Kicking my feet and looking silly while I my ship is actively sinking in the barnsmore gap so I can see a pretty girl (the dawn machine)

tell her to get her silly ass to london before another sun claims her turf 👁‼‼‼‼‼ ok the eye emoji was a misclick but fuck it sure. me casting my judging eye on the dawn machine for forcing me to deal with a bunch of boring pirates and monks because she didn't show up to the faction recruitment event.

30. Who do they most regret meeting? 31. Who are they the most glad to have met?

Crow Melusine: Poor Edward, their child

Carver: the Vake, the Vake

Ada: Mr Wines (because it's annoying), the Vake

Mr Silk: Mr Veils (because it's annoying), they don't feel positively about anyone but themselves <3

Ash doesn't have enough development to answer.

6. Do they consider laws flexible, or immovable?

oh, definitely flexible. both law and Law may be bypassed if they have cause.

7. What triggers nostalgia for them, most often? Do they enjoy that feeling?

hmm. i think certain scents can make them nostalgic for the surface - fresh bread, the smell of farm animals. but they know they can never go back, nor do they really have anything to go back *to* after the circumstances that necessitated their flight to the Neath, so they feel... mostly uncomfortable with those feelings.

27. What causes them to feel dread?

worry for their children. feeling like they're not in control of their own life. thinking too hard about a future with Mr Fires.

F. What do you feel when you think of your OC (pride, excitement, frustration, etc)?

i like having fun. :)

i should make a pinned post linking to my oc profiles and stuff at some point but, sadly, that would require me to write a pinned post

11, 15, and 22 for cm for the ask game!!!

11. How do they cope with confusion (seek clarification, pretend they understand, etc)?

depends a bit on the context and who they're speaking with, etc, but crow melusine has some insecurities about not being formally educated, so if it's something they suspect they "should" already know, they'd rather just pay attention and try to understand than ask for an explanation.

15. How do they speak? Is what they say usually thought of on the spot, or do they rehearse it in their mind first?

they're not too worried about their own speech, i would say. they already don't *look* that respectable, and they've never quite shaken their accent (though it's not entirely distinctly slovene, since they moved around a lot and spoke multiple different languages before moving to the neath), so they're always a little marked as a foreigner. so there's not much point in putting on airs for people who would look down on them regardless.

that said, they can certainly be diplomatic or pleasing when it comes to wrangling powerful and dangerous people if they want to. after all, the reason they originally fled to the Neath was because they helped run a ponzi scheme a little *too* well, so they gained some dangerous enemies when the scheme turned sour.

22. How does jealousy manifest itself in them (they become possessive, they become aloof, etc)?

........................................................it's never really happened before, so they might not realize that's what it is when it does. when they do figure it out, they would probably try to ignore and hide it. emotional vulnerability is too embarrassing...!

If this happens I'll eat my hat, ok like this would never happen on such a short time limit RIGHT? but what if the roof is unstable and light is gonna be a problem

They teased the full sunlight thing at the garden.

I really think it's unlikely but all bets are off at this point!

I HAVE TO EAT MY DAMN HAT AKSHSLSHDKDHF

so-called white chess players when the Law comes home to roost

the comedic concept of a human parent to space bat babbies is the inevitably that at some point the children will be Much Larger than the human parent lmao

Child age space bat baby as tall as its parent still trying to hide behind them is a very amusing thought

Babies still trying to cuddle, you have to make them believe they still fit

like one of those dogs that dont realize they arent puppy sized

been experimenting with modifying a crochet pattern to make quick little mini-masters (no offense to the official pages pattern, i just like tiny projects i can knock out in a day). not really there yet, but these are the scrap yarn prototypes so far. might end up ditching the feet, the hazmat suit aesthetic of the yellow one is kind of breaking me. mr pesticides-looking ass.

ada and silks are kind of lagging around pre-endgame because i got choice paralysis about which tracklayer factions to have them support, so they're both like. at ealing still. not really leveled any advance stats. maybe when tracklayer city comes out. 💀
