Mrs. Baird in the fields 🦊

It is safer to take the two chaos bebes out for walks at dusk or dawn. Less prying eyes, less judgmental glare but more safety. That’s all that matters to her, Clementine and Janus having a as its possible normal childhood.

This fits both into the GooseyGrayAU and FurbalAU, genuinely love this piece and love drawing (or perhaps painting?) these sceneries. 🍂🍁

THIS✨IS✨AMAZING✨

OMG I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS!!! Love the way they look in your style especially their faces! Holy moly I’m in LOVE 😭✨💖 I‘m bad in interpretation and telling how I see things but it looks like they are the colorful centre of the chaotic world they live in, fox and hound loving each other despite the odds of it working. The outcasts of their upbringings q0q

FOXIES BUSHY TAIL 🦊

I‘m genuinely not able to comprehend how much this has me in awe. Also I‘m so glad u love this AU!!

Thank you so much for this piece

Hi! I made a small art in my style based on the AU of the artist @maysrinn . I absolutely love this AU, and I'm looking forward to new works, so my fan art:

I remind: character designs belong to @maysrinn !!!!

This is how they sleep, screw beds and comfy pillows or blankets this is all they need òwó Tail floof, it’s comfy, it’s warm and it’s momma!

No they do have beds but ever since having the pups Lucy Gray sleeps like this, shes more comfortable this way and who is anyone to judge her. Coriolanus is a bit impressed as he gets back pain from it XD

this is what coyote Billy Taupe would had loved to have, not my fault that he sucks ass

The furBaird Family 🦊

Lucy Grays late fuzzy family!

Her momma, Adelynn Blue, and her daddy, Vincent Yale, both her older siblings Olivia Pine and Brody Green. Although not much older, Olivia Pine and Brody Green were from the same litter as Lucy Gray, with Brody Green being the eldest and Lucy Gray the youngest and weakest, often referred to as the runt. She is the runt of the litter. Due to that Lucy Gray was smaller than her siblings and often babied by her mother because of it, receiving more rations and always put under an watchful eye as her mother who worried about her more than her reckless siblings. They got watched by Vincent Yale don’t worry Ever so often both Brody Green and Olivia Pine teased Lucy Gray about her height, though Olivia did so gently with lighthearted jokes, while Brody often went too far. Her mother often telling her that she will grow up to be tall and strong if she eats and sleeps enough which Lucy Gray always replied with a „Otay momma“

It gets dark———

Despite the teasing, Lucy Grays petite stature ultimately saved her life. When peacekeepers hunted down the Covey, her mother hid her in a tight space, instructing her not to come out no matter what. She didn’t witness the tragedy , but she heard it all—the shouting and rifle shots, the screaming and pleading... noises that never left her memory, she fought the urge to call out for her mother until everything went quite. Adelynn Blue Baird lost her life being shot by peacekeepers trying to defend and protect her babies.

Lucy Gray was later found by her Aunt Lorelei Maroon waddling only a few feet away from her mother and siblings, praying to god that she didn’t found or noticed them

She did

Meet the PUPS! ✨💫

You thought Fox Lucy Gray is smol??

Let me introduce furball AU Clementine and (Se)Janus, who fit each into one of Coriolanus hands

Both Clementine and Janus are from the same litter. I was considering giving them some more same-age siblings, but in that scenario... RIP Lucy Gray. They are tiny compared to Coriolanus but above average for Red Fox standards. Girly was STRUGGLING T^T.

Both of them will show some of their Borzoi traits later in age but as of right now they look like normal fox pups 🦊 Rosie will be the one who has most of her fathers physical traitmarks!

Not in size tho

[maysrinn]

the height difference with your fox drawing of lucy and coryo is killing meee. SHE SO TINY

Oh yes, she is quite small indeed! It amuses Coriolanus to see how tiny she is, and he often teases her about it. For example, he has to pick her up so that she can reach things or give her a kiss. It's almost like he has to squat down instead of just leaning down. Lucy Gray doesn't like it very much, but if she needs to see or reach something, she climbs him like a pole, which saves her more than just her dignity.

✨Fun fact✨ she aint even the tiniest of the group! Besides the pups who don’t count Maude ivory is actually the smallest member of the covey with only half the size of Lucy Gray. A well known ankle biter with a big dream of growing maybe a few more inches.

Let the hunt BEGIN 🦊

momma Lucy Gray

World-building and lore time!

————

I aimed to include a more primal element into the Furball AU. Hunting for food has become uncommon in this society. Many canines have either forgotten how to hunt or never learned, particularly those from the capital who regard it as something wild and uncivilized. They view the act of walking and stalking on all fours, only to suffocate or break the neck of their prey, as primitive. Such behavior is deemed a district-specific practice, serving as yet another rationale in their eyes for the pinboard to justify the games. The frequency of this hunting technique varies by district and is less prevalent among dogs compared to wolves, coyotes, or foxes.

Adjusting clothes are required or no clothes at all (its fur don’t worry) for the amount of physical activity. A skirt or dress would be in the way and higher the risk of stumbling and falling.

Coriolanus views this situation akin to any pampered poodle from the Capitol: "Why should I do this if we have guns?" He regards it as a primitive, beast-like activity. Meanwhile, Lucy Gray finds herself needing to remind him daily that they lack guns or the resources to alleviate hunger through other means. She may not appreciate the situation, but as a new mother, she's determined to provide for her family because, in her eyes, Coriolanus is utterly useless in this regard.

Does this assist her in the Hunger Games? Yes and no. While she can’t manipulate herself into hunting down tributes like rabbits, pheasants or other rodents, as her mind cannot be deceived in such a manner, her astounding stealth ability enables her to evade danger and hide in small places especially from coral. Despite her small size, this skill proves invaluable in the arena. So smol 🥀🦊
