Can Hayden get a comfort hug from mm!Talissa?

*You arrived at Hayden's door hoping to see him and maybe comfort him, but before you could knock, a familiar towering figure blocked your way and looked at you with an unreadable expression.*

*Do you want to press further or follow his order and go back to your room?*

---

Heh he ain't in the mood to act nice after that incident, best to follow his order and not make him angrier, no? :]

RPG! Ink 🐏🖌️💛

(sheep Ink is back!)

Ink, a warrior from the Red Ram Clan, a proud tribe of humanoid goats, sheep, and rams. But her simple life was shattered when a blood mage, a mysterious figure from a past life she couldn't recall, attacked her people in search of her. The mage's brutal assault left half her tribe dead, including their most skilled warriors and she was forced to flee to lead the mage away from her tribe. Ink took on the journey of survival, training to confront the mage and avenge her people. Each journey, she's driven by a burning determination to outwit her pursuer and protect what's left of her home.

Ink is an odd black sheep, Nothing seems to be going on with her head. Always smiling and staring into your soul, silent if no one's talking to her but an absolute animal whenever fighting, acting on pure instinct if she sees a threat. Helpful and kind but an absolute menace to society and a thief, always stealing the shiniest objects that catches her eyes. Doesn't like wearing clothes cause in her tribe, beauty and intelligence are just a bonus points, they see attraction in the fighting spirit of a member and how they usually find mates. Only when she met people did she starts wearing clothes cause they force her to wear a decent amount of it for decency.

----

Random fun facts!

A fighter (of course) and could obliterate rocks and metal with her punch.

Also has a hidden dagger but rarely used it, it was just given to her by their chieftain of the clan and just kept it around.

Thief but doesn't know how to be sneaky so she straights up beats someone unconscious to steal lol.

Removes clothes whenever it gets in the way of fighting (don't worry, she has bandages like undergarments because for some reason, those parts freak people out throughout her observation with humans)

She knows some basic healing spells cause in her tribe, girls there need to be taught at a very young age.

Whenever she sees lovers or someone talking about love, she often has flashbacks of the blood mage talking about how they were lovers in the past life.. she just ignores or steps out of the conversation whenever that happens.

Has a short tail on the back

Someone startles her and she'll immediately kick that person that might send them flying (like a horse if you stand behind it)

Young Sheep ink:

Young adult sheep Ink:

Original Ink is canonically strong and works out, she just doesn't like fighting.. unlike in this au where you don't know when she'll attack.. it just kinda happens 🌚

Trickster is slightly annoyed by this lady... and I feel like Trickster also doesn't appreciate an unwelcomed visitor forcing themselves in her house just to kill a member...

Do people know most paper receipts are harmful to their health?

I'm going to get up on my soapbox for a minute, but do people realize how pretty much everyone is being overloaded with endocrine disruptors like BPA/BPS on a near-daily basis??

I don't think many people understand that ever since most of the world transitioned to thermal paper receipts (cheaper than ink), almost every receipt you handle from the gas station to the grocery store to the Square terminal printer at the local co-op is coated with Bisphenol-A (BPA) or its chemical cousin Bisphenol-S (BPS).

These chemicals have not only been proven to cause reproductive harm to human and animals, they've also been linked to obesity and attention disorders.

Not sure if your receipt is a thermal receipt? If you scratch it with a coin and it turns dark, it's thermal.

BPA/BPS can enter the skin to a depth such that it is no longer removable by washing hands. When taking hold of a receipt consisting of thermal printing paper for five seconds, roughly 1 μg BPA is transferred to the forefinger and the middle finger. If the skin is dry or greasy, it is about ten times more. 

Think of how many receipts you handle every day. It's even worse for cashiers and tellers, who may handle hundreds in a single shift. It is also a class issue, since many people who work retail and food service are lower-income and will suffer worse health consequences over time from the near-constant exposure.

Not only that, receipts printed with thermal ink are NOT recyclable, as they pollute the rest of the paper products with the chemicals.

People don't know this and recycle them anyway, so when you buy that "green" toilet paper that says "100% recycled"? Yup, you are probably wiping your most sensitive areas with those same chemicals (for this reason, I buy bamboo or sugarcane toilet paper as a sustainable alternative to recycled paper).

This page from the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency has some good links if you want to learn more.

As consumers, we need to demand better from our businesses and from our governments. We need regulation of these chemicals yesterday.

If you are a buyer or decision-maker for a business, the link above also contains a shortlist of receipt paper manufacturers that are phenol-free.

If you work at a register, ask customers if they want a receipt. If they don't and you can end the transaction without printing one, don't print one!

As a consumer, fold receipts with the ink on the inside, since that's where the coating is. Some more good tips here.

And whatever you do, DO NOT RECYCLE THERMAL RECEIPTS

I will always be curious about Rick’s confession to Birdperson because he didn’t seem to even realize or acknowledge that Rick wanted him as a romantic partner he was more concerned with Rick’s lifestyle.

It makes me wonder if BP thinks about Bloodridge and has realized that Rick loved him in a romantic way causing his past soulbond to be ruined. He missed his shot.

He projected his own insecurities about leaving Rick behind onto Morty and has several photos of Rick in his house but not his past partner. His partner is basically nonexistent compared to Rick.

“And during that time he’s never mentioned anything about his daughter.”

Memory Rick knows about Beth’s death and Dianes so BP is absolutely aware of Rick’s situation and blows off Beth on purpose during his wedding.

I’m going to be the devil’s advocate. Tammy was a rebound and she love bombed BP for information because she was a spy. He grew attached and ran into marriage quickly because of the love bombing.

[boiling-potato]

"All your positivity ignites a hatred deep in me" ahh stare 😭

I'm so inspired right now, I feel like drawing more of these lol

Side note: I'll start answering ask tomorrow

BirdRick: Trust, Home, and Return

Rick C137 meets BP at a rough point in his life--his wife is dead across the multiverse, and he's decided to dedicate his entire life to finding and killing the man who did it.

He's tired, he's grieving, he's numbing himself with drugs and alcohol and hedonistic, short-term relationships that he can quickly leave behind for the next universe. And at first, it seems like his meeting with BP is gonna end up the same--they start a band on a whim while high off their ass, and they have a wacky, contained adventure--

But after...

Rick stays.

Rick stays with that version of BP in that universe. (we see that version of BP's memories in Rickternal Friendshine, we see him with our Rick, we know they share those memories because of how they travel through his mind) He stays even when things start getting uncool, stays when even when things start becoming "work." He stayed with BP from start to finish fighting a revolution he didn't care about!

He gets that impulse again--that need to get out of this universe and travel to another that's slightly different, that's more fun--Rick is an adventure-junkie before all else, and he needs his fix.

But now it's not so easy to leave.

Now, he has someone by his side who he can leave his back to in a war, who makes the time between adventures less unbearable, who's honest and sincere and believes in the value of life and freedom and is willing to die for it. Rick knows for a fact that nothing matters, that the revolution fails before it begins in infinite universes, that in some universes, the oppressed are the oppressors, that infinity dies and is recreated every millisecond across universes--but he... he likes that BP believes. (He makes Rick feel like life isn't meaningless.)

So...

Come with me. Anywhere. Everywhere.

(Notice how Rick's eye bags have gotten better since meeting BP, notice the soft look in his eyes, the way he moves closer instead of moving away)

BP's the first person he's wanted to stay with since Diane. He tells him everything--the portal travel, the multiverse, the fact that infinite universes exist so none matter--nothing matters! Nothing matters, but you matter... to me.

It's Crowley telling Aziraphale they can go off together, it's Grantaire believing in nothing but Enjolras who believes in everything, it's someone in pain who hates everything but loves one person so, so dearly that they grab their hand and tell them to run away with them--

And BP says no.

The very reason why Rick wants BP to come with him is the reason he can't. Rick, against all odds, likes BP's sincerity, his belief that life matters. And BP, with that sincerity and belief, tells Rick that he cannot follow him, because his universe matters to him.

And Rick leaves, hurt. He shoots a portal, walks through, and it's over.

He can find another BP easily. One that wouldn't say no to him, one that would travel the multiverse with him, that sounds like him, moves like him, acts like him.

But he doesn't.

BP tells him to use the beacon if he needs him. We never see Rick use it. Not because Rick doesn't need him,

but because Rick keeps coming back.

We see a picture of Rick holding a baby Morty in BP's house, even though our Morty has only known Rick for 2 years. Even while traveling the multiverse, exchanging Beths and Mortys and Jerrys, Rick keeps coming to see that Birdperson, in that universe.

There's not much that Rick comes back to. Being able to travel anywhere all the time means that he doesn't really have a home.

His original universe is soaked in grief and self-loathing. Diane's voice blares from his garage speakers and blames him for her death. Everything in that garage is dedicated to finding her killer. Rick only wakes up there sometimes in a miserable haze, torturing himself with photos of her.

But sometimes. Rick finds something wonderful in a different universe. A nice leaf. A pretty seed. A new drug that makes you feel absolutely fantastic.

A grandson.

(Framed photo in BP's house)

And who else would he want to show it to, but BP?

Rick does not have many places to return to. His original family is dead. "Home" is just another word for a base of operations to locate Rick Prime. Staying with Our Morty is just another scheme to get closer to Rick Prime. Rick does not have a home. Rick does not need a home.

Rick Sanchez is a hypocrite.

If he truly didn't care about anything but adventure, there are infinite BPs that would be infinitely more convenient to stay with, to go find and visit, who would say the right things, who would come visit him instead of always making Rick come to him, but, to his great chagrin,

"That's not how any of this works."

Rick Sanchez, the smartest man in the universe, cannot choose who he loves.

He keeps coming back through decades, sharing drinks, stories, his very best discoveries--a moment of peace and companionship between his adventures.

What is that, if not a home?

You got..interesting fans. Always like that?

You haven't seen half of them— 🌚

[bluepr1ntyy]

I never see anyone commenting on how Rouge made canonically disabled/neurodivergent shipkids be dislikable and how most of the fandom still has it internalized, I still see people making Palette annoying and making everyone around him hate him for being “the worst”(which is legit just him talking about stuff he likes) and people hating Cray for being “a bully” when he’s canonically a bully victim and a seven year old

[torchickentacos]

I figured it out, you're the designated sitcom B plot character. Like that post about how the B plots are always stuff like "found $100 on the ground" and "a bird is very here"? That's you. You have fun escapades like "my favorite Chinese restaurant keeps sending me giant cups of sauce" and "I had to figure out where to buy a pig fetus" and "spent six hours getting a woodpecker out of my garage" that's sitcom B plot character shenanigans. Kudos honestly.

Oh my god you're right 😭 and I've had several "A bird is very here" situations somehow, actually??? There was the woodpecker in my garage in mid-june and I spent hours trying to get it to leave, there's the neighbor's chicken that gets loose, like, every morning in the summer somehow (I have chased this chicken down the street several times, and she was being a chatty girlie this morning), and there's been numerous injured birds I've caught for the local wildlife center (my mom and I used to be on-call for animal transports, but we stopped for H5N1).

Bonus bird pictures for the birds that are Very Here :)

Also, I don't think I've seen anyone comment on this but Tuesday and Tooth Fairy actually give off similar vibes to each other. Both are presented as motherly, calm and collected characters who slowly become uncanny the more you stare at them. They both speak calmly, sing a nursery rhyme in a similar way (slightly creepy) and have this weird, off-putting aura that I usually can't explain.

The main difference (aside from their opposite color palette) is that one is a sweetheart who cares for children and the other is a malicious woman who interacts with spirits.
