Personally still find leopard seal scarier than orca, mostly because of the terrifying noises they make. At least orca sing a little song
Leopard seals I would not be as scared to be in a locked room/tub enclosure with tho even though ik they have some ferocious chompers. Whalesong is beautiful but I am simply pissing myself and dying if I’m with an orca. Sorry.

fun fact: the water cellar is emptied every 25 years or so! :D
it was last emptied in june 2018 and april 1993, which isn't quite 26 years. but-
...oh wait, it's emptied every 15 years? but 2018-15 is 2003 and that minus 15 is 1988! that's not-
....................................
i guess it's emptied every 10 years even though 2018 and 1993 can't possibly equal that???
let's just say the water cellar is emptied every once in a long while and leave it at that! ;)

Writers ask if you're still answering these lol
1 (bc I'm a sucker for fonts idk why)
25 (any dollhouse character)
Thank you💜
wassuuuup babieeeee!!! let's get it!
1. What font do you write in? Do you actually care or is that just the default setting?
i usually write in the default setting on docs, which is calibri, right? but often, especially when i am tired, i will edit in comic sans, because it is easier for me to read (dyslexia, yay!!!) and when i do screencaps for fics, i switched over to times new roman bc i feel like a serif font is more widely approachable than a sans serif? idk if that's true, but that's what i learned 84 years ago when i was a graphic design student lolol.
25. What is a weird, hyper-specific detail you know about one of your characters that is completely irrelevant to the story?
Dollhouse Yoongi once nearly drowned as a kid, at someone's pool (he can't quite remember, but he thinks it may have been a family friend.) his parents were nearby, but not close enough to see him flailing when he became too tired from swimming and started to sink. luckily, he remembered from swim class to try to relax and slowly paddle his hands and feet, and he managed to float to the top on his back and slowly made his wat to the edge, to hold on.
send me some weird asks!
