Mate, you’ve got a chubby lizard on your dashboard

[markscherz]

Graced by Geckolepis typica from Madagascar. I love that they’re quite round creatures and then they have these dainty little toes. Also, their scales are full bone and both scale and skin come off when they get grabbed, which is…unpleasant. Consequently, catching these geckos for research without damaging them requires special techniques. 19th century researchers used bundles of cotton wool, but I imagine this wasn’t very effective, because cotton still has a lot of friction and the friction would pull the skin and scales off. In my (quite extensive) experience, the best technique is to carefully and quickly flick the geckos from their tree trunk or branch into an open dry plastic bag using a finger or stick.

[mrskayathefrog]

'scuse me, Mr @markscherz, does it harm the gecko for the scales to come off?

like, of course it harms them but... can they grow back? like how some lizards can drop their tails and eventually the tails grow back

[markscherz]

Not only do they grow back, but they come back so well that we cannot even tell where they have ripped off before. This is very weird, because when a lizard loses its tail, it is very obvious where it has been lost and regrown. Not so these chaps. They seek out a humid place to hide, and within a few weeks, skin and scales have started to regrow. The fact that they can do this so well is the reason a team has just sequenced their genome. I believe it is hoped that the skin regeneration tech they have built into their cells could eventually be harnessed for human skin grafts.

I've been struggling with identifying everyone in The Flight SMP so I have compiled what I could find of everyone's character skins, names and pronouns! If there are any mistakes please let me know! I'm not familiar with everyone here and so I did my best with the information I could find. The pronouns listed here are for the characters.

Please note that an * by the pronouns indicates that a character uses different pronouns from the creator. Here are the pronouns for any creator who differs from their character:

Aimsey (Any) Megiibyte (She/They) PrinceZam (Any) Watermunch (He/She) HeyGraecie (She/They) AvidMC (He/Him) InTheLittleWood (Martyn) (He/Him)

Updates: TheAmbear has joined the server and been placed into Lupi and Zam has officially transferred from Lupi to Feles. I have also added Gumi because I have just completely missed seeing her online. 😭

For blind/visually impaired folks: The instruments being used to recreate these songs are two kazoos, a plastic shopping bag, a metal colander pot, a basting brush, an empty water jug, and a thin sheet of plastic, all being played by two people in an empty parking garage for the acoustics

For deaf/HoH folks: The songs being played here are near perfect renditions of the 20th Century Fox theme, the Pirates of the Caribbean theme, and the Mission Impossible theme

[interestingmistakes]

I can't get over how he just grabs her head and shakes while she plays kazoo to make the opening trill to the mission impossible theme

The Celestial Metals Worry if TF!Pyro would be a Threat to the Sick Students - TFSMP Transcription

Transcribed from Graecie's stream: "escaping the heat by roleplaying in minecraft | The Flight SMP" [25/05/2026]

[50:56] Sausage: I don’t know, I’m just glad Pyro isn’t around for this. Noname: Why? What’s his problem? Sausage: Well, if he thinks there’s three people, or four people corrupted inside that medical wing, I wouldn’t trust him to be around there. He’ll probably end up killing all four of them. Graecie: He only did that because he was trying to protect people… Sausage: Because he thought… that Tim was corrupted, right? Graecie: No, that he had a sword and he was gonna push someone off. He cornered Shelby. Sausage: No, no, he did it because he thought he was corrupted and he wanted to protect people from this threat. Noname: [overlapping] He drew a sword on me. Graecie: [overlapping] He pulled a sword on Shelby. And Bubbles. Noname: When I was opening the chest up there, I was lockpicking and he said “Now we’re alone” and drew his blade. Graecie: Yeah… Noname: I didn’t catch it but Shelby did. And then he went for Shelby and went for Pyro, I heard it was self-defence. Sausage: No, I talked to him, he pushed him. He thought he was doing what’s right. […]

[56:55] Zam: I just worry that once word gets out people are going to try to hurt the students that are sick. Sausage: Yeah… that’s what I’m afraid of. Zam: I mean who knows what Pyro would do. Graecie: He’s not here, he’s gone off. He left without anyone. Yeah. Sausage: Oh so its official he left, Scott said he was thinking about leaving. He really did go, did he? Graecie: [overlapping]  He told me- he told me he was going to leave. He said I could go with him for a little bit if I wanted to. Zam: Really? Did he say where? Graecie: He was going to go out and fight the Corruption. Sausage: That’s so silly. Zam: By himself? Graecie: Well, he invited a couple people, said that some of them were gonna go. Maybe at least, I don’t know, and… Zam: He really has a burning passion for it, huh? Graecie: He does! He really wants to do the best for everyone. Sausage: No, he does, I agree with him. He just goes about it differently… Zam: It just worries me to what extent… Graecie: Well- I mean- Someone was gonna hurt our friends. And it was scary and there was a lot there and there were things attacking us already. I don’t think he would hurt someone who wasn’t attacking us. Zam: [overlapping] I just think given a little more time… Sausage: No, he made up his mind the second he thought he was corrupted though. He told me himself. Zam: Yeah. Sausage: He was just looking for an excuse. Zam: If Pyro finds out that the other people are corrupted… I think that he would jump to the worst conclusion as he wants to solve the problem so badly but… he also doesn’t know how to solve it the right way, so he’ll do it the only way he knows how. Right? Graecie: Yeah… Zam: I don’t know, I could be mistaken – and I hope I am. Graecie: He told me that he wanted to quarantine… in a different village, Zam: He did mention quarantining. Graecie: He just didn’t want it to come back to – he just didn’t want to bring it back to the Academy. Sausage: Yeah, and now it’s in the Academy so what do you think he would think about- Zam: Truth be told the infirmary isn’t enough of a quarantine. Graecie: No… Sausage: No… The halls are open – if it can spread it could through the hallway, Zam: Exactly. Sausage: There’s no way to stop that Zam: If it was able to spread it would have spread- or it will spread, and that’s the concerning part so I want to find a solution as quickly as possible, I just- I don’t know. [...]

[1:00:17] Zam: Graecie? Graecie: Yeah? Zam: Do you think I’m wrong about Pyro? Graecie: No! Zam: No? Are you sure? Graecie: I think everyone- everyone wants to keep everyone safe, Zam: Yeah… Graecie: And I don’t think he meant harm the way that a lot of people think- I talked to him about it! He was honest with me, and… I mean- Zam: I just believe he was a little more honest with Sausage, right? Cause- Sausage: He told me a- we spent a long time talking about it and it was… Like he’s- we’re both similar. Zam: Cause Sausage confronted him. He admitted to everything Sausage: He- He did. He pushed him over. He did push him over. Graecie: He admitted that to me too. Zam: That’s true… Okay. Graecie: He told me everything. Sausage: I just don’t think we can just rush from quarantine maybe to “Oh he’s up in this tower, let me just push him over”, yknow? Zam: He had his weapon drawn the entire time we were there. I don’t know. Sausage: And if one of us are not in our right mind and were corrupted by this thing is that what we’re gonna do to us? Like if all of a sudden the Corruption takes a hold of me and I can’t control what’s happening to me is the next step just to put a sword in my throat and kill me? Graecie: No, I would never do that… Sausage: But that’s what Pyro did. That’s what Pyro did. He felt threatened by someone who thought he was corrupted and he killed them, so whats to say that he’s not going to do that to any one of us. And that’s what I’m worried about. Zam: I just think that Tim could’ve been saved, had we been given more time. Graecie: Do we even know if It was Tim? I- I was visited by something that I thought was Terry but it wasn’t terry it was just the Corruption! And that fake Terry pulled a sword on me! He was gonna try and kill me. Zam: Do you think the Tim that died was nothing but an apparition of the Corruption? Graecie: Kind of! Because I’ve experienced those too! We never saw his body! Zam: No that’s fair. He just disappeared. Graecie: He didn’t drop everything! We don’t even know if he’s dead-! He could be in a different village! It could just be the Corruption playing tricks on our minds because that’s what it’s already been doing- Sausage: We did have doppelgangers recently, it could’ve- that could be the case. Zam: That as well. Perhaps it is all a trick, I just- I think that- Sausage: But did Pyro know that? Did he- was he sure of it either way? Like there’s no- Zam: The main concern- I believe that the main concern is somebody might get the wrong idea about the people in the infirmary and I don’t want anyone to do that. I don’t want anyone to hurt them. Graecie: No, I agree. Zam: Yeah. Sausage: And if we think about it like that like he could’ve been a doppelganger, he could’ve been the corruption manifested into some- how would- how do we know? And what are we going to do to test it? Graecie: They didn’t talk like normal, they don’t sound the same. Zam: It’s fine. It can be whatever - the most important thing is that the people in the infirmary stay okay. Sausage: Yeah, we gotta protect them. Zam: Yeah, that’s what’s most important.
