For the characters- Yanfei, Jean, and Xiao por favor~!
tex my beloved!!! anything for you!!!!
yanfei:
who? | only know their name | loathe | ugh | overrated | indifferent | dead | alive | just okay | cute | badass | my baby | hot | want to marry | favorite 
I LOVE HER SMMMMMM i think i mained her in a reaction party since 2.1 or so? cus i remember i got her cons during ayaka banner (up to c2) and i was like :0 might as well build her cus she's cute and i love her va! and then i pulled for her again during yelan banner and now she's c5. i love her sm, she's very witty and has a way with words, the entire serenitea pot quest was just a yanfei quest in disguise. she's also the first adeptus (technically half) that genuinely has a happy story that's not about Suffering. i love how talkative and rambly and nitpicky she is. and how she has a weak spot when it comes to divorce / emotional cases!!! and how her "contract" is literally just to live a happy life? im tearing up!! thats so cute!!!
jean gunnhildr:
who? | only know their name | loathe | ugh | overrated | indifferent | dead | alive | just okay | cute | badass | my baby | hot | want to marry | favorite 
my Wife. i think i've already told this before somewhere in my genshin tag but i lost 50/50 to her the first time i tried to pull on a limited chara, zhongli. and she has NEVER left my party unless i'm trying to gain friendship xp. i use her w literally any chara bc i can't bear to bench her cus she's too pretty and i want to do everything w her. i think i legit make teams around her LMAO like xiao hypercarry? that's fine, jean can be anemo battery and healer. i now have built bennett and raiden? cool, time for sunfire jean! freeze team? oh we'll need a cryo res debuffer! ill put jean on. she just works so well for so many things??? 🧎 who needs zhongli when mhy can just powercreep enemies by introducing corrosion? u know who doesnt need a shield to be good? jean. i have her on c2 and im planning to get her to c4 so she can shred anemo res!!!
tho tbh what made me fall for her first was her character and personality. i just really love hardworking earnest and "justice-like" knight girls.... i think they're so cute. my fave lines from her are "You have my complete and full support. Of course, if your path ever deviates from justice, I will not hesitate to point it out." and "I swear by this sword, victory shall be yours." LIKE PLEASE. .... AND HER FINAL ASCENSION LINE????? "Wind, please forgive my selfishness. Not as the Acting Grand Master, but as Jean - I hereby swear that my sword shall always go with you."
PLEASE ..... I LOVE YOU SO MUCH..... 🧎🧎🧎🧎🧎
xiao:
who? | only know their name | loathe | ugh | overrated | indifferent | dead | alive | just okay | cute | badass | my baby | hot | want to marry | favorite 
hehehe!! as mentioned before, i use him a lot w jean! i dont have much to say about his personality or lore since i think what i would say are things that things that have been echoed by a lot of other people. but in terms of the game and gameplay wise, i super love his novelty. his gameplay is completely not reliant on elemental reactions at all which i SUPER love. i think i told this story already, but like. for a good chunk of genshin i legit didnt know we were supposed to build teams around elemental reactions. bc my first two limited 5* charas that i got were xiao and eula, whose whole playstyle revolves around being a "selfish" dps who does crazy consolidated dmg. and i thought elemental reactions in genshin worked like pokemon where it was like... "ok water beats fire. i guess i shouldnt put hydro and pyro charas in the same team!" <- a complete fool. that was the opposite lesson you had to learn.
i think he's been my main dps ever since i got him! in 1.3, so february last year. right now i switch between yanfei elemental reaction team, ayaka + yelan freeze team, and xiao hypercarry with bennett and xiangling as supports. he's super fun to play as, though i wish he wouldnt cause enemies around him to get knocked back as i plunge using his burst TwT

Tumblr media

From your character ask game for the Cars movies! Zero obligations to answer, but I myself love doing these.
Im not going to send you a character. Ill ask you instead to pick two for yourself under certain criteria.
1) A character that you were inatantly drawn to on your first watch. The character that ultimately and initially became your favourite.
2) A character grew on you over time and over several reruns of the movie(s). Also please tell me why this occured. It fascinates me.
Brace yourself, theres a few!

Im so sorry I cannot remember what they were! I just wrote down the numbers. Love your blog!
Alrighty! This is gonna be fun, also I love this request- thank you so much honestly (⁠つ⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠)⁠つ
Characters I have chosen (it's 3, I couldn't decide on the first criteria, so this is gonna be quite a long post):
For the first criteria we have Strip 'The King' Weathers and Finn McMissile
And for the second criteria we have Francesco Bernoulli.
-> When I first watched the second movie of the Cars-Trilogy I mainly focused on the whole espionage thing that was going on, and less on the World Grand Prix racing. Therefore I didn't pay much attention to the other racers individually. And at first I did not like Francesco at all. He reminded me too much of Lightning, when Lightning was a rookie and I didn't like that. Bernoulli gave me, as mentioned, similar vibes as rookie Lightning, the vibes of the whole 'being a one-man-kind of show' thing. Francesco came across as a cocky, flirtatious, over confident character with a high ego. (At least for me ಥ⁠‿⁠ಥ)
But after I rewatched the movie several times, I started to like him more. (Well and maybe some fanfictions had their influence as well-) I began to think more about him, about his way on and off the track, his relations and so on. I saw that, despite his seemingly high ego, he is indeed a kind soul. For example how he seems to like the fact that his mother is his 'biggest/greatest' fan, and he is open about that too. I have a feeling some other racers would be embarrassed to see their family members, especially their mother, cheering for them. But he doesn't mind it. (Alright- this turned out longer than expected-) ⊂⁠(⁠(⁠・⁠▽⁠・⁠)⁠)⁠⊃
NOW- let's get going with the rest of your 'Character Asks' request (⁠つ⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠)⁠つ
I am gonna go in the following order for each number: Strip Weathers, Finn McMissile, Francesco Bernoulli
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
1) My first impression of them
-> A racer with great potential, that is also blue and works for an agency with a Dino as a logo. (⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠)
-> Uiii cool looking, normal, spy guy. Actually, scratch that- a wild traumatized appeared (Pokemon reference intended)
-> Rookie Lightning McQueen but make him Italian and take away his fenders
2) When I think I truly started to like them
-> When he told off Lightning at the beginning of Cars 1. No elaboration.
-> Right at the start of Cars 2, due to the whole entire chasing scene.
-> After rerunning the movie several times, and fanfiction-
3) A Song that reminds me of them
-> 'Gossip' by Måneskin
-> 'Set it off' by Skillet
-> 'Iconic' by Simple Plan
10) Describe the character in one sentence
-> Silly country boi that loves racing and his wife (and sponsor.) ⊂⁠(⁠・⁠▽⁠・⁠⊂⁠)
-> Bisexual- I am sorry- British secret spy agent with trauma.
-> Italian racer that is shamelessly flirting (and in love) with McQueen
12) Sexuality hc!
-> Bisexual or Unlabeled (already mentioned in another ask)
-> Gay- Bisexual ʘ⁠‿⁠ʘ
-> *clap clap, finger guns* Pan. (⁠☞⁠ ͡⁠°⁠ ͜⁠ʖ⁠ ͡⁠°⁠)⁠☞
13) Your favorite friendship they have
-> Him and Tex/Him and Junior
-> Him and Tomber
-> Him and McQueen
16) A childhood headcanon
-> Never liked playing/interacting with other kids
-> Grew up somewhere in Germany
-> Used to steal- eh I mean borrow, Mama Bernoulli's cosmetics
18) How do you think they were as a kid?
-> Shy and reserved, didn't know how to connect with others around him
-> Bubbly and happy, always in action, until some trauma happens (Explanation in 22)
-> Outgoing and enthusiastic, loved to brag about Mama Bernoulli's delicious food (he still does that)
20) A weird headcanon
-> Had a goth/punk phase as a teen. (⁠ ⁠╹⁠▽⁠╹⁠ ⁠)
-> Once needed to plan a wedding for a Spy-Mission, as part of a cover
-> He knows how to knit and sew. (⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠) Mama taught him (⁠ ⁠ꈍ⁠ᴗ⁠ꈍ⁠)
21) When do you think they were at their happiest?
-> Whenever he is/was on the track or with Lynda/Tex, and later on whenever Cal or Junior are around, oh and when he met Doc Hudson (⁠つ⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠)⁠つ
-> Training Academy with Leland and when he was/is with Mater/Holley and or Tomber
-> Also while racing, around his fellow racers (The other WGP racers), and of course when he is with his Mama
22) When do you think they were at their lowest?
-> When he crashed at the Tiebreaker race, and during middle school
-> After his mother's death, and later when Leland passed
-> After a harsh break up, and unlucky for him, his Mama was very ill at the same time too (she got better of course)
24) What do you think is a secret they have that they never told anyone
-> He once wanted to commit. (I'm sorry, I'm dumping so much trauma on the poor guy) Never told anyone. Not even his parents found out. Not even Lynda or Tex know, he keeps that secret to himself and he will take it with him into his grave.
-> He will never tell anyone, how exactly his mother passed, only he knows the real reason and he is gonna keep it that way
-> He used to eat flowers when he was bored, and occasionally he still does that. Of course he isn't gonna tell anyone, his Mama doesn't know either
25) When do you think they acted the most ooc?
-> When he met Doc for the first time and was alone with him. I don't know what kind of hyperfixation suddenly hit him, but he suddenly became all excited and bubbly. I mean his Idol was in front of him. (I am sorry I couldn't think of any movie scene that seemed ooc for him)
-> That one scene in Cars 2 in Japan, where he fought with some of the lemons. There is this one scene, one split second, where he was shocked to suddenly be rammed
-> Also in Japan, during the race on the dirt part of the track. We all know he lost his momentum there due to not knowing how to properly drive in dirt. That was the one moment his self-confidence/his ego took damage.
26) When do you think they were being 'themselves' the most?
-> Honestly, on the track, with Lynda and Tex, with other friends, with his nephew and so on
-> Around Leland/Tomber, and with Mater/(Holley)
-> With his fellow WGP racers, especially with Lightning
AND DONE (⁠ ⁠ꈍ⁠ᴗ⁠ꈍ⁠)
This was fun to write, took me about an hour plus and I loved it! (⁠つ⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠)⁠つ
Thank you so much for this, it really got me into my thoughts and just- thank you! (⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠)

Am a bit loopy cause I'm sick but you mentioned about learning to use stone and plant pigment as dye. Do you mind giving me some pointers where to learn that as well? Also congrats on your residency!!
of course!! most of my knowledge comes from books, reading as much on the subjects as i can get my hands on. a lot of the older books (my personal favourites) are hard to find as physical copies but they can be found as PDFs online or at many libraries! i've found all of these either through my local library, as PDFs/ebooks online, or as physical copies in stores.
heres some recs:
- 'the modern natural dyer' by kristine vejar **
- 'a garden to dye for' by chris mclaughlin
- 'the wild dyer' by abigail booth
- 'wild colour' by robert murray smith
- 'craft of the dyer' by karen leigh casselman **
- 'the rainbow beneath my feet: the mushroom dyers field guide ' by bessette & bessette **
- 'lichen dyes: the new sourcebook' by karen diadick casselman **
- 'natural color' by sasha duerr
- 'botanical inks' by babs behan
- 'make ink' by jason logan **
[ ** are my personal favourites and ones i reference a lot ]
i also recommend researching field guides for plants, mushrooms, lichen, etc in your area and getting your hands on a copy of them if you're planning on doing the foraging yourself. if you're in the ontario and eastern canada/great lakes to new england usa region i can recommend you the ones i use, but otherwise they won't be of much help to you sadly

People I'd like to know better
Tagged by @paleasamoon (hi tex i love you tex sorry this took a year) (HEH. get it. cus you tagged me last year. heh.)
Last song: just putting on yt music as im reading manga and talking to muwi, and now its playing burn for you, from the bridgerton musical! (i don't know watch or follow it) (it's just a nice song) but i'd also like to recommend this song
Favourite colour: YELLOW!!!! 💛💛💛💛💛💛
Currently watching: my computer screen writing this up
Last movie / TV show: skip to loafer! i was screaming with muwi the entire time bc the story was so sweet and healing and everyone is so sympathetic and cute and we kept being like AAAAAAAAAA I LOVE WOMEN FRIENDSHIPS SO MUCHHHHHH
Spicy/savoury/sweet: sweet! if i could choose a combo, i like savoury-sweet. i like spice but only if i like the flavour! i'm not keen on the actual pain sensation of spice!!
Last thing I googled: hummmm i don't remember... i think a marinade recipe i made yesterday night? i made a korean base marinade for some lamb chops!! i cooked them today and invited my sister to eat with us, it was rlly yummy!
Relationship status: single! waves my aroace flag!!! i'm curious about how it feels to be in a relationship but it's not smth i try to actualize LOL i'm content w reading my shoujosei man-ga/hwa/huas <33
Current obsession: idk if i could call them obsessions yet but right now i'm really invested in sousou no frieren (anime only, havent caught up to the manga), skip to loafer (same there), and i'm looking for more wholesome healing stories. although now that i'm going through my reading lists for stories i've dropped, i'm laughing at them fjaksfjkasfj
Tumblr media
(i promise this one has proper context bc i usually like pacifist mcs just bc i like politics and connection seeking to be based on a foundation of empathy and kindness. but this one was just so stupid and just a way to establish how good the mc was to the point that i couldn't get immersed in the story bc it was that nonsensical and i wanted to die)
Tumblr media
i'm typically fine w mary sues / jane(?) FLs and i even tend to be biased for them just bc there's a lot of misogyny about the subject matter, so i normally don't bat an eye unless it's a writing choice i find unsuitable / doesn't fulfill the potential it could've achieved with an interesting plot.
(btw the context is that the first screenie which this rant also applies to was when some guy caught the baddies and the FL is like "No let's reward them for trying to kill us. they're just misunderstood!! i bet if we try really hard we can all get along!!")
but! i only really like it when it actually does something useful, like thematically or symbolically. like tohru's innate goodness for furuba inline with the sohma's family curse and mitsumi's unending positivity and earnestness that helps the people around her heal from emotional wounds. not that they're mary sues in any way, but since people understand mary sues as "female protagonists who can do no wrong and will be liked no matter what" (even thought their psychology and personality is just genuinely likeable), i think it makes my point clear. there's a way to write a character who is Good and Kind without cheapening them to a naivete that at best, makes the mc pitiable, or worst, is treated like the mc's totally unique worldview of "lets be nice to people and never hurt anyone ever :)" is the end all be all of the story and the solution to the plot. kindness and empathy is a coiled spring that projects you forward, a motivator. it's how you guide your hand and where it goes, not that the hand is never raised. i don't agree that cowardice towards change and the potential promise of conflict is any kind of wisdom >:T plus it kinda puts the shame to the idea of kindness as a legitimate basis for political strategy, and that leads to some set up for a lot of zero sum games i don't care for in this specific story. there is a good story where each character is trying to one up each other politically, psychologically, at all times, but this is not that story and so the tone feels very off kilter.
but yeah!! sometimes a character is just OP and the story is not even having fun with it (aka its not satire or irony), which makes me think they want to take it seriously. and my serious thoughts was that it sucked.
(i just realised this also applies to the first screenie LMFAO it just loops back huh!!)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
not gonna comment about the others bc i think they speak for themselves <33 but also the first one of these three is fucked up in the sense that i dont even get where they're going w the story. its a revenge story and the FL uses the ML from childhood to achieve her revenge, but then suddenly when he's an adult she has Feelings for Him and now im like.... okay....? belief no longer suspended. beliefs are like those garter straps that snapped. my socks are like my beliefs. fallen to my feet. they are no longer suspended.
sorry that got off track </33 i enjoy looking into why i dont like things, im in this stage of life where i realise i actually have specific ass tastes!! i always have, but i just realised it very recently a few years back fjskfjskjf
People I'd like to know better (i also wanna include some mutuals who i haven't talked to but i like to see on my dash):

@fflewddurfflam7

other than using lolcow as a source which is insanely fucked up as is can we just acknowledge rq the transphobia and ableism in some of the screenshots texas decided to post? whether any point made in those screenshots are true or not, which i doubt, texas could have very easily shared those without the screenshot that literally only has someone shaming dreamie for using neopronouns, with the r slur there too, im assuming texas’ intent was to make dreamie out to be a bad person with certain screenshots, but they could’ve just posted those screenshots on their own, the addition of screenshots that are quite literally only shaming dreamie for shit like pronouns and even have slurs in them really undoes any “good” they were intending to do by “calling dreamie out”, and just further solidifies their bigotry, because i’m sure that entire thread wasnt screenshotted, yet they decided to go out of their way to add screenshots with slurs and bigotry for absolutely no reason because it doesnt further their point at all (apologies for only using they/them for texas i don’t know their pronouns i checked their tumblr but there was none in their bio)
exactly my point, nonny. I wouldn't accept lolcow as a source for something against texas or mack either, especially if the screenshots were alongside blatant slurs. As neurodivergent women (based on pronouns & what I've seen from them in the past), they should know better, and will be harassed and made fun of themselves just as easily if given the chance. The fact that they stand by the r slur alone, given their own presumed struggles being ND, is both baffling and disappointing. They're sharing a cesspool full of bigotry spouted by people that can't get their way on sites like tumblr, twitter, certain reddit subs, etc. The sole purpose is to harass people while pushing incorrect information, pictures of innocents that are uninvolved, doxxing, etc. Could there be something true posted on that site? Sure. But there's no way to treat it as a trusted source of information given the amount of hostile bigotry in that environment. For (somewhat) milder examples, would you use r/thed*nald, 4chan, or even just plain old simsecret as a trusted source for something regarding a marginalized person? Absolutely not.
The irony in trying to "call someone out" while being excessively ableist and transphobic says plenty, as well. But they don't understand that, because the intent is not to fight against something wrong. They don't care about victims or minorities, they care about seeming right and hurting those they disagree with. it's performative, as usual- and more importantly, it's harassment. I won't be answering anymore asks on this topic or engaging with Texas for Dreamie's sake (and the fact that Texas is incredibly weak and blatantly uneducated in the topics they're pushing), but I wanted to post this one for those that might not realize what lolcow is and what it stands for. When getting information from the internet, please consider the source and exercise critical thinking skills.
