Hanahaki disease is a psychosomatic illness. It's a thing that your body does in response to stress over constantly repressing/concealing your feelings in settings with high background magic. It's like you've been ignoring pain for a long time and suddenly your vision starts going dark, because your affected body is just YANKING on random alerts trying to get you to PAY ATTENTION there is a PROBLEM. Yes the flowers do really exist. So do non-magical psychosomatic symptoms. The flowers aren't special.

Hanahaki, but it's a child that feels neglected by their parents.

Another public service announcement. This time it’s air quality. Some of you are probably in it already if you’re in eastern Canada, New England or New York, but it’s sliding south, a huge mass of wildfire smoke. Please be careful. When it starts getting bad, especially, like when the sky gets orange or brownish, it’s best to run air purifiers in the house and wear N95 or KN95 masks when you have to go outside.

Smoke plumes shift a lot. The further east/southeast you are from these fires, the more drastic the shifting will be. And there will always be uncertainty because ironically, smoke can make it difficult for satellite systems to detect wildfires.

female hal and male hotspur: something something girls always being compared unfavorably to boys….. girls/daughters always considered inferior to boys/sons….. it would also transform henry iv’s disappointment in hal into disappointment in having a eldest daughter at all instead of an eldest son… would also add such a different cast to the idea of hal’s independence and the fact that she never behaves ‘properly’ i.e. like everyones preconceptions of a Girl™

"When Aphrodite learned of the prophecy that the descendants of Anchises would rule the Trojans after the reign of Priam’s family was brought to an end, she slept with Anchises even though he was past his prime. She gave birth to Aineias. Wanting to create a pretext to bring an end to Priam’s family, she inspired in Paris a desire for Helen. And after he carried Helen away, Aphrodite only appeared to fight on the side of the Trojans (in reality she was encouraging their defeat) so that they would not give up hope completely and give Helen back. The story is in Acusilaus" -D Scholia to the Iliad
