[hyp-fixator]

Is this lore? Potentially. Did I have a prompt stuck in my head from a hyperlaser headcannon that I couldn't get out of my head and worked so well in the ANIMALS! au I had to draw it even though it was stupidly late?... yes.

"Why send me then?"

"Hmm?"

"If it's just a hotel, why send a spy?"

I recently found a very cute role reverse au for Yes Precure 5 on AO3, Eternal Precure 5 by LinetteFox! Using the description and the pictures provided by the fanfic I drew a lineup for them :D It’s a very fun spin on the cast, with some role swaps I didn’t expect, a few interesting divergence from canon and some nice dynamics! So far there’s 15 chapters out of 50 and I’m looking forward the next update :D

survey #057

Are you anything like your siblings? I mean in some ways, sure, but I really am mostly dissimilar to most of them. According to Mom though I AM very much like my oldest half-sister Katie. I wish she lived around here. Do you have any good friends of the opposite sex? I do; my boyfriend is my best friend, and I am also close to my WoW "big brother" Sam. I need to reach out and say hi again, it's been a while since we've chatted. Back in the day we used to play the game together while talking on Skype like all day. What can you smell? Lysol. Mom tested positive for Covid today so is tryna keep the house sterilized. Do you want to see somebody right now? Yeah; it's Girt's and my anniversary and he was gonna spend the day with me but Mom being sick threw a wrench in that plan. He himself just got over Covid and I obviously don't want him getting it again. Him staying healthy is way more important. Are you a forgiving person? I'm too fucking forgiving.

Who did you last fall asleep with? Besides my cat, Girt. Would you hug the last person you hugged again? Ha ha yeah, that would be my mom. Maybe TMI but she was measuring me for bra sizing and she ended up squeezing me into a real tight hug when she put her arms around me. She's adorable. Can you be your complete self around the person you like? Yes, and I am extremely grateful for that. Have you had “the best night of your life”? I thought so. If you were offered to smoke some weed right now, would you accept? Probably no but idk. Do you prefer to take showers at night or in the morning? In the morning, primarily because that's when I have more strength, but also because I feel like I started off my day productively. Who’s the most controlling person you know? Probably my sister's fucking husband. To name just one bullshit thing, he refuses to let Ash go to the gym because that MUST mean she's going to see other guys. I hate his guts. Does anyone keep a photo of you in their purse/wallet, and if so, who? I doubt that. How many instruments do you own/have you owned? Three: recorder, flute, electric guitar. Do you own a microphone? No. Do you enjoy trailers at the cinema? I do. Have you ever been burgled? No, thankfully. Do males look good in skinny jeans? Yep, I was into that in high school especially. For or against guyliner? I LIVE for guyliner asldkfjalkwsejr;awe What’s the name of one of your friend’s dog? Uh I mention Charlie enough so how about Mazzy and The Love of My Life named Beemo. :') I like all of their dogs' names but Beemo is just special to me ok Name a pet you definitely wouldn’t want. A giant centipede, like African ones and stuff. They are mega cool animals but are also terrifying at the same time; they are SO fast and their bites are notoriously horrendous. What’s the last thing you bought from eBay? Uh, good question. I think MAYBE back when Mom was trying to get the game Ico for me, she used it. We got the game twice from there and each time the game didn't work, boo. It's an old PS2 game so is no longer produced and is hard to find anywhere at a reasonable price. Do you have a picture of you throwing up the peace sign? Yeah, I actually - shocking - quite like that picture of me. Does your father have any facial hair? Yes. Did your grandparents teach you anything? How to not be an old-fashioned, bigoted witch, yes. Have you ever been to Arizona? Did you like it? No, but Arizona is actually a place I would like to visit to herp primarily just to see a Sonoran coachwhip snake (they're mostly pink!) as well as tarantulas. Maybe even a Gila monster and/or rock rattlesnake! When was the last time it rained where you live? Last night. Have you ever played Cards Against Humanity? Did you like it? Yeah, and it's gotten some laughs outta me for sure. You just caught your bf/gf kissing someone of the same sex. Reaction? Well he's straight so I'd be very confused and also very angry because we're together. Reach your right arm out. What do you touch? Girt's pillow. You have to write a story for English, due tomorrow. What do you write? Realistically it would probably be like a random spin-off of an RP story or something relating to meerkats in general. Any concerts you’re attending coming up soon? Not that I know of, but Rammstein will be announcing more US tour dates next month and I am PRAAAAAYINNNNNNNNG they pick somewhere near here. ;_; What part of the body did you last get pierced? Uhhhh I wanna say tongue? But it may have been my tragus, idr. Any of your friends getting married? My friends Rachel and Tommy have their wedding soon! They sent out a Facebook RSVP and honestly I'm thinking of going. I'd love to get closer with them. Who was the last person you took a picture with? My niece and nephew, I think? Are you currently talking to/texting/instant messaging anyone? Not at the moment. What’s one thing you’d like to accomplish in your lifetime? Publish one relatively successful piece of artwork. What’s your biggest concern right now? My mom being okay. She feels really, really sick and is immunocompromised so reaslitically, just frankly, she could die. She hasn't had her booster shots, so... that makes things worse. How many different people of the opposite sex have you cried over? One romantically, another in the platonic/familial way. Ever been to a friend's house and starved the whole time? Aha, yeah honestly. Who’s the last person you had a sleepover with? Girt. What’s the biggest bruise you’ve ever had? I'm actually not sure. Who is the youngest person in your immediate family? My two-year-old niece. I actually don't know if nieces/nephews are considered "immediate" family, but I consider them such. Do you remember the last song you slow danced to? lol kindly fuck off Do you plan on having alcohol at your wedding? I've never thought about this, but probably not. I wouldn't want even the risk of guests driving home intoxicated being present. Are you one of those people that are always cold? No, I'm absolutely always hot. Have you ever gone spotting deer? Oh my god, this brought back SUCH a treasured memory. When I was a little kid, sometimes at sunset my dad would take my sisters and me across the street between our neighbors' houses where there was some woods and a field, and deer frequented the spot. God, it was always so beautiful. The memory is really faint, but it's there for sure. We'd get so excited if they were out. Do you think your ex still wants to be with you? Most likely not. Has a boyfriend/girlfriend ever put alcohol/drugs before you? No, I would never tolerate that. Are you listening to music right now? No, I'm watching Game Grumps play I'm On Observation Duty 5. What are your initials? BMD. What was the last thing you ate? I had a chicken sandwich for dinner. When was the last time you ran? It's literally been years. How did you get one of your scars? Fainting straight onto my chin in the bathroom. Who do you text the most? I pretty much only text my mom. I talk to my boyfriend and friends via Discord nowadays. Do you wish you had a pool table? Not especially. We used to have one when I was younger, though. Ash's kids have it now. Ever been to Olive Garden? Many times, it's my favorite "fancy" restaurant. What is something of which you need more in your life? Adventure and fun, really. Money. Do you tend to view your existence as more pleasant or unpleasant? Unpleasant, quite honestly. When was the last time you ate a great deal of food in one sitting? Not sure. Do you enjoy talking about music with others? YES. Is acting something you enjoy? No, I feel VERY awkward. Who was the last person to do something kind for you? Uhhh Mom brought home dinner yesterday. What was going on the last time you were in a bed with someone else? ... stuff lol What color of hair do you find the sexiest on the opposite gender? Of natural hair colors, usually black, but in like, ANY individual I am generally more attracted to colored hair. Has someone of the opposite sex ever told you that you were sexy? Yeah. Who is the last person you sent a message to on Facebook? Just checked, it was my sister Misty. We briefly chatted recently, just checking in on each other. What was the last thing you said? I told Mom as she was laying down for bed that if she needed anything during the night to wake me up. Do you ever get flu shots? The only flu shot I've ever gotten was the initial Covid vaccine. I really do need to get my boosters as well as the regular influenza shots in the future, though... I just don't like getting shots because they burn and I never feel like going out of my way to get them, either. Plus I'm like, always home so feel less at risk. I should get them regardless, though. Do you turn your computer off completely at night, or just standby? I never turn it off, honestly. Is there one show you just can’t stand? I might get hell for this, but the show Teen Mom upsets me extremely. Teenagers ARE NOT meant to be parents and I will always believe the show glorifies it, even if it's not intended. Some topics are not meant to be the focus of a television show. Do you watch Disney Channel and Nickelodeon still? No. Do you like white Christmases? Absolutely!! Can you shoot a basketball? Yeah, at least I used to be pretty good at it. I know the basic idea of how to correctly; I actually used to quite like playing it when I was a kid. Have you ever gotten stuck in an elevator? omfg no, thank GOD Have you ever had to go to the police department? No. Have you ever had a home grown tomato? Yes, they're actually not bad for a sandwich, and I generally hate tomatoes. When we were still friends, Colleen would sometimes give me some of her in-law's from their garden since I helped a lot out there (even though I hated every second of it lmao) and they tasted like, NOTHING like those from the store. Have you ever lived through a hurricane? Many; hurricanes are common where I live. Do you like to draw? I love to draw, I just wish I was better. Do you have soft hands? Do you like holding hands? I have EXTREMELY soft hands, so soft that I frequently can't even open bottle caps because it hurts too much. I only like holding hands with my partner or if you're my niece Emerson and she wants to drag me somewhere, ha ha.

Hong Kong

Date: Exactly the 2 weeks post departing from Korea

I have to confess that I was not in the happiest mood while visiting in Hong Kong. My eye infection had been exacerbated by sudden change in humidity, and the pollution/cigarette smoke probably wasn’t great help either. I spent majority of my time locked up in my room, A/C dialed to the setting closest to freezing, and napped a lot because one eye was essentially swollen shut.

Anyway, on my good days, my dad and I went about having teas (dimsum) and visiting relatives!

The Fairwood had these fairly affordable and satiating lunch sets, so we definitely had to try them out. Hong Kong milk tea always has a special place in my heart.

Taking pictures here and there. Uncanny messages in the subway. If anyone knows what this vent(?) is for, message me so I can be enlightened!

Everyone who’s ever visited Hong Kong saayy: Please mind the gap. 

I live on a beautiful farm in the rural parts where the air seems juuuust a fraction more refreshing, with tons of space to roam around, surrounded by greenery and, well, excavators(?) 

My grandparents grow a variety of plants

My Grandfather in his throne that’s exactly 2 meters from the television (I’m not lying, he could probably touch the TV with his feet if he pointed them)

The dawgs

Now who would need double doors at this height

My dad brought me to an old area of HK that he said was a popular area when he was a teen. It is full of fabrics and C Lai things haha

My father was FasCINated by these giant ginsengs and told me to take a pic. He also thought it would cheer me up from the discomfort of my eye infection AND HE WAS CORRECT THOSE WERE GIANT

I went to a very sad washroom on the upper floor of a mcdonalds

Saw our fave/go-to from when we were in Korea

No where near the excellence of Coco Curry!!!

Did you even go to Hong Kong if you didn’t have a bowl of wonton noodles? Also, it is a little unbelievable that we used to have these for around $3 CAD and now they’re about $9.

I really enjoyed this apple crumble McFlurry CEPT there was one occurrence where I already paid for it and then they told me there was no apple crumble (but thankfully they still had apple syrup). They asked if I wanted something else, but really I just wanted apple L O L mini rant.

There are many bridges in Hong Kong

There’s a adjective in Japanese 素敵 roughly translating to “splendid”. I think that our farm looks splendid when there’s daylight, and horror-ish in the night time (because there’s no sources of light and many dark, looming shadows of unfamiliar shapes). 

Here come the doggos to greet us, or bark if they don’t recognize me - usually the case.

On our way to pick up the sis and Andrew

McDs at the airport! The chicken avocado was my go-to.

I think a chicken burger meal is about $5 CAD.

Airport installments 

I tried to take a picture of a humming bird. 

My grandparents keep lotsa plants. I think it’s a lovely retirement thing 素敵 素敵. 

My father explaining things, probably about land and taxes.

I am so, SO blessed that we have such a beautiful place to stay in Hong Kong.

We have a garden for herbs, fruits, and vegggg 

Reminds me of 小白 so much.

Seew Keung of course. Not only do we have an abundance of space, plants, wildlife, WILD.LIFE. We have giant millipedes (click for size reference), lizards, chameleons, praying mantises hiding in the choi, raccoon-type things, rattlesnakes?, cobras. Wake up with a small centipede on your chest? No biggie. Weird if there wasn’t one there to wake you up, we don’t got roosters for that. Giant spider on your bed? Only amateurs put their vacuum in the storage closet, or anywhere else that’s not right beside the bed for that matter. I’m rambling. It’s 4:52AM as I’m writing this.

I love my dad, he is my bestest friend :) 

I would also want my restaurant to be double the goodness of other restaurants.

Heh dogge

kek

Kept tellin my dad I wanted icy mooncake because I’m a brat, heh.

Horror-ish, you can imagine 

My grandma always makes these springrolls using tofu skin with meat and tofu skin with taro. I never worry about starving in Hong Kong. My grandparents are always worried I’m not a miniature sumo or something.

I’m told I look like my grandma, I’m not really sure I see the resemblance, but it’s nice cause I think she’s pretty cute. We asked her if grandpa was a handsome guy when they were younger and she said he was pretty handsome.

My grandpa said she was “ma ma dei” tho L O L. See my grandpa was hipster before you were hipster. ｓａｖａｇｅ　ａｎｄ　ｈｉｐｓｔｅｒ

Okay flying away shoooooom

I am glad that I live in an age where I can take a plane across the oceans and lands to see people near and dear to me. It was kind of sad for me to see in person the kind of effects politics has on the people, and I truly felt a sadness and almost helplessness that maybe some of the younger people feel strongly about. It is kind of sad to see one country with one heritage become so divided. 元気を出して皆！大変だけど、皆もうがんばりました Til next time, Hong Kong!
