#juli doodles #juli's ocs #spy ocs #grant hosking #david fairchild #MY GUYS look at my guys again are you looking #they're probably wearing some Gadgets so they can scan faces in the crowd. cause what's the fun of having spy ocs if they don't wear Gadget #but also i just wanted to draw them dancingggg. get it boys.#fun fact! grant is a really good dancer! he used to do ballroom dancing when he was young so he def has the rhythm and the charm #david is not a dancer but he's got really good control of his body so he's quick to learn and can follow if grant leads #(and of course they both enjoy it. yay)

Imagine, if you can, the surprise of a wolf-spider who, in running through the grass, should stumble over his own outgrown skeleton, so like his former self in all its details that he could scarcely fail to recognize it as his own; for even the transparent cornea of the eye is a part of this outer skeleton and is shed with it, as well as the jaws, sensitive spines, and hairs.

In the early 20th century, botanist David Fairchild traveled the world and brought plants back to the U.S. that we now see as thoroughly American. NPR talks with the author of a book on Fairchild.

All Things Considered host Ari Shapiro talked with Daniel Stone, author of The Food Explorer: The True Adventures Of A Globe-Trotting Botanist Who Transformed What America Eats, which recounts Fairchild's sometimes harrowing adventures acquiring the familiar foods we eat and plants we take for granted today.

Definitely worth a 5 minute listen.

David Fairchild – Scientist of the Day

David Fairchild, an American botanist, was born Apr. 7, 1869.

the thing with creating ocs is that at first you can be like "so these are grant and david and they're secret agents and they kiss and stuff 👍🏼", but then when you actually start to get to know them better (because developing a character is just like that, like meeting someone properly), then you're like "throughout the course of their partnership, grant and david have built the kind of trust and understanding that lets them communicate with even a single glance, an intimacy that, without being romantic or sexual in nature, is the sign of a deep, important relationship. Whether that relationship develops into one with a sexual or romantic component—whether david can leave behind years of don't-ask-don't-tell mentality, and whether grant is willing to wait for it—, is for them to discover as they keep building on that deep and powerful bond they've stumbled upon." AND THEN when you know them like the palm of your hand you're probably like "so these are grant and david and they're secret agents and they kiss and stuff 👍🏼"

#juli's ocs #spy ocs #grant hosking #david fairchild #specifics aside this IS how building characters work for me! i'm meeting them as we go!#they've defied me many times (like henry being aroace even if i originally said he was bisexual)#it's the beauty of developing them and making them more realized versions of themselves. reallt like meeting someone.#and for my spies i think i know them better now but there's still ways to go #so i'm somewhere inntje middle now #i know david is gay and he's NOT ashamed of it. i don't think he has a lot of internalized homophobia #as bad as his dad was he wasnt like AAA THESE GAYS. he was military so i think he was very much a dont ask dont tell guy #like im not asking you and you shouldnt tell me #so david is fine being gay whatever. once he's out of the military he's fine to admit it but he's not the type to go to a pride parade ykno #grant's completely open. his whole life has been like that. open to opportunity and discovery.#he knows he's bi but understands david's complicated mentality too #and i think it takes them a whileeee to get to a place where romance or sex can be a thing. if it does!#it feels like it will eventually but we'll let that advance organically #i love my ocssss yayyy
