For the ask game, 11, 24, 38

11. what do you consider to be romance?

romance for me is wanting very much to simply to be with someone. the getting to know them and experiencing the world together. an easy belonging, and warmth, and wanting to understand - both you them and they you.

though in fiction i like it to be rather more complcated >D

24. what’s one thing you’re proud of yourself for?

even though i could have died like a hundred times when i was super ill for several months three years and i was wandering about unsupervised being very much poisoned by my meds - the number of times i just fell down in the street y'all ... - i didn't die, and even finished my BA. half a year late, but I finished.

38. fave song at the moment?

digital affection - orion experience. i found it via a really good rottmnt video via tumblr but it's ....become my little leatherhead 03 otp song. and i've been working through some leatherhead fic notes so - digital affection~~~~~

edited: i say several months because i have not that many memories of it because of said poisoning, but it was three years. actually. the whole degree i was Unwell. just me, barely able to move and very confused, with undiagnosed adhd, somehow* throwing together weirdly good essays and presentation slideshows where i photoshopped in the tardis and pokemon for lols, yet still did well. i'm proud of it all.

#thanks for asking! ^^ #*the somehow being my now-wife's love and support because she was there long-distance keeping me alive

do jinana and heron have patron arcanas?

They do! Jinana's patron is the Wheel of Fortune, and Heron's is The Emperor.

They also each have a Minor Arcana association (less of a direct patronage situation, more of something that adds onto and modifies the Major Arcana assocation) - for Jinana it's the Queen of Wands, for Heron it's the Knight of Pentacles.

We've actually been working on some bits of lore around this - paging @vesuvian-disaster if they want to add anything on for Heron!

The best piece of advice I ever got was not meant as advice, but as an edict. If I was going to threaten people as a joke, it had to be so far out of proportion with what happened that it would be obvious I was joking. This changed how I expressed frustration with others. It then changed how I expressed frustration with myself.

Not “I’m going to hit you” but “I am going to buy a tuna sub from the gas station and hide it under the seat of your car”

Not “I’m going to kill myself” but “I am going to walk into the desert and let the scarabs take me”

The other side then happened. When I mess something up, instead of saying it’s bad and perpetuating negative thoughts, swing hard the other way.

Not “this art is terrible” but “this shall be framed and mounted on the wall in my museum exhibition as testament to the suffering I had to overcome”

Have been doing this since high school. It was my drama teacher who asked me to please stop scaring the actors. The other half of the edict was that I had to say it in a polite tone, and end it with either please or thank you.

Life changing. 10/10 Mr Muëller. Highly reccomend.

hbomberguy’s latest video on plagiarism has made me completely rethink literature and writing. I have never once so much as considered intentionally plagiarizing anyone or anything, but I think there’s something more that has come out of this: the names of the people who created the works Somerton (and others) ripped off.

Plagiarism isn’t only bad because it is lazy and disrespectful, it’s bad because it buries the truth. If you can’t find a source, the conversation is over. Somerton’s sources are fairly easy to find by simply searching his plagiarized lines, but that isn’t true in most cases. Most of the time, the line from statement to source is a lot less clear.

Today, I was writing a report on English Ivy, which is an invasive species here in the US. I wanted to know when it was introduced and I at last found a source claiming it was introduced to the Americas “as early as 1727” on a .net website that seems quite reputable (it has multiple major universities credited in its home page), but there is no citation for where this date came from. I dug deeper and found a pamphlet created by a city government in Virginia that made the same claim, only to discover the first source linked in their bibliography. Another website (a botanical garden’s page) gave the same date with the same source hyperlinked. Of course, I have classes to attend and things to do and probably not enough time to follow the lines back to where this 1727 date came from, but if I had not just watched this video, I wouldn’t have given that date a second thought.

Of course, it doesn’t matter in the long run exactly what year hedera helix was introduced to the Americas, but it makes you wonder how many facts have been so vaguely attributed that it becomes completely impossible to figure out where they originated (and further, whether or not they’re true at all).

#3, 11, 21 and 63 for the questions you're not used to, please!

3.) The person you would never want to meet?

Pretty much any billionaire/politician. And it’s for their own safety that I shouldn’t be in close proximity. (For legal reasons this is a haha teehee funnie joke 🤪)

11.) Favorite age you’ve been so far?

I guess I don’t really have one. Everything blends together. Maybe 15? When I had zero responsibilities and a ton of friends lmfao

21.) If you were the opposite sex for one day, what would you look like and what would you do?

Honestly, I really don’t know what I’d look like. And I probably wouldn’t do anything different than what I usually do. The thought of being the opposite sex has never interested me. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

63.) Which is cooler: dinosaurs or dragons?

If I have to pick, I would only say dinosaurs because they actually exist(ed). And what is a dinosaur but a wingless dragon?

nsfw 7, 9 and 14 for Julian and Jinana if you'd like~

[ Shipping HCs ]

Well, this is immediately going under a cut for being v nsft lmaoooooo

🔞🍋 you know the drill

7. Genital headcanons?

Welp, given that I show Julian's erect dongus more or less constantly around here, I think we all know that I hc that he's got classic Long Man Syndrome: no ass, it's all up front. By my calculations, that thing is at least 8 inches long, and probably a bit more. 😅

LBR, there is just no way that he's ever gonna fit that whole thing into the Vajinana (s/he'll happily give out the backdoor action, but is really not into receiving it). A good 3 inches or so just never makes it to the party... but there's generally so much else going on at the time that he really doesn't mind lmao

9. Quickest turn ons? Immediate turn offs?

For Julian: lbr, just about anything lmao, the man is H O R N Y. But of course, grabbing his hair, biting him, and/or issuing a sexy command will get him rock-hard practically instantly. 😂 His turn-offs are few, mostly people who really are too sick to be boning down (LUCIO) and anyone bringing up his sister in a sexy context.

For Jinana: Quick turn-ons include aggressive sub/bottom signalling, restraining people it's really not hard to see how Julian bagged this person lmao. Immediate turn-offs are uncleanliness and mommy kink (s/he legit finds it dysphoria-inducing).

14. Lights on or off? Do they look at each other? Or is someone embarrassed?

Lights on and heavy eye contact all the way. Julian is very visually-oriented, and Jinana a) completely lacks body shame, and b) likes to be able to see what s/he's doing... or what s/he's making someone else do for hir.

It is scientifically proven that Dungeon Meshi will cause one of the characters to manifest in your head and tell you how to improve your life. You either get:

Senshi: eat well, rest, nourish yourself

Chilchuck: labor rights, advocate for yourself, scrutinize everything

Marcille: take care of yourself, study necromancy, be a lesbian

Laios: respect everything, learn about the world around you, be autistic.
