so i did a deep dive today for this thank you for the new headcanon

i’m thinking yuán as in 猿 - 犭 = 袁

ape - animal radical = long cloth

like how 猻 - 犭 = 孫 = 孙 (simplified)

猻 is from 猴猻 hóusūn which means monkey

monkey - animal radical = grandson

孙悟空 • sūn wùkōng • grandson awakened to nothingness

袁巫支祁 • yuán wūzhīqí • long cloth great shaman/witch/sorcerer/wizard to support/bear/sustain

if you look at old chinese paintings of gibbons, they look like they have black bodies and white heads

btw i high recommend an evaluation of robert van gulik’s the gibbon in china and its place in modern sinological discourse on the academia app. it’s free and ripe with information about how gibbons were viewed and depicted in ancient china. robert’s book is damn expensive tho. i envy anyone who has their hands on it.

here’s an excerpt that surprised me:

The third theme is suggested in the following: “The gibbon is better than the monkey , the former is clean, gentle and recluse, the latter is dirty, noisy, greedy and vulgar” (“Mei yuan su hou”美猿俗猴) (TGIC 58). RvG thought this idea was pragmatic. Ancient Chinese literati like Wu Yun (“Poem of the Black Gibbon”) (TGIC 54-56), Li Deyu (“Poem of the White Gibbon) (TGIC 56-57), and Liu Zongyuan 柳完元 (773–819)21 (“Essay on the Hateful Monkey-breed” or “Zeng wangsun wen” 憎王孙文) (TGIC 54-56). Each compared the quarrelsome and volatile monkey with the aloof gibbon (TGIC 56). The lament is evidently directed against the people at court who caused their patron’s downfall (TGIC 57). Wu Yün, Li Deyu and Liu Zongyuan contrasted the violent and vulgar monkey with the high-minded and well-behaved gibbon. So the monkey is described as greedy, cruel and undependable, and ugly in appearance” (TGIC 57).

oh and the novel calls wūzhīqí great sage water ape… they were totally born from water. water egg? water womb?

and since it’s semi-popular in lmk fandom to make six-eared macaque a wind monkey due to the macaque king, that would leave red-buttocked horse monkey a fire monkey. red is the color of fire and the horse’s element is fire. in buddhism there are 4 great elements: earth, water, fire, and air so it all weirdly fits.

Oh damn you did such an AMAZING deep dive in both the language and history!! I adore it!!

I am aware the theory that Macaque King is the Six Ears is a common theory and with that the tie in with being the Great Sage of Ventilation, not just in LMK.

It would be cool if the Spiritual Primates had a connection to the elements, even if it is not the five. I actually forget that Buddism had its own elements that are technical since I always counted akasa/space.

But perhaps if the idea that each primate is also birthed from inanimate objects perhaps something like

Stone - Wukong

Pearl - Wuzhiqi / Gibbon

Magma - Baboon

Tree Root - Macaque (since air is also connected to wood in Chinese lore)

If they were ever to use the Gibbon as either the same Wuzhiqi from the Yuan Xiyouji she would be an amazing addition, or perhaps they could have used the Sage leaning background as well. In either case, there's so much history when it comes to both primate lore that I really think there can be a lot done with these findings

#anonymous #anon #jttw #anon ask #journey to the west #xiyouji #primordial primates #spiritual monkeys #celestial monkeys #fantastic read you suggested! #I hope I can get on that soon! #wuzhiqi #wu zhiqi #red bottom baboon #red bottom mandrill #red bottom horse monkey #long armed gibbon #bare armed gibbon #six eared macaque #ask

few hc's i have thunk😀

-kimi being the cool uncle taught gzd hoe to play pool (they still go play few games every now and then)

-kimi and his family adore her!! and kimi regularly talks to her despite being retired

-gzd love language being touch but she retains showing it too much bc of rumors

-fernando also sort of being cool uncle (and protective) because he likes her chaotic energy

-i see her being active in sense of liking fan edits on tiktok and liking memes fans create on twitter (she also sends them to the drivers if it includes them)

-if its a clean race (no questionable calls from fia or crashes between her and someone) she always looks happy and celebrates other people

-sosososososososo proud of mick when he got first points!!

-is spiritual(?) like tarot/astrology/palm readings etc. and talks about them with lewis!

i imagine people to love her and kimi's interactions, because of how different they are lol :) like she is the definition of chaos and being loud, while kimi is the iceman.

I ALSO THINK THAT! i know his daughter started karting and she ria would def look up to gzd, and ask kimi if she could come and watch one of her races <3

she def has to downplay her affection a lot when she is in public cause people often take it the wrong way and immediately go to making dating rumours :((

fernando is the weird drunk uncle and you cant convince me otherwise. like that one uncle youre told to stay away from lol

shes like charles, i imagine :) her likes on twitter, insta, tiktok, etc are a way of communication with the fans :)

i think whether its a ''bad'' race or not, she always tries to be as positive as possible cause it gives the others energy.

she's always proud of mickie <3

I GOT A REQUEST FOR THAT ONE!!! will start working on that soon!

have a nice day/night, lovely! xoxo

Hello chicken I've been following for a while and wondering if you have any guidance for "waking up" herbs? Maybe I'm looking at the wrong resources but I can't find anything about the subject.

I am recalling that "waking up" might be a term I sometimes use, but I don't really know if anyone else does. So if it happened that you started from my content and are looking outwards, that is probably why you aren't finding anything based on that term.

"Waking up" is not necessary if you believe there is always present and active spiritual power within the herbs you seek to employ in magic

Waking up is not necessary if you are going to charge the plant matter with your own energy or external energy

Waking up refers to contacting the plant spirit and evoking it back into its dead physical body. When I say it like that, it sounds like necromancy. Maybe it is.

The process required to "wake up" a plant spirit is based on both skill and relationship. You can get better at doing it in general, but it also becomes easier if the plant spirit likes you and wants to help you.

Many witches believe that there are methods to carefully harvest plants under special conditions that preserve the spirit within. This may be worth looking into if you harvest your own plants.

I am not saying that I perform this entire process from start to finish every time I evoke plant spirits in spell work. However, this process covers all the bases, so to speak; it is worth trying in its entirety to see if it works, before you modify it to your experience-based specifications.

"Waking up" plant spirits, or other spirits, back into their original bodies, by preparing their bodies with magic, and then evoking the spirit to a specific purpose:

Place the plant material in a place of honor (such as on an altar, or clean and tidy surface).

Perform a gentle cleansing on the plant material with the intention to wipe away magical and psychic grime that may have accumulated on the plant matter.

Perform an opening charm. This charm seeks to open the gates between our world and the spirit world so that spirits can travel back and forth. If you do not have an opening charm, perform whatever steps you take which inserts your voice into the spirit world.

Perform, as you desire, any rites or traditions you normally employ when you commune with the spirits. This is optional.

Perform an evocation in the following order. Please consider the intention behind each step, and think critically before removing any step of the evocation:

Call out to the spirit by name and ask it to arrive at your location.

List its aspects and virtues that you are in need of at this particular time.

Ask it for help.

Explain why you think it should help. (*4)

If you have not already done so in steps 3 and 4, explain your specific needs to the spirit and fill it in on the situation at hand.

Tell it specifically what you would like it to do within this spell. (*6)

Ask the spirit to return power to its physical body, and fill up that piece of plant matter with its own power.

Thank the spirit for its time and attention.

Then, the spell or whatever will be performed as normal using the ingredient.

(*4. The explanation as to why the spirit should help includes, "because I will pay you with an offering," but can also include, "because you are generous and benevolent, and help those in need," or even, "because it would be so fucking cool if we could pull this off, right?" Just stay in your lane and be honest.)

(*6. The spirits are not mind readers and do not have access to your exact desires and plans. Please make sure you actually tell them what you want them to do.)

Once the spell is complete, but before you close the roads, again thank the spirit for its time and attention. Ask the greater spirit to return to its abode, but to leave its power and blessing within the physical material you have worked with.

Before you close the roads, provide any promised offerings.

4, 9, and 14 for Theodonalus

And 6, 22, and 24 for Takhanobou!

And not from the Ask Game but how did you come up with their names? I think they’re really cool and unique!

Theodonalus:

4. What is something that they’re secretly good at? Do they have a hidden talent, such as being a brilliant kazoo player or a master chess wizard?

-Theo is an amazing singer! The Queynï are one of the few dragons who are capable of true song, and are famous for immortalizing history, folklore, and tales they pick up on their migration paths into long ballads. Theo pretty much never sings, since he's a self-selected outcast from his tribe, but his voice is exceptionally compelling and his storytelling immaculate. His relationship with his voice is somewhat conflicted, as it was his only feature that made the rest of his tribe pay a lick of attention to him other than considering him a pitiful dead-spirited dragon, but that particular gripe faded with time, and later legends came to claim that his voice had an ethereal, spellbinding quality to it.

9. Tell me your favorite moment with your OC. (Either that you wrote or drew.)

-Haven't written it yet, but it has to be when Theo goes claw-to-fang with Verada, Takhanobou's adoptive mother. To lure her into a blind rage, he mutilated the corpse of one of her new hatchlings (that died from neglect, but she was unaware of this fact), then spat the body out at her and mocked her, which enraged her so much that she locked her focus onto him, allowing Takhanobou the opening to leap onto her back and snap her neck

wait fuck, i forgot i doodled it

14. Does your OC have any superstitions? Good luck rituals? Do they believe in and/or practice the arcane arts?

-Dragons aren't really religious; they believe themselves to be the most powerful form of life at their apex, which means no gods for them. They do, however, have a very keen sense of the cycle between life and death, and believe that when they die, the creatures that feed on their corpse will take their life essence, and who they were will become one with the land, a belief that's pretty much exactly in line with how magic works in their world. Theo is more connected to this natural pulseline than most, but he never consciously tapped into it, nor was as reverent about it as the rest of his kin (when you grow up with everyone expecting you to die, and then viewing you as spiritually dead because you are incapable of flight, the first most important thing to your tribe, then you tend to not care as much about death as the rest of them, apart from being very determined not to meet it).

Takhanobou:

16. How organized is your OC? Do they like to have a place for everything and everything in its place, or do they live inside a tornado of chaos and mayhem?

-Taki is actually pretty damn neat, to the point where it would be considered obsessive-compulsive in our world. Part of this is because Verada wanted him to remain as scentless and pristine as possible (the better for him to look like an idealistic killing machine for her cause), but it's also just because he's naturally an orderly dragon who likes his living space to be clean. He is far more diligent about dragging old bones and meat out of the den than Theodonalus, and when they finally settle in a place that allows for a courtship-hoard to be accumulated, he makes sure that its always neatly arranged and carefully placed in an area that makes it easy to defend- anything less will make him anxious. The sole exception to this rule is during or after battles, where he will stalk around with blood crusted all over him and his wounds still seeping blood, a display done with the sole purpose of scaring the everloving shit out of any other dragons in the nearby vicinity.

22. If your OC were a real person, would you be friends with them? Why or why not?

-Lmao hell to the fuck no. All my ocs are my property to arrange and mutilate as I wish. All my enjoyment of characters in general comes entirely from the fact that they are fictional narrative tools. I do not want my life to intersect with my own.

that being said i do have a self insert in my own universe (two actually, bc i am god) who is khazari, and i am half the size of taki at his adult age. if i got into a fight with him- and i would- he would fucking kill me. no thank you.

24. What is your OC’s favorite food? Can they cook it? Where do they get their food? (And most importantly, do you feed your OCs enough? Don’t forget to throw them a meal once in a while.)

-Taki's favorite food is gazelle, as I said! And no, he cannot cook it, though this is not his fault in the slightest. He either eats it raw, or he devours it in the manner that all fire dragons, which is burned to cinders on the outside and raw as fuck on the inside. Sometimes half raw half charred, depending on if he chose to kill it with fangs and talons or with flame. He hunts all of his own food, though Theo does half of the hunting after they become mates, and pretty much only starts eating enough/healthily after he's exiled from the Isles. Part of this is because there was a famine going on in that part of the world, and part of it was that Verada was forcing him to hunt on his own instead of collaboratively with her and the rest of his nestlings, which sharpened his wits and killing skill at the expense of gurenteed meals. I mean, he probably got more nutrition in him than his 'siblings'- eating a variety of small prey compared to the macrofauna that his tribe normally eats means he got more of a range of food in him during harsh times- but it still wasn't enough. The Shurya-Khazhar also don't know how to fish, as they are an inland locale of fire dragons whose large, bulky frames are more suited for taking down large prey, so Theo teaching him how to fish also helped quite a bit.

(Interestingly, spineback boar is his least favorite type of meat, despite it being favored prey of the Khazari. This becomes less surprising when one realizes that Verada only fed him spineback when he failed his hunts, which means that he associated its taste heavily with failure and her cold disapproval.)

.

As for how I named them- I honestly cannot remember in the slightest, because I made them waaaay back in 2013. I just remember that 'Theodonalus' was meant to dance on the tongue while 'Takhanobou' was meant to be pronounced with a harsh growl. I can say, however, that Theo's name roughly translates to 'ghost wind rising' (aka 'soon to be dead'), while Takhanobou was named after the massive volcano that the Khazari believe the first of their kin to have risen from, and very roughly means 'cleansing destruction, fire of creation', though linguistic drift and fracture of the tribe into different subregions has caused some issues with translation

#Saturno-sol #my ocs #oc: takhanobou #oc: theodonalus #ask game #ask meme #reply #takis name becomes even more ominous when you realize why verada named him that :))) #honestly a lot of the names i come up with are just like that bc they sound nice to me #i come up with meanings for them later (as well as similarities in diction)

Thoughts from Yesterday

When you hear a beautiful bird song, you look up into the trees to see what little bird is producing such a sonorous sound, such a sonorous call, but you can never see it. You can never quite make it out. The most beautiful birds are exceptionally good at hiding. You can hear them, but you can never quite see where exactly the song is coming from.

Dark clouds feel ominous as they approach, but they have their own beauty. Still, they can give you a sense of “ψυχοπλάκωμα,” that is, something pressing on your soul, or an unnerving feeling of approaching doom. So what makes them beautiful?

You can appreciate their beauty by contrast – that is, by contrasting the dark heart of the human machine with the darkness you see in the clouds. The Machine brings desolation and destruction. The dark rain clouds also make you feel an approaching doom, yet when they finally arrive they water the Earth with their darkness and create life; they nourish life. They reflect a sadness, a melancholy, a shadow – but unlike The Machine, they’re pure and honest. There is no lying in them. Even when they block the sun you can find shelter and feel safe with them.

With their tears a great pressure is released, and you can exhale and breathe easy. You can aspirate that clean and cool air now free of the burden of that stifling humidity.

Darkness waters the Earth and gives birth to new life. The darkness of the human heart has become a perversion of that shadow – not a reflection. Perhaps at some time in the distant past the human heart was not so polluted and therefore it could better reflect.

The Machine does not gently tap on the soil, inviting new seeds to find the life within them and the courage to sprout; it does not soothe the fear of the little snails and help them to come out of their shells, out of their hidden exile into a familiar and welcoming awakening.

It lulls the snails into a false sense of security only to crush them. It strangles newborn babies in their cribs and makes escape impossible; even those few who managed to elude the sight of The Great Eye, whether by luck or pure chance, or simply by living in a way so as to not draw its attention, outside of its boundaries and sphere of influence – they too will soon be brought to heel.

No one will be able to escape, and therefore all will be forced to confront The Beast, whether by lowering their gaze in submission, or meeting The Monster’s stare head-on, seeing it for what it truly is, and daring to declare to it openly and defiantly that “This is my Last Stand. From this point on I shall not take not one step back.”

Shakespeare’s maxim “To be, or not to be: that is the question” will become more vital and relevant than ever, for to choose authentic being will mean certain death, while to accept a premature spiritual death will grant you the allowance of some meager living.

A Rich History

Amethyst's history can be traced back to ancient times. Its name is derived from the Greek word "amethystos," which means "not intoxicated." Ancient Greeks believed that wearing amethyst jewelry would protect them from drunkenness, making it a popular choice for wine goblets and jewelry worn by royalty.

In ancient Egypt, amethyst was associated with protection and was often incorporated into jewelry and amulets. Romans also valued this gemstone, and it was considered one of the most precious gemstones alongside diamonds, sapphires, and rubies.

Amethyst's association with spirituality continued through the Middle Ages. It was believed to possess healing properties and was used in religious and mystical contexts. In Renaissance Europe, amethyst was a symbol of royalty and was frequently used in the crowns, rings, and necklaces of monarchs and nobility.

The Radiant Properties of Amethyst

What makes amethyst jewelry truly special are its unique properties. Amethyst is a type of quartz, and its striking purple color ranges from pale lavender to deep violet. This color is attributed to the presence of iron and aluminum impurities within the crystal lattice. The most sought-after amethyst stones exhibit a rich, saturated purple hue.

One of amethyst's most celebrated properties is its association with tranquility and inner peace. It is often referred to as the "stone of sobriety" due to its historical belief in helping individuals overcome addiction. Amethyst is said to have a calming effect on the mind and can aid in stress reduction and relaxation. Many people wear amethyst jewelry to promote a sense of balance and emotional well-being.

Another fascinating characteristic of amethyst is its spiritual significance. It is considered a stone of spiritual awakening and enlightenment. Amethyst jewelry is often used in meditation and spiritual practices to enhance one's connection to higher consciousness and promote clarity of thought.

Versatility in Jewelry

Amethyst's versatility makes it a favorite among jewelry designers and wearers alike. Its appealing color complements both warm and cool skin tones, making it a versatile choice for any occasion. Here are some popular forms of amethyst jewelry:

Amethyst Rings: Amethyst rings are a classic choice, often featuring a single amethyst gemstone as the centerpiece. They can be worn as engagement rings, cocktail rings, or everyday accessories.

Amethyst Necklaces: Amethyst pendants and necklaces showcase the gem's beauty close to the heart. They come in various styles, from minimalist designs to intricate statement pieces.

Amethyst Earrings: Amethyst earrings add a touch of elegance to any outfit. They come in studs, dangles, and hoops, catering to various preferences.

Amethyst Bracelets: Amethyst bracelets are believed to promote emotional balance when worn on the wrist. They can be worn individually or stacked with other bracelets for a trendy look.

Amethyst Brooches: Vintage amethyst brooches are a timeless accessory, often passed down through generations as heirlooms.

Caring for Your Amethyst Jewelry

To ensure your amethyst jewelry retains its luster and beauty, proper care is essential. Here are some tips:

Gentle Cleaning: Clean your amethyst jewelry with warm, soapy water and a soft brush. Avoid harsh chemicals or ultrasonic cleaners, as they can damage the stone.

Avoid Extreme Heat: Amethyst can lose its color when exposed to prolonged heat or sunlight, so store your jewelry in a cool, dark place when not in use.

Minimize Contact: Protect your amethyst jewelry from scratches by storing it separately from other jewelry.

Regular Inspection: Periodically inspect your jewelry for loose stones or damage, and have any necessary repairs done promptly.

WHY? P3

15. Mirror - My big vanity mirror was given to me by my parents for my birthday which I was so grateful for, I used to use a cheap one on the inside of an eyeshadow palette, so the upgraded was super needed and it has been well loved, it was also super meaningful that my parents got it for me as it felt like they really loved and appreciated my art form and what I do, I use it pretty much everyday and is a needed part of most of my art practises. 16. My Ariel doll - I have quite the collection of Ariel dolls now, but one of my favourites is the one that my friend also has - Shes the one from the newest movie and as one of my main compositions and subject matters when it comes to drawing and painting is mermaids, I like how she consistently provides inspiration and also memorabilia of when me and my friend went to see the film in cinema and went to the Disney premiere. 17. Crystals - Crystals are one of the main ways I have decorated the space in my room, they feel very peaceful and spiritual to me and also remind me of my mum who has gifted me lots of hers, arranging them all in my room is super important to me and I love how they fill my space. 18. Design and illustration books - Some of my favourite illustration and graphic design books really help fuel my creativity and give me the drive with my studies and outside of uni design commissions and work, I love Ellen Luptons books on type - I've learnt alot from those as typography was something I really struggled with but found alot of enjoyment in, I feel like I can always resort back to these when im stuck or need some motivation with type, I also have a few illustrative books that show the beautiful illustrations of Hans Christen Andersen's The Little Mermaid, its a great read to shut your mind off too and is just visually so stunning to look at. 19. Easel - I was gifted a large antique easel by a customer from work at Gordon Harris - it was such an honour to get given something that was once so sentimental to someone, it belonged to her father who was a Walt Disney animator, so it feels really special to own this now, its made of real oak and needs to get oiled and cleaned every few months, it takes up alot of space and is such a privilege to own. 20. Cards - I keep all the cards I get given by friends and whanau and one that I have on my desk next to my vanity is one that was given to me by one of my friends who lives in Nashville, I often think about how cool it is to be able to have items from all across the world that contribute to one larger creative space, that remind me of people in my life that are important who help me get by each and every single day, not only in the creative field are they inspiring but in everyday life I feel loved and cherished by them.

What is the Fabric of Banarasi Silk Sarees?

Silk sarees have a timeless allure that transcends generations. Among the many types of silk sarees, Banarasi silk sarees hold a special place. These exquisite pieces of art are not just garments; they're a celebration of craftsmanship and culture. In this article, we'll explore the captivating world of Banarasi silk sarees, uncovering their history, weaving techniques, motifs, and the artistry that goes into creating these cherished garments.

Introduction to Banarasi Silk Sarees

Banarasi silk sarees originate from the city of Varanasi, also known as Banaras, in India. These sarees are renowned for their opulent textures, intricate designs, and luxurious feel. Crafted using the finest silk, Banarasi sarees are a symbol of timeless beauty and traditional artistry.

The Rich History of Banarasi Silk

The history of Banarasi silk sarees dates back to ancient times. These sarees have been a part of Indian culture for centuries, with their origins tracing to the Mughal era. Skilled artisans would weave these masterpieces for royal families, creating designs that merged Persian aesthetics with Indian craftsmanship.

Weaving Techniques and Artistry

Banarasi silk sarees are woven using techniques that have been passed down through generations. The weaving process involves meticulously intertwining silk threads to create intricate patterns. The "zari," or metallic threads of gold and silver, are woven into the fabric, giving it a rich and ornate look.

Types of Banarasi Silk Sarees

There are four primary types of Banarasi silk sarees: Pure Silk (Katan), Organza (Kora), Georgette, and Shattir. Each type has its own unique characteristics, such as the pure silk sarees being heavy and lustrous, while the organza variants are lightweight and transparent.

Intricate Motifs and Designs

Banarasi sarees are celebrated for their elaborate motifs and designs. Common patterns include floral motifs, paisleys, and intertwining vines. The "Butidar" design features small details like flowers, birds, and leaves, while the "Jangla" design showcases intertwining foliage.

Colors and Variations

Traditionally, Banarasi silk sarees featured rich, deep colors like maroon, gold, and navy blue. However, modern variations now include pastels and contemporary shades to appeal to a wider audience.

The Cultural Significance

Banarasi silk sarees are deeply woven into the cultural fabric of India. They're an integral part of weddings, festivals, and special occasions. These sarees not only reflect elegance but also hold spiritual and historical significance.

Modern Trends and Innovations

While the traditional beauty of Banarasi silk sarees remains timeless, contemporary designers are introducing innovative elements. From fusion designs to incorporating modern fabrics, Banarasi silk sarees are evolving while retaining their core charm.

Choosing the Perfect Banarasi Silk Saree

When selecting a Banarasi silk saree, consider factors like the type of silk, the intricacy of the design, and the occasion. Each saree tells a unique story, so choose one that resonates with your personal style.

Caring for Your Banarasi Silk Saree

Proper care ensures the longevity of your cherished Banarasi silk saree. Store it in a cool, dry place, and avoid exposing it to direct sunlight. Dry cleaning is recommended to preserve its intricate detailing.

Celebrities and Banarasi Silk

Banarasi silk sarees have graced red carpets and celebrity weddings. Many Bollywood stars have embraced these sarees, contributing to their timeless popularity.

Accessorizing Your Banarasi Silk Saree

Accessorizing a Banarasi silk saree is an art in itself. Opt for traditional jewelry like jhumkas and chokers to complement the saree's grandeur.

Wearing Banarasi Silk Beyond Traditional Occasions

While traditionally reserved for special events, Banarasi silk sarees can also be worn casually with a contemporary twist. A Banarasi silk blouse paired with modern pants adds a touch of elegance to everyday wear.

Investment Value of Banarasi Silk Sarees

Banarasi silk sarees are not only a fashion statement but also an investment. Their intricate craftsmanship and cultural significance contribute to their value over time.

Conclusion: A Legacy of Elegance and Grace

In conclusion, Banarasi silk sarees are more than just garments; they're a testament to India's rich cultural heritage and artistic excellence. With their timeless allure, these sarees continue to be a cherished choice for women seeking elegance and grace in every drape.

16: Bread

Date: 7-31-2020 IDST

Snape: *in the corner at a makeshift desk, brewing a potion* *looks up from his work and scowls at Dukermin* Are you aware that the latent magical energy in your house is out of balance? It's a wonder that I was able to make that simple fertilizer for that plant you had. *has a bunch more plants waiting to be revived*

Dukermin: *shamelessly looking over his shoulder as he works* Yeah I tried to do a feng shui thing a while back and completely screwed it up and haven't gotten around to fixing it. Maybe if I had real furniture instead of rocks it would be a little more spiritually aligned in here.

Snape: *makes some noise of acknowledgement and continues working* Where is that plant that I revived? Perhaps I could use it to know how to adjust my formula... *seems to be throwing things in the mix at random*

Dukermin: I'll get it, it's in the "dragon" den. *goes to fetch plant* Here he is! I named him Ziggy FYI.

Snape: ... This plant has legs.

Dukermin: yeah he actually ran away a while back, but he loved me so much he returned. Just last night actually! He brought his begonia girlfriend with him!

Snape: ...

Dukermin: Anywhooo... How are you liking Erscoga?

Snape: ... *hasn't left the house because it's the most similar thing to his dungeons that he's seen so far in his journeys with the Erscoga folks* *continues working*

Dukermin: You know, you should get out more. See our beautiful and very organized world! You could join a quidditch club! Or start a quidditch club!

Snape: I cannot imagine a world, even this one, in which I would start a quidditch club of all things, up there with the likes of James Potter.

Dukermin: It doesn't have to be a quidditch club, maybe a... culinary appreciation club? Or a.. idk cool cape club? What are you into?

Snape: *isn't going to bother answering* *scowls and jumps away as another cauldron explodes due to the magical energy in Dukermin's house* *cleans it up*

Dukermin: Yeah I gotta get that feng shui fixed. *helps clean it up*

Snape: *Evanesco-s the last remnants of the potion*

Dukermin: You have cleaning magics! That's so cool, you should start a cleaning club. I guess that's just a maid service but... like fun.

Snape: *glares at her* Do I look like a house elf to you?

Dukermin: No you look like a grumpy wizard man. I'm just trying to help... If you want to you can just chill here but like its damp and unaligned... Gotta get that sun vitamin you know...

Snape: *pointedly ignoring Dukermin as he rummages around in his pockets for more ingredients, coming up short* *frowns* Perhaps it would be prudent to gather more wormwood.

Dukermin: Is that a thing you dig out of the ground? I have a shovel! *excitedly runs to grab a shovel* Maybe Nalitie wants to help us find herbs!

Snape: *isn't going to mention that she doesn't really need the shovel, instead sheathing the dagger from his table and pocketing it* Is she the one who launched herself off of the school roof before you brought me here? *also has some vague feeling from another story in another life*

Dukermin: Yeah probably, sounds about right. Let's go! *off to Nalitie's house*

Snape: *following, because he'd have no idea where he's going otherwise*

Nalitie: *inside her house, reading to Lisa, Leonarda, and Erscoga Tobias*

Dukermin: *knocks on door with shovel, it's one of those plastic beach shovels*

Snape: *feeling uncomfortable being out in broad daylight, because he's spent the last 16 years working in the shadows and also being a spy, kind of, not consecutively*

Christine: *opens door, AE Tobias on her hip* Oh! Hello, Dukermin!

Dukermin: Hey everyone! We're gonna go find some wormwood, anyone wanna join?

Nalitie: *finishes the page she's on* .... Wormwood....?

Christine: I'm afraid I have rehearsal later this afternoon; I don't want to risk missing it, or I would come with you.

Nalitie: *setting down the book and picking up all three babies somehow* I'll come with you! Lemme just drop these guys off at Hope's house over on Aeuton, first.

Dukermin: Alrighty!

Snape: *impatient and wants to be doing this alone, but has no idea where to even find an environment suitable to grow wormwood, or if wormwood exists in Erscoga*

Dukermin: *to Snape* So uh yeah this is nalitie's house. Anyway, we'll probably go to Bensel to find wormwood.

Nalitie: *wants to wave, but is carrying three children simultaneously* Hello again! That other lady was my housemate, Christine.

Dukermin: Wanna lunchbox to Aeuton? *preps lunchbox*

Snape: Lunchbox?

Dukermin: Yeah it's the most common form of planet-to-planet travel in Erscoga.

Nalitie: It's.... Maybe like a portkey? Except you go into it, instead of just touching it.

Dukermin: Yeah, Nalitie, you should go first, just so Snape can see what's up.

Nalitie: *goes into lunchbox headfirst, clumsily with her extra load*

Dukermin: Yeah so you just do that but more gracefully *motions for Snape to jump in*

Snape: ... *copies Nalitie, minus the babies*

Dukermin: *hops in after*

Nalitie: *moves out of the way as they come through* *gestures around to the town of Sugar Bunting, which is visible from the hill they're on* Welcome to Aeuton! It used to be its own small world/country maybe? That we upended and rolled into a ball, and now it's here!

Dukermin: Yeah the people here are really chill with it tho.

Nalitie: Well, uh, they are now.

Snape: *a tad disoriented from the portal travel, but probably not as much as other newcomers and definitely not as much as when they were travelling via music*

Nalitie: Anyway, Hope's house is just down here, by Vella and her family. *starts walking, surprisingly normal*

Dukermin: *rolls down the hill*

Snape: *perturbed, but retaining the appearance of apathy* *walks down the hill as well, feeling slightly out of place because Aeuton is very colorful, not magical, and still a lot nicer than his hometown*

Dukermin: *shouts hello to people as she rolls by them*

Nalitie: *reaches Hope's door and kicks at it because her hands are full* *not bursting into the house like she normally would, for fear of giving the babies concussions*

Snape: *standing awkwardly behind her*

Dukermin: *rolled into some bushes and is now freeing herself* Are we here?

Nalitie: *nods back at her*

Hope: *opens the door* Nalitie. *sees Dukermin on the ground and Snape standing there looking like a bat* *confused*

Dukermin: *jumps up* Oh hey, I was just inspecting your bushes for routine maintenance... You got an A+ tho!

Hope: That's... nice.

Nalitie: Christine and I were wondering if you could babysit for a bit? She's got rehearsal later on and will probably be bringing the other Tobias, cause Steven is visiting his mom, Willy's out at a business conference--something about food safety standards, I guess--and Dave was going to go argue with his grandma's landlord.

Hope: I would love to take the kids. *takes the two that are not in the carrier and gestures for Nalitie to bring Tobias in the other room*

Shay and Rocky: *at the table, rewiring a Hexipal*

Dukermin: * goes over there* What are you trying to make it do?

Rocky: We wanna program it to do a different dance, one we saw someone doing over on Termata!

Dukermin: Oh I think I know the one you're talking about, it's quite popular over there. Try connecting that one to that one *somehow knows about electronics*

Rocky: *attempts it*

Hexipal: *starts waving its arms around in the air wildly, clicking its tiny heels together*

Snape: *has come into the house finally* *frowns* What is that?

Dukermin: It's called "The Man on Fire".

Nalitie: No doubt originating from one of my many VR house fires.... Those miniseries episodes got pretty popular on AETV, you know?

Dukermin: Yeah apparently they're renewing it for an eighth season!

Nalitie: Oh no, wait--I don't have any material planned! What the heck has Mettaton been doing with my VR room since he got his body back...? I was wondering where my small cult following came from.

Snape: *uncomfortable at the wording and hopelessly confused, because this is not just normal Muggle television being discussed, and it also isn't 1996 anymore*

Dukermin: Anywhoo... we're gonna head out to Bensel. Hope, do you guys need anything from there?

Hope: No, we just bought produce from Isole the other day, but thank you.

Dukermin: Alrighty, well, shall we? *starts heading out*

Nalitie: Heck yeah! *follows*

Snape: *nods at Hope and Shay and Rocky in goodbye* *leaves with them*

Dukermin: *preps lunchbox*

(And so they were off to Bensel!)

Dukermin: *appears there* So uhh... who's farm should we roll up to?

Nalitie: *lands on her face, untethered by children*

Snape: *lands rather ungracefully this time*

Nalitie: Definitely not Old McDonalds. He tried to sue me the other day for disturbing his corn at Christmas. I might be queen, but that doesn't mean I have money... or that Erscoga itself has a currency...

Dukermin: I mean if anyone's going to have weird herbs it'll be 7even but I'm not sure she's home right now...

Nalitie: *shrigs* Worth a shot. Otherwise we can raid the land around her house, I'm sure that's fine. We made the planet.

Dukermin: Yeah we can do a steal.

Snape: *squints suspiciously* What precisely do you mean, made this planet?

Dukermin: I mean, we kinda made all of this. You didn't know that? I mean, who in their right mind would just allow us to be queens if we didn't contribute drastically to the universe...?

Snape: Forgive me my ignorance, but I didn't exactly choose to come to your world, now did I? *won't speak of the fact that he has actively chosen to not leave the house in the last 2-3 months*

Dukermin: Oh yeah I forgot that you're kind of a hermit in my house. It's okay tho, you're helping my poor plants.

Nalitie: It's not like we really gave you a tour before now, anyway. Dang. Usually we're so on top of that when new people come to Erscoga.

Dukermin: Yeah. Welp. This is Bensel! The farm planet sorta thing!

Nalitie: Literally all that's on here is farms. And 7even's house, which might also be a farm. I'm not sure. We haven't gotten that far.

Dukermin: Idk she wants to be a witch doctor last I talked to her so...

Snape: *chooses not to comment on that wording, unsure if the distinction exists for the Wizarding World™*

Nalitie: I think the last time we did development for her was back last spring.

Dukermin: Well, if she doesn't have wormwood we can try Isole maybe...

Nalitie: Farmer Joe's pretty neutral. We might have to pay him, though.

Dukermin: I have some Pocket Lint™ that I can pay him with.

Nalitie: Sounds good.

Snape: *offers Dukermin a largish gold coin* This should be worth something, regardless of world. In any case, most Muggles are particularly transfixed with gold at all times, so unless your world is any different, it won't matter that this currency is invalid here.

Dukermin: Well... we can try it but.. One of our planets is... hard to explain. Gems and precious metals aren't nearly as rare here as they might be elsewhere. You know what is rare... French breads.

Nalitie: Dang. Maybe I should be selling bread to make some actual money. *pauses* No. That would ruin my integrity. I hate bread.

Snape: ...

Dukermin: *considers bringing up that toast is even rarer but decides against it* We can try it tho, the barter system is good.

Nalitie: *considering* *turns to Snape* Hey, you're good at making things. Would it be possible to make... breadless bread, for those who are intolerant to the real stuff?

Snape: *scowls* Are you truly that stupid?

Dukermin: I dont know. Maybe just throw some beans and rice in there...

Nalitie: Maybe without the yeast....

Dukermin: yeah! Snape, can you magically make bread rise??

Snape: I suppose you could use the Bread Leavening Charm, if you want to run your kitchen like a middle-aged wizarding housewife *thinking of Molly*. *looks at Nalitie* Although I don't suppose you would possess the magical skill required for even that.

Dukermin: Yeah so I'm learning that and making a bread company for sure. And it will be named Breadless Bread™ .

Nalitie: My kitchen is blissfully void of snails right now. Maybe once we're done here, we can go test that Bread Leavening Charm.

Dukermin: Yeah let's do it! ANYWAy wormwood.

(You've been standing in 7even's front yard for a while now. She's not home, but she has some bushes around her house that look suspiciously wormwood-like, and her herb garden is watering itself around the side of the house.)

Dukermin: Hey is that wormwood? *wields shovel and heads over there, tip-toeing, ready to do a steal*

Snape: *strides over there, plucking the shovel from Dukermin's hands on the way* If you dig up that plant, not only will it be more obvious to the homeowner, but you run the risk of severing the roots as well.

Dukermin: Dang maybe I just wanted to look cool, I had a whole aesthetic going on... *pouts*

Snape: *methodically cutting a few sprigs of wormwood, trying to make it not look obvious that any is missing* *placing them in handkerchiefs and placing them delicately in his robe pockets*

Dukermin: I'm lookout *pulls out a pair of binoculars*

Nalitie: *checking out her herb garden*

Snape: *notices another interesting plant and goes and takes some cuttings*

Dukermin: Ooh what did you find *uses binoculars to examine the new plant*

Snape: Dittany. I've been running low, no thanks to escapades of Potter and his friends last year. *scowling at the memory*

Dukermin: *fake low voice* If it wasn't for those meddling kids, bleh bleh bleh. *back to normal* But yeah you can probably take whatever you need, i'll leave some pocket lint as payment when we leave.

Nalitie: Plus, you have, like, unlimited time to do whatever you want here, there's no Voldemort or Harry Potter here!

Snape: *hisses* Don't say his name in my presence.

Dukermin: Ah... good ol' Voldy. Don't worry, if we ever were to encounter him we'd toss him on the scary prison planet. Plus, all his really scary magics are banned here anyways.

Snape: Hmph. Well, if you're done blithely insulting one of the two most powerful wizards of our age, I have what I came here for. Perhaps it would be better to offer your friend actual monetary compensation, if you wish to leave any trace of our presence at all.

Dukermin: Whatever you say, Dad. *leaves the gold coin* We should go do something productive with you since you're around. Maybe we should go see Alphys?

Nalitie: Oh! Yeah, since we're doing the tour for you kind of now, we should FIGHT you to see what your SOUL's like!

Snape: Excuse me?

Dukermin: We'll do that on Pluto. *prepares lunchbox* *hops in*

Nalitie: *tries feet-first this time*

Snape: *carefully enters lunchbox*

Dukermin: *somersaults onto Pluto* What's up everybody!??

(Pluto is looking a tad better than when you were here before. The barricades around the Best Western have been taken down. Undyne's house is pretty much rebuilt. Sans and Papyrus have started to rebuild their house. Alphys's lab is STILL buried in the ground. Chara and Sans eye you warily from their box.)

Dukermin: *shouts to the few monsters out and about* I love what you've done with the place!

Gert: IT'S YOU!!! THANK YOU FOR SAVING OUR PLANET!!! YOUR FRIEND LOOKS REALLY MAD AND ALSO KIND OF COOL! I LIKE HIS HAIR! MOM WON'T LET ME GROW MINE OUT BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE ANY.

Dukermin: You're welcome, my guy! And you know what, bald is beautiful!

Snape: *glaring intensely at Gert because he is a child and also he has never seen a monster child before??? But this one is getting on his nerves for sure.*

Dukermin: Gert, meet Snape. Snape, meet Gert!

Gert: WOAH!! I'VE NEVER MET A SNAPE BEFORE! THAT'S AWESOME!

Snape: *wishing he was back at his makeshift work station in Dukermin's house* What precisely did we come here for?

Dukermin: Uh lots of things actually. We needed to check up after the war and tragedy and stuff, we need to FIGHT you, we need to see Alphys... and I feel like there's something else that maybe we're not supposed to know about yet...

Nalitie: Yep. Sounds about right. *to Dukermin* Shall we start a FIGHT?

Dukermin: Sure thing! *to Snape* Put up your dukes, old man!

Nalitie: *starts the encounter*

(You're in the alternate dialogue now!)

(Snape stands across from you. You don't see his SOUL anywhere, but he's outlined in faint shades of purple and cyan.)

(You see the bullet box with Dukermin's multicolored SOUL and Nalitie's slightly desaturated blue one. It's Snape's turn.)

(He doesn't know what he's doing.)

Dukermin: Oh interesting, you don't have like a normal SOUL, which makes sense. The colors are definitely there tho.

Nalitie: Yeah, that's weird. If I didn't know better I would probably say you didn't have a SOUL, but that would be silly.

(Snape asks what you mean by "doesn't have a normal SOUL.")

Dukermin: So, you can see that we both have SOULs...

(Dukermin points out the two SOULs)

Dukermin: They're like, little heart things. I've got a bunch of random colors because... weird things...

Nalitie: And mine's not very heavily colored because DETERMINATION. Actually, neither of us is a very good example for what a SOUL is supposed to look like. Anyway, it's your turn, Snape. Just pick a button.

(Snape CHECKs Dukermin.

Dukermin - LV2 - She has a lot of SOULs because Candle Grandma is also inhabiting her body.)

(It's your turn!:

*| Fight

*| Act

*| Item

*| Mercy)

(Dukermin CHECKs Snape)

(Severus Snape - LV 6 - He's a wizard with specialties in potions and Dark magic.)

(Nalitie SPAREs Snape.)

(Snape accepts the spare, and dialogue goes back to normal.)

(Meanwhile, on Bensel)

*7even comes back to her house after looking for her lost frog pet and sees a golden coin. After searching around her house, she realizes there are some herbs missing. She wonders where they possibly could have gone, and decides to try and contact Nalitie to ask, as she is still relatively new to life in Erscoga.

*Ring ring*

(Somewhere back on Pluto...)

Nalitie: *jumps when she realizes her phone is ringing* *to Snape and Dukermin* Hang on a sec, this looks important. *answers phone* Hello?

7even, still on Bensel: Hello, I'm so sorry to disturb you, but I was wondering if there are any thiefs or something on Bensel, as far as I know is only me and my neighbor?

Nalitie: .... *suspiciously* Uh Old McDonald is a pretty shifty character if I do say so myself. He sued me a few weeks ago for trespassing in his corn.

7even: Potentially, my only suspicion of that is that he is, in fact, very territorial, and seems to respect other people's property as long--is someone there?

Dukermin: *viciously mouthing to Nalitie* Who's on the phone??

Nalitie: *covering the... the microphone bit?* 7even. I think we've been caught. *to 7even* Uhhh we're... orienting a newcomer to Erscoga. We're on Pluto, so there's a lot of post-war construction.

Dukermin: *loudly whispering* ask her if she wants to join us!

7even: Newcomer! Oh that's wonderful!

Nalitie: Yeah! His name is Snape--or uh that's his last name, we don't believe in first names here apparently--and we've been showing him the ropes over on Pluto if you want to come join us. I think I left you with a Lunchbox?

7even: Yes I still have that. And I would love to. I need to replenish my supplies anyway, and the coinage is the perfect amount to supply most of them.

Nalitie: Awesome! We'll wait here for you and also move out of the drop zone. *not going to mention the coin because it totally wasn't her and Dukermin who left it there*

*7even finds the lunchbox in her storage, pushes the pluto button, and jumps in. She tries a little flip to be cool, but unfortunately does not land it well, and falls next to Nalitie, Dukermin, and Snape.*

Dukermin: 7even! Cool "flip"

Nalitie: :D IT'S YOu!

Snape: *raises an eyebrow at the person at his feet*

7even: You must be the newcomer, welcome! Im 7even!! *extends hand as she brushes off dirt on pants*

Dukermin: Yeah that's Snape. He lives in my house and never leaves so we forced him to go outside.

Snape: *warily shakes hands with 7even* You say that as if I'm a hermit. I simply had better things to do than "explore" your world.

7even: *to Dukerman* a bit cautious is he? *to snape* That's probably a good thing in some situations! But I promise I won't do anything bad.

Dukermin: *nods to first bit*

Snape: ...

Nalitie: Uh anyway, yeah, this is our new guy, and we were just trying to analyze his SOUL because that's important here and he's weird.

Dukermin: We already did the fighting thing... What more do we need to do with that? Visit Alphys?

Nalitie: Yeah probably. We can go see if she's in her lab.

(Nalitie points at the big rectangular building that's half-buried in the ground.)

7even: while we are there, do you know, by chance, if she has any herb supplies. There is a specific plant that I need for luring purposes.

Dukermin: What plant? What are you luring?

7even: Well you see, from my exploration of Bensel, there is an elusive....animal? I've been tracking it and it seems to respond to a supply of a plant called Grotsel. And Ive, unfortunately run out. It's a bit hard to find.

Dukermin: We can definitely ask, if Alphys doesn't have any...

Snape: *mouths under his breath* What the hell is Grotsel...?

Dukermin: *looks to 7even* uhh...

7even: It's a new subspecies of herb I've found that resides in unknown places. I don't mean to sound suspicious, but there is very little known about it. I feel like the animal may hold some answers.

Dukermin: I mean it doesn't get much more unknown than Erscoga. Yeah we'll ask, herbs aren't alphys's expertise but she may know of someone.

Snape: *suddenly realizing the extent to which this world is different than his, and also how weird it is*

7even: Then off we go!!

*to the lab!*

Dukermin: *sees the door is like perpendicular and finds a big hole in the side of the building* uhh. Knock knock?

Alphys: *had been watching anime or something* *almost doesn't scream this time* *looks over? Back? At Dukermin + co.* O-oh! Hello!

7even: Hello. You must be Alphys. We haven't met yet. Im 7even.

Alphys: *looks over at 7even* A-alphys. *sees Snape kind of outside of the hole* O-oh... did you bring another, um, another whole s-society here again...?

Dukermin: Not a /whole/ society. Just one person as far as I know... This is Snape.

Snape: *hiding under his mask of apathy again because what the heck is going on*

Alphys: Oh! S-sorry, I just, uh, assumed b-because there were two of them...

7even: Well, I don't exactly know fully our business here, but it seems we have another SOUL for you to inspect? *Looks to Nalitie and Dukermin*

Dukermin: OH yeah, a couple of things apparently. First off... This guy *gestures to Snape* has kind of an interesting SOUL, and maybe you want to take a look?

Alphys: O-oh, sure? Um, what kind of, uh, w-weird should I expect?

Dukermin: Well, the SOUL is present, but it's not so much... a SOUL as like... an Aura? Idk you'll see...

Alphys: ???? *starts an encounter with Snape*

(You encountered Snape!

|* FIGHT

|* ACT

|* ITEM

|* MERCY)

(Alphys CHECKs Snape.)

(Severus Snape - LV 6 - He's a real, live wizard.)

(Snape SPAREs Alphys and the encounter ends.)

Alphys: !!!!!! W-Wait. You guys didn't tell me he was a-a wizard! L-like, uh, l-like a real one!!!!

Dukermin: Oh yeah he's definitely that. Cool, right?

7even: Fascinating. *To Snape* After this is over, I have a couple of questions to inquire of you, if that's all right?

Snape: *looks at 7even appraisingly* If they are not too obnoxiously intrusive, I suppose.

Alphys: *to Dukermin* N-no, y-you guys don't get it. Wizards, real, true wizards w-went extinct in my world when The Barrier was created.

Snape: !!

Dukermin: Oh. Welp. Now you get to meet one! It's okay, he's kinda chill.

7even: Also a bit cautious haha.

Alphys: B-but that would explain the SOUL t-thing. Wizards, uh, they're kind of b-between monsters and humans??? I-I mean, obviously they're human, b-but they're special b-because their SOUL and their, uh, magic... Um, instead of manifesting as a--as a separate entity of sorts? The SOUL you're all used to? It, uh, it's interwoven into their body, their blood, their DNA. It's, uh, actually really interesting! A-and that's why they need incantations and wands, b-because physical matter--namely the human body--is a r-really bad conductor for, uh, magic.

7even: What, potentially, would happen if a regular human tried to conduct magic like that?

Alphys: Um... like, do you mean using w-wands and stuff? Nothing would, uh, happen really. Regular humans... their S-SOULs are separate enough from their, uh, physical matter that it's p-possible to pour magic out directly from the SOUL, so to speak, like, uh, like monsters but a little weaker, b-because they're impeded by being a human. That's why S-SOUL magics, l-like you use in encounters, aren't really effective for humans like they are for monsters.

7even: Amazing! I'll definitely have to do some research on this topic at some point.

Dukermin: I guess that kinda explains why it's so difficult to place "spellcasting" into the power cap. Because it encompasses so many things and hasn't really been much a part of our world before...

Alphys: Y-yep! Oh, uh, and also, in the case of, uh, wizards, s-some of their spells don't fit into the Spectrum of Magical Chroma. N-not like the kinds of magic you and Nalitie and, uh, 7even, was it? can use. L-like, uh... the cosmic p-powers you used to use, Dukermin? T-those were s-sometimes similar to regular monster magic or a v-very watered down blue magic. B-but I know there's some kinds of m-magic wizards can use, certain s-spells that go beyond the S-SOUL or r-really even anything we've slotted into E-Erscoga's system.

Dukermin: That's really cool... But... So we wanted to start a bread company right, and the only way that it can be done with integrity is if we find a way to remove the yeast component. Is it possible for us to learn spells? Or would it look a little different for us? This is very important.

Alphys: U-uh... Well, er... y-you wouldn't get anywhere just, um, just copying Snape if he does a spell. Um... I guess it would depend on the spell??? Maybe if, uh, if you showed it to us we could see if it has a color? *mutters* Sans is better at Color Theory than I am...

Dukermin: It's a bread leavening charm? Snape, can you show it to us?

Snape: *raises eyebrow* ... I could, if there was actual bread dough in front of me. What do you expect me to do, leaven your friend? It wouldn't work, by the way.

7even: I'm so sorry to interrupt. But why do we have to remove the yeast?

Nalitie: *bursts in through the crowd, blazing with passion* French bread is valuable and I don't have any money, but I can't just make and sell bread! I hate bread, it would ruin my moral code! But Log_Lady tested it for me and decided that yeast specifically is what makes bread bread, and gives it its flavor and stuff, so if you remove the yeast, you have breadless bread. *to Snape* And no, its not a stupid idea!

Dukermin: But bread simply isn't good if it isn't fluffy. *under breath* this actually sounds kind of like a scam but... i mean there are lab grown diamonds so...

7even: Ah, I see. Well I have a few bread ingredients at my home, but unfortunately not the type for french bread, so I am not of much help. The only ingredients I have is a starter for sourdough *to Dukermin* Lab grown diamonds? Cool!

Dukermin: Yeah it's an Earth thing! But i mean if there's no yeast in the starter, that could be useful. We just need to test it...

7even: I'm not sure if it has yeast. Farmer McDonald left it on my doorstep as payment for some seeds I lent him

Nalitie: *hisses at the mention of Old McDonald*

Dukermin: Oh, you know who would definitely have basic ingredients? Toriel. We can all just pop over there and see if we can use her kitchen.

Nalitie: HEck yeah, that's right! *already pushing past the crowd again to the outside world*

7even: One thing before we leave. *to Alphys* I have been trying to gather some information on a plant called Grotsel, but am having some trouble. Do you happen to know where I would find some information on it? Perhaps a book or something?

Alphys: *frowns* U-um... I don't think I've e-ever heard of it, b-but maybe on one of the native planets s-someone might know? N-no one's really sure what's on, uh, Lux or D-dunkel yet? O-or the war planet...

7even: That's all right. And thank you for the tips! Let's head out to...Toriel, you said?

(To Toriel's house!)

Toriel: *outside, searching for snails and humming*

Asgore: *probably still living in his own house, since his therapy with Sophia was cancelled temporarily due to the war*

Dukermin: *waves* What's up, Toriel? *looks for snails as well*

Toriel: Oh! Hello, my child--*sees the rest of the group*--children!

Snape: *narrows his eyes at Toriel, because he's not a child and she's too much like Molly Weasley for his liking*

Dukermin: Oh, this is 7even and that cranky man there is Snape!

7even: *Waves with large smile, she seems to like that same characteristic Snape dislikes so much*

Toriel: It is very nice to meet you both! If Asgore were here, he would offer you tea, but seeing as he is not here, perhaps I could extend that offer instead?

Dukermin: Oh yeah! *heads inside* *stops and knocks on the door before just walking in*

Snape: *despite everything, is always down for tea*

Toriel: *to Dukermin* It is open, my child. Asgore is back in the castle right now.

Dukermin: Eh, habits *walks in*

7even: *follows, as she follows, she looks excitedly around at the house, loving the cozy aura of her surroundings*

Toriel: *follows them in, leaving the basket of snails on the counter and washing her hands*

Nalitie: *sits down at the table*

Snape: *standing there in the kitchen, feeling hopelessly out of place*

Dukermin: *had found two snails in the garden* *has named them Seth and Sarah and will be keeping them forever now*

Toriel: *preparing tea* *to Dukermin* Thank you again for helping us with the war, my child. It was certainly a Plutonian problem, but we appreciate the knowledge you brought to the table.

Dukermin: Oh no problem! *under breath* kinda feel responsible because it was my body that was used to... whatever what's done is done. *To 7even* So I have a super powerful SOUL kinda sharing my body... it's complicated but yeah she went on a vacation gone wrong...

7even: That sounds awful. I hope you are okay now.

Dukermin: Oh yeah it was fine, apparently it was a very fun time until they accidentally brought a super evil lady to Pluto...

7even: Yikes, sounds like a lot of stuff happens on Pluto. I'll stick to my home base haha

Dukermin: This is true.. Yeah Bensel is much more peaceful. Anywho...

Nalitie: Oh yeah! Hey Toriel, you have baking ingredients, right? We want to make bread.

Toriel: Oh! Of course, my child, although I must warn you that I have run out of yeast. I made bread for Asgore and Frisk before the war and did not have the chance to buy more.

Dukermin: Oh well what luck! We're hoping to make bread that doesn't contain yeast but is still light and fluffy! With wizard magics!

Toriel: *startles, nearly dropping the tea cups she was serving* Wizard, did you say?

Dukermin: Yeah it's a whole thing. Don't worry about it tho.

Toriel: Apologies, my child, but I did not realize wizards were common in your world--they went out of existence in the War of Humans and Monsters in ours. I suppose we have not explored this world very much since coming here...

Dukermin: I wouldn't say they're common... there's really just one...

Nalitie: *points somewhat accusingly at Snape*

Snape: *scowls*

Toriel: *gently admonishing her* It is rude to point, my child.

Nalitie: *stops and mutters* Sorry Toriel...

Dukermin: heading over to the baking supplies* So uh, that's a yes on borrwing your kitchen...?

Toriel: Of course, my child, after all it would be remiss of me to deny you permission when I use Nalitie's kitchen so often.

7even: And of course we can reimburse you for the ingredients used. I have a coin :D

Dukermin: Oh good, cuz I'm fresh out of Pocket Lint ™ .

7even: *looks confused for a second* Pocket lint....hm. Weird. I think I have some, don't know where I got it

Nalitie: Remember, Erscoga doesn't have a currency yet... Pocket Lint ™ is temporary until our bread economy takes off. *pulling out the flour and putting some warm water in a bowl with sugar, but no yeast*

7even: Oh, well if there is no need for currency, I will find a different use for this coinage.

Snape: *over in the corner, sipping his tea and trying not to draw attention*

Nalitie: *also pulling out measuring cups* Sounds good. We've got like a lot of different currencies on each planet that are literally worthless in the grand scheme of Erscoga.

Dukermin: Ooh can I mix?

Nalitie: *pouring flour into her bowl of water* Heck yeah. I've got a spatula for while its still liquid but we'll have to knead it eventually.

7even: *intently watching* I actually don't know how to make bread. I was going to learn with my starter, but this is good too.

Dukermin: Sweet! You can try kneading it then, we'll show you how.

Nalitie: *sprinkling salt into the mixture because she forgot that* *blithely adding random measurements of flour, going by appearance rather than recipe* You guys can go ahead and mix or knead or whatever, I'll add as we go.

Dukermin: *mixes it up*

Nalitie: *pouring flour over Dukermin's hands as she mixes* It's probably going to be good soon.

7even: When will we need that charm?

Dukermin: Before or after we knead it? *has never made bread before either*

Nalitie: Uhhhh *looks to Snape*

Snape: After, if I recall Molly Weasley's explanation correctly. *obviously does because he's Snape and remembering things correctly is an important character trait of his*

7even: Perfect. Is it time to knead it?

Nalitie: *nods enthusiastically and moves out of the way*

Toriel: *watching and smiling, sipping her tea* *slides over to make small talk with Snape*

7even: *starts to knead, a lot more violently than would be expected, but obviously having fun*

Dukermin: *starts doing the dishes because that's a nice thing to do*

Nalitie: *putting away the flour*

Snape: *trying to move away from Toriel without seeming obvious*

7even: Hey guys, I think it's ready!

Dukermin: Okay, I'll give Alphys a quick call and see if she's still available to check the color *ring ring*

Alphys: *answers* *is breathing heavy, like she's running* I-I'm sorry!!! I hadn't, uh, hadn't realized y-you guys left!!!! I'm on my way!!!!

Dukermin: Oh it's chill, see you in a bit! *hangs up* She's on the way!

7even: Wonderful! We need her to check it or something?

Dukermin: Yeah, precisely. To check the color and see how it works, ya know...

(There's a knock on the door. Toriel goes to answer it, and in runs Alphys)

Alphys: A-alphys is here! U-um, I mean, uh, I'm here! *takes out the device she uses to examine SOULs, which has been recalibrated to just look at Color Signatures* O-ok, go ahead and t-try it.

Snape: *walks over to the bread dough and pulls out his wand* Ortum panem! *the bread begins to rise, as it would if you let regular bread dough sit for a while*

Dukermin: Oh wow! It's working! I smell capitalism and wealth!

Snape: *frowns* Of course it's working, I'm not an incompetent first year.

Toriel: *unhappy at Snape's attitude, but too polite to correct him in front of company*

7even: This is wonderful. I'm sure they didn't mean it as an insult, more like a congratulations and a thank you.

Snape: Hmph.

(The bread has risen wonderfully, and is ready to be baked. Of course, we didn't shape it into loaves of french bread, so it will have to be baked as one big lump.)

Alphys: *messing with her device, pulling up the hex codes for any colors that might be there*

Dukermin: *puts bread into oven, which we definitely remembered to preheat*

(Soon, the smell of baking bread fills the kitchen.)

Alphys: O-okay, um... So the composition of the spell looks like it's a really similar color to, uh, Dukermins' old c-cosmic magic, but in, uh reverse. It l-looks like it's got s-some Integrity aspect, w-which is at a r-really low s-saturation, it says th-that aspect is #e0f1ff, b-but it's got a lot of k-kindness in it, s-similar to healing magic--#54ff68. S-so it's not wizard specific! But s-since you can't really c-cast the spell like Snape, you'd have to, uh, play around with b-base magic compositions and, uh, color mixing, and intent, and really S-Sans is better at t-this stuff than me...

Dukermin: Oh, we'll have to pay him a visit then, I guess? At some point for sure.

7even: Well you guys do that. I'm going to head back to my home to do a bit more research. Keep me updated on the bread. And thank you so much for bringing me along!

Nalitie: Definitely, we will start a... a bread empire, I guess. You can take the bread if it's done. Otherwise we'll mail it to ya.

7even: Sounds wonderful!! *7even takes out her lunchbox and presses the planet Bensel, waves goodbye, and decides to not flip into it* *disappears*

Dukermin: Goodbye! Let's get this bread!!

Nalitie: *waves goodbye until she's gone* *continues cleaning up Toriel's kitchen*

Dukermin: Okay, so we're gonna go talk to Sans then?

Nalitie: Yeah, I think so. *is writing down the hex codes for the colors, now that the kitchen is clean*

Dukermin: Cool, i feel like I've been standing here for months. Off we go! *drags Snape with*

(And so they went outside to the Callie/Sans box. Mr. Face Man stands outside of it, writing on his whiteboard. Callie is confused. Sans is less than enthused.)

Dukermin: *draws a cat on the whiteboard*

Mr. Face Man: *look of annoyance, as much as his face will allow, as it is stuck in one kind of default smile*

Dukermin: *also copies the hex code onto the whiteboard* We want to make bread.

Mr. Face Man: *writes in the corner* ✋︎ 🕈︎✌︎💧︎ ❄︎✌︎☹︎😐︎✋︎☠︎☝︎ ❄︎☟︎☜︎☼︎☜︎

Dukermin: This is more important though. Here's the hex code for the spell we're trying to learn. We need to avoid using yeast for personal reasons, so a bread-leavening charm is the only option. It's urgent.

Snape: *noise of disdain*

Dukermin: *noise of acknowledgment of disdain*

Sans: ... what exactly do you need our help with? or mine, i guess. i dunno. i just got up, i'm not bready for this yet.

Dukermin: Nice. We just want to be able to do this spell ourselves, we have the hex code so I guess we need to play around with the base colors some to get it to work.

Sans: *looking at the hex codes* ... hm. well, i guess this spell, or whatever you'd call it if it's not actually performed by a wizard, has a primary kindness trait. that's not too hard, just some regular ol' green attacks. the integrity part's a lot weaker, so you can't really throw my bro's blue attack at it and call it a day. if i was doin' it, i'd be able to mix the magics before i even throw the attack, but for you, it might be easier to have one person make the green attack and have the other person throw some good ol' blue magic at it. the SOUL kind, not the attack kind. oh, and you gotta mean it, too, that you're trying to get bread rise specifically.

Dukermin: So... I do have access to green magic, and you can do the blue magic thing... It'll just be a matter of getting the proportions right... right?

Sans: *finger guns* you got it, kiddo.

Nalitie: And getting more dough. Forgot that step. Also, we can only use those magics inside of an encounter so... does that mean we have to fight the bread?

Dukermin: Yes!! This is a dream come true!

Snape: *looking at them like they're crazy, since this magic system is gibberish to him*

Dukermin: So... back to Toriel's kitchen for a bread-making montage?

Nalitie: Back to Toriel's kitchen!

(and then they made a bunch of bread dough, knowing they were gonna screw it up a few times)

Dukermin: Okay, let's initiate a fight with loaf A.

(You encountered Loaf A!

|* FIGHT

|* ACT

|* ITEM

|* MERCY)

(Dukermin conjures a beam of magical energy and tries to hold it steady... but she lost control!!)

(Nalitie attempts to perform a blue SOUL mode on the beam of energy, missing a little and only getting some into the beam.)

(The bread turns invisible! It may have risen... but it's hard to eat bread when it's invisible...)

Dukermin: Maybe you should start this next one Nalitie.

(You won...? Earned 0 G and 0 EXP.)

Nalitie: Okay.

(You encountered Loaf 2!

|* FIGHT

|* ACT

|* ITEM

|* MERCY)

(Nalitie attempts to make solid blue magic.... But Integrity magic only manifests itself as a SOUL mode, which isn't physical.)

(Loaf 2 launches into the ceiling! -XX HP!)

Dukermin: Okay, so that didn't work. Probably be best if I started, huh...

(You won! Earned 5 G and 1 EXP!)

(You encountered Loaf e!

|* FIGHT

|* ACT

|* ITEM

|* MERCY)

(Dukermin manifested a ball of green magic and actually held it steady for a while!)

(Nalitie carefully turns the attack blue.)

(The bread starts to cry.)

(Dukermin SPAREs the bread)

(You won! Earned 0 G and 0 EXP.)

Snape: You two are actually more dunderheaded than the first years I teach. How such a simple charm can be outside your grasp is beyond me.

(You encountered Loaf △!

|* FIGHT

|* ACT

|* ITEM

|* MERCY)

(Dukermin very carefully makes a small bean of green magic)

(Nalitie attempts to turn the attack blue, but it's too small for the SOUL mode to take hold.)

(The flour in the bread begins to turn back into wheat. Now Toriel's countertop looks like a small farm.)

(You won? Earned 0 G and 0 EXP.)

Toriel: *walking into the kitchen* *didn't know they'd come back* Oh! What is this? It is, erm, a lovely addition to my home, but what on Earth are you doing?

Dukermin: We're trying.

(You encountered Loaf 5!

|* FIGHT

|* ACT

|* ITEM

|* MERCY)

(Dukermin does the green thing.)

(Nalitie sees the insurmountable amount of bread dough left, and accidentally leeches some Perseverance magic into her blue SOUL mode as she casts it.)

(The bread hardens into stone -- a wall of morality.)

Snape: *raises an eyebrow* How is it that you can manage so much accidental Transfiguration, but cannot perform a simple household charm?

Nalitie: We're doing our best, shh.

(You won, maybe. Earned 0 G and 0 EXP.)

(You encountered Loaf F'!

|* FIGHT

|* ACT

|* ITEM

|* MERCY)

(Dukermin flavor blasts the bread before Nalitie has a chance to realize what's going on)

(Nalitie pouts.)

(The bread comes to life. It goes to comfort the crying bread. What a nice moment.)

(You won! Earned 3 G and 0 EXP.)

(You encountered Loaf G(x)!

|* FIGHT

|* ACT

|* ITEM

|* MERCY)

(Dukermin is getting frustrated. She blasts the bread again.)

(Nalitie complains about not being able to do her thing. She catches the tail end of the blast with a blue SOUL mode.)

Loaf G(x): *is conscious* Space? Space space space gotta go to space. SPAAACE.

(Loaf G(x) has left the building.)

(You won! Earned 0 G and 0 EXP.)

Dukermin: Next time you can blast the heck out of it with me. It feels great!

(You encountered Loaf EIGHT!

|* FIGHT

|* ACT

|* ITEM

|* MERCY)

(Dukermin does the spiderman pose thing and decimates that bread with green magic)

(Nalitie casts a blue SOUL mode directly on the bread's remains.)

(Loaf EIGHT shatters and its molecules spiral apart, becoming pure magical energy and transcending our plane of existence)

Snape: *frowns* I would have liked to study that.

(You won? Earned 0 G, 0 EXP, and 15 Experience Points.)

Dukermin: Okay, time to chill out. I think I've got it figured out.

(You encountered Loaf  !

|* FIGHT

|* ACT

|* ITEM

|* MERCY)

(Dukermin steadies herself and conjures up a reasonable looking green attack)

(Nalitie applies a blue SOUL mode to the attack, if a bit heavy-handedly.)

(The bread begins to rise! But... sideways?)

Nalitie: Dang. That was my fault, I think.

Dukermin: We'll get it next time.

(Loaf   wins!)

(You encountered Loaf X!

|* FIGHT

|* ACT

|* ITEM

|* MERCY)

(Dukermin makes up a green attack and gets hit with a strange feeling... like she doesn't actually know what she's doing... like this is all a manifestation of something outside of her control...)

(Nalitie does... something.)

(The bread begins to glitch out. The world around it seems to tear apart and reveal a reality that none of the citizens of Erscoga are prepared to face.)

Loaf X: *takes in its surroundings* I believe it is time for me to leave this Google Doc now. *flies out of your computer screen, just over your left shoulder and out into the horizon*

Dukermin: ... That wasn't it.

Snape: *has the chilling feeling that he's nothing more than a crude pantomime of who he's supposed to be, and that he's not supposed to exist in Erscoga at all* *shudders*

(You encountered Loaf 11!

|* FIGHT

|* ACT

|* ITEM

|* MERCY)

(Dukermin makes a very similar green attack as the one she used on Loaf   )

(Nalitie places a blue SOUL mode on the green attack. But calmly.)

(Loaf 11 begins to rise! The right way this time!!)

Nalitie: Heck yeah!!!!

Dukermin: We did it!

(You won!!!! Earned nothing but the satisfaction of finally getting bread to rise.)

(Dukermin leaves the fight)

Dukermin: So now we bake it, right?

Nalitie: *nods enthusiastically*

Toriel: *cleaning up some of the more interesting loaves and trying to coax the crying and other conscious ones outside*

Dukermin: *places bread in the oven we totally preheated*

(The bread bakes like a normal loaf of bread! The crying loaf cries harder, mourning its friend as it's so cruelly incinerated at 350 degrees.)

Oven: *dings*

The previous loaf of bread we forgot to take out of the oven: *is but a pile of ash*

Loaf 11: *is a perfectly healthy bread specimen*

Dukermin: Are you ready to try our magic bread that's gonna make us rich?

Nalitie: *peers at the bread suspiciously, reminding herself it's Breadless Bread* Indeed.

(The bread is delicious and fluffy in spite of a lack of yeast)

Loaf e: *sobs harder*

Dukermin: We should find a home for the Loaf e and Loaf F'.

Nalitie: *cleaning up the remains of the bread on the ceiling* I can take them for now, if you'd like. I'm sure the kids will get a kick out of them. Maybe Loaf F' will make a good babysitter.

Dukermin: That would be nice. *chucks the stone bread into the garden*

Nalitie: *tosses Loaf  * *takes Loaves e and F'* Alrighty. Thank you again Toriel! *has forgotten about Loaf A sitting invisibly on the countertop*

Dukermin: Yeah, thanks! We'll make sure to cut you in for 15% of the profit.

Snape: *surreptitiously eating some of Loaf 11* *is more impressed than he'd ever admit*

Toriel: Oh, that is nice. Please feel free to come visit whenever you would like!

(The end! ... for now.)

Pipe smoking has its own set of etiquette rules, such as not blowing smoke directly in someone's face, and not leaving a lit pipe unattended. Understanding and following these rules is an important part of the pipe smoking culture.

The Pipe Smoking Community

Pipe smoking is not just an individual hobby, but also a social activity that brings together a community of enthusiasts. Joining a local pipe club or attending pipe smoking events can be a great way to meet other like-minded individuals and learn more about the art and culture of pipe smoking.

Health Risks

Like any form of smoking, pipe smoking does come with health risks. It's important to understand these risks and take necessary precautions, such as smoking in well-ventilated areas and not inhaling the smoke.

13. Space Paladin

Space Paladin begins with fast paced rock and a montage of the hero suiting up, with their gold and white power armor they're quite imposing as they jet off towards what will be the first stage!

"SPACE GHOST!"

A side-scrolling shooter similar to Gradius, though made a bit easier by your ability to deflect shots with your sword and knock them into enemies.

HNV: Ooh, superheroes in space, an underused video game archetype! DueyDecimal: I believe this is more like a KNIGHT in space! Syrupentine: I hope it's not the kind that can only move in an L shape

You can even knock enemies into each other for extra damage! Because of this, you have to time your attacks right and being aggressive usually yields you only a swift demise.

aroseahorseboy: ping pong those meteor monsters! aroseahorseboy: whoa they knock each other back at you too, that's not fair

"Space Knight is really kind of Space Pong but you know what, I get to put on a fancy robot suit and go out in the universe, and that's what I- WHOAH!! Slow up there, Dragonfart!"

The first boss rushes past from the back of the screen, a mechanical dragon that flaps up and down quickly, spitting homing fireballs. "Oh he's cool looking! I hate him also, he's hard, ow!"

Klickitat_Street: Hey, she’s just trying to defend her family! Look at all the eggs you destroyed on the way! Syrupentine: I wouldn’t want to lay meteors. :( HNV: That would probably give you hemorrhoids... Klickitat_Street: Or assteroids. :P Baconnaise: Bea is it okay if you have two less fans soon

She also discovers she can charge up her slash attack. This lets her create a shockwave when she swing, and lets her knock back projectiles twice as fast!

"He's like, 'You know as a knight I was really worried I wouldn't find a dragon in space and I'd just have to settle for slaying a space manticore or something.' "

"And the dragon's like 'Ahh no lousy stinkin' knights up here in the black reaches of- D'OH!!' "

Her final blow chops its head clean off.. and then the head flies away, apparently cackling! "Hey, I'm going to put you on the hood of my car next time I see you!"

aroseahorseboy: you thought you could hoard all the space damsels and astro-gold you wanted? aroseahorseboy: THINK SPACE-AGAIN DueyDecimal: I love when ‘space’ is used as a prefix in the future! HNV: That’s mostly the fault of dictation soft where failures comma Dewey. Glockroach: So is he dead or is he gonna show up later attached to a battleship or a dump truck or something

"I mean, he's bound to show up later, I kind of like when games get a rivalry going between- oh.." The next stage has begun without warning. This time you're flying through a long tunnel lined with statues that appear to be other Space Paladins? The music is much more soft and somber, and Bea finds herself being attacked by ghostly warriors.

"Whoah, the Hall of Ancestors? And none of them are happy to see me, it seems! 'I remember youuu.. I gave you twenty bucks and you never gave it back and then I DIED!' And my guy's just like 'but you're dead now you'll never need it' and they're like 'nope, nope, don't care, we're haunting you, we called up all them dead relatives and we're gonna use 'em' "

berd_snurglar: hey, harsh but fair DueyDecimal: The makers of this game were definitely going with the super overblown portrayal of paladins, huh! With the deep religious themes and asking for spiritual guidance and stuff Meanwhile in every game I run, the Paladin ends up being “The Terminator, except he can turn water into wine“

The vengeful ghosts really test Bea’s ability to reflect shots, and she finds herself using her special spin move more to clear the screen of projectiles than to attack!

A giant knight statue kneels at the end of the stage. There's a bit of dialogue here! Unfortunately none of the text is legible, it's like an alien language. "Huh. Anyone got the secret decoder ring or possibly Google Translate"

Glockroach: It says ''''''''''''''''''' '''''''''' '''''''''''''''''''''''''' '''' ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' Syrupentine: Oh, it’s Woodstock! berd_snurglar: dude got big and joined the space guild I guess wait is the statue also talking or is it knightdude just introspecting

Bea is then presented with a choice- two options, but both in the same abstract "language".

"Uuuuhhhhhhh... Guess we'll do a vote? How many for nonsense A vs. nonsense B?"

DueyDecimal: OK, hang on, maybe it’s a cryptogram? Can we figure out which of these characters is the ‘E’ and work it out from there? aroseahorseboy: that would be the one that looks like ‘ Baconnaise: you are already nonsense, Bea HNV: What was the name of this show again? Syrupentine: i just call it Bea Time Oh jeez duh. PRESS BEA!

"First option is usually 'Yes' with these things, but what am I agreeing to here?" She flips back and forth, moaning and groaning before she makes her choice.

Instantly, the statue's eyes light up and it rises to its feet, pulling a giant sword down from offscreen. "Y'okay, I clearly just agreed to take a look at your cool sword! Done, let's go! Bye!"

HNV: I’m going to assume that he offered to rule the universe with you as father and son and you just said no? snerd_buglar: 'look around lad, all this could be yours' 'what the statues?' 'no not the statues lad!'

This battle feels more dire because there’s no projectiles to reflect, just clashing swords as Bea flies through the endless tunnel of moaning ghosts! Bea still has her own shots, but can’t seem to land a hit on the giant statue with them, it’s even better at blocking than she is!

"I really don't know what to do, nothing seems to get through!" After several minutes of clashing blades, Bea's getting ready to give up, until she realizes she's no longer in control. The warriors have lowered their weapons. Then, they clasp each others hands, and shake.

"Oh."

Syrupentine: Oh. berd_snurglar: oh. Bee52: oh Llord_Kuruku: Oh...

The screen slowly fades to black, but as it does, some sort of energy appears to flow between the giant knight and their smaller successor..

"See I knew I was worthy of the...thing, you guys all worried for nothing!"

DueyDecimal: Why is everyone saying “Oh?” Oh. HNV: The only thing I was worried for nothing about was that Screen 2 wouldn’t match how crazy Screen 1 was...

Screen 3 opens with a legion of ships flying by in the background, over an Earth-like planet. A single while pixel can be seen darting between them- and several are split clean in half! The pixel then flies directly into the camera, and we see it's our knight again! The stage truly begins as they fly low over what looks to be the mothership, touching down to run along its surface.

"Oh dang, a run-em-up now? Okay! Gravity shmavity, it looks cool as hell"

berd_snurglar: this is kind of like someone make an NES lords of thunder and i'm diggin it Llord_Kuruku: I’m starting to to dig this game for real, it’s got a really epic sense of scale

"Yeah me too, Kuru. Wish I knew just what was going on but that's kind of part of the fun I guess!"

HNV: That’s part of the appeal of all of these games, isn’t it? There’s something under the surface, even with the bad and unplayable ones!

Bea can't fly here but she can jump, and she has to to clear some of the turrets and missiles that fly by. "Just, just chop it up already, what's the hold up?"

TaichouSenseiKun: Drama!

She doesn't need to fight much until the miniboss appears, a robotic manticore with an unpleasantly human face-plate and literal stinger missiles!

DueyDecimal: DUDE! Bee52: this is the Monster Manual in space!! berd_snurglar: dewey did you make this one DueyDecimal: Did I?? We’ll see if you have to fight a mechanical hook horror next! HNV: A Robotyugh aroseahorseboy: CPU flayer

This stage is basically a gauntlet of minibosses. After the manticore comes a somewhat underwhelming robo griffin, but its more than made up for by the robo beholder!

Glockroach: B-H0LD R DueyDecimal: This isn’t just a game I’d make, this is what I see when I close my eyes

Approaching the bridge at last, there is no crew visible beyond the windows. Only a glass dome containing the head of the dragon from stage 1. It seems to cackle before turning as much firepower on Bea as possible!

Syrupentine: He’s back!! I love this dragon HNV: Do we get to name him or is that only for heroes Glockroach: Called it btw Llord_Kuruku: Congratulations! You won Space Paladin.

This last boss battle puts Bea’s reflection skills to the test. Some projectiles must be batted back, while new ring-shaped ones must be caught on an outstretched sword and then matched with an opposing color before launching them back to crack the dragon’s dome!

And that's only the first phase- as the battleship itself is finally destroyed, the bridge detaches to become a huge chimera, the dragon head topping off its tail!

"Aaaaahhh.... I did- NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! ARE YOU KIDDING?"

aroseahorseboy: frippin dang dude! DueyDecimal: This game is grueling but at least it keeps rewarding you with new stuff! Bee52: yeah but come on! that was like kids making up rules in a pretend game! Bee52: POW I got you! Yeah, but, um, my head flies away and gets a new body and also it’s got more heads this time!

"Nu-uh, I got invisibility which not only makes me invisible but if you hit me your arm just goes through anyway! And also the floor is lava and I have the lava boots but you don't"

Syrupentine: MOOOOM, BEA'S CHEATING

She can only get a few hits in, but that's all that's needed with her newly empowered sword! "Ahaaaa, eat a big pile of fu- WHAT???"

The last phase seems to be just the dragon head flying about, and she's too distracted by the chat to dodge in time!

She glares at the screen, slowly turning to the chat window. "YOU!!!!" "No big deal, we can always just.. just.. Game over?! What???" Bea squints at the screen. "They give you ONE life to do all that??"

TaichouSenseiKun: one life to live Klickitat_Street: Well now I'm just amazed at Bea's gaming prowness. All that on one life! Syrupentine: "Prowess" TaichouSenseiKun: Prowness: having qualities resembling the prow of a ship Klickitat_Street: ...I was so ready to come back at you with the dictionary, but no, it is prowess. Everyone's been laughing at me behind my back when I say 'prowness', haven't they. -_-; aroseahorseboy: no you're just in smart company, in real life people probably don't know the word

"Well in spite of how awesome I am, I dunno if I can do that all again, not right now. We'll come back to this one, I have a score to settle!"

aroseahorseboy: any robot dragon that thinks it can mess with Bea has got another think coming probably at least two more thinks since it seems to have several heads

What is Hammam?

The Hammam is an ancient ritual that has been practiced in Middle Eastern cultures for centuries. It is a special place dedicated to relaxation, purification, and skin rejuvenation. In the hammam, people bathe in warm water, steam, and other natural ingredients to cleanse their body and soul. The ritual of hammam is known to have a variety of health benefits and can be a very therapeutic experience. It helps improve circulation, relax muscles, remove toxins, and even clear up skin issues like acne and eczema. Furthermore, it has the potential to reduce stress and anxiety levels. With its ancient origins, the hammam has evolved over the years and continues to be an important part of many cultures today.

The History of Hammam

The ritual of hammam dates back centuries. It is believed that hammams originated in the Middle East and North Africa, where they were used for social gatherings, beauty treatments, and religious ceremonies. The use of hammams spread throughout the region, eventually making their way to Europe in the 19th century. Hammams were popularized by the Ottoman Empire, and are still found in many countries in the Middle East and North Africa. 

The traditional hammam is designed to be a spiritual and relaxing experience. Participants enter a steam room, where they relax and detoxify their skin. During a hammam session, many people enjoy massages, body scrubs, and hair treatments. Afterward, they typically enjoy a dip in a cold pool to cool off. 

Today, hammams are still popular in many cultures around the world. While some remain traditional and authentic, others have adopted modern spa-like treatments. Regardless of the type of experience you are looking for, a hammam session can be an incredibly therapeutic and enjoyable experience.

How to Prepare for a Hammam

The ritual of hammam involves a specific set of steps and protocols that should be followed to ensure the best possible experience. First, it is important to arrive at the hammam with a clean body and an open mind. You should also come with a towel and any other personal hygiene products you might need. This may include soap, scrubbing gloves, and an exfoliating mitt. Make sure to bring enough water to stay hydrated throughout the experience as well. Once you are ready to begin the hammam, take off all of your clothes and enter the steam room. Take some time to relax in the sauna before beginning the scrubbing process. 

Once you are ready, start by using a mild soap or scrubbing mitt on your skin in circular motions. Rinse off any remaining soap, and then apply your chosen oil or lotion to moisturize your skin. Finally, take some time to meditate and relax in the steam room before exiting. By following these steps, you will be sure to have a pleasant and beneficial hammam experience.

What Happens During a Hammam

The Hammam is an ancient ritual that still exists in many cultures today. It is a place to relax, detoxify, and rejuvenate the skin. During a Hammam session, you will be guided through various steps to purify your body. The first step of a Hammam is to enter a warm room, called a sauna. This room is heated up to around 100-120 degrees Fahrenheit, with high humidity levels. Here, you will sweat and open your pores, preparing your skin for the next steps. 

After the sauna, you will be guided to a cool pool or shower. Here, you will cool off and rinse off any remaining sweat and toxins from your body. This is also a great time to apply some soap, oil, or other products to your skin to help nourish it. 

The next step of the Hammam ritual is exfoliation. In the Hammam, you will use a mitt or glove made of natural materials such as silk or linen to scrub away dead skin cells and impurities from your body. You may also be guided to use natural soaps, oils, and other products to help nourish your skin during this step. Once you are finished with the exfoliation step, you will then be guided to a massage table where you will receive a full-body massage. During this massage, warm water may be poured over your body, helping to soothe your muscles and improve circulation. After the massage is complete, you will have the option to soak in a relaxing hot tub or bath.
