bc he was so close to wanda and wanda is like "elvis don't push" bc he is also strong
E is cranky and oddly protective of his mama and he definitely intimidates other littles. He can't help it though. He's such a teddy bear uuuugh You've seen him be rough a few times during his tantrums but only once he's comfortable and you've always told him "hey use nice hands" and waited for him to ride the big emotion out until you can get him focused on something else

I'MA DO IT
When gogart found out about the 12 Lost Cookie's fall, they were worried, but when they heard ALMOND was one their heart almost stopped from shock. They were visibly shaking, saying they needed a moment alone, the abrupt sound of them crying could be heard in the other room
When Wawa heard she was beyond shocked. She was confused and so many questions and worries filled her head and she probs cried as well. she made it her mission to find out what exactly happened and tried to do everything she could to find almond
(ANGST ANGST)
YAAA YIPPEE ANGST

Iâve got a thought? experience? Thingâ˘? thatâs been kicking around in my brain for a few months, and it wonât exit my constant thoughts unless I write it out, so
Context:
Iâm neurodivergent, most definitely autistic, possibly also got ADHD (or ADD?? idk). I have been highly aware of and also completely unaware of this for most of my life.
Iâm also queer, aspec, trans, gender-fluid/non-binary. I have also been highly aware of and completely unaware of this for most of my life, though I will admit the whole aspec thing I figured out a while ago (thanks internet).
All this is to say that Iâve always noticed how people look at and act around me, and the differences between how they act around others and how they act around me. When Iâd get excited talking about something I like, people would look at me with the same weirded-out look everyone does. Shared glances in a Wawa while I try to unzip my wallet. Silence when I donât understand the joke.
Itâs a strange feeling now, being openly and visibly queer, walking around and knowing that Iâm being stared at for my odd fashion sense or the pronoun pin on my vest or my haircut and not for being the strange little neurodivergent kid who doesnât know what theyâre doing.
idk
something something trans queer neurodivergent joy
#this is basically just a little ramble but I hope someone else gets it#Iâve just become acutely aware of how people perceive me and#I think I like#little queer person#more than#eh that weird kid#ya know?#queer#lgbtq#nuerodiversity#nuerospicy#nuerodivergent#autistic adult#autism#asd#autistic#adhd#gay#oh and by highly aware & unaware at the same time I mean I didnât know what it was but I knew something was different

Clouds
Clouds: found in the footnotes as passed down by Nathaniel B. Emerson, Pele and Hiiaka, A Myth From Hawaii, 1915.
(4) Ilio-uli,, literally, a dog of dark blue-black color.
(g) Ale ula, a cloud of steam and smoke, such as accompanied an eruption.
(ft) Ale lani, the patches of blue sky between masses of clouds.
(j) Ma-u, literally, damp; the name of the wife of Maka-li'i, as here indicated. Maka-li'i, here used as the name of a deity, is also, 1. the name of the Pleiades ; 2. the name of the month in which that constellation rises at the time of sunset; 3. the name sometimes applied to the six summer months collectively. The visible sign of Makali'i, as a deity or kupua, was a rain cloud.
(a) Haupu, a famous hill on Kauai, visible from Oahu. When it was capped with a cloud, Hawaiians said, "Ua kau mai ka pua'a i Haupu e ua ana." If that occurred in the rainy season, they said it was about to clear.
(b) Waha, the same as haawe, i.e., a load for the back. In this case it was a bank of mist or clouds.
(c) Ke-olewa, a hill, smaller than Haupu, on the side towards Kipu-kai. The word also applied to the floating clouds about the mountain.
(32) Haili-opua, the name of a deity. It means the piling-up of cloud portents.
(40) Ka-o-mea-lani, a god of rain. He indicated his presence by piling up volumes of white clouds.
(a) Wawae-nohu, the name given to a red cloud seen at sunset in thewest from Mana, Kauai.
(d) Uli. In this connection the word means black. Ilio is a cloud.
(e) Mea, yellow. Ilio mea, a yellow cloud.
(f) Ku-ke-ao-iki, a form of the god Ku, a small cloudâhand-sizeâ that grew and grew until it became ominous and seemed to fill the heavens.
(g) Ku-ke-ao-loa, a cloud-omen grown to full size.
(h) Ku-ke-ao-poko, said to be a cloud that Quickly dissolved Itself in rain.
(i) Ku-ke-ao-apihapiha, a sky full of small clouds, probably the same as our "mackerel sky." All these different kinds of clouds are forms inwhich Ku showed himself.
(c) Uli-uli o ka lani, the slaty-blue clouds, here appealed to as kupua,beings possessed of power for good or ill.
(d) Uli-mea, a white cloud (cumulus).
(e) Uli-ehu, a cloud having a ruddy tint from the light of the sun.
(f) Ku-ke-ao-iki, clouds broken up into small fragments, like ourmackerel sky.
(g) Ku-ke-ao-loa, the long stratus clouds, here represented as an embodiment of Ku.
(h) Ku-ke-ao-poko, a small compact cloud standing detached from itsfellows.
(a) Ilio, dog. It is explained that the meaning covered by this figure is a storm-cloud and that the stripping off of its garment. wehe....i kona kapa, meant its breakup into the fleecy white clouds of fair weather. It seems that if the head of this cloud-dog pointed to the west it meant rain, if to the east, fair weather.
(h) Kaha-ula, the goddess who presided over erotic dreams.

The Ceremony (Dream)
The CeremonyÂ
I was riding in a car with my family members and although I do not remember where our destination was, we drove past the store building that I had just got. The store was empty and I only had my shop sign name mounted up. The logo font was similar to Marshallâs and started with an âMâ except I cannot remember the exact name that it said. I was so excited and it felt so surreal to see. We kept driving and as it got dark, my dad got sleepy. Everyone also got out of the car except for one other female family member. Iâm not sure if it was my sister or grandma with me. He parked the car in a parking lot and I looked out the window. There was a small Wawa right next door and I was hungry, but it looked closed and the lights were off. I was contemplating going to inspect it, then I heard a screeching car. I looked back out the same left window and watched a dark colored car race through the lot, driving wildly past us, then coming to repeated harsh stops. I couldnât see who the driver was or if anyone else was in the car. It kept making sharp turns and stops, like some were just learning how to drive or someone impaired was operating the vehicle. Then, suddenly an animal ran up and jumped up on the roof of the car. It looked like a black horse. We had no idea what was going on. The next day was bright and sunny as it was the day before. My family and I were headed towards some sort of event. I believe it was a graduation ceremony because there were sooo many people and other students and parents. I had walked in with a casual outfit on and planned to change clothes after a shower. My family went to choose a seat and I headed towards where the showers were for my age group. Interestingly, both guys and ladies were using the same showers and locker rooms. I donât know if that was allowed or not, but no one had come to tell us otherwise. Once in there, I began conversing with a few different people. Specifically, I started speaking with this one guy. He was light skin and caramel-colored with moisturized curly hair in a small fro. He was handsome and on the slimmer side body type wise. We were talking about what we were graduating for and began to flirt a bit. We also discovered that we had some similar interests. He also had a friend with him, another handsome white guy. The white boy was also slim, with a bit more muscle. I figured that they must play a sport together. I spoke with the both of them briefly until me and the light skin began to talk alone again. He wanted to mess around and I informed him of the risk he may have. He was surprised and visibly conflicted, but still willing. We had sex, then when we were done, he went to sit and wait outside the bathroom with his friend. Soon after, it was my turn to shower. Then I went inside and the white boy came back inside with me. He flirted like the first guy did and told me a bit about himself. Somehow we began kissing in the shower and he undressed. I was already undressed. We also had sex. But I made a mistake that I immediately thought about afterwards. I looked at him and covered my mouth in worry. Concerned, he asked me what was wrong. I said I didnât tell you something that was important. But before I could say it he simply said âoh yeah.. damn I forgot about that and he told me.â Confused, I questioned him. âHe told you?â And he nodded his head. He was not mad though. He left to go change and I didnât have my change of clothes at all. So I wrapped a towel around me and went to search for my family. I found them almost immediately and informed them that they could unlock the car and bring me my change of clothes and they agreed. Once they finished socializing, my dad went to get it. I stayed there sitting with my grandma for a few minutes as (Deenaâs?) family walked by in a single-file line down the aisle. They had an extra girl with them. She was tall, chubby, and lightskin. My grandma recognized her though. She said âoh no, did you manipulate Koi into coming?â The mysterious girl heard her as they walked by, she looked at us and just nodded her head and kept walking. My grandma started to get up, I guess to confront her. I wondered how she even knew her.

Tuesday, day 3 of our journey, we were on the road again at 8.20am still heading North through Lake Superior Provincial Park. The climbs up the hills were longer and harder on Tassie (the motorhome) and so it was hard to maintain a steady speed and deal with what were now severe cross winds. We had planned to stop at Wawa for Breakfast but got confused at the turnoff and kept on going to stop a short while later at a pull in for breakfast. It was 10.00am. Onward again and we ran into heavy rain between White River and Marathon (not Snickers (-: ) which then became low cloud as we climbed which made visibility terrible and slow progress. We found a viewpoint to stop for lunch just after Rossport at around 2.00pm, but with the rain and the low cloud we could see nothing much! The drive in these conditions was very difficult and the weather stayed with us just as we got to Nipigon. We had decided to try and reach Thunder Bay before our next stop, so we pushed on through major road construction, stop and go and had to make a quick splash and dash of fuel on the outskirts of Thunder Bay. Camping was hard to find and we discovered that all the Walmarts were in large Malls so no overnighting there. So it was on through to a Municipal Park west of the city down a terrible road through a First Nations Res. Eventually got the re got checked and had the levelling done and the slide outs extended to find that when we plugged in there was no power. Tried two other sites and still no power so it was a case of accept what we had. It had been a long and tiring day and I didn't want to drive any further.
So today we had travelled 399 miles, bringing our total to 1004 miles since leaving home. Tired, ready to rest up and have a beer!
WESTWARD 2024
As you may already know we are heading away on another adventure. This time it is travelling West in our RV. We will be leaving on Sunday morning and will try to provide you some info on where we are and what we have been up to as we travel. Hopefully you will enjoy the trip with us!

old comic from last year that i never got around to finishing bc it was finals, plushyuta and plushrayfa were distracting me from studying and now they are taking over my brain once again <3
[id: A four-page comic featuring Nahyuta Sahdmadhi, Rayfa Padma Khuraâin and Apollo Justice. All pages follow the pattern of having a white border and a yellow background for each panel, the first page is in full-colour and the remaining pages have the characters in grayscale.
Nahyuta is wearing a yellow sweatshirt with a collared shirt, green pants, and black slippers. Their hair is tied back in a low ponytail. Rayfa is shown wearing a white shirt with green sleeves. Her hair is untied. Apollo is wearing a hoodie and sweatpants with a visible patch on the shoulder.]
Transcript under cut:
Page 1:
1st panel - Nahyuta appears to be preoccupied with work. Rayfa is talking, and her words are indecipherable at first until she calls for Nahyuta.
Rayfa: Oh, yeah, Horn Head would like to talk to you. Go see him. Nahyuta: Iâll be there, give me a moment.
2nd panel - Nahyuta is tapping a pen on their chin, and their eyes are furrowed. âHmmâŚâ they mumble. On the bottom corner of the panel are exclamation marks, a noise trying to catch Nahyutaâs attention.
3rd panel - Nahyuta looks behind, towards the source of the noise. âWawa. Wa,â the âsourceâ cries out.
4th panel - A small plush toy version of Nahyuta has appeared, tugging on Nahyutaâs pant leg. The plushie, despite having a permanent smile, is upset and in tears. It sobs, âUeue. Ueueue.â
Page 2:
1 panel - A shocked Nahyuta jumps back from the plushie, an arm shielding them. Behind them is an equally surprised Rayfa, with a plushie version of her on her head. The Rayfa plushie has a commanding expression. Rayfaâs hand is raised up to cover her mouth.
Nahyuta: W-woah.
Page 3:
1st panel - A distraught Nahyuta appears from a wall on the left side of the panel while Apollo peaks his head from the bottom right.
Nahyuta: A-Apollo, I must ask you something.
âOh, hey,â Apollo responds.
2nd panel - The Nahyuta plushie is hanging onto Nahyutaâs left shoulder. Nahyuta is poking the plushâs hand as they speak.
Nahyuta: This little one has decided to imprint on me and⌠Nahyuta: I donât know what to do about it⌠Nahyuta: Itâs so small but terrifying.
The plushie looks blankly at Nahyuta with its permanent smile and 'mumbles', âI hold the key to the secrets of the universe in my hands, mere mortal. Gaze into my eyes and you shall see that the wisdom burns within m-â The text cuts off from this point.
Page 4:
1st panel - Apollo looks back at Nahyuta. Compared to Nahyutaâs stressed state, Apollo is unfazed and enthusiastic.
Apollo: Ah!! Yeah, a Marketable Plushie!! Nahyuta: Marketa- what? Apollo: You are now cursed. Nahyuta: WHAT???
2nd panel - As Apollo explains the situation, five plushie versions of him suddenly appear, crawling up his arms, head, and one wearing a magician's hat sprouting from his hoodie pocket.
Apollo: Oh, theyâre a pesky bunch but youâll get used to âem, they are cute. Apollo: Mr. Wright and Trucy have a lot of them. Trucy keeps them all in her hat I think? A screaming Nahyuta: WHERE DID THEY EVEN COME FROM, WHAT???!
end id.]
