My, you had to look hard to find an actual cow-looking cow within the FF universe!
Slightly unrelated, but seeing Gau just put his theme back in my head. The solo cello version is so good!

Thanks for the link, @claesdevreese.bsky.social ! This is something I will most likely refer to in an upcoming course on the freedom of speech.
Won't have too much fun translating those labels to French, though!

I make my students *re-write* their graded, commented, returned essays: they ignore all directives, dump everything, and create an all-new something, replete with different errors and mistakes.
How do those minds work?

My whole childhood, being afraid of the dark and taking hours to fall asleep. In a perpetual state of hyper-vigilance, pumping cortisol, I would see faces in every corner of my room: monsters, witches, giant insects.

Your Minecraft example resonates. That's how my son (8 at the time) learned you can start a story right at the "perturbation event" (élément déclencheur) to hook in the reader. Funnily enough, he's been writing this way in his short stories, and the teachers are all sorts of amazed...

How about "self diagnosis"? The ability to sense exactly which organ is failing or which process isn't working properly in my own body. Some sort of heightened awareness.
