i’m not sure why, but the scene where lup and barry become liches always gave me like, a wedding vibe. an extremely quiet and small wedding, like they eloped and taako was the only one they wanted to bring along.
it’d be funny if that’s actually how they got married too. Griffin says they probably don’t tell the rest of the crew about the lich thing for a few cycles even, so what if that’s like, a reoccurring thing with them. Lup and Barry making these monumental life choices off on their own and just not telling anyone until years later. It’s just
Davenport: wait, what do you mean you became liches? Back on the magic world? That was three cycles ago!
Lup: guys, has anyone seen my wedding ring, I took it off to cook and I can’t find it Magnus: Lup, why do you have a wedding ring? Lup: uh, me and barry got married like, six cycles ago, that’s why? Did we forget to tell you guys? Magnus: yes you forgot to tell us!
Lucretia: Taako, you’re not bothered at all that lup and barry go off and do these things on their own? Taako: What do you mean on their own? You think I wasn’t there for my sister’s and best friend’s wedding? Or when they ripped their souls out of their still living bodies? what kind of person do you think i am?
The USPS is the fastest, cheapest, and most accurate mail service on the planet last I heard, and is the biggest employer of veterans in the entire country.
On top of that, mail carriers: -have wages that top out at over $30 an hour (and their wages go up in predictable steps based on how long they’ve been with the USPS) -have excellent benefits, including a shit-ton of vacation time, plus a pension, and they can retire after thirty years
But they also have one of the oldest, biggest, strongest unions in the country. That must piss off Republicans so much.
Also, side note: they take zero taxpayer dollars. They’re entirely funded by postage.
(”But I heard they were doing terribly!” They’re not. Congress saddled them with pre-funding their retirement 75 years out to intentionally put them in the red and make them look bad. I’m not joking or exaggerating. There’s tons of info, but here’s the USPS’s own info: https://about.usps.com/who-we-are/financials/annual-reports/fy2010/ar2010_4_002.htm )
Some 200 million years ago in the Triassic of what is now the Gokwe area of Zimbabwe as forest of Woodowrthia and other trees was engulfed in volcanic ash and slowly petrified into varied types of silica as this element was dissolved and remobilised by circulating waters. The piece of log in the photos is 18cm long by 6 across and coloured green by the presence of chromium, while its fossilised bark displays clearly where the tree’s spines once were. At some point in its long journey to the present through geological time, chromium rich waters passed through the buried stone forest and deposited salts, resulting in the deep green tinge that acts as a hygrometer, since it turns greener the more humidity is in the air. Chromium is a common agent of colour in gems, giving us the red of Rubies (http://on.fb.me/1gQbjaj) and the lovely greens of gems such as Emerald, Chrome Tourmaline (http://on.fb.me/1ixYQcu) and Tsavorite Garnet ( http://on.fb.me/1ygBzM5).
NO WONDER HE HAS SUCH A LIMITED WARDROBE, MIC PROBABLY BURNED THE REST BC THEY WERE SO TERRIBLE AND COVERED IN CATS
HE’S ADORABLE
knowing mic, he encouraged aizawa to buy this. nemuri on the other hand is the only one of them who knows how to dress like a somewhat normal human being
LOOK MIDNIGHT WENT HEROING WITH HER TIDDIES OUT AND CAUSED A NEW LAW FOR MORE CONSERVATIVE HERO OUTFITS TO BE MADE, I REALLY DON’T THINK SHE’S THE BEST PERSON TO ASK FOR FASHION ADVICE HERE
MIC MAY BE A DISASTER BUT AT LEAST HE’S A FASHIONABLE DISASTER OUTSIDE OF HIS HERO CLOTHES
god i love the implications of this whole damn post b/c of course the standard conception is that aizawa is the tired friend that kinda keeps this loud dumbass friend of his in check right, that mic isn’t the 5/5 for intelligence that he is and is the Loud Naruto to aizawa being the quiet, marginally more put together teacher
but NO. NO THAT’S NOt HOW IT IS AT ALL
AIZAWA is the utter disaster dumbass with his SHIT TASTE and MIC IS THE FRIEND OFF TO THE SIDE LIKE
“no. no i am your Friend i am Not letting your insult yourself like thi—NO YOU PUT THAT THING DOWN YOU AREN’T WEARING THAT—WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU HOLDINg IN YOUR HANDS—”
The Evil Within’s Shade easter egg is amazing. Skip to 0:45 seconds if you want the payoff.
edit: To get this to work you gotta hit the vending machine about 15 times then run over to the poster and it will fall to the ground revealing the peep hole. Chapter 3 of The Consequence DLC.
