I say this in the kindest way possible, but I think this style of prose is more appropriate for a personal account rather than an update account. I have no idea who's being talked about half the time. 🥲

My beautiful baby dog absolutely crushed the field trials this weekend and pulled TWO third places over some really competitive and experienced puppies! I'm so so so proud of how she ran this weekend and I'm so happy the judges saw the same potential in her that I do 💛💛

#dogblr #rory borealis #field dog chronicles #my face #this was our second field trial #lots of the same dogs! #this one had horseback judging! Rory's first experience with people on horseback! #we've worked on being chill around horses but never encountered people on horseback #she gave them one glance and then moved on without issue #our first run was with a friend she knows #it took her a few minutes to stop trying to play and get her head in the game #but she worked suuuuper hard and ran really well #our second run was with another baby puppy #and they both wanted to play so bad #after a few minutes the judges asked us to split up and the dogs got to work beautifully #for both runs she ranged appropriately ran fast and checked the terrain thoroughly #she was also SUPER responsive #took directions beautifully and recalled perfectly #it was extremely fun i couldnt ask for better puppy runs #we're done for the summer but will run again in september

Reasons you love whisperain

Her most characteristics trait people overlook from her

And favourite ships with her innit

-M

Hhmhmm,

When i first saw her it was sorta love at first sight, like, ohhh a gloomy looking cool jellyfish medic with an eyepatch!!! Then when i got to her lore it's so like, her weird form of immortality, her only barely remembered past life(?) connection to the seaborn, her past travels as a wandering medic/in her previous lives. It's really fun to think about what she could've been up to and who she could've met. Also she's so pretty and so cute and i love her reserved but extremely gentle personality.

As for her overlooked traits, i can't really blame people bc it is like, 1 (one) voiceline, but

This thing and its implications for her have been driving me insane ever since she dropped in global. What did she see????? Where has she been??? I barely see stuff exploring it from anyone else and it makes me a bit sad

My fave Whispy pairings lately have been her and Andreana's narratively neglected purple girls' club, and aside from that Weedyrain is always a classic (Weedy building an entire movietheater for Whisperain in her oprec for example is so romance)

I tend to um, whimsically pair her up with whomever I'm feeling at the time, for ex. in that church of the deep au/theory of mine i was thinking she'd go well in a tense yuri thing with Amaia :3. Also her voicelines and profile mention Warfarin a lot, so that's also a rarepair i enjoy (even if im the only one to do so waaah). Gameplay synergy wise she goes together so well with Blaze i cant help but also like them together :).

Then there's of course the pretty nice pairing with Dusk (girl who creates art to deal with the horrors vs girl who enjoys art to deal with the horrors, grumpy reserved girl vs kind reserved girl alliance, them both enjoying movies, Whisperain's past allowing her to have met whomever in a past life she doesn't remember and the implications for that with Dusk....)

Basically she never gets anything canon ever at all so in my despair I've taken to playing with her & anyone available like dolls. It's great fun, highly recommend (join me join me join me)

#arknights #iii could probly write a full essay on all my fave whispy rarepairs but mayhaps i wont put that all in one post #i did make my whispy rarepairs collection post a while back but since then theres been new ones so honestly i should make a new one #every day i work so very hard to advocate for whisperain yuri in my neglected blorbo mines #with andreana me & my buddies have been going pretty wild with the lore i should um post about it sometime here as well #liike you know theyve both got only vaguely remembered seaborn connections which theyre sorta running away from. #what if you put them together on a field mission in iberia and everything regarding that went wrong at once & they had to crawl their way #back to rhodes somehow while trying to cling to their humanity/current life :) enriching #asks

A few quick random tidbits about Yanshang Teahouse:

— Teahouse/casino. While said to be 'disguised' as a teahouse, Yanshang does seem to genuinely function as one, or at least during the daytime. And it's primarily during the evening hours that it functions more actively as a casino. Now I need to note, the latter is not public knowledge. Or rather, it's more so a rumor that holds a fair bit of truth to it. But a rumor is a rumor nonetheless. This is vital, because it is because of this that it is still running. I've spoken a fair bit about this behind the scenes lately, but Yanshang functions as a casino because it draws 'less than good people' into a surrounding that has everything playing against them, and through that, Yelan is able to gather intelligence that benefits everyone, especially Ning. So if the latter for example, Ningguang were to know its full ins and outs, it would actually mean that she'd have to turn a blind eye to something that is not fully legal, which spells all kinds of trouble for the person responsible for, well, the law in Liyue Harbor?

— Gambling. Yelan has gained a reputation for her gambling skills, and is even rumored to cheat when the need calls for it (though of course, this isn't picked up on, it seems!), as is noted in her fifth character story: "If there is a draw, that could only mean one thing: Her opponents are cheating too.", and so potential opponents are advised to steer clear of playing against her through word on the streets of the harbor.

— Home? While this is not Yelan's home whatsoever, there is an upstairs area that is something akin to her 'private quarters'. It holds no personal affects that are tied to her directly, but to an extent, if one were to ever intrude/break in (past The Halbert and the Fang, somehow), you'd find the 'guise' tied to this notorious woman who owns Yanshang. But this guise is not quite her. Again, she works in personas, some much more realistically than others (the art of it, is knowing what of yourself you put into personas as to add to their authenticity's longevity). Either way, there is a comfort and peace that she finds in it, and the room is somewhat styled into a decorum that Yelan appreciates, beyond the 'keeping up appearances' aspect to it. It is hers in the end, to some degree.

— Finances. While one would be led to believe that Yelan gains a lot of financial benefits through Ningguang, Yelan's second character story might beg to differ: 'The way (Yelan) sees it, she is not so much working for Ningguang as making good on her end of the deal, or rather... she is honoring a certain pact. She plucks the fruits of intelligence from the tree of danger for Ningguang, and in return, all she asks for is danger itself and the sense of achievement.' While I'm decently certain that Yelan might occasionally stand to gain some sort of financial gain through the Qixing, it seems evident that it's not what her primary motive is. Yelan seems to not be interested in luxury by default (she lived in a hut for a long time), and more so seeks a sense of freedom, thrill and personal achievement. Now do I think that because of this, she's not well off? No, I simply think that the majority of her income may actually come from Yanshang Teahouse, and, to put it not-so-eloquently, ripping off bandits, and hopefully, specifically some Fatui in the process.

#[ meta. ] the chances are if i open this door; there can be no witnesses left alive. is that a sufficient reason for you? #[ a big motivator for the last one also is that the security and 'receptionist' for yanshang never changed after yelan took it over. ] #[ which tells me they're likely loyal to coin (as most in that field are to be fair) or are subject to blackmail. ] #[ one may be tempted to think the latter; but that's not quite... safe enough. as in jail there's resentment that forms and then... ] #[ word of mouth and they'd become yelan's (or the tea house's) enemies rather than keeping them neutral or friendly. ] #[ so i like to think it's coin. but also considering the direct trade route/delivery route that we know canonically runs from... ] #[ chenyu vale to yanshang-- there's /got/ to be enough money in circulation there. ] #[ she has a decent pouch of mora on her. that and an even bigger pouch of favors people owe her (and vice versa). ] #[ any way; i'll likely be adding to this! ]

tbh i do feel like a lot of sport dog or general dog people's confusion regarding why certain gear not made for specific sports does not work for that said sport comes from a general lack of people who do not have a lot of personal experience wearing sport equipment or doing sports themselves.

Obviously people not having that experience is not a bad thing, we all learn and grow and it's great imo that people want to do active things with their dogs (any little bit you do is positive in my eyes). But it's just a fact to me that when you, personally, have experience with how YOU feel in different type of sports equipment, that knowledge certainly transfers to animal sports as well.

#dogblr #dog gear #this message brought to you by your former emo jock darkwood..... #so many shoe fittings to not feel pain #so much tailoring things to each individual need #can you imagine if i tried to do gymnastics in hiking boots. or even run track in hiking boots #that's what a lot of people are essentially asking of their dogs #and btw when we talk about modular 'all in one' dog equipment it's like #the gear equivalent of 3 in 1 mens shampoo #it works alright #and it's better than not having correct gear #but it's not going to work as well as the gear specialized for that sport #would you bring a field hockey stick to an ice hockey game? absolutely fucking not #when i say i am a sports coach to my dogs i mean it lol #i'm here to make sure they can perform the best they can #and take them out of the game if they need it so they don't overrun their limits #to help stretch them and keep them supple and healthy #and give them snacks. lots of snacks.

I just saw a video of "Idol" being performed live, and it made me uncomfortable in a way the animated music video didn't.

First off, "Idol" is not only the OP of Oshi no Ko, it's also the image song for the series's central character, Ai Hoshino. Specifically, it describes Ai's idol facade, how fans react to it, and the secrets it hides.

This is an appropriate focus for the song! If those aren't the most important parts of Ai, neither the audience nor her children ever see what's more important. And as the theme song for Oshi no Ko, it's even more apt; secrets and lies are the core theme of the series, and it's not even subtle.

But a song which focuses on the deceptiveness of idols, how artificial their stage persona is, with a chorus implicitly representing their fans chanting "You're my savior, you're my saving grace," being sung by a fictional idol on an animated stage hits a little different than when it's sung by real musicians on a real stage, surrounded by real cheering fans.

...

Second, at least half of the video was shot from the crowd. A crowd of probably 20 to 30 thousand people, in a dark, enclosed space. A loud crowd. Why do neurotypical people like that?

#oshi no ko #yoasobi #music #music video #themes #in more ways than one #random thoughts #did I ever tell you about the concert my college hosted at the end of freshman orientation week? #there were probably a few thousand people (definitely <10k) in the crowd and the crowd was in a nice open field #I had no idea why I was sobbing and had to run away but in retrospect I'm pretty sure I had a panic attack #I'm not surprised that big-name musicians have 100k fans who are willing to pay to hear them sing in person #I'm surprised those fans are willing to enter a crowd of 99999 other fans #and don't get me started on mosh pits

#listen. im just gonna rant abt something real dumb for a sec #the framing of missing 411 stories make me so annoyed. and if u dont kno. missing 411 stories are focused on ppl who went missing in #national parks or just out in nature with no real explanation. i dont even kno why i watch these videos they just make me mad #theyre not all bad but like mother fucker do u not kno how easy it is to get lost in thr fucking woods? #theyre like: this person was an experienced hiker. they wouldnt have just done X #like no. fuck off. it only takes one bad move. one bad day. one unexpected run in and boom that's it #its not that crazy???? its not magic or bigfoot. its ppl getting confused or disoriented and panicking #i mean. obvously not in every case but fucking im like 99% sure its not spooky stuff. its just easier than youd like to think to get lost #my little sister got lost in the woods when she was like 6. she took a wrong turn on a hiking path and walked so far my dad almost turned #back bc he thought she would never get that far but there she was. one tiny blip in a big big forest and she was on a path #its so so easy to miss one tiny point out there. this also goes for places out in the desert #like sure its flat. how could a person get lost in an open space? but no fuck u. ive gotten lost walking along a 50m flat transect #i looked up and for about a minute i wasnt where i thought i was. the heat and not drinking or eating enough can really mess with you head #ugh. i dunno. one of my lab mates has done more like serious outdoors stuff. like not going back to civilization for weeks doing field #work out in Colorado. and he says there is something weird about being alone out there. like some places have a call to them. a temptation #compelling you to do things u kno r bad ideas. but i also pressed him and it seems to come from a lack of othet ppl watching you #like a lack of socal constraint enables the temptation to make reckless choices. so like i dunno it sounds more like a human thing #than the supernatural but like what do i kno? anyway. missing 411 stories make me man #mad. god. there was one i watched where the guys were like. hm they seem to happen around weird places like swamps. or around bad weather #events. so maybe these places or events cause disappearances to happen. like fucking no! do u hear what ur saying????? #the disappearences occure around places that are objectively difficult to search under conditions that delay search effort????? is ur brain #broken? the bad conditions make it hard to find ppl so u find less ppl and theyre marked as missing. jesus christ #anyway. its baffling to me. but i keep watching thr videos. probably bc i have nightmares about running into wild animals out in the woods #so im searching for like. god what not to do if i get lost in the woods. when what i shoukd do is watch survival videos rip #unrelated #ugh. also ive done some work in a national park where u would think its super super hard to get lost but our fieldwork got delayed bc ppl #had to go do search and rescue and the person was dead by the time they were found. i dont kno the details but like its a thing that #happens. its not that crazy #not to mention all the dumb fucks who fall of the cliffs every year down where i grew up. every fucking year. it happened to one of our #neighbors. he was at the bottom of this cliff for a whole day and survived. i dunno bad things happen everyday. u r not immune
