#I can't even think of any canon merperson art

[misc-obeyme]

Are there any mer people in canon? I haven't played in a while, welp there be a merperson now

OC rambling time again:

Como, pronouns are tur/turtle/turtles/turtleself

Tur is around 50mil y/o

Como is the royal head of basically a group of misfits and outcasts, got kicked out of your original group because you're queer? Como is adopting you now, same goes for like orphans

Como knows not of this "gender" thing, Como just is, Como is genderless, tho fem presenting

Long green hair, yellow eyes, white tail with purple fins that are so pale it's almost impossible to tell them apart from the white, skin color depends on lighting which can range from a pale blue -> white -> white but in human

Also the reason why Como's pronouns are tur/turtle is because that's turtles favorite animal

I don't think so? I can't remember any merpeople. It's possible there have been some in events that I missed in OG, but otherwise I don't think there are any!

Ahh I do enjoy a character that adopts all the wayward others. Como sounds excellent. Taking care of all the lost lil merkids!

Normally I'd say wow 50 million years old that's crazy, but since we're talking about an Obey Me OC... I mean, we don't know the canon character ages, but I don't think I ever thought of them as quite that old? So Como is up there lol!

What’s an unlikely hobby/interest you think your twst faves have? :o

Oooh what a fun ask! Thank you for this, Blue :D I couldn't answer sooner because I was busy visiting my siblings and their partners, but I am here now! 💜💜💜

Idia Shroud: cosplaying; specifically, I think posting cosplay photos online. Idia is a shy boy, cripplingly so. But, he loves video games and anime with a passion; one that allows him to at times override his own anxiety and become very outspoken and even participate in things he normally would never be remotely interested in. It's not a stretch to think he would cosplay, but it is unusual for him to want to post any photos online. I think he would still be too nervous to have others associate the cosplay account with him irl, so I think he uses a fake name, and only posts the cosplays he's certain cannot be linked back to him...the ones where either he is wearing a TON of makeup, or his face is covered. And Idia is a perfectionist/child prodigy. These costumes are Top Fricking Tier.

Azul Ashengrotto: poker. I know, he gives off mafia vibes, he gives off vegas vibes; why would I think poker is unlikely for Azul, but still one of his interests? Well, Azul does give off the vibe of a mafia boss and, like a mob boss, he does not like leaving things to chance. At all. Based off of Ursula, the sea witch, he makes deals that have high stakes, and he likes to have everything calculated so that he comes out a winner. He will, of course, be willing to take a small loss in the interest of "playing the long game" and coming out on top overall, but that's because he has planned it to be so. He does not like guessing; he very much likes to be in total control of a situation. There's tricks you can use to mostly come out on top, but in poker it's never a 100% guarantee. Still, I can't help but think poker would have an allure for him. Honestly, my headcanon for this game is he tried it once, got his ass kicked by Floyd who never seems to think about the long-term consequences of anything ever, and got so angry about this that he continuously played it when he had time prior to bed in an effort to "improve" for the next six months until he was so used to the game that playing it actually became a bit relaxing for him. He pavlov'd himself.

Jade Leech: I'm not sure if there's anything "unlikely" for Jade; he really is the kind of person that's like "try everything at least once and keep an open mind"...but if I had to pick the thing that I would be a bit surprised to hear he enjoys, it would be video games. Jade gives off the air of someone who would much rather be in nature or be enjoying an art museum, and he canonically is the Only member of the Mountain Lover's Club and goes on camping trips by himself for fun. But I do think he would be able to appreciate the quality and art of a few video games at least, and would potentially enjoy the ones that allow the player freedom to roam and do side-quests as well as storylines.

Floyd Leech: Birdwatching. If you know Floyd, you know he likes to be moving, he likes to be doing things, he's a very active person. But I think he would enjoy birdwatching. For one thing, it's definitely something he and Jade could do together and Jade would happily tell him about all the birds they see, and for another, birds are rather fascinating creatures. Canonically being a merperson and coming from the Coral Sea, I do think Floyd would find birds and their habits interesting. I also think he'd like looking for the different plumages and maybe even make a game out of finding the rarest ones he could.

Thank you again for the ask, this was very fun to answer!!!
