4! 12! 28! 40! 🤓

<3!!!!!! Thank you!!

4. Favorite 80's/90's tv show/s?

Oh, Full House was my JAM. I would wake up early in the morning to watch that. I also loved In Living Color, 3rd Rock From the Sun, AFV, Reba, Fresh Prince, Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel (David Boreanaz still has a place in my heart from that, I had a massive crush on Angel), and I don't remember if it was 90s or 2000s, but I loved CatDog.

12. What are you reading now?

Right now I'm reading: 'Made From Scratch: Reclaiming the Pleasures of the American Hearth' by Jean Zimmerman, and also 'Ghost Hunter' by Hans Holtzer.

28. Share a piece of knowledge?

The earliest manuscript (which actually laid some of the foundations of what we see as a modern novel) that used 2nd person was 'La Montre' (The Watch), written in 1666 by Monsieur Balthazar de Bonnecourse. It was a collection of pose and verse, and was translated from French into English by Aphra Ben. Here's a little snippet:

"Do not rise yet; you may find thoughts agreeable enough, when you awake, to entertain you longer in bed. And ’tis in that hour you ought to recollect all the dreams you had in the night. If you had dreamed anything to my advantage, confirm yourself in that thought; but if to my disadvantage, renounce it, and disown the injurious dream."

2nd person was really rare until the 20th century, the first full novel written in 2nd person didn't appear until 1918, with 'Le Serviteur' (The Servant) by Henri Bechelin - then, it was Rex Stout's novel 'How Like A God' in 1929.

I still remember that from my Master's thesis last January.

40. How do your take your coffee/cocoa/tea?

I take my coffee hot, with almond milk and sweetner! Or, if I make the stop at Starbucks, I get the white chocolate peppermint mocha. Hot chocolate is just with whipped cream and sprinkles :3

2. 7. 22. 29.

stevie, you sent four and i THANK you for so many to keep me occupied.

2. thoughts on veganism?

Whatever you do with your own personal health and lifestyle is not my business, as long as you're not trying to impose your beliefs on others. (Adults forcing their children into veganism or vegetarianism, or shaming family members for making different food choices than them come to mind.) I respect your choice to not consume these things, so you should respect mine *to* consume them.

7. what animal do you look forward to seeing when you visit an aquarium?

Answered this already, but I am also a really big fan of the sharks. I think they're so darn cool, and I love watching them move through the water.

22. do you have an emotional support water bottle?

I do. It's a 40 ounce wide mouth Dark Night Ironflask and it's got a bunch of mando and tlou stickers on it and I drink three of them full of water per day, even when I don't want to.

29. preferred pasta noodle?

Again, this question is BS because there is not one PREFERRED pasta noodle, since different noodles have different applications.

Does ravioli count? Because stuff those with some ricotta and garlic and spinach and I am a HAPPY person. (Actually, it doesn't matter what it's stuffed with as long as it's not fish because I will eat approxmately 30 of them without a second thought no matter what)

orchid. camellia. aloe vera. 🖤

hey there! thank you for asking🤲🏼♥️

orchid: what's a song you consider to be perfect?

yeeesh probably candy by paolo nutini

camellia: what were you like when you were younger? do you think you've changed a lot?

i was loud [still am], cheeky [still am], swore a lot [still do], was smart or "gifted" in certain subjects [now a depressed adult lmao the pipeline goes hard], have a lot of sibs so learnt to play rough and fight dirty [jury’s still out on if this has changed], found it easy to offer my love up to anyone and everyone [less so nowadays]

aloe vera: what's something [mundane] you really want to experience in life?

i can't wait to go to the wedding of someone i care about. it's not necessarily mundane, but i've never been to one ???

Sun. Moon. 2H. 5H. 🩷

💛💛💛!!!! <3 thank you, doll!!! :D!!

Sun - name 5 things you like about yourself?

I have an amazing imagination! I love how vast it is, and how easy it is to come up with ideas and whole new worlds, for that matter.

My intuition is strong, and has not led me wrong - and I am so thankful for that.

My strength. Not just physical, lmao, but I do like that! It's mostly the ability to laugh when shit hits the fan and keep going. To put my head down and work through stuff, or be the rock other people need, to help them through their emotions.

Kinda the same with imagination - I love my creativity. Whether it's working with my hands to make cosplay and prop stuff, or writing and just letting the ideas flow through me, I am immensely creative, and I love every minute of it. (I am also counting my openness and commitment to try new things in this bullet, too)

Kinda a new development, but I love my ability (which I have learned) to not care what other people think of me, and just do my own thing to make me happy, and be joyful about it!

I just have so much love for the person I've become, man.

Moon - do you suppress your feelings?

Depends if the situation initially calls for it! If I do, I put them to the side until I'm in a place that I can process and let them out. But, we don't bottle up emotions here, that just leads to an explosion later on.

2H - do you have any object that you like a little too much? What is it and why?

YES, my tarot cards! Lmao, I have a set that's very art nouveau (which is one of my favorite styles) with gilding on the faces and the edges that I love! It's the Ethereal Visions Tarot by Matt Hughes (the illuminated deck). It was my first tarot deck that I bought for myself, and I've used them for years; it's seen me through a lot.

There's also this one piece of jewelry, I think it's a broach? It belonged to my paternal great-grandmother, who was also into dream interpretation, astrology, and was a tarot reader - but it's just a simple black enamel heart, framed in gold, and I think it's beautiful. I don't wear broaches, but I might figure out how to put it on a chain so I can wear it.

(There it is!! ^^^)

There's also a necklace - so, I had a dream about a month ago that my mom had a gold necklace and it had an ankh on it, and in the dream she gave it to me. I told her about it the next morning, and she went: 'Oh, I actually have a necklace like that, one sec' and it turns out she had a gold necklace with a cartouche on it - that I had never seen before - that she was given almost 30 years ago. So, needless to say, now it's mine, lol!

5H - do you have a hobby? Which one(s)?

I love sewing, cosplaying - I feel like making the props for cosplay should be its own hobby ngl - playing ttrpgs and board games, playin viddy games, swimming, reading, baking, cooking, rping, gardening, language learning, and book binding.

And there's more I want to get into!! I want to learn how to knit or crochet, play the harp, larp, sculpt my own pottery, try making some of my own clothes, weight training, and home brewing my own mead! If nothing else I want to learn more about different culture's mythologies, too. I also want to try fossil hunting, but specifically for megalodon teeth.

ahahaha, you're welcome, i had a blast reading your tags. good to know you have lawyer office experience, if i will ever need help with research, i'll know where to head 👀

I'm so glad I could provide some entertainment! :3 I really thought I was being stealthy with my simping, until I heard Hazel yelling from the bathroom: "ARE YOU STALKING BAS'S TAGS?!" - I cackled hard. If you need any information about lawyer's offices, I have got about 2 years of experience in one, so I gotchu, hmu! Ngl, now that I know of Higuruma's existence, I think I may take Hazel's advice and write a self-indulgent self-insert lawyer office AU ficlet with him. I need it - spiritually, biblically, the works. If and when I do, you'll see it here :3

Have a good day, Bas!

Firebird! Have you given yourself that name or was it someone from the Agency? Also, why aren't you called phoenix? Wouldn't that fit better?

There's a moment of silence as the large built man in an aviators mask processed that he was being directly addressed to now.

"I was a member of an aerial unit called the Firebirds...I was their sixth member..." The frown was evident in his voice, as well as how tightly he held himself.

"We flew and used fire. I think it's pretty straightforward ...we were not supposed to crash and burn." He was not supposed to be the only one to rise from his teammate's ashes. Hell...he couldn't even find the bodies to burn into ash. They were never supposed to be phoenixes.

so many scorbus drawing ideas yet so little time ...

✧Here’s some of mod Scorpii’s headcanons for Calibri while I work on his designs.✧

(Also!! Me and Bee’s headcanons might not always line up with each other’s so we’ll be labeling them and tagging them with either #Scorpii’s headcanons🦂 or #Bee’s headcanons🐝 respectively!!! Ty :-)!!!)

✧I think Calibri would be a total deadhead!! He’s really into psychedelic rock and has a Grateful Dead hoodie he wears everywhere.

✧He definitely flunked high school really bad. He’d show up to class absolutely zooted at 7 A.M. and just coast through the day on nothing but vibes and the edible in his pocket. Papyrus made him at least get his GED afterwards.

✧He totally models his guitar playing after Jimi Hendrix, and Napstaton samples his riffs for his music.

✧That being said!! Calibri definitely has access to Napstaton’s official social media and posts the worst things imaginable on his professional account. It’s always like low res images of Goku with captions like “shidded” and then nothing else.

✧Calibri is the chill homie harboring an unfathomable amount of sadness.

✧Like, his inferiority complex has only gotten worse with age (He’d be about 19-21 in our future au) To be honest, he’s a total basket case that really wants to change, but is too scared to put in the effort.

✧He brings a “we should all quit” vibe to the work place that managers don’t really like.

✧Expanding on that; he’s been fired from pretty much every single job he’s had until Napstaton gave him a job at his record store/radio station.

✧He previously worked at a movie theater and helped kids sneak in to shows through the back, but eventually got caught.

✧Calibri can give you solid music recommendations based on your vibes alone and he’s got a 99% success rate.

✧He asked Trajan to be his trip sitter one time, but as soon as the shrooms hit he got terrified of Trajan’s four eyes and locked himself in the laundry room.

✧He and Hapstablook love to cook together!! He also cooks with Sans too, but it can get to be a really exhausting couple of hours trying to wrangle him into actually cooking the taco meat. So Calibri really values his time with Hapstablook cause it’s usually just a very sweet and calming experience.

✧The bandana in my new design for him is from his uncle Sans 🫶 he has like, a million and wanted Calibri to match with him.

✧He’d rather die than cut his hair.

✧Calibri’s style now leans more into a hippie-punk kinda look, mainly cause he aligns himself with most of the ideals of both subcultures.

Here’s my sketch of his new design so far!! I’ll have a more confident piece for him, this is just a lazy slap-together.

He’s got on that stupid Grateful Dead hoodie and a battle vest full of patches of all his favorite artists.

Never ditched the chucks! He still rocks with his converse- and his fingerless gloves.

He doesn’t tie his hair up as often anymore, but he does dress it up with that bandana that I mentioned!

His tank top underneath has a Misfits logo on it 💪

And that’s a crazy ass monster boof from the Hot-Lands so who knows what’s actually in it.
