Ailuros, the Emperor of Omorfa, and Dimos, his attendant and right-hand man 🍇

When Alexios returns to his homeworld with Cassius as Adastra’s new ambassador, they face a new political climate and a new Omorfa united under Ailuros’s rule

Another Ailuros…

This time it’s more stylized… This is one is a small doodle of an ailuros praying to omnipotent God, asking for dear mercy. This is one of my favorite pieces, quite funny that a doodle can turn into something close to a masterpiece XD.

the ailuros are one of my favorite close-to sapient creatures that do “pop” in my head.

On Monsterfucking and Homosexuality

Oftentimes I find myself under the impresssion that hets will find some celebrity or family member coming out as gay as "depriving" them of something. Depriving them of relatability, fantasy, children, etc. The list goes on, really. In some cases, the sense of loss and disappointment is so big, the heterosexual party feels as though something has been "taken" from them. It's why they fight so hard to oh, I don't know, claim that Freddie Mercury was bi or het for starters. I also believe that in some cases, the heterosexual party believes that their beloved, heterosexual child/partner/celebrity was "corrupted" by an "outside influence" and would not be gay otherwise. How foul, they find this demon. This monster. They believe in the heterosexual "purity" of someone they claim as their own, and instead harass and abuse and frown upon the "outside party." For the purposes of this essay, the "outside party/demon/monster" will be a person.

To that end, I find the monsterfucking genre to be inherently homosexually coded in nature, the same way vampire stories very literally represent women's repressed sexuality (If anyone has any posts about this please let me know so I can reblog them) and I also find forbidden love to be apparent in both genres and a genre inextricably linked to homosexuality in and of itself. I digress. In the monsterfucking genre, the human represents the budding homosexual. The repressed. The one with everything to lose. In return, the monster represents those of us who have been damned, cursed, and driven out. The societal other, and the one who has already "lost". The taboo nature of romance with a monster is tantamount to the panicked realization of a homosexual's affections for a member of the same sex. Especially when you add sexuality into the mix, both the increasingly erotic memory of an encounter mixes with the excitement, fear, and shame of committing a taboo act, elevating the eroticism of the story and highlighting the importance of that connection. I find these themes to be incredibly effective and apparent when used to highlight the shaming of oneself by his/her closest people, the shaming of oneself by ones society, the fear of being found out, the thrill of participating in something true, and more. Finally culminating in the relief of being able to come into the light with your other, without shame or regret- with embracing arms of those you hold dear; acceptance.

Truthfully, I relate to these stories in some regard. The fear, the mental rejection of the apparent truth- the denial- the urge to fit in, to be kempt and dignified as deigned by something with no physical body. Something impossible to break down and tackle on ones own, and an oft lifelong battle with the help of others like yourself. To this end, I find the monsterfucking genre to be an effective tool to relate the homosexual experience (both good and bad) in a concise manner, as well as completely cathartic.

Time Travel Cat Jon AU trivia :

The Archives team names Cat!Jon 'Ailuros', the Greek name of the Egyptian goddess Bastet, the cat-headed deity of home and family.

Do you see my vision.

in the process of questioning whether or not I'm antisocial, I sometimes go back and forth on the whole "lack of remorse" thing. I know it isn't a universal antisocial feature, but I'm aware it's not only common, but also more prevalent among antisocials than narcissists (perhaps related to the fact that most prosocial narcissists--despite not sympathizing much--are still very shame-prone).

but then I remember that I literally don't feel bad in the slightest when I manipulate people. I recall once trying to date someone for drugs (despite being aromantic and disinterested in RL romance) and only stopped because I realized there were easier ways to access safe supply (didn't go through with anything, ultimately; still sober).

at the time, I didn't feel bad at all for misleading him, and I still don't feel bad in retrospect. I'd do it again, if I ever feel the need. I can't recall any other instance of dishonesty that made Me feel even remotely remorseful, either.

now, I don't necessarily consider deceit to be immoral (IMO, it depends on whether you're doing it to get a need met/get by or to actively hurt/take autonomy from others), but I know most prosocials don't agree with this.

by the standards of, say, the DSM-5, saying "the way some people manipulate is bad, but I'm doing it ethically" would be considered "superficial rationalization." a pro-lying moral compass places squarely outside of the range of prosocial morality (excl. instances of hypocrisy and cognitive dissonance OFC).

honestly, one of the reasons I've questioned if I really lack remorse is because I believe I haven't really done much of anything to anyone that warrants guilt, but considering how guilty prosocials often feel about everything, that in and of itself perhaps confirms a lack of remorse.

not only that, but in addition to My commonly indifferent and/or justified stance on My own behavior, I notice I also veer often into sadism.

most of the time, this is more about witnessing than perpetrating. for instance, when someone does something embarrassing, I oftentimes enjoy the feeling of laughing "at" them more than laughing "with" them.

in one case, however, I recall sending a hate anon to someone, and it was so fucking great. their blog centered around praising a known child predator and they outright said about his scandal that he was "just like" them, so I doubt I'm alone in saying that this was a justified suibait, but I enjoyed it so much that it triggered a narcissistic high for the rest of the night.

oftentimes I still find Myself fighting the urge to send vile messages to people who haven't done much wrong--who just annoy Me or disagree with Me--just to experience that power trip again.

I love the thought that I can have so much power over other people, that I can destroy anyone (physically, emotionally, spiritually) if I ever wanted to; I have both the self-restraint and the petty vitriol to do so, after all.

but of course, I know this is bad: I know that I shouldn't hurt people just because I can, and I know that it's just as satisfying (although in a different way) to be beloved for My kindness as it is to be feared for My cruelty.

but at this point, it's pretty safe to say that I'm not a very remorseful individual.

Custom design, new rumiu just dropped! This girl is the second to be inspired by rhodochrosite, because Primrose happens to be the twin sister of another rumiu you might have met before, who's of course based on the same stone! This baby belongs to Annabelle-Ailuros ^v^

Rumius are an original species invented and managed by us; small pets inspired by crystals! She's of the Ruby morph ❤️ (despite the morph's name, not all rumius of this variety need to be linked to actual rubies).

To know everything there is to know, you can satisfy your curiosity by checking out the Rumiu Genalogical Registry (where you can see all the rumius existing and their info) and the Species Sheet (to learn about their biology, diet, and much more).

[terra-tortoise]

áine -- searching for a cure to the plants growing inside her lungs (500g)

ailuros -- bound to a spectral familiar who urges her to enact vigilante justice (500g)
