moodthemeinayearIt's the beginning of Part 3, and I'm behind on so many things, but so help me, updating this community will not be one of them!
This week's Minimum and Medium moods are: Angry, Awake, Confused
This week's Maximum moods are: Bitchy, Cranky, Cynical
And we're off with more derivatives of Angry! I tend to rely on word bubbles with cartoon symbols and other methods of expressing "This entity is complaining loudly" for Bitchy. Cranky, meanwhile, reminds me of toddlers who didn't get their afternoon nap π So heavy bags under frowny eyes works pretty well for me! Cynical, I think, is probably the hardest to depict of this particular trio. For my fancy rats, I made it a companion to Optimistic and Pessimistic, with the rat pushing over the half full/half empty glass; my pigeon is rolling its eyes. My cloud, meanwhile, has an expression of just being Done With Everything. So those are some potential options for you, and if none of them fit, hopefully one sparks some inspiration for you!
What about you? How do you think you'll approach this week's moods? Are ideas coming easily to you, or do you need a bit more help? Some of each? And did you have a good break week? Let's talk about it!

Date: 2026-04-11 02:27 am (UTC)Bitchy - This is Riker in Chain of Command having it out with Captain Jellico. I'll spare you a recap of the entire scene, but at the end of it Riker calls out the bitchiest little "you're welcome" that always makes me grin.
Cranky - I forget the context of this one, but I think I grabbed it from Parallels when Worf is annoyed at being thrown a surprise party.
Cynical - TNG is generally one of the least cynical shows out there, which is why I love it, but Ro is an exception (understandable, given her back story).
