Outside of the obvious "hating injustice or general shittiness," bringing up Alan's great-grandfather, a famous pirate, is a fast way to piss him off, manifesting as him being even snippier than usual 😅. Sven cries when he's angry, Colin is cold, and Valtra curses excessively.

What makes your character angry?

Are there specific people, circumstances, actions, or words that cause them to lose their temper?

What does losing their temper tend to look like?

I just learned about Pelorus Jack, the Risso's dolphin, who guided ships through the Cook Strait for 24 years in the late 1800s, and I'm kinda obsessed now...

Triple Strike is PG-13 but there are a few hints that Alan and Sven are into bdsm haha. Specifically they like role playing "kidnapped inspector and cruel pirate captain" (emphasis on bondage and flogging), and you can bet your bottom dollar Alan does sometimes wonder What It Says About Him.
In the spirit of kink positivity--what kinks do everyone's characters have (if this is something your characters have)?

*Important note: Ace people and characters can and do also have kinks!

I need to remember every recipe lies about how long it takes to caramelize onions, so I'm not up till 1 in the morning making French onion soup, but I guess the upside is I can eat so much French onion soup today.

#Novmemeber Day 11

Alan takes pride in being compared to a bloodhound but a mule also fits. He’s smart, hardworking, repays kindnesses twofold, but he also has a stubborn, petty streak irrespective of danger. Sven is some flavor of mustelid.

Expected to like Frankenstein but found it meh in practice >_<. Also thought I wouldn’t notice the “Netflix look” but yeah, the lighting and CGI is vaguely off putting and the cinematography was like a handful of compelling shots amid…meh 😔.

Realizing I'm a fool for making the pyrean home planet tidally locked. There are probably seasons, but they'd be much smaller in terms of changes. Also they live on a ship so I can't make seasonal art of them wearing cute warm clothes and such 😩.

I mean, I can, and I should, but...I'm a fool.
