☾ ■ ♦ and Emma Perkins for the ask game!
☾ - sleep headcanon spreads tf out. definitely a bed hog. falls asleep in very weird positions.
■ - Bedroom/house/living quarters headcanon lives in a shitty apartment. she can’t really afford much on a barista’s salary. doesn’t have a lot of furniture, just takes what she can get. when she has a little bit of money to spare, it usually goes towards plants. speaking of which…
♦ - quirks/hobbies headcanon she does like plants, not just weed. took her a while to learn how not to kill her plants, but she got there. she definitely uses witchwood soil for potting and such.
saw a post that claims that STEM smart people are smarter than humanities smart people because “any math student who speaks english can flip through an english book and understand it, but i’d like to see an english student do college math.” i have to say 1. holy disingenuous comparison batman, and 2. as someone who ta’d the english side of an english/biology fusion class, no the fuck they cannot. forget a collegiate level, we were struggling to teach these STEM major upperclassmen how to identify what’s on the page and articulate the themes on a high school level. the course texts were two YA novels and a handful of short stories. meanwhile all the humanities students were chugging through the biochemistry at what my colleague reported was an extremely respectable level. turns out that understanding what you’re reading is a skill just like any other, AND one with transferable applications

this is how spending a really fun day with your friends feels like
💞 for paulkins for that ask game
💕 How did they both realize “oh wait, this is actually love”? answering for a universe where they don’t have to flee the apocalypse lol paul realises it pretty quickly, on their first date. he’d been infatuated with her for a while at that point, but spending one-on-one time with her kinda confirms it for him. he’s in love with her. maybe that’s too early, but in his defense he’d known her for a while before. for emma, it happens on one of their first dates but not the first one, not long after it happens for him. paul probably says something so ridiculously dorky, and she rolls her eyes with nothing but fondness and thinks something like “god i love this dumbass”. she stays in denial about it for a while though, commitment issues n all that.
“Are you trying to tell this story for yourself, or for other people?”
Fiddling with one of her belts, Quinn frowns. “Other people, right? That’s kind of the point of the Carer Van, helping out the people of the Gladlands how we can?”
“You know that you can help people other ways,” Poppy says, but Quinn’s already shaking her head.
“Yeah, but with this, it’s- if I tell people about it, I can prove that no matter what happens, it can’t keep you down, you know? Sure, you might be the only person to resort to cannibalism, and you might eat the man that you love even after he begged you not to, but that doesn’t mean it’s over for you!” Quinn knows that her eyes have gone wide, nails digging into her biceps where she holds onto her own arms to keep her steady, and she can’t bring herself to look at Poppy and see whatever expression she might have as she watches. “It’s hopeful, right?”
There’s a pause, and all Quinn can hear is how loud her breathing’s gotten. “Darling, I think you’re just trying to convince yourself.”
day 12 of reset january!
forced immortality is a fun trope. unappreciated. someone/something wants you to remain so it makes you. it will not let you die
blood work? i sure hope it does
unleashing a swarm of opposite locusts that build buildings and plant crops
Aren't they called pikmin

the battat subplot:
In other news, there's a polar vortex that's supposed to hit this weekend and I hope these fucking idiots are ready to take cold damage while getting yelled at by Minnesotans that eat sub-zero temperatures for breakfast.
It's funny you should mention that:
I think gatekeeping art is such a funny thing like. "Oh so this doodle I just made is art" yes next question. "So video games are art?" yes????? Bitch your essay you wrote on that book you didn't read in English class when you were 10 is art. Painting a fence is art. 2 sentence shitpost on Tumblr is art. Get on my level.
