Making up

[haveihitanerve]

The robins are always calm, cool, collected. This goes for all the Batkids, no matter what stage they are (robin, pre robin, post robin, alive from being dead robin) so imagine the utter fear, the horror every single member of the Justice League feels, literal gods and metas, when one of their composures snaps. Why? Because the Batman has gone missing.

To Call A Storm To A Remote Location

Prepare for the purpose a map.

Best if it’s hand-traced from an accurate map, but an image of an accurate map can be printed on paper if necessary.

Ensure the map is sufficiently large and detailed to encompass the entirety of the area to which you wish to call storms, and if possible (not required) print or draw the map on paper prepared first by smoking it with incense or better yet, the smoke of an herb(s) appropriate to your denominations methods for bringing rain. Broom has been used, as have ferns. If this method is chosen ensure adequate ventilation, this is best performed outside.

Once a map is prepared, lay it out and directly above it place a dish of water (rainwater or forgewater is best but not necessary) and have either a feather, a pendulum, or an aspergillum ready. To bring more vicious storms thorns may be burnt to ash, with which the water may be adulterated, to force heavier rain, the ashes of the chosen herbs may be used instead.

Call forth whatever spirits your denomination demands and communicate to them your intent. I use this:

“Tis not a map I wish to wet;

But the lands it holds instead;

And thus where tears of water fall;

let there, instead, great storms be called”

Repeat this as you enter trance, and stir the prepared water until it sighs with power.

Use your selected implement to collect water, droplet by droplet, and ever chanting, wet the map thoroughly in the places storms are to gather until the work. This method is simple, and adaptable to most forms of storm calling work.

[yeehawpim]

quick question do you ever come to events on Vancouver Island/ would you consider coming to an event here? :)

Yeah maybe! I'd have to find an event that would let me table haha

I know Capital City Comic Con is a thing there but it hasn't happened since 2022? Complete opposite side of the country, but if I'm accepted I'm going to Toronto Canzine in October so there's that 🤞🤞🤞

Soul Society in 64-bit

Earlier, I wrote about the timey-wimeyness of District 80.

In the palace of my mind, this is what that looks like:

This is a screenshot from the very popular and well-known "this came downloaded on my device from factory" game, Nanosaur (1998).

Like many games of the era, there's a mysterious white fog, within which the rest of the environment hides until you move into it and the program has to load it. But if you go to the edge of the game's map, you just continue to walk interminably through the white fog. There's no wall you hit; you just keep walking through white and could keep walking through white forever. Can you be lost forever in the mist? Maybe. But if you turn around, you magically return immediately to the edge of the map. (I'm sure this technical limitation was not at all unique to Nanosaur. Nanosaur just happens to be the only computer game I played that wasn't from the Scholastic Book Fair.)

But anyway, thinking about this today made me think about Rukia firing up the chic, round, 90s gumball iMac in Isshin's office to play Nanosaur, and shouting the entire time, "THIS IS JUST LIKE HOME FR!!!!!!!!!" much to Ichigo's deep disbelief/concern for Soul Society.

(In Nanosaur, you play a dinosaur from the future who's been sent back in time with 20 minutes to steal eggs before the asteroid hits, and for some reason you have a jetpack and are armed with multiple types of projectile weapons. Rukia would absolutely fuck with this game and beat all of Isshin's high scores.)

--

Similarly, my vision of what sewers are is almost 100% based on what sewers look like in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. (Even though I've read the Magic School Bus book about the water cycle, and I've been to a sewerage museum! Both premier avenues for learning about sewers!)

I feel like when (in the anime's universe) Hanatarou and Ganju were working at the combini with the manager who had a crush on Ganju, the manager invited Ganju over to Nintendo and Chill. But Ganju, not understanding the intent of the invitation, assumed it also included Hanatarou and brought him along. Which resulted in Ganju and Hanatarou playing the combini manager's Nintendo and Hanatarou, shouting just as loudly as Rukia, "IT'S JUST LIKE HOME FR!!!!"

Unlike Rukia and Nanosaur, Hanatarou was terrible at OoT. But he got really good at flying around with all the chickens.

IDK, there's just something about Soul Society that makes it feel like it should be perceived in 64-bit.

rudy hides his feral nature behind his soft eyes and thumb hole hoodies, he aimed to shoot soap’s neck in the safe house - a slow and messy death - and in the prison, he tackles a shadow to the ground, throws haymakers at him then shoots him, man is unhinged

[super-duper-stupor]

Well color me traumatized, I survived a massive thunderstorm that was predicted to be tornadic, which at the time of said trauma I felt incredibly guilty for since i was the one to suggest we go to a place with a basement since we don't have one here and my mom's friend invited us to her house with a basement and she lives like 3 minutes away from us and i assumed the storm was still quite a ways out. So we were on our way to shelter when the massive wall of wind, rain and hail overtook us on the highway and was strong enough to push our car sideways even when it was still. And I was scared and hella overstimulated as well because it was so loud that we couldnt hear each other speak due to the high velocity of the hail and rain hitting the windows. If i wasnt already afraid of high winds before well i sure am now brother🫠

[frankensteined]

it's been ten years so it needs to be said: the hinterlands being dragged for having too many aggressive bears in them is disingenuous when you look at the godforsaken landscape that is the storm coast
