It was a braw, bright October morning, but with a keen, penetrating wind from the north-east: a day which was undeniably lovely to look at, but not quite so delightful to be out and about in, with the temperature allowing for wind chill only around a raw 5 or 6 degrees celsius…

But if there is one thing that any resident of the Highlands – or indeed the bitter east coast of Scotland – learns before anything else, it is to find themselves a nice wee sheltered spot out of the wind on a day such as this. So Algy did exactly that, tucking himself down comfortably among the fading clumps of heather on the banks of the burn, in the shelter of a gorse thicket which had grown to a consdierable size since he last visited this spot, no doubt owing to an abundance of rain throughout the summer.

Having solved the problem of how to convey the water to those of his friends overseas who were suffering excessive heat and drought, Algy turned his thoughts to other friends, who today were fleeing from the ravages of a hurricane. But alas, there was little that a fluffy bird could do in the face of the wind, as he knew only too well. And although the winds on the wild west coast of the Scottish Highlands were frequently much too strong for comfort, Algy knew that they were nevertheless mild compared with the ferocity of a tropical storm or hurricane which could tear apart any fluffy bird who attempted to stand in its way. He could only hope that the humans who were facing such winds today would manage to find a sheltered spot, just as he had done:

There came a Wind like a Bugle - It quivered through the Grass And a Green Chill upon the Heat So ominous did pass We barred the Windows and the Doors As from an Emerald Ghost - The Doom's electric Moccasin The very instant passed - On a strange Mob of panting Trees And Fences fled away And Rivers where the Houses ran Those looked that lived - that Day - The Bell within the steeple wild The flying tidings told - How much can come And much can go, And yet abide the World!

[Algy is quoting the poem There came a Wind like a Bugle by the 19th century American poet Emily Dickinson.]

Hi TG Fandom!

A little blurb I couldn’t get out of my head: 🤷

The stormy night before the mission, after they've just had their last round of mind-blowing reunion sex and Bradley is sleeping soundly against his chest — Jake tells him a story. 

He never talks about where he grew up, about his childhood. He still doesn't, but he shares a tiny piece of himself with a sleeping Bradley, who can't judge him for it.

“My mother’s name was Susie Wind, before she married my father and became a Seresin.” He pauses, biting his lip, because that isn't fair — not to her, not really. “My mother’s name was Beswewe, it means Echo Maker. When she was a baby, as I've been told, she used to mimic the sounds of the sandhill cranes that nested on the lake they lived beside. My grandparents were already elders when they had her, their little miracle. She was born on Gaa-waabaabiganikaag, the White Earth reservation, and my father took her away from them. She thought she loved him, but she was just a girl. By the time she realized the monster he was — there was me.” 

Bradley snuffles in his sleep, squirming closer, as if the pitter-patter of Jake’s tears on the sheets is enough to disturb him. “My grandfather named me, you know. He left the rez one night after I was born, the night of a really bad storm, and he used it as cover to sneak up to our shed. My mother was waiting there, wet and wild in the darkness, certain that my father would be close behind her and she hurriedly gave my grandfather the tobacco he needed to name me. Baashkikwa’am, it means He Who Brings Thunder.” 

The storm outside rages on, not unlike the storm that brought him into the world, and Jake smiles, wobbly and tearful. “When my mother was dying, she told me a story and it means that I'm going to ask you for a favor. I don't expect you to remember any of this, Bradshaw, but I’ll leave a note and if you love me, or if you ever did: bury me with moccasins on my feet. I have them… tucked into a box. I've had them since my first deployment. I need you to bury me as soon as possible in those, if I die tomorrow. So that when I walk through the lands of my ancestors, Gaagige Minawaanigozigiwining: the land of everlasting happiness, they will know my footprints. Then, you have to take the charcoal in the box and smudge it all over your face, so the death doesn't take you too. Sometimes, it gets confused.” 

Jake then curls his body around Bradley’s, dragging up the blankets to cocoon them both in the warmth for as long as he possibly can.

In the rugged plains of South Dakota, where the wind carried tales of old and the earth held the memories of ancestors, there lived a girl named Wa-Ka-Cha-Sha. Her name meant Red Rose, a testament to her Lakota heritage passed down from her mother, who herself was a daughter of the plains.

Wa-Ka-Cha-Sha's story began at a crossroads of cultures. Her father, a white man of European descent, had come to the territory seeking adventure and fortune. It was during his travels that he met her mother, a woman of grace and resilience, who captured his heart with her wisdom and deep connection to the land ...

From a young age, Wa-Ka-Cha-Sha embraced both sides of her lineage. Her father taught her the ways of the settlers: reading from books, navigating the world of letters and numbers, and sharing stories of distant lands beyond the horizon. Her mother, on the other hand, instilled in her the traditions of the Lakota people: the art of storytelling, the reverence for nature, and the songs that echoed through the ages ...

As Wa-Ka-Cha-Sha grew, so did her curiosity about her dual heritage. She loved to roam the plains, feeling the pulse of the earth beneath her moccasins, and listening to the whispers of the wind that carried the spirits of her ancestors. Her mother taught her the language of the Lakota, and together they would gather herbs and berries, weaving them into baskets adorned with intricate patterns that told stories of abundance and gratitude.

One fateful day, a scout from Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show stumbled upon their camp. Intrigued by Wa-Ka-Cha-Sha's striking features and her natural grace, he invited her to join the spectacle that toured the country, showcasing the life and culture of the frontier. Despite initial hesitation, her mother saw an opportunity for her daughter to bridge the gap between worlds, to share the beauty and resilience of their people with those who knew little of their ways.

Wa-Ka-Cha-Sha's debut was met with awe and admiration. Dressed in traditional regalia adorned with beads and feathers, she danced with the spirit of her ancestors, her movements telling stories of hunting buffalo on the plains, of celebrating victories and mourning losses. Her voice carried melodies that spoke of love and longing, of hope and resilience.

As she traveled with the Wild West Show, Wa-Ka-Cha-Sha became a symbol of cultural pride and unity. Audiences marveled at her performances, not just for their entertainment value but for the deeper understanding they imparted about the Lakota way of life. Through her, they saw the strength and dignity of a people who had endured adversity and continued to thrive.

Yet, amid the applause and admiration, Wa-Ka-Cha-Sha remained grounded in her roots. She wrote letters to her mother in their native tongue, sharing stories of the places they visited and the people they met. She spoke of the challenges of being caught between two worlds, of the longing to belong fully to both yet realizing the beauty in her unique identity.

Years passed, and Wa-Ka-Cha-Sha's fame spread far and wide. She became an ambassador of peace and understanding, using her platform to advocate for the rights of Native peoples and to bridge the gap between cultures. Her performances continued to inspire generations, reminding them of the importance of respecting and preserving diverse traditions.

Wa-Ka-Cha-Sha, Red Rose of the plains, lived a life that bloomed with courage and compassion. Her legacy, like the petals of a red rose unfurling in the morning sun, continues to touch hearts and minds, reminding us of the power of embracing our differences and celebrating our shared humanity.

It seems to be portrayed as having fairly warm weather . . . but as large as it is, does it have regions of varying weather patterns? And in a similar vein, are there various areas of diverse vegetation/fauna?”

••••••

In short, yes. I live in West Texas and mom in Southeast (about 500 or so miles apart), and we can have essentially two seasons. It can rain there and be bone dry here, and sometimes in the winter she asks me the temp so she can prepare the next day.

And it’s no exaggeration some parts of the state you can experience at least 3 seasons in the same day. I’m personally lucky in that I seem to have adapted to this particularly go here, which it’s frequent 2 seasons a day right now, but I get funny looks being in short sleeves in cooler weather because of it.

•••••••

Vegetation/fauna is definitely diverse. If I travel from home to Mom’s, in that 8 hour drive I go from:

• a flat area where most trees that aren’t mesquite were planted by settlers (you can tell where a house is/was based on clusters of trees), that grows cotton and feed if they aren’t an oil town

• area with mesas and wind turbines after leaving the Caprock, another ironically heavier oil area. The turbines are increasing to the point I joke they’re “Don Quixote’s nightmare.

• areas with thicker areas of trees that are shorter, oddly at times more prickly pear cactus, and bigger cities,

(This varies if I take the longer route - uncommon but I will in December to run a different St. Jude race - through Boerne/San Antonio where you go through the mesas and rolling plains again in the middle of the state, and unfortunately experience 40 mins. of cell phone dead zone. It’s bad to the point it’s LEGAL to go 80 mph to get through it)

• heavily wooded area and gentle hills.

And then if we go to Galveston or Corpus Christi there’s some marshy areas and then the coast.

The marshiest area is around La Porte I think, which is where the battle of San Jacinto was and the Texas fighters used this to an advantage.

••••••

Wildlife varies. I see more wild turkey and pheasant here than east coast. I’ve seen a few roadrunners but they seem more prevalent in the Palo Duro Canyon.

Prairie dogs are far more common in west Texas. Amarillo’s minor league team’s mascot is Sodpoodles (a nickname) and Lubbock has one park dedicated to the black tail prairie dogs.

Anyone watching them I’d say don’t walk close: their town system underground makes it dangerous to walk lest you fall through a hole.

I definitely see more deer near moms along with raccoons. Skunks more often here: in the summer I must walk the cemetery in full daylight, not dusk as they seem to like living there more. (Just clarifying for folks: where I am the cemetery is the safest place to walk due to bad traffic and has a very high visibility).

Snakes are definitely a big issue all around. For the poisonous ones, West Texas more rattlers and coral while East copperheads and water moccasins (though up here we’ll see some copperheads).

Coast we see a lot of sea turtles nest there, particularly Kemp Ridley. There’s a lot of hatching ceremonies in the year where the state protects the turtles until they waddle into the Gulf to give them a fighting chance to survive.

I’m sure there’s even more than this, but it’s more of I’ve experienced here

Thanks for the ask.

Is it cold outside? // LMK Animatic

Yay! I did it! New animatic slide-show 😘😘😘 I already have an animatic with Behemoth, but I decided to slightly change my hairstyle (and boots. I love moccasins so much). Now, I don't have slicked back hair, but... I don't know, a mushroom hairstyle? 😄😄

Context:

On their next trip outside the Megalopolis, the Monkey Kid team stops at some temple to rest. While everyone is making themselves more comfortable, TanyaG decides that taking walk through dangerous mountains where demons may be hiding is a great idea. As a result, she falls into some cave right into the lair of the Behemoth. After the death of Lady Bone Demon, the Mystic Mayor went a bit wild and became a restless soul (obviously losing his humanity).

Few of my favorite footage(?):

Yes, it's myself. And you can't stop me. 😈

Traditionally, the people now known as Cherokee refer to themselves as Aniyunwiya (ah nee yun wee yah), a name usually translated as "the Real People," sometimes "the Original People."

▪The Cherokee never had princesses. This is a concept based on European folktales and has no reality in Cherokee history and culture. In fact, Cherokee women were very powerful. They owned all the houses and fields, and they could marry and divorce as they pleased. Kinship was determined through the mother's line.

Clan mothers administered justice in many matters. Beloved women were very special women chosen for their outstanding qualities. As in other aspects of Cherokee culture, there was a balance of power between men and women. Although they had different roles, they both were valued.

▪The Cherokee never lived in tipis. Only the nomadic Plains tribes did. The Cherokee were southeastern woodland natives, and in the winter they lived in houses made of woven saplings, plastered with mud and roofed with poplar bark. In the summer they lived in open-air dwellings roofed with bark.

▪The Cherokee have never worn feathered headdresses except to please tourists. These long headdresses were worn by Plains Natives and were made popular through Wild West shows and Hollywood movies. Cherokee men traditionally wore a feather or two tied at the crown of the head. In the early 18th century, Cherokee men wore cotton trade shirts, loincloths, leggings, front-seam moccasins, finger-woven or beaded belts, multiple pierced earrings around the rim of the ear, and a blanket over one shoulder. At that time, Cherokee women wore mantles of leather or feathers, skirts of leather or woven mulberry bark, front-seam moccasins, and earrings pierced through the earlobe only. By the end of the 18th century, Cherokee men were dressing much like their white neighbors. Men were wearing shirts, pants, and trade coats, with a distinctly Cherokee turban. Women were wearing calico skirts, blouses, and shawls. Today Cherokee people dress like other Americans, except for special occasions, when the men wear ribbon shirts with jeans and moccasins, and the women wear tear dresses with corn beads, woven belts, and moccasins.

▪The Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians (EBCI) are descended from Cherokee people who had taken land under the Treaty of 1819 and were allowed to remain in North Carolina; from those who hid in the woods and mountains until the U.S. Army left; and from those who turned around and walked back from Oklahoma. By 1850 they numbered almost a thousand. Today the Eastern Band includes about 11,000 members, while the Cherokee Nation in Oklahoma claims more than 100,000 members, making the Cherokee the largest tribe in the United States.

▪Cherokee arts and crafts are still practiced: basket-weaving, pottery, carving, finger-weaving, and beadwork.

▪The Cherokee language is spoken as a first language by fewer than a thousand people and has declined rapidly because of the policies of federally operated schools. However, since the tribe has begun operation of their own schools, Cherokee language is being systematically taught in the schools.

▪Traditional Cherokee medicine, religion, and dance are practiced privately.

▪There have never been Cherokee shamans. Shamanism is a foreign concept to North America. The Cherokee have medicine men and women.

▪"aho" is not a Cherokee word and Cherokee speakers never use it. Most are actually offended by the misuse of this word. It's not some kind of universal Native word used by all tribes, as many believe. Each individual tribe have their own languages. We can respect these languages by using them correctly or not at all.

▪In order to belong to one of the seven Cherokee clans, your mother had to have been/be Cherokee and her clan is passed on to you. If the maternal line has been broken by a non Cherokee or someone had all sons, you have no clan, which is the case with many today.

▪There is only one Cherokee tribe that consist of three bands. The Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma, United Keetoowah Band of Oklahoma and the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians of North Carolina. All others who claim a different band than one of the three above are not considered Cherokee and are a direct threat to Cherokee tribal sovereignty. In fact, to be Cherokee, one must be registered with the tribe, as Cherokee is a citizenship granted through documentation. One can have Native DNA but is not considered Cherokee until they are a registered tribal citizen.

This isn't like, in support of outdoor cats or anything, but I once saw a stray cat kill a fucking water moccasin. Was wild, a surprisingly one sided fight. Again, not like a message in this or anything, just a crazy thing that I saw happen once.

Cats are ballsy fuckers, they'll pick a fight with bear if they're tenacious enough

[hballegro]

mk heres a list of events that happened with my Sam Beckett character in dnd, a wild magic sorcerer, since it was a fun session

if you dont know, wild magic sorcerer is a normal sorcerer, except if you crit fail, you have to roll a d100 for a goofy-ass thing to happen [turn into a potted plant, start hearing music that isnt there, etc]

fight 1; like 5 goblins

missed the same spell 3 times in a row

rolled a 1, and so just fuckin exploded grease over the entire play area, causing 2 enemies to slip and hurt themselves and die

missed the same spell again

passed out and was revived by a team member

immediately after waking up, picked up his staff and hit a guy with max damage in the ribs, scaring off the rest of the attackers [this fight went on for a full hour. it was brutal. i missed so many times and yet had the most actual damage]

fight 2; like 5 more goblins but one is higher level

remembered a snake had previously attacked someone in this area of the cave and was thinking about sam beckett throwing a snake at a crowd of people yelling 'water moccasin!!' and then asked to look for the snake

found the snake with 18 perception [i was getting almost all low rolls so WOW]

failed to grab it the first time

succeeded the second time and entered combat with the approaching attackers by lobbing it right in a guy's face

it bit him and he died

it slithered away to a different guy and bit him

i missed the same spell again

i finally fucking hit and the dude had such low hp that i instantly incinerated him

i miss the same spell while trying to attack the guy that almost killed my teammate in this fight, and crit fail, so for the entire rest of the fight i have to shout everything i say

the very next turn, i target the same guy, and roll a nat 20. apparently me having to yell everything was sam going super sayan because my wild magic Funny Button meant if i succeeded at ALL, i got x2 damage, and then my nat 20 gave me another x2, and then my d10 gave me a 9, so i did 36 damage to this fucking goblin warden

DM: ok uh yeah you. you sent him to hell twice

DM:

decided enough was enough and sat the 3rd fight out with our rescued guy that we came to fetch

sam also

started a small forest fire as a distraction [it worked]

dissolved an entire tree via completely missing an acid spell attack

continued casting Fire Bolt while standing inside a wagon covered in flammable grease [that he made] that was also FILLED WITH DYNAMITE

i am going to continue pressing the funny button every time i can. my DM has a homebrew rule that lets me supercharge my spells [the x2 damage] cause of wild magic at the risk of a higher minimum for crit fail [because he wants the goofy shit to happen more often. higher risk higher reward]. the grease caused 2 enemies to slip and die and the shouting was funny as shit. not to mention reducing the strongest enemy of the encounter to fucking ash at level 1. the boss for the entire area [which i didnt fight] only had 27 hitpoints. i could have fucking 1-shot the area boss with that.

also next session i need to remember the grease thing and have boy be embarrassed he fucking Hagfished all over the wagon and also all of his party members

three cheers for the idiot boy whos subjected to me pressing Funny Button
