Prompt 284

“Oh little storm,” the being cooed, hands that are both large enough to crush the world yet small enough to hold his face gently running through his hair. He was being held by lightning, by stars and space and everything in between, cradling his form like he was something oh-so precious. “A surprise to be sure,” the being crooned, purred, rumbled, cracked, some noise of the depths of space mixed with something indescribable. “A surprise, but a welcome one.” 

Billy had never felt so small, yet so loved, like the world itself was holding him against its heart as the whispers of the gods bled away in something akin to awe. The being smiled, distant storms letting loose and ending droughts, even more distant stars bursting into being. “A little marvel of existence,” they hummed, hissed, cooed, whistled, hair- or strands of galaxies- melding into the abyss around them. 

“A surprise son. A child of the Cosmos. Yes.” He was held so gently, space itself dancing and flickering around him, suns pressing hundreds of freckled kisses against his head. “Welcome home, little storm. Welcome home, my son.”

I wonder if young Kuma told the story of Nika to his fellow slaves?

I wonder if Fisher Tiger heard it? I wonder if it comforted little Koala? I wonder if it gave hope to the Boa Sisters.

I wonder if there are slaves in Mary Geoise right now, suffering and praying for salvation. All while not yet knowing that the Drums of Liberation have sounded, JoyBoy has returned, Nika is coming, and the Celestial Dragons' days are numbered.

That'll change soon enough.

OctoberChrysalis day 3 is Sacred Space represented by a celestial tigress guarding a door to another universe. I really dig these kinds of motifs and while I could draw femme people all day, I wanted to break out a bit and experiment with a big cat.

Specter...a celestial being tasked with observing the stars, they often find themselves alone in the vast emptiness of space.

They never liked the idea of space, an endless, cold, dead expanse

But perhaps he will find some meaning in studying the stars, or he will find none at all, that's ok too.

As promised, here’s a look at the Thirdverse cast’s pets! Most of the cast has a little critter to love and care for (whether it be their own pet or the family pet) and most of them should make at least an appearance or two in the story, if not more!

1, 2, and 3. Each of the SugarJack kids gets a loyal dog to call their own! All of them are littermates and Winona’s grandpuppies.  First is Winnie, Blackberry Maple’s dog who was named in honor of the grandmother she resembles. She embodies the term “stallion’s best friend” wholeheartedly, accompanying her owner on many of his travels. Every now and then he embarks on a trip that he anticipates being dangerous or generally not dog friendly, in which case he leaves her at home to spend time with her littermates. But she’s always over the moon when he comes back, as shown in this little doodle! Second is Ethel, Orchard Sunrise’s dog. Her owner has her very well trained; she knows all kinds of tricks beyond the basic “sit,” “stay,” and “come,” and is always happy to show them off. While herding was already an instinct for her breed, Orchard has Ethel specifically trained to herd the rest of her family over when she needs them to do something for her. And of course Orchard keeps her very clean and well-groomed, fit for a proper show dog! Last but not least is Fireside Jam’s pup, Wilbur! She—yes, Wilbur is a girl—was the runt of the litter, but Jammy fell in love from his first look at her. The name comes from him assuming she was a boy puppy at first, but it stuck and she doesn’t care about gendered names anyway. She has a little bit of catching up to do with her siblings, not just physically as the runt, but because Jammy is still learning how to train her. Despite not always understanding the word “sit,” Wilbur is surprisingly gentle for such an active breed, and she’s well taken care of both by her favorite boy and his parents who are still really the ones in charge of her. Jammy is still growing up, but he’ll have his dog to grow up with him.

4. Celestial Blessing may have a strong command of dark spells like nopony else, but that doesn’t mean occasional mishaps and surprises still don’t come up for them. Nothing world-ending, thankfully, but that’s how they ended up with a live, magically-created manticore under their care. Sombra is fierce and intimidating, with a sting that can paralyze the mighty, except when it comes to the little dachshund she shares an owner with. Stygian is just as judgmental as his owner, if not more. One glaring look from his piercing blue eyes turns Sombra into a frightened, mewling kitten. He has never laid a paw on her and she could physically overpower him easily, but somehow she wouldn’t dare.  Yes, they were both named after the villains that once terrorized Equestria.

5. Bismuth Sun is extra busy, and she has only so many hooves and wings to do all the things she needs to get done. Lucky for her she has a few extra hands—more than a few, actually—to help her out. Pictured here are just a few members of the colony of meerkats who assist in her daily tasks. Scheduling, packing, even basic physical upkeep, she never has to fall too far behind with them around. All of them are named after great Equestrian legends, in keeping with Bissy’s family’s values. They include Starswirl the Bearded, Clover the Clever, Gusty the Great, and many more. Starswirl is the matriarch of the colony which she rules with an iron paw (look up meerkat social behaviors to see how brutal they get), but she’s kind to Bismuth and makes sure her fellow meerkats get things done.

6. Once upon a time, Laffy Taffy had a hamster named Creeper, named for one of her favorite video games. She took pretty good care of him, feeding him regularly and making sure he got the amount of attention he needed. Plus she’s practically nocturnal like hamsters are, so they had that to bond over. But hamsters are fragile creatures, and all it took was Laffy yelling at a lagging game a single decibel too loud to give Creeper a fatal heart attack (even though he was all the way across the room from her). Laffy misses him, but she’s not going to get another hamster just to watch it meet the same fate. Instead, she has a furby to keep her company now. This furby might as well be alive with how interactive it is, especially since it connects to a video game which she’s playing in this doodle. She has named her furby Candy Chomper (AKA “Tay-boo”) and has a lot of fun with him, although she sometimes forgets to put him to “sleep” when she should and wakes up to some very unsettling vocalizations in the dead of night.

7. Alligators in captivity can reportedly live up to 70 years, so Gummy is very much alive and well. He’s definitely not a baby anymore, and his bigger size and mouth full of teeth make that clear. Still, he’s the same gator he always was, silently contemplating the world around him and eating whatever treats his owners give him. He especially loves the kids. While he may look like he’s about to eat baby Galatea in this doodle, it’s common for alligators to carry their babies in their mouths so he’s just following the instincts of his foremothers. Kind of like Galatea is his own baby! Most ponies would expect him to be very territorial if he’s claiming the kids as his own like this, but he’s happy to share them with their actual parents. Gummy’s just another part of the family!

8. Fluttershy’s bunny Angel was still alive to meet her firstborn, although by then he was already quite a bit older than most normal bunnies would live to. Like the brat he is, Angel never liked Fluttershy’s husbands and he especially didn’t like that she was “replacing” him with a new baby. No, that thumping on her pregnant belly was not the happy kind. But he managed to tolerate the toddler Tiger Lily, only giving her a couple scratches which is much less than he wanted to give. Death would take him soon anyway. Tiger loved him to bits even when he did scratch or bite her, and she was quite overzealous with her love too. Not much has changed since then, as she is the same way with all of her mom’s other pets even when some of them aren’t the affectionate kind.

9. Somewhat similar to Angel, Rarity’s cat Opalescence also had an unfounded grudge against her first (step)daughter. Diamond Tiara didn’t even really do anything wrong, but neither did Rarity or Sweetie Belle and she liked to torment them sometimes too. That’s just how Opal is. There was also a little bit of jealousy with Opal not being the center of Rarity’s attention at home anymore, and new ponies entering her territory. Diamond Tiara didn’t really like Opal in return, but at least they stayed out of each other’s way for the most part. Opal would consider herself lucky she didn’t live to meet Rarity’s actual baby.

10, 11, and 12.Tank is still very much an integral part of the Dash family, and with how long tortoises live, he will be long after Dash herself is gone. He’s seen a lot of chaos in his owner’s life, from being there for some of her most difficult moments to also just watching all the hijinks the kids get up to. The three younger kids especially love including Tank in their activities. He’s been Moonray’s fashion model, Lantern’s therapy animal, Strawberry’s spinning toy, and more. Some of it he enjoys and some of it he very much does not, but Tank is glad to be there for the family regardless. Still, the three months a year he goes into hibernation are about the only quiet time he gets nowadays.

13. When they grow up, Earth Day and Princess Cut are not the only ones to become a couple. Like a love story straight out of a fairytale, their little poodles, Peep and Meringue, also take a liking to each other. They literally pull on their leashes to see each other whenever they catch so much as a whiff of the other’s presence, and they love nothing more than walks in the park together. It’s a win-win since it also gives their owners an excuse to meet up and bond more. It was meant to be from the first time Peep and Meringue tangled their owners up in their leashes and accidentally toppled them into a lake, and the fashion disaster of sopping wet clothes was worth it. There’s no doubt that Earth and Princess dolled their little dogs up in a bedazzled suit and dress a “wedding,” almost as extravagant as the wedding they would have themselves. And of course it won’t be long until a litter of puppies is on its way~

A friend of mine has started a handmade jewelry etsy shop with a 25% off grand opening sale! I’ve included the link and some pics.

She’s trying to supplement her income with her art. The more views she gets, the higher she is in search results, so please consider taking a look at her store. 🙏

Taking the poll below the pics would also help! ❤️

She adds more every week! I hear there’s a dainty garnet necklace and rainbow tiger eye earrings and bracelets coming!

New year, new blog!

I’ve finally gotten around to setting up my art-only side blog. I’ll be sharing my illustrations here in the future, so come check it out if you’re interested! You can expect to see original art and art for fandoms like Pokémon and Animal Crossing with a focus on my personal characters.

I'm starting this blog off with one of my last drawings of 2023. I hadn’t drawn a furry since I was 13 or 14, but this design manifested itself in my gut and wouldn’t let me sleep until I coughed it up like a hairball, so say hello to Astrid! I love how she came out, and I hope to draw her many more times in the coming year.

Happy New Year, everyone!
