You know what I love? When characters are almost unconscious, but not quite.

Slumped over, a complete ragdoll in the others’ hands, but alert enough to groan softly at different sensations, eyes hooded and glazed, just wide enough to gather a blurry image of their surroundings. Though they’re dizzy and their limbs feel like lead, they gain comfort in the others’ touch, unconsciously leaning into them, eyelids fluttering in hazy relief at the soothing, concerned gestures.

I love being an adult because you know what actually happens when you run your car into a curb and scratch up the bumper?

Nothing. You get it fixed, or you don’t. Whatevs.

You know what actually happens when you are depressed or sick or on your period and don’t cook dinner?

Nothing. You still get to eat something, nobody scolds you, it doesn’t have any real bearing on your future success, and you don’t get soft shunned for a week by your family.

You know what actually happens when you break stuff, forget stuff, get sick, fall asleep, are rude, miss a flight, don’t know how to do XYZ thing on fixing cars or canning food or whatever, lose things, get lost because you can’t read a map and forgot to charge your phone, buy the wrong groceries, plant the wrong plants, not make your bed, make your bed wrong, jump on your bed, sleep on your bed, eat crackers in your bed, have emotions literally anywhere?

Nothing.

Nothing happens.

No one is mad.

No one can hurt you, and if they do there are laws saying they can’t and that it’s an actual crime with legal consequences.

All there are are outcomes and different paths and different problems and different situations and you just bumble your way forward into dealing with those and that’s it. That’s the whole thing. It’s not the wrong choice, having problems isn’t indicative of your inherent badness or inadequacy or lack of applying yourself. It’s just life, and it’s happening to literally everyone.

I’m not even kidding.

You just do stuff and nothing bad happens. Walk around existing? Nothing bad will happen. Wild.

You can cry. In public. And the most likely outcome is not that you will get taken away to receive the beating of your lifetime, it is that people will mostly ignore you and some will be kinder to you. 🤯

sometimes I think about how red is the first color in the visible light spectrum to be absorbed in ocean water

and how many deep-sea creatures evolved to be red as a stealth adaptation, making them near invisible when there’s little to no light present

and it makes me think. If there’s never any visible light present in these animals’ lifetimes, if no ROV shines a little flashlight in depths that would otherwise not have light, would these animals ever get the opportunity to actually be red? that might be a stupid question.

imagine being a little deep sea creature and having no idea you’re red until something comes along and shines a light on you except you still wouldn’t be able to tell because you’re probably colorblind. anyway. I don’t know where I was going with this post

[sabertoothwalrus]

Is color relative? Or inherent? Or both???

Like is color physiological and determined by the shape of whatever pigment cells that will always absorb certain wavelengths and reflect others?

or is color meaningless if there’s no light to absorb and reflect?

Is it completely relative because the way we percieve color is subjective, how even within our own species there are so many different kinds of ways people can observe color?

makes you think

Red light doesn’t make it to the deep ocean from the sun, but that doesn’t mean red light doesn’t exist at that depth!

The stomiidae, which include the viperfish, dragonfish, and loosejaws, are one example of a deep sea animal that evolved to perceive and produce red light because it isn’t naturally present in their environment and most other organisms never hit on that adaptation. In most of this group, tiny red lights can be switched on and off throughout their skin to communicate with their own kind in secret. More threateningly, some of them have high-powered “floodlights” of pure red just beneath their eyes; almost no other deep sea fish emit actual BEAMS of light to illuminate what they’re looking at because that’d make them a shining beacon to every larger predator in the area, but since it’s red, the only risk ends up coming from their fellow red-light hunters and those remain just uncommon enough to be worth the chance. In many members of this group, most of all the loosejaws (hence the name), almost the entire skull can naturally detach from the rest of the body on specialized stalks at lightning speed so that their long, hooked jaws can grab prey in an instant, almost the same exact motion as the arm of a preying mantis:

If you were a little fish in this scenario you would see absolutely nothing but darkness around you and possibly feel pretty safe, because maybe you’ve evolved to blend in perfectly with the surrounding void and you can’t see any blue or yellow or green lights coming to get you. You have no idea that there’s been a spotlight right on you all along until its owner’s face flies off to impale you and shove you whole into its giant throat all in less than half of a second :)

someone explain why deep sea creatures are so fucking scary like is there a logical reason was god like hey that’s deep and dark so I shall create absolutely terrifying creatures who will haunt humans in their dreams

[bogleech]

Think about the predators up here on land; bigger eyes, longer teeth and bigger mouths. We know these things indicate something that can harm us, or stalk us in the dark. Now you multiply that the farther you go down the ocean. If it’s darker, then they need bigger eyes. If it’s a LOT darker, then their eyes need more and more specialized anatomy nothing could ever possibly need up here in the sun, so by necessity they do not have the kind of eyes we know:

And food is so far between, the predators need even longer teeth, to make sure those rare meals they encounter really can’t escape:

And because it’s dark AND food is scarce, they need big, expandable jaws and bodies that are almost all stomach, to guarantee they can take advantage of more meals and don’t have too much more body to have to nourish:

Chinomiko's Q&A via IG stories:

I'm so glad to hear he's the one less changed 🤗 that means the character essence I fell in love with is still there <3 they already did SO MUCH by designing his adult version super loyal to the adolescent one. So far, so good.

Also, yeah, as we know, there won't be more than four episodes for Lysander. i kinda hope it was like the initial four episodes and then based on acceptance they released more hahah but no

And yes! I was right. It will begin with Campus Life starting plot. They'll pick up where everything went wrong basically.

So the four year time-skip/break up remains. I wonder if they'll keep what canonically happened those four years (based on CL), like... both of Lysander's parents death. Oh dear. I'm not ready to face that again x.x

And yes, nothing changes about the AP system, idk why anyone would think otherwise since the whole point of Beemov for doing this is profit 😂

About the other character's thing, hopefully they can still show us some interaction with other characters because I really was looking foward to see Castiel reunite with his best friend :(

But yay, new outfits and illus!

[tetrakys]

Chino shared a few (non-spoilery) information on the new MCL season with the old crushes, and specifically Lys, on instagram. Excluding all the "I can't answer this question" here is a recap of the interesting bits that were mentioned:

- Lys' personality hasn't changed, he's the least changed character among all.

- The game is the Canon continuation of Lysander's route. It picks up right at the beginning of University Life after the ending of High School Life.

- Same thing for Armin and Kentin, their stories have already been drafted but will only be worked on and released if Lys' makes enough money. (So, whatever happens, even if we never see them, Armin and Kentin's routes also have canon happy endings.)

- The AP system remains the same as the usual MCL AP system. And each episode will have its own outfit and illustrations just like usual.

- Despite the story taking place in the University Life timeline, it will focus mostly on romancing Lys, with little time spent on secondary characters end events.

- Only one little spoiler: there's going to be no love rival YAY!!

Best new ever!! I was a little stressed about this but now I am reassured! I can’t wait to play it 😭💞

[pinkshelfgoods]

FARM BACKGROUNDS FOR ALTERNATIVE LIFE

Or a sneak peak of Lysander's place :')

Beemov shared Lys' bedroom through IG and I'm LIVING for it

It's very sober and yet so elegant. Never not victorian style 💕 And the bed looks so comfy 🥺 i can also see some books lying around, yup, this is my husband's chambers

What else can u spot? :)

Chino shared the living room too, and is that a tiny goat I see there?? 🥺

The hat on the wall-

I wonder if we'll get to see him with his cowboy hat on, I'll dieeee

Also, the notebook™ is back. I believe is that one on the couch. He's writing poetry again and no one can tell me otherwise.

I srsly can't wait to live my farm life with bae, after all this time i can say is even more beautiful that I ever imagined.
