#because xe's hairless

[uss-sonder]

Realised too late that the Sonder's design is illogical. The nacelles and warp core point in the wrong direction.

Redesign ideas + the original beneath the cut:

^ the original design

^ potential redesigns... she might get a saucer section after all.

Tell me if you like any of the redesign ideas, or if you have your own!

[phaeton-flier]

guy is isekai'd into the furryverse, gets bullied for looking like a furless weirdo (nobody has met a human before and refuses to believe that this is just what some species look like) but xe is inducted into the valued-yet-feared caste of sphynx cat of cleanroom workers (only sufficiently hairless folk can work in chip fabricators),

OK, this is good enough trolling.

Hmm, I assume this universe doesn't have primates of any kind, or else the resemblance would be more obvious. Would evolved furries have the sorta-self-neoteny that humans have? Come to think, would they also have the flat faces? Like that's a thing in humans because there's a max size of head given birthing canal width, and presumably furries have humaniform hips, etc.

Queen of the Dead (Pt.1)

-------------------------

"No you go first!" Helena pushed her friend's arm slightly, laughing as they sat on her bed.

"Ok- promise you wont laugh?" Bones (he picked the name himself), looked nervously at Helena for confirmation, Helena gave a slight nod.

"I have a qpp-" Bones replied, shrinking back slightly.

"Why would I laugh at that? That's great!" Helena said, giving him a slight punch on the shoulder.

"I uh- tripped over a trash can, nearly spilled their lunch, and managed to get hot soup on my pants immediately after asking them-" Helena had to bite her lip at that one.

"You said you wouldnt laugh!" Bones pouted.

"I'm not laughing! I'm not!" Helena replied, desperately trying to hold it together.

"You were going to! I can tell!" Bones said, now barely holding back his own laughter.

"What! You have to admit it is kind of funny," Helena said, covering her mouth as she relaxed.

"Ok- fine, maybe a little funny," Bones said grumpily.

"So tell me about them!" Helena said excitedly.

"Short, blue hair, cutest chubby cheeks you've ever seen- gods I could hold their face in my hands all day- brown eyes," Bones said.

"Oooohhhh! You mean Honey!" Helena said as the peices finally clicked in her head.

"Yeah! I thought you didnt know each other?" Bones tilted his head slightly.

"Not well, they help me in Japanese sometimes," Helena replied.

"Oh- yeah I think they mentioned that, they dont blame you, they had the same issue learning english," Bones continued.

"So are you going to tell me what you did or are you gonna keep putting it off? Did you murder your husband or something? Are you a tragically widowed old rich lady now?" Bones laughed at the look of annoyance on Helena's face.

"For your information, no, I did not murder the husband that I have yet to aquire, I got a tattoo," Helena said, turning around her back was facing her best friend.

"No way! You told me you chickened out!" Bones said, looking at the skull, roses, and wings now permanently staining Helena's pale skin.

"If I remember correctly, you were the one who wanted to chicken out," Helena said.

"What? Nonono they just didnt have good enough colors, I'm not a chicken!" Bones said, pouting.

"Bones I told you, as long as you get a more vibrant color itll stay, I mean cmon light colors wont even stay that easily on my skin, and you once lost me in a snow storm," Helena replied.

"I'd probably have lost you in a bath and body works to if we could have gone to the mall," Bones said with a laugh.

"Ew dont make me think about that! I may be basic but I'm not that basic!" Helena giggled, running a hand over her strawberry blonde pixie to fix the red headband she'd tied in it.

"You cried because they ran out of your favorite Starbucks drink once," Bones said sardonically. Helena let out a whine.

"Alright you two! Dinner time!" Helena's mother called from downstairs.

"Coming!" Helena said, hopping off her bed and racing downstairs.

"Oh sure, leave me here, I'll be fine," Bones said sarcastically as he got up.

"Its Spaghetti Saturday! I cant just wait!" Helena replied.

"Ok like- you're so white that I'm surprised hanging out with you for ten years hasnt blinded me yet," Bones replied as he sat down next to her.

"Oh shut up and eat your twink worms-" Helena said.

Bones had just brought the fork to his face before he burst out laughing. "T-twink worms????" He said as he tried to catch his breath.

"Yeah! They're skinny, they're hairless, and they look like worms!" Helena said.

"Helena all worms are skinny and hairless," Bones said.

"Then all worms are twinks," Helena replied.

"If either one of you brings a raw chicken out to prove a point I'm banning you from talking in the dining room," Helena's mother said as she sat down.

"Ma'am please dont give her any ideas," said Bones.

"Hey! If I want to put a chicken corpse on the table I'll do it!" Helena said. Her mother let out a sigh.

Bones and Helena raced back upstairs immeadietly following dinner, Helena pulling out her laptop as soon as she got on the bed. She pulled up Skype and clicked on one of the side icons, waiting to see if her friend was available before calling.

It took a few minutes before she got a response, but xe had initiated a call almost immediately after.

"Hey Rue," Helena said as the mess of dark brown curls popped up on the screen. Rue's hair was, as usual, pulled into a ponytail, not that it did much for xem, since it was already so thick.

"Helena, hey, big news, the biggest news," Rue said as xe looked into the camera.

"What is it?" Helena said, foot shaking slightly from where it hung off the edge of the bed.

"TWO new sightings since yesterday! One of them a full bodied apparition! Can you believe it!" Rue said excitedly.

"Completley? No smokey limbs or anything?" Helena asked.

"Full-bodied! No missing anything!" Rue said, clapping xir hands together and letting out a small squeak.

"And what about the second one?" Bones asked, leaning his head on Helena's lap.

"Just a head, it kept chanting, I think it was french?" Rue said as xe twirled a strand of hair around xir finger.

"Ooohhh! French revolution ghost! But why would that be in America?" Bones said, raising an eyebrow.

"Haunted object, curse, really dedicated arch nemesis, who knows," Rue said.

The trio kept talking about ghosts for a while, and then it was time for Bones to go home.

"I'll see you at school tomorrow!" Helena said as she closed the door.

"Dont get hit by a bus!" Bones replied with a salute. Helena laughed as she closed the door.

"Helena dear?" Her mother said from the living room.

"Yeah mom?" Helena said, turning on her heel.

They waited for a while

"Its- nothing- nevermind- go on to sleep," he mother said, Helena merely shrugged and made her way to her room, staring lazily at the glow in the dark painted stars on her ceiling as she drifted off to sleep.

Important OC ask: what does your OC smell like?

There have been a lot of great OC Ask posts circulating, but how about THIS one?

What does your original character smell like? And why?

You wouldn’t think this would be terribly important, but think about it. It informs not simply on your OC’s personal hygiene, but on your oc’s environment. What do they do regularly and who they do it with? There’s a lot there!

And let’s not forget that there are individuals and creatures who rely on smell to identify your OC!

So share with us what your OC smells like, and WHY they smell that way! We’ll all learn a lot!

I was tagged by @sleepswithvillains, thanks!!

I’ll tag @swtorcompanionsgoofin​, @0hmydeku​, and @sunsetofdoom​ if y’all want to! And anyone else who wants to, ofc!

Reykal doesn’t wear perfume, really; she smells of her work and her ship - leather, sweat, metal. Alcohol, some nights; she never was good at moderation. Blood, occasionally, when a blaster wasn’t enough to get the job done. She claims not to be bothered by the smell of sweat; considering that her nose is keener than a human’s and it would be harder for her to ignore it, she probably isn’t lying. (That’s why the soap she showers with is mostly unscented, after all.)

Catch her at the right time and you might catch a whiff of something else - candle smoke and incense, floral and green and heady. She’ll likely brush you off if asked, and the scent doesn’t cling to hairless skin as long as it would cling to hair, but it’s there - Mirialan incense. She burns pinches of it during prayers and rituals, taught to her by her Mirialan father - not enough for others in the ship to smell it, but enough that it lingers in her quarters for a while after.

Zavi very much does wear perfume, when xe can - rich, dark, elegant, and expensive, as all things Sith should be in xir opinion. Patchouli, citrus, amber, Kaasi spice - balancing on the knife’s edge between too much and just enough, hedonism and indulgence. (Though xe knows when to tone it down for xir audience.) Just because xe prefers such expensive scents doesn’t mean xe doesn’t come home smelling of smoke and plasma burns sometimes, of course.

Xir soap and shampoo are also somewhat expensive, but less dramatic at least - citrus or vanilla blends usually, something warm in tone but still simpler and more relaxing. Xe usually showers in the evening, part of xir winding-down-from-whatever-chaos-the-day-consisted-of routine, so that works best for xir - xe doesn’t need something to hype xir up again. (Same story with bath oils, which xe also uses fairly frequently when xe has the facilities to do so available.)

Eye study with all my canon SWTOR OCs. Minus one because I still haven’t played any of the Trooper storyline. Otherwise known as “Dragon Has Ridiculously Specific Species Headcanons.”

From left to right, top to bottom:

- Garen’ishta (Twi’lek): I tend to give Twi’leks slightly larger, rounder eyes, to play into that “Twi’leks are seen as more conventionally attractive on average than other races” thing - though it’s not always visible in my art. I also headcanon that while Twi’leks are otherwise hairless, and don’t have eyebrows (though most have eyebrow-like markings), they do have eyelashes - because Ryloth is a desert planet, and dust is a problem.

- Erisine Ganne (Human): The most “standard” out of all of these, with most of the variation being in eye shape. The most notable thing is that she’s one of the only ones who wears eyeliner and mascara and whatnot.

- Zashiil (Zabrak): Zabrak have eyelashes, hers are just sparse enough I didn’t bother drawing them. She has fairly rectangular eyes, and Zabrak do have hair, so they also get eyebrows.

- Duserra (Zabrak): Very similar to Zashiil - intentionally, because they’re sisters. She also has the rectangular eye shape, and bushier, less maintained eyebrows.

- Alivar Candessan (Mirialan): Mirialans are very similar to Humans in terms of face structure; he mostly just has more noticeable crow’s feet than the others because he’s older than the rest (has to be, to be Reykal’s father).

- Reykal Candessan (Togruta): Togruta are the only ones who don’t have eyelashes at all, or only have very sparse lashes - grasslands have less of a dust problem than deserts, and they’re a hairless species, so. Reykal also has monolids and epicanthic folds (which isn’t a Togruta thing, it’s a familial thing). If her eyes ever look weird in art, that’s probably why; I’m still figuring out how to draw that eye type properly.

- Zavi Akros (Sith pureblood): Sith purebloods have eyebrow ridges instead of actual eyebrows. I also headcanon that the skin on their faces is thicker/less delicate than that of most humanoid races, so xe gets extra folds around xir eyes compared to others of xir age to make up for that and allow the same amount of expressive movement. Xe’s the other one who wears makeup on a regular basis.
