Y'all ever just suddenly have the overwhelming urge to swim??? Like not actively but you just wanna,,, be in the water and have some Peace

Yes it’s called the mammalian diving response and it’s also why doing face masks and taking a shower is soothing. Our amphibian ancestors used this mechanism to slow down the heartbeat and lower body temperature so as not to waste calories while swimming (which is very calorie intensive). It makes you feel safe because predators are less likely to get you in water than on land. The fish brain is alive and well in all of us.

It’s literally activated by putting water on the face.

My amphibian ancestors gave me the instinct to dissociate in the shower for hours on end

"No matter how much he disliked me when we were in school, that was a guttering candle to the steady flame of his hatred now. His mouth curls into a smile, his eyes shine with wicked intent."

Been forgetting to post this! It's a belated birthday gift to my friend who devoured the entirety of the folk of the air series within a few days🕴✨️

Cardan from The Wicked King by @hollyblack

I don't think we talk about Cardan just enough

I don't think it will ever be enough

I'm sorry but we are talking about the BOY who got beaten by his own brother every day the same brother he had to live with because his father had kicked him out of his home because of his OTHER old brother.

The same guy who took the mortal servants back to the human world under the threat of Balakien's wrath.

And the guy who sent a dress to Jude the girl he "hated" so much that he couldn't stop thinking about her.

And the man who was forced into a role he never wanted but carried with it the best he could.

The man who hid his own tail until he didn't

The man who TURNED INTO A SNAKE just because he broke the blood crown and freed the people.

The man who joked about when people were eating meat that was his just a few hours ago.

Cardon is so much more than just the villainous love interest or Jude's pawn.

He is the true kind of Elfhame.

And he is better than any man any day.

when you download a pdf and it's called like 1328723486basdf12.pdf but then you gently rename it to what it's supposed to be. that's forming a bond with a hurt and wild mythological creature and reminding it who it is.
