Figure 11(a) shows how a number of them were combined by a hunting group of twelve people to catch a school of yellowbelly or bream in the larger fullish waterholes, such as at Lake Francis. Figure 11(b) shows a pair of strung rope nets for trapping ground animals, in particular kangaroos and emus. (...) The principle of the strung net – albeit string ones with a finer mesh – combined with the raceway or palisade could also be used to catch dozens or hundreds of small birds, such as budgerigars or parrots, which were chased out of trees by hunters using returning boomerangs and shrill calls to imitate hawk attacks, forcing them to fly low in their flocks, as shown in Figure 11(c). Figure 11(d) illustrates another technique for catching flocks of pigeons, galahs or parrots adjacent to a large waterhole.

i absolutely love that jim is the one to keep the heart of stede’s crew alive while ed did everything he could to destroy it.

one of the first comments ed makes to stede’s crew in season 1 is “everyone’s covered in rope!” so what does jim do? literally covers themself in rope, to remind ed that, as long as they’re alive, that hope and love isn’t going anywhere.

not only that, but, in the bible, rope is a symbolism for trust and security. jim became a secure place for the crew to tie themselves to while just trying to stay alive.

of course, i then had to look into why they have a fishing net around their shoulders as well, and found The Fishing Net Parable from the Book of Matthew (13:47-52):

"Once again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was let down into the lake and caught all kinds of fish. When it was full, the fishermen pulled it up on the shore. Then they sat down and collected the good fish in baskets, but threw the bad away.”

“This is how it will be at the end of the age. The angels will come and separate the wicked from the righteous and throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”

jim amputates izzy’s leg, despite having never done it before. they quite literally separate him from the rotten bits to save his life.

jim says, “he was your friend.” they separate ed from who he was before from who he’s allowed himself to become, not to punish him, but to remind him of the consequences of his actions.

jim tells izzy point blank, “you’re in an unhealthy relationship with blackbeard.” they aren’t trying to break them up; they’re just bringing to light whats true so things can (hopefully) get better.

jim shows archie that, just because pirating is normally done a certain way, doesn’t mean it has to—they separate archie from the toxic belief that “that’s just how things are, it’s just life,” and “why save him if he’s a dick?”

jim tries to separate the idea from the crew that ed is fine, because they immediately recognize that things are about to get much worse: “so, do we think he’s better?” “FUCK no!”

jim immediately says, “wasn’t the wedding thing a bit over the line?” they know they’re all pirates and have questionable morals anyway, but knows it was fucked up of them to massacre a wedding, an event that’s supposed to be joyful and full of life and beginnings, not death and destruction. they’re, again, dividing up the way things are vs. how they could (and should) be.

ed tries to pin them all dying on jim cause they wouldn’t kill archie, but they bite back with, “you would’ve done it anyway!” they know exactly where the lies are, and separates them from the truth, and ed can’t deny it.

jim separates themself (and olu) from the bounds of monogamy through their honesty. olu is still their best friend and lover and family even though they found and did things with someone else.

jim holds out their hand for olu to take when they’re escaping the red flag. olu’s interest in zheng yi sao isn’t bad and jim’s not trying to separate them, but is trying to keep together the things that are good: their family.

(later addition, edit) jim is also the one that “kills” ed. they’re the one to make that final choice, to say, “it’s you or us.” jim’s actions and choices entire first two episodes led them to that moment, like it was the “final judgment” of blackbeard.

jim is the rope and net of the crew. they’re trust and security and honesty, everything that stede was trying to get the crew to understand from day 1, everything stede is always trying to embody (and i dare say is starting to succeed at).

After the First Contact formalities, the alien ambassadors said: "There is so much we want to learn from you."

"From us?"

"You humans have string."

"String?"

"Only you have invented string. And you use them for so much!"

#microfiction #VSS #writers on tumblr #Science fiction #First contact #Have you ever thought about how much we do with string?#Weaving and knitting and crocheting and plaiting and ropes and cables #So we can make nets and rigging for sailing and climbing and harnesses #String is neat

hi Wifi! Take all the time you need!! I enjoy everything you make so I don't mind how much you take with any of what i share :DD honestly it's impressive how you run this place almost daily with so much love poured into it

As for sharing something for MerMay. It's a little basic, but the fisher gets fished? Think of an urban legend, a pretty new one, about a creature so beautiful no words could ever do it justice, a maw in vibrant ruby that could pierce a whole in even the largest ships. As a bounty hunter, this is a new trophy to be claimed.

That is until you see it ya know? *It is* majestic, a beauty undeserving of being hooked away from it's home. But it's also like, unbearably cute? How is such a concept allowed to exist?

Underwater, it's hair is flowing everywhere, demonstrating how illegally soft it is, yet it's that curious, doe eye it's giving from below that's just so... adorable?! Putting up a mean front does nothing really, it just ends with a splash of water to the face. Which honestly isn't as upsetting as it is endearing.

Trying to catch the beast eventually leads to befriending it, since it lets itself get caught (by you and only you) before disappearing the next day, then discovering its a he and his name is Foul Legacy and in a blink of an eye the friendship has moved on to a sort of travel partnership, being asked to dive off your ship every day to swim with him and explore the water🥹 (he'll always keep you safe and oxygenated)

So in the end you didn't get your trophy, inversely, you're his prized catch!!

- mothnip anon

*rubs hands together* luckily i absolutely ADORE this trope, it's basic but so so good

you barely regret letting the creature go, watching it flick its long tail and disappear back into the depths of the sea, leaving you alone on your ship. a flash of dismay runs through you before it suddenly fades. there's a sense of intense satisfaction knowing that the monster will live to see another day, and you turn back to your work with a small smile- you need a few fish for dinner, after all- the sun slowly setting beneath the horizon. it's a calm day, not a cloud in the sky, but there's a small splash behind you, and when you turn there's a small pile of fish on the floor of your boat, still flopping. the tip of a tail disappears back under the water with a small ripple, and your eyes sparkle with cheer at the sight of a massive shadow swimming beneath you

you're never alone when you're sailing after that, the beast constantly following you and getting purposefully tangled in your nets- after a while you just expect that the first "catch" you make will inevitably be the monster. but it chirps and purrs so happily when it sees you and has sparkly fins and its- his- name is Foul Legacy, and you can't deny that you love him. in the early morning, when no one else is around, he'll flop his armored body onto your boat, trilling in delight when you cup his cheeks, fins shivering happily. he'll nudge you and tug on the edges of your clothes, asking you to go swimming with him, and when you agree his crystalline eye shines as bright as the sun. it's the best time to hug you, when both of you are floating in the water- he can wrap his tail around you much easier, bubbles floating from his fanged maw as he chitters and bumps his forehead tenderly against yours

#genshin impact #childe #tartaglia #foul legacy #foul legacy childe #genshin tartagalia #genshin childe #genshin tartaglia #you can tell when it's him in the net because it'll be much heavier than usual #and you just sigh and haul him in #and he chirps innocently from the next with his tail all tangled up #you tell him to stop since the ropes might crush his scales but he just leans up against you and purrrrrrrs #short scenario #other's stuff #good evening #chit chat #mothnip anon #sea monster au #FAVE

We should totally have more jl fics where someone is acting ooc and immediately everyone is trying to determine whether they're an imposter or brainwashed or possessed without making it obvious.

Like, a running joke on the tower. Batman makes a sarcastic joke and flash immediately asks him to blink twice if he's under mind control.

Someone starting a sentence with 'Not to be possessed but -'

People calling off sick by saying 'if I come in today that's not me and you should arrest them' and then dragging themselves in to pick up something they accidentally left and everyone takes the mick by saying stuff like 'this isn't you! I believe in you, you can fight this!' when they're grabbing a hoodie from a chair like har har.

Superhero community slang just in general slipping into their civilian lives. Clark says 'before I start I assure you I have not had my will superseded by mister mind' as an ice breaker at a presentation and gets weird and worried looks all night.

It actually ends up helping on several occasions because it's so very very hard to infiltrate an extremely high risk team and then respond in kind without missing a beat when people casually accuse you of being an imposter because you didn't hold your pen the way you normally do. It'd wreck any controlling consciousness' self esteem XD. They've made several shapeshifters cry.

Also the exasperated sighs when you make a suggestion you normally wouldn't and everyone starts squinting at you looking for anything out of the ordinary.

#Ironically it helps security #Even jokingly assuming everyone around you is an imposter does wonders to stop people leaving passwords on sticky notes #Really given the amount of times people have canonically been possesed/mind controlled/replaced it is an actual issue #They just make light of it because that kind of paranoia isn't a healthy way to live and also it's happened so many times it's lost its bit #Gl comes in like 'wonder woman has been dosed into a berserker rage again lol' and everyone rolls their eyes and #Starts to dig up their emergency ropes and nets because like it's the third time this month come on #Jl character centric fics have a lot of people acting out of character and there's a lot less suspicion of mind control or w/ever than #There should be lmao #Given how often it happens #batman #jla #justice league #superman #dc #dc comics #captain marvel #dc flash #wonder woman #green lantern #bruce wayne #clark kent #One time Martian man hunter does a prank where he pretends to be someone else on the watchtower when they're not in the room #By evening everyone's been sighted in at least two locations at the same time and the jl is whipping themselves into a frenzy before he #Reveals himself and gets food thrown at him in revenge XD

mentally sketching a Lucemond sword fight only Luke has a reinforced harpoon n shield and he’s doing his lil stab stab motions while Aemond parries and it’s all like slice slice slice swoosh jab jab jab swoosh

#lucemond #house of the dragon #aemond targaryen #lucerys valeryon #realistically a harpoon wouldn’t be fantastic vs a sword although it’s basically a barbed spear w a rope #but let me have my little fantasies ok #it will only be so long until mental sketching becomes real sketching #also obvs Luke has knives on him but bringing only a knife to a sword fight is only marginally better than a knife to a gun fight #and a trident is too on the nose imo #so he gets a harpoon and a net and a shield and knives strapped everywhere like a fun little setup #keeping Aemond on his toes

from the background of an issue of punisher 2099: this presumably alchemax-sponsored HAVE YOU SEEN THIS MAN? poster of spider-man with a toll-free number listed on the bottom, as if he were, like, a beloved lost dog, or something, instead of an anticapitalist vigilante

PLEASE Call Animal Control He Escaped Before We Could Harvest Anything <3<3<3 #GOD the difference between how much detail punisher 2099 goes into w/ This Specific Piece of worldbuilding vs. sm2099 is just so funny 2 me #u would expect it to be the other way around considering that migs job is as a geneticist but then he doesnt actually linger too too long yk #but. yknow what. i mean i Do really REALLY enjoy the bits of implied horror that we do have in sm2099 at least it's not like there's nothing

Hmmm, Nox 🤤 all his kinks~ just wanna do it like🐰 what would he do if mc were to tell him "you can have me, as many times as you want but first you have to catch me" and runs away, looking over their shoulder with mischief in their eyes.

Ah, I see what you’re going for, anon, but it might not be exactly what you hoped for because of his particular ✨curse✨. This would only work very early on, before he’d actually care for the MC even a little bit.

He’d be both amused and a little annoyed that the bratty human thinks he needs to chase after anyone for sex, and it could go either way from there. Depending on his mood, he might either let MC run off and not move a muscle to follow… or pin down MC with his shadows to the nearest surface in mere seconds. He’d be really cocky about it too. “You’re mine now, little human!”. He’d make it his mission to fuck MC so thoroughly until the only thing they could think about is the feeling of his cock buried deep inside of them, his cum leaking from all their holes, his presence signed all over their body. He’d make sure that from then on, MC runs to him for more, not away.

MC should also really be more careful with the deals they make since there was no time limit on that offer, and oh, he will come to collect his prize at the most unexpected of times - ‘as many times as he wants’ after all - as a little punishment for the audacity. They could all be having breakfast one day and he'd just sit up and sling MC over his shoulder and offer to take them right there on the table with everyone present if they complain too much. But once their bond happens and the curse is still going strong… not gonna lie, he’d be absolutely terrified of the concept of hunting down MC, even if just pretend, and he’d be convinced MC has an actual death wish. Even after the curse is broken he’d not really be in the mood after being reminded of it.

#Don't taunt Nox if you're not ready to follow through #gotta be careful with the terms & conditions with these faeries #never offer more more than you intend to give #did it stray into dub-con?#a little bit. yes #Mons immortalium #char:nox #Nox is very cagey about his curse #as a side note #Arashi would be the only one to enjoy the actual hunting aspect #not sure if that's a good thing for MC though :)))#a fly caught in the spider's rope net #i mean web

(Start) (Previously) (Next)

CW: imprisonment(?) being tied up at least

Merry heads out an hour earlier for their meetup. Tide was always waiting for them, perhaps he was already there. Merry hopes so; they want to meet him as soon as possible.

Nearing the location, they notice that Tide's missing. With a sigh, they swim the last stretch before letting the full harvest bag slowly drift to the bottom, taking them with it. The mer makes themself comfortable on the kelp bed; now they can only wait.

With nothing to do but observe their surroundings, they notice changes in the kelp beds, scattered around their meeting location. Merry squints at them; they look bumpy. Almost as if-

A large silhouette appears from a far, distracting them from the sea floor. Tide.

He's quick to notice them, looking briefly surprised to see them there so early. When his eyes land on the harvest bag, his expression softens,

"Hey Merry, you don't need to-"

He suddenly freezes, turning his attention to the sea floor.

And the ocean boils with movement as numerous Ocean mers dart out from pockets underneath the kelp beds.

Two of them are in Tide's face before he can even react, emptying pouches of octopus ink. The giant instinctively reels back with a snarl, temporarily blinded. Meanwhile, a different group uses the distraction to swiftly wrap several large nets around his tail; pinning his fins down and throwing his balance off.

Before Merry can yell at them to stop, strong arms wrap around their midsection, pulling them away from the scene. Merry turns their head to protest, only to be stunned into silence. It was Coral. Coral was dragging them to a waiting group of mers further away. Among them was Elder Jewel.

--

Hissing angrily, Tide swipes after the circling mers; the water had cleared enough for him to see again. But the Ocean mers are far too quick for him, he knows this. His panic builds; he needs to get away now or they'll completely ensnare him. With the nets around his tail hindering full movement, he won't be nearly as fast or steady. Tide still attempts to move forward.

The mers acts fast and he gets several jabs to his gills. No blood is drawn, but the prods are hard enough to make him yelp and reflexively bring his arms down to shield them.

Which is exactly what they want.

Another blinding cloud of ink to his face while others are quickly circling him, wrapping thick ropes and more nets around his arms and torso, pinning his crossed limbs to his chest.

He desperately tries to tear the binds apart, but he quickly realizes that they're made by humans. They won't easily tear without the aid of something sharp and he can't position his hands or mouth to them.

Tide feels them pull the nets tigher around his tail; hooking the ends into another. He can't even move his tail anymore.

There's no escape, so he does the only thing he can do in the moment.

He allows his body to sink to the bottom, protecting at the very least his softer belly and gills from further attacks. The Ocean mers are still circling around and above, armed with more pouches of ink and ropes, spears at the ready.

"He's subdued," one of them announces.

He snarls defiantly at them before his eyes lands further ahead of him. A group of Reef mers are gathered at the bottom; observing his capture no doubt. He instantly recognizes one of them, an old mer has their hand on their shoulder. Merry gazes back at him, eyes wide.

Tide feels the all too familiar sting of betrayal.

"You set me up."

#Muppen draws #oc Merry #oc Tide #oc Jewel #oc Coral #Yeah you knew this was coming #Tide was gonna say that they don't need to bring him anymore snacks.#That'd he'd be satisfied with only Merry coming back :)#Boya was having a change of heart but artist said No!!!#We're not taking the easy route!!#Honestly he's been stealing for like two years. The mers are angry with him xDD #So they team up with humans to capture him xD #see the ropes and nets? all human made which is made of Much more durable material than theirs #Oh? Why didnt they do this earlier?#Because Tides been moving around! ;)
