Meet the Creturs...

Part Two!

... Axolotlesque and Eek!

Mixies Of: Sheepdog, Papillon, German Shepherd, and Scottie

Result: I mean I'm counting this as a part 2 to Eldie and Ritchie for a reason.

Axolotlesque is particularly EldRitch-like, except for being almost entirely white. And then there's Eek, who I thought was also pretty similar but now realize is basically a black Papi.

These two definitely solidify my belief that Papillon and Scottie is really all you need for your own axolotl creature, since unlike the EldRitch duo, these two don't have any Chihuahua in them. On the other hand, they also have German Shepherd, which I still can't see.

As a side note, they both have the same parents, but Axo has more Scottie in her somehow (22.22% compared to Eek's 11.11%) and Eek has more Papillon in him (33.33% compared to 22.22%). I don't even know how that works.

after very determinedly getting through my first viewing of stranger things WITHOUT getting attached to the character i knew was going to die, i have now fallen straight into blorbo hell AND dragged my best friend into the fandom with my rewatch!

also i’m going to write fic if it kills me.

Meet Juniper! He's definitely made the new house feel more like a home, snuggling with me in bed and running around the house like his tail is on fire. https://www.instagram.com/p/ChylwuHOyTi/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

the euphoria and pride that comes with looking at a freshly assembled piece of furniture in your new home is rivaled only by the frustration and despair of actually putting it together.

My #1 post of 2022

i got unreasonably excited when kingsley pulled out the boat in a box because, let me tell you, one of our party members has one of those and they are SO USEFUL.

and in true dnd party fashion, i’m pretty sure we’ve only used it as a boat like, once, in a multiple year long campaign.

@axolotlesque replied to your post “This episode of season 16 was written by the Glee...”

the a plot is so good!!! the b plot is. please fire whoever wrote the b plot.

Again Supernatural episodes are so inconsistent with each other 🤦🏻 in the previous episode Jensen Ackles confirmed he takes it in the ass and now some dude who apparently never heard the word bisexual spews the coldest take on gender and sexuality since the last ice age. Classic Supernatural, can’t deny it

ohoho, the return of prompt memes!!! i'm still blazing through your entire ao3 collection but it's v cool to actually be here for one! 12 + 1 or 26? :o

Anonymous said: Yoooo how are you feelin about number 12 from the spring prompt thing. I love love love your writing

(edit: forgot an anon requested it too!)

WOOO PROMPT MEMES!! theyre just fun yknow… i did 26 earlier yesterday so i think i’ll do the 12 and 1…ripe for melodrama….

1. Rain and 12. Panicked/Accidental Confession

from spring fic prompts meme here

Hermann’s aware he must be a sight as he tears out onto the loading dock, parka unzipped, shirt untucked, one Oxford unlaced, and he’s aware he’s forgotten his umbrella and becoming more drenched by the second, and he’s aware, most of all, of the bewildered and frankly concerned looks being cast in his direction, but he’s in a bit of a hurry and can’t find it within himself to care in the slightest. Ten minutes ago, he was sitting in his bunk, stripped down to his undershirt and idly flipping through some old research, when he received a call that Newton–well–

“The boat,” he half-shouts, scarcely audible over the rain, as he catches a random Shatterdome worker by the shoulder, “the boat that went out this morning, has it returned?”

The man sets down the wooden crate he’d been toting. “One with the team?”

Hermann nods.

The man points further down, at the next dock over. More workers in their dark blue PPDC jumpsuits are hitching a rope from a boat to a post, and more still are beginning to unload more crates from it. “They’re getting in right now.”

Hermann wheezes out his thanks, and, cane slippery in his grasp, hauls himself over as fast as his legs will take him.

“Dr. Geiszler,” he shouts to the crew, squinting into the sheets of rain and trying, desperately, to seek out any even vaguely familiar blur, anyone who will know, “I’m looking for Dr. Geiszler, has anyone–Newton Geiszler, he was meant to–”

“Uh, Hermann,” a familiar voice says.

There, shivering on the edge of the boat under a small awning, soaking wet, reflective blanket around his shoulders, and only just visible, is Newton. “Hi,” he says sheepishly.

Hermann is struck with the overwhelming urge to slap him across the face. He settles, instead, on storming over, reaching out, and smacking his shoulder. “You’re a moron,” he hisses. 

The events of the day were this. Hermann awoke to find the lab suspiciously empty. Assuming Newton was taking a sick day, or was hungover, or had just overslept his alarm again, he resumed his work from the previous evening and thought nothing of it. When the lab remained suspiciously empty through lunch without even a text from Newton, Hermann–purely out of worry for their research, which would suffer without Newton there, of course–marched ‘round to his bunk and knocked repeatedly on the door. Newton did not answer. Hermann debated retrieving the spare key Newton gave to him in case of emergencies, but decided, instead, to call it a day as well. If Newton was going to be so blase about work, then so could Hermann, by Jove.

Early evening, once Hermann’d already showered and dressed for bed, he received a message from LOCCENT informing him that Dr. Geiszler had tagged along with a team going out on a boat that morning at five to survey the Breach up close, and had, subsequently, fallen off the boat. Hermann scarcely waited to hear if they’d even managed to fish Newton out or not before he was out the door.

They had, it appeared, managed to fish Newton out.

Newton has the decency to hang his head, at least. “It was an accident,” he says.

Hermann swats at his shoulder again. Newton pouts. “What was? Deliberately not telling me you were going out, and in a storm at that?”

“Falling in,” Newton says, and then, in a rush, “It was windy, and I dropped my glasses on the deck and I was trying to find them, and there was a wave, and I kinda–” The noise Hermann makes–something akin to a small growl–clearly startles Newton, because he speaks even faster. “I was wearing a life vest, okay! I was only in the water for, like, five minutes tops. Tops. And I’m alive! So, no harm done?”

“No harm done,” Hermann echoes sarcastically, though his heart rate has gone down significantly since seeing Newton in one piece. He begins to fuss with Newton’s blanket. “Look at you. Didn’t they give you a towel first?” He presses the back of his hand to Newton’s forehead. “You’re freezing.”

“It’s sixty degrees out, Hermann,” Newton says, though he is shivering and leaning in to each one of Hermann’s touches. The moment the rain lets up a little, Hermann’s going to force him inside the lab at the side of the contraband space heater and wrap him up in three more blankets. Make him some tea. Now, with just the blanket from the emergency medical kit to work from, Hermann shoves Newton’s damp leather jacket off his shoulders and to take stock of the man, purposefully ignoring how see-through his usual white button up has become.

“And your glasses,” Hermann tsks, finally noticing their absence. Newton always seems strangely naked without his glasses. He tsks again. “Newton.”

“I have a spare pair!” Newton says, as if it makes the loss of them, expensive as it is to find anyone who’ll fill their prescriptions in a timely fashion these days, remotely better. Hermann adds that to his mental checklist of things to do: bundle Newton up by the space heater, make him tea, and go off to find the spare pair while Newton warms himself up. Newton fidgets. “Jesus. See, this is why I didn’t tell you I was going in the first place. I knew you’d get all–”

Hermann clenches the fingers of his left hand around one end of the blanket. “All what?”

“All pissy,” Newton says. “Like you are right now.”

“I’m only pissy,” Hermann shouts, and Newton winces, “because I thought you’d gone and gotten yourself drowned, and that I’d never–” He shuts his mouth. His cheeks feel hot. “I was worried about you,” he continues, moderately calmer.

“Oh,” Newton squeaks. “…You were?”

“Of course I was,” Hermann says.

There’s a tense moment of silence. Then Newton reaches out, very carefully, and covers Hermann’s right hand (still clutching the slippery head of his cane) with his left. He’s gazing at Hermann with wide eyes. Hermann swallows. “Newton–”

“Hey,” a crewman says, suddenly appearing over Newton’s shoulder, “you know, you guys aren’t technically supposed to be here–”

Newton drops his hand. “Sorry,” he says. He scrambles off the edge of the boat to the concrete of the base’s dock as Hermann stands, dazed and useless. “Uh, let’s–”

Hermann shakes himself. “Let’s get you inside,” he finishes. His face feels hotter than before.

“Inside,” Newton agrees. “Yeah.”

hey i'm the person who said they're psyched to read prisoners' dilemma and my absolute fave thing about scouring your tumblr for updates is seeing the most precious, sweet, tender-hearted domestic posts and then getting to the bottom and seeing it tagged with 'kidnapping au'

Pffft!! Yup, that’s it, that’s the fic!!

I’ve gotten bogged down in it which is a real shame because it’s just a the point of pivoting from like, “A nightmare from which neither Newt or Hermann seem able to wake” to “Well this really sucks but at least we have each other and also there’s room for domesticity and jokes and sometimes we’re even able to forget the monsters controlling Newt’s every move and the fact if we don’t do something the world might end.” And I’m so desperate to get to that part of the story.

i'm always looking for video game recs (even when my wallet really says i shouldn't and i just stare at my wishlist in steam longingly), but you have really cool opinions and i know you play games, so i was wondering what some of your favourites are? i'd be happy to see your thoughts on any type of game but recommendations for more obscure games are extremely appreciated too!

i mean that’s pretty broad! my favorite games are often popular stuff - your first party nintendo releases, your undertales, your shovel knights. but lemme take a look at my steam library and try to pick out some gems to recommend, since there IS a big sale on there rn

celeste - celeste just came out and is popular but it’s also so good… i enjoy difficult-but-fair platformers like this and vvvvvv and super meat boy and stuff, and i think this has to be my favorite. really accessible (it’s as hard as you want it to be, really), great atmosphere, SHOCKINGLY good and sincere story

crypt of the necrodancer - this also isn’t exactly an obscure game, but it’s my favorite roguelike by far. the rhythm-based gameplay is just too good, and like come on, this game comes with what, five remixes of its own soundtrack, that you can swap to whenever? it’s so cool

dustforce - really underrated platformer with a super chill soundtrack all about fluid movement. you play as a janitor and run around sweeping dust and leaves and whatnot off the surfaces of the platforms. once you get a feel for the movement it’s SO fun

freedom planet - it’s easy to compare this game to sonic, but the limited health and the melee attacks mean this game also has a lot of focus on combat and very very fun boss fights

spark the electric jester - also sonic-esque! this was made by the devs of my favorite sonic fangame ever, sonic after the sequel. it’s super super good - i think it’s kind of underselling it to describe it as “sonic meets kirby” but that’s not a bad way to pitch it

lovely planet - honestly one of my favorite shooters. every level is very short (and rendered in a low-poly, almost katamari-esque art style) and requires you to run through quickly and shoot a small number of enemies precisely. it feels so cool when you nail the midair 360 noscopes they want you to pull off. also that soundtrack

2064: read only memories - a snatcher-esque cyberpunk vn/adventure game with great characters and writing. VERY gay. also lots of fun flavor text from trying to use different items on different things which i live for

creepy castle - super low fidelity but very cute adventure rpg thing. think like, zx spectrum graphics. you play as cute bugs and the combat is done via a series of neat little minigames. very fun writing

diaries of a spaceport janitor - i honestly still… need to play this one. it’s hard to describe, just go check it out

owlboy - GORGEOUS 2d platformer. plays kind of like a sidescrolling zelda, where you can fly around freely and carry around your friends as part of the gameplay. owlboy is just super good y’all

okay that’s actually a lot… uh also i have a backloggery account where you can see like every game i own and what i rated them out of five stars so that might help if you want even more recs

for the dnd character ask thing, it's kind of awkward because i can probably guess/know most of miri's and patrin's either haven't been revealed or would be ~~spoilers~~ and you're kinda keeping him close to the chest atm. but i'll ask some anyways i guess! for patrin: 4, 24, 26; for miri: 14, 15; for both: 12, 13, 17, 25, 27, 28. you don't have to answer all of them if you don't want of course.

Haha jokes on you I love to talk about myself and my characters are an extension of myself. (Cut because this is, admittedly, very long.)

Patrin Lvl3 (I think. We didn’t hit 4 yet, did we???) Eldritch Knight

4. Are they formally trained or have they gone through a more organic learning experience for their skillset?Hah. Organic. Very.

24. Do they have any interesting skills?Well I think the fact that he can fucking mjolnir summon his weapon is pretty fucking interesting, but like, characterwise… he’s a leatherworker?? Idk he’s not a super interesting dude.

26. Expansion of civilization or the preservation of nature?That’s a hard one. I wanna say expansion of civilization? Because his main thing is Protecting People, and that lawful good shit would probably see civilization as the best way to do that.

12. What’s their favorite beverage?Probably a nice hearty ale. He’s a boring ass middle aged man like that.

13. If they can use magic, what’s their favorite spell?Patrin… has spells. That is a thing that he has. He has yet, in the… two? sessions we’ve had, used them. He’s not a fan of magic. Unless you count summoning his weapon. Because that shit is boss.

17. What’s their favorite food?Something nice and simple and homey. Some traditional dragonborn dish that reminds him of home and family and easier times.

25. Favorite animal?Horses? Cows? Some other practical animal? Patrin is a simple dude. No wait, I take it back. He has a soft spot for songbirds for Reasons I will not reveal due to my fellow players probably reading this. (Also this gives him a tie to Miri, which I totally did not intend, but I love regardless.)

27. They’re at a tavern. They bump into a big burly angry drunk with a combative attitude. What happens?He would probably try to talk the person down, fail, and then beat the shit out of them as soon as they threw a punch. But nicely! Unless they threatened someone he cared about.

28. What do they do between quests?Grieve. That’s all I can really say without giving away backstory things. Patrin is consumed and driven by his grief. It is in every action he takes.

Miri Lvl7 Bard

14. Most heroic thing they have ever done?Oh shit, that’s a good question for Miri. I guess that fight where we shoved the dwarves in the bags of holding and fuckin ran to avoid a tpk? Which doesn’t sound heroic when explained like that, but Miri isn’t generally one to risk her life for other people, but she did, for her friends.

15. Most despicable thing they have ever done? Probably sending that poor dude to his death. (Which wasn’t entirely her fault! All he was supposed to do was lie to his boss!) But basically she unceremoniously pierced his ear then shoved him away to lie to the big bad he had been working for. (And she did feel a bit bad about it when he got killed, not that she’d ever admit it.)

12. What’s their favorite beverage?Depends on her mood. She does enjoy a good hard liquor like whiskey, especially in bad times, but she’s a sucker for a nice sweet wine too.

13. If they can use magic, what’s their favorite spell?DIMENSION DOOR. I’ve only had it for like, the last two sessions and Miri has already used it like 3 times? Miri is squishy af and she knows it, so being able to bamf out when necessary is fuckin great. Not to mention she is still very invested in saving her own skin, so.

17. What’s their favorite food?Meat. Miri is very much a meat and potatoes person like me. She loves red meat and salty, fatty foods. It’s a byproduct of being technically homeless for most of her life. She’s drawn to filling foods.

25. Favorite animal?Rats, obviously. In addition to her baby Ilmater endearing her to rats, she still sees herself as sort of a street rat of society. An unwanted pest that they allow to exist, as long as she doesn’t make too much trouble, because it would take more effort to get rid of than is worth it.

27. They’re at a tavern. They bump into a big burly angry drunk with a combative attitude. What happens?DISTRACTION! Miri would probably give ‘em the old razzle dazzle (in whatever way necessary, up to and including turning that anger on a random passerby) until they forgot that they were pissed at her, and failing that, she would call in Ovak to be her muscle

28. What do they do between quests?Currently? There hasn’t been a time between quests long enough for Miri to really DO anything, but if there was, she would take that time to freak the fuck out. There are so many gods, and they’re expected to kill a couple of them, and her family is apparently a part of a long line of very evil people?? yet there is a litERAL GOD CHOOSING HER AS HIS CHAMPION WHAT THE FUCK. It’s a lot to take in. Miri is overwhelmed.
