I don't know if I remember how it was said, but there's a saying in Irish "Coinníonn cloigíní iarainn na cinn ghránna as" Something like "Iron bells keep the sly ones off" It's why some family have a habit of sticking bells over their doors to make sure no one who walks through it is there uninvited, like a faerie with exception to brùnaidh.

Just a note for those who picked the rust chair. As Yuuzo stated briefly, fae have a weakness to metalic objects. It isn't just fae. All etheric beings have that weakness. In the etheric spectrum, iron has a habit of collapsing patterns of etheric energy. (We use it in occultism a lot for that reason.) Meaning it works against ghosts as well. (That includes folkloric vampires, who did not have a physical body. Closer to the real thing.) The thing is, hitting a ghost or demon with iron will just send them back to their 'spawn point' (Their body, or astral space) when they reform. With fae, it will downright kill them. Since they're the true etheric natives. Demons and humans simply overlap into the etheric, metaphysically speaking. The question you need to ask is how the hell did they get a metalic object in the etheric spectrum to begin with? Maybe it's just been made to look like iron. Or maybe it is, and you aren't in your physical body anymore. In which case, you will be inconvenienced. There's layers to these things.
Likewise, in regards to the offerings of the fae, be particularly weary of wheat, or anything made from it. It will prevent you from ever getting back, because you will be grounded to their world. The same thing (Allegedly) happens if they eat our wheat.
Chocopyro @chocopyro Yeah, thing about folklore is, it's an effective way to preserve a lot of esoteric lore. Real fae of course don't entirely match 1 to 1 with mythology and folk belief. Still, it's not based on nothing. Sometimes superstition of later years pile up the distortions in what may have been practical advice, and a lot of things are based on a flat out lie, But take a look at this video. Know that his target audience are those in the practice. Notice how the subject matter is treated. Like they've already accepted that they're real, and that magicians bump into them on occasion. They need it with the superstition removed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=scRdZkjNyCg&t

Uuuuu, your voice is just fine. Especially trying not to draw too much attention. Though the reverb is a bit bendy. Are you recording in a bathroom?

I'm not a singer...so I'm sorry this sounds horrid XD. It didn't help I was nervous when recording this either and excuse any weird microphone sounds (Edit: And I'm sorry Yuu-chan that it's not on a proper karaoke site. I didn't want my family to hear me singing a full blown song XD) >w<
https://voca.ro/12E46XHZXhvF
Rose Mommy ® @wei_ying Nope, I was in my room. I was using an app for the echo effect, and thank you! You're too kind about my voice XD, yours is really pretty as well
yuuzora @yuuzora Ah, I can understand. I use a bit of reverb also just to make up for the flat acoustics. Is there any songs you want to try together? I can splice them or maybe we can harass one of the others on here to do it for us. >)
Do you know any sea chanties? I think I know a few hymns but they're either in Irish or Latin.
Rose Mommy ® @wei_ying I only know a bit of the Wellerman song, but I can easily learn that. I don't listen to music much so I'm sorry I don't have many options D':
yuuzora @yuuzora Ooo, the Wellerman is a good one. I'm still learning it in English. So we can learn together. What's your range. From what I heard you might be lyrical alto. I'm a lyrical soprano. :)
Rose Mommy ® @wei_ying I don't know my range? I don't pay attention when I sing XD
Rose Mommy ® @wei_ying And I don't know voices like that and how to tell what I fall in
yuuzora @yuuzora I can help there. The basics is that SATB is the range of singers from Soprano(very high, usually women) Alto(high mid, usually women) Tenor(Mid low, usually men) and Bass(low, usually men). The lyrical and coloratura are the flow of a person's voice. Lyrical is more to flow, 'flitting like a butterfly' and coloratura is more solid like a stream of water. :)
Rose Mommy ® @wei_ying Ah? Then is lyrical alto a specific type of alto or what? I don't know how to word it, I'm sorry XD
yuuzora @yuuzora Yup. Lyrical alto is a low female voice that has a light tone. The beauty of sea chanties is you can sing any part you want. So you can sing what you know first and I can harmonize if you feel comfortable with that. I've been working on translating the Wellerman, oddly Wellerman is the way Ires and Cockneys say "Whaler men". XD
Rose Mommy ® @wei_ying Woah, that's so interesting! You know some stuff about music, did you grow up with it a lot? And if I am a lyrical alto, does that mean my voice does better with lower notes or what? I'll try to find time to sing somewhere in my house (hopefully) and I need to read up on the Wellerman. Do you want me (if I'm able to get to it) to add a little beat with my hand? Like thump on something or will the music be added later on?
yuuzora @yuuzora You don't have to, but if it'll help you, that will be okay. As both Irish and Japanese, both those groups have strong roots to music steeped in the culture. Irish people have great rhythm and Japanese have good 'tonality'
Lower notes are usually more comfortable for altos. So basically the part sung by the rest of the crew is going to be alto. You can sing whichever solos you want. I like them all, so it won't matter to me. The beauty of sea chanties is they're super loose and easy to have fun with.
Rose Mommy ® @wei_ying I want to try and do it, it's just my house is sadly not big enough to sing anywhere quiet or private XD, but I'll try to find space and record a few lines or something? Heck I can even sing the whole song and you can take away or add something to it (if that's possible?) And that's such a beautifully interesting mix you have ^^, I meant to tell you my eldest sisters said you sounded beautiful when I described you once in passing
yuuzora @yuuzora E. I can at least sing in tune, though my rhythm isn't great. But we can do just a small portion or you can split the song in half. I'll probably end up recording in my car when it gets a little warmer. Even in there is better acoustics than my house. lol. I'm lucky I live on a quiet street.
Rose Mommy ® @wei_ying I'd say I live somewhere quiet...but if it's not my family and I being loud it's definitely the gunshots and sirens XD. It's okay, Yuu-chan, I feel like my rhythm and tuning is off lol, I think you do really well from what I heard
yuuzora @yuuzora Your tuning sounded fine, it was more the acoustics. It's why you felt you had to add so much reverb. You want to try finding that reverb naturally. Basically any room or space with enough smooth/non porous surface like tile or wood. The sound bounces so you can hear yourself and sing more in tune.
Rose Mommy ® @wei_ying Ah, I see. My house is funky shaped anyhow...so maybe that doesn't help anything either? XD
yuuzora @yuuzora I'm gonna run experiment tonight recording in front of my window. I've heard the reverb is not too bad if you sing close to a closed window. I'll let you know how it goes.
Rose Mommy ® @wei_ying Okay, Yuu-chan, thank you!

If you were walking through a nice park and saw three paths ahead of you, which would you choose:
Mossy path. I'm a sucker for ravines, rivers gorges, and rugged trails. Though not going to lie, all three paths sound like they have something for me. For example, might be fun doing some randonaughting on the gnarled path.
5. What if if you did turn back, the park was not what you remembered it to be?
Stay calm, Get out of my head, and try to orient myself to physical sensation. Open myself spiritually after I have been grounded and get a sense for what is in the area. If I can't detect the presence of fae or elementals, and if everything reflects physical reality, and not some wierd liminal overlap between physical and etheric, then it's a matter of finding a river and following it to a road or civilization.
If I do sense fae fuckery, then lock onto them, and just kinda be like "I know." I don't care what steps out of that bush, be it a dog man or a pale crawler. I have some tricks of my own.
Chocopyro @chocopyro It will likely be fast food chicken nuggets if anything. Trail food can get expensive. Could always forage if I need to.

Missed this one, but it also sounded fun. 1. Do you read manga?
Yes, but I haven't for a while.
2. Have you ever read a full color manga?
No. They have those?
3. Do you read in several languages?
My Hirogana and Katakana are rusty.
4. Would you rather be a haunted potato field or a haunted peach tree?
Peaches, if only because they are more abundant in etheric energy, thus the spirit would have something to subsist off of other than me.
5. Have you ever been stabbed?
Yeah. Not Maliciously, but yeah. Like, a lot.

I'd love to be brutally honest, but I can only do brief snippets at the moment (Two rambunctious kids are keeping me occupied.lol). However, I'll gladly do so in a bit, if you'd like. Really, unless you see obvious flaws, it's all you and in a sense, that's best.
yaasshat @yaasshat I get it.
Let me ask you this...
How're you hoping to come across?
yaasshat @yaasshat Really, I think it just depends on what you're truly looking for from this site. You come across very matter of fact, which isn't a bad thing, just a very cut and dry thing. Ain't gonna lie, you've got a pretty face and you can amp it up with a smile or better ambience, think the Christmas one, just add a smile. People want to feel welcome, friend or otherwise. You give a ton of info about yourself, maybe a touch to much. Mental health is something that those who get to know you will learn, but unless it's immediately pertinent, I'd avoid that. You don't want to come across as broken and needing to be fixed. This whole thing is like a resume, but it can be condensed to give a highlight of what's most important. Honestly, it's very decent compared to most, it just needs a few tweaks here and there. But, I don't have a profile (Ain't what I'm here for.), so what do I know? lol
yuuzora @yuuzora Ah, yep that makes perfect sense. Thank you kindly. I didn't realize I would come off as broken to an extent, that definitely attracts white knights... As for my pictures, I'll ask my sister about taking some better ones. I'm very bad at taking them. Like, toddlers take better pictures. I really appreciate your help. Thanks again. :)
