CASTOR YOUR POWER ABT DREAMS IS SO COOL!!!! It can be used either for good or for vengeance and that is beautiful !! can you do it on yourself? portray your own dreams when bored or such?? :0
Castor: Why thank you thank you 😌 Now that you mention it I do believe it’s never crossed my mind before but it’s worth a try.
“Snaps his fingers to reveal a beautiful scarlet rose and hands it too ya”
Voila! Now do me a favor and give this too your special someone if you have one, it might just be worth your while 😉 If you’re like me however-
“The rose quickly fades into a golden yellow color”
-then give this to a friend whom you hold dear. Show em how much you really care.
——————————————————————————
Thanks for sending in my first official inbox question @arahdow ! It was a pretty good one I hadn’t considered before.
Fun fact although he’s AroAce not too unlike his fathers whom I headcanon to be Demiromantic (Sonic) and Demisexual (Shadow) respectively, Castor is ironically a bit of a romantic. He has no interest in pursuing that kind of relationship for himself but finds great pleasure in the beauty love can bring when two or more people find the right match with each other and as a result is quite the matchmaker. With that being said, having relationship issues? Come see Castor! He’ll be sure to steer you into the right direction.
Don’t forget to vote for Castor over @sonic-fankid-showdown !! He’s going to need a massive sweep if anyone is betting on him to win!
Oh forgot to mention it but Roses actually have different meanings depending on their color and what combination of Roses you decide to go for. For example Red Roses typically represent love and romance while Yellow Roses represent Friendship and Happiness. If you were to combine the two together they’d mean that you have fallen for a dear friend and regardless of what happens you’ll love them no matter what because their presence makes you happy so if you’ve caught feelings for a friend this might make for a pretty nice gift that shows them how much you really care about them. So if you’re going to give someone a Rose whether it be the actual flower or an accessory then I’d look into the meaning behind it’s color first so you can figure out what kind would be best to give.

THE LANGUAGE OF FLOWERS
Pairing. Castor Niclaw x reader (+special cameo)
Content. fem!reader, castor is a sweet boy, fluff, missunderstanding (because lack of communication), crack.
Word count. 1.2 k
A/N. this is the first work I make for a oc's of the sonic fankid showdown!! I'll be making more of these bcs i'm such a fan of a lot of kids!! soooo hope you enjoy this one !!
It’s been a couple of days since the last time Castor spoke to her. Nerves soon began to eat her up, and she didn’t even know what happened for him to put that kind of distance between the two of them. Mumbling to herself about the possibilities, she couldn’t think of what could be wrong.
“Why don’t you just ask him?” Mav, her friend, asked her.
“It’s not that simple!” She complained, rubbing her eyes. “What if he doesn’t want to see me at all? It’ll make things worse!”
“Or, it can clear things up… Come on!”
“No. I’ll try to get information without him knowing and you’ll help me!” the girl said pointing a finger at his face. Mav sighed and rolled his eyes; he couldn’t help but comply at her friends’ antics.
Days passed, both of them following Castor around secretly, spying on him around the island, but there was no information, just him living a normal life like everyone else.
“I told you, you won’t get anything unless you talk to him.” Mav said as he lay on the couch of his friend’s house, stretching his limbs up.
“I don’t know…” she replied sitting cross legged on the carpeted floor, in front of the couch.
Mav looked at his friend and clicked his tongue. “Alright, I’ll help.” He said, moving to lay on his side. A hand beneath his chin. “What was the last time you guys spoke?”
“I don’t know, maybe… Like a week…” The girl replied, defeated.
“Okay, and what happened that day?”
Recalling, the girl started to narrate their encounter: what they talked about, the jokes they both cracked, the laughs, but she was soon stopped by Mav’s interjecting fast, sitting abruptly on the couch.
“Wait, what did you just said?”
“He was talking about the golden flowers he could materialize from his thoughts?”
“And you said…”
“That I had a gift for him!”
“Which was?”
“A… Bouquet of white ivies?”
Mav opened his eyes, too stunned to speak. “Now why would you give flowers to a guy? Do you like him?”
“No!” the girl replied quickly. “I mean, not in that way! We’re just friends! I wanted to give him something he’d like, as I know he likes the language of flowers.”
Both of them kept quiet for a second. “What does giving ivies mean?”
The girl smiled. “Oh, I read on an article that they meant an everlasting friendship…”
It was weird then. The flowers meant no harm. Then what was it?
“You know what? You’re right, I didn’t do anything wrong!” Mav’s friend said as she got up and walked to the door. “I’ll ask him once and for all what’s happening and why he isn’t talking to me.” She said decisively as she went outside, quickly heading to the place Castor usually went: the library.
Quickly getting to the place, she entered. It was almost empty, just a few people, but Castor was on a corner, far away from everyone. As she walked up to him, she sat on the unoccupied chair of his table, his attention suddenly disturbed by the presence of the girl. He frowned, a grimace on his face. A forced teethy smile on his lips.
“Heeey.” He said closing the book he was reading.
“We need to talk,” The girl said, her voice low so she wouldn’t disturb the other people.
“Do we really?” he asked putting the book away, resisting the urge to leave.
She groaned. “Castor, what is going on? Why aren’t you talking to me? Is it about the flowers?” A whispered yell was heard in the hall, but nobody seemed to care.
Castor looked at her, then looked around and his eyes fell on her again. Inhaling sharply, he got closer to her, his elbows on the table as he leaned closer.
“Look, I don’t mean to be rude, but I’m not interested in… Anything regarding of a partner and all that, you’re my friend! And… I don’t know…”
“What are you talking about?” she interrupted, a confused expression crossing on her face.
Castor cleared his throat and replied.
“About the marriage proposal.”
Marriage proposal?!
“What? What marriage proposal?” the girl’s voice suddenly grew higher.
“With the flowers!” he said, his voice getting a little higher involuntarily. “I didn’t know you saw me like that but I thought you knew I’m not… Into that…”
“Castor what… Hold on…” the girl put a hand up so he could stop talking for a moment. “What does the white ivies mean?” she asked covering her lips with her fist.
The lilac hedgehog raised an eyebrow, didn’t she know that?
“It’s a flower presented to the bride and groom as symbols of everlasting life, devotion, fidelity and loyalty. The Greeks also used it to make a crown for Liber, the God of Fertility, as well as poets and other muses.” He explained with a weird tone, like he was explaining the most obvious thing to her.
But he noticed it wasn’t that obvious when the girl turned absolutely red and licked her lips nervously. She didn’t know where to look, the space in the whole library suddenly wasn’t enough for her to take a good breath.
“You’re telling me I gave you… Marriage flowers?”
Castor nodded.
“I thought they meant an everlasting friendship…” She said finally, with a weak voice as she covered her face with her hands.
And then it was silent.
“Friendship? Where did you read that?”
Still covering her face, she replied: “Google.”
A low laugh could be heard from the other side of the table, soon turning loud. A quick shush from another person on the library made Castor stop laughing.
“My friend, you should know better than to trust Google.” He spoke. With a deep sigh, he stretched on the chair and stood up. The girl looked at him in between her fingers. “Well, seems to me like everything goes back to normal. What do you think?” He said, putting one of his hands on her shoulder. Slowly, she raised from her seat, still warm in the face from embarrassment.
“I’ll need you to educate me more on that flowery language you like so I don’t mess up next time.”
He smiled. Walking out of the library, they noticed the sun was almost setting. Castor looked at his friend, stretching out his hand behind her ear, he caught a bouquet of pink tulips, handing them over so she could grab them. She knew he just summoned those flowers because of the faint purple glow it had and she found it perfect.
Picking one of the tulips, she gave it to him.
Castor looked intently at the flower and raised it in the air, towards the setting sun. “I wish for us to have a good friendship forever.” Like a wish, holding the tulip, he then blew on the soft petals, the flower soon turning into a dandelion, its fluff flowing through the air as a promise for eternity.
**Pink tulips are known for meaning affection, caring, good wishes, and love. Although not as deep or passionate love as red tulips represent. Pink tulips are great to send to friends and family members to show them you care.

Heyy! Could I request Jason x Child of Nyx! Reader, i'd figure it'd be a cool thing since you know Zeus and Nyx don't really like each other that and then their children fall in love.
You don't have to do it, if you don't want to and ps. I love all of your works! <3
okay so these have been sitting in my inbox since eons ago, so I decided I was gonna set myself a minimum of 0.4k words because I figured people would rather read a lil bit of their request rather then non of it, but I just churned out 1.2k words of this and I know more then the gods do about nocturnal animals.
enjoy <3
he was raised by wolves - Jason G x child of Nyx reader/animal lover
»»————- ★ ————-««
Jason dumped his teddy bear jacket on the back of the spinning chair, after he checked there were no hedgehogs eating plum offcuts on it. He’d made that mistake one too many times. There were a lot of miniscule holes in the sleeves of his jacket.
The medical kit he was looking for was most likely in one of the crates stacked beneath the snake table. The table with the snake tanks on it, obviously.
Your cabin was dark a lot of the time, when you weren’t there, courtesy of the kingdom of nocturnal animals lurking between books and in pillowcases, so Jason had to turn on a few of the antique lamps you’d found [on the side of the road, of course] so that other people could see.
He got to his knees, wincing at the crack he heard.
He could also hear a faint hissing. He looked into one of the tanks, and waved at Benjamin. Benjamin was a northern desert night snake. Meaning he looked like if a leopard wearing a choker was turned into a slithery little serpent. Jason was glad you’d passed that pet leopard you used to have onto Pollux and Castor. It got fur all over his clothes.
Benjamin just stuck his tongue out at him, and Jason crawled underneath the desk, looking for the first aid kit every cabin was supposed to have.
There was a pretty high chance you had chucked it out to make room for that little collection of shrinking green frogs you had found in a river by the Hecate cabin, deep in the woods so that when they accidentally cursed bloodlines and the like, no one was in imminent danger. Lou Ellen owed her first born to three different beings, but that was irrelevant.
He dug past a few boxes of sugar glider pellets, and found the first aid kit.
“JASON GRACE, SON OF A BITCH, CHILD OF ROME, CONSUL OF DEMIGODS, PRAETOR OF THE FIRST LEGION!”
Jason sat straight up. A thud echoed through the low lit little cabin, and his head began to pound. He’d hit it on the bottom of the snake table. He sniffed, “I said that once.”
He heard you trot over as he tried to extract himself, the back of his head throbbing painfully.
“Babe, we talked about this,” you fussed, and yanked him out into the open with the force of someone who took chocolate out of coyotes mouths on the daily. “You gotta stop banging your head! You’re getting that chronic pain from it that Will told you about!”
Jason grumbled about nothing, and squinted as he looked around. Your face was just a blob.
“You dropped your glasses babe, hear, lemme… wait, hold this,” you said, dumping your wrapped up hoodie into his arms, the one with the moon cycle phases on the back, and then crawling back underneath the snake table. “I’ve got em!”
He watched you slide them back onto his eyes, your hands actually very gentle compared to the yanking from before. He tried not to grin stupidly. The hoodie in his arms wriggled. Jason looked down, and a small spiky red face looked up at him with big shiny eyes.
“Uh…” he said.
You stood up with a huff, “I knew it, you’ve got a concussion. Now you’re slurring your speech!”
“...No, I just wasn’t expecting a fox,” Jason managed to squeak out, staring at the little animal. It was pretty cute. It reminded him of a wolf, but not the wolves he knew, more of a spindly wolf dipped in ketchup.
You paused, the first aid kit in your hands. “You weren’t? What did you think I was doing in the forest?”
“I don’t know,” Jason said, standing back up and moving to the squishy blanketed bed behind the humongous crystal ball and stack of telescopes. There were also a few cat playgrounds to weave around, but he managed to sink into your pile of bat shaped teddies and pillows. “Fighting monsters, near death experiences, something regular?”
You rolled your eyes, and sat cross legged on the bed, reaching for his head with those gentle hands that made him understand how you could pick up the deadliest of spiders and feralist of wolverines without even a scratch.
Jason wasn’t even nocturnal, but he did sink into your hold.
Then you let go to crack the unfrozen ice pack and let the chemicals take over until it would make the tips of your fingers freezing. Jason knew to expect your cold hands under his shirt, trying to freeze him out.
He was sort of used to it, though.
He looked around your cabin while you savagely whacked the poor icepack against one of the many thick framed mirrors lining your walls. A few bats flapped out of their hiding places in the rafters and settled back down. A baby puma hissed from its place by the umbrella stand that was actually just full of swords.
From the outside, your cabin looked like a tiny portion of a haunted mansion plonked between the Asteria cabin and the Hestia cabin, which was really just a cozy little room for anyone. Jason pet the soft head of the fox napping in his arms. On the inside, though, it was just old lamps and chew toys and even older mirrors. And a lot of poo bags. And record players. And Jason’s hoodies.
You were already wearing his teddy bear jacket, but he didn’t argue when you pressed the ice pack to his head.
“So, what were you really lookin for in there, babe?” you asked, taking back the fox. You held your hand out, and it disappeared into a shadow.
“Bandages.”
On the other side of the room, out of a shadow, you grabbed a ziploc bag of raspberries. You pulled it back and began feeding the little fox, red staining your cold fingertips.
“You know you can’t beat Beth, right?” you teased, looking up for a moment with those gorgeous eyes that made Jason’s head feel a little floaty. Or maybe it was just the injury.
You smirked, “I mean, not that it’s totally not hot when you beat the shit out of people or anything.”
Yep. Definitely just the head injury. Totally.
Jason ate a slightly squashed raspberry. “I know, but I wanted to practise. I was gonna find Will. Can’t remember how to wrap my wrists.”
You passed over the fox, who wiggled out of the hoodie and curled around a fruit bat Squishmellow with a yawn, fangs stained with red that may or may not be berries or blood.
Jason shuffled forwards on the bed, ice pack falling from his white blonde hair. “My turn?”
“I thought you were going to get the shit beaten out of you by Annabeth?” You said with a smirk. You had that shark tooth necklace on. Jason gave you a half hearted evil eye, and you opened your arms.
He flopped into the hug, pushing you both back onto the bed. A Tasmanian devil [how? You were in America!] and a grumpy looking white tailed deer and about seven different types of bush mice stared at you.
Jason didn’t care. He snuggled into your hug, chin on your chest. Your fingers ran through his hair.
He was your favorite feral animal.

All animal species (and a couple algae) that have kept the same scientific name since Linnaeus
The first work of taxonomy that is considered as having any scientific authority for animal species was the 10th edition of Linnaeus' Systema Naturae, published in 1758. (Also a book on spiders called Aranei Suecici, published one year before.) That's the foundational text of the binominal system of nomenclature of species still in use today. Since then most of Linnaeus' original species (4379 species, of which 185 mammals, 554 birds, 217 "amphibians" (including reptiles and cartilaginous fish), 379 fishes, 2104 "insects" (including various arthropods, of which 664 are beetles and 543 are moths & butterflies crammed into only 3 genera), and 940 "worms" (including basically all other invertebrates, and even some protists and algae)) have been dismembered, renamed, or at least moved to different genera (e.g. the house sparrow went from Fringilla domestica to Passer domesticus).
Here is a list of all of Linnaeus' original species from 1758 that still retain their original name. I believe they are 484 in total.

Animal Crossing Fish - Explained #228
Brought to you by a marine biologist and our last mammals...
CLICK HERE FOR THE AC FISH EXPLAINED MASTERPOST!
It's time we covered Chip and CJ, two beavers who hold the Fishing Tournaments in the AC franchise. Let's get into it!
From https://nookipedia.com/
Chip there on the right is an older beaver who has held the Fishing Tournaments in the AC series since the very beginning all the way until ACNH when his son, CJ, took over. Chip and CJ both host the Fishing Tourneys in Pocket Camp off and on. These special events allow players to fish and win great items they can't get any other way.
Beavers are in Class Mammalia - they have hair, are warm-blooded, and most importantly, feed their babies milk produced by an adult's mammary glands. Within this Class is the Order Rodentia, the order of rodents, which make up about 40% of all mammal species. However, I find that a lot of people confuse what is and isn't a rodent quite often - it feels like people classify something as a rodent as long as it's really small and furry (which is a mistake and we'll get back to that). Rodents are characterized by a single pair of continuously growing incisors on the upper and the lower jaw. If a rodent doesn't have anything to gnaw on, those incisor teeth can actually grow in dangerous ways and kill the animal if not treated. That being said, here is a short list of animals I hear people call "rodents" when they're not:
Bats - are NOT rodents. They are not "flying rats"; they are more closely related - and have almost the same dentition - as your dog. As primates, us humans are way more closely related to rats.
Moles, hedgehogs, and shrews - are NOT rodents. They belong to a separate Order between us and bats called Eulipotyphla.
Oppossums and possums - are NOT rodents - they are marsupials.
Rabbits and hares - are NOT rodents (they're Lagomorphs) but at least you were close, as they're sister groups.
Who is a rodent? Beavers, capybara, guinea pigs, hamsters, rats, mice, squirrels, marmots, chinchillas, etc etc etc. Many of these animals listed are common pets with relatively short lives. Despite their size and lifespan, they are a lot of work and are a commitment, so don't get one if you're looking for an "easy pet". No such thing.
So, yeah, "small and fuzzy" isn't a trait all rodents share. Beavers are some of the largest rodents in the world, with large individuals growing to about 70 lbs. (32 kg). They are not small.
Despite the way Chip looks at fish and alludes to the fact that he'll eat your fish when you aren't looking, beavers irl don't actually eat fish at all. Beavers are strictly herbivorous and feed on a wide variety of woody and aquatic plants. Despite the diversity of rodents, there are only 2 species of beaver in the world - the North American (Castor canadensis) and Eurasion (Castor fiber) beavers. Both species look very alike, so it's anyone's guess which exactly Chip and CJ are. Nevertheless, beavers boast one of the thickest and softest fur of any mammal, which wasn't great for them, as many populations were hunted extensively for the fur trade. Luckily, beavers are still considered Least Concern, with the both species having wide ranges across their home continents.
Beavers, like quite a few of their rodent cousins, like the capybara and muskrat, are semi-aquatic and are great swimmers. They have webbed back feet and can stay underwater for 15 minutes. They use this skill to their advantage by using water as a place to hide from their predators.
Look at him go!
The most incredible thing about beavers, though, is their engineering skills. Although not every beaver will build a dam, they have the skills and the tools (their teeth) to do so. And once they do, they create new wetland habitats I spoke about in this Museum Tour entry. Misconceptions about beaver dams are common, no thanks to the media image of the beaver. As I said before, not every beaver will build a dam - if they find a spot that provides quality swimming area and food, they're just as happy in a burrow on the water's edge. Beavers also don't live in the dam - that structure is actually to dam up a river and create the pond they use for protection. A beaver lodge is another structure all its own where the beavers live, have their babies, and hang out during winter (they don't hibernate). One structure can exist without the other. The lodge often has its entrance underwater so only the beaver family can get into the lodge. Beavers, though happy to munch on a great variety of plants, are actually picky about which plants are used for building and which ones are for eating. And last but not least, and certainly not exhaustive, beavers don't use their tails to build - the tail is for swimming, storing fat, and communicating with their family and other beavers. So, no, they don't use their tails to deliver or spread mud while building their dams, I'm sorry to say. Woulda been cute, though.
And there you have it. Fascinating stuff, no?

some details about castor!
— his full name is castor fletcher.
— he adores theater for the drama and vibrance and inherent magic of it; loves making each performance as fantastical as possible. he has a vivid imagination and designed many parts of the theater’s interior when he and vela were remodeling the building; vela made the designs realistic enough to actually create.
— in addition to time manipulation, he’s good at minor “pretty magic” (which he describes as “flair”). he uses it to add a touch of noticeable flair to things (he makes his paperwork smell nice, forms stars and sailboats out of the steam from his tea, taps a stage prop to make it glimmer for no reason whatsoever, etc.). things like the peculiar window in his office are not his creation and have other stories behind them!
— he is rather disorganized; his theater office is a bit chaotic (papers and books scattered everywhere; he claims to have some sense of order known only to him); often loses things (anything and everything).
— castor is scarily perceptive. it would be nearly impossible to lie to him… if he wasn’t so easily distracted with daydreams and stories. that being said, he’s still hard to deceive when he isn’t caught in thought. he’s the “knowing twinkle in his eye” type.
— castor is quite clever in general even if his demeanor may suggest otherwise at times. his words often have subtle tests built into them to uncover details about people, even in casual conversations.
— he stretches the truth for dramatic effect. he can lie remarkably smoothly, but since he usually lies or exaggerates for theatrics alone, it’s often easy to tell he’s skewing things a bit. he’s also susceptible to flattery even if he knows someone is flattering him.
— has a limp, favors his right foot; walks with a dark brown cane with a silvery raven’s head on the top (he chose its design for the extravagance of it all).
— has a sense of humor and a flair for the dramatic; talkative (he likes the sound of his own voice and adores storytelling); he often finds other people amusing and enjoys making teasing comments at their expense, just for a chuckle; amiable in general (good-humored, pleasant, a bit whimsical).
— he used to sail quite often, but for certain reasons, he needed to stop. he still loves the seafaring and ocean aesthetic, and he collects shells, small sailboat models, and glass bottles with tiny ships inside.
— likes whales, owls, cats, and hedgehogs.
— his favorite colors are blues and silvers and other shades associated with the sea and sailing.
— superstitious; in addition to scolding people for lateness, he is quite firm about people abiding by many theater superstitions (keeping the ghost light illuminated, not bringing mirrors on stage, not lighting a trio of candles within the theater, never whistling backstage, not saying ‘macbeth’, etc.).
— absolutely clueless about how to act around young children, typically treats them like small adults.

No último dia 29, a Kate se tornou a primeira presidenta mulher da The Scout Association, associação de escoteiros do Reino Unido!
⚜️ Ela é agora co-presidenta da associação juntamente com o Príncipe Edward - Duque de Kent, que ocupa a função desde 1975. A Rainha é a patrona da instituição desde 1952.
☘️ A Duquesa tem um longo histórico de escotismo e bandeirantismo. Na infância, quando a Scouts ainda não aceitava integrantes meninas, Kate foi uma Brownie da Girlguiding, organização feminina de bandeirantismo. E, desde o seu ingresso na Família Real, tornou-se oficialmente voluntária da Scouts.
