Angora/“Fluffy” Rats

It’s time for a rat fun fact. There is a fancy rat coat type called “angora” or “fluffy” that is super hard to find and only exists in New Zealand. Because NZ has such strict import/export laws, they’re pretty much impossible to find anywhere else, and the line has only been worked on by a select few breeders.

Not many people know about this coat type but it’s absolutely gorgeous and these rats don’t have as many skin issues as the harley coats we have in other countries, so I wanted to bring more awareness to it. Even if many of us don’t the ability to adopt rats with this coat type, it’s still interesting to learn about! Hopefully as the coat type gets more popular they’ll be available in more places.

All these photos are from Scruffians Rattery, one of the few angora breeders that exists:

school has been literally draining me lately but i promise (when i do have the time) im writing and not dead lol

anyways dumb little headcannon i have but Colorado is definitely a werewolf. he's either a) is one and hides his ears under his beanie and his tail in his pants somehow or b) not physically a werewolf but dresses or bases his aesthetic around werewolves.

i have literally been foaming at the mouth for days about stupid high as fuck Colorado wolfing around.

and dont even get me started on his kids (his cities)??? his kids would all have little wolf ears and tails and just be getting themselves into trouble all of the time.

'scruffies' or 'the scruffians' would be the nickname he'd call his pups.

also he literally dies when called a good boy. fight me.

i have so many made-up stories about him and his little scruffies just getting into trouble and being a wholesome family that i think i might explode. /pos

i really want to write a story about the shenanigans that he and his family get into so i might.

most of this is just me projecting onto Colorado but idc i love him so much lol

Trial of the Zora Armor - Chapter Nine - Those in the Shadows

*Somewhere in the Gerudo Desert*

Two Yiga soldiers appeared and walked into a banana-peel-laden banquet hall and bowed. Two other Yiga, alongside a mysterious prophet of Ganon's, sat at the table discussing amongst themselves.

"Master Kohga. We bring a report on the attack at Hyrule Castle."

The prophet turned, eerily watching the soldiers, while Kohga clapped.

"Oh, goody!"

"This battle formed two fronts, so I will deliver information on the intended front and he will for the sudden."

"Two fronts? Did the Hyrulean Army surround you?" The prophet asked in a mocking voice.

"No, the King and half the Champions were at the banquet. The Princess, Knight and the other Champions were not. We placed troops in both locations." He took a deep breath in. "The soldiers stationed at the pavilions did not face much opposition until the Rito arrived, we had almost taken the King when he came in, bomb arrows blazing. The Champions... dissolved that front quickly after."

"We ambushed the Princess, Knight and the Gerudo on one of the bridges in between the pavilions and facilities for the guards. The Princess and Gerudo disappeared quickly, the Knight fought back with other knights... but it was strange. The Knight did not wear blue like the Champions or armor like the guards... he wore white, like the Princess."

The prophet then slammed his hand on the table. "What?!"

"Why're you so upset by that? Doesn't it just mean he's getting a bit big for his britches?" Master Kohga seemed confused, odd for him being the Yiga leader.

"No!" The prophet forced himself upwards, walking towards his harbinger. "Do you understand what has happened, or must you see it with your own eyes?!"

Kohga and Sooga rose from the table to walk over to the harbinger. "A visual might be nice, yeah." The master mumbled, causing the prophet to growl again.

"Show me this, which has caused the chosen one's rank to rise."

The corrupted device began to sputter and growl like the one who used it, then Malice arose to form a playback: Link and Zelda's wedding.

"And do you, Zelda, Princess of Hyrule, before the eyes of these witnesses and those of the Goddess Hylia," Urbosa's voice was heard. "take this man as your husband, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health, for better or worse, as long as you both shall live?"

The audience of three gasped as a blush creeped up into Zelda's veiled face as she nodded. "I do."

Urbosa smiled on the playback. "Then by the power invested in me by the Goddess Hylia and the Triforce, I now pronounce you, no longer as princess and knight, but as husband and wife! You may seal this declaration with a kiss!

Link and Zelda tenderly shared their first kiss as husband and wife on screen with joyful tears slipping down their faces, Urbosa let lightning dance around the site as she declared "I now proclaim this bond to be Hylia-ordained! Let no force on Hyrule ever sever it!" Everyone else attending the wedding, after hearing the declaration and seeing the kiss, cried "To the Prince and Princess!"

The prophet angrily waved away the vision of the past, furious.

Master Kohga stomped his foot on the ground. "Hey... I wasn't done watching that!"

"You can binge watch the Royal Wedding as long as you like when I am not around!" He yelled, sitting back down in his chair before putting his face in one hand and sighing. "I will now ask you this, and I want you to think very hard about it." He took a deep breath and spoke very slowly. "The hero married the princess. What happens next?"

"Uhhh..." Kohga scratched his mask. "The kingdom gets a scruffian as a king?"

The prophet's eyes grew wide. "Yes... that too. What else?"

"Uhh... I don't know?"

He sighed in annoyance. "Just when I thought you might come up with it yourself..." He turned to the soldiers. "You two!"

"Yes?"

"Did either of you happen to catch a glimpse of Princess Zelda?"

"The Knight and the Champions were quite secretive of her figure, but I caught a good enough glimpse to see what she was wearing, if that pleases you."

"What was she wearing? Was it..." He clenched his fists at the thought. "...white perhaps?"

"Yes, prophet, it was. A very long, pure white dress decorated only with small gold crests and markings of the Triforce at the bottom hem and edge of the sleeves, which went about halfway down her arm before draping behind, much like the dress she wore at the Champions' Ceremony. Unfortunately, I cannot tell you much more, as I only saw her back."

Ganon's prophet cried out in frustration. "Time runs short! All because of that stupid knight!"

Sooga stepped backwards in realization. "A woman of the Royal Family is only to wear white in public wh-" He gasped.

"Ah. Someone realizes it!"

"Master! The princess is pregnant with the child of the knight!"

"Whaa?" Master Kohga exclaimed.

The prophet groaned. "You know, pregnant: expecting, anticipating, in a family way, gravid, with child, enceinte, stop me when you hear one you like."

"I know what pregnant means!" Master Kohga yelled before starting to throw a temper tantrum. "No! That puts a damper in the plans!"

"Now that we're back on the same page." The prophet slammed his mysterious device down onto the table. "We cannot allow that princess to give birth. The child growing within her carries the blood of the goddess and the hero, if it turns out to be female..."

"Our hope for resurrecting Ganon is lost." Sooga finished.

"Wait. Someone run me through this. Why's that kid going to ruin everything? I know it'll just make it harder, but ruin everything?"

"If Zelda gives birth to a daughter, another Zelda, then there will be two people on this planet with the sealing power. Even if she delivers a son, that child still carries the royal genetics and the blood of the hero. The child will have the ability to wield the Sword That Seals The Darkness! If it's female, it will have both Zelda and Link's divine powers!" He gripped Kohga's collar. "That child will ruin everything if it's a girl! We can't guarantee it will be a boy, so we have to make sure it's never born!" He released Kohga and picked up his device again. "Perhaps you need another visual..." He dragged Kohga up to the harbinger. "Show me the future if Zelda births a son."

The Malice rose once again, showing a much more confident Zelda and Link, both in their mid-20s. Link held a little boy of about eight years old in his arms.

"But I want to go with you, Daddy! I wanna help you and Mommy seal the darkness away!" The little boy squealed. He had his mother's hair and green eyes, but otherwise looked like his father.

"Son, you can't. This is Mommy and Daddy's battle. You need to stay here with Granddad and Auntie Sydnei, okay?"

"But..."

"Your father said no." Zelda's voice was heard. "That's final." She picked up her son, ruffling his hair. "We don't want anything to happen to our little boy..." She kissed his forehead, handing him over to a now eighteen-year-old Sydnei, the same age Link was when he married Zelda.

"You and Daddy are coming back, right?"

"We'll do our best, but we cannot promise." Tears began to leak from her eyes. "Take care of him, Sydnei."

Sydnei began to cry as well. "I will... you two stay as safe as possible, ya hear?"

They nodded and ran out the door, saddling up two horses and rushing out to Central Hyrule, where the Divine Beasts were already firing alongside a small number of liberated Guardians against the rest of the corrupted Guardians and Ganon's forces.

"Keep your head in the game, Zelda! We've got everything we need."

She nodded once and they rushed into the Castle. Though it did not show what went on inside, the four Beasts fired and Zelda's holy light shone, sealing Ganon away.

The two walked out, hand in hand, both dirty but otherwise unharmed. Link had a few wounds Zelda was tending to, but that was the worst of it.

The Divine Beast pilots came down and hugged them, cheering that Hyrule was free once more.

"You see the outcome there? You see the age of the boy? If she delivers a son, we will have about nine years to try and alter this path."

"You know, even though we're supposed to hate him, that kid's kinda cute." Kohga muttered.

"Of course he's 'cute,' he's a blond little boy!" He turned back to the harbinger. "Now, show me the future should Zelda birth a daughter."

Link and Zelda, this time in their early twenties, were already racing towards Calamity Ganon in the Castle, Zelda holding a girl of about five or six in her arms. The child looked like her mother aside from the fact that she had blue eyes and a lot of Link's features.

"Now what's Daddy going to do?" Link asked the small child.

"Protect me and Mommy from the big bad monster and beat him up."

"That's right. Now, what are you and Mommy going to do?"

Zelda pointed to the back of her and her daughter's right hands to remind her.

"We're going to use our powers to make him shoo! Shoo shoo, Ganon!"

"Din's Dragon, you're precious!" Link told her. "How'd we'd ever deserve you?"

Zelda chuckled and ruffled the younger Zelda's hair, then looked up and gasped, pointing so her husband could use his shield. "Focus, Link! Calamity incoming!"

The three engaged in battle with the forces of darkness with the Divine Beasts watching their backs, Link's daughter even taking out a few monsters by herself with a bow. When the final moments of battle came, both Zeldas raised their right hands and the golden light devoured Ganon.

The light from the vision nearly blinded the onlookers, they all swiped at it to get rid of the glow.

"Enough with the light!" Master Kohga yelled. "We get it!"

When the vision went away and all had blinked the holy light from their eyes, the prophet sat back down. "That child is years younger than the other, a much smaller window, and if Zelda has a girl, the security detail on all three of them will ensure we can't get our hands on any of them. Do you see now why we cannot allow the Princess to birth this child? Why it will ruin everything?"

"Yeah. Kid will have skill like its dad and divinity like its mom. I get it."

"Then you see that our time runs out? We must focus on two things: assassinating Princess Zelda, or at least making sure her kid dies inside her, and reviving Calamity Ganon as quickly as possible. We have no more time to stall, she cannot be too far from labor."

After this long, drawn-out conversation, Kohga finally nodded. "I will send more troops out with this information at once."

"Finally..."

~~~~

*Back at Hyrule Castle*

"Your Majesty." The Captain of the knights that had fought with Link called out as he bowed. "The Prince sent us back to ensure you are alright."

"I am just fine, but what about my daughter? Didn't I send you to find her?"

"Yes, but that was before the Yiga attacked. She fled with Lady Urbosa, she is safe."

"Do you know where she is?"

"They headed in the direction of the First Gatehouse, Your Majesty, trying to get her to the West Passage until the all clear. Her chambers were too obvious an escape destination, but we've sent units there as well to defend it from infiltration."

"Very well. Make sure all the troops are active and amongst the castle. We must expel the Yiga from this place."

[inprogresspokemon]

#559.5 - Scraggy live in small groups, walking around with a lazy, delinquent attitude. Whenever someone makes eye contact, Scraggy will rush to headbutt them with their thick skull. Their loose skin - used to reduce damage by defensively pulling the elastic skin up to their neck - is a point of pride; the saggier the skin, the more respect they garner. As Scraggy age, they form tight bonds with the other members of their gang. Together they beat up anything that enters their territory. While rude, they take good care of their friends and family.

Named: Scraggy - Scruffian - Scrafty

can you give us lore for the ocs you just posted please 🥺🥺 they look so interesting

The ocs in question

So first you have the scruffian. He’s a wily trickster and he’ll scam you out of the shirt on your back. He’s commonly found at the local tavern, not because the innkeeper likes him but because it’s more hassle than it’s worth to kick him out. He lives on the streets as an orphan, and supposedly he’s a human under a curse, but rumors disagree whether he was cursed for stealing or left to fend because of the curse.

Next is father Sinclear (pronounced Sinclair). He’s a high ranking holy man who performs miracles of divination. He’s also a false prophet. He has eyes and ears in many places. He’s obsessed with image, appearance, and artifice.

Then there’s Mrs. Marigold Rigby. She’s been a widow for as long as anyone can remember. In fact, no one can remember her as anything but old, widowed, and wearing mourning clothes. Most observe her as nice, if mournfully detached. She seems to have a sixth sense for knowing who’s lost a parent or grandparent, and she is a whole different, comforting presence when she’s with them.

The next one is Myriad. That’s not their name. No one knows their name. Whenever someone asks after them, one’s told “they go by such a myriad of names and pronouns, we just call them Myriad.” They live in the bog, and are extremely fond of daggers. Often they show up at the tavern, stay for the stories, and don’t pay for anything. They track mud everywhere and they don’t seem to take anything seriously. They’re known for getting into trouble with the scruffian. Somehow they lost part of one of their horns.

Then you have Sad Cat Pete. He hates when you call him that. He’s a destitute poet, a hopeless romantic, a misunderstood genius. His poetry is shit, but he’s convinced that he’ll make a living in poetry. He’s actually quite good at woodworking, but he’s too pretentious to learn trade.

All of them are near the same tavern

[budgiebunch]

Time to molt! All four budgies are molting right now, which means they are little scruffians. The dust buster is working overtime! It may be due to the house being warm during winter or our unusually warm December. Tweety is on the left and Will is on the right.

(Image shows a blue and green pair of budgies sitting side by side)

[opulentmutts]

Who is that gorgeous scruffian behind me? Oh it's my fabulous portrait by Sally Muir 👀😍 Love it We got this done years ago at The Brighton Dog Show. It was a 15 minute sitting (I was too excited though, had ants in my pants) It was my first professional portrait and Sally was so lovely 💚🥰 Happy memories #throwbackthursday https://ift.tt/324sRai

[tylerstitties]

I’m scared to have kids because one day those lil scruffians will know more than me about computers, and I Can’t Have That. If I can’t operate the neural interface on the toaster, then there just won’t be any toast in my house. It’s as simple as that.
