Oh yeah, the Punnet Squares

I never did tell y'all what that was about.

I mostly gave up on it after I realized that I didn't know wtf I was doing, but maybe y'all can run with it anyway.

Basically, I was trying to map out how skin color might be inherited in the NSR universe. I'll put the full document I wrote below the cut, but I don't necessarily believe anything in it at this time.

NSR Genes Headcanon

Skin color -Primary colors (reds, yellows, blues) are dominant over secondary colors (oranges, greens, purples). However, the gene which causes the specific hue is caused by something else, and no specific hue appears to have dominance over the other outside the primary and secondary split.

Unsaturated skin tones (black, white, and grays) are usually actually just tints and shades of a saturated color, and purely unsaturated skin is very rare and tends to be caused by a mutation.

However, primary color skin actually have incomplete dominant genes, so it is possible for people who have heterozygous genotypes to result in secondary or tertiary color children.

So, a child from like-color parents are most likely to also be a like color, but depending on the parents' genetics, it is possible for the child to have different colored skin.

For example, two green parents are likely to have a green child no matter what their genes are, but a yellow or blue child is possible if one or both of parents have heterozygous genes.

If both parents have recessive traits and at least one of them has heterozygous genotypes, then the child has the possibility of sharing either parent's skin color, or the primary color shared between both parents.

For example, the child of a purple and green parent as a chance of being blue.

This is vice versa if both parents have dominant traits.

For example, the child of a red and yellow parent has a chance of being orange.

If the parents are complimentary colors (red and green, blue and orange, yellow and purple), then depending on the parents' genes, the child could potentially be any color.

For example, if a Red parent with a Green partner both have heterozygous genotypes (Hh x Hh) or both have homozygous genotypes (HH x hh), then the child could be any color due to every combination being possible, and every color having an equal chance of appearing against each other.

- But, if the Red parent has heterozygous genotypes while the Green partner has Homozygous recessive genotypes (Hh x hh), then the child could be either red or green. Remember that the gene only determines the likelihood of the color being primary or secondary. The hue is independently determined by other factors. So, in this case since red and green are complimentary and thus cannot mix into a primary or secondary color, if the child gets the Hh gene, it can only be red or green.

Mutations -Very rarely, a child may be born with split-color skin (Example: Nadia/Eve). It is more common to see this when the parents have different skin colors, but it is possible for it to appear even when the parents have the same skin color.

Children of mix-color parents also have a higher chance of developing birthmarks in any other color possible in their genes.

Hair color

Hair color works a little differently than skin color: rather than being determined by the color of their parent's hair, hair color is determined by skin color.

It is dominant for the hair color to be similar or analogous to skin color, while it is recessive to be complimentary.

For example, it is more common for a red person to have red hair, and an orange person to have yellow hair, but it is less common for a red person to have green hair and a purple person to have yellow hair.

Skin Color: Alternate Explanation

Children tend to share their parents' skin tone. If both parents have similarly colored skin, then the child is likely to have the same color.

If both parents have differently colored skin, then the child could have either parents' skin color, or a mix. -For example, a red parent with a yellow partner could have a red, yellow, or orange child.

If the parents are analogous colors, then the child has a chance of being a tertiary color. -For example, a blue parent with a purple partner could have blue, purple, or blue-purple child.

If the parents are both different secondary colors (orange, green, or purple), then the child also has a chance of being the primary color shared between both parents. -For example, an orange parent with a purple partner could have a red child just as well as orange or purple.

If the parents are complimentary colors (red and green, yellow and purple, or blue and orange), then the child could potentially be any color, but is much more likely to share either parent's color.

Unsaturated skin colors (black, white, and grays) are also possible but are extremely rare due to these skin colors being recessive to every other color. It is more likely for a person to actually be a shade or tint of a saturated color than it is to be truly unsaturated.

In general, birthmarks/freckles tend to appear as a shade or tint of a person's skin color, but they can appear in completely different colors too. The latter is more common in people with mixed parents, where the birthmark can be either parents' color or the parents' mixed or shared color. For example, the child of red and yellow parents could have an orange birthmark and the child of a green and purple parent could have a blue birthmark. Rarely, a birthmark can be a color not outwardly present in either parent. For example, the red child of two red parents could have a blue birthmark due to one or both of the parents having genes for blue skin. Split color skin is just another form of birthmark, though it is much more rare than smaller birthmarks.

Sorry I forgot Hanneman suggested Byleth undress after they show up with a different hair color. And I miss Hanneman. And also while swapping between Houses and Hopes and seeing Hanneman pop up to help in a Hopes paralogue is just devastating since he doesn't ever actually join you at all and I am denied my old man rights.

So I had to draw this. Thank you for understanding.

#fe three houses #byleth #hanneman von essar #i like that Byleth just kinda stares at him and he realizes WHAT HE SAID and the implications and is like #step back uh forget that I said that #like man so zoned in on research he blurts that out and has to backtrack mentally to AH socially bad to say that my bad #if i need to tag this as anything lemme know even though it is a conversation in game basically (minus the marriage) #also if you have never married hanneman i genuinely enjoyed his s support and was VERY surprised and hes just #honestly one of my favorites overall in 3h ?? and im still bummed i cant play as him in thropes like thats just mean #also i think if byleth was like oh well if its awkward to see someone undress randomly #then marriage would solve the awkwardness this is truly the best deduction #which is really funny that i can see it happening with both leths despite my hc of them #with fyleth as bi and myleth as ace i think both would just be like AH cool we can avoid awkwardness by marriage #and hanneman just wants to go lie down in a ditch because he said something like that #and and byleth doesnt even know about religion while working at church school they dont know about school regulations #that wasnt really on their mind to check ok just saying you could tell byleth no to something #and then they just go oh school policies i understand unfortunately #and the person is like no we just meant its frowned upon to do archery practice in the tea garden its not technically illegal just dont??

Is Polterpup Pascal in your Bowuigi Rapunzel AU?

Unfortunately, Luigi doesn't have a pet in my Bowuigi Rapunzel AU because when I first created the Luaisy Rapunzel AU in 2019, I didn't have a good idea on how Pascal would fit into my AU (and this also goes with Maximus too because I want my Rapunzel AU to focus more on the main characters and their different relationships (Luigi and Bowser, Luigi and Mario, Mario and Bowser, etc.)).

However, even though Polterpup won't be in the main storyline, this doesn't mean that he's completely out of the picture. An idea one of my friends and I talked about was the idea of Luigi and Bowser adopting the Koopalings & Jr. after the main events of the AU took place and I can definitely see Luigi wanting to adopt Polterpup as a pet companion for himself, Bowser and the Koopalings & Jr.

(And yes, in my Bowuigi Rapunzel AU, Jr. would be Bowser's ADOPTED son instead of his BIOLOGICAL son. As much as I love Jr., making him blood-related to Bowser would throw some major complications to my overall storyline because I would then need to figure out a few different things such as how he came to be and the impact he would have on Luigi and Bowser's relationship.)

Thank you for the ask! 😃

#also for anyone who's waiting on chapter 2 of the Bowuigi Rapunzel AU I apologize that it's taking me a long time to upload it #I should've provided a warning back in ch. 1 that the chapter uploads are going to be a little spontaneous #there's one more reblog I want to upload after this ask but after that I'll start prioritizing ch. 2 #(I say that as I have at least 3-4 other posts that are currently in my drafts that I would like to upload sometime in the near future) #(ah well like I said back in the ch. 1 tags I'll figure it all out as I go) #I do really appreciate you all being with patient with me though :) #ask nickname #luigi #luigi nintendo #bowser #bowser nintendo #bowuigi #bowser x luigi #super mario #super mario bros #mario fanfic #mario au #rapunzel #bowuigi rapunzel au #polterpup #koopalings #the koopalings #larry koopa #morton koopa jr #wendy koopa #iggy koopa #roy koopa #lemmy koopa #ludwig koopa #bowser jr

[just venting a bit into the void you understand you understand 😌] Lately I've been feeling very caught between "I have a lot of thoughts on Sparrow and Normal and all that with the ending and teen talk and feel like I need to get them out and voice them for my own piece of mind and resolution" and "I am lacking the strength and energy to actually sit down and write it all out and kind of really just want to fully move on to other things (AUs, fics, anything else)" but my brain can't seem to commit to either and that's quite frustrating cause it's just left me very restless. *Sigh*. Idk! Just needed to complain about that a bit ig, it's silly but this is what has been ailing me as of late.

#Then there's also a part of me that's like “does anyone even care at this point? haven't I already talked about them too much?” #but I have seen many a take that irk me... #and perhaps at the center of it all nagging at me is that persistent conflation of love and pride #Less about that in Normal's mind so much as in Will's and the fandom's 🤔 #Also that reoccurring issue of the fandom going ''Normal thinks this therefore it is The Truth'' though I believe I've discussed this befor #And... Hooks Will could have grabbed onto but didn't... Quite a few of those... #And the double standard/negativity bias in fandom of ignoring that Sparrow says both that he loves and likes Normal while doodlerized #But not treating those with the same legitimacy we do the pride thing. And ignoring Sparrow's demonstrations of love and change... #And what the love wolf scene actually implies about Sparrow (as I see it) with his own explanation of the pride thing in mind #But also!!! Also on Norm's epilogue and how despite everything taken at face value (i.e. no teen talk influence) I don't actually hate it #and I think it's plenty salvageable #And gah also that like *regardless* of how things turn out with Normal and his dad- #Well I haven't listened to much of the teen talk just the directly Sparrow-relevant clips #so I don't know quite how cynical Will is or isn't about Normal's future #But like. UGH. What I'm trying to say is even if things didn't find resolution vis-a-vis his dad #(which tbh I could go either way on- it's the meta misinterpretations of Sparrow that Bother me not so much Normal's) #(Well that's complicated. Again it comes back to the love vs. pride thing gosh this is so vague of me lol) #With all the positive influences in his life (and just the fact that life is long? and therapy is a thing?) I just don't see Normal- #being Miserable for the rest of his life. Like. I mean I won't elaborate here really but damn it no he can absolutely turn out alright stil #blugh #BUT YOU SEE WHAT I MEAN THAT'S A LOT OF STUFF AND THAT'S ONLY VAGUE RAMBLINGS ABOUT *SOME* OF IT #Like I'm proud of a lot of my essay posts (which I'm hoping to eventually compile in a masterpost eventually actually) but they take a whil #And if my heart wants to do other things... Ah idk... #ANYWAYS a vent to vent a vent to vent

love waiting for a phone appointment and the clock ticks past the set time....... 15 min now.... is her day busy and delayed, will she call in a sec or in half an hour instead? is she for some reason not calling at all but I didn’t get notified? has she forgotten? no idea and there's no way for me to call so I just have to wait.....

#it's a nurse checking in about the antidepressants #she's been lovely so far but i've felt anxious about it today for some reason #and now this #what....am i just supposed to go about my day until she calls??? sounds fake #i'll just be anxiously doing nothing while waiting #EDIT UPDATE: she was just late and also I almost cried at one point #not necessarily related to the depression but another personal Thing and even though what she said was broad and not something new really #I just.... a medical professional saying I'm far from the only one and I'll get there and just #ah yeah crying now #and i might not get another appointment with her :( fingers crossed tho that the doctor want her to check in instead of him #and fingers crossed even tighter that the psychologist won't just offer group therapy again I DON’T WANT THAT IT DIDN’T WORK LAST TIME

i want to tell u guys abt my weredog oc... hes like if patrick bateman sucked and wasnt a nepo baby and worked a middling dead end office job..i give all of my trauma and worries and fears to him about fitting in and not getting to have an impact and yet not having the personal strength to make things better,

#what untreated adhd and gifted kid burnout does to a mf #i dont have any drawings of him. i forgot how to draw again #when my self insert is the worst version of myself #im so worried ill turn out like him. like for all of my posturing ill never really get out of this hole #like i can try and do everything perfectly to reverse original sin but i will never be able to do that #he is soo transgender coded. dogboy who wants to become a humanboy #hes a border collie bc hes smart but other than that he doesnt really have a lot going for him #one of the few weredogs who have mastered temporary transformation into a human #nearly fulltime supression of his dog traits.. #ah well he also turns out to be a bad person and screws a bunch of people over by trying to be a human #idk.. im still trying to figure out what i want to say #perchance.. sossiety #*wizard brame voice* we live in a society #in the end. i think he really just wants to be left alone and be himself (even though he has lost himself) #-away from other people #why did i type this? i was thinking about the gaping hole in my heart again. #yap #if i ever wrote a book abt him itd be 80% him having a mental breakdown and the other 20% not being a good person

Maaaaaaaaaaaan, come on.

(the post has ended up in the tags btw. I am not changing this and I need you to understand that it is just me talking to myself semi-publicly)

i started reading this fucking out of character thick of it fanfic like a week ago bc even tho i could tell from first glance it was going to be ooc i was just curious and it sounded kind of funny slash tragic. (how are you tagging grief child death domestic violence attempted suicide on a ttoi fic hello?) and i dooo like complaining And for the most part if it weren't supposed to be about those guys it would just be pretty good so im not Regretting it? but i didn't realise how many stories were in the series and im probably 150k words in. and not much more than halfway through

#and it doesnt even have sex scenes. fml #me.txt #iam also so fed up with writing that seems to romanticise women prioritising men andtheir emotions over their own personal safety/ wellbeing #like im not saying you cant Depict that but maybe lets unpack that. and not treat it as if it's just that woman's inherent personality #rather than a something shes been Taught to do #though while we're on the subject actually i dont think the way nicola is written is in character either #like i focus on malcolm bc its more egregious but nicola is not.. shes not putting her kids before herself like that. #i know losing one of them might make a difference but its not even presented like it's bc of that. its just oh im writing a woman well her #priority must be her kids! well no she is a bad mum and doesnt really like her kids so #but that didnt stand out to me so much until i started rewatching s3. #i was more like ah yes. famously anti-racist feminist ally malcom tucker who easily goes not just hours but months at a time without saying #anything homophobic and uses the occasional ableist turn of phrase in his mind but usually keeps it to himself. #i mean i can definitely understand not wanting to comr up with and write realistic malcolm tucker dialogue. i wouldnt want to. #but well the whole thing is a bit he wouldnt fucking say or do any of that #but again. i could see that clearly from the description and walked in eyes open #its good tho its given me a lot to think about at work.

You know, I hope the bad guy in this weeks episode of my adventures with superman is ultra-humanite or someone along those lines.

From a story standpoint what this episode needs to do is mend the relationship between Clark and Lois.

Lois feels betrayed because Clark kept his abilities secret, so I feel she needs to be shown why he would be so scared of having his identity exposed. What happens to a superman without a Clark Kent to ground him.

Having the villain be like, someone who’s like willingly discarded their humanity instead of trying to keep it would help accomplish that.

Honestly, I don’t even know much about ultra-humanite, but I know he sometimes looks like a giant ape and is a mad scientist (episode title “my adventures with mad science”)

I dunno. Maybe I’m confusing “forgiving” with “understanding”.

#my adventures with superman #maws #clark kent #superman #not saying Clark didn’t do anything wrong #but like #I don’t want to see the whole episode devoted to a big lying is wrong Aesop #he should say sorry though #ah who am I kidding he’s gonna say sorry like 1000 times. it’s Clark.
