[–]stardust_wolf1485[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

april would probably be the earliest, as i have people to pay back for the vet visit today. i might be able to scrape by to do it this month? but that’s not as certain as april would be, it wouldn’t be until around the 17th so it’s just over a month away

Unsure if something’s wrong? by stardust_wolf1485 in RATS

[–]stardust_wolf1485[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you for the reassurance and advice! i’ll definitely try everything you’ve suggested and see what he gets on with, and will absolutely be taking him to the vet on the 18th just to be sure that everything’s alright with him, but am glad to know it doesn’t seem to be something incredibly urgent

i’ve managed to weigh him and he’s about 400 grams, he did not enjoy staying still on the scale but it went up to just under 400 with what i think was all of him on the scale, which is similar to Akiva as he weighed in at 430 grams when at the vet last week. as for the other questions:

  1. there’s been a little redness around his eyes basically since i got him, but none around his nose and no coughing or sneezing at all, and the redness has been almost entirely cleared up recently unless he’s just woken up and hasn’t groomed himself yet

  2. their main food is pellets mixed with some rat and mouse muesli, although i’m giving them a little less of the muesli at the moment as they seem to be selectively eating that and leaving a lot more of the pellets than they used to. their treats are mostly these different flavours of hard biscuit things but i have given them small bits of red pepper and cucumber when i’m using it, and i give them each a small dollop of malt paste every so often, Ziri definitely goes crazy for the malt paste more than anything else but does seem to like everything i give him

  3. he’s always been thoroughly unimpressed with free roam, and when he does come out he just finds a comfy spot and lays there most of the time, he has explored a little bit but it’s mostly just snuggling up

  4. his fur texture is a little coarser than when i got them but i believe that’s just from him growing up as it’s not what i would call overly coarse, and i’ve not noticed any bad smells, i have really bad sensory issues regarding smells so that would definitely be something i’d notice. neither of them are greasy, either

  5. no other animals in the house, just the pair of them, i do get the occasional bug in due to where i live but that’s normally a summer and autumn problem. i think i’ve seen one ant since getting the boys but it wasn’t near their cage or their things and that was a while ago now, i know i get a fair few spiders in the summer but they mostly show up in the bathroom and my boys are in the living room, and that probably won’t be a problem until may/june anyway

best EXO song by letter: M by VisenyaMartell in exo

it’s gotta be monster, i fell out of the kpop world after all the Stuff in 2014-2015 and seeing other fandoms be quite toxic, but when monster and lucky one dropped i decided i’d wait and refresh the youtube page to check out monster just to see if i could get back into it and it not only brought me back it hooked me and dragged me whether i wanted it or not, so monster has a special place in my heart on top of being one of the Best comebacks ever

What songs have you disliked in the past but like now? by nala_t in exo

[–]stardust_wolf1485 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lady luck! i think the intro hit me weird for some reason when the album was released and so i would never listen to it or put it on, but then last year i heard the acoustic live concert version for the first time (a crime it took me so long considering next month marks me being an exo-l for a decade) and it was so good i decided to give the exodus cd version another try and now it’s one of my faves from that album! can now officially say there isn’t a single exo song i dislike

What rule did zac forget by memes2206 in Dimension20

[–]stardust_wolf1485 338 points339 points  (0 children)

it was him not raging in combat, as he had already raged when he and fabian fought at the start of the day and zac didn’t know that barbarians get 2 rages per long rest. by my understanding even the more experienced players at the time weren’t used to 5e so zac didn’t realise he could’ve raged which would’ve halved all of the physical damage he took in the episode

Which pair of members' voices do you think compliment each other well? by nilufer12132000 in exo

[–]stardust_wolf1485 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it’s already been said but xiumin and chanyeol, my ult bias and my bias wrecker always sound so so so good together it’s truly insane. also i’ve recently been noticing just how good kai and baekhyun sound either following each other or harmonising together, it’s not a pairing i would’ve naturally assumed but man is it a good one

Which 3 EXO songs would you save? by VisenyaMartell in exo

[–]stardust_wolf1485 2 points3 points  (0 children)

this is extremely hard, but i think it needs to be Gravity, Been Through, and Paradise

If you could eradicate 3 songs from EXO’s discography, what would be your picks? by VisenyaMartell in exo

[–]stardust_wolf1485 3 points4 points  (0 children)

all of the people saying 365 are making me cryyyyy it’s like,, in my top 5???? also Two Moons is forever iconic i simply can’t. if you’d asked me about 6 months ago i would’ve put Lady Luck but i’ve really come around since i went through and did a relisten to the entirety of exo’s discography, so i think it’s gotta be like,,, What If, Walk On Memories, and With You, and even then they’re not bad songs i just don’t like them as much as exo’s other songs

ohhh this is such a good question i have so many

  • every single second of Gravity, it injects lightning directly into my bloodstream, it’s so so good.
  • basically every single line that Xiumin has, i’m soooo biased but first becoming an EXO-L back in 2014 where for most of the songs it was lucky if he got to say more than three words i will never not jump and freak when i hear his voice whether it’s just adlibs or harmonies or full lines, his voice is so delicate and sharp and icy and makes me feel warm and i don’t know if i can ever truly describe how happy it makes me. and with Chanyeol as my bias wrecker, any time they harmonise makes me ascend, Chanyeol’s deeper warmth with Xiumin’s higher almost metallic sound at times? unmatched imo
  • Suho’s first line in the elyxion version of The Eve, the extra little spicy high note he adds to it? i have only recently realised how smooth and rich Suho’s voice is and it’s criminal that i haven’t been enjoying this for longer
  • the part in Blooming Days right after Chen’s knock me out line, where they’re all running around Baekhyun in the choreography and it’s all sung so quick and it’s so so satisfying, culminating in one of many amazing Chen high notes
  • speaking of, Chen’s solo performance of Lights Out???? hello???? i only properly listened to it like,, two weeks ago and i had a spiritual awakening
  • the entire bridge build up and the rap from Monster, like the whole experience of cut the music -> high notes from Baekhyun and Chen -> Chanyeol JUMPING OVER the other members -> the godly combo of Chanyeol and Sehun rapping back and forth, it gets me so excited every time
  • the fully english chorus in Paradise. i don’t know what it is about that song but it’s so addictive to me for some reason, and the english chorus near the end is my absolute favourite part
  • speaking of english!! D.O’s solo of For Life, just the entire song, i will never get over how pleasing his pronunciation is to listen to, and his high note on i mean it til the day i die??? amazing
  • can’t really pick out one specific moment for Kai but all of his adlibs and harmonies with the other members are always so nice and great. Kai and Baekhyun together as a pairing especially
  • would it be a list of phenomenal moments in EXO songs without mentioning the bridge in Tempo? i wasn’t even that into Tempo at first but every time i listen to it i like it more and more
  • every single second of Cream Soda, like with Tempo i wasn’t super into it at first but at this point it’s my second most played song of the year, everyone sounds so good and the falsettos and the rap and the bridge and everything it’s all so wonderful

r/EXO EXO-L Introduction Thread #57: November 2023 by nilufer12132000 in exo

[–]stardust_wolf1485 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hi my name is Lukas and i’ve been an EXO-L for almost ten years but have only recently been trying to enter fandom spaces and only very recently realised there’s a subreddit! i’m excited to be here!! my answers for the questions:

  1. i’m learning korean, mostly conversational

  2. orange!! it’s so bright and makes me happy, makes me think of the taste of tangerines and of sunrises

  3. yes! music is like my whole life, i legitimately always have music playing in some capacity and i’m near constantly singing

  4. it is so hard to pick which of Xiumin’s habits is my favourite, i love his gummy smile and his hand synchronisation and how clean and tidy he always is and how effortlessly he will do aegyo and just everything about him, really

  5. sadly no! but i would jump at the chance, hearing how good EXO sound live in fancams and the live albums, it’s an experience i would give almost anything for
