#they eat it to taste something sweet

[bigfatbreak]

Hello I love your art!!! I was reading through your changeling au and Felix mentions that fae are creatures of mirth. They literally need attention to survive. But what kind of attention? I guess I'm wondering because Adrien has been in the public eye for a while now, but has been personally neglected for even longer. What does that mean for him? Is he starving? Is he in danger of dying? Does he even know it? (I assume not given he doesn't even know he's Fae).

If he is starving / in danger of starving who is the first to realize this?

it depends on the mirth, on the attention, on what it is they seek. Without making things too complicated - I don't like to define everything into neat little boxes after all, there's fun in nuance - Felix is just explaining from his experience, the Fae he was with tended to be "entertained" by certain aspects of their playing, which was the mirth that kept them relevant. Relevancy more than anything is really what keeps their wheels greased.

In Adrien's case though, the reason he's cloying for so many names and to have so many thralls and attendants is because he SHOULD be a more social creature and has been kept woefully alone. He is kinda starving in the way a fae starves - he's relevant, but only in an image his father constructs OF him, which means it isn't REALLY him - and he has no one to play with. No friends, no lovers, and no rivals, makes a very sad fae

Sometimes I forget to appreciate how wonderful judaism is and how beautiful we are as a people. It's easy to dread the work that comes with Shabbat or the high holidays, but don't forget what you're doing it for. You're engaging in a practice that Jews have for thousands of years, and in a way you're carrying on that memory. What a gift it is to be Jewish, to be able to find family in strangers.

Tell me you have gastroparesis without telling me you have gastroparesis: I am eating salted lime jelly while cooking my soup of the week. Semi-liquids ftw.

I ran out of tags. Most of this post is in the tags and I ran out of tags. Apparently the limit is 30. Worst part is I wasn't done.

My father complaining about the pretzels I made and how they taste ambiguous (not salty or sweet) while completely ignoring the cinnamon sugar pretzels that are sitting next to the salted pretzels

CW for talking about specific food aversions and eating habits related to sensory issues/sensitivities

something i’ve only very recently figured out abt my sensory issues w food/taste is that. i think i just do not like food unless it is primarily sweet or salty. this realization happened bc i was casually mentioning how even tho i am averse to so many kinds of sauces/seasonings/marinades, two of the only kinds of flavor i like on chicken (which i eat a lot of bc i dont like most meat) are teriyaki or bbq sauce and my friend was like......... well they both have sugar. and it blew my mind i was like that makes SO much sense. so i either need sweet food or plain food with salt and if it has another taste thats mild enough i can add salt.

but like its not just being averse to spice.. if a food is primarily savory it will never Taste Good to me like i dont like the taste of garlic i dont like various herbs i have never understood why people think of those tastes as “good” i have always thought of it as flavors being too “strong” for me but i think its just a taste that my brain doesn’t register as pleasing???
