Spooky Spite

An important update:

Due to a specific person being a complete child, comments are going to be screened by default.

This is only temporary, and I apologize for the inconvenience- this is going to be a pain in the ass for me, too, but multiple people have come forward about fears of doxxing, and this is the only way to make sure any doxxing is contained.

(This basically will force the doxxer to make a DW account to post any doxxing attempts unscreened, and will let me more reliably report them to DW staff/authorities.)

Again, I apologize, and will be working to unscreen comments as fast as possible, but I'm only one person.

(Vasemod has had some personal issues come up, so I am the only mod atm. Please bear with me until this bit of annoyance has passed.)

Ammonite themed, but ammonites aren't even snails, they're cephalopods, literally WATER THEMED. Tho, they are ancient, so I guess that's something, but they aren't extinct. Imo, the Cambrian era critter one should've won over that.

Minor nitpick, ammonites are extinct, its nautilus that aren't. They look similar but they're not even all that closely related! Nautalis are kind of their own weird group, meanwhile ammonites are more closely related to other extant cephalopods (squids/octopus/cuttlefish)

Ammonite shells are one of the go-to ways to depict fossils, and fossils are a pretty common motif in earth so its still fitting imo. I mean, the earth exalt pillar even has ammonite impressions.
