Chat I Am So Normal About This

🦴 Here you go guys, photos of my skeleton (Cat. Cat's skeleton, not mine, lmao) and a couple of fun facts about the process of skeleton-making and animal anatomy 🦴

I put them under the cut just in case some of yall are sensitive and don't want to see it 👇

Felis catus or domestic cat

He was a male british shorthair, a bit fat but not obese. I don't quite remember if we concluded the cause of death during autopsy but the dissection was informative (I'd post the photos but I'm afraid it would be too much 😬)

So here's a photo of mid-process assembling:

We used wires and instant glue. Gotta be careful with this stuff cuz it sticks to your fingers like crazy (and yes, there's a cow leg lying around in the background).

The one who was assembling was yours truly and I wasted SO MUCH TIME looking at the anatomy textbook to set the pose and limbs properly, but in the end it paid off. Our curator said that it was the most anatomically accurate cat posture out of all cat skeletons our uni museum had (yippee!)

(Also notice how gray the skeleton is compared to the previous photos. That's because when removing meat from the bones, we boil them and they tend to go gray, so in the final stage the skeleton needs to be whitened in hydrogen peroxide)

If you look closely at the skull you might notice that the jaws are not aligned properly — that's because my groupmate glued them the wrong way :p You need to be VERY precise in how you glue stuff, it doesn't separate easy afterwards.

Now see these two small bones right here? They are the collarbones. Fun fact about them is that cats and many other animals either have them reduced in size or don't have them at all! It depends on the species, but the main purpose of their absence is to help animals' front paws move more freely. In case of cats — to be more agile while climbing trees, fitting through small holes or walking on thin surfaces.

So naturally, these tiny bones just... reside in the muscle, not connected to literally anything.

And in this case our skeleton, I dare say, is very special, because, unlike the ones in the museum, it has collarbones in display. While removing the meat we (well, I) decided to not get rid of them and instead come up with a way to somehow include them in the final product. I came up with the idea of gluing them to transparent poles made of UV-curing glue. And as you can see, it worked pretty well 😄

All in all, it was a complicated, long but fun and very interesting process (nothing like my mute swan skeleton). This kitty-cat is gonna live forever in our museum as a display of hard work and dedication 🩷

And some interaction doodles!

GSP often visits- wait no that's not the right one. Uh... Oh! Yeah. GSP often gets SENT to the clinic due to Lucian finding him passed out. Why? Caffeine! Being on shift for long hours always give him the urge to drink coffee + he's a huge workaholic! And not the good type. He's been like this since before and after the brainwash. Habits never change amirite?

It's only after a few weeks of working did he find out about another worker in the same department as him besides Lucian, and that's Harley! His first reaction? "They've got a child in here??" Honestly, reasonable. I'd be like that too.

Nicknack sometimes gets requests for.. An ungodly amount of coffee. When she does arrive at the CCTV room all she'll see is GSP on the floor with a bunch of coffee around him littering the room. This doesn't always happen tho! It's only sometimes. GSP will have the motivation to get the coffee himself but sometimes laziness just hits y'know? Since she sends some coffee to him from time to time it's either Lucian carrying him to the clinic or Nicknack reporting.

Anyways I'm done teehee if ya wanna see Wr3n doodle just look in reblogs 💜

.

BOO! FACE REVEAL! (⁠´⁠⊙⁠ω⁠⊙⁠`⁠)⁠！(⁠ﾉ⁠*⁠0⁠*⁠)⁠ﾉ (⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠)!

"Damn, it's flipping wimdy frozing out there" — I says while frost envelops my face and everything around me 😐

But yah, that's how I look. Partially. (Cuz I don't really like my face lmao-)

🌹He's ready for the date🌹

Anyway, on a side note, I've decided to start posting my art on my tiktok. It'll be mostly short videos and art whilst my youtube channel will be for more self-indulgent and bigger videos

Upd: I dunno if I should tag @/scimagic cus it is a 'Puzzles in different outfits' trend, but I don't wanna bother her ┐⁠(⁠‘⁠～⁠`⁠;⁠)⁠┌

RTV Tour | Nira Cake PoV

Part 1 Part 2 Part 3

@rtv-puzzlevision-studios

I've downed some coffee, read some people's parts and felt a bit more alive to write something and even tag some people ^^

(to those who I tagged - feel free to DM me and interact in some way, if you want :) /nf

(« " " » -> thoughts)

(« — » -> speech)

As everyone proceed to the next department, the little white squirrel followed the crowd, as usual, in the back.

Miss Cake was grateful that, by some miracle, noone seemed to get hurt by the stairs. Well, at least badly. Some seemed to trip but otherwise looked okay.

She curiously glanced around the crowd.

"So many unique people here..." — she thought.

As she observed the crowd, she noticed a white and purple-blue person, keeping to themselves but looking around with excitement too.

( @alelathedragon )

"Ah, it's them again". Seeing how they were alone and still didn't interact with anyone, the little squirrel felt a sense of familiarity. In a way, she was, herself, a social ghost in some sense. Always among the crowd, but never standing out. Well, at least she was having fun without bothering anyone. "... Should I talk to them?" — she tilted her head.

At some point Nira noticed her Boss vanishing somewhere and reappearing with a familiar little tv-headed creature. Ah, Animsay, was it? The head of the.... Ah, Social Media Department, right! Man, she really ought to memorise some of the important people who worked here, heh (⁠´⁠-⁠﹏⁠-⁠`⁠；⁠).

When everyone arrived at the Film department Nira suddenly noticed someone tripping at the last step of yet another, but less deadly flight of stairs.

( @leirom71000 )

She quickly moved to help them but noticed that the blonde girl got up, dusted herself off and overall seemed fine. The squirrel sighed with relief. She decided to continue on with the crowd. But maybe she should check on the girl, just in case.

Because Nira rarely got out of her Health Department office, she was kind of participating in the tour too, listening to Boss and the crew, taking in the information with interest.

When the crew members were done introducing themselves and and the crowd dispersed in various directions, Nira decided to briefly go to the kitchen and fill up her small water bottle that she always kept at herself.

As she entered the kitchen she saw a familiar figure with horns and striking red ribbons around.

( @grinnames )

Grinnames, as she remembered. That one weird gal. The one that wanted to....eat...the fanmail...? Okay, nevermind. Weird. But funny, in some way.

As the healthcare employee moved to the kitchen counter and proceeded to fill up her bottle, she observed Grinnames putting something in the crew's fridge-... Wait- was that even allowed?? Huh??

She wanted to stop her and ask what she was doing, but anxiety got better of her. Oh well. The white squirrel finished with her bottle and moved to head out of the kitchen, thinking on her way about how many people with food poisoning she would possibly get in her office soon...

At some point while walking, she daydreamed about what if the tour visited her department. Well, It's remote and not that interesting. But the office she worked at was nicely decorated, with hung-up stars and posters and even some plushies around. The majority of employees who visited her office said they liked the place. It brought a sense of whimsy and piece to them, which Nira was only happy to hear.

Suddenly, something snapped her out of her thoughts.

Her medic senses were tingling...

Quickly looking around, she noticed a familiar figure that caught her attention .

( @runrabitrunrunrun )

It was the delivery girl. She seemed to storm off in the side of the crowd. But something felt off...

A concerned expression fell on her face. Looking around the crowd, she thought of what to do... Leave her post? She anxiously thought to herself. "You know what? No!" Screw it, her job was to make sure everyone on the tour was alright, even the employees, and like heck she was going to ignore someone suffering!

Swiftly, Nira moved through the crowd, silently and unnoticed, smoothly avoiding people and keeping track of Nick's directions.

For a moment she lost sight of her. Nira worriedly looked around and then saw the bathroom door.

She approached it slowly, carefully twisting the handle. Locked.

"Well, crap. What to do, what to do..."

She looked around when a glint of metal up ahead caught her eye. The ventilation shaft.

"A-ha!" — with a silent triumph the squirrel climbed up the shaft and expertly moved through it.

There was a thumping sound inside the bathroom before something fell Infront of Nicknack with a loud CLANK and thud.

Before the girl with a heart-shaped eye patch sat a white squirrel, holding onto her head and huffing from dust. Her eyes noticed Nick, sitting at the floor and gripping her legs tightly. Awkward silence followed.

—Uhhh... Hi! Are you...okay? — the squirrel asked timidly with a tentative smile, hand behind her head still.

She is ready to offer her help. What would happen next?

And that's the part! Again, if you want to interact with Nira - feel free to comment/tag/DM!

(not forcing tho! :)

Oh, yes, black & white is totally fine! In fact, I don't even have a colour palette for my sona ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯ She's just that — black and white paper doodle, sfhghfsj

"Puzzlevisions' open day... A tour... blah blah blah... A uniform required..."
