This is Patsy. The vet asked what colour(s) she was before her first appointment, and all I could think to say was, "most of them?"
ANOTHER SMOKE TORTOISESHELL HAS HIT THE INBOX!!!!! Patsy is such a darling black smoke tortoiseshell with low white! I absolutely adore looking at these cats, the mixture of smoke ghost patterning and cameo tortoiseshell stripes is just, MWAH chefs kiss.
Hello, hello~! I'm very happy to finally share my translations for the Tsuki Kagetsu pamphlet~
Tsuki Kagetsu is onmyouji-themed, and its world is filled with mysterious forces, spirits, and the people who keep it in control.
It has pretty dark undertones too, which is really enjoyable and offers a lot of food for thought in terms of theories and headcanons!
Lore-wise, it is implied to be very political, but aside from bits and pieces shown through the characters' lores, it doesn't dive too deep into it. (Although I wish it did LMAO)
Either way, it establishes a strong lore while still leaving some stuff up to interpretation so fans can have fun with it~!
Like with every other AGF theme, I am once again saying that I wish to see it adapted on stage someday, too!
(I have not given up on Picatrix stage yet...!😂)
Thank you to Rakuen for helping me get my copy~!
Notes, and masterpost under the cut, enjoy~!
A few notes:
A bit of a trigger warning:
There are multiple mentions of death, near-death experiences, and abuse (specifically child abuse) in the lore, so please be mindful as you read.
The characters have two sets of quotes, one from the picture uploaded on Twitter, and then there's the quote in the pamphlet.
I've labeled them "Pictured Quote (Twitter Quote)" and "Pamphlet Quote" respectively, to avoid confusion.
All character pictures and designs are property of TsukiPro and the respective artists.
I do not claim ownership of them whatsoever. I only did the translations.
If any of the links are wonky (not working or linking to the wrong file), please don't hesitate to send me an ask/DM so I can update!
※ Please don’t re-post and re-translate these without permission!!!
If you enjoyed this, please consider buying me a ko-fi here to support my work! It’ll be a really big help. (o^▽^o)
I am also open for comms if anyone's interested. Thank you!
Solid but fluid: New materials reconfigure their entire crystal structure in response to humidity
Most solid materials we rely on, from steel, to plastics and ceramics, are designed to have specific properties. Whether a material is soft and flexible, or stiff and tough depends on how molecules within the material are organized. That stability is useful, but it comes at a cost: once made, these materials' properties are fixed, and they rarely adapt to their environment.
A new study published in the journal Matter and led by researchers at the Advanced Science Research Center (ASRC) at the CUNY Graduate Center challenges that assumption, demonstrating solid materials that can reversibly reorganize their internal structure and dramatically change their properties in response to small environmental cues such as humidity.
Fave Beautiful 2D Idols with insane androgynous vocals
AI Mikaze (Uta no Prince-sama's Quartet Night) - A human-made robot idol designed for singing. His voice is as angelic as his appearance. Felt more human the more he learn about humanity.
Rikka Sera (TsukiPro The Animation's Solids) - At first it make you confused why this harmless guy is grouped with rowdy drunkards and then you hear him sing with high register. Fierce, competitive and weaponize his beauty confidently.
Rio Minase (Holostars UPROAR) - A ghost vtuber from male branch of Hololive Production that produce idol vtubers meaning they don't only stream games, singing is a major requirement in choosing their talents. Its enough reason to tell you he's good if he can sing Utapri's Tsukiakari no Dearest Ai part.
