amusing myself with a little snippet of SVSSS lore that I may not ever end up using for fic purposes:
In the world of Proud Immortal Demon Way, there is a special kind of symbiotic barnacle that grows along rocky beaches, the Bone White Bleached Teeth Barnacle. Its shells are ivory-white and come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes that are all roughly that of humanoid teeth. With the right techniques, these barnacles can be harvested, shaped and coaxed into acting as tooth implants that are visually and functionally indistinguishable from the human (or demon’s) original teeth.
The reason the Bone White Bleached Teeth Barnacle exists is that Airplane Shooting Towards The Sky really, really liked a particular dramatic turn of phrase in a combat scene where a character would take a punch across the jaw, slowly turn their head to the side and dramatically spit broken teeth fragments onto the ground. In fact he liked it so much and reused this phrase so often that some fans actually made a spreadsheet of how many times it had occurred in the course of PIDW and determined that Luo Binghe had lost at minimum 17 teeth throughout the story.
Airplane argued that Luo Binghe, with his Heavenly Demon nature, can simply regrow teeth at need (as can any of his demon wives.) But there were enough instances where a human wife had teeth punched out and then showed up in a later chapter with a perfectly intact pearly-white smile that he eventually had to cave.
Three chapters after the spreadsheet was posted, Luo Binghe had a dramatic showdown with a storm demon on a beach where it was specifically noted that a colony of Bone White Bleached Teeth Barnacle grew. Noted anti-fan Peerless Cucumber initially pitched a fit about this blatant ass-covering, until someone else in the forum drew a fanart of the scene. The resultant panorama, with thousands and thousands of humanish teeth growing in profusion along the jagged rocks with the roiling dark clouds in the background, was so unsettling that even Peerless Cucumber admitted that it was pretty fucking metal, actually.

re: that post about someone mistaking adrenaline for love though, I really do love that xue yang's experience is the precise opposite. he's over here like "it makes me feel good being around xiao xingchen, I get excited about spending time with him, his presence makes me all fluttery inside, must be about how much I hate him and want him to suffer"
he is good and correct about understanding feelings

Fun fact: Tolkien wrote some real gifts for fanfic writers in the appendices about very specific Elvish courtship and marriage rituals.
Obligatory reblog for larger sample size! You know, for science.

Fibromelanism in Chickens
Fibromelanism is unique to chickens. I haven't heard of instances of this in any other species.
Fibromelanism causes black skin, meat, bones and organs. Two chicken breeds that it is commonly found in are Ayam Cemanis and Silkies.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Trust me, I've butchered a Silkie before. Every organ is black. The blood isn't, of course.
Tumblr media
Fibromelanism is caused by an autosomal dominant gene, but it needs the id+ gene to express. The id+ gene is sexlinked recessive. Id+ enables a chicken to have slate legs, or even dark facial skin in the presence of other melanizers.
Some slate-grey legs stylishly exhibited by a young Queeny
Tumblr media
My hen, Starling exhibited a mulberry-colored face due to the interaction of id+ and other melanizers

a Gothic Romance by phlegmatic
Living.
A living organism is not in a state of decomposition. Its blood still pumps, and it is host to a community of bacteria. If the organism dies, it will no longer be able to control these bacteria, which will begin a new life.
Chapter I: In Threes
Chapter II: The Agreement
With his father on Death's door, his brother increasingly surly, and his fiancée pulling away, Captain Damianos Vasilias feels on the cusp of drowning beneath expectation. When tragedy strikes, he finds himself pulled to the depths of a world of sinister secrets and morbid memories—a Veretian Château hiding more than ghosts behind its many locked doors. Unlocking the past is the key to Damen's future, and his survival… and that of the reclusive, beautiful, intriguing young man who calls the Château home.

Okay so face reveal under the cut!!!
Trigger warning: my face.
Tumblr media
So this is me!!! *Plays Demi Lovato*
I’m gonna share some pics from yesterday with my lovely girls because it was a MONUMENTAL day for us after 4 years of uni, and I don’t think I would’ve made it this past year without them tbh.
Also they looked ravaging, I can’t help but share.
Tumblr media
Don’t they look lovely? So smart.
Tumblr media
We were so done with everyone you guys don’t understand.
So we went to a fancy restaurant and got shitfaced on wine.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
And that’s it. I woke up at 19:00 today, had soup for the hangover and now I’m off to meet my friend’s gf.
Also I don’t know what I’ll do with my future but we’re fine.

Tablet Theory: The exhibits don't actually get their historical figure's personality and memories, they get what the person who created them believes those memories and personality to be (or the more needlessly complicated but poetic version: they take on what museum visitors believe about them). This would only affect exhibits who were created by someone else, so it wouldn't apply to Ahk and his family (or Rexy/the other animals, but we wouldn't be able to tell either way).
This is how Teddy, who irl apparently said some fucked up things about Native Americans, was able to fall in love with Sacagawea. It could mean that mummy!Kahmunrah is more chill than wax statue!Kahmunrah. It could also solve the potential paradox of museum exhibits knowing things about themselves/their time periods that historians don't know (just ignore the end of NATM 1. It's my bedtime) and then sharing that with random people during the night program.
The way I'm explaining it being canonically stated (in the books I think) that the exhibits take on the memories and personalities of their irl counterparts is that that's from the perspective of Larry/Nick, who don't know that it's not quite right.

I'm reading a fic rn where Dean is a single dad of Emma, and they're talking about what Emma should call Cas, since Dean is already 'daddy'
And it's like, this is a four year old. You bet that kid would be like 'well, if you're daddy, then Cas is Caddy,' and then she'd have to explain that since Dean starts with a D and he's daddy, that means that Cas should be Caddy, because it starts with a C.
