You throw a bag of puppets across the street and run awau from the scene of your crimes. The smell of burning felt chases you just the same as the mob yelling incomprehensible words from another language. Just as the bag is crushed under the wheel of a fordnsedan you hear it: "STINK CRIMES."

WHEEZE

the puppets are just skeksil, skekzok, and skekok, they’re all fucking bastards and deserve a stink crime or three

[angorwhosebabyisthis]

a big skeksis mood

doodled a human!ok in the night, from me and @nerv-s au; meet oliver! he may not be as sexy of a librarian as he thinks he is, but he is a cute one. i'll have to draw more of him and some other human designs later.

some dark crystal gender/pronoun headcanons (an incomplete list, in no particular order):

instead of ‘pronouns,’ the commonly used term on thra is ‘self-words.’ this is because most of the population seem to be illiterate, and probably wouldn’t much care about academic words for specific grammar structures. the term ‘pronoun’ exists, but it’s considered overly formal and you would have to explain it to most people (who would then look at you funny, because why do you need another word for self-words, it serves just fine for the job).

seladon, rian, mira, and kylan (among others, but they’re off the top of my head) are all binary trans.

brea is genderfluid, toward the femme edge of the spectrum.

seladon and brea are drawn to the skeksis in part because their relationships to gender are all–to put it bluntly–queer as hell, in a large variety of ways, and the two of them feel a kinship and fascination with the lords over it.

tavra is transmasc-adjacent nonbinary–masculine, but not male-leaning–and is fine with she/her pronouns. probably the only people she’s really articulated this to at all are her girlfriends, onica and tae.

the skeksis aren’t the only ones who tend to avoid pronouns to refer to each other; gelfling do so as well, because to use the wrong self-words for a lord of the crystal would be a grave insult, and most of the skeksis don’t really care whether gelfling know their pronouns as long as they’re not using the wrong ones.

all of the skeksis and urru are nonbinary except for skeksa and ursan, who are (what would be the gelfling/human/etc equivalent of) binary trans women, and skekekt and urutt, who are binary trans men.

skekso is agender, with very strong femme leanings. she uses he/she/they pronouns, and leans just as much toward ‘she’ as ‘he.’ prefers feminine gendered terms, where used.

skeksil stole the genders. all of them. and cranked the saturation up to make them as obnoxious as possible. uses he/she/they, and associated gendered terms, interchangeably and with glee.

skektek is bigender and uses he/she/they. doesn’t like gendered terms; they lean more toward they/them because binary pronouns make them antsy in situations where they’re not 100% sure they’re not being gendered as one more than the other. lots of vague screaming about orifices and ‘where the fuck did i put the gender this time’

skekok is agender with vague masc leanings, uses he/they, and prefers not to be referred to by gendered terms unless he’s using them himself as a joke, or to manipulate ('how could you be so cruel to a poor old man!’). his gender is masc, but like, the la croix version, which he discovered after spending enough time around gelfling to know that he doesn’t much care for being called 'she.’ someone gently dipped a gender in a glass of water the next room over and skekok went 'ah, yes. perfect’

skekvar’s gender feelings are mostly [elevator music], and if you asked him about it he’d just give you a blank stare. that said, he’s spent enough time working with the gelfling military to associate he/him-only folks with loyal, life-giving service to a Strong Femme Ruler. as a result, he uses solely he/him pronouns, not because he presents masc or has any particular attachment to gender, but as a sign of devotion to skekso. skekvar’s gender is gay, pass it on

skekzok’s gender is Evil Pervert. he seems to be fine with he/him. no one is brave enough to ask him for more information

skekung uses he/him and she/her, enjoys gendered terms, and doesn’t really use any nb-specific labels other than a general��‘nonbinary, i guess,’ if asked. she’s strongly a man, strongly a woman, butch as hell, and loud as fuck.

skeklach is transfeminine and a demigirl; they go back and forth over the trine between using he/she/they fairly evenly, using she/they only, or using mostly she/they and being a big shrug about the he/him while not being a fan of it in particular.

and more, which will probably come in a later post since this one is incomplete and off the top of my head

i love having this many canon nonbinary characters to play with

they’re queer and you can’t stop them

27+49 BreaOkTek

honestly there are a lot of ways this could go, but the one my brain immediately zeroed in on was brea asking skekok if they can get pretend-married to flex on seladon, to which he says yes because she’s too cute to turn down and also he’s a petty bitch who thinks it’s hilarious

brea then proceeds to develop a deeper, more genuine bond with not only him over time, but skektek. her relationship with skekok is in a very weird hah-jk-unless gray area that’s neither explicitly platonic nor romantic (yet), whereas with skektek it’s more mutual pining that neither of them has quite admitted to themselves is anything beyond friendship (also yet).

then, during a trip back to ha’rar--which she was supposed to take with skekok until last-minute business kept him at the castle, and instead is accompanied by skektek 

(who did not want to be left behind, and who despite their anxiety about the world outside the castle has been trying to prove to themself that they are brave enough to deserve brea’s love, they’re not a coward)

--something goes wrong, and tek is badly injured. at the citadel, on the all-maudra’s orders, the guards refuse to allow brea into the infirmary where a lord of the crystal is being treated or update her on their condition, princess or not.

in a moment of panic, the only thing she can think of to do is to blurt out that she’s married to them as well. everyone is caught off-guard and skeptical to say the least, but in the end it’s got enough precedent that they decide not to risk the wrath of either the scroll-keeper or the scientist for keeping her out, and they let her in. 

cue brea staying by them and comforting them while they’re delirious, in pain, confused about where they are, or otherwise distressed. they say things while they’re out of it that catch her by surprise, and make her start to realize that not only are her feelings requited, but that she has Feelings in the first place.

by the time skektek is healed enough to travel back to the castle, brea has filled them in on the fake marriage, and they’re playing along to the degree that they grok the concept in the first place. gelfling are already so goddamn weird

skekok meanwhile is just surprisedpikachu.png when brea sheepishly comes home with a whole ass new spouse, because it’s way too late to set the record straight with the other gelfling now. [yakkety sax in the distance]

(at some point, way down the line, skektek gets up the courage to ask brea if she would have actually married them.)

(the answer is yes, if they would. so is their answer to that.)

'it's probably kinda problematic to consistently interpret nonhumans as nonbinary, especially villains, but the facts are i'm nonbinary and i love and relate to them and nonhumans are badass' continues to be a fandom mood

Character asks for The Dark Crystal AoR. Favorite thing about: SkekTek, unpopular opinion about: SkekSil, and favorite picture of: (your choice) SkekSo or SkekZok? :3

favorite thing about them [skekTek]:

i love this terrible funky little pear so much, but i definitely think one of the things i love most about them is that they’re a survivor of ongoing abuse who is a vibrating ball of rage who knows that what’s happening to them is wrong and they hate it and they know they are helpless anyway. they handle it in Really Horrifying Ways to say the least, but it’s a really relatable trauma narrative to me and i tend to get pretty attached to characters who embody it. 

(also their eyes are so pretty, my god) 

unpopular opinion [skekSil]:

i don’t think it’s completely impossible for her to have anything approaching a healthy relationship (romantic or otherwise), it would just take a fuckin miracle and a lot of Very Messy Work.

favorite picture of them [skekZok]:

i don’t have any good skekso screencaps on hand and i’m lazy, but this expression makes me absolutely lose my fucking mind laughing every time
