Sizapop Rizzleri

A rare Wing Alaynan plant with strange properties. The fruit it bears has a hard, clear shell that is soluble in water. Inside is a semi-sweet, fizzy liquid that will make a big splash if the fruit is dunked in hot water. Thus it is preferred to chip off chunks of the outer coating for flavoring instead of trying to dissolve the whole thing in water at once.

(The emoji is "🙃 - Someone to share their suffering with." Since it's just a box on my end I thought I'd make that clear. XD; )

Today’s flower! Finally caught up to one a day. Of course, that won’t last probably with Monday morning right around the corner, but, it’s good to be caught up if only temporarily. :)

Luna Cirrala

The leaves of the flower are more like growths from the stem than actual leaves, but they serve a similar purpose. Like many other Crescent Minoria flowers, the Luna Cirrala gathers energy from the moon and transforms it into liquid, which it stores in the bowl formed by its petals. When there is excess lunar liquid, the flower shuts to prevent waste, and opens again when the flower is not as full anymore. The lunar liquid of Crescent Minoria flowers is a coveted substance, though it is known to have strange effects on Buddys, particularly in tea. Though usually, the substance needs to be mixed or diluted if consumed, since it has an unpleasant taste in higher concentrations. At most though, the effects of consuming lunar liquid mostly include wanting to lay in the moonlight and absorb its lunar rays, and the effect is usually short-lived. Diluted, it may be known to cause dreams about Crescent Minoria or simply a longing for moonlight.

Day off today so you know what I decided to do... finish up these WIPs I hadn’t posted yet! See last time’s post for Kulikuli Dara’s description. The new descriptions are under the cut (thought I should have done this last time... what do you think? Pointless feature, or actually useful in this case? Lemme know I guess).

Myuzika

A relative of the Sweetflute, the Myuzika plant is similarly used as a sort of homegrown orchestra. The plant makes a different sound according to the color of the pipe, and pitch depends on the size of the bulb, which can be made to change over time by adjusting the plant’s environment (more sun = thinner bulb, more shade = larger one). Tendrils grow taut around the two pipes, allowing them to be strummed like an instrument. The curly tendrils at the base can also be tapped for a shaking sound as the hard berries that grow on them bump against each other. There are many other secrets to adjusting the sound of the Myuzika, but only the forest dwellers know all its secrets. The Myuzika can be found natively in the Great Buddy Forest and made to grow in other forests in Wing Alayna such as the Patchimori Forest, though it grows best in its native soil.

String’elle

Another plant in the sylvan symphonic family, the String’elle’s two base vines will grow in completely opposite directions without the help of the plant’s tendrils, which keep the plant taut in a harp-like shape. The plant can be tuned over time by adjusting various elements of its environment, but without artificial intervention it will keep its original tune, allowing the musician to play the instrument in its original form if so desired. 

Yukidamarias

A plant found in the depths of Batulia Songlianne, the continent at JI’s north pole (or Non Pona as it is natively called). It was thought for a long time that nothing grows there aside from the occasional rumor of a Song Tulip (the legendary flower for which the continent is named, though whether the plant actually grows there is somewhat shrouded in mystery), but it would seem that the Yukidamarias does as well. Of course... due to the number of odd things reported there, it’s uncertain at best whether the Yukidamarias was found actually growing in the continent’s soil, or in another dimension’s all together. Nevertheless, dimensional abnormalities aside, it may be safe to say that the legendary flower has company on the mysterious frozen continent. Being a relatively new discovery, not much is known about the plant at this time, though it seems quite decorative.

Koshio Flower

The Koshio Flower can be seen growing only during the dry season of Wing Alayna. It spends most of its time unblossomed, but when it does it produces berries that can be dried and ground to make a spice similar to black pepper. The bits that form on its stamen can also be ground and dried to create a substance similar to salt or pepper depending on its color. The same can be said of the rest of the flower. Dried, the white bits form a salt-like material and the black forms something similar to its berries, though with a slightly different flavor. 

Today's flower~ I wasn't sure I was gonna get it in today but here we are. Now without further ado.... Read on if you please!

Radiana Kandia

Native to Fuline and Reline Ah, the former being the continent of the Dancer Buddys. At certain times of the year they glow brightly yellow or orange--or sometimes both. When Kandias light up often marks the first day of the Dancer Buddy Festival on the continent. Unlike similar clear-petaled plants, the Kandia collects its energy from the stars in addition to the sun and moon. It gives off this energy in radiant displays at certain times.

My brain upon seeing someone else post a summary of art meme on tumblr: Hey, did you know you can post this on places other than dA? Me: :O No wai!

Anyways. XD Here you gooooo. A lot of this is linked in my tambles year in review so you can just scroll down to see most of them XD; But others are a bit more obscure. Keep reading for a full description of everything.
