Fulfiller of Commissions, Flame Bearer of the Canopy
Tumblr media
"This servant of mine is no fool, and nimble too, as far as servants go. His biggest fault is that, no matter how hard you try, you simply can't get rid of him! I mean it — he literally will not die! Have you ever heard of someone falling headfirst off a cliff and still surviving!? Utterly infuriating!"
— K'uhul Ajaw, the self-proclaimed "Almighty Dragonlord"
◆ Name: Kinich
◆ Title: Turnfire Hunt
◆ Huitztlan Saurian Hunter
◆ Vision: Dendro
◆ Constellation: Chimaera Alebriius
Tumblr media
"It's one thing to charge a fee for delivering a letter, but charging for being a flame bearer on Turnfire Night? It's outrageous! Is this really a hero of ours?"
"It's not like you just met him today. Surely you'd admit that he does his job well? That's all that matters."
In Natlan, where humans and Saurians live together in harmony, there have always been some who have looked askance at saurian hunters. In a land full of heroes, their practice of assessing commissions and setting a price makes the profession even more controversial.
A cruel, ruthless, cold-blooded killer... Pragmatic, utilitarian, without so much as a hint of chivalrous decorum... In such heartless, damning terms do people describe the young man that never argues back.
But what of it?
As long as the price is right, all commissions shall be fulfilled in a satisfactory manner; all writhing, raging aberrants returned to the Night Kingdom from whence they came.
Once the bearer of the Turnfire name has locked onto a target, there's no looking back.

the key to understanding why barnaby and howdy act Like That™ is because they are mean girls (passive aggressive, use comedy as a shield for negging, talk mad shit about their "friends" behind their backs, etc).

the thing about pushing daisies is like.
there is a part of yourself that you hide away from everyone else. it is a neutral fact, objectively neither good nor bad, but you isolate yourself from others because of it, and it is entwined with a sense of guilt you have carried since you were a child. it is a fact about yourself that you can't change, only hide.
you have a secret that changes your relationship with every person who learns it.
you have a secret that you fear will bring harm to yourself or to someone you love, because you fear the way others will react to that secret.
you have a secret that makes it dangerous to touch the person you love dearly. you have a secret that makes it dangerous to tell others about your relationship with the person you love dearly. and yet, the relationship with the person you love dearly would not exist without your secret.
you have a secret that has brought both bad and good into your life. you have a secret that has brought everything good into your life. you have a secret that, you will learn, you don't have to bear alone.

To other English people, stop saying "England has no culture", it is actively harming us. There is a reason the Tories defunded the arts and heritage sectors whilst scapegoating immigrants. The fear that immigrants will come and destroy Englishness is only working as the government is literally trying to actively wipe it out. If we a) recognise the things that are distinctly cultural (eg architecture styles) and b) actively participate in the traditions you're always told are silly (Morris and Molly dancing, scarecrow competitions and folk songs), it will actually make us better as a country and more difficult to divide via classism, racism and xenophobia
To be extra clear, these traditions are for everyone, queer people, imagrants and anyone of any faith (including Islam).
The deliberate eroding of our folklore/traditions by conservatives (both big and little c) is allowing for the insecurities weaponised by the types of Tommy Robinson against imagrants. These traditions and folklore do still need challenging from a modern critical lense (like how blackface has been removed from Morris dancing). Nor should they be preserved exactly how they used to be, because folklore and customs have always changed with the times. Having a good understanding of our past, critically understanding and accepting of the problems in it will absolutely contribute to decolonisation. Hopefully, having a solid grasp of our own traditions and folklore in a meaningful positive way will allow us to step back from clinging desperately to the parts of Welsh, Scottish and Irish culture we cling to because we don't think we have our own. Doing so will also hopefully allow for more support of the Welsh, Scottish and Irish independence movements. Also, it will hopefully stop the rampant cultural appropriation of other sacred traditions - it's ridiculous that modern wiccans believe that smudging with a non native plant (white sage) that's being driven to extinction by over harvesting will clear any sort of bad luck.

rook x lucanis: romance with a commentary track! solas and spite contribute with their thoughts and opinions along the way whether anyone wants them to or not. it's like a MST3K episode up in here as you try to get hot and heavy. in. in the pantry. love among the radishes at the end of the world (rifftrax version)

Kwahu and Kristy really seemed to hit it off (maybe it's the "K" names?) and engaged in idle chit-chat on and off without a single disagreement.
On the other hand, Mechi managed to insult and slight his way through every single social interaction with her, proving once and for all that he's the evil twin.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Because she got along so well with Kwahu, it only seemed natural that Kristy would go to him with her birthday nightmares. Poor kid.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
On reaching her birthday, Kristina also got the "Academian" trait, no doubt due to hanging out with the most research-obsessed duo on the entire planet for a whole day (that's Mechi and Kwahu, by the way).
I wonder what Kwahu's idea of a birthday gift is...?

Would it be safe to assume hyden doesn't enjoy being called a "bunny" then?
Tumblr media
He might not mind it as much as one might assume. Like, he knows he's a Rabbit, he just figures he's a different kind of Rabbit. You know, the kind that, in a just world, would possess razor sharp teeth and claws. A superior kind of Rabbit.
So "Rabbit" is fine… "Bunny", on the other hand, reads as sort of twee and infantalizing, culturally. It would be a bit like being called a "boy" or "girl" as an adult… situationally okay from family/close friends or in playful contexts, but something that would usually imply condescension coming from a stranger.
Of course, he's far too much of a sigma male to be fazed by mere mouth sounds made by lesser minds. No, the worst thing about it is that "Bunny" was Milana's pet name for him. Hearing it brings up some bad memories about their break up.

Half of the quad...
Delm (left) is Death and Brody (right) is War. Since they can (along with Pestilence and Famine) inflict whatever status on a person, Delm is terrified of accidentally killing someone pre-apocalypse. And so he's basically a pacifist that can never say the right thing and gets beaten up and refuses to fight back. Brody tries to be his bodyguard of sorts but Delm is slippery and just vanishes and shows up freshly injured with a smile cause "well, I mean I can't /die/, dude. what's the problem?"
#my characters#i really like the four of them because keaton (famine) is obsessed with mobile gacha games#and constantly is on his phone when they all meet up to talk#and ida (pesky pesty) is slightly sadistic (mostly to delm which in turn stresses brody out more)#but while they dont actually die truly ? they do have to go through cycles and so in this lifetime#keaton and ida are brother and sister#they dont really remember their past cycles clearly so delm is convinced he was a scumbag in his previous cycle#which is just karma making him a punching bag in this lifetime#while keaton and ida are very aware of themselves as half the group growing up#they dont actually all meet right away and they only interact with delm because he realizes its them#and of course he doesnt say it well he just sounds like hes trying to flirt and be a creep#so when ida tries to make him sick to death basically and he shows almost no reaction shes like wait a second#why arent you suffering??? and hes like ????? IT WOULDNT WORK WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO DO THAT? im your ally :c#and then years pass and they finally encounter brody and delm clocks him as the fourth possibly#but doesnt say it just in case hes wrong but then takes up stalking him#and brody is sooooo tired of this lil freak following him around LEAVE HIM ALONE and then it clicks#when keaton tells him oh yeah you should definitely try to kill him hes impossible to kill#and brody is like wait a second what the f- noooooo he cant be! no! why! hes pathetic and weird!#then becomes obsessed with getting him to stay unharmed and continuously fails#thanks for coming to my ted talk where all my ocs have to be stupid#and theres no brain cells in the four of em

sometimes looking at like Self Help Strategies lists for the symptoms I'm having is always just like:
thing that I already do
thing I have tried 10 times
thing I already do
thing that I don't have the money to do
thing I already do
thing I've been doing since I was 10yrs old to no avail
thing that is impossible given my situation
thing that doesn't apply to me
thing that I already do
thing I have already tried
hrmm, oh wait, maybe finally- OH, yeah.. okay. thing that I already do but it was just phrased slightly differently
thing I have already done
#I think maybe productivity tips help less if the reason you're unproductive is partially like.. physcial health and other extenral things#out of your control. rather than just like having trouble paying attention or spending too much time on tiktok or whatever#all the strategic to do lists in the world are not going to somehow prevent me from waking up with a debilitating migraine or whatever#or having external stressors or lacking resources and connections or other Productivity Essentials etc.#especially many tips involve stuff like 'cut off from social media' since thats the modern day time waster for so many poeple#and it's like.. lol.. i can hardly even maintain a blog even thuogh i actively WANT TO DO SO. 'shut off your smart phone!' already#done babey i fucking hate smart phones i shall never use an app unless i am forced to. 'delete tiktok' yep. already covered. tiktok and#all of those thinsg are my enemies. 'save money by cancelling some of your services' cool. already ahead of you.#who the fuck is out here paying for like 10 different subscription services. pirated videos uploaded to google drive and youtube to mp3#my beloved. etc. etc. and so on. 'socialize less' .........LOL.. if only you knew.. mr.writer of the article. i can barely muster#talking to friends more than once a month and even less if I'm actively sick (often occurence) etc. etc. ... hewoo#I think maybe instead of generic productivity tips I need more like.. how to refocus and be productive anyway even if you have a headache#or are nauseous or etc. Not that those are always things to ignore. and of course you should let your body rest and etc. But plenty of peop#e have mild physical symptoms and just work through them. Ithink something about the way my body/mind is SOO hyper attuned to all#sensory information just makes it like... constantly 'GRR well I cant focus on WRITING right now because my lef#t ear feels weird and my socks are too itchy and my back has a strange pressure and I'm vaguely warm and my eye feels some ssort of#way it doesnt normally feel and I'm hyperaware of my breathing and also nauseous for no reason' and like half of those things I#think '''normal''' people wouldnt even notice or at least would be able to just live through. but for me it's like.. nealry impossible to i#gnore and soooo distracting always. like 'wahh.. nooo we can't draw or get anything done.. my legs feel slightly heavy or something!!'#like............. ok......... who cares. thats not even a PAIN sensation it's just something weird. but it's just like.. NO. constant#mental alerts about the 'heaviness' of your legs be upon ye. Though Imean like.. yes.. 70% of the time I am in genuine pain#or having some sort of actual ailment with trackable physical symptoms. but sometimes it's just like... we could totally be working right#now and ignoring this silly thing but my brain is fixated on it for no reason uncontrollably. etc. etc. I guess it's the same way that like#most people can go to a grocery store without the whole experience being so overwhelming and so much stuff going on at once#that they have to rest afterwards but like.. in my own HOME doing NOTHING i feel like I should be able to not get overwhelmed lol. ANYWAY#Rolling my bastard little rock up a dumbass hill and so on and so forth
