how do you make new words in your conlang? like, is there any specific process you use to make up a good sounding word orrr
I try to really think about the object, and how it "feels" to Clan cats. If something is soft, I use soft sounds, if something is dangerous, I use growling sounds.
For animals, it's almost always a feline-ized onomatopoeia. For example, the sound of a wood pigeon,
youtube
Hoo-HOO-hoo(hoohoo) became "hoowoohoo" in Clanmew. They would call this animal by the sound it makes, because they are hunters. That's how they know one is in the area.
For plants, I consider its use, where it grows, any sounds it would make as the wind brushes it. There are two kinds of heather they would experience, so I have very different names for them.
Common Heather is tall, shrubby, used in construction and is fire resistant. So that one is "ssinb".
Bell Heather is fragrant, an attractor of bees and pollinators, and softer. So that one is "wish".

Realizing as of late while Getter has it far better then a lot of other mechas I’ve been seeing a bit lately not a lot of people know the trio shot in arma ep 11 is getter nor do I think people realize it’s a mecha so I made this meme as a little joke. (also before anyone comes correcting me: yes Benkei isn’t the OG getter 3 pilot, it’s Musashi. However the point still pretty much stands as he’s kinda just Musashi 2.0 lmao-even if arma fleshed him out a lot to be different-and this is the most noteworthy iteration, but in terms of recognition they’re on the same level)

My DND character figured out last session that he had Dark Vision.
This was not the moment in which he figured it out.

Not sure if this has been suggested before but what do you think about a DP x DC Cross where the JL discover Amity because the "It's Not Gay if he's Dead" joke escapes containment into mainstream? Also I love your blog! You're awesome.
aaaaa thank you sm hun! I really appreciate that :D I'm glad you enjoy my funky lil blog!
And now, I threw this idea at a fellow who is simply me with prompts but even more unhinged and they wrote a thing. I present to you, This:
------
Escaping containment implies that the content got leaked somehow. 
Maybe after so long with dealing with ghosts on their own, especially with ghosts that can control and use tech the people of Amity Park decide to self isolate. Phantom and Red Huntress are considered the only main heroes allowed in Amity, one out of pride and two out of concern of a ghost possessing an foreign hero. 
There was a fight and the tech isolation software glitched or a satellite picks up something on accident, letting a small leak occur. Nothing major, just a small joke. 
A blurry photo of a white haired teenager with a fancam like edit around him and the words "It's Not Gay if he's Dead." 
Which on its own wouldn't have taken off very much on the internet, but someone pointed out that the teenager was wearing what was very obviously a hero outfit. Leading to people wondering just who exactly this hero is or was. 
So they dig, and it turns out the “one” leak wasn't the only one to happen. 
The internet finds out there's not just one meme. There's hundreds of them. All originating from a single midwestern city and mostly focused around one person, the white haired teenager that is referred to as Phantom in most memes. 
Theres edits of a female musician with bright blue hair with text saying “that moment when a dead girl is your bisexual awakening” and “Its not a crush on a villian if shes not alive.” 
There's even photos of these slime-like creatures. With dozens of different memes referring to them. Varying from calling them green pigeons, to talking about tossing them like a sports ball.  
Theres even a photo of Dash and most of the football team are wearing group shirts that all say “It's Not Gay if he's Dead” with Phantoms logo on it, half as a joke and half because some of them would definitely date Phantom if they could. 
It's not even the Justice League that finds the jokes first, it's the younger generation of heroes. 
(It's how Tim asks Kon for a date. He sends a meme with Danny getting flunged in the worlds most tumbling superhero pose with the below text "It's not gay if he's dead." Tim immediately sends another text "But it is gay if he's an alien, 10pm picnic date?")
The different memes get passed around, none of them taking them that seriously, until it gets to Batman. One of the memes is sent in the bat group chat by one of the Bat kids to ask Jason about getting group Batburger later. “If your hero’s dead its not gay, it’s just hero worship, even if you want to meet him behind the Nasty Burger.” 
It's the hyper specific wording that gets Batman to look into it. He only finds the memes, nothing else. No town called Amity Park, no hero called Phantom, no trace outside of a reference to a defunct and wiped completely clean government branch and references to a nonexist law. 
This leads him to contact the Justice League, including the JL Dark, for a meeting. 
Surprisingly quite a few members recognize the teen outside of the memes. Flash, Captain Marvel, Wonder Woman, Martian Manhunter, Aquaman, and some of the JLD. The Flash refuses to say anything due to timeline continuum dangers. Wonder Woman, Aquaman, and Martian Manhunter mention someone like him appearing in ancient texts, but nothing beyond that. The JLD that know are physically and contractually unable to say much beyond Phantom being a hero and very important. 
It’s Captain Marvel that genuinely knows anything about him. “That's Danny, he's pretty cool. He's even helped me out a few times!”
The rest of the JL are surprised, Marvel gets more questions and answers some of them. He doesn't share the knowledge that he's helped Billy at handling the whole secret child hero thing, and that he's welcome in Amity. Just enough information to make the League stop looking into Phantom, Ember, Cujo, all of Amity. 
It works, mostly. 
Batman has never been one to let sleeping dogs lie…

I feel like people are conflating continuing the joke with invading their privacy… like no one is stalking them or sneaking pictures or bothering their friends and family asking about them we’re just continuing their joke that they set up within our fandom space. Which is exactly as we should be doing imo
yeah exactly. like i think when outsiders dont understand that we are in on the bit that makes some sense, but when it's PHANNIES especially phannies who joined post coming out???? it seems strange.
oh i didnt really explain why this kinda behavior is homophobic as well. (disclaimer: me calling an action homophobic is not the same as me calling an individual homophobic.) a lot of ppl use pj and sophie as a direct comparison straight couple example. pj has only directly called sophie his girlfriend once, and it was in the context reading someone's poorly written article about him lmao. otherwise, its known that they met in uni, have lived together since then, have worked on nearly every kickthepj project together, and generally their on screen energy is really sweet and funny. they also have a cat together and call themselves a family. it's not a stretch to say they're together in the slightest. in fact, it is just natural to assume so.
BUT when dnp who are now publicly out, have been very open about how much they mean to each other, have lived together since dan was in uni, have worked on nearly every project together (even in solo projects the other would help out behind the scenes), have a clear on camera chemistry together, had co-parented a fish, a pigeon, and several houseplants and possibly plan to get a dog or other pet in the future... suddenly it's wrong to assume anything.
i understand the fear that may come from having been in the phandom since when they were closeted and it was much harder to talk about it without seeming like youre aligned with stalkers or ppl who harassed their families or dnp themselves to reveal more information, but thats not the case anymore, and ESPECIALLY if you discovered them post-gay, it's such a flimsy argument to say anyone is breaching privacy in that way.
now there are still some like unspoken basic decency and boundary rules. you probably shouldnt be @'ing them in your smutfics or even your pretty innocent theories about them being super duper in gay love. dnp themselves understand that if they aren't being @ tagged in something, it's probably not meant for them to see, and even acknowledged that in the twitter memes video. but us talking about it in our own spaces, especially on tumblr where they arent on as much but also on twitter BECAUSE THEY KNOW THAT THEYRE NOT MEANT TO SEE IT, is not the same as being like hey @/danielhowell @/amazingphil do you fuck nasty i gotta know if you fuck nasty. (but even if i were to do that, i feel like its very clearly a joke lmao)
so like just dont worry about it, if you still personally dont like seeing ppl talk abt this stuff regardless, you can mute and block people, you can blacklist tags, you can curate your own experience to fit your needs and you dont need to harass other people into suiting your needs.

okay, friend, help me out here. acok, jon i, jeor mormont is explaining maester aemon's backstory to jon and mistakenly claims that aerys i married his sister. awoiaf says that aelinor penrose was aerys i's cousin. jon mistakenly being told that a cousin is a sister...that a man married his sister rather than his cousin. is this...jonsa? [insert meme of man pointing at pigeon]
i actually wonder ALL THE TIME if this was a purposeful slip, ie, he had always planned for Aelinor to be a Penrose by birth and not a Targaryen, but wanted to introduce a kind of muddled history to Say Something - maybe about how much The Average Person doesn’t give a shit about The Game Of Thrones? About how the Targaryens were incest marrying so much, everyone just assumes all the marriages were brother-sister even when they weren’t? Perhaps hinting at how the Targaryen descent women often remarried back into the family tree, which did have the unfortunate effect of continuing to isolate them politically bc they have no cousin branches anywhere defending them? OR IS IT A WEIRD JONSA HINT LIKE JONNEL & SANSA???? - or if George pre Elio & Linda was like “fuck i can’t find that family tree i wrote up, I think I threw it away, lemme just redo it real quick I think that’s how it looked” and messed it up or pulled a “baby Daenerys” thing and just straight up added another child For The Themes bc he doesn’t give a shit about continuity akskdjdj THERES SO MANY OPTIONS HERE AND I WILL CHOOSE THE ONE THAT MAKES ME HAPPIEST UNTIL GEORGE HIMSELF TELLS ME ITS INCORRECT AKSKDJ

ten first lines/last ten fics meme
Tagged by @feralrookie! (Thank you!! :D)
I am also going to use a few of my current WIPs here because a) I don’t have 10 published fics and b) if I include Torn to Pieces in this I’m going to want to tear my own face off, because from the very first line it is painfully obvious I hadn’t read Storm Bringer yet alsksjdjfjf
1. 5 times Chuuya attempted high school romance tropes + 1 time Dazai realized what was going on (WIP)
During the first incident, Dazai almost convinced himself was hallucinating — it was only later, when his bottom lip began to bruise, that he truly internalized what had happened.
2. High school play(Snow White) AU (WIP)
Of course, the one time Chuuya got the chance to play a lead role, Dazai had to be there to ruin it.
3. Vampire Chuuya oneshot (WIP)
“Executive Nakahara Chuuya-kun has been hit by an unidentified ability.”
4. Skyline Pigeon (WIP)
Silhouetted against the stark blue sky, an albatross soared in gentle circles without so much of a flap of its wings, blissfully unheeding of the violence below.
5. My rider keeps horsing around with the Demon Prince! (WIP)
My name is Sheep, and I am a horse.
6. An Unsent Letter
The letter was spotted with dried smears of blood and odd drops of water.
7. Dazai and the Moving Detective Agency
Once upon a time, there was a boy who caught a falling star.
8. This is how it feels to take a fall
There was too much blood.
9. Plate :(
Crack.
Dazai stares down at the chipped plate in his hands, unblinking.
10. Zut alors! I have missed one!
The ocean was a lot of things, but above all, it was vast, and generally quite silent.
Open tags on this one! :D if anyone sees this and feels like doing it, consider yourself tagged!

List of very specific nostalgia things
Web game where everyone was a pastel blob, with a cut scene at the beginning showing you coming to an island from a cruise. Then it becomes (I think) a scooby doo type of game but not scary where you interact with others. I remember there being also a hotel, otherwise the island looked pretty empty.
Animated ninjago meme compilations, very old, very visibly made by a child (however you could see a huge potential). I specifically remember cooking by the book animation? Kawaii Zane and i think something cute thing Lloyd. I fucking loved them when I was a child. I think I read somewhere from the author that they used sketch-something program for animations and I tried using it but it was paid.
Harry Potter game, and i remember only the part where you were in a dark forest or something and you had to move a huge rock or something. I think it was based of a part where they were already much older. I remember the game to be quite detailed but i may be very wrong. I think the camera was just locked at one point.
Feary: Legends of Avalon. I found the title but there's no way for me to pirate it haha so I just have it favorited on my steam.
Minecraft by zyczu, Pet Party (it has like a billion names, you can find it on android now. It's laggy as hell tho), Avataria (its also on android), the game where you make an island with two zombies, The Sims 2, Margonem, Papatka, Hugo
That one very specific korean hair styling game
That one (flash i think) game where you make cement and place bricks????? I swear it's real 😭. I think it had pixel art, like a simple shit kind.
Slime game where you're a slime and you change colors of a city? Kinda like splatoon I guess? I remember specifically playing it on my cousin's PC. I remember a train... The whole city was gray....
One wizard game that I also played on his PC, a platformer, 2d, I remember cool music, the art style was kinda grunge I think, but it was very satisfying.... Ahh I don't remember much more. It was happening at night....
Mmorpg game where there are rovers or cars it was on some shitty looking space base?? Also the one with magical stuff + the pigeon game that one youtuber made a video about
Barbie 2d driving game. It was shit you needed to pick up some bitches in some specific time frame.

ok i got thoughts on leafs contract negotiations and they may be unpopular... or you're just not interested, which is actually v smart bc it only ever makes ur blood boil to get riled up over something u have 0% control over. Just not a smart way to live life
AM34 does not deserve to be the highest paid player in the league. puhleeeeez *rolling my eyes in natemac* this is a salary cap league and he barely comes in clutch in the playoffs. Like what nonsense world are we operating in rn dude
Bunts isn't going to get re-signed by Leafs and i think that's a good thing for him. He got more eyes on him here in Toronto after arizona and now needs to go build his own rep outside of here cuz rn he gots leafs stank on him practically a stigma. His style of play and willingness to defend his teammates is seen as a negative by the league when that's a prized trait on any other team. So yea time for him to fly the coop he needs to go off into the land and show the refs and league what a dedicated and devoted team player he is and stop fuckin picking on him (that playoffs 3-game suspension would've been 1-2 anywhere else; that was penalization for being a leaf. george parros career ended vs the leafs so we get pigeon-shit on at every turn)
Willy deserves to think he should be in the range of the salaries of am, mm, jt. Only gd fella who shows up for the playoffs and continuously improves and just had his best season and scored on par w AM. If he doesn't get it here its leafs own fault for having set their stars' salaries that high compared to other teams when u know you're operating under a salary cap (yes yes i know it's harder to attract & keep stars on Canadian teams). I want the best for willy and if he doesn't get it here then yes go get ur bag elsewhere styles. This unbothered king will not be affected and will give it his all wherever he is. But he is thru n thru Toronto style and loves it here and i hope we get to keep him bc i love him and want to keep him in my tiny Toronto condo
Mitchy is our best player. Anyone in any of the comments of any post/tweet/article on leafs contracts who says mm should be traded for the cap relief-- why would we trade the singular player who makes everyone else on the ice better omfg with u idiots i cannot anymore pls gtfo
JT is only now returning to form after that scary injury. 21-22 season was a wash for him returning from that and no one should've been saying shit about him. 22-23 he showed his worth. Truly beautiful stuff. Yes he's overpaid but yea we're stuck w that. Idk. Also he needs to step up on the team culture side of things and get his ducklings in a row; he may be too much of a disciplined parent to be in the loop w the core. Maybe this season connecting w knies in his basement will get him back down w his ppl [insert "how goes it fellow teens" skateboard meme]
There's a 50/50 chance of keeping ROR and my goodness that would be an enthralling coup. His entire short leafie stint he maintained an outsiders perspective and w his keen experienced eye observed shit. The leafies have a history of learning from and bonding deeply w these short-term elders dubas would bring in for playoffs... It would be incredibly useful for the core to become one w ROR and truly embrace his drive on the ice. (also ror u haven't kissed jt firmly on the lips yet after winning the cup together so like idk where u think ur going)
Schenn... All i can say is ty ty ty for coming in embracing this place like the home its always been for u and instilling such a sense of family and comraderie. Like wtf do u mean these dumdum idiots never before did team dinners during playoff away games until u came along????!??!???? They never heard of getting on the same page???? That kinda stuff translates right to the ice. Like i don't even play team sports anymore and i could tell u that. Pls stay. Pls let treliving & shanny understand how valuable u are to team culture. And you're the other half of Mo🥺🫶😭
I love Mo and he should never be let go ever and i fear the day will come when we are all old and graying when they will set him free on an ice drift a la Avs EJ and i will cry enough to shut the city down from flooding and the subway will go out of order.
Ok phew glad to empty my brain of these idiots for a bit while we wait for news instead of speculation. ty for reading if u did💙 GLG😭

What is a favorite fact that you like but feel like you never have a chance to share? More than one favorite is also totally acceptable.
A favorite fact? 🤔
I can't remember if this is for an ask meme, is it supposed to be a fact about me, a fact about my fic, or just a general fact?
Why is my brain drawing a blank right now?
The mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell.
Ok, so a general fact: the way you see carrier pigeons or messenger hawks portrayed sometimes, like the mail service or Harry Potter style owls, isn't actually how it works.
A messenger bird is like an express train line- it can only go to one place, no stops, no detours.
See, each bird has its home roost, where it gets fed, where is sleeps (say, a castle). People leaving the castle for somplace else (say, an army camp) could take a caged bird with them, and, when they needed to, release it with a message, and the bird would return home to the castle. But, it wouldn't be able to carry a return message. You would need a different bird, that considered the army camp home but had been taken to the castle, in order to send a reply.
(An extra fact: pigeons are a domesticated species. All the ones you see in cities are technically stray/feral, not wild. Humans just turned them loose when we got more reliable methods of communication, and they've managed to muddle along without owners, like feral cat colonies.)
