Summer and survival
It's summer at last (after a very long, cold, wet winter). It started on Monday officially, and in reality. We've had five successive days of hot sun, surely a record. And today I heard the first cicada of the season. Ahhh, I love cicadas.
And it's the weekend, which means something now that I have a job. Yay! I've been so busy all week, I've neglected this. But I am working on something B7-y to post to make up for it.
There was a fun survival quiz on![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
astrogirl2's blog, so I did it as myself, Avon, then Vila.
As myself:
Civilized (Wo)Man
Congratulations, you
have all the signs of an innate survival
instinct. Unfortunately, though you may
physically be able to smell trouble, you don't
always have any practical idea of what to do
about it. I would suggest never leaving the
house and avoiding bed-bound octogenarians with
suspiciously long teeth who attempt to engage
you in conversation.
How's Your Survival Instinct?
brought to you by Quizilla
Yeah, that's probably about right.
As Avon:
(Un)Natural Predator
Mankind has already
fought its way to the top of the food chain,
are you trying to make an entirely new entry at
number one? Your friends may not survive you.
On the plus side, Darwin is firmly in your
corner and, as he's already dead, doesn't have
any real worries about waking up suddenly
limbless.
How's Your Survival Instinct?
brought to you by Quizilla
Hmm, that's surprisingly accurate.
As Vila:
Walking Chipmunk Chow
You tend to wait to
see what other people are doing before
commiting yourself, and rely on the kindness of
others, divine intervention and vague hopes for
the best. You probably don't even carry shark
repellent bat spray regularly. Evolution saw
you coming, my friend. And laughed. Like this.
Ah hahahahahahahhahahahah. It probably pointed
too.

Oh, poor Vila! I'll look after you, but I doubt it'll help much given my result.

I just tried it for Stark, who is apparently also a civilized being, and, just for the heck of it, for Scorpius, who got:
Compulsive Survivor
It's not so much an
instinct as a paranoia with you, is it? Be
honest now. You sit at home reading books on
how to make emergency batteries out of lemons,
don't you? The first stage is admitting it, and
that it's okay. Try getting out without the
sharpened machete and 120lb backpack crammed
with dry food sometime. You'd be amazed who'll
finally be willing to drop the restraining
orders. Keep the Shark Repellent, though.
You're probably pretty ruthless. We like that
in the insane.
