SNOW
IN PISTWICK
IN M A R C H!!!
How and why but also thank you arceus for this wonderful event I have been wishing for snow since the start of winter and it's only now come true
Weird that it's happening on st David's day in, I repeat, March, but I'm happy nonetheless :)
I've just gotten home for the weekend, I've got a reading week so I'm back for a few days of chilling before I head back to continue working. Most of my mons arent happy about the snow, but they can sulk inside with my mother while myself and her team of primarily ice types enjoy the cold, powdery goodness that is natural snow :)

Petition for a group of mushroom Pok茅mon (e.g. morelul, amoongus, etc.) to be given a proper group name. I just honest-to-arc heard someone called a group of shroomish a herd in a presentation, and I won't stand for it.
Actual mushrooms get the group names of "cluster" or "troop", and i'm partial to calling mushroom mons a gathering, but at some point we need to have a sit down and decide on an actual name for them, please.

This reminds me of the best arc damn sandwich I've ever eaten in my life. I got it from one of the shops on campus that sells it from this one brand. It was pesto, avian meat substitute, lettuce, and sun dried tomato, all in a sourdough bread. I had it after class one day in the first week of my first year of naruva. It was amazing and I've not been able to find it since and I'm devastated.
And yet banana, tomato, pickle, pineapple, peanut butter and mayo sandwiches (one sandwich using all of those ingredients) are somehow allowed to exist??? Devastating 馃様
Paldeans will be like "behold the cuisine passed down from my people for generations" and then make the worst fucking sandwich you've ever seen in your life

Heyyyy, guess who landed herself in the hospital 馃お
It's me, I did that
I'm okay! Not in any danger and honestly not really hurt that much, I'm okay to keep going to class and I'll be right as rain within a month or so.
But... Uh...
Okay so, remember the whole thing with my two psychic types? Ralter and Flamb茅 have both been fighting Real Bad since they evolved, and honestly since the start of last semester it's gotten pretty awful. So I've been trying more and more extreme measures to get them to get along! But nothing's been working, so I've been wracking my brain for strategies to get them to tolerate one another.
As I was looking through some of my older posts, I came across one in which I sent an ask to someone asking for advice, and they told me that it's likely that the two mons are trying to protect me, and are fighting over who's more capable. I kinda dismissed it at the time, since I considered Chomp as the leader of my Mons and kinda the default protector, and I knew that flamb茅 and ralter respected that, but it was kind of my only option by the time I was rereading.
S o
What I did was that I got my friends (the ones from back home who also go to Naruva) to stand in a circle with their Pok茅mon, with myself and my two mons in the middle. What I then had my friends do was fire off attacks pointed at my direction while I stood still (we agreed that their Mons would aim for like just past my head or my feet. i specifically didnt move so that there was less of a chance of me getting hit). It was then Ralter and Flamb茅's job to work Together to defend against the attacks.
They did really well at it, too! After a few minutes of arguing, a wave of razor leaf "almost got me", which got them to stop arguing and start defending again. They seemed to actually kinda enjoy the exercise and got into a really good rhythm. Usually, when they do double battles, they argue too much to get anything done, but I figure now that they had something to protect and Had to work together, they wanted to make it work more.
It went on for like,,, 30 minutes??? Before I called a time-out so that the Mons could take a break, since everyone was looking kinda tired and/or thirsty.
Usually, when we call time-out in the battle club we go to (me and my Mons), everything stops immediately as soon as the whistle blows, so Ralter and Flamb茅 put down their guard straight away, as they were trained to do. What we didn't account for, however, was my buddy's newly-caught pachirisu not quite getting the memo, and continuing to fire attacks. So what I didn't expect, as I started walking to leave the circle, was a full-force electroball hitting me square in the chest.
Which! I just want to say this was absolutely not the mon's fault, it'd just been caught and isn't used to stuff like this. I should have been a bit more cautious and waited for my friends to recall their Pok茅mon before I started walking, that was my bad completely.
But anyway, it winded me and kinda knocked me to the ground, whoops :/ I managed to hit my head on the way down, too, so my friends called me an ambulance just in case something was wrong.
I've got a mild (very mild!) Concussion and my ribs are bruised, but other than that I got off scot-free! Which is good, considering it was an electric-type attack, so I was expecting to be shocked pretty bad. But! I'm good! They've got me on pain meds, and I'm going to stay here in the hospital for a night of observation before they send me back. Other than some pain while breathing and instructions to rest up and not exert my chest too much, as well as not drinking alcohol while the (again, very mild, totally okay!!!) concussion heals up, I'm totally okay to keep going to class and doing practicals. I'll just have my Mons help me out a little more while im on field trips.
Ralter and Flamb茅, bless their hearts, have been by my side the entire time. I feel terrible for making them worry like this :( usually I'd recall my Pok茅mon in a hospital or other government building, but I couldn't bear to do that to them right now, I think they need to be able to see that I'm doing good, y'know?? I've been reassuring them that it wasn't their fault, and that they did Such a good job of protecting me. They'd known it was an exercise and that I wasn't in any real danger, which let them have fun with it, but now that ive actually gotten hrut it seems to have spooked them both kinda bad. I think, once I get back tomorrow, I'm going to have a proper stay-at-home day with my mons in the house, so we can all have a cwtch and chill out after today.
But again! Totally okay, I'm not in any danger or much pain, the pachirisu isnt in any trouble whatsoever, I've got meds and I'm on the road to recovery thanks to the staff at the hospital <33 I just thought I'd give a little update and laugh a little at my silly mistakes.

I figured out how to book the rooms! :)
I found some money in my safe that I hadn't worked into my budget so my mom's are getting some good snacks tonight. Chomp is being an absolute dear and helping me carry everything (read: not letting me carry anything. I've managed to convince him to let me handle the mint and basil plants that we got at the store, but that's about it. My silly little man.) But its a fair walk from where we are, so I've called us a taxi to come get us.
I've been feeling kinda rough these past few days? Being back in paldea has been nice, but I'm also super homesick. I've been anxious about some stuff that's been happening, so I think that's made it worse, but having my mom's here has been helpful. Though, I do miss being able to hug my mother. I miss her :(
Still! First week back has been great, I've started my new modules, which is fun. I've got Vertebrate pok茅ology, climate change (again. I had a similar module last year, but that one focused on the climate itself, while this one focuses on its impacts on living things), and ecological surveying. I'm excited to learn more! While inverts and bug and water Pok茅mon are super interesting, I'm stoked to learn about things outside of water and hives, haha. Maybe I'll finally get to do some coursework on dragon types :0

I'm back! In paldea, that is. I started classes just yesterday, plus a new DND campaign on Sunday, so it's been busy! But that's fine, I'm in the home stretch till my year in industry, and then I get to stay in Galar for a year and a half and live at home :)

:0 sick! To be fair if it was going to be any kind of funky hair, monochrome would probably be ideal. You could star in an old-timey noir movie and they wouldnt even have to put the black and white filter on you
I just cheat the system, my hair is brown naturally but I refuse to accept that and dye it pink
You may have already gotten an ask like this in the past, so I apologise if it's a repeat but,,, like,,,
Do you dye your hair??? Or is it like that naturally?? Like,,, did you get the inspiration from the ziggy line or are they your arceus assigned kin pokemon???
Usually I'd assume it's dyed but considering some folks have natural purple or green hair I didnt think itd be too much of a stretch to ask.
[[@pokemon-teacology]]
S'aright, I do get asked often, but not everybody knows so I don' mind.
It's natural, believe it or not. On m'grandfather's side, their hair turns black and white in older age. However my mum also had naturally bicolor hair, so I got a bit of double whammy so t'speak.
Mine and Marnie's hair will probably turn more white as we get older, which is fine. I think it looks kinda mint honestly.

The best thing about now having my prescription physically written in front of me for the first time is that I can now buy myself a pair of prescription sunglasses that don't cost like 30,000P, I've managed to snag some online for 4,500P! Which is sick, no more overpaying to be able to see
It also means I can order contact lenses by myself, too, so I dont have to go and ask for them and have the story try to sell me more stuff. They always manage to, too, because I can't say no to people :(
Ah, such is the plight of the people pleaser.

I'm late by a little bit but shhh it's finneee
Shout-out to my dragons <333 Chomp, my first Pok茅mon, my biggest advocate even when he was going through his rebellious middle-stage evolution, my silly big ole guy that insists on carrying me about everywhere. Smilliam, my lil baby man, my non-battling king who evolved because he saw a picture of a Dragonair and wanted to look pretty like that, my silly sausage baby man who likes to cuddle and steal my body heat. And Crassius, my menace of a dragalge that loves to laugh as my silly failures and push me into large bodies of water. I love them dearly <333
HAPPY APPRECIATE A DRAGON DAY APPRECIATE ALLLLLLLL DRAGONS PLEASE TY!!!!!!!

Things with the trouble two are becoming... Frustrating, to say the least. Ive been going on walks lately around my hometown and hanging out in the woods (NOT the slumbering weald, i dont have a death sentence)
It's been nice, and I thought being outside would give Flamb茅 and Ralter a chance to be in the same space with no stakes, but every time I turn to look at something in more detail (usually a plant or mushroom) they start growling and snarling again. I'm fairly certain psychic types aren't even supposed to do that!
I've tried having individual days with them, I've tried to get them in the same space, I've brought them to group events together, I've tried separating them. Nothing I di seems to work with these two. This may seem kinda out of the blue for y'all reading, since I don't post about it Super often, but I've been really trying behind the scenes to work with them. I think I'm going to have to try something bigger if I want to fix this.

I went on a date last night! :D it went okay, I don't think I'll see him again, but i had a good time :D and utterly destroyed him in bowling and air hockey.
It feels good to get myself back into the dating world! For some context, I was in a relationship for like a year and a half with someone I'd known since the start of secondary school, but after I reached 18 I realised it wasn't healthy and cut contact. However!! Now I'm done healing and ready to start dating again >:鲁
On a different note, I'm heading back to paldea in about two weeks to start the new semester! :D exciting. The trainer season wont start up until march ish once the harsher weather in the colder parts of galar calms down and isnt dangerous to traverse by foot, so I've got some time before I'll be updating yall on that.

New glasses! I'm going for a test in like 20 minutes, because not only is my current prescription not accurate anymore, but my current glasses are torn to bits from various activities such as looking through microscopes too hard and using them as a shield for my eyes while climbing trees to look at applins.
So I'm looking forward to some new ones. I hate doing the opticians alone so Chomp is coming with me as my emotional support. (Which also means I can't get peer pressured into buying more than what I need by the sales folk there. Perks to having a traditionally intimidating Pok茅mon)
