Muffin is a chinchilla, and she's a bit over a year old now. They are native to South America and used to be made into fur coats. It takes about 300 Muffins to make a fur coat, so the wild population was really taking a nosedive before breeders figured out how to breed them.

The biggest roadblock in breeding chinchillas, btw, is that they are such divas that they would rather starve than eat suboptimal pellets and hay, and prospective mothers' standards are even higher.

@calamitycastle The harder one is basically Doc Ock as a sith lord. Imagine: Soresu with 6 lightsabers.

The easier one is similar in spirit: mad scientist lawyer. Gold breastplate under a pinstripe suit. Sunglasses with scanning equipment. Lots of little details like that.

General vibes, really. Heroic arthurian knights, mythic quests for noble heros, restoring a rightful heir to the throne who magically has both fantastic administration skills and a good moral compass.

The main plotline is an interpretation of the Merovingian Dynasty conspiracy, just to give you an idea of what's going on. (According to some crackpots, the Priory of Sion is a secret organization to install leaders into world govs who are literally descended from Jesus Christ.)

Long story. When I was a kid, I found a cool semi-epistolary 8-book series at my school library about a modern-day kid named Pendragon hopping through a portal to save alternate timelines. It was so cool to me that the series jumped around in time so we had to figure out when we were in Pendragon's timeline. Turns out my school shelved them in alphabetical order, and they also lacked the first and last books. I had a blast & I've been trying to recreate that experience ever since.

Fun story about that: last week, Muffin was running around on our futon enjoying being somewhere she wasn't supposed to be, when she suddenly turned around, looked me dead in the eyes, and made a face I can best describe as "toddler pooping in diaper". She left a wet spot there as big as her that soaked all the way down to the mattress, which thankfully had a waterproof cover.

No. Everywhere is the bathroom. Especially for girls; girls sometimes express their displeasure by spraying urine at you. Muffin doesn't do that, though.

She actually does not like being pet. She tolerates it as part of interacting with her humans, and she will climb all over me if able, but touching the royal person is usually forbidden. What she wants here is to be let out for floor time!
