Sorcerers that ask "What's your type?" will get along with the locals.

Example, Todo will get along with Caribbeans, in spite AND IN DEFIANCE of the language barrier

Context for Dominican Republic history: There were high immigration from China/Japan in Dominican Republic in the late 18th century- early 1900's (Chinese circa. 1902)

Toji Fushiguro I'd imagine that he'd just like to farm coffee, or just like café con leche, homemade Cuban coffees/cocoa made from the cacao beans...granted he'll slightly scoff at some Chinese restaurants, but like the fish (Mero, as an example)

Shui Kong's difficult for me to headcanon, but he'd be a Dominican cigar collector, if that makes sense?

Suguru Geto would also be slightly difficult, but I see him as admiring the tropical flora and fauna and trying to immerse in Caribbean culture before he does his usual villain shenanigans.

Gojo Satoru is the easiest tourist; he'd try to eat guava pastries, hound every local bakery in the Dom. Rep, (and Haiti) and proudly will be full from the food

Yuji would be mistaken for a foreigner, locals will practice English for him, and he'd be a perfect tourist...maybe he'd find the glimpses of the seedy side of Dom. Rep, but he'll make friends.

Megumi could use his spirit animals to interact with the flora and fauna of the Caribbean; locals will try to practice English, but despite the frustrations of the language barrier, he'd enjoy the Caribbean.

Nobara would initially gripe and get sulky, But then...CARIBBEANS CONFIRMED CONFUSE HER FOR SOME EXOTIC MODEL. You see, that breaks her walls, takes selfies and shops with them.

Nanami Kento is the easiest, and slightly funny: due to the high percentage of European people emigrating to the Dominican Republic, he'd be mistaken for American and Dominickans will try to practice their English with him.

Mahito will LOVE HAITIAN VOODOO.

Jogo would find voodoo hilarious and love it because of how fire is utilized in some rituals.

i’m on year 5 of my healing journey and what i can tell you is that it is mostly a process of noticing and including yourself. when you see yourself being reactionary and projecting on someone else you say, “whatever this behavior is trying to protect me from, i want to feel it.” and then you notice the humiliation and the rejection and the terror and the shame. you see it all, and though it is messy and horrible, you include it all. and the next time you get a wave of it, you notice that too, and the next time, and the next time, you keep including it. and when you get frustrated and tired and annoyed you see your impatience and your petulance and include that too. and when you look at the shitty fucking mess that you are and you feel like nothing will ever be better or ever be fixed, you greet your pessimism and cynicism like old lovers, you bring them in too. healing has been, more than anything, a process of deep inclusion, deep integration. it has been an intimate accounting of myself. it has been allowing my shadow to exist alongside my light. so that there is no part of me that i am resistant of, or judgmental of, or angry at, or neglectful of. so that every inch of me is held with tenderness and allowance and love. i am not perfect, but i am all here.

Manuscript vs Myth: Feed

Mira Grant’s ‘Feed’ is a unique and original take on the classic Zombie story, combining witty humour with thrilling terror and a deep sense of tragedy. Set in the near future, the book follows a group of Bloggers covering the Presidential campaign in a zombie-filled America. But how far does ‘Feed’ stray from the ori

Mira Grant’s ‘Feed’ is a unique and original take on the classic Zombie story - but how close is it to the original myths? And where did the idea of the man-eating living dead come from?

Majick through ancestry.

I will say through my experience that it is terrifying how real this shit is. My mother discredited it though it affected her greatly. She let family die though her premonitions showed her how to let them live just because she found the gift demonic. Learn. I learned. I regret what she regretted. Generational curses are real just as the ancestors tapping through us is real. Don’t fight your gift. Don’t take it for granted. FInd strength. Then strengthen your will and your might. Don’t let what they fought for be in vain. They believed in their blood line. So do I. So should you.
