I’ll never forget the look on that Nephrite’s face when you pulled her out of the cockpit!
Pearl clearly put a whole bunch of points into the vehicles skill so now she can drive, pilot, fly, and operate (and hijack and reverse engineer!) anything. It’s one of my favourite things.
Winter is really going to separate the Pokémon Masters from the Pokémon Trainers
Someone obviously doesn’t live in a place where summer is regularly +110°
I can’t wait to go Pokemon hunting in -45°C for the next 6 months.
pokemon hunting in winter is better than pokemon hunting in summer because I’m all for wearing 87 layers of cloths but I could be naked in the summer and still be super hot.
These tweets are part of a long thread mainly directed towards the Steven Universe fandom, but I think they’re relevant to many fandoms. I chose these two tweets in particular because they hit on a major reason for why so many characters appear on this blog: their flaws.
Now I’m not sure how many of you are writers or at least interested in writing, but for those of you who are (such as myself), you would know that well-developed characters are supposed to have flaws. Flaws allow characters to become three-dimensional, realistic beings that the audience can relate to. However, as seen on this blog many times, whenever a character does have flaws, they’re hated because of those same traits. But when a character doesn’t have flaws (or they don’t have enough flaws), then those characters are hated because they’re Mary Sues/Gary Stus, boring, etc.
Not only do flaws aid in character development, but they can also help to move the story along by providing conflict. Again, for those of you who are writers or are interested in writing, you would know that stories need some type of conflict to 1) engage the audience and 2) move the story along. One potential source of conflict can be *drum roll* character flaws! Having a character do something “problematic” or believing in something “problematic” can be the driving force behind a story. Most people would easily become bored with a story if everything was perfect 95% of the time and the build-up/conflict only occurred during the last 5%.
If you can’t handle the fact that well-developed, three-dimensional characters are flawed, if you can’t handle the fact that those flaws can be the reason for why the story exists in the first place, and if you can’t handle the fact that those flaws and the conflicts they cause are why you and other people are still engaged in the story after all this time, then perhaps you should move on to something else.
Aaaa he’s turning a duller color… I hope he’s alright

CHICKEN NUGGET IS A CHICKEN WING NOW BABY WE HAVE LIFTOFF!!!!!
hes’s in a bigger container than the one in the pic now but im gonna let my home boy find his way in the world after he gets used to his wings a little bit
Yeahh I’m pretty sure that his left wing is deformed. It hasn’t straightened out and his Chrysalis was a little whack
I’m worried. He flies like a dork- a little frantic and uneven, but he can still fly. I don’t have any means of keeping him though so I’m not sure what to do
Any suggestions for a handicapped yet handsome butterfly?
hi, i think chicken nugget might be a chimera! a chimera is an organism with cells from two different zygotes, usually a result of a merging of sibling zygotes during gestation. anyway this can result in organisms with both male and female cells, and in animals with sexual dimorphism like many butterflies, having a “split” like chicken nugget is common!
here’s an example of a butterfly chimera with a split:
and here is the sexual dimorphism of spicebush swallowtails, with the male on the left and the female on the right:
male spicebush swallowtails are also smaller than the female, which would account for the size difference of chicken nuggets…chicken wings
as far as flight ability and care goes, i have no clue, but congrats on your beautiful new child!!
CHICKEN WING IS BREAKING THE BINARY oh my god oh my god thank you for this info my bro is a fucking hella rad chimera non fuckig binary,, oh my god We’re nb bros I can’t believe this
He’s not a boy or a girl folks He’s chicken nugget
