Here's a small diagram I made to help me find my way around the Seven Waves, The home of my sharkfolk friends. 🦈✨

I'm still unsure which English terminology would be ideal: Residential, Building, Towers, Complex? Which would be best to use?

Here's a really bad video I made so you can see the model better. At some point I'll redo this drawing without the 3D model to make it look like a building map pamphlet or postcard.

washing the other's hair

giving a massage

reading with legs stacked on top of each other

swapping clothes

casually bringing their favorite snacks without being asked

comfort when upset

sharing secrets

putting their necklace or bracelet on for them

caretaking after a bad day

making eyecontact and immediately smiling

confiding in one another

casual touches and hugs

knowing the other's tells for being stressed and immediately working to help them calm down

Reliquaries aren't expensive (5-10£ each, or fancy ones are more like £20) but trying to buy a dozen (or more) of them obviously adds up fast.

So, if you can afford to buy your own reliquary, please do! This kind of thing, the kind that can be hung on a nail:

(If you can't afford a reliquary, just use a little plastic baggie or a bit of folded paper. I found these ones at HolyArts, there is also a shop called Eden, both online and reasonably priced, but anything between about 2cm and 12cm diameter can work)

MOST IMPORTANTLY: YOUR FIRST CLASS RELIC - YOUR GREY HAIRS (Head, eyebrow, beard, body, anything is welcome!)

Optional to Include:

- A name if you want to have a name included, or an attribute if you want an attribute instead (eg "The tall" "the poor" "the Czech" etc).

- A second class relic (a scrap of fabric, a bead, a bit of lipstick on a napkin) and the explanation of the second-class relic (eg "This is smudge of glitter from the eyeshadow I wore at Pride in 2011")

My first reliquaries (empty) have arrived, ranging from about 3cm to 11cm... Now to get a ribbon in my typewriter to make the labels.

They're going to end up looking something like this:

I don't plan on "antiquing" any of the theca, but some of them might end up using empty pocketwatch cases, so will be possibly a bit grubby to start with. They're going to look as much like "real" relics as possible, and they'll be hung around a central certificate explaining them.
