i wonder who names the trill symbionts.

their natural form of communication when unjoined is electrical, not a syllabic language or a sound-based language at all. at first i thought they might be given names by the trill who tend the symbiont pools once they're ready for joining... but wouldn't it be lovely if it were the first host?

i think a lot about how the first joining must be an incredible experience, unique from the others because the symbiont has no humanoid memories, nothing that would be familiar to the first host—and unlike with subsequent hosts, the symbiont also doesn't know how to be joined yet. they're learning the whole thing together, two sentient beings who are not like each other but are now inseparably part of each other.

and what else would the host's first question be except who are you?

and the answer is unmistakable, but also untranslatable. i assume the symbiont has a sense of identity pre-joining, but they've never identified themselves aloud before. they only learn about spoken language after they're joined.

maybe the naming is a rite of passage for the first host, proof that the joining is complete—that the host understands the true essence of the symbiont enough to give them a name, that the symbiont understands what that means enough to agree, and all together it's a gift that will stay with the symbiont for centuries.

If dire wolves are basically just bigger wolves, does that mean giants are actually dire humans?

actually humans are dire gnomes

sorry this took me over a WEEK to answer. I got sick and it was a bad time.

I think the Welsey becoming the Traveler story line was very good, actually. And I'm glad there was a little call back to it in PIC.

I think he and Kes met in some way, shape, or form.

The above is a video shared by smrchildsadness on Twitter, showing a person participating in a pride parade exchanging a pride flag with a person standing on his (am using his pronoun based on the TikToks/Tweets of what happened) doorway who had a Portuguese flag. There are sounds of cheers and crying and the two people hug each other as they exchange the flags. The man at the doorway then waved kisses to the crowd within the pride parade.

The Tweet says: "NO YOU DONT UNDERSTAND HE WAS WAVING THE PORTUGUESE FLAG BECAUSE HE DIDN'T HAVE A PRIDE FLAG AND THEY TRADED FLAGS AND HE'S SO EMOTIONAL TO GET HIS OWN PRIDE FLAG I'M EMOTIONALLY RUINED"

For context, apparently they were worried that maybe he's a nationalist because he was waving the Portuguese flag and some nationalists opposing the pride march were waving that flag. But upon interacting with him, it turns out he didn't have have a pride flag and he wanted to wave *a* flag in support of the pride march. So they had an exchange and now he has his own pride flag 😭🥹.

The image above is a Tweet by kunwara_ladkaa that says "I'm crying so much right now (Image taken by Manuel Fernando Araújo/Lusa)". The image shows the same man from the pride parade crying as he hugs his new pride flag.

The above image is a Tweet by dudz_zZzz that says "ainda não parei de pensar nele," which according to Google translate from Portuguese to English is "I still haven't stopped thinking about him." The image is a drawing of the person from the pride parade, crying as he hugs his new pride flag.

Do you think cavemen ever got humiliated and had the kms urge? Like "Grug so embarrassed, Grug jump into tar pit" and then Glarg is like "Noooo everyone forget soon" and Grug is like "Grug going to do it for real"

That pose reminds me — in Gygax's original Greyhawk campaign in the 70s, the Greyhawk Construction Company worked behind the scenes blocking off unfinished areas of the dungeon map and making changes between sessions.
