Bittern at the grocery store

[sparkly-heretic]

A very elegant crime.

(edit: my partner just pointed out that maybe the bittern is going to pay, and that's a good point)

Don't worry, his disguise was flawless and he got away with his snack :)

This is now your Pokémon Partner. Whatever you would want to do in the Pokémon world, your Result goes with you.

I got a weird reverse version of this in a story critique once. I had an antagonist character named “Red Jaguar” and because of this one of my critique responses assumed that he was literally an anthro Jaguar. So I had to go back and try to explain in story that he was just a human guy who happened to have an animal name because he was an Olmec pastiche.

The confusion may have been caused by the fact that my protagonists are a sentient Dilophosaurus and a were-squid who regularly transforms between human and cephalopod. So reviewers might have assumed all my characters were anthropomorphic animals. to clear up the confusion I had to describe regular human characters in a way that would make it clear that they sometimes just have names with animal words in them.

I thought he was going to say "trans people are like microwaves: there's a lot of confusing science going on in there, but at the end of the day, we can't live without 'em." But I like this joke a lot better.

Had my suspicions but I have finally confirmed it this morning: The rival Pokémon Go team I have been beefing with, whose gym's total annihilation I have incorporated into my morning routine, is actually a group of local elementary school students

[parkchanwoohoo]

I always wondered why the Pokémon at this gym were so weak but today I left the house before the local students get picked up by the schoolbus and I saw a group of kids congregating around the gym pokestop and I was like "Oh no"

Congrats on being promoted to pokemon villain

Situation that happened in class this semester that was so funny I immediately sketched it out in my notes

[filurig]

aforementioned site did encourage me to remake some basilisk anatomy references to be more updated to how i imagine them now. and also, in turn made me rethink slightly how their whole pouch deal works and actually draw it since i hadn't yet LOL.

as i've mentioned before basilisk males have a pouch on each side for rearing their young; this is a trait universal to dactylopodinae, and a sort of "pseudo-ovovivipary"! a male's pouch is much more reduced until they've bred, after which the skin there will become more elastic and pronounced in time for when the female lays. after laying her egg, it is placed in the male's pouch(es) and during each summer she usually lays 2 eggs with a 1 month interval. the egg has a very delayed hatching time than birds, and only hatches by the time the next spring arrives. as u can see the gaga stays in the pouch for 2-3 months before it starts to grow a bit uncomfy in there and it climbs onto the father's back.

the first year is the quickest phase of a basilisk's growth rate, and they become able to walk on their own regularly at around 5-6 months (prior to that they CAN walk at 3ish, but its more like, pathetic hobbling where they often fall on their face), but at around 1 year the growth slows down substantially. i imagine that they remain covered in the silly down (the colour i think changes from pure white to more brownish after the first year though) up until around 9-10 years where they finally start to grow into their own juvenile plumage and their individual features become more pronounced.

puberty for basilisk usually occurs at a later age on average than humans (in their later teens) and also occurs more "all at once". as in, it tends to coincide with their first fully adult plumage moult (you can imagine how terribly hormonal their first spring season is...). but even then socially i imagine you're only considered a true adult after a few years post your first true "hormonal season", and body size does not completely stop growing until their 20s.

keep in mind though that males being the gaga caregiver can and is probably culturally influenced in some basilisk cultures and such and can vary in execution. for example while some cultures might encourage the male to be the sole person having "gaga climb on u" duty during their infancy, some others might encourage a more even distribution of "gaga climbing time" between the male and the female.
