I thought that rub-rub stopped being a reproductive method and just became the paralel of giving hugs and stuff....i barely remember any "newer" work on which rub-rub = babies, usually it's a form of affection now a days...
Well that's one of the few ones i barley remember, and i still think it's for the best to drop out Rub-Rub = Stalk.
It makes a contradiction for when the babies rub-rub and the parents rub-rub and babies and parents rub-rub without making babies, better leave it as their paralel for hug.
Or we can just force Yukkuris to believe that Rub-Rub =/= Babies, usually Yukkuris work using belief to make things a reality....at least in how ther bodies work, we know how their belief to be superior to humans clearly doesn't work....
In some ways they are. They are born with the ability to talk and have a sizable vocabulary. And to get food all they have to do is go into the forest and catch some bugs and flowers. Humans, on the other hand, take years to properly grasp language and build up their vocabulary. And they spend 1/5 of their lives in school just to be able to make a living. They also suffer from a host of physical and mental illnesses. I'm sure there are a lot of humans who would trade in their hectic existence for the chance to be a yukkuri. Heck, many already are. Look at how fat and stupid people are getting, and look at all the social propaganda encouraging people to take it easy and forgo any commitment to excellence.
As for the rub-rub issue, parents rub-rubbing with their children and not making babies makes perfect sense. Children aren't physically mature so doing rub-rub with parents or with siblings won't results in pregnancy.
Well Sun, there is the case that Toawa showed us, and either way, i kinda prefer the idea that Stalk or Mammalian is random and depends ofthe author's appeal, or the theory that depending of where the refresh takes place, defines if a stalk or mammalian pregnancy takes place.
Rub-Rub for me, had become the way yukkuris show affection, and doesn't work anymore as a reproductive method.
And by being superior to the humans i mean in the way they care, being able to talk is questionable, but in ther rest, they just can't be better than humans, they can't be stronger, smarter or more capable than humans.
Their only "advantage" over humans is to learn to talk faster, but the point becomes moot when their inteligence makes one believe that they waste the ability to speak and it may be better used with other way more intelligent and worthier animals or monster fauna.
Uh-huh, uh-huh, until you damage or misplace your accessory in which case your family will disown and savagely murder you. And if your family doesn't, everyone else will.
And if you are lucky about not losing your accesory, you may end up facing shitheads that will kill you, rape you and steal your easy place and mister munch munch if you aren't strong or smart enough, in yukkuri standars, to face them off.
Then there are the times you may try to take over some mister human place only leading to the mister human maiming you, same if you are a gutter trash that after a long season of ripping open trash bags, you may get a visit of mister exterminator, or you may be kidnapped by an abuser, squashed by a hater or just taken for studies by the factory.
Now depending of your types, you may end up being discriminated by other types, maybe you are a Nazrin, Nitori, etc. and the Common Types label you as uneasy, steal your stuff and kill you.
Yukkuri life, Ironically, isn't easy, which many times makes me think that their obsession with taking it easy, is a natural instinct meant for them to treasure every little small moment of easiness in a life so full of uneasiness and hardships, but of course, since a great deal of the yukkuris are trash, shitheads or normal to trash, that obsession becomes a quest to find the most selfish and self gratifiying way to take it easy forever, not realizing that won't work and sooner or laters something will take away that easiness if they can't do it in a non selfish way.
wanna see how much you would be able to take it easy when i take away and destroy your accesories, and burn your feets?
Also if you are bodied, it will be seen as bad as not having accesories, since yukkuris consider being bodied yukkuri = uneasy.
The life of the yukkuri, stopped being easy after they left the ancenstral way of taking it easy, now they are cursed to take it uneasy while being obsessed by the need of taking it easy.
Then why are you in a cage right now with no way to get out? uh? anyway, excuse me while i go to take it easy to my easy place while you rot on the cage! Taa-taa!
Not too bad an idea, actually. I've gone ahead and registered #easychannel on rizon. It'll be a wasteland for a day or two, I'm busy and can't be there much and I need a day to figure out all these options... I wonder if I could set a deibu bot, or if that's not possible on rizon...
I think I'm going to be chasetised when I say this but...........................I'm thinking of making real Yukkuris with agar jelly,gelatin, manju buns, diffrent fillings,sugar, cloth,a oujia board,ghost/sprit of a dead person, and other things. I'll make the yukkuris diffrent sizes and types and then get the oujia board and get the ghost'sprit to possess the unliving yukkuri and hopefully it will come to life and I'll then sell it, there's a lot to go through I need to sort out the whole rub,rub, stalk birth and the whole penipeni, mamu,mamu birth as well....please don't hate me for this
