Astra Tsiolkovsky (she/her, close friends may use it/its) | Astrophysicist Doctoral Student | [Rotomblr/Pokemon IRL blog] | Icon and header by Amber Aria: https://www.sunset-aria.com/
Hey internet, I'm Astra Tsiolkovsky. I'm a doctoral student studying astrophysics in Unova. Ask me about science, engineering, and Space Stuff™ if you want rambles.
See my full about page (might be stale, I probably need to update this)
My Website (same)
My OC on here (Robot OC, 457-R4-1702 (it/its). Read it's pinned before interacting with. Warning, it's going to potentially be talking about adult topics. I don't do it often on there, but I'm reserving the right to)
I use the "cw: topic" format for tagging that kind of thing. The main exception is "suggestive" will not have a "cw:" in front of it.
I am a jirachi, and accept the labels of mythical and legendary, but I do not accept the label of deity/goddess/divine/etc.
I would ask you do not use the phrase "I wish" when talking with me unless I give you permission as a courtesy. Text may not set off anything or do anything, but it has associations with physical impacts IRL.
That said, I understand if you do not believe I am a jirachi, just be respectful, alright?
SINCE THIS POS SITE HAS IMPLEMENTED AN ASK LIMIT, HERE'S THE POST IM USING AS THE ASK BOX IF YOU HIT YOUR 10 PER HOUR LIMIT: [X]
Check with me OOCly before sending anything ICly transphobic to her. After a couple instances of this, and one OOC Totally Normal ask, you guys have lost privilege of me accepting and rejecting on the fly with the hope you'd know when to stop.
I'm mandating all asks that might be IC transphobic stuff get approval OFF ANON first and will block anons over not asking OOCly. That said, I know some of these are hard to recognize for those of you who've never had to think about it in depth. Just think twice on if need to ask please?
Similar applies to her jirachi status. I'm a bit more lenient and open to this one, but, like, please use your brains. I've had incidents with this as well.
Mail and mystery gift has been turned off due to repeated incidents of ignoring conditions on them. If you have my discord, or history of tumblr DM chat, I might be open to in advance arrangements.
Will Not Interact:
Magic Anon
Fae deals/name stealing
Meta Horror
Most forms of body horror
4th Wall Shenanigans
• I will just OOCly block a character's blog if you start having said character ICly talk about my OOC posts/notes/etc and there's no reasonable way it could have been mistaken as an IC post
Unambiguously confirmed bloodline curses
Glitch topics
• Note that glitch topics means more directly glitches-are-real in a setting, not say, making a fakemon inspired by a glitch
Very dark topics
• This includes post-apocalyptic stuff to be clear
Mental Alteration/Mind Control related subjects
• I WILL just ignore things, have Astra behave utterly OOC, blanket refuse to interact with characters, and/or just suddenly drop interaction as if never happened if required for this
• This includes pecharunt related items
Other Notes:
I try to treat her experiencing rotomblr as *just a website* as much as possible. Granted, one with weird multiversal connection that she will assume is due to ultrahole shenanigans she doesn't understand yet
Generally speaking I do not have her or blogs connected to her that I write participate in or acknowledge MMM
Lose combination of games and anime setting, leaning more towards the games
The Ultimate Weapon does not and never did exist in her universe
If I ever agree to accept a pelipper mail, it will be interpreted as regular parcel mail being sent to her via student services.
Please keep mystery gift pitches to minor items at most. She's a grad student as part of her character, part of that is putting up with tight money situation.
Astra's got the full abilities of a jirachi potentially, but is unable to use the vast majority of them yet. Think of it as getting a new limb suddenly.
Assumes sentient pokemon are rare, and mostly limited to:
• Ones with decent canon support (rotom inhabiting devices with a CPU, mewtwo, one off instances such as Meowth, latias, etc)
• Certain humanoid and/or psychic types raised in human society in a way that "bootstraps" them during critical development periods (e.g. Gardevoir line treated as effectively human from birth)
Feel free to treat her as a kid screwing around on the net with a character if you want or similar if it makes sense for your character's setup or personality
She's an adult lesbian, please block the tags "suggestive", "cw: boob joke", "cw: dick joke", "cw: sex joke", and "cw: sex mention" if you are not comfortable with those topics. Please let me know if you need something tagged.
Astra generally understands Plasma and especially Flare as fascist movements and will react accordingly
Astra does know what the block button is, and will block ICly. Check the tag "astra blocks" for what blogs are on her block list, as each IC block gets a post labeled that declaring she blocked the blog
being a lesbian playing videogames with a female protagonist kinda sucks
you keep having characters that you are informed are trying to be flirty with the player character instead of your understanding that they're creeping on you or lightly sexually harassing you
oh. that. um. kinda. like. have defied one of my visions before. but. like. took multiple different ones trying for that. and had some weird impacts. pretty sure they're, like, moat likely scenario viewing. like, when overwhelmingly like that
just. like, did something else. dunno. failures to defy basically all like... were me presented with the scenario, and, like... fuck, you know. didn't seem appealing to not do, or like, didn't think to not do, or shit like that
uh... pretty sure others can? but. like. you probably aren't. very fuxkin rare for defy my real prophecies. like, maybe happened once or something? and get them several times a day
Okay. So then. If someone else wanted to defy a vision. First they would need you to tell them. And then they would need to refuse to do whatever you saw. And that part would be difficult because it's going to be something they. Want to do? Are likely to do? But it's still possible if they just. Try hard enough. Does that sound right?
kinda. since. like, it's not so much compelled as like... this is what would happen, and you would wanna do it and other stuff. or circumstances outside your control already in motion. or stuff.
keep in mind that, like... even when you're aware of the prophecy, you aren't going to want to do other things causing it to play out. like. the haunter stuff. did you for a single moment think to not go in a location that would allow it to play out at that time?
I think. I went because it'd be funny? I mean. Mimi wanted to walk. And then I saw the gas station. And. I think that reminded me of what you said? I'm pretty sure I remember thinking something like. "How crazy would it be if there was a haunter here". And besides. I like when things like that happen. I'm not going to avoid getting to see a haunter or letting Mimi socialize.
So then. The only way to avoid a prophecy is to. Act against my character? Or avoid doing what I would normally do? Refuse to do what I want to do? Or feel like I should do? I think. I could do that. Maybe.
since you can defy, but you really really really aren't going to think to, or want to, or any number of things. also sometimes things are just fully out of your control. like fuckin rain and shit
even with knowledge of the prophecy, things will lead you to want to complete it, not because of force, but because that's just how you and everyone else is
I'm still going to try. I have to know if it's something I can do. If my thoughts and my actions are really my own then this is what I'm going to use them for. Just once. Just to know. Just in case.
I think I get it. I just. I want the peace of mind I guess. I'm not a star. I'm not perfect. Sometimes what I want to be and what I am are different. And if I ever find out that I'm. On the wrong track. I want to know that I can change course.
The uh. Ninja training session was fun. Kiyoko and I kind of let Sousuke take the steering wheel, but at least he knows how to disappear into the rafters and has been given a guidebook on conversational subterfuge. this won't end badly at all.
anyway, took the kids out for dinner as my treat. I do rather enjoy that they care as much as they do.
