Everyday Dæmon Things

curling up for an afternoon nap with your dæmon on your face to block the light

going for an early morning jog with your dæmon trailing behind, complaining about the early hour (or running ahead shouting encouragement)

arguing with your dæmon over ingredients in a new recipe (and they’re right, of course)

your and your best friend’s dæmons wrestling in the mud on a rainy day

your dæmon helping with chores around the house

you and your dæmon worrying over your new haircut on the way to school/work

Once I change, you’ll stop changing. What do you think you’ll be? A flea, I hope.

PANTALAIMON + favorite forms (S1-S2)

Large Daemons (Golden Compass)

I wonder how people with larger Daemons get around in everyday life. Anyone want to consider the possibilities with me? I’m talking things horse sized and above. I imagine some aspects of life (walking through a university with many rooms, for example,) might be hard. What /is/ the distance limit a daemon can be from it’s owner?  I imagine some people could become drivers for horse carts and such if their daemons were horses. Or could they? would a horse daemon pull a cart? would the crush of people make it too risky for an accidental brush against someone?

Some reasons I wish Pan was corporeal:

Cuddles!!! I honestly wish I could hug him, because sometimes stuff happens and you just need a hug from your dæ.

Smuggling food upstairs! Because Pan is such a fluffy dude, we can hide biscuits and stuff in his fur and nobody could see them! They would have to be some tiny ass biscuits. Tiny biscuits are better than no biscuits at all! Your valiant optimism confuses me 😂

Hearing his actual voice for real! In my head he’s just a vague sort of fuzzy voice, but I want to actually hear him clearlyyy

Talking out loud to him without people thinking I’m weird! This one is pretty self explanatory

H a l l o w e e n. I want to make Pan a tiny witches hat and then he could wear it! Also he could have his own little teeny sweet bucket for when we go out trick or treating (yes we still go trick or treating idk why people stop because it’s “not cool” it’s literally free sweets), and he could fill it with smarties or something! Smarties are my favourites! Pan you can’t eat food?? You can’t eat outfits but you still have favourite pyjamas. ...touché...

There are waaaay more but this is all I’ll write for now :)

Love, Pan and Rhia xxx❤️

Duh... I made a wallpaper of Kleytos and me and... We really like it. (The first one is the original).

Lyra, almost every scene: WE GOTTA FIND ROGER!!

Mrs. Coulter:

Panserbjørne

Do they have a class system or some type of rankings?

Do they have oral traditions?

Do they have religion?

What kind of laws do they have?

How different are the roles that male and female bears play in their society?

Has there ever been a ruling queen? Or is Svalbard a patrilineal monarchy?

At what age do Panserbjørne make their sky-iron armour?

There's a palace in Svalbard, are there anymore buildings that the bears use for themselves?

Evolution Series: A Series of Sirenians

Sirenians, or sea cows, are very unique animals. Related to elephants and hyraxes but originating in the Americas, they are the only fully herbivore aquatic mammals and live in both freshwater and salwater habitats.

*The animals represented here are not to scale and don’t represent a direct line of descent, but rather plausible models for how this amazing transition happened.*

Birthday Aniquotes

It’s been awhile since I posted about this, so I thought I’d remind everyone that this is a thing I’m still doing! If you are following me, you can send me an ask or message telling me when your birthday is, and the quote I post on that day will be specially picked for you. 

I can’t promise specific quotes because I want to avoid a lot of repeats, but give me a few requests (characters, books, themes, ships, etc.) and I’ll match at least one of them, more if I can.

I will tag you in the post and wish you a happy birthday, but if you’d rather I didn’t, just let me know! Note: I have occasionally had trouble getting the tags to work, so my sincere apologies if that happens (and if anyone has any suggestions for fixing that problem, I’m all ears).

I originally committed to keeping this up through September 2021, but the demand hasn’t been overwhelming and I’m really enjoying it, so I think I’m going to keep it up indefinitely.

There are no deadlines - you can send me a request any time, but don’t wait until the day of or day before your birthday or I might not see it in time.

There’s also no limit: if you already sent a request this past year, and you want to do it again for your next birthday, that is totally fine!

I will respond to all asks and messages to let you know you’re on the list, so if you don’t hear back from me within 48 hours, try again to make sure I’ve gotten it.

I’ll be reblogging this post periodically as a reminder. I cannot stress enough how much enjoyment I’ve been getting out of this project, so keep ‘em coming!

Captain Marvel didn’t kill Thanos because it wasn’t her place.

Captain Marvel could have killed Thanos if she needed to.

Captain Marvel saved everyone’s lives when she destroyed Thanos’ ship.

Captain Marvel is not overpowered.

The entire point of a superhero, is that they are powerful enough to defeat the villain. Otherwise there’s no winning.

Captain Marvel is stronger than Thanos.

No one is stronger than the Infinity Stones. Captain Marvel is not stronger than Thanos when he’s using the Infinity Stones.

Captain Marvel is not weak.

Nobody could’ve taken a punch from the Power Stone. The impact might have even killed a regular human.

Captain Marvel is not useless. She saved everyone’s lives.

Thor, Scarlet Witch, Hulk and Dr Strange most probably could have destroyed Thanos’ ship. But they didn’t. So they needed Captain Marvel.

Captain Marvel didn’t have much screentime in Endgame because the film was a tribute to the original 6.

Captain Marvel had about the same amount of screentime as Spiderman and Black Panther. All three are the new faces of the Avengers.

Captain Marvel (film) did not have the same target audience as the other Marvel films. It was aimed at women and girls. If you’re not a woman or a girl, you have a higher chance of not liking it, because it wasn’t made to please you.

Your hate comments don’t change anything about the film or the character and probably don’t affect Brie Larson the way you want them to.

Film success is based off of money. Captain Marvel made a billion dollars. No one cares about your opinion.

If you found Carol Danvers bland, it’s probably because she doesn’t know who she is for half the film and then doesn’t have time to process what she’s been told about herself for the rest of the film.

We’ll probably see character development as Marvel progresses. Like what happens in every series ever.

I’m sorry to break it to you, but Captain Marvel WILL be in future Marvel films. If you don’t like her, don’t watch them. It’s not hard.

Captain Marvel is not arrogant. Or at least, not any more so than Iron Man and Thor. Why is it okay for them to be arrogant, but not her?

Brie Larson is one of the sweetest human beings in the world. She’s kind and thoughtful and determined to spread goodness.

Brie Larson never said she hated men. She only said she wishes women and people of colour got more opportunities, you know, because white men get more opportunities than anyone else.

The Avengers cast do not hate Brie Larson. Or, maybe they do. How can you tell? Do you personally know the actors well enough to know how they are around someone they dislike? Has anyone publicly stated that they hate her?

To those who said she should be more sexy, believe it or not, women do not exist for the pleasure of men. Her suit is practical. Brie Larson is a human being, you don’t get to treat her like anything less.

Captain Marvel is not Captain America’s replacement. They are different characters with different motivations, purposes, morals, powers, etc.

Every single Avenger would kick your ass for hating Captain Marvel. Every single Avenger would probably heartily agree that she is the most powerful Avenger, and only joke about disagreeing.

Chris Hemsworth has said that Thor is the strongest Avenger. No one called him out on it.

To those who said she should smile more, your sexism is showing.

To those who think Captain Marvel spreads the idea that stealing is okay, where was this energy for Scott Lang?

If you didn’t like the film, don’t watch it. Don’t comment on things about it, just scroll. It isn’t rocket science to ignore something you dislike. In fact, you look like a fool for choosing to write your hateful comment. You’re bringing negativity into your own life by commenting.
