Dormitory Activities with the Strega cast
Been brainstorming a bit how the Protagonist (MC mainly) would hang out with the three and what stats they would gain from such (this is a rough draft and therefore kinda messy all-around)
I don't have too many ideas atm, but I'd like to say with Chidori their activities can range from her having MC pose for her drawing or the two would color in their activity books together (gains item?). Second option maybe have the two watch an art documentary?? (gains Charm)
In the case of Jin they may play computer games together, with Jin has his own laptop and MC would use the shared computer in this case? (so +Academics for learning new strategies with him). Second activity maybe cooking (food item).
For Takaya they'll do some reading either Shakespeare or romantic novels (gain Charm), and their second activity will be tending to plants.
--
If anyone wants to chip in, feel free to!

D&D Characters 2
Last time, I talked about the first D&D character I ever played. This time, I'll talk about one of my more recent characters.
This one is a Loxodon War Domain Cleric I named Convoy. I pulled from several places of inspiration for him. The name came from the Japanese name for the Transformers character Optimus Prime, one of my favorite fictional characters (a post for another day). Funny thing is that I discovered that "Con Voi" was Vietnamese for elephant, which I thought was wild. I made his height 7'5", and his weight 520 lbs, which were the billed height and weight for Andre the Giant, my all time favorite pro wrestler. Since I rolled a 7 for Charisma, I gave him a very grouchy attitude. I went for a "kind but not nice" approach. He will help and heal his allies without hesitation, but he will give you absolute shit about getting hurt or in trouble in the first place.
Backstory was a simple one, since I was unfamiliar with the game world we were in. He was a military officer and healer in a big war. After the war was finished, he becomes help for hire, and ends up with a crew for special assignments. Didn't bother with family or a complex past. I keep telling myself that I'd read up on that world and flesh him out more at some point.
I rather enjoy playing him. He is actually the first spellcaster I've ever played, so I'm learning a lot more about that. It is also the first time I've been in a party with no human characters. We have a Shifter Barbarian, a Warforged Druid, a Tortle Artificer, and a Halfling Bard (or maybe a Gnome, can't recall). It is certainly an experience.

Social Activities for People with Disabilities
Social activities play a vital role in enhancing the lives of people with disabilities and unlocking their potential. They offer an opportunity to socialise, build skills and develop relationships.
The NDIS supports these activities through its Community Participation Supports. Getting started can feel daunting but with the right guidance, you can embark on a journey of inclusion and personal growth.
Getting started
NDIS participants can access a variety of group activities through registered providers like Caremile. These activities promote social inclusion, provide skillbuilding opportunities, and boost overall well-being. They also help participants develop meaningful relationships and build networks of support in their local community.
The NDIS provides funding for group and centre activities under the Core Supports and Capacity Building Supports categories. However, every participant’s plan goal must determine their eligibility before they can participate in these services. Moreover, they should consult with their short term accommodation providers to find out if their accommodation costs are covered by this category of NDIS support.
Participating in community NDIS social activities is a crucial way to reduce isolation and boost self-confidence. These activities are also a great way to learn new skills and make friends. To get started, check out local disability expos to meet providers and explore their services. Alternatively, you can contact your NDIS provider directly and ask them to introduce you to other participants who share similar interests.
Finding the right support worker
The right support worker can make a world of difference when it comes to your social and community activities. It is important to choose a worker who shares your interests, is reliable and has experience working with people with disability. It is also a good idea to find out about their qualifications and hobbies. It is a good idea to interview potential support workers by phone or in person. It is also helpful to write down what you are looking for in a worker. This can help you avoid future misunderstandings.
It is a good idea to talk to your local area coordinator, NDIS planner, psychosocial recovery coach or service providers for recommendations. You can also ask friends and family for recommendations. You can also try to attend events that are designed specifically for NDIS participants to meet potential support workers. These events often take place in local communities and can be a great way to meet potential support workers.
Accessibility needs
NDIS participants are eligible for supports that assist them in participating in community activities and events. These can be found under the social skill activities and Recreational Support Operational Guideline. However, these services must be reasonable and necessary in order to be included in a participant’s NDIS plan.
Participating in social activities is an important part of life for people with disabilities, and can help them improve their overall well-being. It can also promote social connection and skill development, and foster community engagement. As a leading provider of NDIS group activities, CareMile can provide participants with engaging and person-centered activities that cater to their specific needs.
Getting involved in social activities is a great way to build self-confidence and learn new skills. Moreover, it can also help individuals build stronger relationships and develop their independence. Regardless of the type of disability, social and recreational activities can have a positive impact on an individual’s life. To learn more about this type of support, visit the NDIS website or talk to your provider.
Funding
Social skills activities help people with disability develop and nurture important relationships and networks of support within their communities, which can increase feelings of safety and belonging. They can also provide a sense of purpose, boost confidence and encourage new interests.
As an NDIS registered service provider, CaRelief offers a wide range of NDIS approved group activities that are designed to meet the specific needs of participants. These include recreational and educational pursuits such as art classes and sports, which allow participants to socialise in a small group setting outside of their home environment.
NDIS participants can access funding for group and centre activities through their
Core Supports budget. This includes the support category called “Assistance with Social and Community Participation”. This is a flexibly funded item, which means it can be used to pay for the costs associated with these activities, as long as they are reasonable and necessary. This may include things such as transport costs to and from an activity, communication supports (such as Auslan or interpreting) and a support worker to accompany the participant.

the thing about art is that it was always supposed to be about us, about the human-ness of us, the impossible and beautiful reality that we (for centuries) have stood still, transfixed by music. that we can close our eyes and cry about the same book passage; the events of which aren't real and never happened. theatre in shakespeare's time was as real as it is now; we all laugh at the same cue (pursued by bear), separated hundreds of years apart.
three years ago my housemates were jamming outdoors, just messing around with their instruments, mostly just making noise. our neighbors - shy, cautious, a little sheepish - sat down and started playing. i don't really know how it happened; i was somehow in charge of dancing, barefoot and laughing - but i looked up, and our yard was full of people. kids stacked on the shoulders of parents. old couples holding hands. someone had brought sidewalk chalk; our front walk became a riot of color. someone ran in with a flute and played the most astounding solo i've ever heard in my life, upright and wiggling, skipping as she did so. she only paused because the violin player was kicking his heels up and she was laughing too hard to continue.
two weeks ago my friend and i met in the basement of her apartment complex so she could work out a piece of choreography. we have a language barrier - i'm not as good at ASL as i'd like to be (i'm still learning!) so we communicate mostly through the notes app and this strange secret language of dancers - we have the same movement vocabulary. the two of us cracking jokes at each other, giggling. there were kids in the basement too, who had been playing soccer until we took up the far corner of the room. one by one they made their slow way over like feral cats - they laid down, belly-flat against the floor, just watching. my friend and i were not in tutus - we were in slouchy shirts and leggings and socks. nothing fancy. but when i asked the kids would you like to dance too? they were immediately on their feet and spinning. i love when people dance with abandon, the wild and leggy fervor of childhood. i think it is gorgeous.
their adults showed up eventually, and a few of them said hey, let's not bother the nice ladies. but they weren't bothering us, they were just having fun - so. a few of the adults started dancing awkwardly along, and then most of the adults. someone brought down a better sound system. someone opened a watermelon and started handing out slices. it was 8 PM on a tuesday and nothing about that day was particularly special; we might as well party.
one time i hosted a free "paint along party" and about 20 adults worked quietly while i taught them how to paint nessie. one time i taught community dance classes and so many people showed up we had to move the whole thing outside. we used chairs and coatracks to balance. one time i showed up to a random band playing in a random location, and the whole thing got packed so quickly we had to open every door and window in the place.
i don't think i can tell you how much people want to be making art and engaging with art. they want to, desperately. so many people would be stunning artists, but they are lied to and told from a very young age that art only matters if it is planned, purposeful, beautiful. that if you have an idea, you need to be able to express it perfectly. this is not true. you don't get only 1 chance to communicate. you can spend a lifetime trying to display exactly 1 thing you can never quite language. you can just express the "!!??!!!"-ing-ness of being alive; that is something none of us really have a full grasp on creating. and even when we can't make what we want - god, it feels fucking good to try. and even just enjoying other artists - art inherently rewards the act of participating.
i wasn't raised wealthy. whenever i make a post about art, someone inevitably says something along the lines of well some of us aren't that lucky. i am not lucky; i am dedicated. i have a chronic condition, my hands are constantly in pain. i am not neurotypical, nor was i raised safe. i worked 5-7 jobs while some of these memories happened. i chose art because it mattered to me more than anything on this fucking planet - i would work 80 hours a week just so i could afford to write in 3 of them.
and i am still telling you - if you are called to make art, you are called to the part of you that is human. you do not have to be good at it. you do not have to have enormous amounts of privilege. you can just... give yourself permission. you can just say i'm going to make something now and then - go out and make it. raquel it won't be good though that is okay, i don't make good things every time either. besides. who decides what good even is?
you weren't called to make something because you wanted it to be good, you were called to make something because it is a basic instinct. you were taught to judge its worth and over-value perfection. you are doing something impossible. a god's ability: from nothing springs creation.
a few months ago i found a piece of sidewalk chalk and started drawing. within an hour i had somehow collected a small classroom of young children. their adults often brought their own chalk. i looked up and about fifteen families had joined me from around the block. we drew scrangly unicorns and messed up flowers and one girl asked me to draw charizard. i am not good at drawing. i basically drew an orb with wings. you would have thought i drew her the mona lisa. she dragged her mother over and pointed and said look! look what she drew for me and, in the moment, i admit i flinched (sorry, i don't -). but the mother just grinned at me. he's beautiful. and then she sat down and started drawing.
someone took a picture of it. it was in the local newspaper. the summary underneath said joyful and spontaneous artwork from local artists springs up in public gallery. in the picture, a little girl covered in chalk dust has her head thrown back, delighted. laughing.
#writeblr#warm up#this is longer than i wanted i really considered removing that part about myself and what i went thru#but i think it really fucking bothers me that EVERY time i talk about being an artist#ppl assume i just like. had the skill and ability to drop everything and pay for grad school.#like sir i grew up poor. my house wasn't a safe space. i gave up a FREE RIDE TO LAW SCHOOL. for THIS. bc i chose it.#was it fucking hard? was i choosing the hard thing?? yes.#but we need to stop seeing artists as lazy layabouts that can ''afford'' to just ''sit around and create''#when MANY - if not MOST - of us are NOT like that. we have to work our fucking ASSES off. hard work. long and hard work#part of valuing artists is recognizing the amount we sacrifice to make our art. bc it doesn't just#like HAPPEN to us. also btw it rarely has anything to do with true talent.#speaking as someone with a chronic condition i hate when ppl are like u have it easy. like actively as i'm writing this my hands r#ACTIVELY hurting me. i haven't been posting bc my left hand was curled in a claw for the last week#this isn't fucking luck. after a certain point it's not even TALENT. it's dedication & sacrifice.#''u get to flounce around and do nothing with ur life'' is a narrative that is a direct result of capitalism#imagine if we said that about literally any other profession.#''oh so u give up 10 yrs of ur life to be a doctor? u sacrifice having a social life and u get SUPER in debt?#u need to work countless hours and it will often be thankless? well i wish i was that lucky''#we should be applying that logic to landlords ONLY#''oh ur mom and dad gave u the money to buy a house? and all u did was paint it white and rent it? huh.''

Art therapy is a technique utilized by care professionals and caregivers to enhance the well-being of individuals with dementia. Engaging in painting, sketching, and similar artistic activities enables individuals with dementia to explore their emotions, foster self-awareness, reconcile emotional conflicts, and improve their orientation in reality.

*carefully picks you up and peeks into your conch snail shell*
Ehm... Sorry to bother, but... Could we, maybe, possibly... see Vasco's wife and her lover pictured by your hand? Sorry again, thank you for listening. Take care.
*delicately lays you back into the water to prevent any stress or dehydration*
Unfortunately I don't have her lover figured out yet, but I think Ludovica looks something like this:
#own art#own characters#CanisAlbus#Ludovica#vertopus#Vaschete lore#I may still tweak the markings this isn't 100% guaranteed final design#might make her colors a bit more reddish perhaps#but you know this is the general vibe#she was originally inspired by brittany spaniels and one of my old unused characters#to be fair the whole thing was built around the idea that she should have strong eyebrows and green theme color#again jury is still out on the renaissance hairstyle/head piece I'll try to come up with something#still trying to get a good grasp of the girlfriend too#she's most likely her lady-in-waiting or other court companion#essentially a woman of high social class whose job is to accompany a noblewoman and assist her on her daily activities#a best friend more or less#conch snail hours#she will kick anyone's ass. she will kick your ass. she will kick your dog's ass. she will kick her own ass.
