#also my color hcs (they arent that wild)

*cracks my fingers* i apologize for the wall of words, birds are a huge special interest of mine so, you asked for my headcanons? you're gonna get them.

alright, i have put a LOT of thought into this. you ready?

hunter - first and foremost, he needs to be a bird of prey/raptor. while i believe all of the batch could be a bird of prey, i feel like they could also fit other kinds of birds. hunter, though, due to his specific modifications and proficiency tracking and hunting people down needs to be one.

vultures are the only birds with a sense of smell, and it is exceptional. it fits with his enhanced senses, and i feel his whole personality. they're soaring birds, saving energy by using the winds currents to move them, and can fly for long distances with very little effort, and, as a whole, tend to be some of the highest-flying birds.

so i think that hunter has the wings of a cinereous vulture. their wings are pretty large, and their colors range from a rusty, dark brown to black.

crosshair - okay, come on. crosshair's whole thing is his eyesight. of course he needs to be a bird with great eyesight. and what birds do something most others don't? owl. they have great vision at night, large eyes to let as much light in as possible so they can see.

so, i thought to myself, what owls have similar colors to cross' silver hair? there's the snowy owl and the northern white-faced owl, of course, but i'm a little selfish. so... sooty owl. it's a species of barn owl (which aren't true owls, actually. they arent closely related to true owls but i digress.). they have these wonderful sooty gray, speckled wings, and have the added bonus of flying silently, a feat no other birf can do. and it fits him being a sniper, the speckling breaks up his silhouette, and the silent flight lets him disappear.

wrecker - wrecker doesn't like heights. this is a fact. so i feel like he needs to be something that can fly, but not very well. he's also a fighter, physically strong, but is also caring and sweet.

so... what fits that... oddly enough, a rooster! they're bred to fight (cock fighting), with these huge spurs on their legs, and while they arent the best fliers, they can and will attack and kill anything they don't like. but theyre also protectors, they protect their flock, and can bond easily to people, and make great pets.

okay, so what kind of rooster? wrecker is bright, he's loud, he's energetic, he needs wings that reflect that. there's the domestic chicken's wild cousin, the junglefowl, but i think a domestic works better. brahmas and cochins are some of the largest breeds of chicken, and cochin come in a variety of colors. brown and red fits him, which have these lovely black iridescent feathers to boot.

tech - me 🤝 you with hc him to have magpie wings.

magpies are a species of corvid, arguably one of the smartest groups of birds aside from parrots. they are capable of learning, using tools, remembering faces and teaching that to other generations. they're scarily clever. and magpies are flashy, just like tech is. he likes to show off, his knowledge, his skills, his flying. magpies are also flashy, physically, and collect things, just like tech collects scraps and projects.

but there are so many species of magpie, how can i pick one? well, i already have. the common magpie. they have these beautiful black, iridescent wings with these bright white primaries, the colors seem to shift and change in the light, and magpies have a mean streak during certain seasons. tech can be... snippy.

echo - two things. echo needs brown wings, like the regs. echo also loses one wing and gets a cybernetic replacement, so he can't fly anymore but he can glide.

that being said, i feel the regs are all some sort of hawk or buzzard. the same kind. the same kind a jango fett. it only makes sense, they're clones, unmodified clones at that. jengo fett's actor is from aoteara (new zealand), and what's one of four endemic birds of prey there? the new zealand falcon. they're falcons, so quick, efficient, and range from solid rusty brown wings to barred gray-brown wings.

that fits the minor variations that clones can have even unmodified, and gives each clone their own little unique attributes, as no matter how hard the kammies try, each one has their own unique, but similar, wings. so, since echo is (was?) a reg, he gets the same wings. i feel his fall more on the gray-brown end of the spectrum.

omega - she's blonde. she's bright, she's bubbly, she may or may not have the force. she's a spot of light in an otherwise dark universe. so she needs bright wings to show that.

there are many species of white birds, there a few species of yellow birds. there are even less species of white and yellow birds. it would be so easy to phone it in and make her a white dove, epitomes of peace and whatnot. but thats not fun to me so...

i know she needs to be a species that are smart, as omega, while naïve, is scarily clever, just like her brothers. and what's a smart, oft mistreated as pets species of birds? cockatoos. she's 100% a cockatoo, they're loud, funny, can be super sweet, but also throw tantrums and talk back, and they're clever little buggers too. but what kind? there's the umbrella, goffin's, moluccan, citron-crested, sulphur crested, some morphs of cockatiel all are white... but no. she's a ducorp's cockatoo. small, cute, but just as feisty as their larger cousins. they're smart but become extremely fearful due to trauma (...tantiss...). their wings are white but when the light hits them just right, you can see a beautiful, soft yellow there, too.

happy life day. welcome to my brain vomit.

aight. birb wing au, what're y'alls species/general headcanons for the batch.

personally as species go:

Hunter - Kiwi. Small, brown, fuzzy, can track things (fruit) really well. Also can't fly so it gives Wrecker a reason to toss him around. (Bonus points for being from NZ)

Wrecker - Harpy eagle or cassowary. Harpy eagles are the strongest bird of prey, they can carry off sloths. Maybe even a toddler. Cassowaries are big, scary, and flightless, which accounts for the fear of heights.

Tech - One of those iridescent magpies. Super smart and likes to collect random junk. Will do completely random stuff. Very neurospicy coded. Tech definitely collects shiny objects and will probably eat random stuff he finds on the ground.

Crosshair - Peregrine falcon or something. They're cool. Why didn't I go with a vulture? CAUSE I DON'T WANNA DRAW ALL BLACK WINGS. Super speedy AND has the fastest vision in the animal kingdom at 130 frames per second. For reference, a normal human is 50-60 fps.

Echo - sorry echo stans, I got no clue what he is

Omega - for some reason I see her as a pidgeon/dove. Small, innocent, just a lil birbo. Can be a nuisance if they don't like you, perhaps even deadly.

My only real idea is CROSSHAIR WITH CLIPPED/PINIONED WINGS. LIKE HEMLOCK DID THAT TO HIM. It's pretty low effort, will be really traumatizing, and makes escape attempts easier to catch.

Anyhoo. *makes grabby hands* Give me your headcanons.

[unironicduncanstan]

total drama / darkest minds au

some ideas ive got going for my au cuz im an angst lovign fuck,,,

so if you havent seen the movie or read the books the rundown is, every child/teen on earth starts gaining powers or (more often) dies in the process, their powers correlate to the color their eyes glow whenever they use it, government decides to put survivors in camps, story follows runaways, angsty YA dystopian adventure stuff ensues!

the main characters+powers i thought out so far are

courtney is green (supergenius)

duncan is blue (telekinetic)

izzy is red (pyrokinesis/fire breath basically)

gwen is yellow (electrokinesis/can manipulate electricity)

heather is orange (mind control/memory manipulation)

cody is also a blue but he cant control his powers very well yet and duncan is,, Not very excited to train him

i was thinking noah could be a sarcastic ass green and at first nobody even believes him when he says hes green bc every single smart comment is filtered through a layer of sass but when he starts putting effort in he actually becomes a good asset

timeline;

in the actual story theres quite a few big escapes from the camps so i imagine them all leaving at various points and finding each other later on

duncan and gwen (the two goths) team up in the escape and izzy finds them and kind of just,,,, doesnt leave 

same with cody and noah later

finally theres courtney, who escaped on her own way before any of them did and shes doing jUSt FIne until they all infiltrate her hiding spots

and then theres heather who,,, they want to keep around bc oranges are considered in universe to be the strongest/most dangerous but they start to regret that decision, really fast,

backstories; 

courtneys so smart that when she developed her powers hardly anyone noticed a difference. she only got caught when the govt really started cracking down on survivors

as soon as duncan got his powers he immediately started using them to get into trouble and thought it was pretty cool actually till all the government takeover shit started happening. in this universe parents are heavily encouraged to turn their kids in when they get powers and since his parents were cops (something im dragging into this story too) he just decided to run away from home, and still ended up getting caught bc again, he ca nnot stay out of trouble

cody got his powers while he was bedridden with the flu, so it was a pretty uneventful time but he thinks thats why his powers turned out so weak and hard to control

izzys so wild that her parents dont pay a lot of attention to her anymore (a hc i have for main universe izzy too r.i.p.) so her situation was pretty much the same as courtneys, no one suspected anything till govt officials showed up at her door and she blasted them out with a fireball

heather was actually the most freaked out by her powers and pretends to embrace them now because she likes the control aspect of it, but deep down she wishes she had gotten literally Anything else

gwen was also freaked out by her powers, she couldnt use any electronics without frying them and (much like the main electrokinetic character in tdm) had to wear gloves for a while to avoid destroying everything

noah just didnt. really care till he got to the camp and constantly got in trouble for mouthing off to the guards (greens have to do forced labor and arent even allowed to make eye contact with guards, you tell me that little twink wouldnt have his feet up on the table and be sayign shit like ‘since im so smart ive decided that this is bullshit and you should be working for me’)

relationships;

yall know i hate all the love triangle stuff so i just imagine duncney, similar to how it happened in tdi aka slow burn annoyance that turns into ‘oh no s/hes hot’

gwen and courtney are tight af bc thEy DesErVe ThaT FrIEnDSHip ,

izzy is also somewhat in the gal group and heather woudl rather die than associate with any of them

duncan is (begrudgingly) training cody to use his powers better so theyre,,,, al most fri en ds? ?

noah is more tight with these people than heather is but in a similar boat where hes just kinda. along for the ride and doesnt rly want to get close to anyone,,, feel free to turn that into a slow burn noco thing at your own discretion,

anyways thats all i got rn i wish i had the energy to write a fic or smth but i gotta get school done first so please humbly accept what my brain has compiled

[supportive-rat]

7. Favourite class trial from all the games: hmm… I’m gonna cheat and name multiple!! I remember really liking chapter 2 from sdr2 because I liked all the characters involved and twilight syndrome murder case was cool, and basically chaps 4 and 5 from all of them because what the fuck

8. Least favourite character: teruteru makes me so uncomfortable, sorry if you like him but like, stop harassing women gremlin fgjhgfhnnbh his execution was satisfying (also haji who he doesn’t exist pls)

9. Least favourite class trial: I don’t love the chapter 6/final trials from any of the games that much? I ended up getting into them eventually!! but my attention span kinda didn’t care about reading all the exposition worldbuilding stuff at the end, esp for ndrv3

10. What would be your Ultimate Title: shsl lesbian. shsl dumbass. shsl gender confusion. shsl what the fuck. shsl croc wearer. HFJHGFN NO FOR REAL I’d probably like to be the contortionist or actor? idk I’m untalented

34. Best character design: this is tough because character designs are like my favorite part of all the games and I think they nail almost all of them!!! the first one I thought of was chiaki, because I think it suits her personality and purpose for being created really well. it looks like someone chihiro would design, the colors are soothing and I feel like I can hug her 

36. Character who looks amazing but you don’t like: himiko and kirumi you’re gorgeous but kinda boring and undeveloped I’m sorry-
