βAfter witnessing the fall of an anchor reaping a sharkβs life, this little witch apprentice decided to revive him as a magical familiar. The anchor has been in its interior ever since, along with its little fish companions.β
Some more of Ahsoka and Enfys - just hanging out after the battle
What do I have to do to see Ahsoka get flustered over a girl for a change
okay, skeletons have xylophones, demons have fiddles, ghosts have theremins and vampires have pipe organs. but what of the humble werewolf? what instrument does she get for her very own?
Werewolves are vocalists. What instrument could rival her beautiful howl?
Theyβre in a band together

some others i found in the notes
Despite approximately 200,000 years of evolution, humans are still completely vulnerable while they sleep and lack any sort of defensive mechanism.
The defense mechanism is community you self centered prick
First line of defense. Its a fucking wall. While these particular designs are new, controlling access to the space by reducing the number of ingress points has served human (hominids, really) well for a couple million years or so, ever since we found caves and said βHey, this is pretty neat.β
Second line of defense. Sheβs an older model, but weβve been using the same technology for at least 30,000 years, and itβs still reliable. With better senses of hearing and smell, they are able to track and identify interlopers before humans can. They are also snuggly.
After that, we have our third line of defense, which is other people.
iβm begging you please finish painting the wall.

"Elusive inhabitant of humid tropical lowlands and foothills from Veracruz to Honduras. Walks jerkily like a small chicken (not like a thrush) on the shady forest floor, holding its tail cocked and tossing leaves with its bill. Can be very difficult to see. Listen for distinctive loud series of piping whistles that drops in pitch."
