Introducing Bertie from next-door, at our current housesit here in a small village in the #UK After some consultation with Bertie, we have concluded that his favourite hobbies include: 1. Peering over the fence to have deep and meaningful conversations with our temporary #cat overlords Miss Smudge and Madame Harriet about his collection of squeaky toys. They, in turn, tell him about the extra breakfasts that they've been deprived of. Sometimes they also let him huff their butts, which makes all parties strangely happy. 2. Demonstrating the working of his squeaky toys to his two rabbit friends, who (for some strange reason) frequently find an excuse to then jump the fence into our yard to nibble the lettuce. This lack of squeaky toy excitement from them would be alarming, but he knows he'll convert them to his way of thinking in the end! 3. Digging holes for his squeaky toys to live in, then looking confused when no one appreciates his thoughtfulness. Again, he believes he just needs to dig more holes to convince people of the merit of his activities. 4. Tail wagging so hard that he sometimes has to bark at his own tail to tell it to stop. It doesn't stop. He is, without a doubt a Good Boy and deserves many pats. #dogs #cats image
Cosy #fantasy #books that someone should totally write because I would like to read them while seated in a massive Victorian era library, puffing my best bubble pipe and intermittently polishing my monocle while my pet miniature giant tortoise snoozes by the fire. Constructs and Confit - A golem and a sexy mechanic start up a fancy restaurant. Wyverns and Wagons - A gothic lolita dragonkin and a punk angel set up a delivery service and cart repair shop. Bifrost and Bacon - An ice giant who likes warm weather and hot chocolate and a pacifist Valkyrie start up a BnB. Roombas and Rootbeer - An anthromorphic roomba and a sassy vacuum start up a milk bar. It doesn't suck. Mazes and Macrame - A minotaur and a snarky kobold set up a craft shop with the sign 100% BEEF on the door. #sff #bookstodon
