There Are Few Situations In Life That Cannot Be At Least Marginally Improved By Introducing A Stew

My mind is full of bio-luminescent cuttlefish displays, retractable teeth, gills gills gills, that one scene from The Sea Beast. The brain is very loud and it’s having lots of thoughts.

Ok so some bit ago I learned that why humans fingers and palms prune up in water is to get a better grip in water

What if aliens don’t have that funky little feature?

So imagine a human and their alien group are trapped in a little area and there’s a bunch of water and it’s rising (absolutely terrifying experience) and the aliens are trying to get a grip on the kinda rough wall and can’t but they look at the human and are shocked because they’re clinging to the wall like a spider

So ima say they get out safely and they update the human guide/manual

“Humans gain sticky hands in water”

Hizashi: "I don't think we can mansplain, manipulate, or manwhore our way out of this one."

Aizawa: "Manslaughter it is, then."

Hizashi: "NO-"

Came home a little early

I decided to colour this one.

I had a dream I was given a tiny, helpless little creature. It was black and soft and not quite a cat but not quite anything else either.

I was told it was going to die so nobody else wanted to feel the pain of caring for it, but when I held it I was filled with love and the need to protect it.

I knew it was going to die soon, so I just held it close and walked as far as I could, showing it every beautiful thing I could find as I waited for the inevitable

I found myself starting to wonder if it really would die. It seemed to be just the slightest bit stronger, the further we went. It had become curious of its surroundings and would raise its head to look around, eyes full of wonder. When it settled back into my arms it had the look of contentment rather than exhaustion.

I thought, maybe if I keep showing it new things, if I keep loving it, perhaps it will survive.

And then I woke up.

MY ULTIMATE BELOVEDS

Are you trying to kill your mother? Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023)

“Babyyyyyyy!”

Aliens witness humans going “Babyyyy” when they see other animals and mistakenly believe that humans are liable to believe ANYTHING is a member of their young if it acts/appears similar enough; this has resulted in MULTIPLE cases where aliens leave their children at human orphanages instead of on their own world because of humanity’s pack bonding ability and it becomes some huge scandal where aliens are like.

“Manipulating them into taking care of our own young is immoral”

and

“Have you seen humanity? The moment they figure out what we’re doing, they’re freak out and go on a murder spree!”

Meanwhile, humanity is just like ‘sweet, we’re taking care of alien kids… we can handle this :)’

Bonus points if a human brings something like a puppy on board a ship and call it by saying ‘babyyyy!~’ and, despite knowing that it is DEFINITELY not a human infant, they try to treat it as such despite the fact that it is not a human.

Humanity appreciates this.
