#On A Broken Field

[seasideoranges]

Bro it breaks my heart that some people will look at the scene with Katara saying Sokka didn’t love their mom like she did and look at Sokka’s scene with Toph when he tells her he doesn’t remember what his mother looks like, and come to the conclusion that he NEVER loved Kya.

#tiktok has been having a field day with assanine takes ive seen lately lmao #Sokka no one will understand your mommy issues like I do #im so sorry I feel like a broken record lmao the atla brain rot is so real #it’s all I can think about #embarrassing really #text

I love your goofy little farm boy denmark so much

thank youuuu 🥰 it's his natural state I think

#hetalia #aph denmark #hws denmark #thank youuu 🙏🥰 #he is the embodyment of the Danish summer holiday time #surrounded by fields of wheat and a white beach just down the “hill” #on a dirt road with small water puddles after yesterday's wash of rain #a small dog running by his feet while he carries a spare tire for his neighbour's broken bike #this is the denmark in my dreams

When you backread through a fun conversation you had with someone for hours an angel gets its wings

#I was talking to my brother about Norman doors and I had fun in my UX class and he was telling me about demon cores and the trolley problem #in his class. AND I remembered to take my meds today so I can feel every cell in my body. i can feel the neurons rubbing together #and yesterday I infodumped about the specialists bullseye chart to crow and how it ties with witch hat atelier #WHICH I MANAGED TOGET THEM TK READ IM SO HAPPY. I MAKE SQUEALING GUINEA PIG NOISES EVERY TIME THEY TELL ME WHAT THEYVE READ SO FAR. AHH #i might not even be scratching the surface with witch hat there are so many themes i could not possibly fathom or go over my heasd #and thats what makes it so exciting there are so many spaces in between that you can fill with your thoughts and i. i #waves my hands around manically #for anyone interested in my insane ramblings. the bullseye chart is from are we all scientific experts now by harry collins #in my own words its basically saying everything we know about anything is a game of broken telephone #and it discusses how information gets lost in translation between experts and laymen including things that arent in control #one of the main points was how things that happen between experts are complicated including debates and findings #that you can only really understand thru research and experience in that field and cant be smoothly shared without it being reworded #and risking some of those key points. or even concepts that are hard to understand that cant be shared at all #like if you tried to tell me about how DNA works using words scientists are familiar with but i am NOT- i risk missing concepts that i need #to understand to know how it works on the level you understand. or i risk having it reworded and understanding it but not on that level #AND IT DOES TIE TO WITCH HAT THE WITCH AND NORMAL FOLK COMMUNITIES I PROMISE. ITS SO INTERESTING #anyway i spent hours reading back thru that conversation and i might as well admit it goes for almost every fun conversation i have #and it might be the 20mg of adderall in my body but i am in such a state of peace and love i have to verbalize it. ahh #yapping

Umm my friends have been talking about pony so I've been drawing pony!!!! 💥 ID in alt and below cut

ID: A crayon drawing of a my little pony friendship is magic oc. It's a white pony with red and blue scene hair, arm warmers and a snapback.

A digital colored drawing of Party Favor from mlp. He has a distressed look on his face. There is text overlayed that says "Come to our little town, the stories here are never down, the happiness flows all around and little could to wrong.

A digital colored drawing of Party Favor from mlp, and a mlp oc. Party Favor has a broken horn, and looks mildly distressed. The oc is an adaptation of The Smiler. It's a bright yellow Pegasus, with black and white stripes on it's wings and legs. It's hair is also black and white.

A colored drawing of a mlp oc. He is facing away from the camera, moving away from the viewer. He is a greenish brown, with a dark green mane and tail. His cutie mark is three pine trees. In the corner is an uncolored drawing of Party Favor with a broken horn and flat hair. He is smiling uncomfortably, with the text behind him saying "Our town."

A digital colored drawing of a mlp oc. The ocs name is Scared Silly. He is a hunched over pegasus with white fur and black mane and tail. His cutie mark is a frightened looking yellow face. His eyes are yellow. He is a failed mirror pool copy of Surprise, from an alternate universe. There are several drawings of him around the canvas. At the top, a drawing of a mirror pool clone of Surprise, a white pegasus with yellow hair, with flat wet hair. There is an arrow to a small drawing of them running away. The caption says "Only got some of Surprise's traits." Below is a sketch of him getting his new cutie mark. Caption says "Eventually became an individual and gained his own cutie mark. Is afraid of being found and sent back to the pool. (wouldn't happen)."

Other captions around the image say, "he/it pronouns, trans gay and objecto. Hair can't inflate anymore but does fluff up. Special talent is predicting danger, like pinkie sense times ten. On pony HRT, dyes his hair." /end ID.

Office disability culture is so fucked in environmental science and fieldwork. Like the mindset that to do the job you have to be in perfect physical health or you should just quit. Like I'm not talking about something that is 100% physical labor here, everything is mostly achievable with aids and you don't need to be able to do every single thing. But there's this weird like..pride..that my older coworkers have. They work out in the gym and brag about how many reps they did. They tease each other for having medical issues. They don't ask for accommodations because they fear that their legitimacy will be hurt. That it means that they can't do their job anymore. That they won't be TRUSTED to do their jobs anymore. That it will get taken away.

So they FURTHER hurt their bodies by not resting, not taking breaks, not using ergonomic equipment, not using safety equipment. Not drinking enough water. Not using mobility aids when they are so old that it's supposed to be acceptable. They don't use the scooters at the grocery store, they don't use their handicapped placard, they don't use knee pads or compression gloves.

And here I come in, 24 years old, looking perfectly healthy. And I use walking sticks, I sit down a lot, I have my care bag, I have a ton of gadgets for making fieldwork more comfortable, I have boundaries and limits, I wear braces and knee pads and compression gloves. I use my handicapped placard.

They react in one of two ways:

1. How DARE I. I'm so lucky to be young and no one sees THEM having to do all those things (literally nothing is stopping them but pride). Like old man if you need a break take a fucking break. I'm not going to hurt my health to make you feel better about hurting yours. I'm not risking a flare up to spare the 65 year olds feelings. Im gonna take my break and use my equipment cause my boss doesn't care as long as the work gets done. I'm tired of glares from 100 year olds making themselves struggle across the parking lot when they could also be using the fucking scooter. (I never take the last scooter, there's always another available. Also it's not my fault if walmart only provides 2 scooters for the whole store).

2. It shows them its okay. Its okay to need aids. When I first showed up at my job it was very...macho..everyone was afraid of seeming old (theres probably only 3 of us under 30 in the whole department, most people are at least 50, mainly 65 year olds). Then they saw me using my walking sticks, taking my medicine openly, bringing a chair with me when working away from my desk, using my TENS unit. I overheard one lady ask her granddaughter what fibromyalgia was (apparently she had spotted my pain tracking journal).

My older coworker with a bad knee got a walking stick like mine and beamed when she showed me. The grandmother uses a cane and a walker interchangeably and more often. I get asked where I get my little portable fan and pocket heaters and special clothing. Even abled coworkers are doing it. My coworker who's younger than me sets alarms to take breaks now just like I do. People seem more comfortable using things that help them now.

My boss has really struggled. He has a lot of internalized ableism and hates thinking of himself as crippled. He spent his whole life physically active and strong and all these health issues and overexertion are catching up with him. Like he did environmental testing in areas with fucking radon. He did work where they threw asbestos around like snow for fun. He's done a ton of really hard physical work. He grew up with the mentality that pain was just something everyone has to push through. But I think seeing a young person make the choice not to push through is helping him a bit. He wants to make his own walking stick, he goes to the doctor more. We bond over having constant medical issues and I even gave him the name of my surgeon. Yea he still says stuff like "shoot me if I have to use a wheelchair" (not as much anymore since he now knows I use one) but he's getting there.

Yeah so I've had this in my drafts for a bit and I wanted to update that my boss has been walking around with a fucking broken ankle for the past couple of weeks. He thought it was just arthritis pain and eventually couldn't take it anymore and went to the foot doctor. The doctor has no clue how the fuck he's been walking on it. Now he has to wear the boot and he's banned from fieldwork while he heals.

Older people and the elderly need to learn that it's okay to not push through the pain and ask for help. Everyone needs to learn this, and not be like my fucking boss. Go to the doctor, get that sore joint checked out. Get those tests done. Use that aid. Stop walking on a broken ankle just because you can.

#chronic disability #chronic pain #spoonie #disability #from the field #wrenfea.exe #literally fucking flabbergasted #he walked in after leaving for a bit to go to his appointment and came back like so yeah my ankles been broken #BUDDY #everyone needs help sometimes you dont deserve to be in pain #like thats some catholic guilt shit im pretty sure #this man has had 4 major back surgeries so i guess a broken ankle is nothing compared to that #but still...jesus fucking christ #not sprained..BROKEN #and thats along with all the rest of the pain hes in #like i get being used to pain but if i stub my toe during a flare up I can't handle it because it pushes my pain level over the edge #so it actually makes me less tolerable since im already in pain #but im used to a higher pain level than abled people are #ok im done rambling for now im gonna go play Minecraft

What’s your favorite bone in your body to break?

My skull. I break it often just to say that it's broken.

#i have one very small bone (the occipital condyle) in my neck #that is also often broken #which is to say not often #i break it to assert my dominance over the medical field and make everyone think they're better than me #profic-pantheon

[comfortingcatharsis]

X smooths their hand rhythmically over Y's upper arm, touch sure and gentle. Spreading warmth follows it, like the heat of sinking into a hot bath, leeching deep into the limb. Tension also gradually leeches out of Y's frame and they uncurl slightly from their defensive stance. Their arm is still closely-guarded though, clamped tight to their side, and the tell-tale pinched corners of their eyes nevertheless belie their pain.

Their breath comes easier though as X finally lifts their hands away.

Emerging from their concentration, X gives a tired smile. 'There, I've stabilised it. It's not healed, mind; I'd say the equivalent of maybe a week's-worth of natural healing- the bone still needs another month at least to knit fully- but this should be just enough you can bear to walk out of here without it jarring too badly at every step.'

Y nods, keeping their good hand cupped protectively beneath the opposite elbow, and cautiously tests the arm's movement. They break off with a wince. 'Doesn't- ah- feel a whole lot better when I do that-'

'Don't let's get ahead of ourselves,' X stays Y with a hand on their chest. 'You're going to want that immobilised for a while yet- like I said, I can only give you a head-start; the rest of the slow and steady way is up to you now. Go rushing things too much with magic and they tend not to stay healed.'

Y leans tiredly back against the tunnel wall again. 'I know. Aches though, even just sitting here.'

X hums in sympathy and chances one last brief caress and pulse of warmth into the broken humerus before pulling the more mundane tools of their trade from their pack- curved length of bark for a splint, moss to pad it, broad fabric strips to use for sling and swathe, and a tincture for the pain.

Whump ABC #13 - Muffled screams

Based on the results of this poll.

_

Caretaker hates being in their "work mode".

They don't speak much, but when they do, they bark orders to not lose time to the severity of the situation. Tonight, caretaker has to get back into their "work mode".

The situation is urgent, whumpee got injured badly during the fight, only a sheer amount of luck helped both whumpee and the team mate to get here without any incidents, but caretaker knows that their hiding place could be discovered any time.

"I need you to hold this over whumpee's mouth," they say and look at team mate who looks at the piece of cloth with widened eyes. Caretaker hates their next words, but they can't lose any more time. "I know this sucks. But we can't let them discover us. And I need to work quickly. Now do as I told you."

The other nods and moves quickly enough before caretaker starts working on resetting the broken bone.

Caretaker hates being in their "work mode".

Because no matter how much they try to ignore them, the muffled screams ring in their ears. Those screams will haunt them at night, in their dreams. The despair, the pain. Even the cloth, the hand can't stop both to hit caretaker with full force.

Whumpee's muffled screams and choked sobs ring in caretaker's ears as they try to remind themself that these sounds are proof that the other is still alive.

You're about to make it to Floor 6 for the first time with nothing but reserve operators? Impressive! And with such a powerful and highly synergistic set of relics too! And 1hp 40+ shields, that's enough to survive even a boss leaking! It looks like you're on track to win this run!

It would be a shame if your command level leveled up from the fight right before Highmore, giving you +1 hp and deactivating your 50aspd king's lance and lowering your damage output and causing Highmore to leak and obliterate your shield reserves and getting you killed fighting Skadi when you could've won if you had a bit more hp to stall with.

Sure would be a shame.

:)

FUCK

#im actually so pissed i got trolled like that #gonna cry myself to sleep again #i didn't screenshot my 1hp 40+ shields but i pinky prommy that's not a lie. 24 from max difficulty regional commission + king's fellowship #i knew this would be a special run when i got hand of spikes *and* broken wand solving in the first shop #alas. it was not meant to be... #broken wand solving through 70 res relies on a bunch of casters being on field on the same time blasting highmore the moment she comes out #it was over once she survived the killbox. having to reposition my guys means i can't touch her afterwards #due to redeploy dp costs limiting how many i can put down at once causing them to get blasted since i can't set up proper aggro/healing #highmore escaping into the rest of the map also caused another like 10shields worth of leaks from the right side #arknights #is3 #reserve op gaming

Cute idea:

Yuugo holds tea parties for the younger GF kids and anyone else who wants to join in

(He first did it in an attempt to distract them when Emma was still in a coma recovering and they were sad)

OUGH very cute indeed this is 100% canon in my mind.

In addition to reassurances from Anna, Don, Gilda, and Nat, Yuugo's words would keep them grounded with his steadfast conviction that Emma would pull through and Ray would return within three weeks, even with the latter happening and Emma still not having woken up yet.

(Chapter 58)

The youngest were already so keen on being around him even before his turn around that I feel like it wouldn't take much convincing to get them on board with the first one.

(TPN Light Novel 3: Records of Comrades - “Two Paths”​)

Assuming Yuugo doesn't fix the cup he was sipping air from before this a second time, I wonder if he would automatically include it among his set-up or if the kids would notice and insist on setting another place to honor Dina and the rest of the group from Glory Bell. If the latter, Yuugo would surely be touched and be one of many instances where he can't stop himself from thinking a combination of just how good these kids are and how he's grateful he's alive to participate in this.

The older Grace Field kids wouldn't take much prompting to join either, with the exception of Gilda. She was ready to follow through on her threat to blow up the shelter after seeing Ray didn't return with them and Emma was in critical condition.

(Chapter 96)

But once she understands the situation, she's quick to adapt so Emma's life can be saved.

Still, there's probably a bit of awkwardness once everything's calmed down. I love the thought of the younger kids pulling her into either the first or second one and her being a bit hesitant, but Yuugo, handling it with grace and without drawing much attention to why that might be, hands her a cup with a small but kind smile. She accepts it with a smile of her own.

Understandably, there's more focus on his relationships and dynamics with Emma and Ray, but I love whenever creators focus on his relationship with Don and Gilda considering the four of them maybe have…two or three months at the shelter with him and Lucas before they're killed compared to the rest of the kids who stay behind? Same with Zack and Violet.

(Mystic Code Book Chapter 7; the timeline's a little fuzzy on how much time they spend at the bunker between the East and West expeditions.)

Love a bunkerman getting to know and spend time with all his kids. Naturally, this extends to all of them participating in a tea party at some point. There's not enough cups from the set him and Lucas brought from Glory Bell, but if the shelter doesn't have any spare sets, they make due with what they have since it's not the type of cups that matter, but that they're all taking time to enjoy these little moments of happiness with one another in the new home and family they've made for themselves.

Other odd thoughts:

• I'm not sure whether it's funnier to have the kids teach Yuugo proper tea party etiquette or if he surprises them with his knowledge on the subject based on what he learned back at Glory Bell or what he read in some books in the bunker library. (Over the course of thirteen years, he might have come across something, but put the books down upon coming across those passages because at the time, it was too painful. Now he has a reason to go back and read them.) • Gillian would 110% be on board for pulling out all the stops for this and along with Pepe would be stepping up the dessert game. • Pepe would also have his own assortment of tea blends to share, along with Lucas and Paula. • We see Paula eating with the rest of the group in chapter 98

so the ritual of eating with Adam shown in the chapter 92 bonus sketch might have been left at Goldy Pond, but on some occasions where she seeks out a more quiet spot to enjoy her tea, Adam ends up accompanying her.

#or maybe Yuugo doesn't put his broken cup out right away but Lucas is the one who prompts him to do it #so many ways to go with it that I find equally plausible #this is a v cute and healing hc ty nonny #The Promised Neverland #TPN #TPN Timeline #TPN Light Novels #Records of Comrades #TPN Two Paths #Mystic Code Book #FSS Chatter #FSS Asks #TPN Yuugo #TPN Yugo #Grace Field Kids #TPN Gilda #Yuugo #Gilda #Goldy Pond Crew #Pepe #Paula #Adam #Search for Minerva Arc #TPN 058 #Cuvitidala Arc #Goldy Pond Battle Arc #TPN 092 #TPN 098
