NOCTUA used CHATTER! Enemy became confused! ☽◯☾

[singingstoriesinthevoid-archive]

So for streamlining's sake, I think I'm going to start the process of moving my tumblring over to @noctuafoxglove fulltime. This blog has been with me for over ten years, but unless I can find a way around the problem (desktop Tumblr has completely stopped acknowledging any login emails for this account, and I've not been able to find any solution to this, either on Tumblr itself or searching elsewhere), there's a decent chance I might find myself locked out of this account entirely eventually. So I'm going to beat it to the punch.

This blog will stay up as an archive, as there's a loooot of history here. But for anyone still interested in following my new posts, head over to @noctuafoxglove.

So I can't access this account on desktop anymore. Since I'm worried that I might lose access to Tumblr entirely should my mobile app get knocked off, I'm preemptively making a backup account to use on desktop and might transfer to it fulltime, and leave this one up as a legacy account. If a @noctuafoxglove follows you, it's just me.

Tumblr may be a shitshow, but it's my shitshow, dammit.

It saw you the moment you entered the room, silvery eyes flashing bright in the gloom.

It’s actually really funny how many cultures have fox spirits and how many mostly consider them Complete Assholes, whether actively malicious or just dickheads that trick people

You’ve got the Kitsune that can be anywhere from incomprehensibly evil and powerful to doting mothers and good wives, 

You’ve got the Huli Jing in China which were believed to be entirely female and needed male energy to survive, and did so by corrupting high-level politicians- and the Jiuweihu, the big girls that took to leading souls away from Dharma,

You’ve got the Gumiho in Korea, who just straight up eat people’s livers or steal their life force,

In Scandinavia, specifically Finland, fox spirits were believed to be the cause of Aurora Borealis, revontulet, the “fox fire”, as well as just usually messing with people, and then also the Brunnmigi for the Norse which poisoned water because fuck you,

The Celts also attributed them to be wily little bastards that existed to make fools of hunters and apparently that’s where the word “Shenanigan” came from, originally being sionnachuighim, “I play the fox” in irish gaelic,

In Europe you’ve got Reynard the asshole baron, 

and from what I’ve seen a lot of native american tribes also just consider them dicks on the level of coyotes 

it’s like every human that sees one of these

is just like “wow, what an asshole”, it’s great

honestly there’s nothing that can compare to creating OCs and imagining scenarios with them with a person you trust. i don’t even mean in an shipping sense, either – just you and your friends making up people that also friends and imagining them in ridiculous, hilarious, adorable, angsty situations. like holy shit the knowledge that they are enjoying themselves with what you create and you’re enjoying yourself with what they create and you’re both just having the time of your fucking lives playing barbie with your own creations, safe in the knowledge that they aren’t fucking judging you or thinking ill of you for the silly little scenarios you’re imagining, no matter how cringe they might be. no cringe zone. just friendship.

it’s pure, simple bliss y’all

is it even a cartoon for kids?

I’ve only seen this show through clips and I have found each clip aggressively relatable.

this episode is about gumball and a hotdog man who keep running into each other in the mens restroom at school and having such an awkward relationship that it physically hurts them both.

Mt. St. Helens

I’ll have limited copies of this in print at VanCAF17 this weekend, come see me at table D-11! 

[geniusbee]

I hadn’t even realized that it’s the anniversary of the eruption today (May 18, 1980) - I think Mt St Helens herself possessed me to make this in a hurry.
