Also, one thing I found in the hunter’s journal is that Hornet now canonically loves soft fuzzy creatures and wishes she could pet them.

Specifically, the Furm entry, which states “I would very much like to feel their soft fur, if only they weren’t so hostile,” and the Winged Furm, which says “Huge and soft, a fantastic combination ruined by their haunted aggression”.

What the girl needs is some soup, so sleep, and something fuzzy to pet and she’ll be a peak performance. #TakeCareOfYourselfHornet

something kinda funny to me how Hornet tells an NPC she doesnt need sustenance much due to her nature (Wyrm parenthood maybe?)

...but then later you get a tool thats basically just soup that buffs your speed and damage

and hm hornet do you think maybe theres a connection there

I will say as a cleo fan one of the funniest flavors of stream interaction she does is. okay sometimes these three things collide:

cleo is clearly way more online and way more plugged into certain kink spaces than many of the hermits

cleo has a very dirty sense of humor when left to their own devices

the hermits will just say shit, but sometimes unknowingly

and as a result cleo like. just barely can’t hold themselves back. and she can’t explain herself on stream either so she’s just cackling while going “don’t worry about it” or making a comment that’s just incomprehensible if you, say, are a person who has no reason to know what vore is,

Silksong release date massacre, circa 2025, colorized

[cryptid-of-ohio]

exactly a year ago today, i walked into my local animal shelter with one goal in mind. being a self-confessed sucker, i had gone to the shelter’s website earlier in the week & identified the cat who had been there the longest — a black adult kitty whose stay was 3 1/2 months & counting — and i was not leaving without her

jiji, as i would come to name her, was finishing up ringworm treatment & was thus in isolation away from the other shelter cats. the staff informed me that while she was safe to be adopted out, their shelter policy was that she had to be the last cat i saw that day to avoid any risk of spreading the infection. i assured them that that wasn’t an issue for me — i was here for one cat and one cat only

they repeatedly asked if i was sure about this — i really didn’t at least want to look at any other cats?? my answer didn’t change. yes, i’m sure. i’m here for jiji. no one else.

and so after a bit of paperwork and some wrangling to get her into the cat carrier, jiji came home with me

i quickly learned, however, that the reason jiji had been at the shelter for over three months was that she was, to put it mildly, an asshole. she had been a stray for some time, given birth to kittens very young, and generally had had a rough go of it, so her disposition was understandable, but the fact remained. she was an asshole. upon our first meeting in the shelter, she grabbed onto my foot and started bunny kicking my shoe with gusto. she stole my food as i was eating it. she scratched me so frequently that a coworker noticed & expressed concern.

however, up until this point, i’ve left out a critical detail of the story. a year ago today, possessed by some sort of temporary cat-induced mania, i didn’t adopt one cat. i adopted two.

on the same day, from a totally different shelter, i also adopted a tiny little one eyed kitten named ramona. how i ended up with ramona is another story for another day — the important part is that she was very young and very small, and she joined my hardened stray in my postage stamp sized apartment approximately one hour later

i did my absolute best to follow the standard protocol for introducing cats to each other. i tried to keep ramona in my bedroom and jiji in the living room and to introduce them slowly

but the separation lasted about two days, however, because jiji, my asshole former street cat who viewed my limbs as her favorite scratching posts, took one look at this scruffy little one eyed thing, asked “is anyone going to be this kitten’s mom?”

and didn’t wait for an answer
