Lightbulb / The Lantern / Little Prion

Just wanted to show off my little scug OC. They’re The Lantern! A little sluggy that lives within the can of their local iterator. They were left behind by their family because of a shortage in food while traveling through the grounds of this iterator. Lightbulb crawled their way inside of the superstructure to protect themselves from the rain, feeding on the neuron flies within, earning their glow.

They really like the local iterator because she rambles to them about all sorts of stuff, but Lightbulb lacks the mark of communication, so to them, it’s a lot of funny noises. She calls them “Little Prion”, because they’re literally eating parts of her brain. Lightbulb does leave the can occasionally to explore! They’re sort of recognized as a colony member in a larger group of slugcats, and because they glow, members of this colony refer to them as The Lantern.

Left behind by parent due to food shortage, lacks glow as a pup, really likes local iterator despite her obvious tolerance of them. (The iterator is saying “Oh. Little Prion…”)

As another blog who accidentally got following for funny jokes and content creator by god you summarized how creating content feels on Tumblr nowadays. Like,

No one interacts but at the same time they'll complain that there's no updates, they'll complain that you disappeared but even if you post something no one interacts with. They treat as if people who post things about fandom are just there to be some kind of machine will post something to make them laugh and then reblog in silence.

There's no feedback, there's no community, and it feels weird like some kind of big brother. Where you spend your time and energy making something and then people throw you a like and you're just like blind??? 'Do they still like it?' 'am I doing it wrong?' 'did I lose the flow?' But nope. It seems like every person who makes something in this plataforma feels a different variation of that. And feels so weird talking about it as if you're 'seeking attention' and being too 'hungry' about it. But what are we supposed to do...? Just put our heart and souls by a grand majority that won't take a second to say something and just like and maybe reblog as if you're some advertisement?

Feels weird. I am sorry you feel like that too Sci, your ask-blog is great and you spent a lot of energy co-creating with people and using your creativity. I don't blame you for feeling demotivated. That's a weird era to be in where people don't know how to differentiate that there's someone behind a blog and nor a major corporation that will put something they're interacting or not. Very weird.

it's so very universal, i've seen it all the places, everywhere. i know it's not just a me thing... it's kind of honestly just the way the world operates now. running the blog really did used to give me such an excited feeling to be building this story with other people who were invested and everyone had a hand in pushing wade and peter into all kinds of directions and it was so, so gratifying. and when i left i was still craving that interaction - i wanted to create an interactive instagram account, but i kind of figured it wouldn't work, because the platform just isn't good for it.

something that's largely been absent from my life is community, y'know. it's so difficult to find it, in the city. and i kind of found it through the blog. but online communities feel like something that's dying too. nobody wants to be communal. i've had so many interactions where people are taken aback that i'm just some dumb, tired little human. i'm a tired human who made spider-man comics because it got me friends on the internet. i don't make money doing this. i do it for friends. i... sighs. i miss so many people that used to be around but they're not here anymore. i miss how it used to feel. i don't think i can get it back. i don't know where i can look now, but i don't think i'm going to find whatever i'm looking for here. i guess it's like - i know i have to leave the city because the city makes me feel small and lonely. and maybe i have to leave the internet too. it makes me feel small and lonely.

although i think it's important to acknowledge the complexities of aro & ace identities, & to be welcoming of aroace identities that may be sex/romance favourable/hypersexual & seek those relationships, i think it's still important to acknowledge that completely romance/sex repulsed aroaces are still a minority in the ace community despite being the stereotype. & we should still listen to those voices,

bard/knight snippet word vomit

“i have misstepped and trampled on your heart, and your life, and your… your pain so cruelly, my lord. steve.”

eddie falters, feeling the cold of the rain seep into his bones, but even the pouring stream is not enough to kill the fire within, this burning need for steve to know, the scalding sensation of those eyes trained so intensely on him.

“i have not the words to express the regret i am feeling, nor the guilt, at having wronged you so. i do not ask forgiveness, i— i can only hope that you believe me when i say that i am… deeply and endlessly sorry.“

eddie dares not ask for forgiveness. and he dares not hope to find it in lord harrington’s eyes that seem to soften just a fraction even as the rain intensifies and plasters the locks of his hair to his forehead. water drips from them to enticingly, all but inviting eddie to cradle his cheek so tenderly, and feel the wetness on his skin with a man who wandered deserts for weeks.

he dares not, not anymore. and yet the yearning in his heart still betrays him once more, making him want — for the real steve this time, not for the notion of grandeur and epic romance.

and it is more intense, thus, than the first time, leaving him with shaking hands and stuttering heart as the rain drenches them so thoroughly as though attempting to wash away their history and provide a fresh start.

and it grows in intensity when the lord swallows thickly before his eyes flicker down to eddie’s lips for just the fraction of a second. but it is a second that will cost him a lifetime, he knows, for eddie stops breathing now.

okay the 2 things im struggling w so far is

1) sorting out trash. i know it's good and great that they're recycling everything but how do I do it efficiently like should i have separate bins at home or what.

2) living w someone i don't know and (so far) have 0 emotional/psychological connection w... and she's an australian party girl on top of that (no offense to australians i just didn't think u guys were real and i was hoping for an asian housemate tbh)

small update

ok so um I got my number theory paper today, and the TA had cut marks for me because i left the answer at 66^2 and not 4356 (fermat's little theorem) 😔 I even wrote the full proof

my friend told me I should mail the TA about this, I got 14/20 and should be getting 17or18/20 😔

scores aside, number theory is so much fun, so much fun. the only good thing here is that I know the concepts well, and I fully knew the paper (still fucked it up, because I'm so frickin slow while writing and time). and it hurts worse because there's not enough proof that validates my knowledge. which in turn makes me question if i actually do have any.

I am, in general, a person who does well in concepts but screws up the exams (70% of the time) and I'm trying, I'm trying to get myself out of this "exam paniK" that I often spiral into, just minutes before the exam. I hope I change and grow; I hope, I hope.

Why did I choose to write a slow burn?

To cause the yearning within myself.

Update: Her name is Rosy Sanctuary!

RS doubled as a medical facility for children prior to mass Ascension, and her puppet could be detached from the Umbilical to visit the especially sick children to both analyze and comfort them, hence her cutesy appearance! Despite how demanding her position was, she deeply enjoyed visiting the children and genuinely cared for them.

After Mass Ascension, Rosy began showing symptoms of depression and empty nest syndrome, often isolating herself from her local group and roaming the empty halls of the medical facility. Her can is still in functional condition but has noticeably decreased in activity over the course of many cycles.

Her small size and bright colors make her a target to predators, and she is easily harmed by downpours, so she seldom leaves her super structure. Rosy can leave her super structure at any time, she simply chooses not to for the most part.

For size comparison, AC here is the same size as Pebbles and Moon!

So yeah, Rosy is quite small!

In the days when she had children to tend to, Rosy was also capable of altering her behavior to comfort and meet the needs of each child she visited, and still retains this ability! Sometimes, Rosy will alter her behavior when speaking to fellow Iterators, as both a force of habit and out of concern that she may be obnoxious to others, and that's when she does feel like talking to someone.

Surprisingly, Rosy isn't all that child-like as herself, she's actually quite calm and once carried a strong air of maturity and responsibility when she was still active in her local broadcast. Nowadays, she struggles to communicate and stays in an anxious state if she's away from her super structure.

Rosy is very lonely and wouldn't mind having visitors. In fact, she'd try to adopt every Slugcat she finds if given the opportunity. She feels even better if she can feel like she's taking care of her guests, even if they don't need her care!

Rosy shared a designer with Abundant Curiosity, though neither particularly knew each other.
