Fun bird story! I once visited a sea bird rescue sanctuary during feeding time, where the volunteers explained to us the numerous not-caged egrets and great blue herons hanging around were former residents who remembered the nice humans and their food wheelbarrow, and didn’t get why said humans were suddenly shooing them away from sticking their entire faces in it. Per one of them: “They’re friendly, although once one of them landed on me.” Needless to say, I visited more than once.

I don’t know what it would be like to be landed on by a great blue heron but I imagine it would be like someone throwing a pillowcase full of tie rods at you unexpectedly

Honestly that’s my favorite part of writing

it just feels so weird to me to say, ‘yes, i have a fully fleshed out human being living in my brain telling me what they will or will not do, and i don’t get any say in the matter,’ which is not wholly accurate but the best way i can think of to describe it.

boudiscanon replied to your post: “Sports anime”:

There are a few that are female centered, but yeah not nearly as many as boys' ones. I did a quick scroll through crunchyroll and found all of 5. Chihayafuru, Saki, Teekyu, Walkure Romance, and Wanna be The Strongest In The World. Female teamwork and friendship building anime tends to fall into the Magical Girl Genre instead. It would be nice to see more girls' sports anime! I'm seriously hoping for a Yuri on Ice spinoff featuring the female skaters tbh

Yeah, that’s really a shame. I like some anime from the magical girl genre. Sailor Moon was the first anime I saw. It’s just I wished there was more representation of people who don’t identify as male in other genres. The sports animes are becoming more popular, which isn’t a bad thing. But it would be awesome if the main characters weren’t always guys. Equal representations of characters regardless of race, gender, creed, etc would be the best. That would be awesome if Yuri on Ice did that. I would watch it if there’s a spin-off with women.

A fun story for everyone: Today both my bunnies wanted to nap, but instead of napping they argued for over an hour about which of them was going to initiate the nap, resulting in Butt shoving his entire head under Thu while she cleaned herself and later Thu ripping a leaf out of Butt’s mouth as he ate it. Eventually they got their snuggles in order, but don’t let anyone tell you buns are not made of drama. Anyway I hope your wrist recovers soon!

thanks! I don’t understand how rabbits work.

we don’t adventure to fight monsters and be hero’s we just came to enjoy the scenery and maybe find a neat lookin rock

can we just stay inside and play video games

[ungarmax]

All the vidya game asks tho. All Of Them

1. Favorite game from the last 5years?

Idon’t even know what came out within the last five years.  I thinkI’m gonna have to go with Stardew Valley?  It’s my game on Steam withthe second most hours logged, but the one that has the most hourslogged came out 6 years ago.  I haven’t played it in a while, but Ido really like it.

2.Most nostalgic game?

Hmm. That’s probably a tie between Link’s Awakening and Final Fantasy IV. Link’s Awakening was the first non computer video game I ever owned,and FF4 was my first RPG.  That said, there’s a special place in myheart for the old SNES version of Wing Commander, the game Icommandeered at my cousins’ house every weekend.

3.Game that deserves a sequel?

Thething is, the best games in the world are the ones that don’t needsequels because they’re very well self-contained, or they’re alreadya part of a series.  I’m tempted to say Chrono Trigger, becauseChrono Cross doesn’t count as a sequelso much as a spiritual successor.  But I also want my children torest.

4.Game that deserves a remaster?

Inever trust these…sometimes they are done well, like the remastersof FF4 and Chrono Trigger for DS, those were both excellent.  But Ilook into the future and think about how the FF7 remaster is going totake out all the dumb 90s cool guy lingo, and then I don’t like it somuch.

UnlessI’m wrong about what a remaster is?  Because I just remembered thatwhen they rereleased FFX with better graphics, that was called aremaster.

Eitherway, I just suddenly decided I need a new version of Quidditch WorldCup because that was the fucking best game ever made.

5.Favorite game series?

Ihaven’t kept up to date with a lot of game series, thanks to lack offunds for the past few years, and most of the series I enjoy, Igenerally really like a couple of the games from it and eitherdislike or haven’t played the rest.  Contenders are Final Fantasy,Metal Gear Solid, AceAttorney, and Legend ofZelda.  But I’m way behind on all fourof them, and Final Fantasy has been…disappointinglately, to say the least.

Oh! Dragon Age has been pretty dang good thus far!

6.Favorite genre?

Ireally love RPGs, but lately I’ve been playing nothing but this citybuilder/RTS game and a couple of rogue-likes.  I also love MMORPGs,but I haven’t had the money to pay for a WoW subscription in manyyears, and, uh, I only own up to Cataclysm, lol.  Oh, and good ol’point and clicks hold a special place in my heart too.

7.Least favorite genre?

Firstperson shooters and platformers.  I also usually dislike rogue-likes because I liketo min-max and the point of rogue-likes is that you literally cannotdo that.

8.Favorite song from a game?

ThePrice of Freedom, from Crisis Core.

9.Favorite character from a game?

FarisSherwiz from FF5.

10.Favorite ship from a game?

WOWwhat a question.  I think I’m gonna have to go with Zack Fair/CloudStrife, since it’s something I’ve shipped consistently for 15 years.

11.Favorite voice actor from a game?

Ilike a whole lot of them, but I’m particularly fond of ChristopherRandolph’s voice.  It’s to my extreme sadness that he’s not done muchother than Voice Of Otacon, but that’s okay.  Apparently, he’s beendoing more since MGS, so that’s cool, but I’ve still barely heard ofanything he’s been in.

12.Favorite cutscene?

Thefirst thing that came to mind was The Sending in FFX.  Anothercontenders is Zack and Cloud escaping the lab in OG FF7 (as long asyou turn off the game right after the truck scene).  Those are thetwo I always keep save files right before that.  Though I will saythat the scene in MGS before you fight the Boss in the flower field,or really, the entire ending cinematic of that game, is fuckingamazing too.

13.Favorite boss?

GOD,WHAT A QUESTION.  Does this mean, favorite boss battle?  Or favoritecharacter who is also a boss fight?

Myfavorite kind of boss is a difficult one that you need some sort ofstrategy to beat, so that you feel vindicated for winning.  However,that said, this can border on annoying too, because, if it’s amandatory battle that you can get stuck on, that’s frustrating.  So Iguess optional bosses are the best?  I’m thinking like Ruby andEmerald in FF7, and Sephiroth in Kingdom Hearts.  I also tend toreally like Zelda bosses because you can’t just hit ‘em, you gottafigure out how to use your brand new toy to do it.  (Exceptthe water bosses for some reason?  They all suck.)

Myfavorite character that you fight as a boss battle…probably Golbezor Kain Highwind from FF4.  Which do I like better?  I don’t know. There’s also the Boss from MGS3, of course.  AndMiles Edgeworth?  He’s a boss, right? There are probably more that I can’t think of right now.

14.First console?

Thefirst console I ever played was an NES, but the first one I everowned was a SNES.

15.Current console or consoles?

NES,SNES, N64, GameCube, Wii, PSX, PS2, and PS3.  I also have a GameBoyColor, a DS, and a 3DS by technicality.

16.Console you want?

I’dlove a PS4, but it’s not like I can afford any games for it anyway.

17.Place from a game that you’d like to visit?

Thisis a really intriguing question, since games like Final Fantasy havesuch interesting and beautiful locations.  There are so manybeautiful places just within the few FF games I’ve actually playedthat this is a really hard choice.  The problem is that all theseplaces generally have monsters in them.

MaybeCleyra or the Farplane or the City of the Ancients?

18.Place from a game that you’d like to live in?

Doyou think Cosmo Canyon has WiFi?

19.Ridiculous crossover that would never happen but would be super fun?

FF4/TAZcrossover where apparently Lucretia is FuSoYa because they’re both incharge of fake moons.

20.Book that would make a good game?

I’mso tired right now I can’t think of a single book I’ve ever read inmy entire life.  Like, the book I am reading right now is based on avideo game, so, I mean,

21.Show/Movie that would make a good game?

MacGyver! (Thank you, @perniciouslizard.)  Like, it should be a point and click game,probably based on the old show because it had less boring fightscenes, and you can do QTEs for those even though I hate QTEs.  Aslong as the game isn’t entire QTEs (I’m looking at you, Heavy Rain),it should be okay.

22.Games you want to play?

Thereare a Lot.  Off the top of my head, I’d really love to finish DragonAge: Inquisition, and just to play, Persona 5, Breathof the Wild, allthe Ace Attorney games I haven’t played yet (there are at least 2,maybe more?), all the Pokemon games I haven’t played yet (whichis…most), Oxygen Not Included, all the Mass Effect games andFallout games, Night in theWoods, aaaand probably lots of others.  I’m tired.

23.Have you gotten 100% completion in a game?

Yep. I have 100%ed FF4, I think, and also Link’s Awakening.  Maybeothers, but those are the two I was proudest of.  Actually, I don’tknow if FF4 counts?  I got all the items (except possibly theincredibly rare thing with a ridiculous drop rate, but I don’tremember?  I got all the extra summons for Rydia, though, which was aThing), but I didn’t level everyone up to 99.  I’m working on a 100%FF7 run right now, but that’s gonna be a pain because I don’t knowhow to play the Fort Condor minigame.  I usually just let them get tothe top and beat them up, but you can’t get all the items if you dothat.

24.Have you cried over a game?

Thismorning I cried because my cat scratched me while I was clipping hisclaws.  I cry playing basically every video game, whether or not it’ssad.  My top three crying games, though, in no particular orderbecause they’re all Really Fucking Sad, are FFX, Crisis Core, andMGS3.

25.What power-up or ability would you want IRL?

*thumbto bandana* Infinite ammo.

[ungarmax]

Nani!? Legs desu ka!??

amber i cannot post the proper reply to this query as i am ashamed it exists and also this is a mostly sfw blog

[ungarmax]

What if, and hear me out here bc this is serious, there was a Wa version of Taako and Lup. Waako and Walup.

Doyou know what this is, Amber?  This is what would happen if somehowthe Hunger managed to consume Taako and Lup.  Like, you know, thepower bear and all that jazz.  All black, and wearing yellow andpurple overalls...

Imagine,though, the Hunger comes early one cycle, but it doesn't attack thenormal way.  Instead, the crew sees two figures striding toward them,their faces obscured by the blackness.  Tendrils of black leap fromtheir bodies like a fire of darkness, and they make no sound whenthey walk.  It's Waako and Walup, the Hunger twins.  They are nothere to fight.  Instead, they want to beat you at go karts and play afew rounds of tennis.

Alternatively,if Taako is Mario, that means that Kravitz is Princess Peach, and I'mhere for that.  Thank you, Taako, but the Reaper is in anothercastle.

[ungarmax]

boudiscanon replied to your post: Would Taako: a) not care about pit hair, b) remove...

Now I am picturing an argument on the starblaster about whose gross beard hairs are on the counter and taako accuses merle and merle accuses magnus and magnus insists it could be barry or capnport and it turns out its lup’s pits whoops sorry my dudes
