Started teaching Odyssey jump-ups to help get him back in shape for the hunting season! Hes a cheater tho, he just jumps to his perch first instead of to my glove LOL. I'm not too worried about that tho cus right now I just want to get him used to the overall procedure of jump up -> reward with meat tossed on the ground -> repeat.
Right now I'm just working on getting him in shape until his feathers finish growing in (you can see the patchiness in his tail where some of the feathers aren't full-length yet LMAO) and then it's HUNTING TIME BABY!!! Fingers crossed that he'll actually manage to catch more than 2 squirrels this season LMAO
If five pebbles was ever built for zephyr the same way he was built for moon, would he ever see her as a mentor?
i imagine that he'd!!! be more open with her than he is with Moon, because their personalities match better. Zephyr isn't really the doting, overprotective kind. She didn't have the chance to learn how to be affectionate and warm even though she wishes she could be and she needs to watch her own systems like a hawk 24/7 so she ain't got the attention to spare to nag at him even if she wanted to. they'd end up bonding over their anger at the injustice of the Iterators' fate, though
Pebs would probably take someone else as Mentor™ (she wouldn't be capable of fullfilling the expectations of that role), but he'd probably still look up to her a lot. she'd be like. a not-the-title mentor in the specific field of being angry at their situation and doing Something about it
I've been watching this Scp guy Dr.Sherman on youtube lately, so now I have ideas XD I'm sure it's already been done or is just silly but anyway:
An SCP known as the skeptic, maybe discovered cause they guest starred on a ghost hunting show once or something similar. Their anomalous ability is that anomalous things don't work or act normally around them.
At first this seems like a neutralizing ability, but it will turn out to be a transference ability. Whatever affect would have happened to the Skeptic or those in visual range/audio contact with them instead happens to someone unknown to the skeptic at random. Example: If they blinked in front of Scp-173, a stranger in another room or building or town would end up with a snapped neck instead.
The ability seems focused in proving their belief that supernatural/weird things don't exist. So it can't effect anyone they know well enough to be used as proof, or effect someone that can be seen.
This also applies to "nice" SCPs. I haven't decided if something nice would happen randomly to someone, or if the reverse effect would happen instead. Like they approach 999 and instead of feeling nice the affected subject feels horrible depression. But it seems more straight forward if the standard ability is always what transfers?
Also with things that look weird, like shy guy or 999, I'd guess they wouldn't actually see what's really there. Just a skinny man or a pile of goo, or like with 682 maybe a poorly maintained taxidermy.
EDIT: also obviously if an scp like this already exists I would like to see it.
bitches cant be normal about fic writing they'll watch something silly and not meant to be taken seriously "hmmmm yes but have you thought about the horrific implications of living through such an event" and proceed to write the most fucked up shit you've ever read
Anything else from the foster au that you're willing to share? I'm a sucker for foster care fics and I can't wait until this gets posted!
I can't wait to post it though right now I'd settle for 'stop adding more chapters, me'.
I too am a sucker for Foster Care AUs and also Best Dad Ray Molina, so here's some Ray being a good (foster) dad, a snippet where Ray wonders if Reggie is maybe more of an auditory learner after he flunked a test he studied hard for:
“How about for your next test, I read the chapters out loud for you?” Ray suggested. “And we’ll see if that makes any difference.”
“I don’t want to waste your time,” Reggie said. That sounded like a lot of work, and Ray had his own kids to worry about, and his job, and fending off Aunt Victoria’s comments about how they were eating spaghetti again by making macaroni instead.
“It’s not time wasted if I’m hanging out with you,” Ray said, giving him a smile. “Let’s give it a try, and see if it helps, alright? If not, we’ll try something else.”
The tears that prickled at the edges of Reggie’s eyes weren’t in frustration this time. “Okay,” he agreed.
Also I cannot express how much I love job systems in games, does anyone know any good games with versatile job systems? The most I know is Final Fantasy, Octopath Traveler, Fantasy Life and I suppose Fire Emblem
i think the biggest issue i have with having been homeschooled is that it makes literally everything having to do with college INFINITELY MORE DIFFICULT.
